Great as was Inst year's achiIe'ements for

When in our history has the hIllineSS outlook -
look of ( hue country been so conpIcuousiy
avornbho as at this moment ? When has
there been such a conjunction of fortunate
Influences of the first magnitude ?
To begin with , there is peace. now pretty
certainly hovering so near us that her wing.
beats will presently be heard , Although the
war has ccnseI to be a very serious drag
on business , the stopping of a war expendi-
Lure of something like $1OOOOO a ( lay will
be helpful and .tirntulnting ,
Then the national domain and the as.
tional wealth are about to be augmented
by the acquisition of Puerto flico , a highly
lroducttvo island 60,000 square nthies in
extent , with 2r,00,000 population , yielding
coffee , fruits , nuts and tobacco , It has an
export and import trade aggregating $36-
000,000 annually , and is capable under Amer.
lean inaflagenlent of increasing immensely
in population , prliictlven5s ami wealth.
We have a credit balance of $600,000,000
in our trade with foreign nations for tile
fiscal year jtist closed. We owe far less
abroad thah we have oweil at any other
: tlmo In the last fifteen yearn , becatiso we
have been buying back our securities , and
buying them cheap. Accordingly , we have
less interest nioncy to ay to foreigners.
Already gold Imports have begtln a. most
unusual thing for this season of ( lie year.
But Europe has no other way of paying its
debts to us , The offsets that used to eat
lii ) our trade balance arc not equal to the
task of disposing of $600,000,000.
Another great crop is nearing the harvest
time , and another year of largo exports is
before us.
We produced $60,000,000 of gold last year
and $33,000,000 worth of silver , The lOon-
dike region hiss begun to send in its second
year's yield , whIch must be considerably
larger than thio outptit last year.
Our money circulation has been very
largely increased dtirlng the Inst two years ,
and the use of the new 3 per cents by the
banks will result in another important increase -
crease in the voltunmo of money. Cheap
money facilitates business ,
The business of the country is in an tin-
usually sound and healthy conditIon. There
is ample confidence , a buoyant belief Ia the
future and courage and enterprise equal to
the opportunitIes that Invite them.
There Is but one feature of the eltuntlon
which even the most conservative business
man would admit was a source of uneasi-
ness. That is time possibility of European
complications growing out of our war with
Spain. It is a possibility so remote and one
that might be successfully met in so many
ways that it may without imprudence be
wholly neglected In business calculations.
Ihesides , it is apossibihity that grows less
with every passing day.
There are years of wonderful prosperity
coming.
