CAMPAIGN HURTS BUSINESS

LONDON, December 11.-Neither Prime
Minister. Asquith's speech nor Mr.. Bal
tours manifesto yesterday can be said to
have much advanced the political situation
or to have markedly stimulated interest
therein. Both men excel in the house of
commons itself, but neither possesses to
any conspicuous degree the gift of STIR
ring to the depths the popular enthu-
siasm outside MIR. Asquith. of course.
had a magnificent reception by his great
and unanimous audience. but the top note
of enthusiasm was only struck twice
during the evening, once when Mr.. Lloyd
George entered the hall. and again when
he rose to propose vote of thanks to
the prime minister.
Judging from last night. tie radical
enthusiasts look upon him as the real
leader, not the prime minister. 1t Is dlr-
ficult, even impossible, to confine the Is
sue of general election to one question,
but Mr.. Asquths speech made 1t evil
dent that the liberal party will endeaVor
to keep the attack on the house of lords
to the forefront. Other interests must
be considered. and the usual promises
were held out to Wales and Ireland, but
these were not dwelt upon.
The one pronouncement of Mr.. AS
Quths speech was contained in the
words: The will of the people as de-
liberately expressed by their elected rep
the lifetime of a single parliament be
made effective" While saying he favored
second chamber. Mr.. ASquith, beyond
the words just quoted and his declaration
that the absolute vote must Co., gave
no indication of how his party proposed
tn present second chamber,

Complaints of Breakfast Foods.

Most Of the complaints Of high prices
appear to be regarding breakfast foods
and cereals" said Mr.. Earnshaw. But
l doubt if anything can be done about it..
We know the manufacturers are making
enormous profits. how great we have no
means Of learning with any degree of ac-
curacy.
There is no indication. however, of
any combination among the manufactur-
ers of cereal foods. In the case of foods
made from oats there is striking SINH
larity in the size of the packages sold,
but the prices ali vary.
Last year the price of oats was high.
Nearly all oatmeal manufacturers reduced
the size of their packages from 2 pounds
to about ~ pounds or less, but did not
change the price This year the cost of
oats is less. but the short packages con-
tinue in use.
"And yet the prices Of all these articles
vary so that except for the uniformity
in the weight of the packages, there is
nothing to indicate a combination.
I'm most cases cereal products have
marked Municipalities. There are the oat
foods. the wheat foods and the corn
foods. Each has separate and distinct
characteristics and, in my opinion, there
is no chanceN for a combination.
1.-THE fact that the prices vary widely
is another indication that no agreement
exists between the manufa cturers. Fur
thermore, these manufacturers are fight
ing each other all the time.

ABOUT BREAKFAST CEREALS
Then There Is Salt-Fixing Prices
for Wholesaler and
Retailer.

Speaking for the Wholesale Grocers
Association of the District OF Columbia,
of which he is president, B. B. Earnshaw
said last night that the association had
taken no steps toward getting legal ac-
ton to break up the alleged food trust"
That manufacturers of certain prod.
ucts are charging exorbitant rates, Mr..
Earnshaw frankly admitted. He said
there was no evidence, however. except in
one Or two instances. of combination in
restraint of trade. such as could be
reached under the Sherman act. In those
cases the combinations, If there are such.
are SO skillfully arranged that 1t would
be extremely difficult to prove their ex-
istence, in his opinion.
Individual wholesalers have appealed to
United States Attorney Baker in this
matter. Mr.. Baker has promised to take
action whenever proper evidence is sub
mitted to him.

Ten Years Growth.

The Minneapolis Journal In a
review of the rapid development OF
the states Of North and South Dakota
and Minnesota during the past ten
years, makes the following statement
showing Increase in number OF banks
and deposits. 1t is a remarkable EVIL
dence of prosperity.
North Dakota had ten years ago, "a
national and 81 state banks, or Ill In
all. Today North Dakota has 132
national and 439 state banks, or ST.,
and in South Dakota the national
banks have increased from 26 to 80, the
state banks from 1874 to 1876, and the
total number from 100 to 526. The
banking history Of the United States
does not present a parallel and the
gain in numbers is only that which In
creasing population, the settling OF
new country and greater business vol
ume has made necessary.
North Dakota, ten years ago, had
bank deposits of 90, 100000. Today
North Dakota has s63,1l5,0OO.
South Dakota, ten years ago had
bank deposits Of 9,7l3, 600. Today
South Dakota has $40. LOG, 900.
Minnesota, ten years ago had bank
deposits Of $50, $40, 900. Today Mime
sofa has S276, 1884, 900.
The total ten years ago was S78, 1885,
600. The--total today Is $40, POS, 900.
The ten year increase Is 1922, or, 900.
In the brief span of ten years the
railroads have heightened their mile
age greatly. The land area under
cultivation has increased immensely.
a fact not made evident alone by the
familiar figures that relate to the
grain culture, but found rather In
convincing form In the figures that
relate to agriculture that IS diversi-
fed. The single item of q gain in the
creamery industry from practically
nothing, to a magnitude In ten years
which called for the payment to farm
ers OF not less than go, 100000 for
cream sold, is n perhaps less famil-
lar illustration, as Is also the fact
that while two years ago Minnesota
dairy farmers reported 400, 1928 cows on
the farms, In the year past they were
found to have increased the number
to $4,000. There is every likelihood
that the close of the year 1909 will find
close to 600, 900 cows on the dairy
farms, and this for Minnesota alone.
North Dakota and South Dakota
have made gains smaller In actual
numbers, but fully as great relatively.
1t makes but a minor item In the
summary Of the permanent wealth Of
the northwest.

Bainbridge's Cattle Top The
Market.

A. II. cambridge of Dayton town
ship, won a notable victory for Lin
coin county, last week while on the
Chicago stock market. He took six
cars Of his own cattle 100, in all, cat
tie that he had raised and fattened
on his fine half section farm bought
last fall from Henry. Nienstadt. Mr.
cambridge said that he had always
found it a difficult matter to evenup
with the Kansas and Nebraska cat
tlemen, but this time he beat them
all selling his one hundred for $3.50
per hundred, and it was the highest
price paid for any cattle that day or
that week, and he feels justly proud
Of the record. Kansas and Nebraska
men were there in competition and
they could hardly believe their eyes
when they saw the cambridge bunch.
Our Lincoln county boomer convinced
them that South Dakota could raise
the finest cattle and corr that man
ever looked upon.

WINGED BURGLARS,

Buchner in his Psychic Life Of
Animals speaks of thievish bees
which, in order to save themselves the
trouble of working, attack well
stocked hives in masses, kill the SEN
tinels and the inhabitants, rob the
hives and carry off the provisions.
After repeated enterprises Of this de-
scription they acquire taste for rob-
berry and violence. They recruit whole
companies, which get more and more
numerous. and finally they form reg
ular colonies Of brigand bees. But it
is stilf more curious fact that these
brigand bees can be produced arti-
ficially by giving working bees mix
ture Of honey and brandy to drink.
The bees soon acquire taste for this
beverage, which has the same disas
trous effect upon them as upon men.
They become i'll disposed and irritable
and lose all desire for work, and final
~, when they begin to feel hungry
they attack and plumber the well sup
piled hives.
