Enormous Wealth of the Country.

When Mr. Porter of tho eleventh census gets around to it he may be able to show that the capital invested in commercial ' enterprises in this country is not far from $60,000,000,000. In 1880 it was something over $40,000,000,000. It has been estimated that Mr. Porter’s figures would show tho present amount to be $60,000,000,000, but some estimates indicate that it will be $10,000,000,000 above these figures. England can show pothing like it. This is an enormous increase in ten years and shows the earning power of the money which is invested in business enterprises in the United States.— ClevGl&fld Plaindealcr.
