Natural Resources<

The question of the disposition of the
natural resources in the west has been
answered by some of the statesmen
there to the effect that these natural
bounties belong to the communities
where they exist and should be dis
posed of as those communities may
deem best The disposition that some
of them favor is their early absorption
by capital so as to enhance the imme-
date welfare of those communities.
This of course means that those
great resources shall become the prop
erty of powerful menopolies and that
the use of these powers shall so to the
building up of wealth rather than to
the advancement CT society. The rights
of posterity are nothing to these states
men. The use they propose TO make
of the forests, the water powers and
the mineral deposits is for temporary
exploitation, which will in the end serve
to make dependents and bondsmen of
the people.
The situation is very apt to bring
up the OLD question of how much of
Gods bounty shall go 70 making all the
people happy and how nluch to MAX
