is as brilliant as ever, particularly
in the iron and steel trade, in which
prosperity cannot exist, except when
the crops promise abundantly and
other productive powers are profit
ably employed.
The primary cotton goods market
Is for the moment quiet. Mems wear
mills are busy but footwear fac
tories are awaiting returns from their
salesman. Hides and leather are
gradually adjusting to the new con-
ditions but the prices are firmly
maintained. Building is active.
Taking the country at large there Is
notable freedom from industrial
disputes. The very satisfactory en-
ployment of labor must soon add to
the retail purchases which now ex-
pand slowly.
Retailers are numerous in the dry
goods market but purchasers are
conservative. New business in foot
wear is held in check by the price
situation. A satisfactory volume OF

roundings. The ladies of the town had
been invited, and were also told to in
vite their friends, to attend the install

the memberships gentlemen friends.
After short business session of the
lodge, scores of visitors invaded the
lodge room and all attentively listened
to the instructive lectures delivered by
the installing officer, G. A. Davidson,
to the new officers of the camp. Many
of those present, after hearing the

of the Brotherhood from what they
had heretofore entertained, and large
addition to the lodges membership is
sure to result from their newly-ac-
quired knowledge.

The Mann bill includes a number of other
more or less important provisions, among them
one abolishing the Isthmian Canal Commission,
an unavoidable institution which was inserted in
the Spooner amendment only to satisfy the in
sistence Of Senator Bacon at the time when the
legislation was at critical place. The Mann
bill substitutes for the commission chief engi-
neer, director and governor, but, as there is
no need whatever for the director, it is by no
means improbable that as reintroduced that pro-
posed functonary will be eliminated from the
measure.

devise means whereby the work can be so facili.

January l, 1913, which will be within Mr.. Taft's
term as chief executive Although the President
has clearly indicated to congress that he believes
the national legislature would be wiser to avoid
