Prevents Monopoly.

Senator Mcintosh said section 2
would prevent a monopoly OF the pro-
duction Of oil, and as q matter Of
public policy the bill ought to be
passed.
Senator Davidson, sponsor for the
bill, said that the section In question
was inserted I'm the bill for the pur-
pose of preventing the pipe lines from
making an enormous profit at the
expense of the producer.
Thomas Ended IL.
Senator Thomas ended the discus
sion by declaring that the bill had
been thoroughly threshed out in COM
mittee, bore the approval Of oil men,
and no successful amendment to It
could be proposed. He moved that the
committee rise and report the bin for
passage, and his motion prevailed.

A concrete swimming tank is one
of the latest additions to the modern
ranch. In the Southwest, streams
providing the swimming holes SO
much enjoyed by the farmers boys of
the East are few and unreliable, be-
ing apt to run dry at the very time
when swimming is most desirable.
A number of western ranches have
equipped tanks which are filed with
water supplied by irrigation The
water is pumped into the tank fresh
each day and is drawn OFF into the
bitches as needed for the different
fields.
a tank of this kind on large
ranch near Tucson, Ariz., is the scene
of frequent merry parEiss of young
people who motor out for an evening
swim. It's depth at one end is only
three feet for the beIsefit of the timid
bather. while at the o\ser end twelve
feet of water gives the skilled SWIM
mer chance to exercise his accom-
plishment. Seats are provided for
spectators, and electric light is an
excellent substitute for the daylight
which would be too hot to make the
sport enjoyable. The value of hav-
in. this large body of water on hand
as fire protection is considered
equivalent to its cost.

One of our greatest artillery com
manders asserts that the gunners who
with apparently deadly accuracy
saved the day at Gettysburg could not
come within mile of hitting their
objective with one of the great NOR
tars or rifles now bcing used on the
European battlefelds, and as prac-
tically all charges are made under
the protection of artillery, the danger
to our own forces OF putting such
weapons in the hands of incompetent
gunners must be obvious.
And yet today, the coast artillery
of the United States has just half the
number of men necessary to man it's
defenses and in the event OF war
would be compelled to depend on fifty
per cent of raw recruits.

of those short cannon of her time.
She was concealed In the brush at
one end of the stockade which was
the defense of the town. Her pres
ence was unknown until the attack
,inf forces massed themselves against
this stockade. Then she belched
forth her yolly of iron which ripped
lengthways down the ranks of the
enemy and accomplished wonderful
results. Betsy and the one hundred
men defeated and drove OF the at

hero worshippers follow their idols

that no more statistics Will be Issued

troll that tell a story hostile 70 the
fulfllment of Democratic promises and

shows that fewer men are employed,

FREMONT.

In Fremont, o., the Fourth of July
celebration comes on August 2. This
latter date is the anniversary which
moves the Fremonter to the demon
stration of frenzy of patriotic zeal.
For something happened on an
August 2, which, from the standpoint
of Fremont, overshadows all other
events.
Fremont is located on height. al
most bluff, overlooking the sinuous
Sandusky river, which here finds its
head of navigation. 1t is an ancient
town, from the Ohio standpoint, for
it has stood here for more tslan a
hundred years. The men who founded
it came from Pennsylvania and
brought with them a peculiar type
of architecture that is to be seen only
with her horns cut OFF.
The houses they built were of red
brick, as were those they left in
Pennsylvania. But 1t is the roof that
is peculiar. It is roof without
caves. The edge of it is on a line
with the edge of the outer wall. 1t
gives peculiar impression to the
observer, who is unfamiliar with
these houses OF the Pennsylvania
Dutch-an impression such as one
would experience upon meeting a
formerly bearded friend who had
shaved, or Bossy of the barnyard
with her horns cut og.
The occasion of the demonstration
of August 2, the controlling in
duence in the town, is a sort OF
Thermopylae that was fought by the
early settlers during the war of 1872.

Party is Incompetent.

That the Democratic party is in
competent is the statement made by
Senator John Sharp Williams, OF
Mississippi, in an address to the Uni
ted States Senate.
"The same, dear, old foolish Demo
cratic party is going through the same
game that it can be generally trusted
to go through" said senator Williams
to his Democratic colleagues. you
cannot govern the country. You are
Some measure of that incompetency
has been referred to hitherto in stories
pointing out specific errors in the tar
iff bill due to inexcusable laundering.
Mistakes in other laws have been dis
Hcussed in more recent articles.e A
brief resume of these mistakes Is CIV
en- herewith, to be followed later by
Instances of other faulty Democratic
legislation.
No. s. The provision enacted by the
Democratic Congress to build up the
American merchant marine utterly
failed to achieve its purpose, and con-
ferred the proposed benefit instead
upon competing vessels of other coun-
tries, giving to foreigners the profits
from high freight rates according to
the decision of the court of customs
appeals in the five per cent rebate
case.
No g. The Democratic Congress
blundered in enacting the law to pro-
vide greater safety and comfort at sea
for passengers and seamen by naming
two conflicting dates for the time it
should take effect.
No. TO- 1.-THE "war tax" law was in
accurately drawn; was not based upon
correct estimates and failed to provide
the money needed; necessitated ex-
pensive litigation; and adequate prep
aration for its enforcement was not
made, causing great delay, annoyance
and confusion.
No. II. The executive branch of the
Democratic administration is at war
with the legislative branch, and has
asked the supreme court to declare
imperative the law allowing a five per
cent reduction in the tariff on goods
imported in American bottoms.
No. II. The most vital error a leg
islatiye body can make was incorpor-
ated in the war tax" law. Congress
having given two conflicting dates as
to the time Schedule B should begin
to operate.
No. 10. Congress invited litigation
over Schedule B of the war tax" law
by falling to clearly express the mean
ing of the provision to tax Cosmetics, 8
and the matter is now in the courts.
No. IA. Thousands of dollars col
lected from trust companies under the
war tax" law may have to be refund
ed because Congress failed to make
clear whether or not they are subject
to the taxa question that has been
taken to the courts for determination.

Unfortunately. however, a recon-
1nendation to Congress. even when il
enjoys the belated approval OF the
president, is far from the accomplish
ment of legislation. 1t will be re
called that Mr.. Garrison's very ability
antagonized and alienated the mem
bers OF his party in the last Congress
and that the military committees OF
the two houses rejected his practically
every recommendation and passed con
siderable legislation which he dfsap-
proved. It will also be recalled that
1t was the influence OF the president
himself which defeated the passage OF
Representative Gardeners resolution
creating a commission empowered to
investigate the military condition OF
the nation ard which, 1t was hoped
would point the way to remedyine
many abuses and defects, some OF
which had been of long standing.
