Prosperity Here to Stay.

Chicago.-There never was so much
prosperity throughout the United
States as now exists. and the outlook
for the future is for n continuance pi
good times. There Is nothing feverish
about the country, II is mostly the nat
ural. healthy rise in the country's
growth. This is the general view taken
by Chicago experts in various CONNER
cial fields. who commented upon the
New York interviews from editors OF
trade papers. who declare that prosper.
fly is here to stay. Chicago Is becom'
ing n financial center In Il way 1t has
never been before. Railroads are TAX
ing hopeful view of business condi'
tions. Their change or attitude is
caused largely by recent crop reports,
which are prepared by the railroad
every year. with n view Of getting
some idea of the number OF cars ana
the motive power which will be needed
to move the crops TO market.
The railroad traffic men say that
what is lost in wheat will be made up
In corn and In other crops. and that
there will be as much business Tor
them as there was last year. But even
the optimism has not been unchanged
hard enough to induce the manage.
ment to adopt n more liberal policy. 1t
is stated that II the reports continue
good the railroads will soon adopt a
more liberal financial policy. THIS
means that much work which has been
stopped will be resumed and ere long
thousands of men will be put to work
upon unfinished plans. 1t may have
an even wider Significance. for II the
crop reports which the railroads Sc
cured are true II will mean an easier
money market. Railroad men every
were do not believe that hard times
are going to come soon. and ithis Is
radical change of front during the past
two or three months.

while a total of over 100000 tons Will
be in storage along the main line OF
the Union Pacific in Wyoming and Nc

period, SO that in the event OF lam

In refusing the nomination for another

few days in Denver. said that Taft Is
the Republican favorlte in his state
next to Roosevelt
There is some talk OF Fairbanks" I"
said Mr.. Nelson, but he is not so
strong as Taft, because Taft bears the
official Roosevelt stamp. However.
the sentiment in my state. as well as
in some other states the conditions in
which am familiar. is that the cou-
ditions OF the country are such as to
demand another four years OF Roose'
welt. The sentiment is that Mr.. Roose'

nation. thereby making 1t practically
impossible for him to decline the nom
