A potent factor in the general busi- ness and financial situation, writes Banker Henry Clews, and one which must enter into calculations for the future, is the gradual recovery of the European markets from prolonged de- water mark are, as have before not ed, to be seen here and there, but the recovery of Europe means increased demands for products, of which our merchants will not be slow to take full advantage. Slackening of demand at home promises to be well offset by increasing orders from abroad. The figures promulgated by the bureau of statistics at Washington, placing the wealth of the country at over eighty billions of dollars, with a relative pub lie debt of only one and four-tenths per cent, are such as to well-nigh for bid pessimism. The United Kingdom, our nearest follower, appears with all approximate wealth of fifty-nine bill tiOUS auu d IG1dllhC DQO11S ACOL OA " per cent. Such a comparison is not one to discourage the American peo- pie; and in our purview of the general situation we must not allow the little clouds or mists-often temporary set backs-to dim our vision of such pow erfuI and fundamental forces. An other element of encouragement i'll the general situation lies in the very ap- preciable increases during the past few months of gold production ill South Africa. The return to anything near the normal supply would strengthen the markets Of the world and even the present ratio of increase ought to ease the demands for gold upon this country, especially as recent events strongly indicate the likelihood of a final termination of the Boer war within reasonable time.

Now is the time for Waterbury tc

Now is the time for Waterbury to keep hustling on the public building question. It is easier to get a site at present than it will be in few months. The law makers at Wash ington feel inclined to do something for the Brass city, and the question should be kept alive. The city officials and others who may have influence at Washington should not let the matter drop out of sight.
