WHAT MAKES A TOWN?
TOWNS
are made and sustained
like all goudgovernments, or aggregation?. of homogeneous people. We call it patriotism when we apply the principles to a clan or a nation. It takes all the1 essential factors of location, production, thrift, intelligence, and concentrated force of a population but it consts in something besides :ill this. It is the spirit of commerce which pervades a place that more than any thing else, makes and sustains a town or city. If farmers expect a good market for what they produce, they must patronize their home merchants and industrial shops, and not get their supplies by mail orders from far away in large cities. All interests must work together for mutual benefit, if all would prosper and endure. The quickest way to depress property, either real estate or personal in any town, in fact of killing a town, ife for farmers and citizens of the village, or town to do their trading elsewhere.
A town must have the patronage and support of the surrounding country in order to maintain its prestige and position as a thriving town or a commercial place. The growth of the mail order business and multiplication of such houses, has been rewkable in the past three or four fears and no one knows better than pe country merchant and business nan, how deeply they are cutting 'into the rural trade, and lowering the value of their property.
Instead of patronizing home trade, and spending their money, where it helps to build up their own town, people send their money to Chicago, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and elsewhere, under the delusion that they t'an buy the goods they need at wholesale prices—or as cheaply as their home dealers can—and thus save what they concieve to be the middle man's proffit. Granted that they do get some things cheaper, we doubt if upon the whole, they do any better, than they would had they secured the goods from a local dealer. They expect their home merchants to take their butter, cheese, eggs, potatoes, and other farm products, and pay for them the very highest market price but if they withold their own patronage from these local merchants they cannot expect that their home dealers can do as well by them as they otherwise would. They cannot keep up a stock, give reasonable credit to farmers, and pay running expenses, unless they have the trade and the support the people in the country and town •fa which they live and do business. Merchant and farmer should patronj2®each other, and 'mutually work or the interest of eaoh other, and so upport all needful enterprises, and bus standing together, make and
Ustain your men and town and there-
by become strong, enterprising and reputable. A few strong men, good citizens, and well-ordered society, will make a good town, in a good country, and draw people with capital to it, and permanent prosperity follow for all alike. Boys and young men take care of the highest and best interest of your locality, as this is real and true patriotism. Box ALDFR.
RECORDER'S REPORT.
Shows How Prosperity Mas Struck
riontgomery County with
its Tidal Wave.
The report completed by Recorder Webster ,'or the state statistician contains some figures on mortgages which are silent witnesses and mute monuments, eloquent of the story told of McKinley prosperity, and the benefits of gold standard doctrines. These figures are truly instructive to contemplate, and show how the wave of prosperity has washed away the troubles of the farmer and lifted the mortgage from his farm,
The number of deeds filed during the year was 987 and they involved an exchange of money to the sum of $1,196,463. There were 19 sheriff's sales deeds- involving $16, 960. There were four tax title deeds involving the splendid sum of $27.
395 mortgages involved being
During the year were filed, the sum $399,081.
On town property 381 mortgages were filed, involving $219,439. There were 12 school fund mortgages involving $10,921
There were 353 chattel mortgages, involving $96,689. There were 56 mechanics' liens, involving $2,953.
During the year therfe were 385 farm mortgages satisfied, involving $349,676.
There were 329 mortgages on town property satisfied, involving $209,970. Of chattel mortgages 132 were satisfied, involving $45,749.
There were 37 mechanics' liens satisfied, involving $2,574. We see that 395 farm mortgages were filed and 385 were satisfied an increase of 10 and involving an increase of debt of $49,405 as shown by the difference in values. And yet we are told that the farmer is getting out of debt.
On town property 381 mortgages were filed and 329 were satisfied showing an increase of 52 and an increase of indebtedness of $9469. Even the denizen of the city is not climbing the golden stairs of prosperity to any remarkable exten t.
There were 353 chattel mortgages and 135 old ones have been paid off an increase of 218 and involving an increase in indebtedness of $50,940.
The sum total of increase is $729,083 while $607,969 covers the amount of indebtedness lifted, leaviugj'a net increase of $121,114.
These figures clearly show that the payment of debt is not keeping pace with the contracting of debt.
Debt sometimes may indicate prosperity when it is contracted in the founding of new enterprises but in an agricultural county like Montgomery it can scarcely be considered such an indicator. The payment of old debts ought to keep almost even pace with the contracting of new ones if a healthful financial condition prevails. Allowing for all these it would scarcely seem that the people of Montgomery county are getting rich at a particularly dizzy rate.
