President NJ. E. Ingalls, has the
ory that all that Is lacking for the
revival of good times is confidence.
"There are fifty millions of people
ready to buy and set the tidal wave
OF prosperity in notion" he says,
"if there was reliance upon the fu-
ture." He illustrates his point by a
good story which he recently heard,
and which is in substance as follows:
A conservative old German picked
up a paper, and read over his pipe
that there was to be a war and hard
times. When he went to his wine
house that evening, this patriarch
told the proprietor Of his fears, and
said thencelorward he would take a
cheaper bottle Of wine than had been
his wont. Mine host, In turn alarmed
at the outlook, ordered his milkman
to furnish him, from that date, less
milk and no cream. The dalryman,
in turn, stinted hiscows, buying less
food, and so It went on until the
whole neighborhood was In the
throes OF "hard times.n This had
gone on for "a few weeks when the
father Of the village picked up the

Joe Hersner Is once more num-
bered among our business men, and
right gladly do We welcome Joseph
back to our city. Sometime ago Mr..
Hersner took it into his head that he
was called to run a steam mill and
getting his eye on one down near
EarminFton sold out his furniture
store and embarked in the new en-
terprise. He discovered too late
that he preferred Spokane Falls to
all other places, and during the time
he was connected with the mill en-
terprise he was to be seen frequently
on the streets OF this city. Recently
he had an opportunity to dispose Of
his mill property which he did and
coming back here bought out j. S.
Cox, the furniture dealer and second
hand goods man, who has carried a
large and varied stock in the store
room on Howard street near the cor
ner Of Sprague. Joe is now fixed in
his new quarters and already shows
his old time energy. He is an ex-
cellent business man, a good citizen
and pleasant and accommodating
gentleman. His old friends gladly
welcome him back, and hope to see
him build up a large and lucrative
trade.

predicted and found that IT was Of
date two years old. That night at
the sinn: he resumed his "Leibfrau
milch," with expressions Of conf
dence in good times, the landlord re-
newed his liberal purchases, the
milkman bought richer feed for the
cattle, and 50 il went on, until the
whole village was in a week once
more prosperous.
"What we want is confidence"
said Mr.. Ingalls,. "The farmer will
then buy three yards Of calico in
stead Of one, and all will be we'll"

Many persons had an idea that
Mr.. Fitch would fail 10 carry out his
contract with the city for furnishing
electric lights for the purpose Of
Illuminating the streets. Soon after
securing the franchise Mr.. Fitch
made trip into the northern mines
that detained him much longer than
he expected and he did not return to
the Falls until few days ago. He
has been busy arranging for putting
in the lights ever since his return.
The plant is expected from Portland
this week and 1t will be set up in the
G. and c. flouIing mill. The posts for
the wires are now being put in place.
The council has indicated the posi-
tiOn OF the six lights. One will be at
the c. and c. mill, lighting the APP
proach to the Post street bridge, the
second at the corner of Howard and
Front streets, the third at the corner
Of Howard and Main streets, the
fourth at the cornerof Howard street
and Riverside avenue, the fifth at
the corner of Riverside avenue and
Post street, and the sixth at the de-
pot. Fitch will have everything
working on time, October 10th.
