The labor situation Is described by the State Bureau of EMPLOYMENT
at Albany is becoming almost critical. Jobs continue to develop faster
than the labor to supply them. Things are rushing in the building trades.
The call for factory workers is very heavy" and especially for women
workers. Stenographcrs, office boys and general labor are simply not to
be had in anything like the quantity demanded, while the plight of the
housewife is such as to excite pity. Her position is "desperate' in being
unable often to get help at SO to So a week with keep.
Perhaps the res of the situation may be left to take care of ITSELF
but this desperate case of the housewife demands attention. 1t is Just
another crisis which has fallen upon the country under Wilson" and
because Of Wilson, and nothing is being done about it. We arr facing it
without policy. plan, purpose o. preparation. That's what the colonel
would say, and the colonel knows. If there is a policy it is,t the ostrich
policy. The housemaid may be within the law in being so scarce and
hgh-priced, but what does that matter n face of the desperate position
of the housewife?
Nationwide votesf for wonen by constitutional amendment already
has a recognized place in the campaign of anything to beat Wilson. But

WON'T FOLLOW COLONEL

The Democratic National committee has made public a copy of a let
ter ser to Colonel Theodore Roosevelt by Charles D. Elliott, formerly
adjutant general of West Virginia, a pioneer Progressive, and a delegate
to the Progressive National convention last June, in which he told>t the
colonel he could not follow him into the Republican party He wrote
in part:
NO one will eve know how hard it was for me to do that which day
after day ny conscience told me should do. After following you all
these years it seemed impossible for me to enroll under another banner
was thoroughly convinced prior to and at the Chicago convention that
Hughes as a real live candidate under cover and therefore a bit of a
hypocrite, and it aroused all that feeling we we're possessed with four
years ago when a the old crowd under control of the Republican
convention and realized that their methods and objects we're UNCHANGED.
Y are asking too much of us to go back to this old crowd. Real
iNng that Hughes "a nominated by the same crowd, he will in nv opin-
ion be controlled by them and the same interests that took Taft uD nto
the mountain. This m crowd will control the delegations in 1920 and
they will play the am old game. 1t is apparent t. M that they have
n o more love for you now than they had four years @ and the only
way SCI to get rid Of them is for those of O friends who differ with
you to clean up the whole gang as they did in 1912"

The attitude of the West in stand
ing staunchly by lis colors as to
federal landlordism, and the
steady battling OF the southern
states against the placing of
heavy restrictions on the devel-
opment of its water powers are
reported to be having their effect.
In the East, according to report,
they are beginning to wonder
whether, after all, there is not
some justification in the protests

seriously the tying up of the

which will prevent rather than

We Need the Tourist
Steamboat Springs Pilot


One of Colorado's best "crops'
is the tourist and it is a resource
that will grow with each year as
roads are improved and more
people are made acquainted with
the attractions OF a summer visit
to the mountains. According to
estimates recently made the
number OF persons from other
parts of the state and country
that have visited Steamboat
Springs as pleasure seekers and
sightseers during the last year
is in excess of 5000, and these
figures are conservative. The
direct result of this might be
figured in dollars and cents, but
in the present summing up only
theadvertising aspect of the mat
ter will be taken into considera-
tion, az the mOmeRtary return
is taken as a matter of course.
Five thousand persons spread
ing the gospel OF health, and re-
newed vigor that follow as a
natural consequence Of a visit to
this locality, means many times
that number will learn of the ad-
vantages this country possesses
over those OF foreign resorts and
gradually the attention of the
pleasure-seeking population OF
the land will be drawn to US.
The result will be that next year
the travel will be larger and it
will continue to increase in cor
responding ratio until scores oi
thousands will each summer visit
this attractive section OF the
state.
