Winslow Gets a Plum.

In the appointments made by
Gov. Hunt on assuming his office
of governor is the name Of our
townsman, Ed. Sawyer, as a
member of the Sheep Sanitary
Commission. 1t is a good ap-
pointment, both because Ed. is a
good democrat, and the further
fact there is no man in the state
who is so we'll acquainted with
the sheep industry. He has been
so 'chummy" with the sheep for
the past twenty-five years that
he understands the language,
aud now that he is a member of
the sanitary commission we shall
expect the sheep to walk right
up to him and tell him when
they need a bath, or begin to
feel they are going to be afflicted
with foot or mouth disease.

May | humbly request that more
women take an interest in these

erous indeed in giving financial
support, but the responsibility
has been resting on one man and
four women. We very much need
more people to help find and care
for the unfortunate. Officers
must be elected for the new year,
and those who serve, as have,
verify the words of the Master
who said, "lt is more blessed to
give than to receive" to serve
than to be served.
Yours for service,

and pray Gods blessings may
boost you onward toward the
perfect day where friends part

Some One Has Blundered.

The investigation now being
made in Washington by a COM
mittee of congressman into the
epidemic of disease and the
shortage of clothing and equip
ment prevailing at the several
cantonments reveals the fact
that some one has blundered.
The commanding officers at these
cantonments are plainly out
spoken that the primary cause of
the epidemics of measles and
pneumonia, resulting in so much
sickness and many deaths, was
due to the lack of sufficient hous-
ing accommodations and suitable
clothing. This frst-hand informa-
tion coming from vete an COM
manders must carry some weight
that there is almost a criminal
inefficiency in the management
of the war department. The
mothers of the land gave freely
their sons to go out as soldiers to
fight for their country, but they
did not give them to be bundled
together in camps to die like
sheep from disease that could be
avoided with proper accommoda-
tions.
The soldiers of the first draft
are not yet all fully equipped
with tenting and clothing, and
yet there is talk now of an early
second draft of men to be called,
when a repetition of the same
condition will be sure to follow.
1t was known at the time of the
first draft that the government
was not prepared to properly
house and clothe the men called,
and in all fairness to the men
and their families they should
only have been called in such
numbers as the government was
prepared to handle and equip,
thereby reducing to the minimum
the liability of sickness and fatal
tiles from preventable diseases.

Accidental Shooting.

Last Sunday morning Miss
Olega Sanstaven, a young Mexi-
can girl, was accidentally shot by
young lady companion, while
handling a 22-rifie. The bullet
from the gun passed entirely
through the body of the wounded
girl, entering the back, pene-
trating the right lung and COM
ing out over the right breast.
Doctors were summoned immedi-
ately, who dressed the wound
and report that no serious results
will follow.

Freight Car Shortage.

To our certain knowledge every
winter for the past fifteen years
the railroads have set up a howl
about a freight car shortage
which was responsible for the
slow moving of freight, and now
this winter the council of defense
are joining the chorus with the
railroads, and are urging people
to handle freight rapidly to re-
lease cars in the shortest time
possible. For ten of these years
the writer was connected with a
grain firm that was shipping
hundreds of cars of grain from a
string of elevators, and it hap
pened many times that when
railroads were complaining of
car shortage as reason for not
supplying cars for grain ship
ments, that hundreds of cars
were located stored on blind sid
lngs to prevent them being put
into service owing to lack of mo-
tive power to handle them. Per-
haps when the government takes
charge of the management of
the roads this cry of car shortage
will case, and some systematic
effort will be made to use all of
the rolling stock Of the roads in
the service of the public.
The most of the delay in cars
is chargeable directly to the ton
mage hobby of the railroads, as
the whole theory of modern rail
roading seems to be, not service
to the public, but to cut down
the cost per ton mile in handling
freight. More particularly in the
east, where there is considerable
shipping in carlots from local
stations, we have known of
loaded cars standing on a track
for four and five days, and were
only moved when vigorous pro-
tests were made, and ten days
later the same cars were found
standing on a side-track not
twenty miles away, where they
had been set out to reduce train
tonnage. Freight cars are per.
mitted to accumulate at division
points until the maximum ton
mage an engine can drag is made
up into a train, and then it is
started across the division, and
should it so happen there were
twenty cars of freight at local
stations between they must wait
until local freight comes along
to assemble them at the next
division point.
The only competition in rail
reading for many years has been
to see which road could sperate
at the least cost per ton mile,
and no thought was ever given
to the interests of the public.

To All Concerned.

We desire to express our deep
appreciation for the magnani-
nous contributions made by the
citizens of Winslow to the Knights
of Columbus War Camp Fund.
Our committee that made it's
canvass last Saturday, met with
courteous treatment from all and
the contributions received were
very generous. The Knights of
Columbus have buildings already
under way in all training camps.
Those of you who have friends
or relatives at any of the camps
are urged to write them and
extend our invitation to visit the
buildings and avail themselves of
the comforts provided. These
buildings with their equipment
are for the use of all the soldiers
all the time.

parted for San Diego. The Miss
es Thomas are daughters of Mr..
