Evidences of business improvement under protective tariff and sound money continue to make themselves apparent in the reduction of failures in the business world, those for the last week being, according to Dun’s Review, 235 against 266 for the corresponding week of last year.

Dun’s Review of last week quotes the price of cash wheat at 1.04| against .81| at the corresponding date of Inst year; corn .33£ against .30(1 at the corresponding date of last year; lard, $5.40 against $4.50 last yeur: mess pork, $10.25 against $9 Inst, year, while in other farm products ihere is an equally striking advance. Yet there has been no free and unlimited coinage of silver meantime.

There in no hotter test of business activity and prosperity than that shown by the traffic of the railroads. Reports from 07 railroads show that the receipts received for the first week of March were 1(5.7 per cent greater than in the corresponding week of last year, while 27 roads, whose reports have been received for the second week in March, show an increase of 21.7 p» r cent over the corresponding week of 1897.

Gold Continues to flow into the country at the rate of a million dollars a day, the total for the past thirty days being about $50,000(XX). The gold in circulation in the United States has increased $100,000,000 since the Chicago plutforin, and those who supported it announced that there could be no material additions to the circulating medium of tho country except through the free and unlimited coinage of siver, while tho total increase of money in circulation has been over #200,000000.

Foreign manufacturers continue to invest money in manufacturing establishments in the United States, now that they have investigated the Dingley protective taritf law. A new silk mill at South Bethlehem', Pa., anqther at Patterson, N. J., a dress goods plant at Athenia, N. J., a velveteen mill at Mystic, Conn., and other establishments of this character in which foreign capital will give employment to American workmen, ere announced as among tho business developments sinoe the enactment of the now tariff law, and others are to follow.

Col. Mark L DeMotte, of Valparaiso, showed wind kind of a man he was in the soul trying times of 1861. He showed it again during Greece Smith’s successful rebellion in the Indiana legislature: when no one resisted the outrageous course of that vulgar, brutal bulldozer, with his hired ruffians and prize fighters at his back, with the courage and spirit that Mark L. DeMotte showed. He is a patriot and statesman, lie is a soldier and a soldiers’ friend; he is a man of courage and resolution in times of emergency.

Joe Cannon, of the shoe-string district of Illinois, is fastbecoming as pestilent an old chceseparer in his self-assumed position of watchdog of the treasury as old Bill Holman used to be. In face of the desperate and wasteful measures this great, wealthy country is now compelled to adopt to put itself into a war condition sufficient to equal beggarly, bankrupt, decaying Spain, Cannon is now opposing the building of three more new battleships, on the grounds of economy. Economy! Great heavens! After the lesson we are having now if old Joe hasn’t sense enough to see that economy in making preparations for national strength is not the worst and most wasteful c'f misdirected parsimony, then he ought to be replaced in congress by a man who is capable of understanding that fact. Instead of providing for three new battle-ships and a dozen torpedo boats the bill ought to provide for a dfizen battleships and four dozen torpedo boats, even if the nation has to incroase its debt for the cost of them. Cannon ought to be fired.

No President was ever more highly complimented or received greater evidence of the confidence of the whole people than was President McKinley when a Congress, composed of representatives of three great parties, voted unanimously to place in his hands without restriction, $50,000,000 to be used in the national defenses and to be used in carrying out whatever policy his judgment might dictate, as events should call for action. It not frequently happens that men for purely partisan reasons and for advancement of the interests of their organization Criticise, sometimes harshly, a representative of the party to which they ure opposed, hut when in a crisis such as this, members of all parties united in unanimously placing in the hands of (ho Chief Executive of tlie nation a vast sum of money to bo expended in furtherance of the policy which he is cautiously and conscientiously following out, it shows how little is meant by many such criticisms and how complete after all is the confidence of the citizens, irrespective of party, in the man in whoso hands the destinies of the nation have thus been placed.
