Once again has the sale of the Big

desire to invest it's money in the pro-

P. G. JOHNSTON RETURNS

Representative P. G. Johnston and
bride returned this week from their
honeymoon trip in California. 1t was
reported when they left that they
would visit the Panama canal or
Honolulu, but Mrs. Johnson had al
ready visited the latter place and the
government work is not in condition
at Panama to show visitors the canal,
so they decided to see America first,
and toured California by auto.
Mr.. Johnston says business is dull
in California and there are great
numbers of men out of employment
and suffering for necessities. The
farmers and fruit raisers are not
prosperous and but for the expected
influx of visitors to the exposition
next year with the attendant invest
ments and spreading of expense
money the outlook for the state would
be bad indeed.
