BUSINESS CONDITIONS SOLID

THE New York Times than which
there is no harder-hcaded student oil
the state OF business, has recently
surveyed the whole field Of American
and industry. As the up
shot OF its Investigations it reports
the following finding:
THE country never represented
stronger possibilities. with a greater
number OF people out of debt. with
more money in the country banks and
financial centers. than exist at pres
ent. Our next big step forward will
be on an entirely more substantial ba-
sis than when we pushed so rapidly
ahead during our big boom and pros
pcrous days"
1t is impossible for careful observ-
ers OF the country as a whole not to
agree with these conclusions, says
the Baker City Democrat.
The reports from the Departments
Of Commerce and Agriculture, for the
good business of three-fourths of the
industrial corporations, the inspiring
conditions OF the crops are but a few
of the indications that business is in
a fair shape and that matters are
shaping themselves for a new period
Of sound prosperity and vast increase
in national wealth.
America has over 81 ,OOO.OOO.OOO to
its credit in the banks of Europe
available as soon as wanted. Our
exports Of manufacturers during the
first three months of the calendar
yea are the greatest we have ever
made in any quarter. Our securities
are being bought abroad in enormon.
volumes. For all farm products there
is a healthy demand.
Nowhere in the United States car
be found a disturbing factor OF con
sequence. There is no suggestion OF
a depression Of prices when the mar
kets of the world have to absorb the
mex yield Of American fields, Con
gress and the deliberations of the
Supreme Court have not checked the
tendencies toward the expansion o.
manufacturing and trade. No veal
spots appear in the economic condi
lions OF the country.

TO CURE THE
A ORDER HABIT

THE great difficulty the merchant
has to overcome in his efforts to
build up a business is the buying-by-
mail habit of his customers. but it
can be overcome. at least to a great
degree, by judicious advertising in
the local newspaper. says an ex-
change. The reason the mail-order
houses get the trade is that they tell
the customer just what they have for
sale and just the amount of cash it
takes to buy any article offered. The
customer. glancing at the advertise
ment of some aarticle-which he real
ly didn't know he needed-will. after
he reads the description and notes
the price. Immediately become a pur-
chaser.

writing signed by the party to be
charged"
For the purposes OF the motion to
dismiss, every allegation of the COM
plant is taken to be true and, there
fore, we have case presented in
which defendants agreed in writing
that, If plaintiff should perform a GER
tain act and a sale upon defendants
terms resulted, defendants would pay
plaintiff a specified commission; and
that plaintiff performed his part OF
the contract to the letter It is true
that the statute of frauds ought to
be enforced even though the results
may be harsh and inequitable, but
courts ought not to give it forced
and far-fetched construction where
such Interpretation will affect a fraud
greater than that which the statute
was designed to remedy.
We are of the opinion that upon a
fair construction this contract does
not contrayene the law. The judg-
ment is reversed and a new trial
ordered.

SHOWS GIRL
WAS FRUGAL
WITH TRUTH
UNITED PRESS LEASED wIRu.l

San Francisco, Dec. 29.-Most of to-
days session in the trial of DR.. Otto
G. Joslen on a charge Of betraying
Ethel Williams, under promise of mar
riage, was consumed by the defense
in the examination of Arthur H. Retz-
loft, and but one point established.
Retzloff admitted that he made Miss
Williams the beneficiary of an insur-
ance policy in January, 1909, and that
the girl at that time gave her age as
IS, at variance with the age now given
by her.
Efforts by Attorney Shortridge for
'Joslen to show anything derogatory to
the complaining witness in her rela-
tion with Retzlof fell flat. Joslen's
counsel was twice admonished by
Judge Lawlor, after long stretches of
unproductive questioning, to proceed
at once to some material issue, but
was unable to open up single vein
of testimony that reflected upon the
girl.
Retzloff frankly admitted making
presents to the girl. He declared that
he had never taken her to questionable
resorts. The witness took every op-
portunity to indicate that their rela-
tions were above reproach. He pune
tured one line of testimony which the
defense has apparently been holding
in reserve, by declaring, in answer to
question that the woman with whom
he had drinks in certain cafe was
not Ethel Williams, but another wo-
man, whom he volunteered to produce
in court.
Cross-examination of the witness is
in progress this afternoon.

To BEAUTIFY
AND IMPROVE
FAIR GROUNDS

Believing that if it can go before
the next legislature will a well-defined
scheme as to what improvements 1t
intends to make on the fair grounds,
that 1t can secure the appropriations
needed, the State Fair Board, under
the direction of Secretary Meredith,
is having maps made Of the grounds,
and also has instructed the state arch
itect to prepare a general scheme for
the identifying of the grounds and
for the construction Of buildings.
The board went before the last leg
islature and asked for an appropria-
ton of $150,O0O, and $4,000 was ap-
propriated. When this bill came up
to Governor West he vetoed it. The
baord not only intends to ask for this
appropriation, but much more added
to 1t, and has begun its campaign. A
typographical map of the grounds is
now being prepared by the engineer
ing department. This will show the
location of every building, tree and
shrub When completed it will be
turned over to State Architect Knigh-
ton, and, with it is a guide, he will be
asked to formulate a general scheme
of improvements, which will bring
the grounds up to state where they
will not only accommodate the fair
held here, but make them equal to
state fair grounds of other states.

A GREAT new
YEARS. PROGRAM
AT THE BLIGH
JOHN CHICK AND COMPANY CAP.
TURES EVERY AUDIENCE WITH
MAGNIFICENT SINGING AND
SPLENDID ACTING.

Whether or not John Chick and
company, the popular comedy actors
at the Bligh, deliberately planned 1t
or not, they have certainly saved the
best for the last. The sketch put on
last night was freely pronounced not
only the best this company has done
but the best short comedy seen in
Salem this season. Anyone wishing
to end the old year in happy frame
of mind can not afford to miss this
treat
When Miss Mabel Alberta sang her
solo the crowd realized that a good
play was on. Then Elmer Ballard in
his great bass voice followed with
another song he was enthusiastically
received. When Mrs. Chick rendered
her "And that's a man., the house
was convulsed. And when the end of
the unique and catchy plot was re-
vealed the applause would not sub
side until the company made the re-
turn for a second march around the
stage.
Other features of the last program
of the year are we'll up in quality to
the rare comedy put on by the John
Chick company. German and Phil
lips are in class all by themselves
when it comes to clever talking and
dancing stunts. The work of the or
chestra is attracting much attention
in complementing the pictures, in as
sisting the dancers, and in rendering
fine selections during the program.
Take in your last 1911 show at the
Bligh and laugh the old year out.
