Clear Lake, Jan. 21.--While several
suits have been filed against the Colby
Motor Company, Of Mason City, which
has been supplanted by the Standard
Motor Company, from present indica-
tons number more will be filed, prin-
cipally by bankers who hold accommo
dation notes against the concern. Pos
sibly over 100000 will be involved In
the litigation which may follow.
On Dec. last John Walch was APP
pointed temporary guardian OF his
mother, Mrs. Mari Walch. This was on
d petition to the court filed by John
Walch setting forth that Mari Walch
was of unsound mind. was then and
had been for number of years past.
that she was unable to manage her
affairs, was spendthrift, was squan-
dering her property, had assumed &C
cOmmodation notes in the sum Of
100000 and made other investments
consisting of the purchase OF $4,000
corporation stock and paid cash there
for. The petition further states that
she was Of Austrian birth, was "a years
of age, and was unacquainted with
business affairs. After being advised
Of these contemplated proceedings she
consented to the appointment Of a
guardian. The bonds of the temporary
guardian were fixed at $4,000.
Backed Colby Company.
Mari Walch was the wife of Sebas-
tan Walch. who died some years ago.
leaving a fortune to his wife variously
estimated between 100000 and $780,
900. When money was needed in the
operation of the Colby plant she was
visited and it Is stated gave these
accommodation notes. which were
cashed by bankers and others thruout
the north half Of the state. This paper
is scattered. possibly fifty different
people being interested. Should any
Of these people attempt to force col
lection 1t will doubtless be resisted by
the attorneys interested in the case.
An effort will be made to establish
that Mrs. MARI walch was not sound
in mind when she made the papers. AL
ready one case has been brought
against q Mason City business man
asking for the payment Of a note he
signed for $4,000. II this litigation ever
gets in court, and it looks as II 1t
would, it will be one of the most ex-
tensive cases ever tried out In the
state.

IOWA INDUSTRIAL OASIS.

Des ;Moines, Jan. 21.-"Iowa Is the
one oasis in the industrial desert" said
James G. Berryhill. ST., who recently
returned from the west. Il have been
in every nook and corner OF the United
States, The contrast between the optl-
mism in this state and the pessimism
of the country In general Is marked.
While the corn crop here was not up to
the average last season the increase
in price makes up for the decrease
in production.
"The general financial depression has
brought things to standstill on the
Pacific coast. That Is developing
country and naturally when money
stopped flowing in development enter
prises were held up.
"Great numbers Of unemployed men
have been drawn there for work ana
because Of the unusually mild winter
climate, met a man on street car
in San Francisco with a sleeping bag

RES It with him wherever he goes.
When night comes he sleeps wherever
he chances to be.
"Business men in California are ex-
Meeting great reductions in freight
rates on account of the canal. They
will profit especially on the trans
portation of heavy goods which do not
require rapid delivery. They also an
ticipate considerable reductions IN the
prices of clothing which will be
brought about by the new tariff sched-
ule."
Mr.. Berryhill believes the temporary
financial depression is a natural Sc
ouence to the wave Of prosperity whtch
has swept over the country. He pre-
diets that as soon as things readJust
themselves business will go ahead the
same as usual. The new tariff ana
financial legislation coming at this
time somewhat aggravate cond1tions'
but are only partially responsible Tor
