Would you think of going to jew
elry store to buy a suit OF clothes
where they know nothing about
clothes? Certainly not. Then would
you go to a dry goods store to buy
jewelry where they know nothing
about jewelry? The prices might be
cheaper but the quality would most
certainly be far cheaper. tt
The business fraternity of Malta is
never slow when it comes to ad-
vertisng their merchandise and busi-
ness, and this being more noticeable
each year. This year the business
men of Malta are distributing some
handsome and beautiful, as we'll AS
useful calendars that the writer has
ever had occasion to see. This shows
that prosperity has mingled very gen.
erously within the bounds Of Malta
the past year.
VT. O'Riley, the we'll known real
estate dealer of East Wagner, re-
turned last Saturday from an extend
ed business visit to st. Paul and Min
neapolis. Mr.. O'Riley states that
while in Minnesota he found that the
people are very anxious to come to
the Milk River Valley, not only set
tiers but also men who have cOnsid-
cradle money to invest in real estate
and in new industries. He further
stated that he believed next year
would see hundreds of people invade
the valley from Minnesota who will
buy up land and that many new
towns will spring up like mushrooms
as result of the large influx of peo-
pie.

TIE BENEFITS OF THE
BOULEVARD SCHEME

to the State, should specify wherein Essex and Passaic and
Camden and other counties remote from the coast are to be bene
Sed, and also why the coast counties should not do what these
counties do, pay for their own local improvements that are in
tended to promote real estate interests. The coast county rep
resentatives cling to the purpose to make the State foot the
whole bill. They are not content that the State shall pay only
one-third. The cost OF road improvements begun or contracted
Tor before the boulevard scheme was exploited and having no
relevancy TO it, is to be foisted on the State as the coast coun.
ties share OF the expense, and the State is to pay the cost of
maintenance OF these local improvements with all the rest of the
500 miles OF road to be constructed under the boulevard plan.
1t will require a great deal of explanation and demonstration to
induce the legislative representatives of the interior counties to
saddle the boulevard scheme on the treasury. Buncombe won't

SERIOUS FOR
LEATHER

for the exclusive benefit OF a great predatory trust, INJURIES a vast
manufacturing industry, gives the foreign manufacturer an ad-
vantage in our own markets, and makes all kinds of leather
goods dearer for the people, Especially in the shoe trade the
competition by British manufacturers is keen. They have the
great advantage OF free hides from Canada, Australia and Argen-
tina, and if the II per cent. tariff on hides is maintained for
the American meat trust, the market for American shoes in Eng
land will soon be closed, while British shoes, made by American
machinery, will drive American shoes out of Europe. Lower cost
OF raw material is always an alLeonquerng advantage. 1t may
be true that the meat trust, by its command of the out
put OF American hides, may be able To establish a great mo-
nopoly in tanning and also, as predicted, monopolize the shoe
industry. In this age OF great combinations that is easily
possible Industry thus organized and centralized might DO what
the steel trust does, sell its surplus abroad cheaper than at
home But that would be poor compensation to The manufac-
turers driven out Of business or to the American consumer who
would pay monopoly prices for his shoes. There s a serious out
look in the shoe and leather industries. There would be a most
encouraging one if the Is per cent. tax on hides, which the Senate
has retained in the tariff at the demand OF the meat trust, should
be abolished.
