How About the Future?

We are made to wonder what
the new board of trustees that
was elected to take charge of
our city Schools last Saturday
will do. Will they go forward,
or will they go backward by not
doing anything? No, we say no,
these men we believe will build
a new school building and put
it out where it can be seen, they
will make a monument to this
city, and leave something that
make their memory green, when
they shall have gone to that
country from whose bourne no
traveller has ever returned.
This city needs more than any
other thing a school building
that is in keeping with the
times, and we believe, knowing
these gentlemen as we do, that
there will be something doing,
and that soon.

Livestock increases
on National Forests

Figures showing the number OF
livestock for which the secretary OF
agriculture has authorized grazing
permits tor the ranges on the 100
national forests during the year
1914 have lust been made public
Nearly IL million animals can be
grazed, including nearly > million
head OF cattle and horses, nearly 9
million head of sheep and goats, and
about 60 thousand hogs. This
means an increase for the current
wear of about 3S thousand more
cattle and horses, and 3+7 thousand
more sheep and goats, although the
gross area OF the national forests Al
the beginning OF 1914 is almost a
million acres less than at the begin
ming of 1913.
During 1913, according to the re-
ports just compiled, more than p
thousand stockmen paid the govern
ment for grazing permits on the
national forests.
For several years past the carry
ing capacity OF the national forest
ranges has been slowly rising, which
forest officers say, indicates an i'm
provement in general grazing condi
tions and a better utilization OF the
forage resources. They claim that
this is due mainly TO the enforcement
OF better methods of distributing
and handling stock.
On the lands recently acquired by
the federal government within the
Appalachian region OF the east, reg
ulated grazing has been undertaken
this year on six distinct areas. The
local stock owners who had pre-,
viously used the land under lease
from the former owners have readily
accepted the change in ownership
and appear to be favorably impress
ed with the methods employed by
the forest service for grazing pur-
poses. While the number of all ami.
mails authorized to Craze upon these
southern Appalachian forests is not
large. it is the belief of the forest
officers in charge OF them that under
careful supervision the lands will
support more stock than they have
in the past and that there will be
considerable improvement in the
individual animals. with constant
jncress, IN leat production.

KNAB TRICKS TO DEFEAT LABOR ARE NOT
MENTIONED IN NEWSPAPERS

LABOR through It's TOOL, hnaD, the res
taurant man, that can scarcely be
equaled, but the issue is a silent one.
Before Knab hired Dudley Taylor,
lawyer for the Employers Associa-
ton, he appealed to the courts to
throw their weight with the capital
lists against labor and stop the silent
picketing of the girls whose places
he had filed with strikebreakers
when he decided to help the Restau-
rant Keepers Association by fight
ing organized mattresses.
The courts, however, vacillated,
Some judges listened to the plea of
capital and issued far-reaching in
functions. Other judges realizing
that such injunctions were against
the ruling of the supreme court de-
MED the appeals of capital.
And thus the situation stood when
Taylor entered. This is not Taylor's
first fight in the interest of capital
against labor. He might be said to
be skilled in that sort of fighting.
And thereupon the situation de-
Veloped. Girls who were strikebreak-
ers were placed on the streets to hui
initiate the union pickets, and each
day added to their intolerable insults.
The first day they carried placards,
the next day balloons, the next day
toy nannygoats.
They walked on the heels of the
girls whose jobs they had taken, they
pushed their shoulders, they squeak
ed the toys in their ears.
This would have merely amused
the public, though 1 know that it
helped disgust them, but Knab went
further. He put notices in his win
dow calculated to draw crowds about
the street. r..
Then the police stepped in to help
capital. The first day or so they kept
the crowds moving. Then they be-
gan to make arrests of the pickets,

If it is merely to stick out its tongue
or harangue on the street corner,
which is just as futile, how quickly
the newspapers carry scare lines of
the outrage?
When the mourning" squad pick
eted the New York offices of the oc-
topus headed by John D. Rockefel-
Ter, the richest man in the United
States, and the man whose name is
synonymous with golf and the muir
der of women and children in Color
ado, the front pages Of all the papers
shrieked their tidings of this impu-
dence.
When labor and it's friends went to
Tarrytown to try and dig Rockefeller
out of his hiding place and tell him
what they thought of him, again
there were scareheads on the front
page, and when the "agitators'' we're
locked up the scareheads were en-
phasized with photographs of the i'm
pudent.
When four men were killed by
bomb explosion in a tenement in
New York city the newspapers imme-
ldiately gave God the credit of being
the Nemesis, for they intimated that
the men lost their lives while prepar-
ing a bomb to use on the same ''rich-
est man in the United States"
though, as a matter of. fact, the real
secret of that bomb murder is not
known.
And, of course, all this is as it
should be. 1t is sheer impudence for
labor to do other than cringe in the
presence of capital.
When capital, however, unites to
suppress labor, regardless of how
low, how vile may be its tactics, moth
ing is said about them. That sort of
thing isn't news" you know.

Miss Daisy Belle Smith, as Alice,

Mr.. Roosevelt Praises Wild Life
Pictures.

Col. Theodore Roosevelt ap.
peared at the Playhouse in Forty
eighth street yesterday afternoon
to introduce the extraordinary
nature pictures gathered by Mr..
Cherry Kearton OF London. The
Colonel said it was easy to stake"
nature pictures, and he assured
the audience that all of Mr.. Kear-
toms camera shots were genuine.
He was with him in Africa and re-
called that when the cowboy
"roper" was rigging arhinocerous
into range of the camera the ar
fist rebuked him severely for
running the beast into the ma
chine.
He also announced that Mr..
Kearton and James Barnes were
about to start for South Africa to
walk across the lower end of the
continent and "get" a gorilla.
"I'm interested in that gorilla, :"
observed the Colonel grimly.
The pictures shown were of wide
range, from the buffalo and bears
in Yellowstone Park to the spear
ing of a lion in Africa. Some
scenes in Borneo were marvellous,
particularly one of a python in
action. The turning of a cater
pillar into chrysalis was another
strange spectacle caught by the
camera.-N. Y. World.
This extraordinary feature will
be shown at the Opera House on

Mayor Lauve has been requested
by the Hon. A. B. Fletcher, Pre-.
sident of the Fourth American
Road Congress and State High
way Engineer of California, to
name three delegates to attend the
sessions of the Congress at At
lanta, Georgia, during the week
of November 9th. Forty-seven
great organizations are taking
part in the Congress under the
leadership of the American High.
way Association and the American
Automobile Association. In his
letter to the Mayor, President
Fletcher calls attention to the
fact that practically every state
highway commissioner will be
present and take part in discuss.
ing the important problems of
road construction and mainten.
ance, and that some of the fore
most men ir public life will de-
vote their attention to the great
question of Federal Aid to road
Improvement, in an endeavor to
work out a policy which may be
submitted to the Congress of the
United States with the support of
organized road movement of
Americans. An important move
bearing upon state legislation
will be made at the session to be
held under the auspices OF the
American Bar Association, at
which al int committee, appoint
ed at the 1918 Congress, viii re-
port progress in compilation aud
suggested revision of state road
laws. The creation of a commits
sion participated in by each state
to work out a revision of the road
laws will be urged. The National
Civil Service Reform League will
hold an exceedingly important
session on the merit system in
road administration. President
Fletcher calls attention to the ex-
hibits to be made by the United
States Government, the States,
and more than a hundred of the
leading manufacturers at the Con.
gress, which will illustrate every
known method, material and
equipment for road construction
and maintenance. He urges that
the city and county be o&cially
