gold lost to the countryl But this
average Of $500 year for every for

ing capacity is evidently too large,
though when we consider the saving
capacity even on small wages (and
many of them make big wages) Of
many classes of immigrants and the
well known custom among these
notably the Italians, Austrians and
Finns-to send to what they still call
"home" the larger share of their
earnings, it is not so greatly in excess
of the actual amount as would a,
first appear. But even halve it, calcu.
late the average amount sent by the
Greek immigrants to be twice the
sum sent by the average immigrant
of other nationalities, and the amount
sent abroad each year is SO immense
that less prosperous, less wealthy

FOR CONSERVATION.

The December topic for converse
tion bids fair to be the conservation
OF natural resour 3es. Washington is
to have four meetings early IN the
month, each of which will deal with
some phase of the general subject.
The first Meeting Of the commits
sion appointed to have the work in
charge Will be held on Dec. 1. A
week later there will be a second
meeting of the governors of states
and territories or their representatives.
At the same time the southern COM
mercial congress will Assem- BILE to
consider what can be done to awaken
the south on the subject of its natural
resources. Before it adjOurns the ma
tional rivers and harbors congress will
begin it's annual meeting.
At the same time the congress of
the United States will resume its
labors. The members will recall the
words of the republican national
platform which indorse the movement
for conservation and declare the I'M
perative duty of adoption of large and
comprehensive plans for carrying on
systematic work.
All of these meetings will give
great impetus to the general move
ment. The idea is a popular one
in the United States. The need Of
wisdom in planning is apparent.
Men of great ability have been study
ing the problems with care during
recent months. The discussions in
the first fortnight of December should
result in the laying of broad and deep
foundations for enterprises of greatest
Importance to the future welfare of
our country. -Chicago Tribune.

homas experiment of guaranteeing
bank deposits seems not especially
bright.
This, of course, does not reflect
upon the soundness of the idea itself,
but only upon the manner in which
it is applied. No such scneme will
work unless the government which
does the guaranteeing has plenary
power over the banks. Otherwise, in
effect, the government must give its
credit to whatever chooses to ask for
it. The State Board sought to prevent
merely competitive and speculative
banking ventures-as was necessary
for the satisfactory operation of the

--Ong hundred rural schools in
Grant County have been supplied
with the necessary equipment to make
them schools of the first class.
County Supt. Broek6ft has been busy
tie past two weeks working on
their applications for the state aid
and is sending them together with
his recommendations to the state
acknowledgement. 1t depends wholly
on the coLafy superintendent recon-
mendation wdSther or not the schools
will receive this state aid OF 500 The
recommendation Blank when filed
out contains a completg report of the
school, from the experience and
qualification of the teacher to the
exact size OF the room. C'estaIn
requirements must be fulfilled or
the school can not receive the stare
aid. Questions regarding every depart
ment Of the school work and every
part of the equipment have to be
answered satisfactorily by the county
superintendent. AS can be seen it
means work on the part Of nearly
every one connected with the school
seeking to better itself by becoming
one of the first class. At the same
time figure how the districts and
county are mutually benefited. One
hundred schools in the county will
receive annually starting about March
10, 1909, fifty dollars each. This
amounts to quite a sum when taken
