MARVEL LOUS GROWTH OF HERD
 0F REINDEER IN PAST WILL
 BE SURPASSED, SAYS NELSON

[ is no means of idenaifying the calves which are therefore lost to tneir rightful owners. Tt is practically the old maverick case of 3the old West repeating itsself in the Far North, said Mr: Nelson. ,'I don't mean to say" he added" that all owners would keep an unmarked calf if he knew it wasn't it his. own but there are others who probably would. But even if all of the herd owners wanted to do so. there is no way of them telling the ownership of the unmdrk- ed calves in their herds. The winter coats of the reindeer makes it i'm possible to brand them as cattle are branded. The system used is to put metal tags in the ears. This is not entirely satisfactory as marks on the tags wear off and the identity of the animal is left doubtful" The sOlu- tion for the small owner, he be- lieves, is in corporation. Several of them by combining grazing allotments can throw their herds together and jointly stand the expense of hiring supertindent and herders to look after the animals.
 nbreeding Harmful
 The harmful effect of inbreeding is shown to a marked degree in the Alaskan herds, he said. The strain of the big herds that havei grown out of the 1,2S0 animals with ta in vigor The Biological. Survey is now studying the practicability of cross ing the caribou with the reindeer, which it is believed will not only put new life into the latter but will almost double the size of the ami mals.
 At present the average weight of the dressed reindeer is 150 pounds ! It is planned to cross with caribou weighing 450 pounds, if they can be secured. o. J. Nitric, an assistant to Dr. Nelson is at present in the Fair | banks district making preparations to capture a number of young cari i bOu bulls. Before beginning, how. ever. he will spend the winter in the Cinema Hot Springs country, near the feeding grounds of a big caribou herd. He has instructions to make ! l careful study of the animals, both . he Barren Grounds type and the | Woodland caribou After this study , s complete the young bulls will be captured and placed with the rein ieer Dr. Nelson stated that two experimental herds would be started as soon as possible.
 EnIarging the Industry
 In the meantime the owners of large reindeer herds are making pre- parations to carry on the industry on a substantial scale. Increased ex- ports are anticipated in the near fli- ture. Lomen Brothers Company, lo-l cated at Nome, now own approxi- l mately 30000 reindeer Dr. Nelson states that this company is now building two cold storage plants. ] each having capacity of 100 ami mals per day They will be ready for business next season when it isl planned to begin regular eXportation of the dressed animals. "The indus try in the near future," Dr. Nelson said will not only solve the ques tion of Alaska's meat supply, but will be an important addition to the food supply of the entire country

GOOD ROADS AMENDMENT NO.
To the Kansas Constitution

Every voter should give careful
consideration to the Constitutional
Good Roads Amendment, which is of
such vital Importance to the future
of the State of Kansas.
The constitution of the State of
Kansas prohibits the use of any state
funds in the improvement of its
roads, this being the only state in the
Union restricted in this matter by its
constitution.
The Constitutional Good Roads
Amendment, which will be voted upon
November 2, removes this restriction
and gives the legislature the right to
pass a law providing that a limited
amount of state funds can be used
roads.
The amendment has nothing to do
with the issuance of bonds or as to
how, when, where, or at what cost
roads in Kansas are to be built. De-
cision in these matters remains en-
tirely with the benefit districts and
county commissioners in counties in
which the roads are improved. The
amendment simply makes it possible
TO make a fairer distribution OF the
cost in case a main highway is perm
anently constructed.
Today, the motor car is the prime
ipal user of our roads. Nebraska,
Missouri, Oklahoma and Colorado,
the four states surrounding Kansas,
and practically every other state in
the Union, is using at least part OF
the motor car, license fee in the con-
struction of improved roads. This
cannot be done IN Kansas until the
constitution is amended.
It is impossible to conceive Of any
valid objection to the amendment, as
the amendment simply gives our state
legislature certain powers concerning
road improvement which the legis-
Iature of every other state IN the
Union possesses.
The amendment must be adopted
if Kansas IS to have equal opportun-
tiles with other states in the con-
struction of good roads.

