Nearly every member of the leg
islature, and the governor, are in
favor of the $4,000, 900 bond is
sue for improving the highways,
and they all think it is a great
patriotic duty. 1t would seem
the bill should pass easily, but
the rocks on which it is drifting
is partisan control. At present
the appointment of a state engi-
neer is lodged in Gov. Campbell,
who is a republican, and the bill
in the legislature, which is a
democratic body, provides that
a commission of five state officers
including the governor, who will
be the only republican, will name
the state engineer and control
the Doodle. Evidently the big
bond bill is not such a patriotic
measure as all it's advocates
would have the people believe,
but is simply bill for spoils and
Doodle, and in the row over who
controls the funds the people
will be blessed by having the
bill killed. If the funds were to
be honestly expended, what diff
ference does it make to the dem
ocratic legislature if Gov. Camp
BELLS appointee directs the ex-
penditures, or on the other hand,
if the Governor favors the great

Bolshevik in the Making.

The film producers companies
have served notice on the Ne
braska legislature that if they
pass moving picture censor bill
now pending the producer COM
panies will withdraw from the
state; in New York several bodies
of organized labor have voted to
strike July 1st in protest over
the adoption Of the national pro-
hibition amendment. 1t is just
such acts as these that lead up to
the breeding of bolshevism in
this country, and the sooner the
people wake up to the fact that
Legislation in this country is not
to be regulated by strikes and
threats the better it will be.
After the publication of the
threat OF. the producers compan-
les tn e Nebraska legislature
should pass their censor bill
promptly without a dissenting
vote, as notice to the million dol
lar trusts that the people still rule
in that state, and if they want
to withdraw other companies will
rise up to occupy the field. We
remember a number Of years ago,
in that state, the insurance COM
panies said they would withdraw
their business if the valued pol
icy law" was passed, and the
companies were only too glad to
get back into the state for busi-
ness.
If certain bodies of New York
organized labor go out on a
strike when the prohibition law
goes into effect July 1st, every
man should lose his job and new
men brought in to take their
places permanently.
This country is ruled by ma
jorities and not by minorities. If
laws are passed that are not
pleasing either to capital or labor
there is a decent, orderly way to
go at it to have them repealed;
but to try to force their repeal
by threats and strikes is bolshe-
vism of the purest type.

Giving legal advice to a young
lady must be hard and strenuous
work, because when an attorney
locks himself in a room with a
buxom lady and blows out the
lights, then he takes off his coat
and collar. When in full action
giving legal advice under such
circumstances it must be like
saving wood. But we still can
not understand why an attorney
should crawl under the bed when
giving legal advice.

Every demagogue in the coun-

to basis all his hobbies on the
'poor soldier boys" to enlist sup
port for himself so he can land
some good paving political job.
And during that time the ''poor
soldier boys" are going to keep
moving right along on their own
initiative doing things, and max
ing places for themselves in the
world. The real demagogue will
probably be some Stacker who is
trying to make up for his cow

It will be pleasing information
to the taxpayers of this county
to know that during the month

legal services rendered the coun-
ty by attorneys, Notwithstanding
we have elected an alleged law
yer to the position Of county at
torney whose duties are to handle
the legal business of the county.
Evidently the board of supervis-

