Franklin X. Lane.

Twenty years ago Franklin X. Lane,
secretary of the interior in the Presi-
dents cabinet, who is in North Yaki-
ina today, was young working news
paper man in the town of Tacoma He
attended faithfully to his duties, got
out a good newspaper and took an in
terest in public affairs. Today he is
one of the men who are conducting
the business of the greatest nation in
the world for it's people. He is the
trusted counselor of the President and
one of the national leaders of his
party. He has been intrusted with the
solution of some of the most difficult
and delicate questions of state which
have been before his fellow citizens
in recent years. There is feeling
that he is going to succeed. 1t grows
out Of the fact that he has made good
on every task he has undertaken here
tofore. 1t is strengthened by the fact
that wherever he goes he inspires re-
.spect and confidence among those
whom he meets.
The rise of Frank Lane to one of
the most important posts under our
government ought to be an inspiration
for every young man who sees him to-
day He has never advanced by a pull.
He has worked for all that has come
to him, and has honestly earned 1t.
Ever since his career has been under
the observation of this newspaper he
has made it point to know his bust
ness, and when dealing with public
and political affairs he has always
sought to be right. AS newspaper
man his paper had influence wherever
It was read. Its patrons knew he was
on the square. AS public man he was
has always aimed high. He never has
resorted to any Of the arts of the dem
agogue. AS member of the inter.
state commerce commission his work
won the approval Of the best thinkers
on railroad problems, and he con
stantly exerted himself to enlarge the
prestige and power Of this most i'm
portant body. He never has sought
to advance himself. His position in
the cabinet came to him as the result
of letter he wrote the president-elect
a few months ago on behalf of friend
setting out the kind of man who ought
to be secretary of the interior. Mr.
Wilson thought so much of the letter
that he offered the place to the writer
instead of the friend.
With all of his honors Mr. Lane has
remained the same unassuming citi
zen that he was while he was one OF
"the boys" at Tacoma. He Is inter
ested in everything and everybody. He
is anxious to be helpful and useful. He
looks around for his old friends and
enjoys making new ones.
Nobody who ever knew Mr.. Lane is
sorry that he has risen SO high, and
the indications are that nobody Is go
ing to be sorry.-Yakima Republic
(Rep).

Several OF Western Canada news.
papers coming to hand during the
last part Of the year 1912 contained
items of news sGch as the following,
speaking Of the Christmas work in

Other years have been heavy and
the employees have had plenty Of op-
~portunity OF learning what It was to
work overtime, but the past has had
nothing equal to the present Forty
extra men have been employed lin
Winnipeg), and mail trains have been
run special. The increase in the mail
this year has been due to the enor-
nous influx of people into Western
Canada during the season, and also
the general prosperity which the
prairie provinces have enjoyed. To
the latter cause has been due the
heavy increase in the number OF par
cells which have been shipped to the
old country and Eastern Canada"
The above extract taken from q
Winnipeg paper gives a fair idea Of
the great work, that the Canadian
postofices have had all through the
western prairies. During the past
year hundreds or e postotfices were
established, many OF them at remote
points from the railway, but all forced
upon the country on account OF the
new settlements that have taken
place during the year. 1t is said Of
the Canadian government that In its
immigration and settlement policy
there Is nothing left undone to take
care Of the people and their welfare,
whether It be In the new town along
a new line of railway or In the re-
hottest hamlet. This solicitude and
care are not confined to the postof-
fee, but with every branch that has
to do with organizing new districts,
Bridges have been built, roads con-
structed, the district. policed, and a
dozen other things have to be done
