INA -coaEoRTABLE CONDITION

report issued by the United States Steel Cor porstiou. commonly known as "The Steel Trust" shows that he net earnings the quarter ended December s1 last were s51 2s27ss or $572soso larger than for
 any previous quarter and over $40ooooooo larger than for the same quarter last year, dividends were resumed on the common stock at the annual rate of five per cent iee,i,s surplus of s2Ss0O692 above all charges and dividends and so5oooooo cash in the bank Such eptomzes the extraordinary story of prosperity reported for tho countrys greatest industa corpora ,ion
 Recently Chairman Gary gave out statement which
 s conceded great present prosperity but which sound ed high note of alarm for tho future according to the New York World The situation. Mr. Gary said was innated American industry faced after the war the
 most persistent and most difficult competition ever ex oerieneed and everybody must now prepare for caam tous consequences. Then unless adequate tariff pro lection" is meantime provided. The practical sense or that view must have been that the steel corporation itself should 80 slow any dividend action on the pres eu prospersy And Wall Street so interpreted 1t. as in the belief that no dividend. or only small one would be declared
 It is apparent that the other directors of the Steel Trust did not share Mr. Garys view Of disastrous com petition rom nations "Oled white" and indastHany crippied by the war Even Mr. Gary himself seems to have revised t as he also voted for the five per cont rate Against that terrible day. not far ahead when adeouate protection must be had if the steel industry Is to be saved from ruin. neither great steel ex' pe as Henry Prick nor such good judges of general business prospects as J. P Morgan and George w. Per kins made any effort to conserve the corporations cash resources as far as possible.
 The conclusion is evident The gentlemen of the Steel Board are practically as one in their inay to forsee any such day.

 The wars effect in increasing prohibition sent- ment Is further manifested by the appeal of prominent Canadians to the Parliament make the entire Domin ion dry by law while tho war lasts and for three years after If this action Is taken. drink win be given the same status as coutraband Of war in Canada that is has in Russia and to limited degree in Great Britain
 But if 1t is not necessary to force prohibition as military necessity in England curiosity may be felt as to why SO drastic measure is regarded ex pedient in British dependency remote from the scene of conflict It has not been generally supposed this side of the line that the Dominion suffering from the rayages of liquor As it Alberta has decided in favor of prohibition. and other provinces have regu- lated quor selling with greater or less srictness
