CONSERVATION EXAGGERATIoN

1t appears that tic usual exaggcra-
ton which faddists and extremists are
so fond of, has much to do with the
organization and trumpet blowing of
the co.called conservation of the ma
tional resources movement.
This fad arose from tho notion in
the minds Of the Eastern people that
it would be a good thing for them,
after having cut and slashed the nat.
ural resources of their own region at
their own pleasure, to forbid the peo-
pic Of this sparscly settled, arid West
from following their example.
1t was comparatively easy for them
to open and settle the well.watcred, g,
rich soil of the East, but in order TO
get on with ii they found it neces
sary to use whatever resources were
attainable in the vicinitics of their
settlements. The people of this West
had much harder task TO settle and
develop the arid country than the peo-
pie Of the East ON the Atlantic Coast
and the valley of the Mississippi, had
ptIplN tH'lh'
But in order TO effect the interfering
purpose. it was found insdvlsable to
state that purpose in set terms; and
so, under various misleading guises.
they called on the conservation propa
candists to issue for their purpose, cx-
| aggeratcd reports as TO the waste and
the trespasscs which the people were
committing when left 10 themselves.
An instance Of this gross cXaggera-
| ton has recently come to light in the
| figures submitted by the Federal
scare head builders in connection with
| the Michigan forest fires Of last fall.
| The Federal experts reported the dam
age from those fires at $44,00o,000, but

of Michigan has recently made his re-
port on the damage caused by those
fires, and after full investigation, fixed
| the amount at $2,5I5,4 ,446; that is, the
estimate of damage which was urged
under the conservation policy was moro
than sixteen times as great as the ac-
tual loss.

calities. the same gross cxargcrarions

FARMERS STORAGE OF WHEAT.

If the farmers of this country rally
faithfully to and stand stcadfastly by
the proposition to pool their wheat,
there is no doubt but that they can
smash the spectators. They can eliml.

far more effcctually than any statute

grain. and most of them could hold it,,

The Farmers Union, with its numcr-

This would effcctually Kill off the

farmers would be in command oil all

Among the speeches made mt tho

support of the proposition TO amend the

OF the levy and collection of State

lion of a State capitol. The opposition

that press. however, any dissent from
Mr. Ualloran 5 plea in favor of the
Stale capitol tax, and hope that the ma
lcvolcncc of The church Republican press
will not range it in opposition TO the
