Excellent Business Outlook.

The general business outlook in this
country is conceded by ali to be the
most satisfactory that it has been dur
ing the last half century. and that
means that never before in the his
tory of the United States has the
prospect OF continued prosperity for
the farmer. the tradesman and the
mechanic been brighter than at pres
ent. lust now the wages in many in
dustrial lines, and notably in trans
portation. are undergoing readjust-
rrnt which will make the income of
working men and women more in
keeping with the general conditions
unGer which they live. The lively and
thoroughly sincere movement TOR the
better conservation of our natural re-
sources is step forward which will
most certainly bear fruit It's effect
will be reflected in the better ana
more extensive use OF our water pow
ers and mineral wealth.
Tie backbone of our industrial SUI
prclnacy, the skill and willingness to
work of the American artisan, is IL
fixed quantity always to be reckoned
on the side of industrial progress.
While we now lead in this regard,
vet far seeing students of economic
subjects have become convinced that
industrial education for young men
and women will rebound to the benefit
OF this valuable element in our ma
tional success. IN accordance WIN
their suggestions, trade schools and
facilities for industrial education are
springing UP everywhere.
The agricultural element is now very
inuch in the limeliSht. The only re-
suit possible is an Improvement in the
cultivation CT the land so that the
certainty of crops as we'll as the
quantity of crops will be increased.
The possibility that the United States
will at any time in the future cease
to produce food. enough for its NIL
lions of non food producing pOpula-
ton is verv remote. The bare sugges-
ton that the failure to give sufficient
attention to such matters has resulted
in the high price of food. has turned
thousands back to the sol! and has
focused the attention of all farmers
upon better farm methods. Which
Fever way we turn the prospect for
continued and ever-increasing pros
perity for all is bright.

Optimism.

The airs Of spring may never play
Among the ripening corn,
Nor freshness of the flowers of May
Blow through the autumn morn:
Yet shall the blue-eved gentian look
Through fringed lids to Heaven.
And the pale aster in the brook
Shall see its image given.
The woods shall wear their robes OF
praise.
The south winds softly sigh.
And sweet calm DAYS in golden haze,
Melt down the amber sky
And SO the shadows fall apart
And SO the west winds play:
And all the windows of my heart
l open TO the day.

the weavers in July they were pro M
ed higher rate for their work but
Mr.. Crawford claims that that was
agreed upon the conditions that better
work was to be done by the men win ich
has not been complied with. Hence
the order was given on Monday morn :
that all woavers would be put back on

There were few finer or more attract

the beautiful saddler of Mr.. John w.
Dodd, of This city
On Thursday he was entered in the
ladies park saddle class and was rid
den by Mrs. j. M. Drury, Of Hsgers-
town, and came out with third prize
which considering the fact that the
horse was never in that class before
means great deal. On the following
day he was entered i'll the gated sad
die class and was ridden by the same
lady aud carried off the first prize
making sthe seventh for the season.
Mr.. Dodd attributed the excellent
work done by Jerry to the masterful
mar ner in which he was handled by
Mrs. Drury who has the reputation of
being one Of the finesthorse- women in
this section.
Mrs. Drury we are informed gives
riding lessons at Hagerstcwn.

Railroad Wreck.

There was a serious wreck Of tram
No. 40 Eastbound on last Wednesday
morning at Hobbs at the summit near
Kearneysville. Whilst the wreck was
serious one and some narrow escapes
were made no one was killed and so
far as we are able to learn even serious
ly hurt. 1t seems that the passenger
train was running very slowly by or
track and just IS 1t was passing the
crossing switch freight with a help
er in the rear ran through the switch
which had been left open by mistake
by some careless employe and side
WHIPPED the passenger train striking
the combination car The freight en-
gineer shut off but the helper not
knowing anything was wrong Kept
pushing the traiD on. The freight
st ruek the combination car and nearly
turned ii over breaking the coupling to
the ladies coach and throwing the pas
sengers about in che cars. J. ID. Price,
the baggage master was knocked OUT
the door of this car and falling on the
rail of the East track broke his hip.
There were Pullman and an extra
coach in the rear which were derailed
but no one in them WAS hurt.
The claims agent Of the Rad was at
Winchester adjusting claims from the
wreck In that vicinity last Sunday and
came at once to Martiniburg but we
learn that none Of the passengers from
this place made elaine.
