says:
This is measure which has every
consideration in its favor; and in
view OF its Importance and the be-
Inefficient results which will certainly
follow from its adoption, it should
commend itself to the wisdom of Con
gress, as it must appeal to the patri-
otism of every citizen.

Gods Good Gifts.

God has given us so much to make
life happy, so much to make earth
beautiful. so much to evoke our praise
and alteration; and yet many walk
through earth with growl and a
snarl upon their tongues and lips, for
their vision is so nearsighted and con-
tracted they see no beauty and no
glory and no splendorin the blooming
flowers and signing brooks and golden
sunsets, and all the perfume of the
flowers and the wordless song Of bah
bling streams and lulling music of
sweet toned birds are lost to their
dull and cold and dumb and unappre-
ciative senses.-Orange va Observer

IRON TRADE CONDITIONS.
The Iron Age" says

Our monthly blast furnace statistics furnish fur
ther proof of the tremendous consumption which is
now going on. On December there coke and
anthracite stacks in operation with capacity of
3l7 1855 gross TONS increase of 1853 tons COM
pared with November l. In the last month stocks
have declined 42000 tons Counting in the charcoal
furnaces, we are now producing at the rate of
l6S 600 annun, against the maximum
record of 900 tons in 1900, and yet
stantly drawing what little stock the country is
carrying 1t should be noted, however, that the
difficulties in securing a supply of coke made the
production of November fall below the quantity
indicated by the blast furnace returns of the be-
ginning Of that month, a study of the figures of
November output justiies the belief that this
caused a deficiency of product of close to 100000
tons. On the other hand, some furnaces had to
pile iron because they could not get to send
il to the customers eager to secure the ma
terfal Probably such a condition of affairs would
in the olden times have led to a higher range of
values on ore, particularly since lines of roll
ing mill products like rails, very heavily sold
ahead Quite number of independent furnacemen
have contracted for their next years supply of
coke 81 10 to % an oven an advance over last
wear In the Chicago district interesting devel-
orment has been that a number of rnalleahle iron
foundries, unable to secure prompt delivery of coke
pig iron have turned to charcoal pig. Some good
sales have made and others pending.
