SOUND COUNSEL,

Former Governor Hanna uttered words of wis
dom at the meeting Of the implement dealers at
Fargo on Thursday. y business man talking to
business men, he discussed the business situation.
which is in every mind. Like the practical man that
he is, he talked plain common sense instead of dis
charging a lot of fireworks, aimed at nothing and
hitting nowhere.
Mr.. Hanna's remedy for the unfavorable bust
ness conditions of the day are economy and work.
The formula is capable of expansion by the addition
of little details here and there, some of them quite
important.But those two elements, economy and
work, are the basis of all the medicine which will
have any value in curing Our present ills.
Legislative effort in many directions can be
productive of good. We should put a stop to the
issuance of tax-exempt securities. We should pro-
vide means for the quick and convenient extension
OF credit at rates of interest which are not prohibit
tive, to- tide men who are really solvent over fight
places. We should and must do many things which
will correct specific evils and which will tend to
facilitate the Legitimate operation of every industry.
But when we have done all this the country will be
at a standstill unless we have been conserving and
creating-unless we have been applying those old
fashioned, simple. but effective home remedies,
economy and work. =
