the SUNSHINE SONG.

Many or the metropolitan news
papers are encouraging their readers
to believe that there is a return o.
prosperity. Not promised prosperity,
but the real thing ION paper
The Brooklyn Eagle reports that
there Is actually a shortage Of UNI
skilled labor at Pittsburg AS Brook
Ign is evidently doubtful OF the
amount Of prosperity on tap. and
stiIi in the dumps, The Eagle tries to
rally the spirits Of its citizens BY say
ing:
"Plttsburg does not mince matters.
II has no doubts. II does not hesi-
tate to say that prosperity has re-
turned. 1t points to the railroads
having their headquarters In that
city, and shows that they have order
ed their repair shops on double time.
\ IL points out iubilantly that many Of
tho railroads have been caught short
OF cars In this sudden return OF
prosperity, SO the car-bulIding COM
panies are preparing themselves to
meet a big demand"
There has been, II is true, q studied
attempt to revive business at Pitts
burg, but the Improvement is so small
as TO hardly be noticeable. and there
are still thousands Of men unempIoy-
ed The fact that there are miles OF
unemployed engines and cars on side
tracks. over 100000 Of them, and that
the groSs earnings OF railroads are
still showing o large loss from last
year, hardly proves the truth OF the
claims sent ont BY the Pittsburg sun

Ity IN some other city than where
they are published Prosperity Is as
elusive these days, and as slippery
to pin down and hold, as a Republi-

The miserable and criminal habit
OF carrying concealed weapons is re-
sponsible for nine-tenths Of the muir
ders committed in the United States.
It seems impossible to prevent the
violation OF the law in this partlcu-

rers 10 a recent tragedy in that city
as a result Of the reprehensible prac-
tice as follows

The law says it is crime. because
1t paves the way for other deeds Of

'But somehow It is hard to escape

Denver hotel and railway men pre-
dict from the early beginning of the
stream of tourists and sight-seers. that

Denver's popularity as a summer re-

Der of daily visitors from eastern cities

erings, will bring by far the largest
number of visitors the city has ever
had in any one season.
