Lonely pMelIInn Place.

The southernmost permanently in- habited spot in the world is Laurie island, in the South Orkneys, and it's sole inhabitants are the party of me- teOrologists who maintain station there for the meteorological service of Argentina. The Argentine government sent out a new staff last February, as usual, on a naval vessel, to relieve the observers, whose term of service in this desolate spot lasts one year. From time to time there has been talk of installing wireless station at Laurie island, but still the place is cut off from all communication with the rest of the world Scientific .A"--.4can.

Canon City Chamber
of Commerce Joins
National Chamber

With the eyes of the business world
directed toward Washington there is
added interest in the announcement
that from now on the Canon City
Chamber OF Commerce will have a
voice in the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States, the most represen-
tstive business organization in the
country. According to a notification
received by Secretary Bradbury from
Elliott H Goodwin. general secretary
of the national chamber the Canon
City Chamber of Commerce has been
formally elected to membership in the
central body. which numbers 1,130
commercial and trade organizations.
Every state in the Union and our out
lying possessions are represented. also
the principal American Chamber OF
Commerce abroad of which London.
Paris, Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai are
typical.
The Canon City Chamber OF Com
merce will appoint national coun-
cillor who will serve as the connecting
link between his organization and the
national chamber. Hereafter when
policies, affecting our commerce are
under discussion by the Federal au-
thorities. the Canon City Chamber of
Commerce will have a chance to ex-
press itself. From time to time ref
ereEda are sent out by the national
chamber for the purpose of ascer-
tanning fo- the benefit of Congress and
the President opinion prevailing
throughout the country on questions
of immediate importance.
1t will receive weekly general bull
letin which probably contains the
freshest and most reliable news of .ts
kind to be secured from any source.
In addition to the privilege OF mem
bership included in the direct service
as outlined above. members also have
the privilege of utilizing the informa-
tion bureau of the chamber maintained
at the national headquarters. to OBJ
tain information OF direct interest to
them. This amounts virtually to the
Canon City Chamber OF Commerce
having special Washington repre-.
sentative.
The Chamber OF Commerce OF the
United States early pledged the sup
to-t of business to the war in the most
comprehensive and sweeping terms. II
declared that American business Is
ready for heavy taxes. for the dissi
patton of its savings. is ready to turn
over its plants. and to do any and
every other thing which may be nee
essary to prove that American busi
ness is behind the war until the last
gun is fired.

MEN, WOMEN AND THINGS

It is true that we hardly know what Is come out to let us know that political, administrative and governmental changes are following rapidly on one another
 Now we read that Ebert has become chancellor. It might be we'll for us to get line on this office as it was before the armistice was signed You will re- member that President Wilson discrimi- mated between a government responsible to the people and one at the beck and call of autocracy.
 The only official of the German empire provided for in the consultation is the 1 chancelorA He is the supreme officer of the empire, not simply the most im- {, portant member of the cabinet, like the Prussian prime minister, which position he usually holds.
 lt It will be recalled that Bismarck, in 1877, said in the Reichstag: T have tried the experiment of ceasing for time to be Prussian prime minister thinking that was strong enough as chancellor. I have made complete mistake by doing so and after year I have repentantly returned and said. I will either resign or have the presidency of the Prussian ministry again.
 Remember, there is no imperial cabinet As seen above, the chairman has two- fold position, l. e.. he Is chairman of the I Bundesrat and head of the imperial ad- ministration. The system of official or ganization in Germany being bureaucratic ] or centralized, the chancellor assumes responsibility, for the decrees and ordi- nances of the Kaiser by adding to them his counter-signature.
 But powerful as was Bismarck the iron chancellor" the man for whom the office was created and who had much to do in it's shaping in spite of his tremendous service to the, Hohenzolierns in welding the German states together and making 1t possible for the King of Prussia to be- come Emperor of the German empire, he was sacrificed by William II. the grand son of old Emperor William I. and since then has always appointed chancellors more or less willing to carry out his own personal policies
 Count Caprivi. Prince Hohenloe. Prince Bulow and pr. Won Bethmann- Holweg
 along with others following since the war was declared, have as whole beer
 his tools. The sovereign body of the empire, the Bundesrat. has nothing to dc
 with the appointment and removal or tns
 chancellor, he is responsible to the kai' ser, and to him alone, President VII
 sop. being sure of this, did not care '
