the growing crops, they break
down or crawl thru fences and
destroy that upon which the
homesteader depends for his liv-
ing. There is no question that
many of the large cattlemeD
have little regard for the rights
OF others. They look upon the
homesteadrr as more or less Of a
trespasser. This attitude must
change or iher. will some OF these

for the cattl-men to begin now
to have more regard for the
rights OF settlers, for under our
system tn. herd law may be
brought up each two wears and
some of these days it will carry.
The coming legislature can do
much to correct the matter by
enacting law throwing greater
safeguards around the home
,teader. Such law has been
offered by the cat tie association,
and with some changes IT should
be satisfactory to all concerned.
The Pilot opposed the passage
OF tn. herd law because we be-
lieved IN the end it would be
detrimental to this section of the
state. ior we look for the time
when every homesteader will be-:
come n cattle owner and take ad-
vantage of the magnificent range

recognize the justice OF the com
plants Of many of the home
Steaders and shall do all in our
power to See that they are cor.

Regarding Range Stock

Steamboat Springs Pilot:
The herd law is decisi 'ely de.
feated, but the vote in its favor,
even here in our own county IN
the heart of the range industry,
shows that there is n very con.
siderable sentiment in its favor.
There must be some real reason
back Of this demand for protec-
tiOn from range stock, and il
the cattlemen are wise they will
look for the difficulty and en-.
deavOr to correct it.
1t is found that the home
steadars are the ones who want.
ed II herd law. They are here
to stay; are developing the coun-
try and their numbers will in
crease with the coming years.
The most of the fault they have
tn find is that the larger cattle

in the hills without care or at.

be in American vaults. To this
hoard we owe in some degree an
initiation approaching what
might have been the result of
the unlimited coinage Of silver
as urged by the cheap-money
men Of 1896.
Holy Writ, history and fable,
as well as practical experience,
warn us against policies which
overvalue money and under
value the things which in time
OF stress are worth more than
money. We have too much
money at the moment because
the nations with which We are
trading or would like to trade
are at war, and therefore, with
their productive energies restrict
ed, are not able to furnish Us
with the goods We need IN eX-
change for the supplies they eau
obtain only from us.
To be prosperous we must buy
as we'll as sell. To sustain our
enormous exports we must vel.
come enormous imports. II we

The Truth. But Diff
cult to Appreciate
Advertising news:

Advertising news:
Political advertising has
strange effect on the readers OF
partisan newspapers. The news
papers that supported Wilson
or Hughes received many letters
from their readers debouncing
their acceptance OF advertise
ments OF the opposing candi-
date. They became so intense
in their support of their candi-
date that they could not under
stand why a newspaper support
ing Hughes should accept a
Wilson advertisement, and just
the other way around. Many of
them accused the newspapers of
accepting money from unworthy
sources and said hatfootedly
tina, they were apparently
willing to sell out their principles.
if they had any, for money. They
cannot understand that it is the
business of good newspapers TO
print the news of both sides in o
political campaign-and this in
cludes such advertising news as
The parties are willing to pay for
in the advertising columns.
During the last campaign
News-Champion turned down a
great many dollars worth Of
profitable business coming from
republican sources, not because
it was wrong TO publish it as
paid advertising, but because a
whole lot oi true blue democrats
would have thought this paper
was double-crossing the party.
1t il question whether We
took the proper ethical stand
point. The advertising is per-
fpctly legitimate and within a
few years all newspapers will ac-
cept paid advertising from any
party as matter of course.

Give HEARING To
NEWSPAPER men
Publishers and Printers Appear Be-
fore Federal Commission in Probe
of Paper Prices.

Washington, Aug. Newspaper
publishers and printers were given a
hearing today by the federal trade
commission on the scarcity and high
price of news print paper.
The first witness, ]. H. Zerby, rep
resenting the National Editorial asso-
citation. charged that the International
Paper company was holding more than
million dollars worth of newsprint
paper and he compared that with the
fact that publishers all over the cOun-
try are facing increases in price and
the possibility of difficulty to make
new contracts for supplies.
T. p. Dodge, representing the Inter
national Paper company, told the COM
mission the reserve stock Mr.. Zerbey
referred to was held to sustain the
company's record Of never having fail
ed to supply its customers from any
cause whatever, fires floods or strikes.
He added that new mills his company
is about to build Will be in Canada
because the present tariff conditions
are hostile to paper manufacturing in
the United States.
F. B. Glass, vice president Of the
American Newspaper Publishers asso-
citation, testified that the publishers in
the association were morally certain
there were collision among paper
manufacturers to force up the price
and he promised to place in the hands
of the cmomission within sixty days
what he said would be proof of his
statement.
Mr.. Glass said the publishers asso-
citation viewed the situation with ex-
IRENE alarm and had held meetings
recommending increased paper pro-
ductiOn by Sunday work and the lmi-
tation of the use Of paper production
by Sunday work and the limitation OF
the use of paper by smaller editions
decreased returns and circulation in
activity. Increases of 25 to 35 per
cent on contracts and sometimes one
hundred per cent on emergency orders
he said, are taking the profits of most
newspapers and driving others to the
wall.