legal ability of the county attor-

Con gress has declined to make
an appropriation of eight or ten
millions Of dollars to maintain
the alleged U. S. Employment
Bureau, which was created prin-
cipally to provide lot of soft
jobs for deserving democrats, and
have the people foot the bill. 1t
is the same old cry of the crowd
that stands to lose out on their
jobs, that the bureau is needed to
provide employment for the re-
turning soldiers. Is it possible our
husky American soldier boys are
coming home helpless to make a
place for themselves in civil life,
and it is necessary to have bu-
reaus established all over the
country, with thousands of sala-
ried attendants, to give them a
push to get them back into the
ranks as civilian workers? Our
boys are all coming back with
their natural American wits well
sharpened from contact with peo-
pie and customs oversee, and
every one will be amply able to
work out his own salvation with
out any assistance from these
employment bureaus. The lads
who come home manned may
have to fit themselves for some
new calling they can follow for a
livelihood, and these are the ones
who may need temporary aid
from the government while they
are undergoing the preparatory
period. Employment bureaus will
will be of no assistance to this
class of men, as their wants will
be educational along vocational
lines or university training. 1t
would be better to save the ten
million asked for the employment
bureau to be paid out in salaries
to deserving democratic politi-
clans, and devote the money to
help finance the disabled soldier.

Gov. Campbell will veto it, and

If the government is anxious
to do something for the soldier
boys, let the war department
speed up on returning the soldiers
back to their own land so they
can get back into gainful pursuits
instead of keeping them idle in
French camps at S33 a month.
There is not much to inspire a
young mans ambition at $33 a
month, when he knows that if he
could be discharged from the
service he could be- earning five
times as much in the old job he
left to shoulder a gun for the

If the spirit of George Wash
ington could look down on the
people of his country celebrating
his birthday by trying to entan-
gle the United States in European
politics through league of ma
tions, he would sadly realize how
soon his counsels were forgotten,
For century and a half this
country has stoutly maintained
that no foreign power could in
wade the two American CONT
nents, and any efforts so to do
would be viewed with distrust,
and now with a league of ma
tions we are to give it power, not
only to invade the smaller repub-
lies of the American continents,
but also extending the right and
privilege to reach into the United
States to direct our political and
economic policies whenever a
majority of the league of nations
so elect. If we had fewer theo-
rists in the peace conference, and
more practicalists, we would have
far less to fear of the ultimate

show that Logan county leads all
other counties in the state in the pro-
duction of this crop, with total out
put OF close 10 2.000. 900 bushels.
Only three other counties, Washing
ton, Weld and Yuma, have produced
more than 200, 600 bushels Of winter
wheat this year, and ten counties in
the state. Chaffee, Clear Greek, Gil
pin, Denver. Hinsdale, Lake, Mineral.

port no production a, all Of this crop
The total production is approximately
IL .0O0, 900 bushels. the largest on re-
cord. The acreage devoted 20 this
crop was much the largest ever report
ed. but unfavorable weather conditions
in most sections Of the state brought
the average yield per acre far below
nirnal. Reports now available indi-
cate that the average yield on irrigat-
ed land was nearly 25 bushels, While
the average on non-irngated land was
less than 10 bushels. Only u little
more than IL per cent Of the total
acreage devoted 10 winter wheat was
irrigated, 20 that the average yield
per acre for the state. both irrigated
and non-irrigated land, was less than
u bushels per acre. IL the season
had been a normal one throughout
the state. the production of winter
wheat alone would have been greater
than the largest previous production
Of winter and spring wheat combined.
Compare this with forty bushels
raised IN this county on unirrigased
land At 5000 feet by Earl MccuIly.

MORE LIVESTOCK ASSOCIA-

r w. Clark in News Notes.
This is the season Of the year when
farmers begin to think Of the winter
business operations. Last year about
twenty cooperative livestock ship
ping associations were formed and
these saved the farmers thousands Of
dollars. Prospects are now that IN
even larger number will be formed
this year. These associations have .
work to do in all parts Of the state.
In one or two fruit sections they have
been Of great benefit TO the producers.
There is more live stock to ship in al
sections than some people think and
q person is always surprised when he
investigates the railroad receipts.
Some people think that co-opera-
tive live stock shipping associations
are only for certain sections of the
state, but this is \ mistake. There
shoald be hundreds Of these associa-
lions in Colorado and there is work
for them in every part Of the state.

Washington would forget the Western

our own affairs. Usually We can de-

ing some Of the ill-advised and foolish

at is my experience that legisla-