Nature TOOK lis Course

It is not alone the hour of extreme
physical peril that tries mems souls.
The temptation to acquire great
wealth or achieve fame may ~call for
the exercise of moral courage of the
highest type.
An insight into the nobility of
character, unselfsh devotion to prin-
ciple and remarkable possession
of Warren G. Harding is CLEANED
from one of the history making
"asides" of the Republican National
Convention, as yet unpublished.
The crisis came after the eighth
ballot. 1t was apparent that General
Wood couldk not be nominated and
none understood better than Gov
ernor Lowden, the impossibility of
his own selection. The Convention
was in a turmoil. Realization had
come for the first time to many dele
gates and to the gallery that neither
of the two leading candidates could
be nominated and that the selection
of another when Uhe convention re-
convened, was imminent. The drift
was to Harding, but in the excite
ment that prevailed, almost anything
might happen The Managers of
Governor Lowden and Senator Hard
ing, each unknown to the other, had
induced their candidates to come to
the Auditorium for the purpose of
consultation. In the tense moments
that followed, these two distinguished
gentlemen met just outside the Con-
vention Hall. Governor Lowden had
made hard fight. With the nominal
ton almost within his grasp at one
time, he now realized the hopeless
ness of his position. He believed in
Harding. He cared more than all
else for the success of his party.
Senator Harding" said the gov
ernor, SCI shall go on the Convention
floor and withdraw my pane. 1t will
result in your nomination"
The opportunity had come to
Harding for which great men have
planned, labored and sacrificed. The
nomination of the presidency of the
United States was offered him. But
it was not Harding's way. Placing
his hand upon Governor Lowden's
shoulder, he said, "Wait, Governor.
Let nature take its course" 1t re
quired rare courage. In the excite
ment of the moment, the convention
might be stampeded to another. But
Harding wanted the nominee to be the
choice of a majority of the delegates.
It called for magnificent self-posses-
sion. Harding was the coolest and
apparently the most unconcerned man
in the Convention. 1t was a gener-
Gus impulse, the devotion of life
long principle of fair play and a
square deal from which the excite
ment of the moment or the lust for
ambition or power could not swerve
him.
mature was allowed to take its
course" and Harding was the IN
animous choice of an uninhuenced
convention on the 10th ballot.

Not Public Servants

Perhaps sixty per cent of the edit
orial writers on the large city news
papers are engaged on publications
of political faith opposite to their
own. Quite number of publishers
believe a good Democrat is really the
best man to write Republican edit
orials and vice versa. All of which
provides another sound reason for the
editorial plural. The voice of the
paper is expressed, not necessarily
the opinion of the writer.
The product of writer is his COM
modify. He is paid for his knowledge
his ability to marshall facts and CO.
gently present them. Having turned
out a powerful Republican editorial
he feels justified in going to the polls
and voting the Democratic ticket, or
having given the Democratic argu-
ment in favor of the League of Ma
tons he feels he may voice his per-
sonal disapproval of the League in
his ballot.
The situation in the country is
quite different In the country the
political writer generally is the pub
Usher, and as a rule the publisher pro-
duces a newspaper in harmony with
his own political belief. True there
are some Democrats who have bought
good paying Republican newspapers
and conduct them successfully, and
here and there are Republicans who
own Democratic newspapers. AS a
rule, however, these publications drift
sooner or later into the Independent
class. There is something irritating
to the publisher in his knowledge that
he must pledge the support of his
newspaper to a platform before he
knows what that platform is and that
he must support candidate before
he knows the identity of the candi-
date.
Much of this supine following of
party dictation comes from the pub
lisher's close association with rabid
partisan readers and 3 consideration
of the financial result OF political in
dependence. Again, many publish
ers for years have been grounded in
the belief that the publisher is pub
lie servant rather than a business
man who sells news to the people. He
has not seen that he IS public serv-
ant only in so far as he must please
the people with the wares he offers.
Many a publisher has been wreck
ed on the shoals OF mistaken. ideal
ism only to find too late that the
newspaper after all IS a business
enterprise. American Press

