WHY They Dislike Unions.

Tampa, Fla. Nov. lS.--The boardof
public works showed why employers
dislike trade unions when they ordered
a job of painting awarded to the low
est bidder
Union contractors bid on the basis
of 81 an hour. and non-union contract
ors on the basis of so cents an hour.
The latter received the contract.

The raid on farm prices is an i'll

gamblers and politicians, but 1t is
doing some good in that 1t is lining
up thousands of. town people hitherto

in New York hotels putting candy on their menus
says New York Times.
Candy has become such an important consdera-
tion that all the larger hotels now have their own
candy shops as part of their establishments and the
deicacy is no longer crowded in on the newstands.
People eat candy three and four times day. Even
fruit has failed to satisfy Guests order candy sent
to their rooms now in the same way they formerly
ordered bottle of wine or fruit
''rhe candy sales have more than quadruped in
the last few months, said Copeland Townsend of the
Majestic Hotel Nearly everybody asks for candy
part of their luncheon and dinner ORDERS and
many have candy served for breakfast"
And yet under our taxation laws candy is class
ed as luxury and assessed with per cent excise
tax over and above all other taxes

INSPIRES CONFIDENCE

Radical changes in the governments "trust bust
ing" policy, to conform to the supreme courts de-
cison in the United States Steel will undoubted
y have to be made.
The big point established in the U. S. Steel case
is that mere size of business does not constitute
"trust" and that large organization under proper
management may be the most advantageous to the
public. Such decision sets aside ignorance and
political preudices and offers great encouragement
to expansion of industry in the U. S.
On top of this congress has egazed railroad
consultations to strengthen credit and give better
service This was E. H. Harrimans plan for the rail
roads in order to build them up and extend them with
billions of capital but his ideas ahead of the
general understanding of the country at that time.
We have lived and learned however, and are now
profiting by dear experience. The confidence which
these decisions will inspire in the business world are
of untold value to country at this time.

WORLDS LONGEST POWER LINE

The Southern Sierras Power Company of River
side, California has for time past been trans
mtting high tension electric current for distance
OF 517 miles and doing it successfully
This line from the company's plant in Cali
fOrnla to Yuma Arizona. The current is ordinarily
brought 239 miles from Yuma to San Berdardino at
37,oo0 volts and stepped down to $4,000 volts and
sent the remainder Of the distance The fexibil-
lty OF the system however such that when trans
lo.n!er recently burnt out in San Berdardino the
current sent the full SIT miles at $4,000 volts
during. the time for repairs. This supply shows the
unlimited power resources that can be developed here
in the west.
The Montana Power Company has demonstrated
that the heaviest freight and passenger trains the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul can be handled sue
cessfuly with electricity. The Southern Sierra
Power Company has demonstrated thati distance is
no barrier to the transmission Of power.

INCREASED PRODUCTION SEEMS ASSURED

AS a result of passage of oil land leasing bill it
is expected that immediate activities will take place
in oil fields in both California and Wyoming In the
main this activity will take the form of leasing in
proved territory.
In Wyoming the lands are subject to lease in
640-acre holdings through competitive bidding
Another promising feature looking to increased
production is found in the relief provisions of the
new law. Under these provisions those who initial
ed claims under the old placer laws and continued
operations, will be given rights all others to
lease of all claims where they have wells, up to 5000
acres This will be of great benefit to California.
In the general areas where the possibilities are
problematical there is also promise of considerable
immediate activity. Many people are preparing to
take out prospecting permits in Utah, Colorado
Montana ard New Mexico
The oil industry should now be given clear
track and development encouraged in order to meet
the growing world demand and check increasing
prices due to shortage of supply

health, 80 that when about week be-
fore the end came, she was taken with
the influenza, she was not able in her
weakened condition to resist this addi-
tional force and declined rapidly till
released from her sufferings. Mrs.
Boswell was highly esteemed by those
who made her acquaintance for her
quiet unassuming manner, and will be
greatly missed by a large circle Of
friends Of many years.

the funeral services were held in the
Presbyterian church of New Point, and
