The Promise Has Been Kept.

Let's see wasn't it William Jennings
Bryan who declared that under the eX-
listing single standard of values the
United States would never see prosperity
again: We believe it was and not only
did this distinguished advocate of cheap
money declare thus but thousands of his
deluded free silver followers made the
same claim during the campaign of SO.
Well, concerning the present wave of
prosperity which is sweeping over the
country Dun's Weekly Review of Trade
says:
December is adding a surprising close
to the most surprising year Of American
history. November had surpassed all
other months of the century in volume
of business and production and thus far
December is doing even better, in pay
ments through clearing houses, in rail-
road earnings, in foreign trade, in out.

other tests November was far the best
month Of American financial history"

the calamity howlers. Think of it; "the
best month of American financial his
tory :" And this, after the oft-repeated
claim that the free and unlimited coin
age of silver at ratio of l6-to-l-and
that alone would bring prosperity again
This is what Bradstreet says:
1.-THE countrys export trade is of the
largest volume ever known, that for
November surprising the total for De-
cember year ago, with the indications
favoring total trade for the calendar
year at least one sixth larger than year
ago. and our sales abroad aggregating
s2.00 for every 800 worth we buy
"Our export trade is of the largest
volume ever known" and "our sales
abroad aggregating 81 for every 81
worth we buy and this under Re-
publican, single-gold standard admins

ley tariff law" to contend with.

when business of all kinds was de-
pressed when thousands sought in vain
for employment and when public soup
houses were opened in every large city.
