Worldwide Prosperity.

Robert p. Porter. who has been study
ing European countries from business
standpoint, has just said in London:
have visited every country in Europe
except Spain and Portugal. Everywhere
| was struck with the air Of general pros
perity. Work was plentiful, and there
was no appearance of want in all the
principal cities, such as Paris, Berlin,
Vienna, and Amsterdam. An immense
number of buildings were in course Of
construction. In Paris there is nothing
but the Exposition. In Amsterdam they
are driving piles in all directions for foun-
dations Tor new buildings. Europe is not
able TO supply the demand, and American
orders, in the majority OF cases, are only
the surplus which cannot be supplied by
the European manufacturers.
The truth seems to be that this pros
perity is worldwide just as the depres-
sion preceding it was worldwide.
America shares in the industrial prosper
ity or the depression of the world.
