GROWING BETTER.
CONTINUED from Page One.)

Spouse in this field apparently exceeds
as much the expectation as does the
market movement of stocks. One APP
prnhension dispelled by the result of
the election and which was lost sight
of in the consideration of the larger
results was that the minor political
parties would reveal growth Of rev.
olutionary doctrines that would serve
a.: portent of future dangers to cap
ital and property rights, even If no
concrete results We're achieved. 1t is
fair to assume that the restraining
effect of this apprehension on conf
dence of capital and business enter
prise was greater than was supposed
in view of the violence of the effect
OF the larger results, which were pre-
dicted with full accuracy. The unim-
portant part played by the minor par
ties i'll the election seems to have dis
PEELED this anxiety entirely. There can
be no doubt in fact. that financial sem
timent has read in the result of the
elections revulsion of sentiment in
the country from the spirit of hostility
to capital as it is embodied in the great
corporations. Judge Tafts speech to
the Commercial Club of Cincinnati, al
though protesting adherence to the
Roosevelt policies and warning Offend
ing corpora tions. of the purpose to pur-
sue and punish. them, was seized upon
with avdity to indicate immunity from
further irksome restraint, with furious
effect on the speculative excitement.
Tine decision of the Northern Pacific
directors to distribute $11.26 per share
OF concealed assets! to its stock
holders was interpreted also as a brav-
ing OF formerly hostile public senti-
n1ent which was directed by state leg
isl1tive acts towards limiting freight
charges by the company Opposition
within the board to the assumed impol-
icy of this course. has delayed this In
tended distribution for nearly two
years past. The assumption of more
tolerant public sentiment towards cor
porations finds expression also in the
unconcealed intention Of the railroads
to secure high rates than they have
hitherto shown.
The enthusiasm of the speculation
owes much also to the conviction that
conditions favor a quick recovery to
any extent unnatural after a financial
crisis. BESIDES the usual accumulation
of large money supplies, usual at such
times, there is the certainty felt that
the improved control of processes of
production which characteriZes the
present period. has prevented the ac-
cumulation of stocks that has proved
a drag on previous periods of recovery
from depression.
