pose that the railways had benifted

PLAYING A DANGEROUS GAME

Radical labor leaders threten to call
a general strike unless Thomas JEFF
ferson Mooney is pardoned, the 100
convicted |. w. WIS are released, and
unless Rose Faster Stokes is released
from Jail.
Mooney was convicted of placing a
time bomb to blow up the San Fran
cisco preparedness parade, Bill Hay
wood and his noble 100 are found
guilty of intriguing to defeat mill
tary preparation, and the Stokes wo-
man of seditious utterances.
Labor leaders are asking the rank
and file of labor unions to play a
dangerous part when they threaten
to use militant industrial methods to
overturn the DEGREES of courts.
Criminal syndicalism and conspir-
acy to weaken our government in its
hour of peril are not going to be al
lowed to escape the laws of our coun-
try, and it is a cruel blow to organic
ed labor to place it in the attitude of
defending and championing violence

CONSERVATION OF EDUCATION

Western states are making mis-
take trying to rival older and wealth
Ter eastern states in expanding higher
education.
Universities are luxuries that each
state must support, but it is not good
educational economy to turn out too
many professionals.
Wealthy people who can afford to
give their children classical or profess
sional education should be made to
pay for it as a luxury.
But to multiply this luxury indef-
nitely at public expense is not good
policy, for all professionals have to be
supported by others.
In the same way public schools
should not be keyed up to turn out
all book-keepers and stenographers,
accountants and statesmen.
Boys and girls who are given a
start as mechanics in wood or metal
working, electricians, dressmakers, or
culinary artists will get along.

TEE CRIME OF WASTED ENERG Y

Burning our coal and oil while leav-
ng the waterpowers of the west I'M
developed has been the crime of a de
.ade.
Railroad Administrator McAdoo an
nounces his conversion to the need of
developing western waterpowers and
operating railroads by electricity.
He announces that millions of tons
of coal and barrels of oil should be
saved by using the white coal wasting
n our mountain streams.
One small western river is estimat-
ID to yield 100000 horsepower al
most equal to Niagara, and a section
Of the Columbia river would yield
100000 horsepower.
For ten years political deadlock
has tied up the development of this
greatest of all national resources and
brought about danger of a fuel
famine.
Secretary McAdoo has been spend
ng some time in the west and has had
his eyes opened to the mighty volume
Of power that is lying idle in a time
Of great need.
While we are modelling the ma
tons manpower, it dawns on us that
we should mobilize the wasting water
powers.

There is no such wage poverty and
md misery here as that which made
government charity insurance neces-
sary in Germany and some other Eu-
ropean countries.
In Germany, the only country where
health insurance has been in effect
long enough to prove anything, eX
perience shows the sickness rate is
higher than in the United States and
other countries which have no COM
pulsory insurance.
Europe, the system has made
fraud and malingering almost univer-
sal and many physicians who could
not be induced to connive at dishon-
esty have lost their practice.
1t will destroy medical freedom,
compel the workmen to buy and pay
for sickness insurance whether he
wants it or not and make his home
subject to invasion by inquisitive
political inspectors" and investiga-
tors.
1t has nothing to do with the Work
mems Compensations, two entirely
different sets of principles being in
volved.
Farmers will not participate in its
alleged benefits, but will be required
to pay their share of the huge cost.
1t will set up paternalism and de-
stroy the independence and sclf-rc-
lance of the people, because-"It is
made-in- Germany scheme of thirty
years standing desigend by the Prus
sian autocracy to keep German serfs
in perpetual serfdom."

To turn them all out of public

lie jobs or to make their living by
their wits is a mistake.
There are not enough professional
jobs to go around and not enough
places at the public crib to put them
all on salaries.
The agricultural colleges are turn
ing out about rs per cent of persons
who fill professional positions if they
get any job at all.

