BUSINESS CONDITIONS.

Officers of the First National Bank,
commenting on business and crop
conditions, say, AS broad statement
of the country's business condition,
there is some evidence of recession.
The tide, SO to speak, is not at the
full The ebb has set in and at pres
ent it is a question as to when the
tide will turn again.
During such a period of reflux
there are, naturally, varying degrees
of conviction as to the profitable linn
it's of the contraction. The optimist
sees very little to suggest any pro-
tracted spell of reaction; the pessi-
mist conjures many signs signifying
that curtailment must be drastic be-
fore another cycle of active prosper
ity can come. about.
In the West, primarily, the 1914
harvests will determine the course Of
events. It is long time to the
gathering of the crops but two fac
tors Of favorable nature may be
commented upon. The winter wheat
acreage is immense, the start has
been very favorable, in fact so excel
lent has the growth been as a result
of the mild fall that it has supplied
splendid pasturage in the drouth
stricken sections. There are COM
plants of insect life prevalent with
possibilities Of damage but a good
snowfall and colder weather, most
probable soon, will destroy the one
and give protection to the other. In
the spring wheat country full advan-
tage has been taken of the climatic
conditions to prepare for the spring
seeding. The Farmers have greater
area of fall blowing done this year
than normal and that improves the
chances for an excellent harvest.

In some of the stores here there
are girl cashiers who handle daily
hundreds or thousands of dollars.
Often they are in great haste. Any
error is charged against them. In
the end of the day they would be in

own profit, and this would be exacted.
Accurate cashiers at SIS a week!
One cashier resigned from her
position and discovery was made that
she had left a shortage of $3.50. A
collector was sent with orders to
bring back the money. When he
found the girls home observed its
haggard air of squalor, and heard her
tearful-and probably truthful
statement that if there had been an
error she did not know it, he went
back with the statement that the girl
had moved, and that he could not find
her. He knew that to lie was wicked,
but when he told me of the incident
he did not seem to have the lie on
his conscience much.

Most of the weekly press is in worse

POLICE OF COUNTRY PARTNERS

Washington, April 21.-Mrs. Kate
Richards O'Hare, editor of the Rip

The local police vigorously denied

wages paid the women workers. AS
the men cannot earn enough to sup

needed nourishment the women must
go to work. Their downfall, in many
instances, follows.

The following beautiful poem
was read by Congressman Heflin
in the House, in memory of Les
ter Bryant, the Kentucky Boy
Corn Grower, who lost his life in
Washington City by blowing out
the gas:
''The hoe that he welded is covered with
dust,
And the plow that he guided is still;
The trace chains are red with gathering
rust,
While he sleeps on the slope of the hill.
"My heart reaches out to his loved ones
alone,
For how sadly they miss him there now;
But God in His goodness will comfort the
home
Where the little boy guided the plow."
Commissioner Newman of Ken

Bryant's entire crop for seed corn,
the proceeds going to a monu-
ment fund for Bryant.

'The August Primary is now less than
six months ahead. Any person who has
an ambition to serve the people and pos
sesses the legal qualification, may be
candidate in this election, free of all cost.
AS it is ga free for all, candidates will be

county throughout the state. The new law
places the election in the hands of the
people There has been such an
increase in the amount of tax funds re-
quired in the last ten or fifteen years and
in view of the fact that there has been so
little said about this feature of county gov
eminent since the increased amount of tax
collected, it would be quite natural that
the people should be making some inquiry
along this line. With this view of the sit
