ity bureaus to the contrary not

ports struggling detachments of
the great army of the unemploy-
ed in that vicinity. twenty-five or
thirty of whom stopped in Park
er for a handout recently. "They
were mostly young fellows with
out the hobo appearance, and
claimed to be on their way to the
Oklahoma wheat fields" Doubt
less they had gotten into touch
with the government labor en-
ployment bureau, organized by
order of President Wilson to find
employment for men who had
formerly worked in industries
closed down by Democratic hard
times. This is the bureau that
denies that any appreciable am
cunt of unemployment exists at
the same time that it seeks to
put men in touch with jobs in
the furthermost corners of the
country, mo transportation ad-
vanced."

After getting into power on 3
promise to reduce the high cost
of living, the Democratic admin
istration finds itself forced to
publish statistics it has collected
proving that retail prices in 1914
were, on an average, 2 per cent
higher than in 1913. Everybody
knew that prices were higher
and many people will be ready to
believe that 2 per cent increase
is a low estimate. Even a 2 per
cent increase means much to
those American workmen who
lost their jobs because a Demo
cratic tariff threw our markets
open to the products of workmen
in europe and Asia.

Oregon bankers are trying to
interest farmer boys in pork pro-
duction by leaning them money
on notes, properly secured, the
money to be invested in good
breeding hogs. The plan is an
excellent one, not only for the
farmer, but for the banker as
well. But while getting the far
mer boy interested, wouldn't it
be a good idea to put him next"
to all the facts in which All Am

a fact. would it not be best to be
perfectly frank and tell the boy
that in July. 1918, when a Re-
publican tariff was in force, no
hams or bacon were imported in
to this country, but in July. 1914,
after the protective tariff had
been removed, there were impor-
tations to the amount of 1885,
871 pounds? That was for only
one month. It was a peace month.
The European war has temporar-
lily changed the situation to some
extent, but the boy should be
told that the war will not last al
ways and that ultimately he must

colt, or any other young animal,
that is not kept growing is very
likely never to become as large

The feed should be nutritious aud

feeds is fresh. pasture grass.
This should be supplemented
with oilmeal. corn, oats, bran and

THE COLORADO PLAN.
Difference Between Rockefeller Idea
and Trade Unions.

Difference Between Rockefeller Idea
and Trade Unions.
Mr.. Rockefeler's plan is significant.
In his alleged collective bargaining"
plan he yields more than any other
employer hostile to the trade union
movement.
He says he acknowledges the prin-
ciple of collective bargaining and to
enforce his conception of this theory
creates a union and evolves a COM
prehensive plan that, the press states,
is financed by the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company We are told these
workers will be permitted to pre-
sent their grievances.
Organized workers present their
grievances through the power of their
economic organization They enforce
their right to have a voice in the dis
posal of their labor power
Mr.. Rockefeller's plan provides that
workers viii be permitted" to present
grievances. If one dissects this theory
he sees that the power that permits"
can also withdraw any time it elects.
Herein IS the fundamental difference
between the Rockefeller plan and that
Of trade unions. One develops inde-
pendence; the other relies on the gra-
ciousness and good will of the employ
er. There can be no compromise be-
tween the two theories, for if the
workingmen are to be really free their
right to regulate their own lives must
be acknowledged.
Mr. Rockefeller's welfare plan con
tains nothing new. 1t is only a repeti-
ton of efforts made by employers to
keep their workmen satisfied.
am sure that time win demonstrate
that the plan prepared by Rockefeller
for his employees in Colorado will
prove full cousin to the other schemes
of like character inaugurated for the
sole purpose Of preventing organiza-
ton of employees that will enable
them to secure improved conditions

New York City Laborers Cannot Earn

DR.. Scott Nearing. former assistant
professor Of economics at the Wharton
school, University of Pennsylvania, in
a recent address at Carnegie hall, New
York city, said that the controllers of
industries in the United States would
never make a decent living possible for
their employees.
THE only thing that can give de-
cent living wage to the workingman
is the force of public opinion, and the
only place whore we can make public
opinion is in the one institution the
people the public school, he said.
IF we can keep the public school ef-
fcient we have a ready means Of shap-
ing public opinion, but if we cannot

established that a man could not sup

built at such price,"

WHEN THE BLOOD IS PURE.
Then Disease Germs Are Rarely Able
TO Infect Our Tissues.

TO Infect AsQT ISSUES
The popular notion that the prompt
healing of a cut or other wound is an
evidence of purity Of blood has sound
scientific basis. When the skin is bro
ken germs in large or small numbers
are thereby admitted to the sacred pre-
cincts of the tissues from which they
are ordinarily excluded by the dense
structure of the skin. When the tissues
are maintained in a healthy state by
pure and vigorous blood the few germs
which enter are quickly destroyed, SO
that the formation of pus, or so called
suppuration. does not occur, but when
the blood is not pure, so that the serum
and the cells are not able to make the
necessary active defense, the germs
grow and develop, suppuration occurs
and the wound, If large may require a
long time to heal
We might represent this by picturing
in our mind a glass globe filled with
water and fishes and other small crea-
lures swimming about in it. Now i'm
agine that indigo, ink or coloring mat
ter of some other sort is dropped into
the water 1t will Immediately become
tinged and if the coloring matter is OF
a poisonous character the fishes will
soon show uneasiness and unless re
heved by a replacement of the impure
water by a fresh supply will soon die
This is just the condition of the living
cells of the body when bathed in i'm
pure blood. The stomach cells which
secrete the gastric juice, the muscle
cells which contract, the liver cells
which make bile, the brain cells which
think-every one is definitely and seri-
ously injured by the impurities brought
in contact with It. Impure blood, then
must be regarded as the foundation OF
