QUESTIONABLE PuILCY.--ln nearly every
newspaper that is published in u town that
has entered upon the modern system of
| high pressure enterprise we find the move
mcnt referred to rs boom and the booming
est words that are to he found are used in
speaking Of the enterprises that the project
is under way and being driven by the latest
system of puff and mutations there is fast
crystallzing into form n purely "boom'

shaken up by the dime show mans jnrgon.
1t Is certainly all well meant and possibly
reaches The end desired, but we doubt il. 1t
would seem to us under like conditions that
we should prefer to beget the idea that there
was no boom or balloOnlng about it that
the movement was on Il solid basis that the
projectors were conservative, while courage
Gus and cntcrprising; that prices were not
to be forced beyond the line that they might
naturally be expected to preserve under
Legitimate pressure Of an already assured
basis OF substantial business secured. To
assume that a great movement is under way
and ut the same time not BE- able to point to
anything more substantial than a promise
that these things will be, IS in our judgment
the reverse of the correct method ofdrccting
such enterprises. One or more valuable
industries secured in advance and upon the
safe basis of business promise that such
accomplished facts must provide. would
more likely float such movement, than all
the tall talk and writing that could he pur
chased Mt the hands of the racicst advance
circus agent. These movements are suppos.
ed to bring lasting good to the town in
which they are located and the only founda-
ton upon which to build for the future is
that of legitimate business fact Il boom
appeals to the Spectator and no branch of
industry will to-day stand the strain OF
speculative prices for any great length of
time. We imagine that of all the disconso.
late people in the world, those least rcconcil-
ed to their fate are the inhabitants of Il town
! with burstcd boom and to deliberately
engineer one, not having in advance any
assurance of pernancy, such as the founding
of some great industry that belongs to the
staple and legitimate business of the country
is almost a crime
To those engineering booms we would
recommend study of the essential condl-
tons, under the old recipe, of Il rabbit pot
