RURAL CREDIT AND THRIFT

The south and the west and the
northern agricultural states have
much to learn in the way of rural
thrift from the New England rural
communities. The constant cry is for
easiel credit for the farmer, but what
the farmer needs most is more thrift.
Some If the southern states are
cursed with crop lien laws which are
holding back the rural communities
by allowing a man to mortgage his
future work and hopes and keeps him
continually in debt instead of allow
ing him to lay something aside. It is
an astonishing fact that Massachu-
sets has five times more savings
bank deposits than twelve southern
states. In Massachusetts there are
100000 people and 2,25O,O0O of them
have savings bank deposits. In three
years the savings banks in connection
with the public schools showed 1,400,-
900 deposits. Every school in the ru-
raj communities ought to have a
course of thrift talks" whereby the
teacher could lay before the scholars
the necessity of saving a portion of
whatever money they might earn.
This money could be deposited in saw
ings banks and, later, when it has
grown, could be used to purchase
good, safe bonds paying three and
one-half to five per cent. interest. The
child mind, as we'll as the minds of
those who are older, should be i'm
%pregnated with the fact that it is not
what one earns that makes a compe-
tency for old age, but what n lays
aside.

been done.
Harlie Martin, who was shot twice
last Friday by Jack Norville is still
confined to his bed at the Deaconess

arm.
H. S. Leigland of Great Falls was

part of the week. The firm Of Leig-
land kleppe secured the contract for

National Bank building the new high
school and several smaller buildings.
Sunday evening the j. L. Truscott
store was broken into but the thieves
were evidently scared away without
getting anything. An entrance was
gained to the store through a window.
The advent of Oscar Schiller, who
sleeps in the store, probably frighten-
ed the vandals. Nothing was missing
from the stock of goods or cash.

 Wade on Staff

Atlanta. Ga. July 30.-The fact that he shot at Governor Harris of Georgia Ia times-and missed each time-may win for I. C. Wade of Cornelia, Ga, an appoint ment on the governors staff, provided the governor can persuade the state leg islature now In session to abolish the age limit of GO years. Governor Harris is Confederate veteran. Mir. Wade served in the northern army.
 The governor met MT. Wade when cam paigning about year ago. Talk turned to the fighting at Moorefield, Va, In the cos.
 Where were you on the morning of the second days battle, when you fellows were making 1t so hot for us?" asked the Confederate
 I was on outpost duty. on the extreme end of the upper right wing, and thought every minute would be my last" replied Mir Wade
 You don't mean 1t. Well, tell me, did you see man saddle roan horse and ride off at top speedo''
 Did I see him? Why I shot at tha { man l6 times and missed him every time''
 It's good thing you missed" said MT. Harris, ''or I wouldn't be here. I'm the man you shot at"

a prominent official of the country. these societies strike note between rreemasonry and trade unionism and form the only safeguard of the Iibibio women against the tyranny of their menfolk.
 One of the customs of these women Is to go in procession to certain pool in the garb of Lady Godiva. All men must keep indoors during this cere- mony. and any "Peeping Tom" who seeks to intrude on this one of the most sacred of the feminine mysteries, used to be liable to the death pen atty. Even today he is heavily fined, and would be hardly likely to live to see another such festival.
 The strangest institution of the Ib- ibio women however. is known as the fatting house. The first great event in the life of an Ibibio girl Is her en- trance into the fatting house. where she Is kept In seclusion for few months, allowed to eat as much as she likes, and is pampered on every side. Free born girls. of good family. go twice. and sometimes three times. into the fatting house before their mar riage. The second period varies ac- cording to the wealth of the family, from a few weeks to two years, and girls of good position who are regard cd as likely to repay the expenditure hy the mans dowry money are some

COPPER AN EXAMPLE 0F ACCESSIBILITY 0F GENUINE CORNER Amalgamated Is Gradually Dissolved Without Action
 by the Government ROGERS THOUGHT TT ENTIRELY FEASIBLE Students Now Convinced It Is, I'm possible to Create Monopoly of
 Mineral or Agricultural
 Products
By HOLLAND

New York. July 30.-(Special. )-In fifteer years the career of the Amalgamatet Copper company taught two lessons, ire trfct by those who are familiar with tn, beginning of this great organization ir 1899 and its recent termination. One ol these lessons teaches that 1t Is impossibl, to create a monopoly of production ant marketing the chief products of the soi or the United States, mineral or agricul tural. The other lesson which many have thoroughly learned is that attempted monopolies in the United States upon g great scale at least contain the seeds ot disaster and in due time will from eco homie causes be ended
 It was with a wild whirl of enthusla SIT that the books were opened in 1899 fol subscription to the Amalgamated Copper company proposition. Not often has Wal street witnessed such a scene. It almost suggested the reverse side of panic or TUT offer their subscription and they besiegec the offices of the bank to which the syn. dicate that had organized the company gave the privilege of receiving subscrip. tions. Although the subscriptions to the United States Steel corporation stock greatly exceeded those made for the Amalgamated Copper company stock, yet there were no such visible evidences oi excitement when these subscriptions were made as were plentiful on those few days when the subscriptions for the copper company's stock were received.
 Now this company Is ended and it passed out of existence without any visible eX- citement. It simply died. The books were closed and one of the greatest or ganizations the country has ever knowr was dissolved without any impulse fur nished by the department of justice a, Washington. The friends of the late Henry H. Rogers. whose mind conceived this organization, had some reason for presuming that within two or three years of his death MT. Rogers realized that In a country like the United States 1t Is as impossible to gain complete control of copper and is as impracticable to secure world control of the copper industry as

 The next night the wrong man and the right man happened to come to the club at the same time. Both went to the letter box, the right man reaching 1t first. The wrong man stepped back be- cause he didn't want to embarrass the right one. But not he; he was there with the nerve. The right man read the epstle over very carefully twice. Then he tore 1t Into bits, which he tossed carelessly into the nearest cuspidor, with depre- eating smile.