RUSHING TOWARD AUTOCRACY

If the people of the United States
of America are permitted to work out
their own national life, without be-
ing amalgamated with international
ism with the loss of Americanism, we
can in all probability help bring up
gradually the lower order of some of
the other nations.
We have been making rapid strides
towards a well disseminated higher
level of life, generally recognized as
distinctly American.
The evolution of this was unmis-
takably rapid.
In the midst of the popular cry
however, of democracy for all the
world, we here in America under the
slogan of "war necessity" are now
rushing at most dangerous speed to-
ward autocracy.
The ideal balance we were steadily
approaching has suddenly given way
to the popular idea of Bolshevism
born of Russian despotism.
1t is well to bear in mind that au-
tocracy exists the moment any country
is controlled wholly by the ''higer ups"
or wholly by the clover downs"
Sudden transition from either one
to the other is revolutionary and an
archistic.
The great question for the Ameri-
can people to decide is whether we
shall continue the sound course which
has given our national success the
American brand, or are we about to
revert to medieval procedure, when
the state will completely obliterate
American initiative and American in
vdualism.-Denver News.

BOON FOR GROCERS.

The U. S. Department of AgTicul-
ture has issued a booklet telling how
to candle eggs. This booklet can be
obtained by writing to the u. S. De-
partmcnt of Agriculture, Washington,
D. c., and asking for Bulletin No.
565. 1t will be mailed free.
This booklet is boon to. grocers
because the new rules of the Food
Administration forbid a grocer to buy
bad eggs. In former days bad eggs
we're paid for the same as good ones.
The Food Administration contends
that practice is unfair to farmers,
who sell only good eggs.
Grocers must know how to candle
eggs so they can reject the bad ones.
Farmers who complain when their
eggs are rejected can be convinced by
the grocer who has an egg. Gambling
device in his store. He can point out
the rotten spots and other defects.

WAS A GRAIN WASTER

Several threshing machines have
been taken from the field by the
Food Administration recently for
wasting grain. Most of these have
been returned to the field after re-
pairs had been made. The first ma
chine to be removed from the field
permanently belonged to Charles Nc
Millen of Oatville, in Sedgwick coun-
ty.
It was not doing good work so Nc
Millen asked the Food Administra-
ton to send an inspector. A man
was sent out from the county thresh-
ing committee. He applied the blan-
ket test. By this test wagon sheet
is placed on the ground and the blow
er was directed against it so that the
straw and shattered grain was caught
in the blanket. After two and half
bushels of grain were threshed it
was found that three pints of loose
grain and about three pints of un-
threshed grain had gone over into the
straw.
Attempts were made to readjust
the machine so it would do good
work, but it was persistently pro-
German and continued to waste grain.
An expert for the threshing ma
chine company attempted to correct
the evil, but without results. 1t was
finally decided the machine was de-
fective. McMillen was anxious to do
good work and was willing to coop
crate with the Food Administration.
Since the machine was defective
it was ordered back to the factory.
The manufacturer will stand the loss
as the machine was guaranteed.
Threshing committees in the vari-
Gus counties are checking up on the
work.
According to the Food Administra-
tion rules the windrows must be
raked after the shocks of wheat are
stacked or threshed. Grain tight
wagons must be used. The men must
clean up about the thresher when the
setting is threshed.
The Food Administration has pow
er to enforce the regulations under
the provisions of the Food Control
Act which forbids waste of food as
long as the war lasts. Heavy fines
and Imprisonment can be assessed
for waste of grain.
The Kansas administrator, howev-
er, expects to be able to get along
without resorting to severe penalties
because Kansas people as a rule
have proven to be very loyal to all
-the-war work.

CONSERVE POULTRY.

"The Food Administration empha-
sizes the Importance from a food
standpoint of killing only such young
poultry as is reasonably 4 mp, but
under present conditions official re-
strictions or sales of small brolers
seem, unwise and unnecessary" says
the federal food administrator for
Indiana.
"The great majority of chickens
weighing between one and two pounds
and sold alive to poultry buyers are
not killed until they have undergone
a fleshing process, which increases
their weight 40 per cent or more.
Usually farmers retain the choic-
est pullets with the expectation Of
Fastening their development into ear
ly layers. To interfere with the sales
of other young poultry would in many
cases result in crowded quarters and
delayed maturity of the pullets."

School District Unchanged

Sometime in May on a peti-
ton signed by c. j. Hays and
others, the County Superin-
tendent detached seven quar-
ter sections of land from the
Meade school district and at
tached same to the Missler Dis
trict. AS the tax for school pur-
poses was already three times
as great in Meade as in MisSler,
the Board of the Meade Dis
trict thought it unfair to reduce
the amount of taxable property
and appealed to the County
Commissioners, who this week
reversed the decision of the SUI
perintendent, which leaves the
Meade District intact.
