GETTING CAUGHT.

Irreverent and slang using America

logue is: "Don't Get Caught" says
the Missoulian. Indeed. it seems,
looking the thing over carefully, that
this country has accepted the amend
ment. We talk. play and work with
men whom we know to be absolutely
crooked. without it entering our
minds to shun them and their type.
Different it is, however, when one Of
oar friends, or our fellow laborers, or
our neighbor is caught IN some act of
criminality. Then, we cannot see
hun on the street, we exclude him
from our homes. we keep our daugh-
ters and wives from knowing him or
from coming into amy sort Of contact
with him. lie is without the pale.
Yet. we continue to associate with
others OF his kind, knowing full well
that these are no better than the man
whom we have ostraciZed. lie has
been caught, You see; he has broken
the eleventh commandment. This is
condition and not Il theory, TO use

BUSINESS CONDITIONS
ARE VERY GOOD

While the reports from the east rs
to business conditions are not of the
rosiest, the reverse is true as to Mon
tana and North Dakota. The st.
Paul Pioneer Press OF recent date
contains interviews with wholesale
dealers and jobbers in st. Paul on
trade conditions in these two states.
and they all talk optimistically, es-
peclally about Montana.
The st. Paul paper says that after
consulting their order books st. Paul
jobbers are generally of the opinion
Montana is in more prosperous con-
dition than ever before. Much of
this is attributed to the influx of peo-
pie to that state, whose money has
helped to swell considerably the
amount formerly in circulation.
Another thing said to have helped
Montana considerably, especially in
the eastern section, has been dry far
ming. This country suffered to some
extent by the drouth, but improved
methods of agriculture contributed
to keep the crop nearer the normal
yield.
Montana is in good shape" one
wholesale dry goods man is quoted AS
saving. "While things are moving Il
little slower in North Dakota, still it
is astonishing how we'll collections
keep up. The merchants are hopeful.
but are placing their orders carefully
and cOnServatively in order to re-
main Oh the safe side of their le.;g-
ers.''
\ similar statement of the situation
was made by wholesale grocer. who
declared the volume of business be-
ing done by his company in these
states larger than they had ever OBJ
tanned before.
"We can find nothing to complain
of in the trade conditions for this en-
tire territory" he said. ''Ordinarily

been shipped 0 primary points,
and, owing to the slack demand, the
movement from the farms to the ele-
vators is no longer encouraged.
The theory that the natural law of
supply and demand can be ha,nessed
and driven by artificial agencies is,
therefore, seen to be untenable eN-
cept in times OF scarcity. Their sue
cess. in any event, can be but short
lived. Any attempt to ''bull" prices
in the face of heavy yield spells
ruin-the vanishing of the accumu-
lations Of years.

COLD STORAGE PLIGHT

The new theory that the law Of sup
ply and mand has been "regulat-
ed, and t.>1e' y prevented from being
the medium of slumps and swings in
prices. is undergoing severe test in
the West, according to current dis
patches from the9 big packing and
storage centers. The supply OF farm
and dairy products is running so far
ahead Of the demand" that the mid
dlemen must shortly find an outlet
for their goods at any sacrifice. Two
prime factors in bringing about the
present conditions are said to be the
record production in toolstuils and Il
decreasing demand from the colsum-
ing east. IN the first place. there is
glat Of supplies in the open market
which the storage interests can not
handle, and thus have chance to
maintain prices. Or, if they were
able to keep the surplus stuff Off the
market, the load would be too heavy
to carry, in view of the decreasing de-
mand. Values. which have been
shading off since early fall, are on the
verge of Il horizontal drop.
The stagnation in the industrial
centers of the east has had the effect
of making the winter a hard one.
Thousands Of families which for
years have been living on the scale of
plenty that high wages and steady
employment make possible find them
selves compelled to reduce expenses
to Il minimum. which naturally cuts
into the income of the stores and
shops with which they deal. and so
on through the middle class of So
ciety. Every day adds to the num-
Der of empty larders. The west and
south had not felt the pinch appreci-
ably until the end of the year-per-
haps the south, except in the cotton
mill centers, has not felt it yet hut
during the past two weeks the COM
mercial reports from the west have
been growing less cheerful. The late
report showing 100000 freight cars
idle reflects the changed conditions in
the matter OF east and west traffic.

COMPTROLLER SAYS
BANKS ARE STRONG

Another year Of prosperity and sol
id growth for the banks Of the United
States is recorded in the annual re-
port of the comptroller Of the curren-
cy.
State banks, savings banks, trust
companies and other financial institu-
tons and some $1,000 others are rep
resented.
During the financial year Of 1910 the
combined resources of the 1000 ma
tional banks Of the United States
grew to approximately $40, OOO, OOO, 900.
On September last their loans and
discounts hal reached IS, 400 ,OOO, 900,
an amount never before equalled,
They count nearly $40, OOO, 900 Of over
draft in their assets. a practice which
there is no law to stop.
Combining all banks, it is evident
that the banking power OF the nation
has grown in 10 years from 1897
banks. with Il capital OF s $50, OOO, 900
and deposits of 81 1888 900 900, to more
than $4,000, 0OO,GOO and deposits Of
nearly $l6, OOO. OO0. 900. The combined
loans and discounts have grown TO
more than sig ,O0O, 900, 900.
With the exception of banks which
have become lnsolvent as a result of
defalcations or other dishonesty, fail
ures have been almost wholly due to
incompetent or reckless management,
the report saws, and persistent viola
tions of the national banking laws.
"A large percentage of the banks
that have failed should have gone i'll
to voluntary liquidation before they
reached the conditions which precipi-
tated the failure - says Comptro Her
Murray.
The report says it is the intention
of the present administration to rid
the national banking system of weak
banking by earlier liquidation.
