Germany and American Horses.

Foreign correspondents report that
the Minister OF Agriculture of United
Germany at a recent session of the
Prussian Diet declared that American
horses developed influenza after i'm
portation, and IL the importations in
creased. Germany would be forced to
adopt suitable quarantine measures to
protect itself. DR.. Salmon. the chief Of
the United States Bureau of Animal
Industry, said when his attention was
called to the dispatch: $50 far as the
Department of Agriculture is aware
there is no influenza prevailing in this
country. 1t is a disease common to
horses. and possibly may be present in
places of which we have no informa-
ton, but this is improbable, because
news OF that character would promptly
reach the department. The horses
which are exported are not inspected,
but IL an animal has the disease 1t will
recover or die before the transatlantic
journey is made. The period Of du-
ration of the disease is about two
weeks. and as 1t takes from two to
three weeks to ship the animals across
the ocean it is apparent that all danger
is passed by the time the other side is
reached" The growth in the shipment
Of American horses to Europe in the
last four years has been enormous.
These shipments in 1897 aggregated in
value s4,769, 265, as against $71S,607 in
1898.

Mr.. Gladstone's Illness.

The health aud vigor OF the
venerable English statesman Is
not satisfactory, but it is graft
flying news to all who love the
free and yet orderly government
he so long champIoned that his
present illness IS cot Of a serious
nature He may cutlive many a
younger man YET although he Is
10 his rinetietn year. His active
and useful live reaches back tx
the days of the hrst great free
trader IN England. Sir kohert
Peel: he worked alongside Cob
den and John Bright, and he
fought inch by inch the policy
of Disraeli. There IS no career in
English politics that IN duration,
IN success. and is good works
matches that of William Ewart
Gladstone. He was a a who
bestowed scores OF peerages and
the like, but who would not &C
cept for himself any such baoble
He was born a Gladstone. and he
will die one3 and history will
carry his name farther than any
titled name Of his generation
will go.
His career in literary work has
been no less remarkable. 1t was
recently stated that he was about
to undertake the writing of new
| book, involving an amount of
research that even a young man
| would shrink from. All through
his busy life he has been accus-
| toned to turn from heavy cares
of state to undertake tasks OF
accurate scholarship, or to dis
cuss social or religious questions
disconnected with current poll
tics. And perhaps all this mental
activity, combined with tree-cut-
ting and similar physical exer-
else, accounts to some extent foI
his many years, and his surpass.
ing vigor throughout them all.
1t has long been known that re.
tlrement from active work is one
of the most dangerous things 6
man can do. It invariably short,

an example of the value Of marc
work year in and year out. A

A CHEERFUL STORY.

The trade reviewers tell a most
cheerful story last week. Accor-
ding to r. G.. Dun & Co the vol
ume of business at this time is 80
per cent larger than a year ago
and 1O.4 per cent greater than
in 1892 on paymenes through
clearing houses, the last named
having been q year Of exceptions
al prosperity.
A glance over the general
field shows but one important in
dustry tagging and that is cotton
manufacturing and its embarrass-
ment is confined to New England.
1t is prospecting in the South
ern States.
The production of iron is at
the rate of 1000. 900 tons per
month-an unprecedented out
put. This heavy production was
just beginning to weaken the
market when an extraordinary
demand for finished products set
in. The effect will be to prevent
a fall in prices and in fact to buoy
up the market.
Another striking feature which
Dun points out is the fact that
railroad earnings-an unfailing
barometer of trade-so far in
January are 17.6 per cent. larger
than in 1892, while failures in all
lines are less than half of last
years number and the smallest
ever known at this season.
Our immense expectations of
grain and breadstuffs, which con
tinue undated, swelling all the
while, add immensely to the
strength of the trade situation.
This country is not only shipping
wheat at the rate Of about 4, O00,-
900 bushels per week from Allan
tic and Pacific ports, but u corn
is actually going to Russia and
Egypt, the very countries which
Europe relies upon for its bread
supply.
With a big trade balance in our
favor American merchants can
well afford to buy literally from
abroad and the effect of this is to
make customs receipts for the first
twenty days in January larger
than in the entire months of Oc-
tober or November, despite the
Dingley law.
These cold facts lead to but one
conclusion and that is that this
country is entering upon a period
of great industrial and CONNER
cial activity and consequently a
season of marked prosperity. Meth
er tie Dingley law, nor Congress
iopal war scares, nor anything less
than something extraordinary can
check it.
The year 1898 begins we'll. The
outlook is indeed BRIGHT. May
there be no cessation of the acti-
witty that is now we'll under way.
