a Democratic editor to be sane, honest
and patriotic. One in Missouri closed
a column article in defense of the
President with this paragraph: That
Democratic editor who thinks that the

senseless and base criticism of the
President, simply because be il IA Re-
publican, is badly mistake, and that

The torpOr in trade during the past
two weeks, which is causing some con-
Germ among Il few spectators and in
vcstOrs. is probably nothing more than
a repetition OF the lull which comes in
business in midsummer even in the
years of greatest industrial activity.
Perhaps the possibility that the end Of
the war may be near has some inliu-
ence in depressing the commercial ex-
changes. y change from a to
peace. while the change is pending,
will. like a change from peace to war,
disturb conditions. but. of course. the
disturbance in the present case. what
ever Is its cause. will quickly end.
Ever since the war began business has
been unusually active. The predict
ions of ii harmful effect on trade as a
result of the war were falsified by the
event. The general business improve
mcnt which began early last fall was
interrupted only momentarily by the
Spanish conflict. Bank clearings
throughout the country in the past
three months have been at the highest
level ever touched. They are at pres
ent far above last years line at mid
summer. Whether the end of the war
is near or far off the voiurIe Of gener-
Al trade in the country as Il whole
during the coming fall and winter is
sure to be large. -Globe-D Democrat.
