Keen observers recognize the reviving tendency of business Tn many ways. Railroad activity is more apparent than at any time since the panic. More cars are in operation now than there have been for months. Some rail road companies have placed or ders for more rolling stock; fac tories are resuming operations; farm operations with the open ing ot spring are extending and calling for more muscle, both human and equine; building en- terprises are quickening with the comming of warm weather. The million of the unemployed, about whom there is so much loose talk, are centered almost entirely in the great cities, where they presist in remaining in idleness or at starvation wages, although there is plenty of work waiting for them in better surroundings Tn the country. Here IS a great waste of energy, of course, but the other eighty four million will go ahead with their affairs with out appreciable loss of energy on account of idleneSS.