How LaBor's Earnings Help Business


The average worker today earns
probably at least $3.50 a day more
than he did in 1914. This increased
income for 100000 workers totals
over seventeen billions a year or fifty
three million dollars day. Two
thirds of this increase is consumed by
the increased cost of the necessities.
The remaining third or six billions a
year, eighteen millions a day, repre-
sents the measure of the workers in
creased purchasing power and is the
cause of the present prosperity.
Suppose that extra income enables
the worker to buy fifty cents worth
of meat more per week for his family
than he formerly bought. That would
increase the demand for meat and
packing-house products by almost a
billion year. Suppose every Amer
lean discarded pair of shoes after
nine instead of twelve months. That
would man a new American market
for twenty-five million pairs Of shoes
annually. Suppose the thirty-five
million smokers increased their nicO-
tine expenses by quarter a week
each; the resulting new market would
absorb $4OO,OOO,OO0 worth of to-
bacco in a year Suppose each of the
twenty million American families
could afford to rent or build an addi-
tional room; that would mean the
construction of 100000 new five
room houses.

The Farmer and the Price of Whea

The Farmer and the Price of Wheat
"The Kansas wheat grower feels
keenly the manipulation of wheat
prices by the Board of Trade and the
effect of millions of bushels of Can
adam wheat coming into the UNITED
States, as well as the cold indifer-
ence of the Department Of Justice at
this critical time relative to the farm
ers' interest" according TO A. @.
Miller, Director of Publicity of the
Republican State Committee.
Between the manipulation Of the
wheat gamblers at Chicago, and the
flow of millions Of bushels Of Can
adian wheat into this country free Of
duty and the failure of the Attorney
Generals Department at Washing
ton to act, conditions for the wheat
grower have become so serious" says
Mr.. Miller, "that Governor Allen
wired President Wilson asking him to
investigate not only the Importation
of Canadian wheat, but also to IN
vestigate the methods of the wheat
gamblers on the Chicago Board of
Trade. Thus far no action on the
part Of the Government to relieve the
situation has been forthcoming.

year is 225, 900, 900 bushels. The

Extravaganza and High Prices.

To lavish expenditures by those
hitherto unaccustomed to more than
meagre income is attributed I'M
many quarters the increased cost OF
living. The theory fails to fiji
with very many facts, but let that
pass. AS theory it is no worse
than the old time fallacy which look
ed upon the lavish spender as pub
lie asset because he put money in
circulation" This old fallacy served
its purpose as a bulwark of predatory
privilege. Public opinion was ready
then to forgive any generous spenderI
the mehod by which he got his
money, or to condemn the reformer
who insisted on changing things SO
that only those who earned money
should get it. The new doctrine i'm
plies that the lavish spender is
public nuisance even if he has given
value in return for every dollar he
spends. While the doctrine may not
be correct, it leads logically to pub
lie policy that is sound. However
evil one may consider the exchange
of one mans earnings for the goods
and services of another, it must be
still more harmful to give up earn
ings for an unfairly inadequate re-
turn or none at all. So public policy
should forbid the squandering OF
earnings in payment of exorbitant
profits to trusts and monopolies, In
unearned increment to land specu-
lators, and in payment m
than once for the same public SER
vice. Since no one INDUCES volun-
tarily in such extravaganza, but finds
himself compelled by law to yield
the remedy is withdrawal from privi-
legged individuals of the power to en-
force payments of that kind. The
government itself is criminally ex-
travagant when it allows an indiyid-
ual to collect for his private use land
values due to the industry of all, and
which should rightfully go into the
public till and be used for public
purposes. Then, having lost by this
extravaganza, it forces extravaganza
upon the individual when it compels
him to pay a second time in taxes on
his labor for public benefits already
paid for in ground rent. The stop
page of such extravaganza is un-
questionably desirable.
