London, Dec. g.. Tommy Burns, of

Greater Elasticity In Our Cur

Calls Attention to Abuse
Of Injunction and Urges
S.Hour Day in Message.
SOME POINTS IN THE
PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

When the misdccds OF successfully
dishonest men are discovered, suffer.
ing comes not only upon them, but
upon the innocent men whom they
have misled.
There may be honest differences Of
opinion as 70 many governmental pol.
icies, but surely there can be no such
differences as to the need Of unhinoh.
ing perseverance, in the war against
successful dishonesty.
Capitalization in business has al.
ready come and cannot be avoided or
nndone, and the public az
large can only protect itself from
certain evil effects Of this business
Capitalization BY providing better
methods for the control through the
authority already centralized in the
national government by the constitu-
tion itself
Until the national government as
sumes proper control Of interstate
commerce, in the exercise Of the au-
thority il already possesses, II will be
impossible either 10 give to or get
from the railroads full justice.
Combination is not only necessary
but inevitable.
Corporation and labor union alike
have come to stay. Each If properly
managed is a source Of good and not
evil.
Power Of supervision over big bust
ness concerns engaged in interstate
commerce would benefit them as Il
has benefited the national banks. In
the recent business crisis it is note
worthy that the, institutions which
failed were institutions which were
not under the supervision and control
OF the national government.
we need a greater elasticity in our
currency.
No legislation can by any possible
ity guarantee the business commune
ity against the results of speculative
folly.
When an individual mortgages his
house to buy an automobile, he in.
vites disaster.
There is an evident and constantly
growing feeling among our people
that the time is rapidly approaching
when our system of revenue legisla.
tion must be revised.
The two great evils In the execu-
tien Of our criminal laws today are
sentimentality and technieality.
Both Of these evils must be re-
moved or public discomfort with the
criminal law viii continue.
\ / earnestly commend to the atten-
ton Of Congress this matter, SO that
sosne way may be devised which will
limit the abuse Of injunctions.
The general introduction Of the
eight hour day should be the goal
toward which we should steadily tend,
and the government should set the
example in this respect.
Nothing is more needed that the
best type Of industrial school. the
school for the mechanical industries
in the city, the school for practically
teaching agriculture in the country.
We cannot afford to lose that pre-
srninently typical American, the
farmer who owns his own medium
sized farm.
The country Is iinquestionably on
the verge Of a timber famine Z.
There should be no tariff on any
forest product grown in this coun-
try.
/ commend to the favorable con.
sideration Of the Congress postal
savings bank system.

ST. Pau, May 29.--An order re-

far the largest fort In the United
States in point Of area, comprising
100000 acres. It Is extensively built,
the buildings being of the most mod
ern and up-to-date types Of their
kinds. Situated near Hayre, Mont,
its boundaries are contiguous to the
British possessions. and for years was
considered the most Important fort in
the northwest, owing to the many
trails the Indians had made through
its reservation in order to reach the
British border after committing bold
depredations on this side of the line.
It was through this reservation that
Sitting Bull and his tribe Of Sioux
traversed after committing the Gus
ter massacre. The post was estab-
lished in May BIS. FIJI.
Fort Keogh. the other abandoned

There does not seem to be any too
great degrees of certainty with re-
gard to frontier towns. The new
town Of seim in the newly settled
part of Butte county, South Dakota,
will be placed on wheels, both liter
ally and fguratively speaking and
moved twelve miles to Lemon, new
town on the Milwaukee extension
that cuts through the southwestern
part Of North Dakota. Since the rail-
road mountain will not go to Ma
homet, the village Mahomet will go
to the mountain. Fortunately, the
improvements in new towns are
largely of the portable variety and
aside from the discomfort and incon-
venience of moving, the work can be
accomplished without great loss. But
to be forced to move to a town named
Lemon is not altogether pleasant.

dents Of the old town Will remain

President Earring of the MilWau-
kee has returned from his trip OF
inspection of the new Milwaukee ex-
tension through North Dakota and
on to Butte and the coast and gives
to the settlers along the lire the COM
forting assurance that there will be
no cessation of the work on the ex-
tension and that trains will be rum
ming from Minneapolis to Butte by
January /. He says there are i've to
six thousand men and three thous-
and teams working along the grade
between the Missouri river and Ter
ry, Montana, and this does not in
dictate any purpose of the railroad
company to abandon the work, even
temporarily. A new transcontinental
line through North Dakota will work
great change In the western and
southwestern part of North Dakota
It will mean the addition Of sthous-
ands of new settler, the opening up
of many farms and the development
of much territory to add to the
wealth and resources of the state.
