day--No Settlement With Union
Declares Manager.

Denver, April 27.--Goy. Elias M. Am
mons Saturday night by wire requested
President Wilson to "send troops into

Chief Justice G. w. Musser of the
state supreme court, A. B. King, asso-
ciate justice, and three others appointed
by the governor left late Saturday for
Trinidad to investigate the strike situa-
ton.
| Gov. Ammons said Saturday:
IL have begun thorough investiga-
ton of the riots which have occurred in
the strike zone within the last week,
and when | learn who is to blame for
them, the guilty ones will be punished.
! intend to see that peace is restored at
once.
1.-THE affairs in the Southern Colorado
coal fields are horrible; they must stop"
Trinidad, Col, April 27.--Peace in the
Colorado coal camps viii continue over
Sunday if orders given by strike leaders
to their followers are obeyed. After a
conference late Saturday between Adj
Gen. John Chase and officers of the
United Mine Workers of America, John
b. Lawson addressed a mass meeting of
strikers here and urged them to abstain
from any acts of violence until con-
ference held in Denver yesterday, in
which state officers and citizens endeav-
ored to effect settlement of the coal
miners strike.
A party carrying Red Cross flag and
representing itself as being authorized
to act for that organization was ordered
under military detention Saturday by
Gen. Chase at the Ludlow military head
quarters and later turned back to Trim
idad.
Gen. Chase explained that he had been
informed by DR.. S. p. Morris, Red Cross
district representative at Denver, that
the party was not authorized to repre-
sent the organization. The party had
gone from Trinidad with the intention
of making further search of the ruins
of the Ludlow tent colony for bodies.
b. J. Matteson. assistant manager of
the Colorado Fuel & Iron company, Sat
urday caused to be posted at the com
pany's mines copies of a telegram from
President J. +. Welborn, declaring as
follows:
"There is absolutely no truth in the
report on the streets of Trinidad that
Mr.. Rockefeller has wired me to settle
with the union. Neither Mr. Rockefel-
Ter nor anyone else has made such re-
quest or suggestion, and the Colorado
Fuel & Iron company will have absolute
ly nothing to do with the United Mine
Workers"

TRYING PRINCETON PLAN.
President Wilson's Ideas Being Expert
mented With at Other Colleges.

"The preceptorial method of instruc-
tion inaugurated by President Wilson at
Princeton university has so amply
proved its value that number of other
institutions have been led to adopt it
wholly or in part" declares DR., S. p.
Capen, specialist in higher education of
the United States bureau of education,
in statement just issued. Bowdoin col
lege is one of the latest converts to the
idea, according to DIR. Capen.
In Bowdoin college the preceptorial
method has been applied to history,
government, and English literature.
Group conferences of five or six students
have replaced quiz" sections in these
subjects. President Hyde finds that the
new plan costs double in money, time,
and labor, but bears fruit four fold in
vitality, responsibility and scholarly am
bition." One of the developments Of the
work at Bowdoin has been a course in
English composition for the best six
writers in college, with six professors to
teach them. President Hyde answers
one of the objections sometimes urged
against the plan by declaring; Sewing
the most vital and costly instruction to
a limited number of those who prove
most competent to profit by it is not
inconsistent with democratic equality of
opportunity freely offered to ALL"
DIR. Capen points out that the only
reason many more colleges do not adopt
the preceptorial plan is the expense in
volved. This plan requires substan-
tial increase in teaching force, and sue
cessful 'preceptors" must be men of
high ability, sound training, and culture.
To attract such men good salaries must
he paid, and Bowdoin proposes to de-
vote requests amounting to 100000 to
the single purpose of raising salaries.

UNITED STATES RANKS
HIGH AMONG
NATIONS

Washington, D. c.. July 3, 1914
In the basic elements Of economic
progress the United States ranks high
among the nations of the world, being
one Of the FIVE countries only which
have an area in excess of 3 million
square miles, and the only nation OF
the western world Except Russia)
having a population of over 100 mil
lion. In the interchange Of products
among its own people it leads the
world, its home trade at the present
time being estimated at nearly 40
billion dollars, or equal to the inter
national exchanges OF the world and
approximately 10 times the value OF
our own foreign trade now valued at
billion dollars.
That our present foreign trade is
far short of the immediate possibili-
| ties of the nation is evident from a
consideration of its area, commerce,
and other economic factors in com
parison with that Of other leading
countries as set forth in comparative
tables published in the Statistical
Abstract of the United States, 1913"
compiled by the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce, Department
of Commerce. Thus the present ex.
port trade of the United States (2H
billion dollars) represents about SIS
per capita. A per capita basis equal
to that of Argentina would raise the
export power of the United States to
billion dollars; and one equal to
that of Belgium would bring its ex-
ports to 10 billion dollars year;
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1914-07-10

The foundations OF this growth are
laid deep in the soil and natural re-
sources of our country and in tbo
character of the people. Thus tbS
American Union, from Is states har
ing 325 thousand square miles and +
million people, has expanded TO AZ
states and the territories of AlasL,
Porto Rico, and Hawaii, with an arsa
Of 32s million square miles and Ina
million people. In the period since
1870 the value of our farm produces
has risen from 2 billion to about n
billion dollars year; the output ~
coal from less than Otto nearly 506
million long tons; copper from l2T
thousand to over II million tons; Mo
iron from 2 to 81 million tons. na
