to accept the burden we are trying
to impose on it, We come to. plain
fact that the guardians of our uncle
ignore entirely.
Our beloved uncle has an income,
yearly one, of around six billion to
eight billion dollars. But his stupid
guardians are allowing this income
to be collected and used by sUndry
private individuals and greedy cor
pOTatiOns, many of whom are for
eigners and most of whom are as ig-
nOrant in the matter as Uncle Sans
guardians.
This income lies in the land values
of the republic. All of the Unim-
proved value of the land of what
ever kind or nature, mineral land,
agricultural land, land used for high
ways by transportation companies,
water power land, quaTries, forests,
swamps, terminal points, water
fronts, etc., comes from the fact that
our beloved uncle has given and con-
tinueS to guarantee the title and pos
session forever to the present posses
sOrs, their heirs and assigns. This
plumber is what we are going to fight
about now. Germany wants to grab
off a lot that is in possession of other
nations She threatens Uncle Sam.
So we must fight. This tremendous
wealth Of six to eight billions a year
increases with each increase of pop
ulatiOn, with every new discovery
that adds to the power of man to
produce wealth, and this value is not
produced by the owners of the land.
1t is the result of the presence of
Uncle Sans nephews and nieces
upon the land and their industry and
labor in using such Of the land as the
owners of natural opportunities will
permit to be used. Being thus pro-
duCed, it belongs to our uncle. 1t is

VACCINATION FOR BLAckLEG
(By John Wesley Mcknight of the

(By John Wesley Mcknight of the
| Round Butte school,,
| Blackleg is one of the most fatal
diseases that is known. Vaccination
is the only known remedy for pre-
venting blackleg. BY vaccination we
understand, the injection into the
system of a minute amount of at
tenuated, that is, artificially weak
ened blackleg virus. The virus is
obtained from animals that have died
of the disease, by securing the af-
fected muscles, cutting them up in
strips and drying them in the air.
When they are perfectly dry they
are pulverized, mixed with water,
which forms paste. Then it is
placed in an oven and baked for six
hours. The paste is then hard
crust, The paste is then pulverized
and sifted and distributed in small
packages. This is what we call
vaccine.
This vaccine, which is in the form
of brown powder, is mixed with
definite quantities of sterile water.
The liquid is injected by means of
a hypodermic syringe under the skin
in front of the shoulder of the ami
NAL to be vaccinated
The immunity conferred in this
way may last for eighteen months,
but animals vaccinated before they
are six months old and those in
badly infected districts should be
vaccinatcd before the following
! blackleg season.
The above article was sent in to
the Pioneer last week for publication
but we were unable to make room
for it at that time, and we now take
occasion to publish the same and
| also to apologize for the delay.

| DENVER PRIEST SCORES BIRTH
CONTROL PROPOSALS


Denver. COL, Jan. 15.-Declaring
it a crime and an abomination,
Rev. Hugh L. McMenamin, rector Of
the Cathedral of the Immaculate
Conception, yesterday, in a sermon,
bitterly denounced the popular agi-
tatiOn Of the subject of birth control.
''The present agitation for birth
control" said Father McMenamin,
''is the natural sequence of the eu-
genie, sex hygiene and kindred
movements, which for the past few
years have been nauseating the bet
ter part of the public. If one were
to believe these inspired doctors, So
biologists and ministers, the vast
majority of us should never have
been born. They view man as moth.
ing better than an animated ma
chine, mere animal; the question
Of morality or the supreme right of
God never enters their calculations.
With a blasphemous egotism and
monumental conceit that battles
comprehension, they arrogate to
themselves the power of life and
DEATH.
THAT poverty should be alleviated
l grant; but birth control is not the
remedy. 1t is the creation of a great
er evil, for it not only robs the race
and the nation, but it brutalizes the
individual by stuItifying the natural
desire for parenthood"
