SEATTLE, WASH., MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1914. COUNTRY-WIDE REPORTS we a New York, Jan. 19. DITOR SEATTLE STAR: Our republic bears a charmed life. No tem- porary lull can affect her. The man who decides otherwise will have cause for regret. She is fast becoming the Gulliver among nations, the others being small Lilliputians dancing around the giant they cannot control, In manufacturing al- \ ready our country stands supreme. In agriculture she must imitate Denmark, Bel- gium, Holland, Britain and others by improving her soil, thus growing heavier crops per acre than ever before. This accomplished, we have NOTHING to fear. We need neither a great army nor navy. No nation or nations combined could suc- cessfully invade us. None wishes to try. Copyrighted, 1914, by the S } Np : Washington, Jan. 19. Secretary DITOR SEATTLE STAR: In my opinion, the prospects for increased in- £ Labor dustrial activity in 1914 are very bright. The bituminous coal production is 10) } the best barometer by which to gauge the industrial condition of the country. The ilson: production of coal for the calendar year just closed will exceed that of the previous year by from 30,000,000 to 50,000,000 rons. New York, Jan, 19. DITOR SEATTLE STAR: 1 do not hesitate to express the opinion that if the railroads get the 5 per cent increase for which they are asking, the stimulus of this will be felt by EVERY interest throughout the country, and if the people in general come to understand that the present administration's policies are CON- STRUCTIVE, and neither harassing nor destructive, we shall before long see a general return of confidence and revival of activities AUNTED BY COMPLAINS| === J.H.

From Pittsburg is telegraphed the announcement that the mills of the United States Steel Corporation are about to re-employ 50,000 idle men before February 1. And already in Chicago 3,000 men have gone back to work in the - Illinois Steel company. In Seattle, business men report they look for a period of prosperity in 1914, although the lumber business, chief industry of the state, is expected to stand still until the interstate commerce commission revives the biggest market for be weed products among the railways of the country by allowing them to raise ir rates.

The St. Louis Star reports industrial conditions in that city are improving, as evidenced by state- ments of local banks to the effect that not for ten years have so many rew accounts been opened during the first two weeks of January, nor has the total amount of deposits during this fortnight been exceeded, i cece ee In Cleveland, wires the Cleveland Press, stee! mills are still running at 60 per cent of their capa city, but auto companies are rushed, as are the building trades. | The New Orieans Daily States declares for presperity’ for New Orleans, because Charles Goochaux, multl- millionaire planter, will run independent refineries ali year, to try to drive out the trust, importing ‘the en. tire Cuban cane crop. CANES or SRicinar DESIGN “With the elimination of the tariff discussion and the adoption of the curren- |cy bill, conditions are becoming settled, and SEATTLE IS JUSTIFIED IN LOOK- |ING TOWARD A PROSPEROUS YEAR,” said M. F. Backus, president of the Se- \attle National bank. “This would be absolutely certain if the outlook in the lumber industry were a trifle more cheerful. However, everything indicates much better times in this part of the country than in 1913.” 47 CANDIDATES | \ NEW YORK, | |T.
