Dun & Company's Weekly Review of Trade will ray tomorrow: Tbe year begins with tha kind of bust that couats. Fur months there has been a rising demand (or materials, but now the crowding demand for finished products begins to advance the iron and steel industry, j The country is on the up grade, and men who expect j it to take tha down ward road iiavs yet some time to wait. There are no Indications of a reaction, which always follow large and rapid business recovery, and existing condi tions in industrials and in foreign trade by no means forbid the hope that tbe in crease may continue, as it did after the revival in 1870, lor several years. Ex ports, compared with Imports, continue to indicate an enormous balance in cash due this country; and gold Imports will begin again. The failures fof the week have been m in the United States, against S22 last year, and twenty-four in Canada against thirty-two last year. Washington, Jan. 0. The anti civil service reformers scored a victory in the house today. The executive, legislative and judicial appropriation bill was taken up for consideration, and then, when the appropriation for the civil service commission was reached, Evans made a motion to strike it out. This motion has been made annually for a doaen years or more, but invariably failed, But today the opponents of the law laid great stress on the fact that they could not get a decisive vote upon the proposi tion, and were therefor compelled to seek Ha nullification in this manner. Even these appeals failed io bring out the full strength of the opposition, though tbe motion to strike out carried by a narrow margin, 07 to 61. This was in committee of the whole where no record was made of the vote. Moody gave notice that he would demand a rec ord vote in the honse, where the friends of the civil service law expect to reverse tbe decision Wasiunqton, Jan. 0.

Bai.sk, Jan. 5 The state tax levy fo: l will be 5 7 10 mills, sgalnst 3j mills for 1833. This decision was reached by the governor, secretary of state and state treasurer at a meeting beld today, when, they Inspected the euinmarle of assessment rolls of all tbe counties in the state, which they ob tained at the eecretsry of state's office. The amount expected to be raised baa not yet been made poblic. The Increase In this year's levy oyer that of last lear is due to unexpected items in the general appropriation bill passed at the social session of tbe legis lature, Including Ml, 000 for tbe legisla ture of 1897, which did not organize; 133,000 for tbe porch ar-e of the branch asylum site at' Union ; 125,000 for the replacing of the burned I uildings of the state agricultural college at Corvallis, and $15,000 for (he expense of the Ore gon commission at the Omaha expositiou. i A glAxce ahead. I Heery Clews, tbe great financier, pre dicts that the ilosing yeai haa been a remarkable one in roaoy respects. An unexpected war bas been fought, within its limits. About 10,000,000 additional population have come under ous-control ; thousands of square miles of tha most fertile territory in the world have been added to our domain; civilisation bas taken a momentous step forward, and tbe United States, conscious of its ma turity and atrenth, has suddenly taken a foremost position in the family of nations, involving changes of policy and vast possibilities' concerning tbe future which can only be dimly foreeen. Whether we will or not, events are forc ing upon us a policy of expansion, which, in spite of danger!, means an era of great opportunities forlAmericsn enterprise. A revolution baa taken place within a few short months; the curtain has been drswn, and our people are rapidly be ginning to realize that their field la the world, and that in future we must adopt more liberal ideas and work on a larger plan. 1 Next year we will strike the hlshest notch of prosperity that tide country, or any other, has ever reached. Good times will embrace Ilia entire nation- all industries will enjoy great activity, and in consequence, labor will be in full demand at good wages. Tbe people of this country will be contented, hsppy and loyal beyond precedent, tbe glori ous results of tbe American-Spanish war are going to be more tar-reaching than the most brilliant dreamers of America's destiny have ever pictured. The world's commerce will be revolutionised. The acquisition of tbe Philippines makes our Pacific coast ot immensely greater im portance and value to us than ever be fore. We are placed in possession of a frontdoor entrance to the vast com merce of all Asia. From ocean to ocean run our great railroads, and under this new Impet js these great arteries of trade will infuse lile into! the remotest corners of the land. The Construction ot the Nicaragua and Panama canals in our interests must soon bl undertaken. Their completion will make the Carib bean Sea the commercial rendezvous oi tbe world. t The enormous benefits t accrue to us may be only Imagined. Porto Rico, our new outpost, and Cuba wilf share in the great distribution. We ar now fast ap proaching a 100.000,0001 population which will certainly come; within the next ten years. Reflecting men now be gin to realize that fact, and that then we cannot (ail to surpass all other countries in wealth and international importance. Hitherto they have not dreamed of what the United States is to the rest of tbe world, and now that their eyes are open to the inevitable expansion of our com merce and power, a great hope la in Bplrinn the public consciousness. This new inspiration must henceforth be great impulse force behind the industry and wealth of the country, and Its effect can hardly fall anything short of a great bound in national enterprise. on the democratic ticket In 1800, favor of eipansion.

Two handsome ami inspiring United fttatea flags floated over Oregon's stately capltol yesterday, and will remain there for forty days, elgnaling the fact that the letrialature of the state is convene r In regular session for the enactment of such messures as) are deemed best for Ihe advancement of the interests of tbe j:ornmonwealtb sfjd the repeal of ancfj tfers as are not con. eidered in line with 'that policy. It was a happy; looking, Intelligent and, to every appearance1, I well meBff-As ing body of men that assembled In both ' house yesterday. I A different feeling was evident amon them than baa been noticeable for several sessions. Tberw was no barrier to obstruct free and con fidential communion. The legislative) sky was clear, and the atmosphere freo from the miasma of political wire-working. Tb greetingM were cordial and the determination for earnest, onited work were geouine. Under such favorable auspice tbe regular session was inaugu rated and the people of tb ataU have) very reason to U hopeful of good results. Tbe work of organization was of short duration. The officers of senate and boose during the extra session were re elected at once, exoept in tbe case of the srgeant-at-arma of the house, where the dictates of propriety demanded a change, and to this place Benjamin 8. Worsley, of Astoria, was sleeted. The greatest question so far apparent is bow to hsndl the question of commit tee cleiks, which hi as far from being settled as it ever was. The no ruber of men, women, boys' and girls seeking such place is as Urge as it bas ever been, and members ' are importuned to an extent that is terribly annoying and difficult to meet. There is a sincere de sire upon the part of a majority of the members to lessen the evil of the com mittee clerk graft, bu tbe political pree sure is wonderful and the question ia just where to draw', the line. Every member bas some friepd or friends seek ing these jobs and feels bouod to help them, so be is willing .to let "tbe other fellow" do tbe reform iact so long aa hi own friends get what they want. special coaassroxDxncE. Salxv, Jan. 9.

Notwithstanding tbe (act that there is no senator to elect, the lUte house is thronged with people owing largely to the fact that all the state' officials ex cept state printer are changed today, and a large number of assistants are ap pointed at this time, hence the anxious throng.
