 The death of MT. Edwin Scott came as a serious blow not only to his family but to Hydaburg Trading Go. and the town welfare in general. MT. Scott was the mill fore man and member of the Board of Directors. As mill foreman, he had few equals. He Was always able to get a. long with his men under his supervision. As a director he served the best interest of the company faithfully.
 As a citizen, he always kept the welfare and progress of the whole town uppermoSt in mind. We miss the cheerful, optimistic, yet commanding presence of MT. Scott. The New Native expresses deep syampathy with those near and dear to him.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

An increase in income ere ates a desire for more of the comforts of life. This econom- ic fact is supported by the great number of homes going up in the various native vil- lages. The natives of South east Alaska were fairly pros porous this year in the fishing industry. The local stores are kept busy ordering furniture, building materials, and many of the comforts of a good home, a demand that existed in a much less pronounced de- gree last year.
 The trouble with saving for the rainy day in this part of Alaska is, that it rains al- most necessarily. Neverthe- less, we should lay by a little for investment in our various cooperative enterprises. The Cohoe and King Salmon may not camp here next year.

The question is right up to every one of us: What have you to give? what ideas, thots, song, speeches, acts will you bring that will add to the in- formation and apprection Of all?

The Farmers Income

A farmer must figure up all in
come derived from the sale or ex.
change of products duriRe the year,
whether such produce was raised on
the farm or purchased and resold
He is allowed to deduct from this
total his expenses Of the year con
nected with the planting, cultiva
ton. harvesting and marketing of
the crop. or the care, feeding and
marketing of live stock He is not
allowed to deduct the amount ex-
pended in 1918 in purchasing stock
for resale, unless sold in the same
year; but when such stock is sold its
cost is to be deducted from sale
price in ascertaining the gain to be
included in his return of income
The cost price of stock bought pr ior
to 1917 cannot be deducted as in
the case just cited, if such cost was
included 10 che deduction made in
the year of purchase,
A farmer is not required to in
clude in his income tax computa-
ton the value of farm produce con
sumed by himself and family, But
in cases where he exchanges pro-
duce for merchandise, groceries,
ETC., the market value of the arti
Giles received 10 exchange must be
included.
All other items of income arising
during the year through personal
service, business or trade. through
use of property or money should be-
added into the gains for 1918

Army Y, M. c. A.

Considerable criticism of the
army Y NJ c. A work in France is
heard, and will probably result in p
general Investigation.
II should be kept 10 mind that
the Y. M c A. was put up against
q practically impossible proposition.
They were asked to take charge OF q
great business spending 100000,
600 year. Most of the trained
secretaries never had had any ex.
perience in that line of work. II
was about like taking a bunch of
ordinary men out of the streets and
asking them TO operate the Burlings
ton railroad.
Furthermore there weren,t--tra
ed secretaries in the country enough
to take charge Of all these camps.
1t become necessary to take on any
ordinary fellow of fair ability who
might apply. Naturally most of
them were not up to the enormous
bu 'iness task that needed some of
the biggest business brains 10 the
country That the organization
succeeded as well as it did with
this terrific proposition to handle is
amazing. The general testing of
the army heads was that it did
much better than was expected.
Some people have condemned it
for taking OH the canteen work.
Yet the government wanted it to
do it, and it could hardly refuse
The Y. NJ. G. A. would have attain
ed more popularity if it had passed
this JOB over to some one else, but
it would have missed great chance
to come Toto intimate contact with
the men.
When the soldiers get home, they
will no doubt tell the story of self
sacrificing. earnest service by the
Y M. C A men They toiled long
hours under great difficulties and
frequent danger. Most of the secre
taries asked for front line service
and they paid heavy price in kill
ed and wounded. In spite of al
difficulties. the ~" brough the
home touch to the soldiers and the
army heads said that one Y" mar
added as much to amy efficiency
as IL soldiers ordinarily could.

Robinson Will Case

The famous will made by Temple
B Robinson. thought to be the only
one of its kind in A. erican history
was argued 10 the supreme court at
Jefferson City, Tuesday, Judge j. NJ.
Crutcher. James H. Whitecotton,
James J Browning and A. T. Stuart
representing the estate and the
county while Attorney General Nc
Allister and Judge Maher, Of St.
Joseph appeared for the heirs who
are seeking to set the will aside.
Mr. Robinson. it will be remember
ed, was of a Socialistic disposition,
stating in his will that, having
wrongfully withheld his money
from the public his duty was TO
make restitution by making the
public his heir Accordingly, he be-
Queathed one third to the state, one
third to the capital of the school
fund of Monroe county," and one
third to the capital of the school
fund of Paris district" The estate
is. worth about $4,000. Contestine
heirs put forward the argument
that the funds named, not being
legal entities, could not legally be-
come heirs to an estate Attorneys
Crutcher, Browning. Stuart and
Whitecotton argued that the be-
quest. being in the nature of chart
ty, the county court, as custodian
of the school fund, could legally in
herit it as trustees. While the suit
has been pending taxes to the
amount of $500 have accumulated
at Paris against the estate. A de,
cision is expected inside of three
months .-Paris Appeal.

