MIS-QUOTING HISTORY

The Washington Times, a Munsey
newspaper, says that the public do
main belongs to the people of the
united States. 1t does not belong to
the states within which il is situated.
1t never did. BY statute law and
historical custom it has always been
administered for the nation at large
by the national government"
Yet the facts of history are direct
ly to the contrary. The public do
main in each of the original 8 states
was retained by them for their own
uses when the Union was formed.
When Verm ont was admitted the fed
eral government set up no claim to
the public domain and the state was
permitted to retain it. The same was
true when Kentucky was admitted,
and also when Tennessee was admit
ted. Texas, On annexation to the
United States and admission to the
Union, retained all of the public do
main for it's own uses and the gov
eminent never took an acre of land
within its borders
Ohio was the first state to be ad-
mitted which was denied the right to
the public lands within it's borders
This denial was because of the fact
that the lands were originally the
property of the state of Virginia,
which had coded them to the general
government, in order that from their
sale the revolutionary war debt
might be eXtinguished. 1t was held
later by the supreme court of the
United States, in the leading case of
Pollard's Lessee VS.. Hagan, that the
United States never acquired any
title to these lands or to any other
lands coded by the original states
and later erected into other states
save as trustee, and that when the
trust was fully executed the remain
ing public lands would become the
property OF the states in which they
were situated, the decision adding
that not until this was done would
the newer states be i'll the Union on
exact constitutional equality with the
original states.
The federal government owns the
public lands merely because the
newer states, as a condition pre-
cedent to admission, were forced to
concede the title. Properly, how
ever, the United States, so far as
public lands are concerned, has
never ceased to be trustee for the
people.--Seattle Observation-Disclosures

a revolver and then, in the heat of
passion, proceeded to use it, only to
regret the rash action when it was
too late. Any maniac into whose
disordered brain flashes the delusion
that he ought to kill someone, can
step into hardware store or pawn
shop, purchase a revolver and then
hunt down his unsuspecting victim.
The revolver might well be defined
as a weapon to facilitate murder.
The fact that a man, not peace
officer, carries revolver is an indi-
cation that he is either a coward or
bully. Such a weapon is of little
or no protection against highway
men, because they nearly always
get the drop" on their victims, and
is more often an invitation to death
than safeguard in case of burg
laries. Peace officers and soldiers
need them in the discharge of their
duties, but other people would be
far better off without them.
The bill will be opposed by the
powerful influence of the men who
make money out of the manufacture
ard sale of firearms and ammuni
ton, just as the substitution of arbi-
tration for war is opposed by the
manufacturers of artillery and the
builders of battle ships, but the world
is growing too enlightened to much
longer endure the burden of misery
and bloodshed, because there is
money in it, for few manufactur-
ers.
Senator Collins bill should be
promptly enacted into law.

Penitentiary Grain Sacks

Applications for prison made jute
bags will be received at the state
penitentiary commencing Monday,
the board of control having appor-
toned 2,247,000 among the coun-
ties. Applications must be accom-
panied by 10 per cent of the value
of the sacks wanted, the price hav-
ing been fixed at cents.
The prison authorities expect a
big rush Monday, as the price is a
cent under the market. The appor-
tionment by counties follows:
Adams, $4,000; Asotin, 10000;
Benton, $4,000; Columbia, $4,000;

unanimously in favor of adopting the
bulk system. But the time for dis
cussion is ended and the time for
action has come. If the farmers
mean business they can bring about
the change in short order, but until
they are prepared to handle grain in
bulk on their farms they need not
expect that the railroads and buyers
VIII handle 1t in bulk after 1t leaves
the farms. The men who expect to
benefit by any change are the men
who must initiate that change, be-
cause other people are not going to
do it for them.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1913-01-24
TIME FOR ACTION

1t is all we'll enough to denounce
the use of grain sacks and pass reso-
lutions in favor of handling grain in
bulk, but talk and resolutions will
not change the system. The bene-
ficiaries of the sack system will have
little cause to worry until the farm
ers prepare to handle bulk grain on
their farms. When they do that, the
buyers, the railroads, the millers and
the exporters will recognize that the
change is at hand and will make
their preparations accordingly. The
individual farm is the source of the
grain supply and any change in the
system of handling the product must
be inaugurated at the source.
The construction of granaries or
the installation of steel tanks by a
few farmers in each community will
do more toward putting an end to
the use Of sacks than any amount OF
talk or any number of resolutions,
because the bulk system can not be
successfully inaugurated until the
farmers have made provisions to en-
force their demands by preparing to
handle the grain in bulk themselves
before they deliver 1t to the ele-
vators.
1t will not cost great deal for
each farmer to install the necessary
equipment for handling his grain
crop in bulk, and the saving in time
and money resulting from the dis
earding of sacks would in a year OF
two equal that cost.
This subject has been thoroughlS
discussed and the farmers are almost

SNOW-BOUND

Unwarmed by any sunset light
The gray dawn darkened into night,
A night made hoary with the swarm
And whirl-dance of the binding
storm,
AS zigzag waving to and fro
Crossed and recrossed the winged
snow:
And ere the early bedtime came
The white drift piled the window
frame,
And through the glass the clothes
line posts
Looked in like tall and sheeted
ghosts,
So all night long the storm roared
on:
The morning broke without sun;
In tiny spherule traced with lines
VI Natures geom etric signs,
In starry flake, and pellicle,
All day the hoary meteor fell;
And, when the second morning
shone,
We looked upon world unknown,
on nothing we could call our own.
Around the glistening wonder bent
The blue walls of the armament,
No cloud above, no earth below
universe of sky and snow!
The old familiar sights of ours
TOOK marvellous shapes; strange
domes and towers
Rose up where sty or corn-crib stood,
vi garden wall, or belt of wood.
A smooth white mound the brush
pile showed,
A fenceless drift what once was
road;
Inc bridal-post an old man sat
With loose-flung coat and high
cooked hat;
Inc well-curb had a Chinese roof;
AND even the long sweep, high
aloof,
IN Its slant splendor, seemed to tell
VI Pisa's leaning miracle.
