lSlation it was learned, embrace double purpose, the linking of federal control of corporations with such amendment to the Sherman antitrust law as will relax the rigors of that statute, which now forbids combina- tions that are not desgined to work any public injury.
 The Sherman Law.
 The president will impress upon con- gress in his message that the two ideas are so connected that it would be unwise if not impossible to attempt one without the other. Inquiry was made at the White House as to what specific change in the sherman law the president would recommend to congress, with the result that the in quirer's attention was called to a pas sage in the presidents speech at Prov. incetown, where he said:
 'The principle of the Sherman law, so far as it prohibits combinations which. whether because of their extent or their character, are harmful to the public, must always be preserved. Ul- timately. and I hope with reasonable speed. the national government must pass laws which, while increasing the supervisory and regulatory power of government will also permit such use- full combinations as are made in ab- solute openness and as the representa- tives of the government may previous. ly approve.
 But it will not be possible to per init such combinations save as the sec ond stage in a course of proceedings of which the first stage must be the ex- ercise of a far more complete control by the national government"

Clutch of Treaeherous Mire - Only
 Head Seen When Help Came.
 Belleville. \. J.. Nov. 12.-Trapped in a duagmire into which he stepped when following a dog which was Chas. ing a rabbit. John Cronin of this town narrowly escaped death in North Ar. cred by Chief of Police Flynn and Cronin's hunter companions Cronin had sunk so far into the quagmire that only his head was visible. The dis. treSsed yelpings of Cronin's dog had attracted attention. If the rescuers had delayed their coming five minutes lon ger all trace of the man and his gun would have been lost, and the disap. pearance of Cronin would have passed down as one of the mysteries of local history.
 It was with great difficulty the man was saved even after he had been dis. covered. His hands and arms were in the grip of the mire. and he could do nothing to help himself. Risking the danger of being sucked down. Chief of Police Flynn crawled out on saplings hastily cut. helped Cronin to get his hands and arms out of the deadly Onze and told him t0 hold on to the sap. lings until he could be dragged ont. After a terrible Wrenching Cronin was pulled to hard ground. He was sO weak from fright and exhaustion that his companions had to carry him a long distance to find medical assist snce

Sank In Wading Pool.

Cronin ran for about five minutes. then saw in his path a black and seem- ingly shallow pool Without thinking of danger he started to wade through It. When he was halfway across he sank to his hips. Still he did not real ize his danger. It was not until he tried to lift his feet that he realized they were fast.
 That fact disturbed him, but 1t was not 1lntil he felt that he was slowly sinking that he became thoroughly frightened. He struggled to free him self. but the only result was that he sank more deeply. He realized he was in the grip of a quagmire and that unless help arrived quickly he would he sucked down and smothered. The mud was up to his chest when full realization of his danger came to him Holding his gun up. he discharg- ed it. The sound rang through the woodland. Cronln thought the Hymns and Curran were following him. He had no Idea they had gone in another direction hunting for game for them selves.
 There was no response to the first shot Cronin yelled for help until he was hoarse, and then he discharged the other load in the gun. Ii. too. fail ed to bring any response. His friends heard fl. hut they thought he was shooting at rabbits and soon would re- join them.
 Dog Finds Him at Last. Presently Cronin was encouraged by the appearance of his dog and the loud barking il set up when it discovered him. By that time the mans arms and his gun were beneath the mud The dog started several times to 70 out to Its master. but instinctive fear caused 1t to back away. Then it began to howl dismally. Flynn and Curran by that time had worked their way around tO where they could hear the bowling. Thinking CrOnin might have injured himself with his gun. they hurried toward the sound CronIn heard their shouts for him. hut his vo- ral cords were paralyzed. and he could not reply.

JAPAN EXCLUDES CHINESE.

