We have Just received very neat communication

~ Mr. John d. Rockefeller, jr., who desires us to
<hor0ughly familiarize ourselves and our readers
With the accomplishments Of the Rockefeller Found

y depression have created great want at home
Ghere are $4,000 idle men in New York city, the

Mr.. Rockefeller consumes two pages of his COM
munication in impressng upon us that 'next in inn
portance to the Belgian relief work. has been the
establishment of department for the investigation
Of industrial relations under direction of an expert
imported from Canada
It is altogether pleasing communication The
fact that the Begians are being fed and the Malay
states relieved of hookworms warns the heart and
there's the blessed hope that Canadian investigation

culling or Garrison

1t a democratic congress ever dares to pass that
Shields bill for granting water-powers on navgable
streams democratic president ought to veto it. and
Il the latter fails the people, the democratic party
ought to go hang itself, in contempt of itself.
This bill was virtually concocted by the lobby that
lives In Washington for the business of looting the
Mater-power sites. 1t is foolishly recommended by
Secretary Garrison over whose eyes the lobby's at
otrney pulled the wool-goats wool-but Garrison S
approval isn't worth snort in cyclone beside the
strong protest made by known friends of honest con-
servation.
It the democracy favors giving the power trust
right to condemn any land public or private, it is
time that the country knew it. If the democracy
favors paying power trust the unearned increment
on land taken back by the government after 81
years Of franchise and probably another so of tga
tion it is time that the people clearly understood
that such is the Wilson idea of conservation of pub
lie resources.
It was for monkeying with fellows with designs
on national property that Ballinger got run out.
President Wilson seems to have member of his
cabinet who is being monkeyed with by similar
gang of interests The nation will not stand for
any fooling with it's property and there ought to be
revolution before the nation consents to have public
or private land confscated by what is salubriously
called individual initiative new name for hog

Say, fellows, whether you'v,
got one good sled, or more, OF
none. you don't want to miss
making this one.
It's corker for coasting
especially on soft snow; it will
quickly put a hill in great condi.
ton for other kinds of coasting
1t will run where another SLED
cannot be used.
And IL you have a dog, you can
use 1t as regular arctic dogsled
provided you can interest the
dog In the game. It's surprising
however, how easy It is to teach
certain dogs to pull the sled.
