NEWS ON RUSSIA
Workers are Fareing Better There
Than In Other Countries of the
World.

Hibbing, Minn.-Edward Gron-
dahl, a former Hibbing man, who
is now located in Finland, in re-
cent letter to the Independent,
gives some interesting sidelights
on the political situation in Fin
land. He states that "at the re-
cent election in that country the
Social-democrats won 60 seats
while the communists were able to
capture 30, giving the working
people representation of 80 out of
the 200 representatives, which
shows that the working people are
waking up to the need of getting
some of their numbers in the law
making bodies"
Unite On Major Problems
"The social democrats are OPP
posed to the communists but they
work together on many of the
major problems that confront the
| government" he states. Finland
is like other countries and is per-
scouting the communists and the
prisons are full to overlooking
with them. Recently the minister
of justice gave orders to the gov
/ errors not to run down any more
criminals as the prisons were over
crowded and that there would be
no room until spring"
In dealing with the Russian sit

that we are pretty well acquaint-

COPPER PRICE CUT
TO l3C RECENTLY

New York, May 5.-Apparently
convinced that the recent cut of 4
cents a pound in the domestic
price of copper was not sufficient
to attract new and extensive buy
ing, a group of leading producers
Monday announced a further cut
of l cent, making the new price Is
cents a pound. The Accent cut
from the 18-cent level was made
April Is.
1t was understood that the Gug-
genheim, American Smelling and
Refining, Anaconda Copper and
the Phelps-Dodge organizations
effected the cut, but that a few
others continued to quote IA cents,
while other producers were not
publishing quotations.

Owning real estate will go a long way toward making all citizens a booster for the home town.

THE WEEKLY NEWSPAPER

A few years ago observers saw" the large metropolitan newspapers with their state wide and, in some cases, nat ional circulation driving the rural press out of business. Some went so far as to predict a time near at hand when only very large communities could financially support even one newspaper.
 These groundless prophecies were inspired mainly by con- solicitations and suspensions of weekly and small daily news paper then taking place and to some extent still continuing. But one might have predicted as easily the passing of the metropolitan press, for whole sale consultations and suspen- sions were taking place among city papers during the same period.
 The truth is that the country found itself in the position of having an excess of newspap- CTS and some had to drop out of the long and bitter struggle for bare existence. The saturat- ion point had been passed long before, and the retreat to the point of safety is now nearing consummation.
 The result has been larger and better and more reliable

newspapers. And newspapers as whole, from the smallest weekly to the largest daily, were never more prosperous. Men everywhere are coming more and more to understand and appreciate the part the ru- ral press is taking in the af- fairs of their community and of of the nation. And it's useful ness has increased with it's prosperity and the public con fidence in it.

ON BEING A HOMETOWN
 BOOSTER

This paper believes in Hyder and in Hyder's future. It be- lieves that Hyder is destined to be a greater community than it is today. It believes also that the great majority of the people living in Hyder have an abiding faith in the future of the camp and district. It is this faith that has built the camp and it is this same faith that is going to continue it's future upbuilding.
 With its sister town of Stew art, Hyder, will one day be- come the center of one of the largest and most vigorous and prosperous centers O f the North. The land is filled with mineral wealth that will one day be exploited on scale of which we little dream in this day. Hyder will one day become the western terminus of a great transcontinental rail- way system and with Stewart will become the avenue of a vast commerce between the United States and Canada and Alaska and the Orient. The marvellous scenic splendors of the upper Salmon and Texas and Chickamin areas will one day become the mecca of thou sands of automobile tourists, who will come in their own cars over the great internat- ional highway that will extend from Alaska to the uttermost ends of South America, with a branch to Stewart and Hyder and down the Chickamin val ley to the great Pacific. Blessed with a most wonderful summer climate, possessing the utmost sublimity of scenic grandeurs to delight the eye, the district will become seas onal playground for thousands.
 That these things are bound to come is as certain as the coming of the sun and no spec ial gifts of foresight are needed to envision their coming.

 We came across an article the other day concerning the "easy-terms" offered buyers nowadays. It is the diary of one of the victims and we be- lieve it is worth repeating here.

 February 4. Paid install- ment due on car. Bought a radio set on easy terms. Fine set. Payments will be small and monthly.
 March '. A little late with payment on car this month, and will have to let the radio payment go over until April, as I bought set of books and paid $11 down. Very fine books. Everybody should have this set of books.
 April Is. Borrowed $50 from the boss to meet payment on car. The radio man came to take away the set, but we put out the lights and weren't at home. The chump hung around all evening, so I couldn't see to read the books.
