M0NTANA'S ACTIVE GOVERNOR

Samuel v. Stewart. governor Of
Montana. Is one of the group OF west.
ern chief executives, lihe Spry OF Utah,
who aggressively oppose the encroach.
ment OF federal upon state rights in
the matter OF conservation. The con.
stitution Of Montana explicitly seeks
to aid in the development OF the
natural resources of the state by en-.
couraging capital to make use of the
forests and streams and by safeguard.
ing interests thus created.
Governor Stewart is a man Of In.
itiative and action, as was abundantly
proved In the labor riots at Butte,
when the !. w. w. were dynamiting
shops and halls In their contests with
employers. While the congressional
delegation In Washington was fran.
tically trying to induce the president
to send federal troops to Quell the
riots-a body Of soldiers was sent as

calmly announced that he had no use
for federal trOODs. that the state could

L0ND0N'S DEFENDER

When Sir Percy Scott was appoint.

edged that he was up against hard
proposition-the guarding of the me.

everyone over there had such conf.

of the October raid of the kaiser's
airships was really great surprise.
The citizens of London held indigna.
ton meetings, and the press asked
loudly what he intended to do and
why he didn't do It, Sir Percy's sup.

that he had something up his sleeve.
Admiral Scott-he has had that
rank for some time-is a scientist and

sALANDRA, WAR PREMIER

Politics took a peculiar turn in
elevating Antonio Salandra to world.
wide prominence as the war party
premier Of Italy. A less bellicose man
and one more conservative by nature
would be difficult to find among con.
temporary Italian statesmen.
Salandra Is almost as fair an Illus.
tration Of the scholar in politics as
President Wilson. His interests are
primarily those Of the student. His
past activities have been as much
academic as political. He Is simple.
modest and domestic In his personal
tastes. Nevertheless It Is this profes.
sor of public law in the University Of
Rome who is today the idol of the 1tal.
ian populace, to whom the idea OF war
with Austria IL SO dear.
Salandra was born at Troia in
Foggia on August 81, 1853. Naturally
a student he qualified for the degree
OF bachelor OF laws at the University
Of Naples when he was twenty-five. He

In the opinion Of many, one result
Of the war will be an increased and
stupendous demand on America for
foodstuffs, and advocates Of the back

II that will not bring about the return
Of many thousands of men from the
city to the farm.
Commonly two causes are assigned
for the abandoned farm. One Is the
loneliness Of farm life and the lack Of
opportunity for wholesome recreation.
The other is that the soil, through gen.
erations Of cropping, has become worn
out.
Both theories are wrong, accord.
