Premature. Democratic GIee.

Just now there IS much sleeful
chirp and chatter from the leading
members of the administration regard
ing the more hopeful condition OF bus
mess. To a certain extent the outlook
is better, but the country should labor
under no misrepresentation as 70 the
cause The war in Europe has bull;
up about the United States a protec-
tive wall, and is giving the tariff pro-
lection that the Democrats took away
in their new tariff bill. The wilson
Underwood law opened wide our doors
10 foreign products; the European
conflict prevents the foreign pro-
ducer from taking advantage Of the
opportunity thus given. That IS the
real reason for the present business
squirt plus the war orders which this
country is receiving.
The proper comparison OF present
business conditions is rot with the
immediate past. but with those condi-
tons which existed befors the Demo
Gratis came into power. Fsor this pur-
pose. the TWO years of 1852 and 1914
afford an excellent barometer, as they
are the last years of the Republican
management of the nation and the
first fall year of Democratic control.
