The Caldwell watchman. (Columbia, La.) 1885-1946, 1912-06-07

President Maurin, of the La
fourche board, is the first to take
the advice Of the governor. I'M
mediately on the receipt of the
letter he wrote Secretary McCune
asking him to notify the boards
attorney that his services will no
longer be required. If the La
fourche board needs any advice
or legal services in the future, it
will apply, therefore, to the
encouragement
The governors letter has not
only been sent to the country,
but to all State boards in the city
which have been indulging the
luxury of special attorneys, Some
of them, we presume, will be re-
luctant to cut the Cordial knot on
the ground that they crnnot very
we'll get along without special
legal assistance; but public senti-
ment will sustain the governor
in his course, and so later we ex-
pect the Legislature also to Go SO.
If the consequent burden
proves greater than the attorney
general, with his present force,
can bear, that official is entitled
to have another assistant added
to his staff.
But the system under which
every board and public institu-
tuion has been permitted to have
a lawyer of its own has outlived
its usefulness, and the reform
Governor Hall is proceeding to
put into effect has already been
too long delayed.
For six or eight years, it has
been under fire, but the influence
of the board attorneys heretofore
has been so far-reaching and so
effective that no previous Legis-
|ature has had the courage to
wipe the system out. Thus it
grew into an abuse and it was
me of the handicaps which help
I'd to bring about the defeat of
he machine in the last campaign.
The time has gone by when
platforms were considered mere
y stepping stones to reach public
,ffice. The people. now insist
hat a candidate shall keep his
promise or pay the penalty of
recall. No governor can so
'eadily assure the success of his
administration as by an earnest
effort to do so. The people will

axes he makes if he convinces
hem that he is sincerely striving

DEMAND FOR MONEY
SHOWS INCREASE
Steady Improvement Noted in
a Progressive Financial
Market.

Reports from local bankers during
the week indicate sound, progressive
financial market. with the demand for
money for building and improyeme Mt
purposes the principal feature. Summer
activities, particularly In the building
line, are now reaching their highest
point, and though most of the larger
financed there still is much need of
ready cash for incidental work. This
is particularly true of small irrigation
projects throughout the state. In fact
the farmers have created considerable
demand for cash with their improve
ments along this line,
An assurance of excellent crops both
in Idaho and Utah, which is the trade
field for local banks. casts a roseate
hue on future prospects. Even now the
handling of the crops is beginning to
figure in banking circles and the next
few weeks will soc tremendous de-
mand from this direction.
Clearing house figures for the week
show an nndeniable Improvement over
corresponding conditions on the money
market a year ago. The total clear
ings for the week were S6,39S, ,2Sl.l5 as
compared with S5,6S2, 2,972.54, an in
crease Of Sis, 5,30S.61.

ment Of general conditions during the

is far more favorable than last year
with one or two exceptions. Owing to
the backward weather the corn crop is
two weeks late. which may subject 1T
to early frosts in the fall, but week
or two Of hot weather later in the sea
son is expected to remedy this possible
defect.
1t is the general opinion of bankers
that the actions of the two national po:
litical parties in checking the wave of
radicalism that threatened both parties
earlier in the year will have SOLDERING
and steadying influence on business.
The American people have shown, it is
thought, that they are adverse to revo-
lutionary proposals., thus removing an
important danger from business calcu-
lations.

CITY'S PURCHASE
INCREASES VALUES

AS result OF the recent purchase
by the city Of a twenty-one-a acre tract
along the Jordan river with the ex-
pressed purpose Of creating a public
park, property values in that region,
particularly in Oakley subdivision, are
climbing steadily. according to the
Hubbard Investment company. There
have been more inquiries for lots in
that section during the last week than
for many months past Since the park
improvements began. more than score
of lots have been sold, and there are
now seven modern houses under con-
struction. Prospects of immediate i'm
provemeDt in the street car service is
another value-enhancing factor.
In Douglas park, where the same
firm is interested. three more houses
were begun during the week and a
number of lots for building purposes
were sold. The company is now nego.
tiating a deal by which an entire block
is to be sold in the near future An
other deal contemplates the sale Of six
lots in bulk

BARGAIN WEEK IN
CIRCLES OF TRADE
Salt Lake Shoppers Have
Profited by Many Special
Sales Under Way.

Local commercial activity during the
week, though naturally somewhat lax
at this season of the year, was wen
up to normal. Under the impetus OF
special sales the retailers continue 10
do a volume Of business that more
than counteracts the natural tendency
toward dullness Tho cool weather OF tne
week was factor to be contended wlth'
say the big store managers, but on tne
whole the trade was entirely satlsiac'
tory.
The big department stores, partlcu'
larly those that plan to remove their
business to the new retail district at
Third South and State streets later IN
the summer, continue to set the pace OF
traordinary bargains for the buying
public. So fur as the purpose of tho
stores Is concerned, that Of reducing
their stocks to a minimum, the sales
are proving phenomenally successful. 1t
is the intention of the managements to
continue these sales at intervals until
their object has been accomplished.
Meanwhile Salt Lake shoppers will be
reaping the benefits.
Warmer weather, such as is prom.
ised by the weather man for the com
Ing Wcek, Will result IN an increased de-
mand for midsummer goods, especially
feminine apparel. and most of the stores
are planning on special offers in these
lines.
Business Of all classes has been uni
formly firm during the week. Retail
lumber and hardware companies are
reaping a goodlv harvest as result of
the steadily maintained home building
operations throughout the city. Fisher
men g supplies, sporting goods and
outfits are furnishing an angle
Of trade to be rcckoned with in the gem
eral total of business, In fact all lines
that cater to the vacationist are thriv.
ing exceedingly well.
An important factor that is begin
ming to be felt in earnest in the shop
ping centers is the influx Of tourists
To be sure, most Of the visitors linger
but day or two, but the steady stream
of them has created class of buying
public that has helped TO swell the vol
ume of business to noticeable degree.
Certain lines Of business, naturally,
profit more than others from this class
of trade, but the general results are the
same nevertheless.
