Our Only Remedy

Seek We out of the book of the
Lord and read.-Isaiah 34:16.
The theorists are all around us and
thousands rise up to point the way
to adjustment and salvation. All
classes and kinds of schemes are sug
gested as remedies for the ameliora-
ton of existing conditions. The peo-
pie are seeking and suggesting new
remedies for old sins ON the basis
that a new day demands new methods
and new principles of regulation. But
the truth resident in God is ever I'M
changeable. The nature of sin never
changes for its consequences are al
ways the same. On the principles
of calculation two and two make
four, every where, heaven, earth and
hell. The four cardinal virtues are
as true and realistict today as the
day when they were classified. The
essential qualities of righteousness
are as true and certain today as when
Abram left the Moon-god districts
of Chaldea or Hammurabi wrote the
ethical code of nations. Truth is
truth whether found in the bosom
of Jehovah or in the rags of the beg
gar. The testimony of experience is
| that righteousness exalteth nation
but sin is a reproach to any peo-
| ple." Truth never reverses itself
nor can it change as long as God
remains immutable. The power and
quality of the truth are not affect
ed by change of thought, by human
attitude nor by the advance of civil
cation. It's methods of application
may change; its manner of prosecu-
ton may vary with time and eondi-
tions. but its nature and quality can
not change if God is God.

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, January 9 LP).-Auspicious
weather for corn movement and for
economizing ~ feed led to general corn
selling and material price downturns
early today. Wheat also went lower, in
huenced by Liverpool reports of pres
sure of offerings from Argentina and
Australia. Opening y to / cent down,
corn later continued weak.
Wheat started at 34a7s decline to "a
advance, and subsequently held steady.
Rallies from early declines in corn
were promoted by adyices that the Ne
braska corn situation was summarized
as follows: Omaha, 80 cars in, 81 out:
country sales overnight again very light;
one of the biggest houses obtained four
cars" A week ago Omaha receipts
totaled 119 cars and a year ago 1879. The
fact that the most readily available sur
plus corn was in Nebraska lent signifi-
canoe to this showing and stimulated
purchases.
Reports of need of moisture in do
mestic Winter wheat territory tended to
tighten wheat values after early set
backs. There was also a lessening of
receipts, primary arrivals aggregating
$4,000 bushels, against l ,424000 a week
ago and $4,000 a year back Com
pared with corn, wheat trade lacked
volume and variety and was described as
a carbon copy of many days preceding.
Oats followed corn. q
Provisions went lower with hogs.

BUYING BY MASSES
BIGGEST TRADE NEED

The remainder of 1881 promises to be
a period Of unmistakable recovery with
returning prosperity for business, Al
lard Smith, executive vice president of
the Unicn Trust Co., Cleveland, told
the Economic Club of Chicago. The
most important problems facing the
country is to restore and maintain pur-
chasing power Of the great mass of
people, enabling them TO consume a
large volume of goods, the banker de-
clFed. This is being accomplished to
some extent by the decline of ccm-
modify prices at wholesale and retail,
thus increasing the buying power of the
dollar.
America is committed to the prin-
ctple of large public purchasing power
as the foundation for business pros
perity," said the banker Industry is
geared up to mass production and even
greater mass consumption is essential
to sustained profits.
Perhaps the most notable single de-
velopment Of the current depression is
the determination on the part of the
industrial leaders to preserve present
wage levels in so far as this is possible.
America has had many previous Pc
RODS of depression, but notwithstand-
ing these fluctuations the material well
being of the people has steadily adj
vanced. After each depression the liv-
ing standards of the mass of the people
have usually risen to a higher plane
than prevailing before

Power and light issues were in de-

better than bears had anticipated.
