WORK OF COMMERCIAL CLUB

st. James (Minn.) Plaindealer:
Every live town has a commercial
club.
Dead towns have none and Gene
teries do not need them.
The mission of commercial
club is to make good towns better
to make live towns livelier, and
to promote healthier business and
social conditions. In brief, the true
mission of any commercial club is
to make the community a better
place to live in.
Individualism may accomplish
something. Every business man
working by himself may get some
results. Organization and CO.
operative effort, if rightly directed,
can accomplish much more and 1t
is this cooperative idea that. gives
rise to commercial clubs and other
like civic bodies.
To promote better business is
one of the chief functions of COM
mercial club or chamber of COM
merce, and to do this 1t is needful
to keep a watchful eye on the
trade territory of the town and to
cultivate the trade center" idea.
1t is, for example, the business of
every commercial club to carry the
buy it in the home town. idea
to all the country side for miles
around, and as much farther as
possible, so that when any person
living in that territory contem-
plates buying any sort of merchan-
disc, he thinks first of all of the
home town as his trading point.
A live commercial club is sup
posed to, and can, cultivate among
corps-a solidarity of interest and
spirit of good working together
for the common good. A live COM
mercial club which carries on as it
should, can do away with petty
jealousies and rivalries which in
jure individual business men and
retard growth Of he town.
Through frequent meetings and
discussions petty differences can
be ironed out and grievances adj
justed

good things and be of great bene-
fit to the city IF. And 1t is pre-
cisely this stumbling block that
they must remove. They must fully
realize that they are in the pres
ent and not in the past, and that
this is an ever changing world.
Conditions today are different
from those of yesterday, and the
conditions of tomorrow will be diff
ferent from those of today. They
must learn to adapt themselves to
these changes, and constantly be
on their toes.
Present business conditions will
not last foreyer-in fact the COM
ing of the new day is at hand, and
light of the returning morning al
ready tints the hill tops. Times
are going to be better and all must
do their part to keep their city and
its business and social interests
abreast of the times, so that they
may be partakers of the good days
to come.
1t is easy to slide down hill, but
it requires grit and stubborn en-
durance to make the long climb up
wards. A live commercial club
must plan for the climb upwards in
the sunlight, and if they keep pull
ing together and pulling with a
will. they shall reach the top and
breathe the sweet air of more pros
porous times and happier condi-
tions. They cannot do it by work
ing each one by himself, but they
can do it by pulling together

TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT

We saw some startling figures
the other day. If they are correct,
and We have every reason to believe
that they are. since they are compil-
ed the New York Sun, responsible
newspaper, then we have reached
the position in this country where
one-tenth of all the people are on
the public payroll.
One hundred persons out of every
thousand are tax-eaters! That in
cludes National, State, county, mu
nicipal, township and village en-
ployees. Add to those the number
of pensioners and persons being
supported by old age relief funds,
in poorhouses. prisons, and insane
asylums, and it is easy to believe,
as Senator Metcalfe of Rhode Is
land asserts, that every six people
in the United States are carrying
a seventh on their backs.
That is the penalty we are pay
ing for our easy policy of letting
government" do everything. 1t ia
because of this enormous host OF
tax-eaters that the burden of tax
alton has become too heavy to bear
There must be public officials to
enforce and administer the laws, OF
course. There is no escaping from
a certain percentage of public en-
ployees. But the unacceptable ten.
dency of our willingness to let pro-
fessional politicians run our public
affairs is to increase the number
of jobs at public expense.
Politicians hold the power by
taking care of their supporters
! We think it is foolish to expect
them to change their own methods
voluntarily. But we also think that
unless there is a speedy curtailment
of the cost of government, State
National and local, there Is going
to be general uprising of indig-
nant taxpayers who will throw all
the politicians, of all parties, out
of their jobs and compel them to &c
back to earning an honest living
