Another Game Played.
McAdoos absence from the Jack
son day dinner here January s was
considered by the same authority as
mastcrful politics.
"One thing. though. seems TO have
pretty generally escaped the attcu-
tion OF press and public alike" he
said. And that was that though
McAdoo declined the invitation Of
the democratic national committee
on the ground OF being an exceed.
ingly busy man, It was he who, per
haps more than anyone else, who
sounded tho keynote Of the ban
quct. Merely read out ds Ii was by
the toasimasters at the two dinners,
1t failed to get the attention there 1t
deserved and is bound to get later.
For II you will but consider this
wichita Falls message of McAdoo's
an instant you will discover in II a
fun platform for the party. complete
from domestic policy to foreign re-
lations.
Reduction OF war taxes: prompt
restoration Of world peace: effective
legislation on internal, financial and
economic questions; improved rela-
tons between capital and labor:
protection Of the public against need
less industrial disputes; promotion
OF the welfare Of our soldiers and
sailors; freedom Of speech and the
press in time OF peace; progress by
ballot instead Of 10y bullet; law and
order: prosecution Of profiteers.
no- persecution OF legitimate bust
ness; protection Of American citi-
zens In every land, America as a
dominant influence for good In the
world. These are some OF the
planks---a real progressive platform.
Funny how nearly everybody over
looked that speech--for that Is what
il was. a speech by wire. not to
the democrats AZ the rally. but to the
millions OF voters scattered through
out the land.

A STRONG MAN NEEDED

He is a bold prophet who will VEN
ture a guess as to what may be the
outcome of internal affairs in Rus
STA. That country is undergoing a
strain so great that turmoil was in
evitable. Changing suddenly from des-
potism to democracy, an ignorant peo-
pie has confused liberty with license,
freedom and anarchy, and chaos has
followed, as was to be expected. The
world does not want Russia to go
back to the days of the car, to the
knout and Siberia or death for poll
teal penalties.
But this much seems apparent from
the outside. If Russia is to become
a country, a strong man is needed to
guide it until something like a stable
government has been established, and
the people realize that there can be
be no real liberty without safety and
protection. Until that strong nan is
found and makes his authority felt,
Russia will be much like Mexico has
been since the passing of Diaz-a
land of uncertainty and revolt, of hor-
o and bloodshed and devastation.

WHY ADVERTISED
STORES SUCCEED

When a man gets out after trade
he gives the impression that he has
initiative and enterprise. He is evil
IDENTIFY not satisfied to do business in
the old rut. the same as he or his
father or the merchant across the way
did last year. So the man who ad-
vertises shows that he is looking for
new customers, new trade, new
friends.
The public will take very kindly to
that type of man. They believe that
spirit will be to their advantage. They
feel that the man who shows a go
ahead-spirit in his selling, will show
it in his buying, too. They feel that
the same initiative will lead him to
take extra effort to get values at the
lowest possible prices, and to give
his customers the advantage.
They feel that the man whose initia-
tive is proved by his advertising, will
show that enterprise by offering his
goods at specially good values. That
is why newspaper advertising finds
immediate response in an increased
stream of customers to an advertised
store.

FATE n LINCOLN
Today is Lincoln's birthday.

Today is Lincoln's birthday.
Nearly a century and a half ago a
father working in his field in a Ken
lucky clearing was shot and killed by
Indians. His three sons were with
him. The Oldest ran to the house and
reached it unframed. The mex In age
ran in another direction for the near
est settlement. The youngest, a boy
of six, vas seized by one of the at
tackers.
When the Oldest boy looked out,
after barring the door, he saw his
brother in the grasp of an Indian.
He took down the family musket,
aimed through the opening and shot
the Indian dead. The boy, released,
made his way to the house. In a few
hours a rescuing party from the near
est settlement drove the raiders
away.
The ~siX-year-old boy was Thomas
Lincoln. He became The father OF
Abraham Lincoln.
Thirty-two years later two boys,
chums. were strolling along Knob
creek, Hardin county, Kentucky. The
younger, only seven years old, at
tempted to swing himself over the
creek on a sycamore tree. Midway he
lost his hold and fell in. The other
rescued him. The rescuer's named
was Gallagher, but few men have
been privileged to perform equal
service for their country.
The boy he rescued was Abraham
Lincoln.
Twice death was cheated that
America might be saved.
1t was chance or something else,
Most Americans prefer to believe it
was something else.

DESERT SHEEP RANGES

1t could not, probably, be stated,
even approximately, what effect legis-
latson, or the lack of legislation, has
had upon the sheep industry as it
exists in the desert country of the
western sections of the United States.
In years past, in the middle western
and eastern sections of the country,
where the production of wool, es-
pecially. was supposed to be affected
by laws governing import duties, the
annual clip" of wool and the annual
addition to the food supplies of the
nation varied, from year to year, di-
rectly in accord with the economic
policies of the administration in
Washington. 1t is likewise true that
these economic policies now have.
and perhaps always have had, their
effect upon tn sh~eep-raising indus
try in the western desert country, but
not to the appreciate extent that this
effect has been noticeable elsewhere.
The explanation is found in the fact
that the industry has survived all
supposed legislative handicaps, and
has progressed and iourished because
1t Is the only industry, broadly
speaking, thus far discovered to
which the desert places are adaptable
For years there were conflicts, in
some western states, between the
cattlemen and the sheepmen. This
was In the days when the free range,
so-called, included vast areas of
lands only semi-arid, lands capable of
producing a somewhat abundant
growth of grass, and where water was
available throughout the season forthe
grazing herds. But modern intensive
agricultural development has mar
rowed down the free range, and now
nearly all semi-arid lands have been
transformed into cultivated farms
This condition has forced the cattle
herds to the fenced pastures, leavine
the desert. the sagebrush wastes, and
the dry water holes to the sheepmen
and their fiocks.
Thus an enforced truce, which re-
suited in a final retirement from the
open range by the cattlemen, with
the consequent undisputed domination
by the sheepmen, came at a most op.
perfume time, viewed from the stand
point of the latter. World economic
conditions produced by the war have
combined { make the wool clip of the
western ranges more valuable, in.
trinsically, than ever before. The re-
suit has been an enormous increase in
the number and size of the herds
with a consequent swelling in the
volume of the annual wool output
and a relatively corresponding add
ton to the worlds food supply. Sheep.
men in the far western country wh6
owned small flocks of sheep in 1911
have become prosperous. some o
them wealthy. Sheepherders in Ne
