BUSINESS IS BRISK “EVERY PROSPECT PLEASES" Local Merchants In the Towns Find Receipts Increasing Each Month. Bradstreet's Report Says That Trads Continues Its Onward March. Under the heading.. "Business 18 Brisk this Fall," the Freeport, Ill., Journal says rhst local merchants are optimistic and that "Ultumn displays in local window« include great variety of high class good» that will sell well." The Journal then says: "Recent reports from shippers In almost every section of the country give one the idea that the only fam ine we will have ia one of freight cars rather than of produce. The condi tions In the harvest fields of our great grain sections thia year have demand ed more labor than they could get. and that condition has-not extated for I several seasons. Wages are at the top notch and there 1» plenty of work. Factories are Working full force and i many of them over-time. And the farmer still buys automobiles. "Among local merchants business has been good this sufnmer and each month has shown animprovement over the corresponding month one year ago.” . Bradstreet's Report, a recognized authority on business conditions, sums up the present prosperity in the following words: Every prospect pleases and trade continues its onward march. Cumula the strength appears to be the order of the day. The quickening impulses cf better things are extending to sec tions that heretofore have been rela tively backward, and what Is most slg nificant, garnered crops contribute even higher yields than were antici pated a fortnight ago, with those yet to be gathered—corn and cotton— giv ing evidence of astonishing good progress, The crop situation is such as to generate optimism, the jnflu ences of which on trade are clearly apparent all over the west.

Aren’t they splendid stories? Can any American read them without a thrill of pride and satisfaction? And when we stop to think of it. men and brethren, must we not realize that the concrete facts they present are of im measurably more value and importance than all the theories, all the fine spun fads and fancies, that were ever invented. How trivial, how like sounding brass and tinkling cymbal, seems all the talk about “bosses” and “initiatives" and "referendums,” about this or that petty “issue.” in the presence of the splendid FACT that there is peace and plenty in all the land, that men are busy and women are happy and little children arc fed and clothed! All these things have come to us under the law we now have, through the sanity and sense and wisdom of the great party that is now in power. Why jeopardize it all in a rash experiment? Why change for the mere sake of a change? Why take a chance when we already enjoy a certainty? Why vote for ANYBODY but Taft and Sherman and the Republican Party? « Politic.
