SHALL WE MOVE'
Now that 'he News has railed th -
attention of the city and capital to the
advantages to be derived from tae
construction of a dam at some avail
able point above the city on the Ca-
nadian in order to procure water
power for the driving of an electric
current sufficient to light and operate
every factory in the city, how long
will it be before the matter is taken
up by either the city or some capital-
ists?
The waters of the Niagara Palls
have been harnessed and converted
into a power that is bringing the pr ►-
jectors thousands of dollars aniually
with but little additional expense on
tiie investment. What has and is b

p aces can be done here at an equal
ly small outlay. Cheap power ren-

It is accommodations surroundings
and cheapness of production that act3
as a drawing plvit for capital and
factories. No town can live from her
agricultural country i surrounding it
in the absence of factories to give em
p'oyment to laboring men and women
to consume the products of the soil.
It is just as essential to find con
sumption for the products of the farm
as it is a farm upon which can be pro
duced the articles of food ai d that
which enters into the manufacture of
the finished products. In the absence
of the necessary home market for
the produced on the farm there is
but a scant production, hence tno
higher the price to the few consurn
ers and the less the profits in th
production. What is most reeded <s
the advantages and facilities and in
the Canadian we find bath the facili-
ties and the advantages desired to
help build up and maintain the city
and draw population. The larger tM'
city, the more the people, the greater

With a gain of traffic and the return
of idle cars to their function of carry
ing freight the lines will get the bene-
fit of their recent reductions of ex-
pensea. Expenses were cut down to
bedrock in anticipation of dull traffic,
but receipts are increabi g every da>.
Doubtless a rise in transportation

UNDER NEW CURRENCY LAW
iTwf> Ntew York national J bank.*,
which stand at the head of the con
servative banks of the country, re-
cently returned to the federal gov-
ernment certain fedral funds which
they have held on deposit and at the
same time gave notice that they wi'.*
not in future receive for deposit any
government funds upon which inter-
est in demanded. It Is an irrevokabl
rule of these two banks that they
will not pay Interest upon any de
posits, and. as they do not pay inte
est upon the deposits of other peopl
firms and corporations, they will not
ma'ce an exception in favor of the
government
The recently enacted currency law
provides that national banks receive
ins; deposits of federal funds must pay
1 per cerit interest on such deposit*.
This clause gives governmental ap-
proval and Indorsement to a question-
able principle. In the competitions
likely to arise in banking for an In
crease of business Interest on deposit
is sometimes paid by certain banks
with the result that as the interest
so paid mounts higher and higher th
banks involved increase the ra es of
interest on the money which they
lend to cover these higher rates ani
in so doing take risks on lnsufflcie%t
security. The creditors of the banks
in order to get even for the hign
rates they pay must also take specu
latlve risks and in every financial
trouble like that of last October it is
noticed that those banks which pay
high interest on deposits are most

MONTANA ELKS CELEBRATE.
Missoula. Mont.. July 20.—Several
hundred Eagles, making noise enougn
for several thousand ordinary hu-
mans, arrived here today and took
entire possession of the Garden City.
The local lodge. 500 strong, gave the
visitors a hilarious reception and es-
corted them to their roosts, prepara-
tory to the opening of the state aerie
convention tomornow. The three
days following will be crowded with
sports and entertainments of every
known variety, for which the Missou-
la aerie has raised a fund of over
$5,000.
ADVERTISING TALKS.
Newspaper advertising Is 10 ^us.
ness what hands are to a clock. It !■
a direct and ceit.iln means of letting
the pub.lc know what you are doing.
In these days >f intense and v'gllant
commercial coufe*i a dealer who doej
not cdvertJse is like a clock that has
no hands. Ho has no way of telling
folks mhat he's i l. He can no morj
expect a twentieth century succefi
with nineteenth century methods than
he can wear the same sized shoes a
a man which fitted him In his boy-
hood.
His father and mother were content
with neighborhood shops and bobtail
cars. They were the best to be hv\
in their day. They were accustomed
to seek the merchant instead of being
sought by him. They dealt "arouud
the corner" in one story shops whicb
depended upon the Immediate friends
of the dealer for support. As long as
the city was made up ot such neign
borhood units, each with a full outfit
of butchers, bakers, clothiers, jewel-
ers furniture dealers and shoemakers,
it was possible for the proprietors oi
these little establishments to exist a il
make a profit
But as population increased, trans't
facilities spread, sections became spj-
cialized, block after block was entirely
devoted to stores, and mile after mile
became solely occupied by homes.
The purchaser and the storekeeper j
grew farther and farther apart it
was necessary for the merchant to
find a substitute for his direct per-
sonality which no longer served to
draw customers to his door. He had
to stretch a bond between the com
mercial center and the home center.
Rapid transit eliminated distance, but
advertising was necessary to infor«a
people where he was located and what
he had to sell. It was a natural out-
growth of changed conditions—tho
beginning of a new era in trade which
no longer relied upon personal ac-
quaintance for success.
The newspaper publisher, hitherto
a gossip, a retailer of Information, be-
came a first aid to commercial ad-
vancement The shopkeeper, hitherto
a petty tradesman, began to grow into
the dignity of a merchant.
Something more wonderful than the
fabled philosopher's stone came Into
being and the beginings of fortunes
which would pass the hundred million
mark and place tradesmen's daughters
upon oriental thrones grew from this
new force. Within fifty years it has
became as vital to industry as steam
to commerce.
Advertising is not a luxury nor
debatable policy. It has proven Its
case. Its r:oord is traced in the sky-
lino of the city where a hundred tow-
ering buildings stand as a lesson of
reproach to the men who had the op-
portunity but not the foresight, and
furnish a constant inspiration to the
young merchant at the threshold of
his career.
