CANADA'S BONUS
TO FARM LABORERS
Offering 100 Acres to Farm
Hands.

Canada today, with the great de-
mand that is made upon it for food
stuffs, finds itself almost in the thrOes
Of labor famine. A novel means of
solving the problem has been evolved
by the Canadian Government at Ottawa
on Wednesday last, when it was de-
cided to practically bonus every farm
hand going to Canada, by giving him
100 acres free as homestead, and to
allow the time he would be working out
for, the good wages offered, to count as
residence duties on the homestead.
Western Canada has been big pro-
Queer of grain and it is estimated that
there Is a shortage of over thirty thou
sand men, necessary to produce an av-
erage crop in 1917. This shortage has
been caused by so many young men
having left the farms to go to war, and
1t is essential to make an unprecedent-
ed offer of this kind, to fill their pla ces
on the land at once.
1t has been required in the past to
do three years duties on hOmesteads
to get title, but an additional induce
ment has been offered by practically
reducing this term to two years. AS
explained by an official Of the Canada
an Government, Canada's need for
farm laborers is intense and excep-
tional inducements are being offered
TO get the needed farm workers at
once. A farmland will make his en-
try for one of the 100 acre farms, sat
isfy the Government that he Is work
ing for a farmer and that time will APP
ply as residence on the land filed for,
lust the same as If he was actually
living on it.-Advertisement.

RAILROAD BILLS
FINALLY FORCED OUT OF RE-
LUCTANT COMMITTEES
Placed on House Calendar for Consid-
Grafton After Adverse Reports
withdrawn; to Be Reconsidered.

After sleeping in committees for
six weeks, the bills being advocated
by the railroad brotherhoods were
forced out Thursday morning of this
week. Realizing that the corporation
and railroad committees of the house,
to which the measures had been re-
ferred, intended to keep them pigeon
holed, Representative Robert NJ. Born
of Alamosa, served a twenty-four-
hour notice Wednesday for their re-
port to the house.
Thursday morning the committees
made adverse reports on the FIVE
pending measures. Representative
Born then moved that the adverse re-
ports be non-concurred in and that
the bills go upon the house calendar.
This motion was seconded by Repre-
sentative Theodore II. Proske of Den
yer, and passed by vote of 81 to 20.
Representative Alphone CASTOR Ar
dourel of Boulder. who changed his
vote from negative to affirmative, then
gave notice that he would move a re-
consideration. This must be done
within three days, so that the fight will
probably come next Monday on wheth-
er the bills are to have a chance for
life.
The five railroad measures are the
semi-monthly pay day for railroad en-
ployes. the car limit bill, the switch
engine full crew bill, the experience
bill, and the surprise test bill.

Bible which says: There is no God. -
Considered by itself this would seem
like rank heresy. But il you were
to read the words in connection with
this verse you would find that the
whole statement reads: 'The fool
hath said in his heart, There is no
God" And so men will use certain
portions of the Bible and make it
appear that the Bible says exactly
the opposite thing from what it does
say.
There is another fact to be remem-
bered in studying or quoting the BIZ
BILE: The moral and ethical stand
ards of Abraham's time for instance,
would not, in some respects, satisfy
Gods demands of the men of the
twentieth century. with their greater
advantages and opportunities. And
so it isn't fair to take command or
an ideal presented in the earlier books
of the Bible and insist that these in
present day Christians.
God was lenient with men in olden
times. He did not expect them to live
up to the ideals which we have created
today. The same thing will be true
of the future generations. More will
be expected of them than God 'ex-
poets of us.
Fortunately God has made the way
SO plain that any man HAY know
what his duty towards God and to-
wards his neighbor is, but it requires
serious and reverent searching after
the truth to know the mind Of God,
This is not given to the fiippant dis
putant who has only his own ends to
serve.
The Bible is n book we'll worth our
most careful study. The man who
reads the daily newspapers and the
Bible consistently and discerningly-
that is, with good judgment, will be
well educated man.

USE BIBLE TO KNOCK OUT OPPONENTS
BY THE REV. CHARLES sTELzLE.

Tyrants have sought 10 justify
their positions by quoting Scripture.
Even the devil quoted Scripture in an
attempt to justify his position and TO
strengthen his argument. II is not
surprising therefore that the devils
disciples have sometimes followed his
example.
No one will imagine for single
moment that this means that the Bible
stands for tyranny or deviltry-it
means merely that tyrants and devils
have seen that the Bible is good
book and that 1t would be great
thing to have 1t appear that the Bible
indorses their position.
Sometimes men Of this type try to
secure Gods approval of their own
sclfishncss and mcanness by accept
ing only rs much Of the Bible rs seems
to harmonize with their own ideals
and purposes. That is, they will take
out Of their connection certain texts"
in the Word Of God. making it appear
that God stands for them. Their op-
ponents may be guilty of the same

L. 5. SUPREME COURT RENDERS
IMPORTANT DECISIONS.
Washington, New York, Ohio and
Iowa Workmen's Compensation
Laws Declared Constitutional.

The first compulsory workmen's
compensation or industrial insurance
law-that of Washington state-to
come before the United States su-
preme court, was upheld in a decision
rendered this week as constitutional.
The court also affirmed state de-
crees compelling the Mountain Timber
company of kalama, Wash, to con-
tribute to the state compensation or
insurance fund.
The decision as to the constitution
ality of the law was by a vote of five
to four, Chief Justice White and Jus
tees Mckenna, Van DeNanter and Nc
Reynolds dissenting.
The court also affirmed dismissal by
lower federal courts of personal in
jury suits of August Bay, Gunder Nor
gard and William Raymond of Seattle
against common carriers.
The lower courts held that the en-
ployes could not invoke the federal
employers liability act, but were sub
Ject to the Washington statute.
New York and Ohio compulsory
workmen's compensation laws were
sustained as constitutional.
The Iowa workmen's compensation
law, voluntary upon employers, also
was upheld as constitutional.
The New York statute was enacted
in 1918 and re-enacted in 1914 after
the state constitution had been
amended.
The humanitarian appeal of work
mems compensation laws was empha-
sized in representations to the court
by the New York industrial commits
sion. Growth of public opinion in IA
vor of compensating workmen regard
less of negligence in their injury was
also advocated.

fault with the result that the Bible is
made out to be book full of contra
dictory statements. Neither side will
accept the other sides arguments
even tho both seem to quote from the
same authority.
Here is n truth which men should
keep in mind with regard to the
Bible-the fact that a certain state
mcnt is found in the Bible doesn't
necessarily make il true. What
mean by this will be pointed out di-
rectly. II all depends upon who made
that particular statement and its va
luc also depends upon the circum-
stances under which II was spoken.
The Bible is an inspired account of
what God said. of what the devil said,
of what men. good and bad, have said
and done at various times in the
worlds history. Therefore, in study
ing the Bible it is extremely import
ant to see in what connection GER
