The Glen Falls Times argues that many newspaper men resemble persistent debtors. It compares a farmer who sells 1000 bushels yearly for promises of payment with publishers who let debts pile up. A moment’s thought shows why a publisher has reason for persistent duncing.

Outlook for business revival amid Senate delays
The outlook for business is very encouraging despite Senate apathy to public welfare. The Sherman Silver Act dominates the situation and repeal would unlock funds and revive business. Washington services forecast favorable action though delays raise fears that gains by the lower Congress may be undone and slow the recovery. Wholesale trade reports rising orders and some price gains vs last year. Banks resume operations after withdrawals during the panic and mills reopen, creating employment for thousands. Money is plentiful and banks extend favorable credits, marking the most encouraging feature.
