not as great as had been feared.
Two factors are giving conf

is a considerable advance on 1907.

The Business Rally.

Announcement is made that
many steel mills in the Pittsburg
district which have been close !
since last November will resume
work iu a few weeks. This is one
of the many Indications that busi-
ness confidence is returning. The
cut in steel prices has increased
the number of orders which are
going to the mills, and this will
mean the employment of tens Of
thousands who have recently been
idle. The gross earnings of the
railways and the agares of the

The contest for the Democratic
nomination for Governor of Mis-
sonri seems to have simmered
down to Cowherd aad Ball, with
the elimination of the latter at the
primaries almost a foregone con-
clusiOn with those who know
Democratic politics in this state.
MIR. Ball was in Potosi the other
day bnt the impression he created
was a distinct disappointment to
bis friends. He is doubtless all
that his sobriquet of Honest
Dave" impliea. Int for man who
assumes to stand in the front rank
of tho party he looks and talks
like a second-rater. Among his
remarks here were statements
that could not have set we'll with
the various interests that dominate
Democratic politics. Ball will
only be in the running until the
votes at the primary election are
counted.

thinks if he beats loud enough on

that his best chance lies in getting

he can and still be Democrat,
