Idle capltal is no more productive
than an idle man, and yet many
owners OF capital are not III posi-
ton to employ it in business tor
themselves. They can put it to work
only by entrusting it to others.
At the same time, many men who
have the ability to use large
amounts of capital for the advan-
tage both of themselves and of their
communities do not possess suiil-
cient funds of their own to enable
them to engage in business without
assistance. They need somebody to
give them the necessary financial
backing.
One way in which a business man
may get such assistance is through
his bank. When the bank makes
him a loan, it shares for the time
being in the risks of his business.
A bank, however, cannot afford to
tie up its depositors' funds for an
indefinite period. The loans which
it makes must usually be repaid at
the end of few months.
Business men frequently need
these short term credits, but they
also need capital that will be in
vested permanently in their enter
prises. The manufacturer, for ex-
ample, must have the permanent use
of funds to enable him to invest in
a tract of land, erect building, and
install machinery. He cannot de-
pend on his bank to finance these
operations.
One way by which he may get the
permanent use of more capital is to
form a partnership with one or more
persons who have ample financial
resources and who are willing to
share in the risks and profits of his
business.
The partnership possesses many
advantages over the one-man con-
Germ. 1t not only provides larger
amount of capital, but it permits
specialization in management. One
of the partners, for instance, may
look after production, and another
may give his entire attention to
sales, each doing the work for

Arthur A. Murphy, New u. P.
Vice-President

period of seven years
Mr.. Murphy is one of the youngest
railroad men in the country holding
an executive position He will not b,
Al until next February. His first rail
road work started on August /, 1919
when he joined Charles l.. Cochrane,
a Portland attorney, then associated
with Mr.. Farrell, under six months
leave of absence from the district
attorneys office. His work had to do
with the executive management of the
Union Pacific properties then under
federal control. When the govern
ment relinquished control of the rail
roads in March, 1920, he was offered
and accepted position as attorney
for the company. He served under A.
G. Spencer, general attorney, until
Mr.. Spencer was promoted to general
solicitor in 1924. Mr. Murphy was
then named assistant general solicitor
at Portland, the position he held VI
to the time of his recent promotion
to assistant to Mr. Gray, president
or the Union Pacific.
Mr.. Murphy was born at Portland,
Ore, in February, 1886. He was edu-
Gated in the public schools of Port
land, entering Stanford University in
1908. He was graduated in 1908 with
a degree of Bachelor of Arts. He was
admitted to legal practice in 1908 and
became a member Of his fathers firm
His father for many years was district
attorney at Portland.
He was deputy in the district
attorneys office at Portland from
1913 to May IL, 1917, when he re-
signed to enter the first officers train
ing camp at Preside where he was
commissioned at first lieutenant and
assigned to Company b, 362nd Infan.

Up to seven years ago Arthur A.
~ Murphy, now assistant to the
President of the Union Pacific system,
knew very little about railroads ex-
cept as a means of transportation be-
tween Portland and California and
between the Pacific Coast to the At
lantic Coast on his way to war duty
in France. At least that Is an
acknowledgement he made in an in
terview with a daily newspaper re-
porter.
He now holds one Of the most re-
sponsible positions on the Union Pa
cific, having taken over many of the
duties of j. ID. Farrell, who retired as
vice president of the system on De-
cember Is. He must have learned u
lot about railroading in that short

The National Grange, in recent an

showed its interest in and sympathy
for the dairy industry by the adop-
ton Of series of resolutions, asking
for strict legislation on the subject
of inferior and processed cheese, en-
forcement of all legislation on the
subject of imitation dairy products,
adequate appropriations for the Blu

control and eradication of infectious
cattle diseases, preventing importa-
ton of adulterated or impure dairy
products, opposing any reduction in
existing tariff on vegetable oils, and
asking for tariff on vegetable and
other oils now on the free list.

The winter lettuce crop of the I'm
perial Valley in California, is reported
to be 10000 acres short of the acreage
planted. This shortage is due, the re.
port says, to hot weather and the poor
termination of the seeds planted.
Just what effect this shortage will
have on the entire crop of the Pacific
Coast, is problematical. Last year
with a similar condition in the I'm.
perial Valley there was still large
over-production of the early crop. The
fall crop, however, showed fair re.
turns to the growers.

l.. Larson, buttermaker for the
Lower Columbia River Dairymen's
Association, at .Cathlamet, won the
first prize for creamery butter at the
Dairy Show in connection with the
Pacific International Livestock Show
at Portland. This is no small honor
for Mr.. Larson, but when we remem-
Der that his butter was the highest
scoring at the Pacific Slope Dairy
Show last fall at Oakland, California,
it goes to show the uniformity of his

Some of the Idaho papers seem to
differ as to early newspaper history
of the state, and it looks to one of
the fraternity as though their files
and records must be incomplete.
The Idaho World, in June 1880,
said: "The Evanston Age" published
at Evanston, Wyoming Territory, by
VIM. E. Wheeler, is to be moved to
The Yankee Fork Herald, published
at Bonanza, Idaho, in it's issue of
June 26th, 1880, has this item:
"Blackfoot is getting to be one of the
Invest towns on the Utah & Northern,
Mr.. w. E. Wheeler, lately of the
Evanston Age, is establishing news
paper there, and when the Salmon
river country gets fairly open Black
foot will be the best town in the
Snake River valley. The Blackfeet
should stand by Mr. Wheeler for he
will give them paper worthy of their
support" In commenting on the new
paper the Herald says: idaho has
eleven newspaper" Some of those
extending their good wishes to the
new editor when his first edition was
out, were the, Idaho Democrat, the
Owyhee Avalanche, the Oxford En-
terprise and the Yankee Fork Herald.
Some other papers on his exchange
were The Statesman, The Idahoan
and the Boise Republican. It seems
probable, from other news items of
the time, that there were papers at
Lewiston, Malad and Salmon City.
The Oxford Banner was already de-
funct in May, 1880. No doubt the
publication of these articles has
created enough interest so that some
one can supply the names of the other
three papers, for the Register must
have been the twelfth newspaper then
in print in the territory. The above
is what 1 have cleaned from my own
files.
These early editors were empire
builders in the best sense. Many Of
them had had experience and associa-
ton with large eastern papers, but
had enough interest in this new west
to want to cast in their lot with the
other pioneers. They worked most
earnestly in furthering the interests
of their new home. They had stirring
news to print, too, for the country
was much occupied with Indian trou-
bles and mining excitement. But
even these did not prevent other de-
velopment, for while the Nez Perez
war of 1S77-78 was the most serious
of the Indian wars, at about that time
we find this item:
~. c. Anderson of Eagle Rock has
opened up new road from that place
to Kennedy's on Lost river about
fifty-six miles, striking Lost river
about forty miles from Eagle Rock.
The road is very level, there being
no hills to climb. There is an abund-
ance of grass on the route"
Other names prominently men,
toned at that time and still we'll
known are James H. Hawley, Geo. L.
Shoupe. Fred J. Keisel, C. c. Bunting,

Salisbury, Col. Bernard John Ramey,
Dick Chamberlain, Judge Morgan, w.

New cold storage rates put in eff
feet by the Port of Seattle on Novem-
Der 20 have been filed with the state
department of public works at
Olympia. The new tariff shows rate
increases in some cases and also
some decreases. The base rate for
storage for the first month was adj

per 100 pounds. The base rate for
storage after the first month was re-
duced from 1914 cents to 1OR cents.
Crushed fruit in barrels was advanced
from go cents to 70 cents for the first
