Economy and SAVING.

thousands Of people whU make no ef-
fort to save a, dollar when times are
highly prosperous will develop and
practice economy when work ana op-
portunlty are less plentiful The best
way. Of course. In to try and save at
least little all the time. putting by \
larger amount when earnings are at
their height. As nation we are not
taught that economy. which makes
France the banker Of the world and
whose accumulutiOns come not from
vast exports Of natural resources. but
from the combined small savings. con.
sistently continued year after year. By
the French people as a whole.
The French save partly because 1t
has become hereditary and chiefly be-
cause the children are brought up that
way and are taught the dignity Of ac-
emulation. We. on the contrary. In
a spirit of false pride. are inclined to
scorn the necessity Of saving. as
though it were something Of which to
be ashamed. II our present expe-
riences shall teach US thrift 1t will

Niskern and R. D. DuVall rented
the Block House Smith farm together,
Duvall to take over its management.
Some time early this Spr 'ng DuvalI

furnish him a team, harness and wag-

The Port Commission.

The decision Of the Port Commits.
sion yesterday, after public hear.
Ing. to postpone building q public
dock until such time a. the necess ty
for such expenditure win appear and
the dock will pay for maintenance
and interest on the investment, ap.
peals to the good business judgment
Of the district. and will have the Of.
feet 81 establishing confidence in the
commission.
In creating the district, the greatest
opposition that developed arose from
the fear Of reckless expenditure Of
money, such as usually obtains in
public bodies intrusted with funds for
improvements. Whenever funds &C
cumulate 1t is quite the common Gus.
tom to demand their expenditure. US
ually for some project that will ap-
peal to some, interested or otherwise,
as necessary. Chehalis county and
the various cities have experienced
this to their serious cost in years
gone by, SO that the Port Of Grays
Harbor is to be congratulated upon
having a commission with the cour.
age to say no.
The time is not far distant when
the necessity for such improvement
will arrive, and wise business judy
ment advises the boarding of such
funds as are derived from light taxa
ton until then. The insinuation that
Commissioner Patterson was opposed
to this particular dock through a de-
sire to further his banking interests
was a gratuitous insult to public
spirited citizen whose long career on
Grays Harbor gives 1t direct contra
diction.
