SIGNS OF PROSPERITY
Ex-R Representative Mcdowell Tells Of Good
Times in Pennsylvania.
Captain Mckee Speaks of the Big
Boom at Joplin,
Mo.

"Times are good in my state" said ex-
Representative Mcdowell of Pennsylvania.
now clerk of the House of Representatives,
to Star reporter today. There Is not a
man in my neighborhood Sharon, who need
be out of work If he is willing to work.
Common labor is commanding about $50
day. and skilled labor gets big wages.
The fact of the matter is that the laboring
man is on the top of the heap in my section
and is able to dictate terms to his employer
Every factory and mill is running full
time. The merchants are doing good busi-
ness, the railroads are hauling vast quanti-
ties of freight, the farmers are prosperous
and the whole community is at work.
Banks Can't Get borrowers.
''It may sound strange to say it, but it is
fact that the only people who are tagging
behind the procession of prosperity are the
bankers They can't find a market for their
money. Now, take our little town, of prob
ably 10000 inhabitants. l will assert that
there is 81 800, 900 idle money in that town
today The banks cant get borrowers.
"One reason for this is that the mills have
gone into the trust; and are being run with
the money put up by the trust. Formerly
it was the custom for every bank to carry
the paper of the mills, sometimes high
as s250.000 to bank. That market is now
cut off.
The most encouraging feature, l think
is the good price which common labor COM
mands. When the day laborer, the un-
skilled workman, can get 81 so for his work.
it means that the community is prospering"
Boom in Missouri.
Captain Thomas Mckee. journal clerk Of
the House of Representatives. has just re-
turned from a trip to Missouri, during
which he visited the lead mines around
Joplin
THAT whole country is on a big BOOM"
said Captain Mckee to a Star reporter to-
day. THE Dngley bill gave protection to
the lead miners and the result is apparent
Immediately. The biggest mining camps
have ever seen are around Joplin. The
mines are running full time and paying
good wages.
1T is something of an object lesson to
the free trade democrats Of Missouri. They
had just the reverse under low tariff and
felt the pinch of poverty.
within sight Of the hotel where 1
stopped were six banks-not faro banks,
either but national and state institutions
On Saturday nights they would keep open
until after midnight, attending to the wants
of their patrons. Every thing is settled on
Saturday night and you could see thou
sands of men coming to those banks to
make deposits.
"Of course, good times in the mines
means good times for the merchants, the
railroads and the farmers. You don't hear
any grumbling in that part of Missouri.

TIDE TURNS TO KILBOURNE
His Friends Elated Over Late Primaries in
Ohio.
Outside Of His Headquarters, How.
ever, Belief Prevails That Mclean
Will Be Nominated.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, August 4.-The man
ayers of Col. James Kilbourne's campaign
for the democratic nomination for gov
ernor are much elated over the course Of
affairs this week, claiming that 80 per cent
of the delegates selected since Monday
have beer. for the colonel Judge r. M.
Ditty, who has charge of Col. Kilbourne' }
campaign, says it is certain now that Kill
bourne's friends will organize the conven-
tion, as eleven of the twenty-one districts
are controlled by them. 1t is noticed how
ever, that he counts in this list the twen-
tieth district, which Is certainly in doubt,
but probably for Mclean.
Mclean has suffered a sharp defeat in
Highland county, where q Kilbourne dele
cation, headed by McLean's bitter foe,
Judge Uric Sloane, has been chosen.
Allen w. Thurman came out in an inter-
view last night declaiming that Mclean S
nomination would be suicidal for the party
and would insure the election of George K.
Nash. the republican candidate. He ex-
pressed no fear that Mclean would be nom
mated, however, claiming that he (McLean)
would see that his nomination would bring
out Mayor Jones as candidate, and spill
the democratic vote.
However, Mclean is very active and
shows no signs of being scared off the
track
The purchase of the Toledo Commercial
by Geo. w. Hull several weeks ago, proves
to be Mclean purchase, suspected at
the time, and James w. Faulkner, formerly
city editor of the Enquirer, has assumed
the editorship of the paper. By this move
ment Mclean certainly carries war into
Africa, for Toledo Is not only the home of
Mayor Jones, but Of the most outspoken an
ti-McLean democratic newspaper in the
state, the Toledo Bee.
Outside of the Kilbourne headquarters
the opinion is general that Mclean will be.
nominated on the first ballot at GAINESVILLE
next week.

THREW LETTER INTO QUEENS LAp
Sensation Caused by a German Who
Asked Her Aid.

LONDON, August 24.-Considerable alarm
was created yesterday evening by man
throwing a letter into Queen Victoria 3
carriage as she was driving into Osborne,
Isle of Wight. A rumor spread to the ef-
feet that the letter contained an explosive,
but this turned out to be false. The police
arrested the man, whose letter was only an
appeal to her majesty to secure for him Il
new trial of a civil suit which he recently
lest. The prisoner was found to be a
German, who was not aware that his
action was against the law As it was evil
dent that he had no intention to do any
harm, the man was released.
The queen was surprised when the letter
fell into her lap, but she betrayed no
alarm.
