THE WEST IN THE CABINET

Geographically and from the
standpoint Of developing natural
resources the west is entitled to
the portfolio of the Interior.
Secretary Lane Of the Wilson
cabinet came from California and
was always champion of proges,
sive policies in western matters.
Subtitle influences are at work
to prevent the west from getting
this place to which it is clearly
entitled and switch it to the east
Big eastern interests desire to
dominate in public lands, oil and
mineral development, forestry and
the exploitation of Alaska.
Most Of these influences are re.
dictionary and represent what is
left Of conservation policies that
would tie up the west for the
future.
In the case of Alaska red tape
and dilatory department methods
have kept American enterprise out
of that territory and population
declines.
The west should not be deprived
of the position of Secretary of tho
Interior and it should be filled by
an efficient western statesman.
Congressman MOndell of Wyo
lining, Senator Fall of New Mexico
Governor Campbell of Arizona anc
Herbert Hoover are the type o:
men needed.
! We do not want our hydro-elec
trio powers, reclamation, irriga
ton and forest mineral and OF
resources tied up forever.

MY MOTHERS BIBLE

This book is all that's left me now,
Tears will mbidden start
With faltering lip and throbbing
brow
| press it to my heart.
For many generations past,
Here is our family tree;
My mothers hand this Bible
clasped;
She, dying, gave it to me.
All! well do | remember those
Whose names these records bear,
Who round the hearthstone used
to close
After the evening prayer,
And speak Of what these pages
said,
In tones my heart would thrill !!
Tho they are with the silent dead
Here are they living still!
My father read this holy book
To brothers, sisters, dear;
How calm was my poor mothers
look,
Who learned God S word to hear
Her angel FACET see it yet;
What thronging memories come !!
Again that little group is met
Within the halls of home
Thou truest friend man ever knew,
Thy consistency I've tried;
Where all Were fake | found these
true,
My counselor and guide.
The mines of earth no treasure
give
That could this volume buy;
In teaching me the way to live,
1t taught me how to die.
That is the value of the Bible
its priceless value-in teaching
how to live, it teaches how to die.
Sinners can study it as we'll as
saints-better so, for saints don t
need it. But for most of us, who
like the just man of his scriptures,
falleth seven times a day, the
Bible is what medicine is to a
sick man, what rest is to a Wearied
soul.
There may be some in this
sordid world who are so good, SC
immaculate and so clean, who feel
that they need not the healing
touch of religion. but we rather
Suspect such are like the Pharisee
who talked down to the altar rail
and thanked God he was not like
other men.
We would rather be the Publ
can who stood afar off and thump
ed his breast and said Good be
mercifuI to me, a sinner"
We know not how others feel
but for ourselves we would rather
be the repcntant Publican than
the Wanting PhariScc.
We would rather feel the com.
Function Of contrition than the in.
|toXication of unctuous pride, and
we would not swap our place in
! the Publican's role for all the
Snug Pharisaical paraphernalia in
the world-and in the Publican s
mood we confess our need of the
