PROSPERITY VS.. STAGNATION.

Everybody is talking houses. Everybody says
fine and dandy. Everybody declares that Great
Falls ought to have two hundred new houses this
year and everybody knows it would make a lot
of business for the dealers and that would be
fine Everybody catches the idea that it would
create lot of labor for carpenters and add to
prosperity.
Over against this you can find easily one hun
dred men who have got the money to build
home if they can be persuaded that they can
make the investment now and not suffer too
much thru the drop in materials hereafter.
What then is needed?
The answer is easy. Simply a getting togeth-
er. The lumbermen should make fair profit.
They have surely travelled rocky road thru the
war But the time has come for them to sharpen
their pencils and just as the steelmen have done
with the government arrive at the equitable
prices. We think about every prospective buyer
is willing to have the lumber dealer make fair
profit.
Now, then, the dealer in plumbing supplies
must follow the example Of these same steel
men, The thing needed in reconstruction is vol
ume of business right off the bat The dealer,
if there be any, who is saying will be content
with small sales and long profits hasn't got the
idea He is disciple of stagnation instead of
reconstruction.
The same line of talk applies to the hardware
lines, the concrete and everything else that goes
into house.
This is exactly the doctrine that the new in
dustrial board at Washington talked to the steel
men-namely: don't make your prices too high;
don't make them too low; make them fair-then
let's begin reconstruction.
The contractors ought to be interested in this
propaganda. A committee of contractors could
find out whether material prices are too high in
Great Falls or not. We are not asserting that
prices are too high in any line. We are simply
indicating what ought to be done if there are
dealers in any line who are choosing the big
profit-small-volume road as was found to be the
case with some steel manufacturers.
It will bear repeating-the houses should be
built Let's not sit around all summer while the
sky is blue and the grass is green. 1t will be Win
ter again after bit.

THE RAILROAD PROBLEM.

The director general of the railroads of the
United States recently suggested plan to crack
the particularly refractory nut Of railroad owner
ship and operations. Reduced to simple terms
it consists in the government guarantee OF
small interest on the money invested In rail-
roads by the private owners, plus share IN any
revenue earned by the road above the cost OF
operation, including the government guaranteed
dividend This, he points out would insure
minimum profit on the money invested by all
railroads, while encouraging them to make more
profits by efficient management, because they
would share in such additional profits. 1t would
also square itself with the idea put forward by
some of the railroad employees of sharing in the
profits Of the road The idea of the latter is not,
however, to substitute such speculative profits
for any portion of their present pay, but to add
such profits, if there be any, to their present
rate of compensation. In other words, they
would be willing to share in profits, but not in
losses arising from the operation of the rail-
roads.
It is not our purpose to enter into any dis
cussion of the merits of this suggestion at this
time. But it is chiefly interesting to US as indi-
eating purpose to turn back the railroads to
private ownership soon. In fact, all signs point
TO SuCn dcLlOU. 1Hc POpOoII1OH VI tIAC AdGc III
rector general, Mr.. McAdoo that congress ex-
tend the time during which the government may
operate the railroads for five years in order to
give the people chance to decide between the
merits of private operation and public operation
fell on unwilling ears far as the last congress
was concerned. That congress had an admins
tration majority in both branches. If Mr.. Nc
Adoo's proposal with the administration to back
him could not be put thru the last congress still
less can it be put thru the next congress with
republican and anti-administration majority in
both branches. The republican party seems to
be pretty strongly committed against govern
ment operation Of railroads. Therefore as a
practical proposition we may pretty safely as
sumo that government ownership is not to be
thought Of at the present time and government
operation is also nearing its end.
We are also pretty well satisfied that the re-
turn Of the railroads to their private owners and
their operation by these private owners as pro-
posed by the republicans is the popular thing just
now The railroad employees as rule do not ia
vor it because they have found it much easier to
get wage increases from Uncle Sam than they
did from the private owners. The socialists and
radicals do not favor it because it runs counter

 When you play to me see and hear and feel many things that l can not easily put into words. I feel the mighty sweep and surge and pulse ot life. Oh, you are masters of a won drous art, subtle and suerfine. When you play to me. immediately a miracle is wrought, sight is given to the blind and deaf ears hear sweet, strange sounds.
 Each note is a picture. a fragrance, the flash of wing, lovely girl with pearls in her hair, a group of exquisite children dancing and swinging gar lands of flowers, a bright mingling of colors and twinkling feet. There are notes that laugh and kiss and sigh and melt together. And notes that weep and rage and fly apart like shattered crystals.
 But mostly the violins sing of lovely things-woods and streams and sum kissed hills. the faint sounds of tiny creatures Hitting about in the grass and under the petals of the flowers the noisefess stirring of shadows in my garden. and the soft breathings of the shy things that light on my hand for an instant, or touch my hair with theii wings.
