EN- BARRASSING
PROSPERITY.

Usually when there Is plenty Of capt
tai to be had, there is a lack of en-
ployment, and when there is work for
everybody, there is lack of ready
money. At present we have the novel
combination of plenty Of work and
plenty of capital.
The demand for labor. taking the
country in general, is greater than the
supply. There Is money and credit
enough to take care of all current
needs, and to finance any business en-
terprises, no matter how great, that
anybody cares to undertake.
The situation is especially good for
labor. The hordes OF newcomers that
have kept wages down heretofore are
no longer cheapening our labor mar
ket. So few aliens are arriving that
thus far this year the net gain from
immigration IL only about 1000 u
month. The economic influence of
that number Is negligible.
An agent OF the federal reserve
banks announces, after n broad survey
of American business conditions, that
there are today more products, more
workers, more wages paid. than ever
before"
There is so much business that the
country can't handle It. The pros

French troops are resisting the Ger
mans without counting the sacrifices.
French artillery Is replying shell for
smell to the German fire."
The French official communique, very
vague In its statements. carrie no con-
firmation Of the German report of the
capture of Douamont. Al the same
time the statement that the French
have taken up new positions indicates
that the French forces have been COM
pelled to retreat stlll further. A slmi-
lar statement came from the French
war office yesterday In admitting a re-
treat from Beaumont, Samogneux. and

The statement that the new positions
are now backed by the Meuse hills Is OF
little value In determining how far the
French have been forced to retreat. II
IL possible that the left wing has been
forced to evacuate the Cote du Poivre

they have been forced back only to the
