STRAWS SHOW Y WHICH |||l y, 4.
WAY THE WIND D.. BLOWS 1 IS

1t is customary for people to consider
business brisk or dull just as conditions
are reflected in the daily and weekly
papers of the country in their news
columns. Now, while to a large extent
this is good guide to follow, there
is another part Of the newspaper that
is still more certain indication, or
positive proof of conditions Of the coutl-
try, and that will be found in the bust
ness departments Of the papers.
The financial department. Of any big
daily is more carefully edited than the
editorial page. The advertisements re-
fleet the true business conditions better
than the news columns. The inquiries
coming over the business counter means
more than the news over the wires or
in the mails. s5;N @s.>< y #%S,*{}'s
But these are things that are hidden
away from the public eye, hence escape
with slight notice.
Now, if we are to judge of what the
times are going to be in North Dakota
we must take into consideration many
things, not the least of which are the
inquiries of business nature coming
to this office A big national bank in
an eastern city sends the cash for
good long subscription to the paper.
A wealthy business man in Chicago
says: Judging from what l see in the
Tribune your country interests me and
l want to know more about it. Give
me the address of reliable real estate
man that l can deal with" So it comes
from every direction. =
Enough inquiry comes from business
concerns asking about what the 1egis-
lautre is doing, or going to do, with
bills that affect the development of the
state in material way to make one
realize that the business eye is upon us
as never befor"
The advertiser is asking for space
and for rates on long contracts in such

More Objections Made to Michigan
Central's Plans.

What the residents east of the site
of the proposed new Michigan Gen.
trail terminal station most object TO
in the railroads plans for that I'M
provement Is the extension OF both
the Baker and Fourteenth-ave. via
ducts. By the arrangement proposed,
II would be necessary for persons
wishing to take the Baker cars to
climb stairway to the bridge, while
long climb would intervene between
those living north OF Baker-st. and the
Sherman cars. diminishing the patron
age of this three-cent line.
The Rev FIR. James G. Doherty, pas
tor of st. Vincent de Paul church, also
calls attention to the fact that the
plans take no note OF Francis-st.,
which is supposed to run parallel to
the present railroad right of way, but
which at present Is more lane than
street.
The common council will also be
called upon TO alter the street railway
arrangements SO as to provide car
service for the new station. The Bak-
er and Michigan lines are each dis
tant a couple of blocks from the sta
ton. while there is no north and south
line available Aid. Vernon has been
giving this matter attention. and will
suggest some change In the lines
when the general street railway situa-
ton comes UP before the council.
