What is the Matter With this Valley

What is the matter with this valley? Why don't it progress
faster with all it's wonderful hot water and other resources? This
is a question we are asked everyday of our lives. We ear tell Won
in a very few words, and yet the answer is one that we have refrained
from a long time. The answer in fact, is this. The promoters
OF all our resources are outside business men and the owners of the
hot springs are likewise on the outside and the whole works are ap.
parantly trying to sell to the other fellow instead of getting into the
collar and building up what would prove to be a dividend payer the
day it was finished. That's the answer. With M n two axcap
hons the resources of this entire valley are owned by outside capital
who don't are a rap whether we ever make any advancement or not.
The only advancement going on here in the valley today is being pro.
NOTED by home companies.

Damned By the Leaders of Their Own Party

The Laramie Republican has the following to say regarding mel
who prove recreant to party obligations:
Just how men who are republican candidates before repubi
can conventions, nominated by republicans and elected to Of
flee upon a republican ticket. can bolt their party caucus
and still claim republcanism, is beyond the reasoning powers
OF most party men. This Is a government of partiee. The
party in power is responsible to the people for the management
OF the affairs OF state. A majority of the representatives of
that party must rule. A small minority acting with the
OPPOSITE o nmay at times defeat the will of the majority party
but they also defeat their OWN political future and relegate
themselves to the political dumping ground, damned by the
leaders OF their own party and spurned by the opposition,
that has II o use for them except as chestnut rakers"

Apuroach Of the Vacation Season.

The vacation season draws near. Every
hody will drop the tools of trade for Q
week, ten days or longer and seek rest or
change of work where forest trees or
meadow grasses grow. or where Day
waves ripple or sea surge booms-
Vacation IS a general custom. Once

sary by everybody to shut up the house

not SO big that the country seemed .
long way of. Life was quieter. Your
olden citizen did not have to run to catch
an electric traction car and cling to
q strap. Perhaps he lived upstairs over
the office or shop, and at any rate home
was not so very far away. He did not
have to bolt his supper and hurry down
to the theater. He took his amusements
with greater calmness. or course he
went to hear Edwin Forrest. McCready,
Junius Brutus Booth and other real ac-
tors, and he would not miss hearing

violin. But he and his wife were in no

The short ballot simpiihes municipal
elections and concentrates municipal
authority and responsibility In one or
few hands instead Of In many. The Short
Ballot Organization. which has its head
quarters in New York city. Is conducting
a notable propaganda in behalf OF the
device which reduces the number OF eiec-
tive officers and increases the number OF
appointive officers and thus straightens
out many of the crooked places In poll
tics. OF the Short Ballot Organization
Woodrow Wilson is president, ana the
vice presidents are Winston Churchill OF

board comprises Lawrence F. Abbot.
Richard S. Childs, Henry Homes Foro'

In literature recently sent out by this
organization 1t is said that:
'The advocates of the short ballot prln-
ciple propose to simplify politics by max
ing coroners, city clerks, state treasurers,
etc, appointive. They want the states
to be as simple from the peoples stand

want all cities and counties to be mace
as politically transparent as the com,

This has a very reasonable SOUND and

Railroads Educating Farmers.

operating in the west and south, are lending
their aid to improve methods OF nus
bandry. This activity is inspired by
both altruistic and selfish purposes Bet
ter farming means more traffic. more
prosperity and more purchasing power In
tho territories served by the road.
There have been sent out by the rail-
roads corn specials. cotton specials. hog
specials. dairy specials and the like. with
demonstrators ana lecturers to spread
the gospel of bigger harvests along the
line. The theory of seed selection has

Diaz and q Recall.

f3peaktng to tho few followers VINO IN
LOYALTY and love had gathered TO say
eood-bye, former President Diaz express
"a his continued devotion to Mexico and
declared he would obey q call to return
and help the country II his services
snould at any time be needed. Is II
likely such a call Will ever be nnader VINO
may say?
Time of course IL an important element
in the question. The dethroned ruler IS
an old man, whose astonishing vigor
must be nearing it's end. And 1t VIII
reach the end the sooner for the trying
experiences he has just undergone. deavy
drafts have been made upon all OF MS
resources. the physical in particular. So
that If the name Of Diaz is to become
again one to conjure with for order ana
progress in Mexico 1t must be soen.
In considering the Immediate future for
Mexico two things should be taken into
account. The provisional government mas
q very hard row to hoe. Disorder Is
widespread, and a number OF personal
ambitions are clashing. Suppose the sit
uation gets beyond the power OF the au-
thorities to control Suppose de la Barra
and Madero, although working together
with good will, fail. Suppose next fall s
elections show no Improvement over the
elections held under the piaz regime, and
there is vigorous outcry against the re-
suit.
Suppose the credit of the country
shows a loss as a consequence or the
revolution and the uncertainty following.
Suppose business falls off. Suppose the
unemployed greatly increase in number,
and brigandage and kindred evils grow
menacing.
Suppose, with things at the height OF
general discomfort. some fiery orator. or
popular soldier, refers to the "old man
In his exile in terms eloQuently recalling
past services and expressing regret for
the impatience which overthrew him.
Suppose the assurance is given that the
former president Is harboring no resent
ments, and would not upon recall enter
upon a course of revenge.
The Mexicans in such circumstances
might turn to the old favorite. Revolu-
tions, 1t is true. do not go backward.
But the case described would be the put
ting an end to disorder and re-establish-
ing rule and prosperity.
Gen. Diaz in Europe will be an interest
inR figure. His fame Is widespread, and
IL everywhere associated with state-build-
ing of a high order under far moro than
ordinary difficulties. And maybe his
countrymen. when they hear of his re-
ceptions abroad and Of the honors paid
him, will be a little softened toward him.
Meanwhile. good wishes should go out
for those who have taken the situation in
hand and are pledged to their best en-
deavors for Mexicos welfare. They prob
ably appreciate the size of their under
taking. If they succeed. their achieve
ment will rank among the best. If they
fail, It will still be IN their power to do
something for their country, although one
might find II difncult to say at this time
