Pessimism Lacking.

Reports to trade papers show less
uneasiness than usual during presi-
Dental years. For instance, the Amer
lean Wool and Cotton Reporter notes
that in the clothing trade there is an
entire absence of the pessimism which
usually blossoms out each four years.
The retailers as well as the manufac-
turers seem to realize that the re-
sources of the country are great
enough not to be embarrassed by a
presidential election. There is also a
prosperity too deeply rooted to be dis
turbed by the campaign, as all work
ingmen who wish work have it, and
few aside from the strikers are out Of
employment. Meanwhile the farmers
are better off than ever before. Trade
is also influenced by the reasonable
certainty that there viii be no change
in the administration, and that four
years of continued prosperity IS be-
fore the nation.-Chicago Tribune.

fioeked to Electric park in the after

at $50 o'clock and was witnessed by
large crowds from one end of the
route to the other. The men, as a
rule, were plainly dressed, the gaudy
uniforms seen on other occasions of a
like nature being missed. At the re-
viewing stand the parade was wit
messed by many notable persons,
among them William j. Bryan, demo-

Alschuler, democratic nominee for
governor of Illinois; Mayor Harrison,
Gov. Roosevelt, the republican candi-
date for vice president; United States
Senator William E. Mason and Judge
Richard Yates, the republican candi-
date for governor of Illinois. Bryan

hearty reception by the marchers.
Later in the day Mr.. Bryan addressed
a large audience at Electric park his
speech being devoted to a review of
labor's victories, with much advice re-
garding party issues. Gov. Roosevelt
also spoke. He discarded politics en-
tirely, combining his remarks to a dis
sertation on the beauty and influence
of acknowledging and the possibilities
of association. Addresses were made
by others, including Messrs. Yates and
