ONLY BUSINESS THERMOMETERS =

Business conditions are due to a
mans attitude toward life. Bust
ness conditions can be changed for
the better only as mans attitude
toward life changes. Business runs
in cycles-first period of prosperity
and then a period OF depression. When
studying these business changes. 1t
was necessary to resort to certain
statistics. In endeavOr.ng To ascer-
tain what causes the statistics. it was
found: that a period OF depression ~
the result Of righteousness, disho1'
ostv. extravaganza and inefficiency
which develop in the latter half of d,
period Of prosperity, and that a Pc
riod of prosperity is the reaction
from the righteous, industry. integri-
ty and thrift which develop in tho
latter half Of a period of depression
The meaning ri hi Is plain. It i'
rot railroads. steamships or factories
which cause our prosperity; II l'
hank clcarings foreign trade or cou,.
nodity prices which give us good hu'
mess. All these Things aro like thu
thermometer that registers the tem
ltatme Of the roam. Prosperity is
lased on those fundamental qualtir'
of fsith. temperance. service, AM
thrift which are the products Il ro

SHERMAN JONES

As far as we have any Information
sherman JONES of this city has lived
fora longer period in this country
than any other white man. Mr.
JONES came to this country with his
parents in 1869. His father moved
from Kentucky and came by way OF
jefferson, Texas From jefferson they
came by wagons and settled near the
town of Atlee which is IN jefferson
county. Since that time Mr.. JONES
has made his home in this country.
That was before the railroads had
built into Texas. it was before the
reople had begun TO slaughter the
buffalo and it was before the In
dians had quit making raids in this
country. So thnly settled was the
country that when his father died
in 1887 his mother had to prepare
him for burial, and Mr. JONES who
/ was then only a small lad, had to
/ ride across the line In Texas to get
such help as they required to bury
his father.
Mr. JONES has store house OF
early day history and he knew per
sonally many of the bad men OF
Indian Territory.
The next man in age OF residence
IN this section Of the country is Uncle
Euck Gardenhire, who came here II
1878.
Mr. JONES has invested wisely anf
has large ranches and much business
property not only in this city hut in
other cities or the country.
1t is the opinion of Mr.. JONES that
Carter county has the best govern
ment now it has ever had since state
hood He says the commissioners 'r'
working hard they have inspired th'
people to work with them, they have
sought to equalize the taxes and they
are doing effective road work ans
are building a great county.
Mr. JONES is a close observer e.
business conditions. He says tina
during the last few years since th'
cople here began to buy automobile
that he believes Carter county has
spent six million dollars for cars
This sum of money has gone east L
the factories from this county alonH
We have a great producing county

have achieved so much

sEow a profit on your operations,
credit will be restored, money will

more plentiful.
What is true of labor is also true
Of rents, and OF city property and
farm lands There were false infla.
tions and these false values are
being destroyed. Such change had

now as any other time.

BUSINESS Adj STNENT
NECESSARY

Gompers advises union workers 10
fight wage reductions ana accept
compromises rather than TO submit
peaceably t. reductions. Labor may
make ever so hard fight to hold
wages at as nearly war time figures
as possible, but that fight will not
avail very much. The world has en-
tered a new era, we cannot 1--we III
the past, we have to accept the m
evitable whether we want to or not.
We are but losing time and adding
TO our own confusion when we in
quire about the return Of old times
with their high wages and high prices
and sore dissatisfaction and waste
full living. Those times are gone
We built up inflated values and those
inflated values are going. We eX'
alted wages and the decline is here
now.
Men in business and men drawing
salaries must look forward to condl
tions entirely new to them. Other
men have gone through similar times
when silver was demonetized in I3
fnd when fluctuations of the markets
in 50 swept the fortunes from the
cattlemen. These men of business
and men of wage earners must meet
the situation together. There are six

are willing to work for their food.
there may be more by next September
and Mr. Gompers over.estimates his
strength If he thinks labor can re'
sist such u tide and not be washed
back to lower pay levels.
Depressions are not freflies lasting
but a night but in "a period OF read
justment months will be- required.
After the depression has passed ana
the upward trend starts there will be
great money making era and the
man who meets these conditions
bravely and courageously and who
does not waste his entire energies In
worry and fear is the man who will
be- carried 10y the tide when IL starts
back toward profits and progress

1t was learned today, however, that
many counties which have deposited
funds In the Bank of North Dakota.
Wnlch they are unable to withdraw,
have been making tax" returns to the
state treasurer with checks on that
bank. BY this method there is no
actual increase in the amount Of
funds in the bank, and the amounts
which the Bank Of North Dakota will
receive this spring will be materially
lessened in this way.

Nor from the past record of the
present industrial commission. as
shown above, can there be any doubt
that the members are quite willing
to blow in a few million dollars more
Of the state funds on the state indus
trial program, SO called.
Ono Way of Prevention.
So it is plain that the only way in
which the state funds can be safe
guarded is by removing the present
members of the industrial commission
from Office and putting in their place
men who will see that funds of the
various departments and institutions
are used for the purposes they were
appropriated for.
Otherwise we may expect to see the
state bled white during the next 1s
months by the effort of the present
administration to support their
schemes by pouring a constant stream
of money intosthe Golfers Of the enter
:prises they have mismanaged.
This can be avoided only by

Furthermore. the records of the in

allowed to remain in power should
bear in mind that this power to trans

the industrial commission.
The oornmission has the power
to take. .'the funds which were ap-
propFiated BY the last session OF
the legislature to erect a new
recitation building at the univcr-
sity and use them to erect $4,000 4
houses for William Lcmkc and
other deserving leagucrs, or to
cover deficits incurred at the
Drake mill Through Incompetence
and misknanagement. y
The only limit that there is on thi.
power is the amount of funds or
which the commission members art
able to get their hands.
So it is plain that the industria
commission still has the power t.
plunge the state still deeper in tn,
