The Business of the Country. Reports from leading commercial enters indicate that business through- out the country is excellent, in spite of the tact that the condition of labor, and the stock market, as manipulated by Wall street, have a strong tendency to depress. The Wall street pirates seem to take a somewhat somber view of the immediate outlook, though the busi- ner;s men generally do not share this micomfortable feeling. Stocks are. down ;Lay below what seem fo be rea- sonable figures, and the holders of such securities are naturally distressed. The reason for this gloomy foreboding is hard to account for, and several theories are advanced in explanation. The leading one, and it is shared by many students of industrial subjects, is that the relation between capital and labor has become so strained that the struggle must lead to temporary disas- ter to both. But aside from the Vail street flurry conditions are all favorable to business prosperity. Many of the strikes that worried the whole people of the United States during the past summer have been settled, and some of. the prospec- tive \walk -outs\ did not occur. With the labor atmosphere somewhat cleared up, a return to that business confidence which the country demand may be an- ticipated. In the Northwest, it is reported, col- lections are good and that crop reports indicate much better returns than were expected some weeks ago. The two great railroads of this northern country report heavily increased earnings, and other roads also show large profits for the past month. Now here are some interesting facts as summerized by an exchange: \Taking the country at lige, fifty Lampanies report a gain of 10.21 per cent. in gross ear rungs for the first week in September, ii.37 per cent. for the second week i and 8.59 per cent. for the third week. This is certainly an ex cellent showing in the face of increased operating expenses.\ A Halt in New York City. From now on for at least a year and perhaps a longer period, an extensive decline is looked for ink& building in- dustry in Greater New York. Heads of the largest contracting firms in the trade estimate the coming shrinkage at anywhere from $40,000,000 to $8o, - A Complete, Wide Awake, Big Down to Date Drug Store * * * This isn't a \Little corner drug store;\ nor is it one of the \Little old fashioned drug stores.\ It is a lively, busy drug store, in which an attempt is made to make it complete in all of its departments. We have already made this store one which people in many parts of the county speak highly of. A trip to Le istown is not complete unless you visit our store.

Basing the shrinkage at say $6o,000,000, the earnings of working- men in the building trades will be cut down by $30,000,000 in the next year. Workingmen employed in the plants of the material -producing concerns will also suffer by the decrease in trade. Talks with the largest builders in the city show that in their opinion the financial situation is responsible for the shrinkage almost as much as the mud- dled conditions in the labor world. The importance of Sam Parks as a menacing factor in the situation -has largely decreased, it is said. Parks has already wrought about all the trouble he is capable of making. A prominent builder said a few days since: \The trade is in a transitory stage from boom times to dull times. The capitalists who are really the lead- ers in building operations there can not see their way clear to any profit in ven- tures e Oh everything costing so much.\ Playing it on Helena There are some games that seem to never grow old. Or to put it in another ..ay, there are games that are old, but they can be played on some people just the same. Now one would natur- ally suppose that the barkeepers of Helena would be \onto\ all kinds of devices that are pla)ed for the purpose or swindling. But it is evident that the average Helena barkeep is a hayseed. While the state fair was in progress a gang of men went horn one drinking those who stop off there, and when an outsider gets in and retaliates it is no more than fair that he should get away with the boodle. _ Politics in New York grow warmer as the weahter grows cooler. They have started a mining boom in the Bitter Root valley. A good many who lush in a ill a little later on chew the bitter root of reflection. William Jennings Bryan is admic- istering on an estate valued at $250,- 000. There are some jobs that pay better than preaching calamity. The socialist party and the prohi- bition party will never make much headway in this country until they lop off some of their \extrPme views.\ There are a good many merchants making money in this country. It may be added that there are a good many merchants n ho advertise. You can rest assured the town or district you live in will never amount to mucla if you sit down and never make an effort to awaken outside in- terest in it.
