An Era of Cheap Money.

A good farmer in Wilson Township
has tried to loan his surplus money to
his neighbors at 5 per cent. straight,
but has been unable to do so owing to
the present restoration of confidence
and the large amount of money among
the people. Is this not a strange condi-

blow at the divorce industry. 1t holds
that residence in the State must be bona

An Object Lesson for Kentucky.

"'Way down In Old Kentucky" they
are feeling the difference between keep
Ing the American market for ourselves,
in supplying the demands Of the Ameri-
can people with American products, In
keeping American money at home and
in attracting the gold Of other countries
to the United States-the difference be-
tween all that and the giving up freely
to foreigners all the advantages OF the
American market. Mr.. George Braden,
president of the Globe Fertilizing Com
pany. of Louisville, recently spoke as
follows:
I'm Kentucky the general business
conditions are better than they have
been since 1893, and in some respects
they are better than they have ever
been since can remember. Manufac-
turers are very busy, and concerns are
paying better dividends than they have
paid for a long time. In addition, a
goodly number Of new industries have
sprung into existence, and there Is,
therefore, plenty Of work at good pay
for all. Money is easy, and we have
felt no stringency whatever"
This sort of thing ought to swing
Kentucky over permanently to the par
ty which makes its fundamental prin-
ciple of faith the protection Of Ameri-
can interests.

Railway Prosperity.

The railways Of the country are doing
an unparalleled business at the present
time. Not only are people travelling in
greater numbers than in ordinary
times, but there is an equally heavy
amount of freight traffic. So much
freight Is to be transported that the
Railways are finding it difficult to pro-
vide enough cars to meet the demand
for them. The situation is summed up
by an Eastern railway official as fol-
lows: with the enormous business In
sight 1t will be crime If, for the next
six months at least, there is a single
rate cut or an unemployed car east of
Chicago. There is sufficient business to
keep every road busy"
The great amount of business done by
the railway companies is sure indca-
ton Of the great prosperity that pre-
walls in all parts of the country. 1t re-
fleets good times for all the people. The
crops are large, causing unusually
heavy shipments of grain and agricul-
tural products, which means Increased
freight business for the railways, while
the great amount of manufacturing and
our large exports to foreign countries
contribute to great extent In giving
the railways new business. Then the
people are travelling more than usual,
because they feel that they can afford
it. The prosperity of the railways is an
infallible test Of the prosperity of the
country. AS they have never known a
period when their receipts were great
err, it may be assumed that the country
is enjoying greater prosperity than ever
before Sentinel.
