He says: These two measures must have far-reaching consequences, for they have made the United States a more formidalde competitor than ever before, not only as regards international commerce, but as threatening London's position as the center of international banking. He predicts that commerce will be stimulated, and a great increase in the trade between his country and ours There are many men who will agree with him who have hitherto been inclined to be pessimistic. There cau be no doubt of the improved temper Un fl more cheerful outlook. These are seen even in Wall street. A prominent iron master is quoted by- the t'inctinan Enquirer as saying that, in spite of the present unsatisfactory conditions, •‘the general sentiment among the iron and steel men is optimistic.” He says: Since 1907 the history of the iron trade has been downward: j This has been a longer period of depression tlian ever before, and it seems reasonable to expect that the time is come for a great upward movement, so that many of the very best posted men of ffie~ trade, figuring on the commercial tendencies, predict that by March or April of this year there will be a turn with a very definite change in the right direction.— Indianapolis News. Steps towards the completing of an interurban deal that means tn.ieh to this city and county have been made this week by interested parties and these will be made public soon.

p nothing startling that furnishes big - headlines for the newspapers, he does '* nothing but work at the job of being - chief executive, but he does that so Y well that lie is acknowledged so far to have been u big able man who docs things worth while. His ton months record is wonderful in accomplishment and the people are with him. 8 With all due reverence to his high 0 position, the people are saying “Go 0 it Woody, we have confidence in you. b “ Quoth George Lockwood In his Mun “ cle Press: "As we go to press wt ■ learn that George Ade, the honest down-trodden farmer of Newtou coun ty, announced his candidacy for the senate while feedin* the bull moosen of the Tenth district on spare ribs succulently emblematic of the state m ; the party, because they are on the hog.
