Should the district be operated, it ia quite likely that the railroad will be extended down the coast. The coal On the Pearson property is of excel lent quality, being considered as good as any mined in the Northwest. The largest vein thus far uncovered Is nearly Ave feet in thickness. It ex tend into the mountains, and doubt lets leads to an almost inexhaustible supply. There are many other valua ble eoal properties In the Lower Neha lem country, and tho working of the Peitrson property probably means the development of the other deposits.

The war Is over end peace has come without complications with any of the foreign governments. The most boun tiful crops ol eur bistory are gathered or assured. Industrial aotivity has been quickened in every sectiou of the country. We have lust rescued tne highest point of national credit known since the beginning of our civil war. The gold reserve is over (220,000,000, being the largest accumulation ol gold in the treasury ever known since the re serve was established in 1879. It onoe reached 2200,000,000 in 1887, but the present improvement in business con ditions and national credit may be fully appreciated when it is stated that the Kold reserve had fallen to $44,000,- 000 in January, 1895. With our national credit established not only at home but throughout the world ss equal to that ol any of tbe ereat powers, and with aa enormous balance of trade in our favor, our peo ple are entering upon a season of pros perity that should be one-of the most substantial and enduring oi tne cen tury. Tbr hundreds of millions we have expended in war and must eon liuue to expend until peace shall be fully established, have all been paid to our own people, and never in tne nis lory of the republic were we so entirely iudepenrtont tiiiancuiiy aua in gen ernl busincas condiiions.
