 Small industries of Birmingham have served to keep things almost at normal during a most trying period.'.
 The gentlemen quoted in this arti- cle belong to the conservative class. They think before they speak They weigh all thee balances of trade against them, and admit good pros- pect only when they are convinced that it is good The least optimistic of them declares the underlying feel Ah6 m dhi iiHCS OL UuGlHeSS IS D6lsST and that things are picking up.'
 One large wholesaler calls atten- tion to the Increase in local jobbing trade, owing to the high freight rates and price fluctuations. These com1i- tions have caused the retailer to liuy close at home, so that he can get what he wants when he wants it; to make the local jobber, manufacturers and wholesalers his warehouseman.
 Chicago Buys Birmingham Goods One Birmingham manufactures sold nice bill of goods to a Chicago re- taller last week. after samples and prices had been submitted from mak- CTS of the same class of goods the country over.
 Concensus of opinion among the wholesalers seems to be that Bir- mingham's opportunities for going out after more .trade territory and annexing it were never better
 One very successful wholesaler does not believe that luck cuts any figure in business He believes in club on the part of Birmingham wholesalers
 Throughout the written article runs spirit of fair play. Birming- ham wholesalers and manufacturers have aimed at production and distri- button of the goods that will stand the test. and they point with pride to the fact that they hold the trade ter ritory once won.

 None of the wholesalers see a boom, none claims one to be in sig 1t, but they agree that the corner has been turned, and that in several in stances, especially in dry goods, the upturn during the past two weeks has been marked one. 4u

Suppose a banker would agree to place $2,000 to the credit of a mans family, issued a pass book to the family and agreed to let them check out the full amount if the man died at any time during the next twenty years, provided he would deposit in the bank $100 every year; with the further guaran- tee that should the man live to the expiration of the period, the banker would allow HIM to check out the money, and, in addition thereto, al low him the interest earned on this class of deposits. Wouldn't that be a pretty good proposition? It would, but no banker could safely make the offer-yet, that is in effect the offer the New York Life Insurance Company makes. See R. s.

CHANGES ARE ANNOUNCED
 IN RIVER RATES FOR 1921

The White Pass rate sheet for the coming season has several import ant changes, as compared to 1920. The main changes are:
 Via St. Michael-The carload special commodity rate expires July 31, instead of August 10. From July 31 to August 10 the regular tariff will rule. On August II there will an advance of $1O per ton, instead of $5, on all classes and special com modity does not apply. The base rate has not been announced, but will be some time later.
 Via Skagway-Carload commodity rates expire August 5, instead of August 15, and all class rates ad- vance on August 10, instead of August 20. There is an advance on all rates of from $2 to $5 per ton over last years rates.
 General Manager Wheeler reiter- ates his statement made last fall that boats will this season be tied up early. Unnecessarily late ship ments certainly will be stuck en- route.
 White Pass boats will not run on the Iditarod river this season, but arrangements have been made to connect with Ira Woods launches at Holy Cross, instead of at Dikeman, as heretofore.

SMALL VOTE IS CAST FOR

 Of the sixty votes cast, M. j.. Cooney received 59, Fred Major and Frank Tuefel, 57 each, and 37 of the ballots had the name of Carl Schmidt written in, as the fourth candidate, thereby practically fore ing MT. Schmidt to remain on the board.
 The following, whose names were written in, received one vote each Mrs. J. II. Scott, Mrs. Charles Stan- ford, J. H. Scott, William Smyth, J. N. Neilsen, Alex Fowler. Walter 1 Gould.
 The board, when reorganized, will be made up as follows, J. H. Scott being the only hold-over member; Fred Major and Carl Schmidt, re- elected; J. H. Scott, hold-over mem. Der; M. J. Cooney and Frank Tuefel, new members.
