Business Interests On the Move.

The business being done by the rail-
roads, steel mills, manufacturers and
banks of the country at the present
time is considerably in advance of
that of year ago.
And business men in general are
preparing for improvements and ex-
tensions. Financial arrangements
have recently been made by several
railroads for raising $50, ZOO, 900 to be
used in extensions. The Erie railroad
plans to expend $40. 600, 900 in the next
ten yeais for completing the double
tracking of its main. line between New
York and Chicago. The Atchison is
raising $50, 600, 900 for new work and
equipment, and other companies are
preparing to put smaller amounts into
improvements.
This after Democratic house has
been at work year, and on the eve of
Democratic presidential victory, does
not look as if business interests were
standing still, or had any fear of a
Democratic president. AS matter of
fact the business men of the country
know that Democratic administra-
ton would not harm any legitimate in
dustry. The leaders of the Democratic
house have proven themselves as safe
and sane business men as Republican
leaders ever were.
The gross earnings of the railroads
for the first week of February were
9.81 per cent better than a year ago.
For the fourth week of January the re-
ports from forty-our roads indicate a
gain over last: year of 1927 per cent.
Reports for December show an in
crease of net earnings over December,
1910, of no less than 1888 per cent.
Foreign trade in January was very
large. The exports exceeded those of
any preceding January except in 1908,
and the imports were larger than for
any preceding month with a single
exception.
In other words, the pre- election for
casts of the standpat Republicans to
the end that the stagnatlon of business
would Immediately, follow the election
of Democratic House, are not being
fulfilled. While it is true that some of
the illegal trusts which have been
throttling competition and boosting
the prices of the necessaries of life are
not particularly enamored with Demo
CT attic procedure, but legitimate bust
ness understands thoroughly that it
has nothing to fear from Democratic
ascendency, and welcomes it.

After the Fly.

The call for volunteers has gone
forth, the campaign has already begun
and the bugles ae sounding the order,
commence swatting." Authorities
on the subject declare that if we value
our health and comfort we should be-
gin the years fight against the minute
but deadly enemy now and not at
some time later.
At present the enemy is lurking in
ambush, and it is not an easy matter
to locate his asked batteries. Later
and with the first life-giving warmth
of spring he will appear in the open
field but by that time he will be 81
strongly reinforced, and with such
powerful achievements he will be all
b ut invincible.
1t has been shown that one fly may
become the progenitor of five tr,llions
That being the case it is very easy to
understand that the hunting down and
killing Of one fly at this season will he
uf more actual benefit to the public
health than the wholesale slaughter of
thousands in midsummer.
The enlistments in the great army
of fly swatters should be greater this
year than ever before. owing to the
extreme agitation the matter has re-
ceived sin the past few years. The
war against the insect should be
waged with greater vigor and determl-
nation by the great army, and above
all. it should be done promptly. With
the first mild days that even suggests
spring the flies begin to emerge from
their winter retreats, then 10 the time
to begin swatting and swat them good
and hard.
