Lees than a mouth in which to pay your spring installment of taxes and those who do it uow will And tt so much more convenient than to wait tor that Busi weeks rush. The wheat crop over the country got off to a poor start last fall but rains and snows iu the western sections have improved the' conditions until now the experts are guessing we will have utmost an average yield. These days look more like spring than they really are and if you stand around a tew minutes without your top coat on you can easily get chilled through. It's a good lime to lie careful for its so easy to catch a serious cold at this time of the year. The statement of the- First State Bank shows that financial institution in excellent condition, with a growing reserve, deposits of more than two million dollars, loans of a million and a fine financial institution that the community may well feel proud of. Gold is being rushed to this country again so rapidly as to cause alarm. If we get it all • hoarded over here, other nation* will have to change their monetary bus* and we will be left with a pile of yellow good only for Jewelry aud filling teeth. The first three months oi the year have uol been as good from a business standpoint as was predicted by the experts, but we are ! still hoping and with some indications that the loss in comparison with former years, can be made up during the rest of the year.

ConI sequenily they arc willlug io go * th* limn io prevent another one i Whether they can d<> so or not is I | very doubtful. There will come! ,a point where the other nations of I !

Clifford Townsend will the RepaMlcaas make an issue. Which ime of the many laws, passed and • executed by Democratic governors, would they repeal? Would they discard our present tax system and go back to levies on farm* aud homes? Would they dare to repeal the I law* providing old age pension*! or set aside the unemployment hi-i i suraiice system? Would they abolish the present labor dtvimou which has kept tin* state free from serious labor dis- ; putes? I Would they go buck to the days lot constant fighting, with its inevitable violence and the hiring lof thug* aud guu men. to replace < the policy of arbitration slid friendship? Would they set aside ths great « hool system which ha* kept this state in the lead all during the days of Mpression aud reconstruction? Would they say that the present system of government under the reorganisation law. has not given ! responsible government an ucuepli>d reapoiislblllty?
