DIsouE.s DISTINGUISHED SERVICE.

II q company were organized for
the purpose Of producing spruce
lumber to supply desperate emer-
gency would common sense and
common honesty indicate the en-
ployment of an experienced lumber
and timber operator as superinten-
dent as against the warden of a
penitentiary who had never seen
much less had experience in lumber
ing? The democrat administration in
the emergency which demanded
spruce for airplanes chose the lat
ter. Why? Who knows except the,
democrat administration. 1T is said
that the prison warren was chosen
because he stood in with. Samuel
Gompers and Secretary of Labor
Wilson.
This man, Disque was put in
charge Of the spruce production.
The secretary Of war took $4,000 men
out Of the army and sent them to
work under Disque. Disque refused
lumbermen places in his organiza-
ton and brought in other inexper-
fenced persons as his assistants to
hustle spruce for airplanes.
In 1916 and 1917, while the an
nual output OF spruce and fir in
washington and Oregon was about
5,001, 200. 900 feet, Dtsque, in complete
charge, with all the power Of the
government behind him, great
force Of soldiers under his command,
reduced this production to less than
one thirtieth.
Disque gave s7o,ooo,Oo0 Of cost
plus contracts to contractors, most
of them without lumber experience
these contractors produced less than

one-twelfth of the lumber demanded
and received from Disque s1s.0o0.000

one twelfth of the lumber d0manooo
and received from DisQue $4,000 600
when, as the result Of the armistice,
their contracts were cancelled. al
tho they were also paid for the lum-
Der they actually produced.
Perhaps the worst part Of this
democrat isque fiasco' was the rail-
way construction Disque caused to
be constructed lis miles Of railroad,
on cost plus contracts, at a total ex-
pense of nearly s10,o0o.o00. The av-
erage cost Of five Of these roads,
covering seventy eight miles, was
100000 q mile, exclusive of rolling
stock The average cost Of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul. the
Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern roads, exclusive Of equip
ment, was from s37,50o to $4,000 a
mile.
When the I. w. w. struck to delay
production Major Sights testimony
is that it was represented to Secre-
tary Baker that detachment Of four
companies Of federal troops would be
sufficient to afford protection to the
loggers there, but that Secretary
Baker refused 20 permit troops to be
sent there for that purpose, and that
instead Mr.. Baker wired the lumber
men, advising them to yield to- the
demands Of the 4. w. WIS. He stated
that not to exceed fifteen or twenty
per cent Of the men were I. w. VS.,
that the remained er wanted to work
and would do so if afforded proteC-
ton; and that as result of Mr..
Bakers refusal to give this protection
and of the strike, the production OF
spruce was cut Sc 2-3 per cent; that
is from 100000 to 100000 feet per
month, during August and Septen-
Der.

What punishment did Disaue re-
ceive for the delay and utter inef-
fiency. He received from the demo-
crat administration the Distin-
guished Service Medal and the rank
OF hrigadier general. An appreciative
president and Baker "one of the
ablest public officials" In the acauain-
lance of democrat president.
It cost great sums. 1t cost life on
the battlefield The contractors got

slackers with "scruples' had their

1t is of record. Those who admire
and approve the record should vote
to continue a democrat administra-

l. Do birds ever move their nests?
Birds whose nests have been plum
dered sometimes pull the old nest to
pieces and use the material, or parts
OF it, in building new nest; but
can not believe that any pair Of birds
ever picked up a nest containing
eggs and carried it off to a new
place. How could they do it? With
ono on each side, how could they fly
with the nest between them?
2. What habit provoking to hunt
ers has the moose?
President Roosevelt in 1.-THE Wild
crness Hunter" says that the moose
has to the hunter the very provoke
ing habit of making half or three
quarters circle before lying down,
and then crouching with its head so
turned that 1t can surely perceive
any pursuer who may follow It's
trail"
3. Do pine woods differ in the
north and south?
A pine wood in Maryland or in
Virginia is quite a different thing
from a pine wood in Maine or Mime
sota-the difference, in fact, be-
tween yellow pine and white. The
former as it grows about the District
of Columbia, is short and scrubby,
with branches nearly to the ground.
and looks like the dwindling remnant
OF a greater race.

be received by the people OF Iowa
with full recollection Of the fact that

Iowa only because he had the support
Of majority Of the democrats OF
Iowa and after he was repudiated by
a considerable portion Of the fepub-

leading republicans Of the state as
a man unfit to be governor. More
over, he was nominated because

Since Adam staged his first rampage
And left behind old Dden's light,
The fakir has eclipsed the sage
And made his worthless brick seem
bright:
The green goods game is sadly
trite,
And yet the suckers always pay:
Few know enough to flee or fight,
The bunko holds it's might sway.
A politician mounts the stage,
Ills head is small, his brain is
slight:
lie pledges some stupendous wage,
A government OF peace and right.
AND many marvel at his might,
They vote for him and shout
"Hooray!"
And then he proves to be a bIfrht.
The bunko holds it's mighty sway.
a Ponzi builds gilded cage.
The victims rush in. day and night.
And then they cry in futile rage
And culver with q deadly fright:
The human fish will ALWAYS bite.
The human ass will always BRAY.
And none can help them in their
plight,
The ounko holds its mighty sway.
We think the world grows wise with
age,
That we are learning evry day;
But write this large on history's
page;
The bunko holds its mighty sway.
