FEDERAL FARM LOAN SYSTEM

The Journal is in receipt of a re-
quest to take the lead in calling a
mass meeting of the citizens of Lin
coin county for the last Saturday OF
January to consider the Federal Farm
Loan System. If any citizen is inter
ested enough to take hold OF the mat
ter the Journal will open its columns
to anything that may be necessary to
ally the editor feels that the farm
loan system is a good thing to let
alone, unless you wish to be bitterly
disappointed in the results of your
effort, at least until the system has
been sufficiently tried out to make it
seem that it really brings relief to
farmers who are in need of it. Uncle
Sam is proverbially slow and stupid
in adapting himself TO any sort of
modern business methods. The for
est service, the reclamation service,
the postal savings system and the
percal post system have all been es-
tablished in the past few years. Each
had TO go through a process of evolu-
ton and eliminate the silly foolish and
regulations by which they |
surrounded before they began to as
sumo anything like workable form |
1t seemed that the more senseless and |
useless and annoying a regulation |
was. the slower were the authorities |
to remove it. There is no reason to |
believe that the farm loan system will |
not have to go through a similar evo-
luton before it win be of any great |
service to the farmer public it is in
tended to benefit. But the Journal is
ready to assist in making any sort OF
the Lincoln county pub
lie desires in the matter J.

THAT OFFICIAL LEAK.

1t has been charged that through
! the fundamentally of a member OF
President Wilson's cabinet and high
up senator, the news of Wilson's
peace note was given to Wall street
some ten days in advance OF the is
suing of the note and that in conse-
quence of this leak a pile of money
was made by the offending officials.
Thomas w. Lawson of frenzied fin
ance fame was loud in proclaiming the
facts of the leak having occurred and
denouncing the cupidity of the high
officials concerned. When called be-
fore congressional committee this
week to testify in the investigation
Lawson fatty refused to give the
with the crime although he claimed
to positively know who they were and
that they were guilty as charged. His
refusal to give the names; and the
manner in which he gave what testi-
mony the committee secured from him
has had tendency to form a general
public opinion that Lawson is simply
hot air artist and an all around liar.
Prior to his being called as a witness
before the committee the positive and
emphatic manner in which he made
the charges coupled with the assertion
of others who believed his charges
true, has created an unfavorable pub
lie opinion against the Wilson admin
istration, but Lawson's testimony. the
things he told on the witness stand |
as well as the things he claimed to
know but would not tell has changed |
and the drift of opinion in favor OF |
the Presidents cabinet and the sena- /
tors charged by inuendo. The Amer
lean people like a square deal and are
quick to resent anything that looks
like an unfair proposition such as
Lawson appears to be trying to pull
Of.

BOTH WERE SCARED.
Hard to Tell Whether the Man or the
Bear Ran the Faster.

A prospector named Whately, who
was collecting specimens near Cooke,
Mont, says the New York Evening
Post. worked too long and decided to
spend the night in the mountains. The
weather was warm and pleasant, and
he stood his rifle against tree and
lay down 10 sleep. In the course of
the night he was awakened by the
heavy breathing OF large animal and
an oppressive and very disagreeable
odor. Half conscious of something
standing over him. he lay perfectly
still.
Soon there was "A srunting and snuff
Ing close by his head. and he under
stood that he was underneath Il grizzly
bear. \ cold sweat came over him.
and he was paralyzed with fright.
Whatelys rife was out of reach. He
had no knife. and he feared that the
grizzly might attack him at any mo-
ment. Acting on sudden impulse, he
doubled up his knees and with all his
strength plunged both his fists and
feet simultaneously against the stom-
ach of the beast
1t was a complete surprise for the
grizzly. which WAS even more fright
ened than the man. 1t ran squealing
and believing INTO the timber. while
Whately, whose knees were knocking
together with fright. gathered up his
goods and struck out for Cooke City in
the dark. He did not dare to pause I'M
til he was safe in the settlement.