Reducing Food Costs

The idea that the business Of food
production needs reorganization is,
not one held merely by easy chair
philosophers and smart newspaper
fellows who never saw hoe nearer
than a railroad car window. 1t is
the prevailing scientific expert
opinion For Instance. Elwood
Mead, chairman of the California
Land Settlement Board, in a recent
magazine article says. The time
has come for sweeping reoreaniza-
ton of our agrariau system. he
refers to American dealings with
the soil as form of anarchy, and
says the losses by exhaustion of the
soil through lack of fertilization
and failure properly to rotate crops.
have been more destructive than if
all farm houses aud buildings in
this country had been swept away
b. fire.
The first respect in which farming
is not efficient as compared with
factory production, is that farming
has not employed machinery to
anything the same extent Farm
tractors, for instance are revolu-
tionizing co ditions on many pro-
perties. But the people do not be-
gin to realize yet how generally they
could be used. There is a steep
hillside country 10 Oregon and
Washington where tractors are
working on slopes of so per cent
grade One farmer in that section
who bought a tractor last spring
said last September that it had al
ready nearly paid for itself, Ia one
country in this district. it is said
that the use of harvester and thres-
her combines" had saved the time
of 200 men.
And this great economy of man
power. and cost of subsistence Of
workers, was made by just one type
of machine Now if similar, econ
omies could be made in every agri.
cultural county in the country, in
all the various processes of farm
work. so far as local conditions per-
NIT, the total saving would be al
most unbelievable Any progress
sive farmer could expect a large
measure of prosperity his output
wonid be greatly increased. He
could afford to sell his products for
less money for a given quantity.
The food price question would be
largely solved.

Save the Primary

has appointed a committee to COLA
borate with similar committee ap.
pointed by the Republican State
Committee, looking to the repeal of
the State primary law.
Why is the Democratic State
Committee taking so much interest
in depriving the rank and file OF the
Democratic voters Of voice in
making nominations?
Is Ben F. Neale, chairman Of the
Democratic State Committee, a
party to this conspiracy? If not. it
would be well for him to repudiate
it promptly. for his name mas been
prominently connected with the
scheme.
The move to repeal the primary
law is of Republican origin Its
chief newspaper supporters are The
St. Louis Globe Democrat and The
Kansas City Journal, both Republi-
can organs Why should the Demo-
cratic State Committee lend itself
to this conspiracy against the rights
of the voters?
The advocates of the repeal of
the primary law favor the old con
vention system, under which the
bosses are usually supreme. The
people of this State remember too
well the evils born of the cOnven.
ton system to ever place such pow
er in the hands of the bosses again.
The advocates of the repeal of
the primary law claim that the
rank and file of the people cannot
be trusted 10 make nominations
As was said Oy former Gov Folk a
few days ago in The Republic, in a
statement opposing the repeal OF
the primary law:
Ii the people cannot be trusted TO
govern themselves, by what process
of reasoning can it be assumed that
the bosses can be trusted to govern
the people?
The primary system of course. is
not perfect There is 10 system oil
government by the people that viii
work automatically. Governmen
by the people is not a lazy mans
form of government. If the people
do not always appreciate the power
given them by the primary law
the remedy is not to take away the
power, but to arouse the people SO
that they will exercise their civic
duties.
We have just fought great wal
to make the world safe for demo
cracy. Government by the people
is now the dominant thought of the
civilized nations of the earth. The
argument of those who would re-
peal the primary law in its last an
alysis is for monarchical form OF
government, government by the
few instead of government by the
many. If the principle of the pri'
mary law is wrong, then govern.
ment by the people is wrong.
The Democratic State Committee
is in mighty poor business 10 aiding
this conspiracy of the prophets o
reaction against popular govern
ment. The people of the Stat,
should awaken and write their re
representatives. in the Legislature
warning them against voting Il
substitute boss rule in place O
government by the people unde
the primary law. We do not be
lieve that the Legislature will b
so misled as to repeal the primar!
law, but if it should, the referendum
will be called for and the questio
submitted to the people of the Stat
whether or not they wish to Civ
up the power placed in their hand

Wolves in Bates Co.

Wolves are becoming a great
menace to the farmers and stock
raisers of Bates County. and there
are daily reports of depredations Oh
sheep folds and cattle pens. the
wolves are particularly numerous in
the western part of the county
along the Marais DIES Cygnes River
They are now travelling in some Sec
tons in large packs. and many of
them have recently been killed by
hunters.
At Rockville, in the southeast
corner of the county, three young
men with dogs, went hunting day
or two ago, and, met a big pack,
with large and ferocious looking
gray wolf 10 the lead The wolves
gave chase to the men and dogs,
and ran them into the town.
A few miles west of Adrain a
farmer was chased by wolves We'd

in tree, where he remained for
several hours until help arrived The
wolves tore one of his shoes off be-
fore he could get out of their reach
Numerous drives are being called
for the early part of this week. and
farmers hope to kill many of the
wolves. They are mostly of the big
gray species. A few coyotes are
seen among them. They have
killed many sheep aud some few
calves. but their chief food see ms

OF FATE
NazimOvia's Great Classic
Screen Production

In this vital human document the
celebrated Russian actress plays the
part of Azah, a gypsy princess, of
whom fate demands that she avenge
the wrong done her mother. The cup
of love is placed at Azah's lips only
to be snatched away, and life seems
to play at crOss-purpOses with this
true-hearted daughter of the ROmany
race. Idyllic surroundings of great
beauty form the background for dy-
manic events of dramatic power. Re-
ward and recompense come to the gyp-
sy girl when she has offered her life
to save another, and destiny at last
gives her full measure of happiness so
long withheld. There is unfOrgetable
quality in TOYS OF FATE" and in
the superb work of the great Nazi-
nova as Azah.
