BOOM PREDICTED IN AMERICA SOON

Chicago Ranker Says United States Is On Verge of Greatest .<* Prosperity. Philadelphia, Nov. ll.—“ The U. S. is on the verge of the greatest prosperity the country has ever known. We have reached the bottom after a period of decline, and things are now getting better every day.” With this spirit of breezy optimism, Geo. B. CaldwAl, of Chicago, president of the Investment Bankers’ Association of America, greeted Philadelphia today. “I do not want to mix in politics, but I think all will agree that we have had about ten years, now, of agitation, and agitation is not good for business,” Mr. Caldwell continued. , “Many of the new laws on our statute books are untried tools, but the opposition which was born Pf fear has now given way to a feeling that it is only fair to try them out and a belief that they may prove more beneficial than at first anticipated. “Investment bankers are not opposed to the proper supervision of corporations or business.”

AN APFEAL

The clerks of the Rensselaer stores will soon circulate a paper asking the businessmen of the city to close their places of business the day of Thursday, Nov. 26, which the ' President has set aside as our national Thanksgiving Day. Tljey feel they are entitled to this day to spend in any way they may choose. As a usual * thing the clerks of Rensselaer stores work from 12 to 14 /hours per day and it seems to the writer that tfhe businessmen could show their gratitude for their services in no better way than giving them the privilege of spending this day as they see fit. All our neighboring towns the size of Rensselaer close their places of business at 6 p. m. except on Wednesday and Saturday evenings. If Rensselaer wants to lead, why not gjve the clerks some time to"* spend with* tftfdr families and also to take part in social affairs, whWh privilege they do not enjoy under present Conditions. Everyone close. A READER.

The suggestion follows: ‘My view for the benefit of Rensselaer is for our live merchants to handle the products of the fertile regions Surrounding our city and thtfe encourage the producers to spend their money at home instead of dealing with mail order houses. Instead of shipping in an inferior grade of products, why not cut orit the middlemen and buy the good, fresh stock right off the farms near home?"—Mr®. S. L. Jordan.
