FEELING IN TRADE

But a General Disposition

tested

NEW YORK, Oct. Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say: Good feeling. in
some instances closely approaching
optimism, dominates the general trade
situation, but the undertone is withal
one of conservatism, and there is a
general desire to avoid overtrading.
Past reports of good wholesale trade
are reflected in an increased speeding
of <the wheels of industry, but except
In portions Of the West and South
west, where cool weather has helped
retail distribution and in the South.
where good prices forced the free mar
keting of crops there is disposition
to regard the weather as too warm for
best results for final distribution. Rail
way earnings turned the corner in
August, the roads of the country show
ing gain of fraction of 1 per cent in
gross and of 5 per cent in net over
1903. Collections have continued to
hold the Improvement noted last week.
General iobbing demand the country
over is most active. The better de-
.llland for pig iron noted last week has
= gained in strength and has been re-
flected in further advances in prices.
FINISHED material does not show as
much activity, but the railways are
buying material quite freely. Hard
ware is active in all lines. The raw
metals are all stronger, copper, tin and
lead being fractionally higher. Lum-
ber is relatively quiet at the East, but
there is considerable building being
done at the West. The tendency of the
cotton market is downward. The mar
kets for other raw textiles, such as
hemp, fax, wool and raw silk, are all
strong and tend upward. At the East
thee strength of the wool market is
notable.

Shameless and Unprecedented
In country like ours, where parties
contest for the direction OF the govern
ment, we must of course, expect party
advocacy and honorable personal ambi-
tions for political honors; but who among
those indulging in the farthest retrospect
of political campaigns, can recall one in
which the advantages of the present party
control have been so palpably and unblush-
ingly used for its perpetuation or in which
the functions belonging to the entire
American people have been more insolent-
ly forced to do partisan service? When
before has it been so distinctly claimed
that all the virtues, all the patriotism and
all the governing ability of our citizen
ship are found among the members of one
political party? And when before have
those of our citizens, not among the
chosen. been So boldly considered as aliens
in their own land, who should be cast
into outer political darkness as unworthy
to be entrusted with the power and re-
sponSibility of a government established
by the people and for the people? When
in all our history has a party so presumpt-
uously as now claimed TO be the donors Of
the gifts of the God or when has one SO
persistently plumed itself upon the crea-
ton of all the prosperity that has fallen
to our country's lot?
Such arrogance is not new to the party
which now seeks at the hands of the
people renewal of our governments con-

case may be. The man and woman
were strangers They met on the
day of their marriage. The courtship
was a matter Of correspondence, and
the correspondence was the sequel to
wager made by the youth with his
college chum. Why will men and
women trifle with matrimony? They
wouldn't invest 500 In a gold watch
without thorough investigation. They
would ask for guarantee. They
would be certain that what looked
like gold was not brass. They would
consult an expert. They would be
sure that the tlmepiece was a real
bargain. And yet a man will wed a
woman of whom he knows no more
than that her face Is pleasing, her fig
ure well nodded. Very often he is
sorry. Very often the home becomes
section of hades- There Is vitupera-
ton and scolding; nagging that drives
weak man to drink; and love-why,
husband and wife discover that there
never was any love, even in the be-
ginning. And it Is worse for the
woman. When she marries she burns
her bridges behind her. She gives her
future to a man. She Is helpless. She
Is entitled to consideration, tender af-

You see she gives up much

alliance for life Is of more Importance

why they couldn't care enough about
their girl to warn her, advise her,
prevent her from taking step that
spells ruin nine times In ten. The
man who Is entitled to a good wife,
should be man enough to open the
doors of his life and court inspection.

also worth winning in the old-fashion,

Nowadays we read too much, as we
eat too much; the memory, like the
; digestion, Is weakened by surfeit."
These words are taken from a recent
j biography of Whittier. The author
SHOWS now meager in quantity was the
intellectual diet of the poet in boy
hood. The Bible, Pilgrims Progress,
and few Of the volumes which form
ed the Quaker library of his parents
were the chief staple of his reading.
| Inc contrast between conditions Of
boyhood which produced such men as
whittier and those In which the youth
or our day are nurtured is frequently
pointed QUITO the disadvantage of
the present. 1t is the fashion to be-
wall the multiplication of books and
magazines. Because one person or an
other tries to read them all and fails.
or meets with that success which turns
his mind into scrap-bag riddled with
holes, it Is argued that modern condi-
tons are all wrong, and that "civili-
cation" should turn back to earlier
ways. 1t is a plausible cry, but is it
quite convincing? The world is full of
number of things which did not ex-
list hundred years ago. Moreover, Its
population has enormously increased
which is to say that where there was
formerly one boy or girl looking for
knowledge, there are now hundreds of
similar seekers. Therefore the agen-
