MINES AND MINERALS-R Reports

general Improvement Of conditions in
the lines with which we are familiar
and we shall be greatly surprised II
business conditions do not show ma

the first OF the year.
TRADE JOURNAL-We be-
Heve we shall sec an almost immediate
revival in the lumber business. The

ARCHITECT-Mo for
building operations is now plentiful
Labor and materials are cheaper. The
time is, therefore. particularly propi-
UOus for building; and those interested

years

Lumber Dealers Agreed
That Business Is Better

MONTGOMERY. Ala, Nov. l2.-The
members OF the Alabama and West
Florida Lumber Manufacturers Asso-
citation, in session here, are agreed
that business is getting better, that
prices. while not advancing Just yet,
are firm and that the inquiries are far
in excess OF what they were several
days ago The revival has dated from
the election, and 1t Is followed by a
general feeling Of confidence in the
future. they say Many of the larger
car factories are back in the market
and this has given a good tone TO all
classes OF output
II is also said by south Alabama and
Florida men that the increased de-
maud for sawed timbers has added
strength TO the local market and
given better showing for moving other
grades Cars are said also TO be OBJ
tainable to move the output Mill
yards are low and business is not
taken for more than two weeks off.

LINCOLN Seb. Nov. IA battle
lost-a war but begun is the caption
Of the first page editorial in this week 3
issue of William Jennings Bryan's
newspaper.
"The election of 1903 is over and the
returns disclose d signal victory for our
opponents. but the principles for which
our party stands, the policies for which
our party contends, these are not dead.
A good proposition is not made bad By
rejection at the polls, a needed reform
Sc not made unnecessary by an adverse
vote.
THE legislation asked for by the Dem
ocratic party in its national platform
was not OF a temporary character; it
vas legislation which will be of per-
manent advantage when it is secured.
AS to Reforms.
Does any one believe that the Ameri-
can people will permanently permit the
will Of the voters TO be thwarted. as 1t
is now, by the election OF Senators
through legislatures2 Does any one
believe that the trusts will he permitted
permanently to exploit the masses?
Does any one heIive that the con-
sumer will permanently permit the tariff

the public viii permanently tolerate
sstrangement between labor and capi-

Does anyone believe that 1905 90 OF

Does anyone believe that the extrav-
gau-e of the Government will go on

Does anyone believe that our Repub-
lie will permanently consent to a
colonial policy with humIIIations and
financial burdens
Is a Necessity.
There must be a party representing
the peoples protest against wrong iu
high places. against corruption in poll
tics. and against the oppression OF the
struggling masses, and the Democratic
party must continue its fight or dissolve.
1t could not exist as a pIutOCTatiC party.
During the last twelve years, the
Democratic party has accomplished
more out Of power than the Republican
party has accomplished in Office, and
this is a sufficient reward for those VINO
