On the Road to Prosperity.

II Is good to see that continued improvement
in agricultural industrial and trade conditions are
reported BY the Federal Reserve bank Of this dis
trict. The crop outlook is said to be excellent,
employment has increased, building operations
sre approaching the boom stage and wholesale
and retail trade has made further advances
Steady liquidation and the improvement in
agricultural prices are credited Is the chief fac
tors in this recovery. 1T is quite evident" the
bank review adds. that adherence to rigid
economy programs, buying little and borrowing
little, has also helped"
Some conception Of the prevalence Of thrift is
found in the report that the number Of people in
the Tenth district having savings accounts has
risen more than $4,000 over year ago Saving
deposits in e reporting institutions amounted to
$7s,41l,736 on April |, Is compared with $74.-
3z4,6o6 year before.
The people Of this middle west live by work
and saving. These are the qualities that have
brought about the easing Of the financial situa-
ton. The remedy for hard times is infallible-
ii will achieve results Just as we'll in Europe as
in America.

Buying Power Is Here.

A financial writer for an eastern paper re-
marks on the confidence that is displayed On
every hand in the middle west He mentions the
purchases Of motor cars as indications that the
people have money and are willing to spend it
when they are convinced that they are getting
their moneys worth. Nor is it only essentials
that find market.
short time ago Mary Garden took her
operate company to Wichita The guarantors
put up $4,000 for two performances and made
profit. At about the same time 800 men were
initiated into lodge at cost Of $500 each.
Numerous examples Of the spending ability Of
the middle west come to mind. The market for
bonds and stocks Of established character has
been good for several months
People out here are not investing in blue sky,
nor is there any great amount Of reckless ex-
travagance. But when they want something, they
50 buy it. And if there is profit for the farm
ers in the next harvest, the uncertainty that has
cursed business for the past two years ought to
be permanently dispellcd.

Rights Of the Law Abiding

Vetoing bill ito permit justices Of the su-
perior court to suspend the execution Of sem
fences in criminal cases, Governor Cox pertinent
" calls attention to the right Of that great ma
jority of the people who are law abiding to ex-
pect that they will be protected, as far as posi-
bic, against the criminal element Of society. In
recent years, there has been, perhaps, overmuch
attention to the offender in comparison with the
attention given the public that supplies the vic
tins for him and his kind. There has arisen as
result condition that clearly calls for change
Of attitude As the governor says, the protection
Of the public demands a more wholesome respect
for stern justice, promptly administered, and not
too much deleted by wasted sympathy
The measure which the governor has vetoed
in view of the existing latitude given the judges
with reference to probation and the deferring Of
sentences, might not have resulted in greater
leniency, but its incorporation in the laws of the
commonwealth would have been hailed in the
under world as another indication Of the present
day tendency to make the course of the wrong
doer primrose path. It is better to advertise
the fact as is done in this veto message, that the
adequate protectioltl of decent citizens is just
now upperinost in the minds Of the authorities
Figures for the year ended September 80
1921, show that of each thousand persons con-
victed in the criminal courts of the comrnon-
wealth only ninety-three we're placed in restraint
No further argument is necessary as to the WIS
dom of promptly killing attempts to make escape
from Jail still easier.-Boston Transcript.

When Grandpa Was a Dude.

"There is 80 much talk against the fapper
these days, but history records that men were
the Aappers fifty years ago" remarks the Gill
lette (NNyo) News. This assault on the dignity
and good fame OF the generation Of grandfathers
is bolstered up by certain evidence: "They
creased their hair, wore corsets and otherwise
made themselves look fine Twenty years ago
they wore stiff bosomed Shirts wore silk belts
six inches wide, parted their long hair in the
middle, aud wore neckties that pufied out in
front like the breast Of pouter pigeon.
Reading further on in sartorial history it will
be found that at one period the shoulders OF
mems coats were heavily padded to make the
veriest weakling appear an athlete. It may even
be suspected that the sterner sex gave up wear
inr breeches because so many did not possess
the proper shaped leg.
Airing Of the facts brought up by this
Wyoming editor has the benefit Of inducing a
better spirit Of humility. 1t serves to remind
also that the fashion of one age almost invaria.

His first great effort will be TO convince the
soviet representatives that they are engaged in
serious business, and that they can not play
with the fate OF Europe and civilization as they
played with the great state of Russia. France
realizes that its national debt is in round num-
bers $l7,O00,O000O0 in gold, and that s9,OOOOOO,-
GOO OF this due and owing from Germany and
Russia Consequently, France wants assurance
that this will be paid. Russia's compact with
Germany is not material; what is required OF the
soviet government is guaranty that it will pay
Russia's external debts, and that property Of
aliens seized and nationalized will be compensated
for. Germany, too, must be held to rigid ac-
countability. The French are willing to 90 it
