HURLEY, 4 WORD or ,NrAny

Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands
sent the men to clean up Hurley,
Wisconsin in the matter Of illegal
booze. They cleaned up. Perhaps
Judge Lands will be able to keep it
cleaned up.
Hurley is q synonym for infamy. 1t
Is one Of the towns with an inheri-
tance. It was Hurley where the
stockades OF generation ago made
themselves both notorious and in
famous. Women were lured 10 that
frontier of vice and degradation, Inn
prisonera in stockades and guarded
by arra'sd brutes to be sold piecemeal
to other brutes from the lumber
wods. When death finally came to
their relief they were buried and for
gotten ia some out of the way corner.
Finally reporters, at the risk Of
life. managed to get the story to the
outsids' world. The stockades were
abolished. Yet vice reigned IN Hurley
as It ha', reigned since.
Hurley and the clean UP there is
simply another evidence that a brave
and honest administration Of the law

tirely because decency, the majority,

Mr. roRaAEs CLEAR RESUME.

The plainest, clearest and most
understandable explanation Of the
present period of business depression.
falling prices and low collections.
that has yet appeared, is given by
James B. Forgan, chairman Of the
board OF directors OF the First Ma
tional Bank Of Chicago. and is pub
lished on this page OF the T.-R. to-
day. e9
After examining It readers OF the
T.-R. will recall that each and every
statement made therein has from
time to time been published editorial
ly. as the opinion or prediction OF this
newspaper. The things that Mr.. For
gan says have happened during this
last year are the things that the
T.-R. said many months ago would
happen and they did.
"On the whole says Mr. Forgan,
ut was to be expected, but in pros
porous times business men rarely re-
gard the warnings of those who point
out the weakness Of the existing
situation, but act as if there never
couldA be q change for the worse"
That seems to be the temper Of a
great many business men who have
been reading warnings in the T.-R..
and then damned the newspaper for
conducting q propaganda for low
er prices.
One young merchont Of this city,
however, Is conspicuous exception.
He manages business with
branches In other cities. He read the
T.-R.'s editorials last summer. when
other merchants were kicking, and he
decided to hedge. He reduced his
stocks OF merchandise, and when a
price decline Of rs per cent struck his
line like q bolt OF lighting out OF q
clear sky, he had 100000 less goods
on hand in all Of his branches than
he would have had had he not read
the r.-R. with 100000 less rnerchar-
disc on which to mark down prices
25 per cent, he has no complaint as
to the editorial policy Of this news
paper and he stands up boldly in the
Marshalltown Club telling his friends
what happened to him.

bones and out of the active minds OF
those who have gone on leaving, not
legacy as we are selfishly prone to
consider, but debt. Every advance
Of last year and of all the. years is a
mortgage on 1921.
AT the beginning OF this new year
the clashing demands of classes and
class selfishness fill the air. That fer
ment Is part OF the process OF pro-
gress. They will. in time, balance
each other as the entrifugal and CEN
tripetai forces keep the universe in
place and hold the worlds In their
orbits. It is hard for us to see beyond
our own particular horizons; but be-
yond the blue sky line the round
world lies with its desires and needs
and ambitions infinitely spread the
same people with the same hopes an,
selfishness and generosity that mark
our little circle OF vision. The limits
OF a tc:'xnship and the boundaries OF
a county are mere imaginary lines
where once they represented a sort
Of Capitalization OF their own. They
can not live to themselves. A state
can not live to itself. A nation, in this
later day when invention has crowded
hemispheres up against each other
and abolished seas and mountains.
can not live to itself.
The world has grown, little by little
1t has grown on the foundations Of
the beginning. Every day that the
world has lived is in the New Year
OF 1921. All the progress in science
and art, all the mighty progress that
mark the day is debt. The mighty
liner traces back to the skin clad
fisherman in his dugout. the rifle to
the club which the cave man de-
Tended his home and his property and
even the laws that permit society to
live were born about the blaze OF a
cave mans fire. from the tips Of its
patriarch.
So tomorrow isn't the beginning
but renewal. There Is q long, heavy
outstanding debt against 1921.
There is but one beginning. an the
beginning God created the world All
the rest is o journey. a task. a priyi.

THE DEBT AGAINST 1onsRRow.

New Years day isn't essentially
differei'lt from the other s65 days.
January l Is decimal point. 1t is
the day when we take a full breath
and statrt again .on our annual pill
grimalEs Of IL calendar months. We
put the past year behind us, that is
we Think we do, and begin all over.
That - we think we are beginning all
over. 7sIs
A NeY Year sermon or New Year
editorial furnishes little that is new,
There - nothing new to say Of the
fundamentals Of life. The same es-
sentia1 needs are ours that were the
needs Of Adam and of Eve on that
first New Year Of q beginning Of q
new world. The same old Ten Com
mandnrsnts are In existence. i. They
have not been repealed or changed.
They are still law. The Sermon on
the Mount ID still the ideal code Of
ethics. We have managed to evade
those laws, bootlegsed in morals and
ethics, as It. were, but the Adam in
his rlakedness, the cave dweller in his
furs and us, in our coats and trousers
in ou,. automobiles or sitting above
modern heating plants are brethren
under our skins like tho colonel's
lady and Biddy O'Grady. And this
might be extended to cover Eve In
her fs leaf and Peryle and Mae in
georgette waists and short skirts.
They're sisters too.
New Years isn't new game. It Is
only another deal in the regular
game that we must all sit in. Wheth-
er or not we wish we must draw
cards. And play them. Don't forget
that, We must play them. And we are
