Sornsen and Peter Lee went to Will
mot Monday to take the first degree
in Masonry. Ira Woodward, Ben
Wilson and Burt Fuller accompanied
them as chaperones. They all re-
turned Tuesday safe and sound and
none the worse for wear.
Will Stiles has returned from his
second trip to Washington and says
is now satisfied to stay in South Da-
kota Will says the poor land out
there isn't worth having and he thinks
the good land too high in price. He
says every farmer in the state wants
to sell out and that half the houses in
the cities are labeled s'for sale"
The attorneys for the harvester
company which made Mr.. Korstad SO
much trouble last summer have con-
cluded discretion Is the better part of
valor and they have settled up the
Judgment which Korstads secured
against them at the last term of
court. In addition to over 800 that
they paid on the Judgment that COM
pany have had all the costs to pay
and all together it makes quite sum.
1t is quite likely that the represen-
tative of the company who. started the
trouble wont be quite so fresh next
time.
Rural route inspector Brady was
here the first of the week to inspect
the proposed route running north
from Summit. AS near as we can
learn he was not very favorably i'm
pressed with conditions as he found
them, and it is doubtful if the service
will be recommended at this time.
Good roads are prime requisite in
securing rural free delivery and the
roads through the hills to the north
are certainly not first-class at the
present time. If the people up that
way want free mail delivery they
should look we'll to the matter Of road
improvement. Mr.. Brady went from
here TO Wilmot to inspect couple
OF proposed routes out from that
place.

Pierre July 17-W. B. Saunders,
treasurer of the State ST. Louis fair
commission has returned to the state
treasury Sl252.94 unexpended bal
ance out of the $35, 900 appropriated
for the South Dakota exhibit at that
exposition. The members of the
commission, Messrs. S. w. Russell of
Deadwood, l.. T. Boucher, of Eureka,
and w. B. Saunders, of Milbank, and
their secretary. George +. Farmer, of
Madison have earned the thanks of
the people of the state for the manner
in which they handled the funds en-
trusted in their care, and for the
showing they made at ST. Louis. In
turning back funds into the state
treasury, their work stands out in
contrast with that of the old world IS
fair commission, which expended
$50. 900 and for which every legis-
lative session from that time has been
called upon to provide deficiency ap-
propriations.

entire profits but run no risk with
respect to losses. The company as
sumes entire responsibility for the
losses, but is In a position TO save the
stores from that result by virtue OF
retaining their management and d.
rection. That of itself would be suffi-
cient justification for retaining the
management, although perhaps a
more potent reason Is that the COM
pany through its financial resources
and its executive organization is bet
ter able to run the stores successfully
than any purely voluntary association
among the workmen wonld be. The
only complaint or criticism which has
come to the company so far in con-
nection with the general scheme has
arisen out of the fact that one of the
stores, which the first year paid Its
trading employees dividend of nine
per cent, was only able to pay div
idend last year of seven per cent.
That decrease in dividend WIS the
occasion of some criticism on the part
of few unthinking men who did not
stop to consider that dividends de-
pend upon varying considerations.
1t offers its own commentary upon
what the result would be If employees
were possible sharers, if that were
practicable, not only of the dividends
but of the losses.
It would usually be unnecessary,
and If so mistake for business
enterprise situated in city or in a
general community of considerable
size to run corporation stores. The
real occasion for their existence
should be the necessity or the protec-
ton and convenience of employees,
because of the non urban situation or
isolation of the business. But though
such situation exists, if they are
run, as they ordinarily have been, as
the private business of the corpora
ton, there is always risk of their
being disturbing element. However
well managed, however moderate
their prices and however Indifferent
the company in fact may be as to
whether it's employees trade in them
or not, still it is always liable TO the
SUSPICION budU 1LS cHl6I OD10cG WIFI
respect to such stores is private gain.
Such a cooperative store as is de-
scribed above relieves the company
from any suspicion and by removing
possible ground of misunderstand
ing ought to promote that healthy
feeling of confidence and co-opera-
ton which it is SO desirable should
exist between employer and employees.
1t ensures also to the employer sat
isfactory and successful store. A cor
poration is of course fairly entitled,
as recompense for its management
and for the risk of its capital, to a
reasonable profit fro store bust
ness conducted by it, but since they
are, or at least ought to be, profits of
a purely incidental transaction for
the necessity and convenience of it's
employ es, it is worthy of considera-
ton whether it would not be better
for any company to turn such profits
over to the men in their entirety or
at least to permit the men TO share in
them.-Frank G. Partridge, in May

An rxperimen, in Corporation stores.
conrrNuEp FRoN pAeE Two.


During the year 1904 the total sales
at the three stores for the whole year
were s40s, SOS 80, of which $500, 1928
was TO employees of the company, and
the balance or s109, 1858 was to nom
employees. The profits of the stores
were for the year s27, 331.44 or 81
per cent upon their total sales, which
gave a dividend to the employees at
the Proctor store of ten per cent on
the amount of their purchases, to
those at Center Rutland nine per
cent, and to those at West Rutland
seven per cent, an average of over
nine per cent; and these dividends
were paid to the employees in cash in
the month of January, 1905. With the
dividend there has been delivered
both years to each trading employe a
printed statement, signed by the re-
spective committees, showing the de-
tails of the business done and the set
Element of the same, with the amount
of his purchases and dividend filed in.
Under the present arrangement the
employees receive their goods at less
than their original cost plus their pro-
portion of the expense of the stores,
as they get back not only the profit
on their own goods but the profit on
sales made to non-employes. The
total volume of business for the year
1908 was $3.50, o02 55, and for the year
1904, S40S, sos 80. Some of this differ
ence is probably due to a normal
growth in the business of the stores,
but part of it at least is presumably
due to its cooperative feature. The
employees appreciate very much the
present method of conducting the
stores. Indeed it is doubtful If any
of the many schemes of Industrial
betterment which the Vermont Mar
bic Company has undertaken in be-
half of its employees has in proportion
to it's size given them more satisfac-
ton.
The company retains no financial
interest whatever in the profits of the
stores. During the year the expense
of salaries, merchandise, etc., for
each store is charged as paid to that
store, and in the settlement at the
end of the year the company is cred
tied rent for the store buildings and
four per cent interest upon the cap
ital actually invested in the business.
Beyond thatit receives nothing either
for superintendent or otherwise.
This of course eliminates any posi-
BILE selfish Interest in having the en-
ployes trade at the store or any
ground of suspicion that the company
miaht have such an interest or desire.

Arrangement the employees have the

Remarkable az the statement may
seem, The Journal believes it viii be

When the timber is gone something
will then have to be done with tae

revert to the state for taxes-common
business sense will prevent that.
They will on the other hand be settled
up AID developed for agricultural pur-
poses and
One acre of Florida soil, under
proper development, will produce in
one year agricultural products of more
value than all the timber and turpeu,
tine that it could produce in fifty
years
Let them despoil the state of its for
ests If they will. The people in the
state will at least get the benefit OF
the business which the Industry OF
the despoiler creates. and the forests
themselves are absolutely worthless
until utilized for either turpentine OF
timber.
What We want in Florida more than
anything else is agricultural develop
ment. but that development win never
materialize until the men who own
the land go about it in business-like
way, demonstrate its resources, and
people it with healthy. vigorous class
of immigrants. When the timber and
turpentine industries have been work
ed out this viii be done, but not be
