RESERVE PASTURES WILL BE

The Forester has recently approved
recommendations OF the District For
ester a. Albuquerque New Mexico, a.
lowing stockmen on National Forests
to construct, free Of charge, reserve
pastures 10 be used for short periods
in the spring for the purpose CT ca
ing for poor stock which are III need
OF extra feed and attention.
One hundred acres VIII he allowed
permi.;ees grazing fifty head or less
and not to exceed two additional
acres. depending On the character Of
ihe forage. for each head of yezr-,org
permitted cattle in excess of fifty.
Such pastures should produce an ex-
cellent crop of forage for use during
the spring since the forage plants will
not be subject to rhe yitiating infiu-
ence of heavy grazing during the
growing season. The use Of reserve
pastures as such will provide for
better use OF the forage and should
be means OF distinctly lettering the
condition OF the range.
The granting of such pastures will
without doubt. be of great benefit to
the rermittees on the Forests. and il
considered one OF the biggest steps
forward in progressive range man

HARDLY CONCEIVABLE.

1t is hardly conceivable, as announced
by representative on the floor of
Congress last week, that of the 10000
millionares at present in the United
States %, 900 became suchsduring the
war. And yet, more remarkable things
have eventuated in this land of Eldorado.
The attention of Congress and all peo-
pie of this country is respectfully di-
directed to this army of %, 600 who
marched bravely into the marts of trade
clad in gold armor, using the shield of
the American dollar, flashing the sword
of sharp business and giving no quar-
tiers. Il was great battle, made pos
sible by the cotemporaneous war for
the worlds freedom wherein hundreds
of thousands of Americas best left
Office and shop and store to GIVE THEM
SELVES AND ALL THEY POSSESSED, If
need be, for ultimate victory. Question
Do the "spoils of war" belong to these
%, 600 greedy GRADERS, and these alone
The foregoing is CLEANED from the
Northwestern Christian Advocate. The
Advocate would not have been far from
right had it suggested with emphasis
that these %, 0G0 be compelled to put
up the full amount Of the Victory Loan
soon to be noated. Incidentally, the
other 1000 millionaires might well be
called upon to contribute "a bit" to-
ward said loan as soother for their
dear rich brothers in corner. Such a
requirement would NEITHER distress or
pinch these fellows so far as actual
need ana comfort OF man goes, and
what relief. what blessing it would be
to the toiler, all common citizens in fact,
who stand to be urged, coerced, etc, TO
yield up their last available dollar to
raise the loan, if the requirement were
carried out.

THE SENATE RESOLUTION.
carried out.
Chicago Tribunel

tChieago Trbnnel
The resolution signed by thirty-seven
members of the senate upon the Paris
covenant may be interpreted as notice
to the president that the coordinate
branch of the government has not Rbdi-
Gated its constitutional function respect
ing foreign relations We think the
action is justified. Mr. Wilson has de-
clared that the covenant, drawn by the
British government and passed upon by
a commission having no representative
from the senate, and selected without
the advice or concurrence of the senate,
must be accepted without change or
amendment by the senate. There is no
precedent. we believe, for such stu
alton, and if we are not to accept rad
zeal change in our constitutional meth
DDS. without the trouble of amendment,
it behooves the senate to express itself,
as it has done at the earliest possible
moment.
The action cannot but affect Mr.. viii
sons influence abroad, but for this he
has only his own course to blame He
has been unwilling to recognize the re-
sponsibility of the coordinate branch Of
government in the formulation of our
international relations and he can hard
ly complain that it had now asserted it.
The Paris covenant is pregnant of
consequences for the future of the
United States 1t represents a drastic
departure from American policies Of the
past That it should be swallowed
whole is a little too much to ask. The
senate and the American people should
give it fair consideration but both
should hesitate before committing the
nation to its provisions. The people,
we are confident, will support the de-
mand that vital interests and policies OF
the United States shall be more explic-
/ lilly protected in any project for better
international organization.
