Of the 1865 period has again been

In 1896 the country's steel output
was 5,2SO,oOO tons; this year it will
be three times as large. Our steel
rail output nine years ago was 1,110,-
900 tons; this year it will be $500, 900
tons; and next year it will be in ex-
cess of 100000 tons.
The growth in railway earnings has
been just as remarkable. In 1896
American railways earned gross ST.
125, 0O0, 900 That was a big figure,
and the statisticians wondered how
many years it would be before the bill
lion and a half mark would be reached.
But this year the figure mas reached
the stupendous total of 2,'0O,O 100000
In the meantime, railway dividends
have increased from $S1,000,00O to
more than s2O0,OOO,0 900
The domestic market is so big that
comparatively little attention has been
given to the growth of the foreign
trade, but in these nine years that has
increased from $1,5400Q0O0o to ST.
600,000,000, and very large part of
this has been in exports.
The rapid growth in the production
of "copper" petroleum and coal is equal
ly astounding. Prosperity has been
written in big letters across the face
of the country in these nine years of
plenty. And the letters have been
written in gold. In 1896 the gold
money in circulation in the country
was 1857 zoo, O0O Today the total has
reached $1,131, 100000.

In these nine years of plenty since
the defeat of Organism in 1896 the
material progress of this country has
been on stupendous scale. Jay
Gould called pig iron the barometer
of prosperity" In the year of the first
free silver campaign the American
pig iron output was 100000 tons.
This year it will be 100000 tons, or
more than two and one-half times as
large. The furnaces this year will
turn out more pig iron than in the
whole twenty years prior to the panic
much as in the boom year 1898,
when so much pride was taken in the
rapid growth of our foreign trade;
every two weeks in these days of mar
velous activity in the iron trade the
furnaces are producing more pig iron
than in the whole year when Andrew
Carnegie became a partner in the firm
that is the nucleus of the Steel cor
poration. The pig iron output now is

COMMENDS STATESMAN,

To the Editor of The Statesman: AS
one who takes a pride in good horse
flesh, and who desires to see MS neigh
bors own good buggy animals, and who
has often lamented the fact that the
roads have sadly diminished the breed
ing and owning of first-class harness
horses, 1 wish to commend the attitude
of The Statesman in its cordial sup
port of the present movement for the
construction of permanent good roads.
Everyone who owns a good horse APP
preciates what an Unreasonable diff
ference there is in the pleasure of driy-
ing when the road is in fine condition.
Then, when the weather is good, the
horse at his best, the driver and his
family arrayed in their good, clean
clothes can take a Sunday outing that
is pure delight-one not spoiled by
the anticipation that the return home
will be marked by mudsplashed CLOTH
ing. or grmy dust that cannot be
brushed or washed out. 1 predict that
be uShered in with the advent of good
roads, and thus a new and important
industry will be started to add its share
to the many things that go to make up
the total prosperity of our community.
The good roads movement is a good
can.