Japan will have no alien labor within
her borders. The familiar cry, "No
Chinese cheap labor" is raised through
out the land, and in response the Jap
anese government, that raises its hands
in holy horrora the thought Of American
and British agitation against cheap Ash
attic labor, hss not only put up the bars
againstiC Chinese who wish to come there
to earn $3.50 month, but has driven
from the country a large pumher of
others whose entry had been tfficisliy
sanctioned.
The fact that Chinese cheep laSor was
being imported by contractors engaged In
railway construc i'm reused the labor
guilds and iospred the press to Wig
orous protest. The government lost no
time quibbling, but ordered the immed-
late deportation of the several hundred
Chinese covlies who had been admitted
aud we're peacefully at work and pre-
vented the admission at the port Ut Kobe
of others who had come to join them.
At the very time the government OF
Japan is excluding Chinese coolies work
men the Chinese territory OF Manchuria
is, according to all reports, overrun by
thousands of japanese coolie. Some OF
these were driven out of Korea By the
Japanese authorities as undesirable res
idents.

Collector P. Davis Oakley has voluntarily
withdrawn the personal bohd Of $25, 1000,
given for the proper performance Of his duties,
and has substituted the bond Of fidelity COM
pany for the same amount. This commen'
dable action deserves a passing comment.
Mr.. Oakley found no difficulty whatever in
getting bondsmen, but, whoever his bonds
men might be, there could be no denying that
they had put the collector under direct per
sonal obligation TO them. 1t is far more indie
pendent and self respecting, to 90 down into

giving its bond for you. This cost him some
money, but with that he buys complete per-

should be widely followed. 1t is the wsy to
do business; and 1t Is no reflection upon
willing friends to go instead to company.
On the contrary, 1t Is doing them favor.

The Presidential Pistol,

Here is an opening for the Molly-cod
dlers. President Theodore Roosevelt
is a pistol toter. 1t is related that
during the ceremonies incident to the
Masonic temple cornerstone laying at
Washington on Saturday the president
became d-isarranged, exposing to view
a revolver in the presidential hip-pock
ct. 1t is recorded that Mr.. Roosevelt
was visibly embarrassed put that he
promptly concealed the deadly weap-
on ald laughed off the incident.
1t will be explained that Mr.. Roose-
welt being warned by the fate of two
other presidents is justified in packing
a gun in his hip-pocket for self-protec-
ton. But who eve heard of an as
sassin ever giving his victim al oppor-
tunity to defend himself. Presidents
Garfield and Mckinley might have had
a nalf dozen pistols on their persons
and that would not have stayed the as
sassin's bullet or afforded any protec-
tion to those two presidents when they
received their mortal wounds.
NO, q pistol III the MP pocket ices
not protect one from the assassin, moi
unless the intended victim has been
warned and furnished with a descrip-
ton of the assassin. But the presi-
dent is always closely guarded by Sc
cret service men who are constantly
on the alert aad closely scrutinize
every person that approaches the pre-
sident.
Why, then, does the president join
the ranks of the pistol toters n set
an example that is criminal? A pistol
toter is a very undesirable citizen"
because he is always looking for and
expecting trouble. And when you
come to think about it, the president
is built on those lines He calls every
man who dares not agree with him a
liar" and goes out of his way to in
suit writer's of stories. Maybe Mr..
Roosevelt is expecting a call from

President If the great beneficient
object which we had in view is to
be so great as all nature, n all the
operations of nature show TO every
man it will be, the forest reservations
should be kept up if they do cost the
Government. The moment that you
introduce the feature of making them
profitable, then you extend h reser-
walton over tracts and areas tnat are
not forests where it never ought to
have been extended, and you depart
the original project upon whicn
we embarked. They were not estab-
lished for business and revenue, but
for benevolent and beneficielt purpos
es, and the forest reservations ought
to have een kept in that way, devoted
to that. and nothing else. We have
departed from that and have made it
a great business enterprise, in which
the Government is engaged, and the
question of profit to the Government
has usurped the place of what was orr
ginally intended should be a great pro
iect of benevolence and beneficience
in order to hold back and conserve
the waters"

MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRESS.

