TJ1E (JROWTII OF COOS DAY.
AFTER tho spring comes, when
thu sun Is high advanced, when
tho chill rains have ceased and
tho lawns linvo grown green, thoro
nro often cold days and cold storms,
tsomctlmcs frosts, and occasional light
snowfalls, lint no one doubts that
tho spring has come; the furmor does
not put off his ploughing and plant
ing und tho birds continue to make
tholr nests for tho reason of men
and tho instinct of birds alike know
that tho temporary signs of winter
arc but lluro-bucks, soon to puss away
Tho growth of this city during tho
past four years has been the same
way. It has had Its cold days and Its
fitonns; sometimes there have boon
commercial blizzards which have
made thu timid afraid; but nil the
tlmo tho level-headed have said:
"Those things nro but llare-buckH:
tho Hprlng has como and nothing caul
utop It or long postpone thu promise
tho Dowers and fruits of tho summer
that Is near, or the fruition of the
linrvest."
And so the city has continued to
fjrow; It is growing still and both tho
reason and tho Intuitions of men have
nettled upon thu truth that this city is
to bo a great city, which nothing can
jirovont. Jt Is growing now. Within
ai brief linio It will bo growing much
fnptfr all tho slgiiH point that way.
trim stones for Solomon's temple were
fashioned outside the city, so was tho
(raining of the wood work; and no
co und of axe or hammer was heard
jn it assumed form until finally its
white walls became thu glory of tho
lioly city and Its roof of gold grow
mora golden nt dawn, and the sun
limit its beams that the splendor of
tho sunset might be prolonged upon
that same roof. There will bo the
ring of axe and liammor hero soon

tho temple, tho plans are being work

NEW YORK, Sept. 11. While

und Franco Is being torn with riots
In protest against the high cost of
food there, the renewed nttentlon of
this country Is clnlmcd by sugar
reaching the highest point In twelve
years, by coft'eo soaring, und potatoes
celling us high ns $1.10 per bushel in
the field. Ill vlow of this, householders
nro usklng, "Will this winter witness
a recurrence of tho conditions of
1900-10 when tho cost of living
reached the npex und declined slowly
only after many sa-cnllod boycotts

commodities woro declnred through

Economic exports answer "no."
Prices will bo higher thoy say nud In
somo instances nbovo thoso of last

Is willing to got along without the
near-luxuries may nwnlt tho an- whntovor. As Is usunlly the case tho
