REAL PROSPERITY
A chechaco remarked the other
day that the town looked quiet and
received an answer, "Certainly. AH
infants are quiet—when they are
healthy.’’
It is not the best sign of prosper
ity in a town to see flocks of idle
people milling up and down the
streets. They may be spending a
little money but they are not pro
ducing anything. Rest is o.k. in its
season, but this is not the season
for rest. This is the season for ac
tive work, earnest work in the hills
and on homesites, developing the
district’s resources and preparing
for a well-earned vacation when
the weather man calls: "Ti-i-i-me,”
Every able-bodied mao is work
ing now and the call is for men,
and more men.
Hyder is an infant as towns go,
but we’ll tell the world she is a
healthy infant. She is nourished
by the wealth of the greatest silver
deposits on earth and will wa* fat
as the life-giving flow of wealth in
creases. She does not need to de
pend upon an influx of sucker mon
ey from the outside for her exis
tence.
The dollars that will go into the
upbuilding of this new town will be,
bright, clean dallars, fresh from the'
treasure vault of Dame Nature, un
soiled by handling in the marts of
trade, unknown to the slums of
chicancery and humbug—dollars
th :t have neyer been stolen, dollars
that never were used as a lever to
ruin any one, dollars that the confi
dence man and swindler have never
touched.
