Of the combinations which held the pow

local brokers as likely to prec'p.tate a

The London Times prints long letter
from its American correspondent on the
encouraging features of business in the
United States, dwelling particularly on
the rise in the prices of the securities of
the leading American railroads, and says:
I" The railroads have gone through peri
cd OF rigidly enforced economy, SO that
their net earnings are preserved, and their
gains in the gross are being reflected by
large profits. The wave of reorganization
which swept over the railway system has
also placed most of the bankrupt roads
on sound basis. The American people
may be over sanguine, but there seems to
be good ground for their present cheerful
ness" Coming from SO conservative a
source as that of the Times, the statement
is not less significant than gratifying, and
strengthens the belief that good times
have come.

One of the prominent Populist mem
bers of the Colorado State convention ex.
pressed the opinion that before the next
Presidential convention the Democratic
party would be controlled by the CAPT.
talists, and that the sole reliance Of the
people would be the Populist party. AS
things look now we should say that be-
fore the next Presidential campaign the
Democratic party would be in possession
of the Populists. That is evidently the
trend of events at the present time. All
their conventions are adopting Populist
politics and principles and surnmarily
throwing out all Democrats who are not
willing to subscribe to them.
