1.-THE safest and best policy for the
country is for the republicans in con-
gress in a plain business way to make
such friendly changes in the Dingley

necessary, and as the country at large
is demanding" says the Algona Up

After visit to Iowa City the editor
of the Nevada Representative declares
that THE most obvious needs of the
University are for a new medical build

need is like unto that of a growing boy

last years suit" That paper names a
half dozen buildings that the growth of
the University really calls for.
The Chronicle notices that a club
composed of the colored people, has
been formed in Fort Dodge. and that

The Cedar Rapids Republican is

GERMAN DEPRESSION PASSING.

It is encouraging to learn that in
Germany, where hard times and COM
mercial depression have been severely
felt, there is tendency toward recov-
cry. During the past year larger num-
ters of the working population have
Leen thrown out of employment and
have severely felt the loss of wages
thus resulting. Oyerproduction has
reaction. However, it is stated that
banking combinations under the lead
ership of Berlin financiers have hus-
handed the resources of capital, and
trade syndicates have steadied foreign
commerce by limiting production, pre-
venting ruinous competition and main
tanning prices, but artisans, whether
unemployed or working half time. have
been left dependent upon meager saw
iugs or municipal works and pubiic
soup kitchens, yet the burdens have
been borne with exemplary patience
and military discipline, such as German
training enables them to exercise.
A writer at Berlin says the industrial
depression of the last twelve months
has resernbled the financial revolution
of 1857 In the United States, with the
important exception that the collapse
of all business interests, altho general
" apprehended, has not happened. Ihe
chief cause of depression has been the
expansion of domestic trade and build
ing enterprise on speculative lines
when the reserves of capital and the
resources of organization were LACKING
for financiering operations of extraordi'
nary magnitude.
Cautious financiers, who have beef
wondering whether the bottom wouis
fall out of everything, are now con
WINGED that the resumption of business
activities is impending. A remarkable
feature of the protracted period of de
pression has been the steadiness of for
eign trade. The Judgment of manufac
turers and merchants, who have beel
fighting their way into foreign market
for a quarter of century, has been re
markably indicated. Foreign trad
has been the anchor to windward dur
ing the protracted period of storm an
stress. The German ship has righte

foreign commerce. This supplies tn
merchants of Hamburg, Bremen an
the frontier towns with a strong argu
ment against the new tariff bill, b
which reciprocity arrangements will b
