BUSINESS OUTLOOK OF THE
COUNTRY IS BRIGHT

During the past few years the peo-
pie of this country have become ac-
customed to living on a higher stand
ard than heretofore, and they are not
going to be satisfied to live in any
other way in the future. The money
they spend must necessarily mean a
large purchasing power, and that pur-
chasing. power is bound to keep bust
ness going at a good volume.
We believe the average citizen of
Julesburg and community will agree
that this is true. Thrift and saving
is a fine thing, but spending money
makes prosperity. For instance, peo-
pie have become accustomed to buying
autos, and this buying makes Jobs
for an army Of people. In turn, the
men who make the autos spend the
money they receive, thus keeping the
people who make and raise the things
they have to have also employed.
The more we spend for legitimate
purposes the more jobs there are and
the more prosperity to be divided
among all of US. Common sense, of
course, has long ago shown that when
man makes more and spends more,
he also saves more We can't have
luxuries and necessities unless we Gre
ate them-so it's plain that we have
to produce if we want more. Human
ity can't consume more than it pro-
duces, and the only time that men
could sit down and depend on the
ravens to feed them passed thousands
of years ago. We've got to produce
and we've got to spend to have pros
perity. And we can do both and still
save little at the same time.

(By Special Correspondent

JUNEAU, May 2.-With the Alaska College items stricken and the fish commission item boosted to $S6,5o0, the general appropriations measure passed the House yesterday afternoon. Although the college item was taken from the list that institution was pro- tected by a special college arrroptla- tion measure which called for sa".n3). Both the college and fish measures have been bones of conte li)n be- tween the two legislativ" bodies si'ce Monday morning and 1t was no- until near the noon hour yesterday that a compromise was effected. The only other material change in the general appropriatio tions was the provision cov- ering schools outside of incorporated towns. This amount was increased $2O,OOO, passing in the measure al s22O,OOO.
 The Senate passed the Grant reso- lution and the fisheries bill which carries provisions aimed at traps To- cated in small bays and estuaries and provides for the crea tion of an Alaska fish commission control and regulation of fisheries. This measure will be sent to congress for enactment.
 The Senate also passed House Bill No. 36, revising the general business laws of the territory; and House Bill No. 5S, appropriating $S,O0O for the purchase of the Tolovana tram road, connecting the head of navigation on the .Tolovana river with the town Of Livingood, the mining center of that district.
 With but two days remaining for legislative business there yet remain 36 measures to be acted upon, which includes the Ayers workmen's com pensation act, which is scheduled to follow the Houses disposition of the taxation bill. Ten House and twenty Senate bills are yet to be acted upon by the lower body, while the Senate has only four bills unacted. Owing to these conditions it will require a continuous session of both houses if all measures are to be considered be- fore adjournment.
 The appropriations measure, passed yesterday, carried total of $1,452,- 36O. included in which were the fol-

lowing items:
 Maintenance of schools, s674,0O0. Roads and trails, $24O,OOO
 Pioneers Home at Sitka, S9S,45O
 Fish Commission, sS6,5OO.
 Pensions, s60,OO0. Some slashing is predicted when these allocations reach the Senate
 The House passed the taxation bill which includes the following: On net incomes between s5OO0 to 1,OO0,OOO, one per cent of the profits. Above a million dollars, one and a half per cent.
 The new fish taxation schedule is as follows: With a base rate Of 12 cents on reds, kings and sockeyes, on packs under 10000 cases. Three cents a case additional will be levied on all increases up to 25,OOO cases.
 Other increases will be as follows 25,OOO to 10000 cases, 8 cents.
 10000 to 5O,000 caes, 13 cents.
 
 Above 6O,00O cases, g cents.
 The above schedule covers medium reds, echoes and pinks.
 On a base pack of 25,00O cases a surtax of AZ cents per case will be collected with the following surtaX on increases:
 25,OOO to 10000 cases, ? cents.
 10000 to 5O,OOO cases, cents.
 5O,OOO cases to 60,0OO cases, 6 cts.
 All over 6O,000 cases, S1a cents.
 The rate on chums is unchanged from the previous listing, which was three cents. It is estimated that schedule is about 135 per cent higher than last year.
 The Senate adopted the substitute for the Price fish bill creating two fisheries districts in Southeastern Alaska. The first district lies between the 57th and 6Oth parallels, north lat itude. The closed season is desig- mated between August 10 and Sep 1, and will be annually. The second district lies south of the 57th parallel, wit hthe closed season covering be- tween August 20 to September g.. Both of these districts lie east of the 139th meridian and affetcs territory outside of the First division.
 The legislature will close Saturday, May 5th.

PARIS, May 2.-The new German proposals for separations settlement are so far from being acceptable to France that a flat rejection of them is regarded as certain by persons close to Poincaire. This rejection, It is stated, will probably be followed by an extension of occupation on the right bank of the Rhine.
 The offer proposes that the sum to- tai of Germany's obligations under the Versailles treaty be fixed at thirty billion gold marks. Twenty billion Of the total is to be raised before July |, 1927. by bond issue at normal
 of interest on the international mon- ey market; five billions would be rais- ed before July l, 1929, in the same manner, and the remainder before July l, 1881.
