The democratic papers and especial
ly the free silver organs are now ad-
hitting that prosperity Is returning,
but many of them are claiming that
tt q cause is the sudden rise in wheat,
VII Oh has Jumped up to 80 cents and
is lab e to reach the dollar mark be-

may have good effect on trade, but
there is no one thing that will bring
prosperity to country so different III
its resources as the United States are.
The reign of prosperity and the boom
to trade does not only affect the wheat
raising sections of the union, but the
whole country is affected. From ocean
to oceau and from lakes to gulf come
the good tidings of returning prosper
ity. It is the return of confidence that
has brought prosperity. People are
no longer afraid to invest; money that
hes been tied up for four years is now
turned loose: fore gn capital Is again
fl wing in aud being invested; the
balance of tt ade is at its flow and no
longer is heard in the land so much
talk of ''repudiatiOn These things
combined have started the wheels OF
commerce and capital feels confident
prises that need developing. Prosper
ity and confidence mar:h band in hand
and pessimism has stepped aside and
give place to optimistic ideas.
