Of The business reports OF certain OF
the daily papers, many people have
been Influenced into the belief that
great business revival is in progress
at the present time. When the fact
that simply a gradual business growth
is underway begins TO dawn upon
them the effect may be reflected IN
a selling movement in stocks.
Leyel-headed business men do not
desire d sharp recovery In commerce
and industry History has taught
them the evils OF phenomenal bus
iness recoyeries which generally end
with initiation. a development usually
followed BY a panic. i gradual
revival. assuring more permanent
business stability is what they are
looking forward 10. and there is every
indication that their hopes viii be
realized
On all severe reactions We advise
the purchase Of Hartman Pacifies,
United States Steel, Republic Iron &
Steel. Southern Railway, Hill stocks,
Erie. and the established copper IS
sues. in previous letters We have
pointed out the merits of the Harri-
phenomenal record in period Of
depression, and with a return to nor
NAL conditions, these roads are likely
to reveal some new higher records in
earnings that will furnish good
grounds for prediction of increased
dividends. Union Pacific has earned
10 per cent for its shareholders more
easily than many other large systems
have earned ; and 6 per cent. South
ern Pacific Is in a position equally as
favorable. IL is Mr.. Harriman's pol
icy 10 pay TO his shareholders a
reasonable proportion of the earnings
OF his roads, and increased dividends
next year are more of probability
than possibility.
As the hearing before the Congress
ional Committee on the question of
tariff revision progresses, the more
convinced one becomes that taIId
changes will not work the havoc pre-
dicted before the election. It now
appears that only a moderate revision
can be looked for, and there will be
no disturbance TO commerce and in
dustry from this source.
The low priced issues have been
receiving more attention of late, and
with business recovery underway
which will enable these corporations
to make better showings in the
matter Of earnings. higher prices can
be looked for. Southern Railway
securities have been taken in hand,
and look like a purchase on all re-
actions
The copper metal market has
suffered a moderate reaction over
the last week, which accounts for
waning interest In the Copper issues.

In a recent market letter. Trippe
e. Co. Of % Broad street, New York
take clear and encouraging view
OF investment and business conditions
In part this very interesting letter
says:
The response OF security values 10
the results Of the presidential cleo
tion has been more pronounced than
anticipated By many Of the most
optimistic traders There Is evidence
on every hand Of an awakening Of
public interest after lapse Of nearly
two years The upward swing IN
values has been brought about by an
avalanche Of buying orders from
every state IN the Union, and liberal
support from Europe That the large
interests responsible for the rise
previous 10 the election have taken
advantage Of this whirlwind of public
buying by reducing their holdings.
there seems 10 be no question. With
this and relaxation OF interest on
the part OF the so-called public in
view, a reaction would simply be a
repetition of what usually happens
after a tremendous buying movement
on good news has spent its force.
Public participation may carry stocks
somewhat higher but the present
seems 10 be the time for exercising
caution. The fundamental conditions
of Wall Street. and the entire country
for that matter, will not permit an
extensive drop In prices In the near
future. The orders for stock under
lying the present level are too nu-
merons TO allow a severe reaction
such as was Witnessed a month or
two ago when Wall Street experienced
the usual Presidential election scare.
That the good securities will reach
much higher levels before the bus
mess conditions assume normal pro-
portions is the opinion of conserv-
alive business men and bankers, but
for the present the prudent trader
will await his opportunity TO secure
stocks on several point breaks.
The improvement i'll business since
the election has been grossly exag-
gerated. No fair minded man expect
ed that the election of Mr.. Taft would
be followed by an immediate restora-
tion of business TO normal conditions.
Such an event would have gone down
in history as an ecomic phenomena
for future generations to wonder
over.
Manufacturers and business men In
general anticipated that Mr.. Taft's
election would lay the foundation for
a gradual improvement In business
and we're correct in their forecasts.
Many mills and factories have re-
sumed and thousands of idle men
have been given employment. Inquir-
les for all classes of metal are larger,
but from present indications 1t will
be well into next spring before bus
mess has reached the proportions
recorded previous TO the October
1907 panic. Judging from the tenor

that of the great English writer's of
the eighteenth century The discoy
ries of humorists by publishers in the
last few years have not been SO nu-
merous, and many of them have been
disappointments because the writer
who has started in by being uproar-

1t has been noticeable for many
years that most of the boys and young
men. and some of the older ones, too,
of this section, were on at public work
on the different railroads. or at the
mills until the panic of last fall
brought them home, and every one
who could get a little piece of ground
to farm on this year has done so and
the facts are that many OF them now
have something ahead, whereas, while
they remained on public work they
went through with all they made in
SOME form.
There is lesson in this that /
hope. the boys who have deserted the
farm for some other job will profit by.
| can't explain why it is that young
men with no expense but their own
individual self will work at wage
from $3.50 to $500 per day and when
overtaken by sickness or panic or
any, other of the many misfortunes
that can arise, have not dollar to
ward off the trouble. Many of them
will now remain on the farm il they
can get the opportunity to do So
don't see those that follow after pub
lie work strutting around in new
clothes this year. They are all wear
ing their old clothing. but those who

are not selling any goods this year

around from job to job are preparing
to farm. The only evidence of the
panic remaining in this part OF the
country is the number of boys and
young men that are jobless, and ii
they fail to improve by the lesson
just learned, they are hopeless. The
panic is not going to stay with us.
Prosperity return ere long, anu
If those who have been idle this year
will, when the opportunity comes and
wages go back as before, get them

how many dollars they can save, not
how many they can spend, as before,
they will. when overtaken by panic
Or misfortune, have something to
bridge the chasm with.
II is distressing to note how many
81 the young men of today, like the
ITodlgaf son, spend their labor in
riotous living but they should profit
by experience, and if they would do
the best thing for themselves and
those who come after them. they
would, one and all, put every spare
dollar into a home. for the home IS
going to be harder to get as the
years go by.
The homebuiIder is the bulwark OF
the nation. Those that drift through
