Dark Horses Now
Appear For Dem.
Nominating Row

WASHINGTON, Mar. 2l.- Two
dark horses from the same stable
have been trotted out for the inspcc-
tion of Democratic trainers, as pos
sible winners in the presidential
derby, within the past week. They
are Huston Thompson, chairman of
the Federal Trade Commission, and
Governor William L. Sweet, both of
Colorado.
Colonel Edward NJ. House of New
York and Texas, former confident
of President Wilson, is credited with
having discovered presidential posi-
bilities in Sweet. Thompson is led
forward by friends who have watch
ed his course as head of the federal
trade commission and who see in
him Il candidate who has resisted
tremendous pressure from big bust.
ness and thereby especially qualities
for the sort of campaign that will
be waged this fall.
Thompson, long, lean, good. look.
ing chap of 48, retains the fighting
football spirit of his old Princeton
days. Possibly no one mentioned
as Il candidate would have stood 4
better chance of endorsement by
Woodrow Wilson, had the former
president lived.
Sweet is presented as Il man who
can consolidate the farm and labor
vote and also pull in the boys with
large incomes. He himself is rated
in the millionaire class. A keen bus.
mess man, an active church work.
er, a relentless dry, magnetic mix
or and with no corporation conncc-
tions that would be embarrassing or
disastrous, his friends say he could
unite all the "bettcr elements' be-
hind his candidacy.

of business conditions in these states
remain at level considerably un-
der the same period of 1928.
Montana, the government re-
ports, is experiencing some seasonal
unemployment. Confidence is ex
pressed III the trend in metal min
ing and slight improvement is
noted in logging and numbering in
the Missoula district. The general
tenor of the reports is significant
of rather quiet business.
Z" IN Idaho numbering is reported
on a cultailed basis in the northern
section of the state. Though season
al slackening appeared, employ
ment in the railway shops has been
about normal for this time of year.
Some resumption of metal mining,
other than silver, in northern part
of state, afforded considerable re-
lief for Unemployment. Though
most industrial concerns and activi-
ties not affected by weather are
doing fairly well, conditions cannot
be interpreted as showing a high
rate of activity
Commerce Moving West
Railway shop employment in
Wyoming is reported as distinctly
curtailed with expectation of ap-
preaching improvement. An exten-
sive program of highway construc-
tion is also counted upon to relieve
unemployment. Expansion is anti
cipated III oil field and refinery
operations, building and construc
ton. There is probability of i'm
provcment i'll these lines; but it is
still hard. to find, as yet, any pro
mise of strong upward movement.
"For the near future, then, the
best business opportunities in this
general region will undoubtedly be
found toward the west.
"All of these states should bene-
fit from the great change which is
| coming in world commerce which
change will transfer the center of
| trade from the Atlantic to the Pa
| cific Ocean. Few people realize the
great significance of this transfor-
nation. It will be truly revolu-
tionarv in character. New York
! City, now the financial center of
the western world, must give up
its. supremacy as has each of the
great cities of Europe i'll its turn.
| The cities of the Pacific Coast are
to become the great cities of Amer
| lea. California, Washington and
| Oregon are to become the richest
and busiest of our 48 states. These
| Pacific Coast centers are destined
| to be the clearing houses between
| the wealth of America and the ateem-
| ing millions of China, India and the
| Far East. For centuries these East
ern people have been asleep; but
when they once awake, the result
will be greater than the, widest
| imagination can visualize.
! Mr. Babson was asked if the Pa
! cific Coast has such a future why
are the Northwestern railroads now
so depressed' He replied:
Railroads are primarily made by
their managements,--not by the ter
ritorics which they serve. Men
make values-and vision, courage

ditioit will, however, not always con-
tinue.' ~ Ma