the artist had in mind.
Telegraphic dispatches are much
alike in quality of composition, from
day to day, though describing an ever
shifting panorama of events,"a bare
statement of facts without ornament.
But yesterday a brief item in the Rec
ord from Boise. Idaho, bore the touch
OF an artist-maki1g us forget the re-
voting stories that have e coming
under the Boise date-line since the
/ HAYWOOD trial began. The dispatch
told of a nineteen months old baby
being lost il a wilderness of sage
brush, mis- throat parched with thirst
for forty hours, his legs torn n
bleeding from the thorns." and of ev-
sral hundred men being engaged in
the search. Not much description
only a few touches that brought out
the whole picture by suggestio1-then
finally: "'Pony-baby ride home?
questioned the ~youngster, looking
wideeyed at the man who found him.
You bet you can, bless your heart
was the answer"
That dispatch went to hundreds of
Associated Press papers, and as it was
read in thousands of homes last night,
eyes were filled with tears, there was
heaving of bosoms. and gasping for
breath in the intensity of mingled
anxiety. sympathy and joy. The wires
faithfully carried the whole picture,
painted IN the most vivid coloring OF
simplicity. The very presence of that
baby was felt and en-an every
body saw a different pair of wide
eyes and heard a familiar voice-eveh
felt the delirious joy of clasping he
little one and uttering that fervent
BLESS your heart"
Had that article been written in the
usual ~stereotyped form. it would have
read something like this:
THE nineteen months Dc child of
Lawrence Marsh, which wandered
away from home Saturday vas found
yesterday, after a search by a large
number of men, aad was restored to
his parents"
You might have read it, but it
would have scarcely made a ONE S
impression. The inspiration of the
artist was in presenting the heart of
the story, and emitting a long rigma-
role about now the child happened to
get lost, how the neighbors were
aroused, and how many men, horses
and dogs engaged in securing the
country.
You know in u own heart all
about how the parents felt, aid how
eagerly even strangers Joined in the
searcn-but that is a story to be talk
ed over afterward in detail by the
neighbors. The artist seized the fea-
ture that conveyed a thrill TO the
better nature which revolts at sensa-
tioaaiism and ~high-sounding adjectives
that confuse instead of describing.

FOREST RESERVE POLICY.
People of the West Do not Oppose
Reserves But Are Fighting the
Revenue Feature.

There has been some criticism of
the proposed Public Lands Convention
at Denver June 1920, on the ground
that it was intended to oppose the
forest reserves. This Is not true. The
people of the west generally favor
the forest reserve idea as IL was
edly opposed to the revepue producing
scheme into which it has deteriorated
The people of the eastern states will
not insist upon this imposition upon
the west when they understand the
situation and just what is being done.
An indication of his came during
the debate on his subject in the Sen
ate in January. The Senate had been
discussing the revenue that Mr.. Pin
cnot had been realizing from the re-
serves and estimating how long it
would AXE to make the reserves not
only selfsustaining but revenue pro
ducing. Senator Hale, of Maine inter
rupted Senator Flint, who was speak
ing for the administration plan, and
the following debate ensued:
Mr.. HALE. q do not want to in
trued upon the time of the Senator
from California, but does the Senator
think that in the scope of the original
forestry reserve proposition for the
conservation of the forests the ques-
ton of their being selfsustai1ing en-
tered at all into the consideration of
their establishment? I did not so un-
derstand. / understood that it was a
great project-to keep these forest
tracts for the purpose OF holding wa
ter, to make, as l said beforehand
/ do not wish to repeat-to make it
more equal in its flow and distribu-
ton. I did not understand that the
Government, into whose hands We
put this, was to go into any form of
business upon these reservations, and
the question OF whether they were
self sustaining did not enter into my
mind In the slightest degree"
MR. FLINT: Does the senator be-
lieve that forest reservation should
be maintained at the expense OF the
Government of the United States ?"
MR. HALE: @U7doubtediy. Mr..
