When a man finds himself unable to

proceeds to regard himself as the pos-
sessor of advanCed views.
There is a great deal in the trade
outlook to encourage every business
The business of the country is on
the upb 111'.“ de. The day of the calamity
bowler is past. The season begins with
the kind of business activity in almost
all lines that counts.- This is showu,
first, by a rising demand for materials,
man.
and second, by an increased demand
for the finished product.
We are entering on an era of re-
markable industrial prosperity. W’ages
in many of the mills have voluntarily
been advanced. This creates a better
feeling between the employer and the
employed. In view of the reports daily
brought to us‘ by observers of experi-
ence we are inclined to be optimistic as
regards the future of business, and we
are confident that the year 1899 will be
a record-breaker.

Bryan IS getting ready to announce
that no matter how many Democratic
dinners may be held, he will. attend
all of them cheerfully solong as no Gold
Democrats are tolerated—New York
Press.
If that Thomas Jelicrson dinner in
New York is to be a dnlar dinner it is
hoped that it will be a Thomas Jeffer—
son dollar dinner. Jefferson insisted
on putting 100 cents worth of metal in
a dollar.—Loulsville Courier-Journal.
General Eagan is trying hard to
squirm out of a nasty mess, but the
harder he tries to get out the deepzr he
sinks. It would not be surprising if the
finding} of the court of inquiry should
result in the curtailment of Eagan’s va-
cation allowance.—Springfield News.

Jerry Simpson says that if Bryan wi11

The legislators at Hartford have
passedalaw prescribing that no one
shall catch more than 30 trout in one
day. Very well and good. Now, all
that remains is to legislate for the
trout and fixasevere penalty for any
trout that fails to bite on the hook of
a man who has fished all day and
caught—only 29.-——Ncw Haven Palla-

There is a fair show for a honestly
organized trust, whose capital stOck is
not inflated and soaked in water. The

We have assumed the ,“white man’s
burden” and propose to carry it to the
end. There was a time when it might
have been fitting to discuss the advisa-
bility of establishing a government to
some extent harmonizing with that of
the Filipinos, but that time seems to
have passed, judging from the manner
in which the insurgents are acting.
Nothing remains to be done but to go
rightahead remembering that which
at first sight may look most merciless
may in the long run prove mest
mercifu1.—Brooklyn Eagle.
We have always advocated high 11-
cense, and when the fee was $250 we
did our best to get it raised to $400..
We think that by placing it at'$l,500
in the cities and $1,000 in places the
size of Ansonia and Derby. It would
work a revolution in the police courts
and tend to keep men sober who are
now addicted to drink. With a license
fee so high as to prohibit the low grog-
geries, and with a law which c0111-
pelled the saloon keepers to take good
care that their costly licenses were
not forfeited, there is no doubt of the
benefit it would be to the peopleg 0e11-
cr ally. — An'sonia Sentinel.
Is there reallv any need of legisla-
tion concerning trading stamps? If
the merchants do not like them, have
they not the remedy in. their 'own
hands? Trading stamps may be all
that those who object to them claim
they are and still be unworthy of leg-
islative condemnation. They induce
cash payments and that ought to be
a good thing for merchant antigens-
tomer. But if the merchants find
them a bad thing they are not compel-
led to use them. If they are really an
injury to business it would seem as if
business men generally would discard
them—Hartford Post. '
