Ulllllll S Sr. Paul., Minn., Jan. 10.-In a speech ' before the Commercial Club a few nights ago James J. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railway, lnade some pungent observations regarding commercial condi- tions ln the nation. “The nation at large," he said, “is pros- perous. Ii’ we get down, however, to a close exlnllnution, we will readily see that the nation is living profllgatoly. We are selling out ournatural resources, ex- ploiting thclll as fast as we can without building up industries onli trade relations to take their place when exllntlsted. “It is only aquestion of time till our timber is exhausted. Our public domain is all gone and the nation cannot longer boast that it has homes for all. \Vhere are the immigrants rushing to our shores to emi up?

Mr. liiii closed his address with ex- pressing n hope that steps would be taken to conserve the national resources before it was too late and to cstablisll ht-til-r trade relations so that foreign lnarkels might be had for the increasing output of our industries. lie especially urlzed better trade relations with Canada. iliilli ilW Sllll il lliillllilllllill Fnennnlcrox, Jan.
