amusement to read the knocks and

waiting for train in Caldwell we
purchased Denver Post and the first
thing that struck our eye was a scare

date line. stating that hundreds OF
Colorado people had been duped by
the land sharks of Idaho and were
returning in droves to that country,
where land sells for from $1,000 20
$4,000 per acre. OF course we can
only speak from conditions EXIST

here with the intention of locating
permanently. and few others who
were compelled to return to the
Grand valley to foreclose ON ranches
which they had sold ana upon which
the purchaser could not make the
payments contracted for. there has
not been any great number returned.
Further we can give the names OF
more than twice the above number

WAR AND PEAC7

A Washington dispatch tells MS
that secret report was sent to
the House the other day, from the
war department. and that it was re-
turned because that body cannot con-
slider a secret" report.
The secret" however, leaked out
and consisted in the alarming state
ment that the country is wholly un-
prepared for war; that there is woe
fun inadequacy of men. guns and am
munition; that the army should ne
recognized and that council of ma
tionaI defense. with a secretary Of
war at its head. should be created
by Congress.
The department, we suppose, had
an idea that whatever was communi-
Gated to the house house be forever
buried there and never be known to
the outside world. That is, no doubt,
the reason why it told that body of
the awful conditions of affairs. 1t
simply had to conhde in somebody
and tighten the burden, and so it
communicated with the House. What
pity the House could not lend a
willing ear!
We are wholly unprepared for war.
And yet since the Spanish was our
war budget has Increased from SOL
100000 to S134,OOO,OOO or $50 per
cent That is a respectable increase
considering that the average increase
of population during the past ten
years is only p per cent. For the
last eight years the increase in army
and navy has cost the people over a
thousand million dollars. In eight
years our increased expenses for war
purposes would have paid our ma
tional debt and left a nice balance.
For that sum we might have built
three Panama canals. We might
have redeemed three times as much
land as is now included in the rec
lamation program. And yet we are
not prepared What do the war lords
want? They now get about 60 PEI
cent of the national revenue; do they
want every cent of that revenue?
If this country, with the money now
devoted to war purposes, is wholly
unprepared it is best not to try &c
prepare any further. Let us rather
devote money and energy for Tho
promotion of the sentiment that dc
mands international arbitration in
all questions Of dispute Let MS worl
for peace until it shall be possible t.
assemble in some great capital a gen
eral parliament of all nations 60 en-

all have equal rights

THE LOGIC OF CHANCE

Governor-elect Johnson of Califor-
MIA declared in New York that his
state is going to adopt the initiative
and referendum, the recall ana other
progressive measures of government.
Looking backward in 1910, it
seems impossible that there should
ever have been time when there
was no Australian ballot The same
is true Of the registration law, AMI
yet the adoption of both was siren
uously opposed. Just as once there
was insistence that the world is fiat,
there are those who always resist
change.
But, it is the innovations that mark
the difference between us and the
South Sea Islanders. We changed,
and he resisted change He is still
the primitive man. while we, by
throwing primitive things into the
discard have climbed. step by step
to the heights Of civilization.
If all goes Wen, all the states will
ultimately have the initiative and
referendum. 1t is advancement. just
as the reaper was advancement. over
the grain cradle and just as the COM
bined harvested is a step in advance
of the reaper Its effectiveness in be-
half of human rights is far greater
than that of the Australian ballot
in its perfected form ana perfected
use, it will be the best agency in per-
feet self government.
AS Governor-elect Johnson says,
California will adopt direct legisla-
ton. The direct primary rescue
that state from railroad control The
citizens there have the means now
Of nominating officials direct. and
that makes officials responsive To
the wishes and purposes Of the cit
liens. The people have gained the
upperhand and in such cases they
always move Tor cleaner. purer and
better government. The initiative, the
recall and corrupt practices acl
are the inevitable logic Of the Cal
