fact that notwithstanding the present
high tariff on raw wool which is over a
per cent. ad valorem millions of dollars
worth of the raw product IS imported an
rually into this country The present
ieh tariff is therefore not prohibitive.
The enormous consumption of raw wool In
tbs county is far in excess of the native
supply. If a Al per cent. tariff does not
prevent vast importations. it can readily
lie foreseen that reduction of the raw
wool tariff to 90 per cent. will practically
destroy the present opportunity of Ameri-
can farmers to realize profit on sheep
raising.
During the last 10 years or more sheep
raising In ST. Lawrence county has very
largely increased so that to-day nearly
every farmer has a small flock of sheen
from which he derives a substantial
rrofit Interest in sheep raising In this
county has been clearly shown In recent

CALIFORNIA S WILD INDIANS
Remnant of Tribe Tint Has Kept
Itself Hidden for Forty Years.

(From the San Francisco Chronicle)
The discovery Of tic remnant of tribe
of Indians hiding in a wild and unsettled
portion of Tehama county by scientists
from the University Of California has led
to the keenest interest among anthro-
biologists, and IN effort is being made to
have the governments of the United States
take charge of the remaining members.
Professor A. l.. Kroeber of the depart
ment of anthropolocy of the University of
California writes:
THAT there should he a tribe of entire
ly wild Indians at this date in so thickly
settled State as California seems alb
solutely incredible
when the first rumor OF tho untamcd
abor!glnes in Tchama county reached the
University OF California; it was known
at once who the Indians must BE- if they
existed at all, for the so-called Kombo
or Mil Creek tribe of this region had
long been regarded us one of the smallest
and at the Same time most unique tribes
In California. Tut as this band was last
seen IN 1870 the possibility of their having
been able to keep themselves entirely hid
den for forty years was remote.
AN expedition headed by r r. Water

anthropology, was out Il month, and

average value of waste land Is s. per
acre 1t will be seen that the value of one
third of the area of Vermont could be
Increased ten fold The length Of time
necessary to do this cannot be definitely
fixed but probably on an average the land
could be brought into condition so 1t
would become productive enough to more

value of the land could he increased from
four to five fold in the next half century.
The practicabilitY of such Improvement
Is shown by the experience of the State
forests in Europe where we showed some
time ago the forests are paying a yearly
profit OF about $3.50 per acre. This would
re 20 per cent. profit on the average value
of virgin forest land in Vermont to-day.
We know Of no other form of investment
that is surer to provo profitable than the
intelligent development of Vermont waste
and forest lands. The value of forest

will be the result of increased profits from

CONSERVING HUMAN LIFE
If We nre TO Prosper and Progress ms
n People, We Must Look to the
Protection of the Individual.
(Thomas ]. Mahon in La Follettes)

Why not conserve ourselves? If con-
servation Of forests and waterpowers and
minerals, If conservation of property Is
good why not tackle the question OF the
conservation of human life? Isn't II OF
greater Importance, doesn't 1t go to the
happiness Of the home and through that
to the well-being and prosperity OF the
nation?
great humane movement Is sweeping
through the world. 1t Is finding express
sion even IN our legislative bodies. We
have felt that the time has come when we
| must pause for a moment In our CONNER
cial and industrial strife and consider the
welfare of human beings.
OUR HUMAN FOUNDATION.
Every nation has fourished only when
| the physical and mental faculties Of It's
| people We're developed and preserved to
the fullest extent. Perfection OF mind
! and body was the principle that governed
the ancient Greeks. To attain perfection
of mind and body was the aim of the
Romans when the Roman republic was at
its height
If We are to prosper and progress as a
| people, we must look to the protection
and perfection Of the Individual. We have
|
| to work. Why not use them?
| Heretofore. Legislatures have been
working overtime In the giving away of
| natural resources and franchises, and the
enactment of laws to protect rights in
| property. 1t Is only recently that the
idea has crept into our life, both national
and State, that, after all, all the wealth
which We have in the country is as moth
| n "a %
| our existence as a nation-the protection
Of the lives, liberty and happiness OF the
people,
MOST OF US ARE WORKERS"
II we do not havo better opportunities
for our workers, safer conditions under
| which they shall live better educational
| opportunities, and IL the humane note is
| not struck in our legislat ton. then. indeed,
| our prosperity turns to ashes, After all
| Is said. most of us are workers The
| safety of the workers, then is the safety
of us all. How best to secure that safety
in employment Is the great problem that
is strictly up to us'-up to all of us
Since we have become the greatest in
dustrial nation OF the world, our courts
and our Legislatures have struggled with
the old common law doctrines OF ''assump-
lion of risk" "contributory negligence
and the "fellow-servant rule'-doctrnes
borrowed from the dim past. Through
the recognition of these principles, the
hazards of industry" have been borne
by the employed For some few years
thoughtful men have struggled with the
elimination of these archaic rules and
| he fixing of responsibility for Industrial
| locidents and industrial disease where II
rightly belongs-upon the Industry itself.

forces. According to the report Col
onel Dorantes is in retreat.

ais We're engaged in the battle. The
loss on both sides is reported to have

lasted twelve hours
In spite of the fact he might be fired
on by the federal troops, Charles K.
Hamilton flew across the border into
Mexico and made the first aerOplane
reconnaissance ever attempted in time
of war.
Rising from the aviation ground on
the American side of the river, Hamil-
ton in a biplane crossed directly over
the Mexican custom house. circled over
the defenses of JuareZ and returned
to the American side of the river.
Garros in his monoplane left the
ground shortly after Hamilton and
also crossed the river, though his flight
did not cover as much territory as
did Hamilton's.
Hamilton was allowed to make the
flight by the American officers in
charge of the border parole on con-
dition that he would divulge no in
formation he might inquire in his
flight. When he brought his machine
to the ground he declared, there
seems to be quite an army in Juarez."
Abram Gonzales, provisional gov
ernor of Chihuahua under the insur-
recto government, left Ell PasO and
joined the board of strategy in the
field at Saragosa, which is about twen-
ty miles southeast of here in the state
of chihuahua.
The insurrectos have withdrawn to
the south of Juarez from the position
they have held west of town and there
Is reason to believe that they are pre-
pairing to fight Gen. Navarro when he
ments for JuareZ He is said to be
still near the station of Apumada at
San Jose ranch, where he has en-
camped his troops for water, while he
makes repairs to the railroad.
OroZco's insurrectos are camped near
Samalyuca, about thirty-two miles
south of Juarez, with small detach-
ments south, east and west of town.
There is little, if any, water between
San Jose ranch, where Navarro's army
is encamped, and Samalyuca, where
Orozco is located, and the insurrectos
must wait for Navarro to come the
distance of forty or fifty miles before
q fight.
