A PROSECUTORS STOVE.

For muleback transportation to a
permanent camp site the following
adoption of household wash boiler
proved so successful that others might
find it of similar use.
camp was to be established for
the summer in region that was diff
ficult to pack material into. A Sec
tionalized iron stove was unavailable,
and the single piece iron stoves in
stock at the QUILTING point were too
cumbersome and heavy. An ordinary
tin wash boiler, elliptical in shape,
was bought, together with one 2-foot
length or 6-inch stovepipe and one
Quarter-bend, The pipe and bend
were packed with provisions and then
put inside the boiler, which was filed
with stores and given a place on the
pack saddle.
Upon arrival at the camp site the
boiler was unpacked and a 6-inch
diameter hole was cut in the bottom
Of one end, the sections being bent at
right angles to the surface to admit
the quarter bend Two lid holes were
cut in the bottom of the boiler, and
rectangular hole was cut in the other
end. The boiler was then set bottom
side up on a rock and the smoke pipe
wired in place. Two lids were made
of flattened tomato tins and a front
door was made from the original lid
of the boiler. Wood was used for
fuel This stove worked satisfactorily
for the camp cooking for four men
and lasted out the summer without
burning through.

TOO MANY MASTERS.
Railroads Say Forty Mine on Forty
Eight Too Many.

Michigan passed Americas first
general railroad law in 1848. Illinois
passed similar law in 1S49 and Ohio
followed suit in 1854. These were
practically the beginnings of our pres
ent system at railroad regulation, and
in those early days restraint was not
remotely considered. says Francis H.
Sisson in his booklet Under Forty
nine Masters"
The latitude given the railroads en-
abled them to develop rapidly and to
provide q foundation for what has
since become the worlds greatest
transportation system. Mr.. Sisson
points out that the legislative liberal
ity of the early days has vanished and
has yielded place to most confus-
ing multifaGious, unscientific and vex-
atoms system of railroad laws and
regulation.
With congress and 4S states at
tempting to regulate our railroads, all
acting Independently and without CO.
operation, confusion and uncertainty
follow. 1t is the old story, says he, of
too many cooks"
In 1909 in Al states, 664 new laws
affecting railroads were enacted. In
1918, 230 additional measures against
railroads were placed upon the stat
ute books of the several states And
between 1912 and 1916 out of 1000 bills
relating to railroads introduced into
congress and our several states, 44O
became law. Mr., Sisson thinks that
much of this legislation is useless,
burdenome and costly.
He points out that in the fircal year,
1914, 1875 railroads reported total ex-
pense of almost $29,0O0,00O in compli-
ance with legislation affecting opera
ton. According to this writer 10
states assert their right to control
bend and stock issues of railroads
within their territories, an assumption
which has tended to impair railroad
credit.
in case of a railroad traversing
several states" he says, "the consent
Of each being necessary to a proposed
issue of securities, many things may
happen. One state may withhold its
consent until the delay so occasloned
defeats the project. All states may
approve 1t but one, and that one slay
the project by its refusal. All states
but one may consent, and that one in
sist that some Of the proceeds be
spent within its own borders, although
perhaps, not needed there and actually
needed in some other state"
Oonly congress, says Mr. Sisson,
should regulate so momentous an is
sue. through its deputy. the interstate
commerce commission. Similarly,
owing to the preponderating bulk of
railroad traffic which Is interstate in
Enthusiastically IS per cent, he thinks
that the federal government, through
the interstate commerce commission,
should assume full control Of all our
railroads. Our present system of di-
vided authority leads to waste, dis
elimination, duplication and litigation.
Under a single constructive auth
GRITTY, with a policy of absolute equal
ity and fairness, railroad development
should progress amazingly. 1t will be
independence day for railroads when
the rule of their 40 masters gives way
to that designed for them by the con-
stitution essential for the commerce OF
the country, and demanded for their
salvation"

mune from criticism. No one is. But
so long as he is our President and by
virtue of the Constitution makes g
demand in the name of and for the
American people, it becomes our I'M
qualified duty to uphold that demand
That is the lesson, of patriotism you
men on each side of the great Civil
War have taught us, and by it we
should be governed. We must be big
enough to rise higher than party in
dealing with such matters.
To me the gift of prophecy has moi
been accorded. But every day we
seem to come nearer and nearer to a
clash with our neighbor Republic tc
the South. Admiral Dewey, eighteen
years ago, said that the Filipinos
were more capable of self government
than the Mexicans. He seems to have
known what he was talking about
With several years of anarchy in that
country and with the inability of any
Mexican leader to handle the situa-
ton, it seems that we will, sooner OF
later, have to save the Mexicans from
themselves.
Regardless of what will happen ir
the future, we should be thankful
that we have escaped thus far the
maelstrom of war, and every honest
effort of President Wilson to avert
war should be and is applauded and
commended.
Men of the Grand Army, time and
the sword have thinned your ranks
and the ranks Of your opponents. Lin
coin and Grant, Sherman and Sheri-
dan, jackson and Lee and johnson
and Johnston are gone. Fondly dc
we hope and fervently do we pray
that the country shall not again need
the services Of similar great men
Your own experiences and our his
tory teach US, however, that if it shall
be necessary to again develop like
great military characters, the mater
ial for their production will be forth
coming.
In closing let me thank you for this
opportunity Of addressing you, and lei
me express what we know is YOU
fondest hope and desire, and that is
that there shall soon come a still
small voice banishing war from the
world and commanding throughout
the ages, "Peace on earth and gooG
viii toward men," thank you.
