FOUND IN OUR
EXCHANGES
Distributing Population.

President Harding in his recent
message to congress suggested a solu-
ton for many of u economic and
social ills, when he said that a better
distribution of our population would
do away with many evils. There is
no question as to the wisdom OF
his statement. People are jammed by
the millions into some of u cities
and states, while others are all too
thinly populated. Montana, for in
stance, is not taking care of one-fifth
of the people it could-and we feel
ourselves very conservative in max
ing this statement. The history of
almost every nation that attained
prominence of any sort is that de-
cadence set in after too many had
gone to the city. Thomas jefferson,
as we recall it, prophesied that the
United States would be no exception
to this rule and his vision already has
proved true to a large extent. The
thing that brings the people into the
cities and away from the country, of
course, is industry-manufacturing
textile working. The result is that
too large a proportion of u popu-
lation does not produce the things
we have to have to live. The balance,
of coure, is not as bad as yet as it
easily could be without too serious
consequences, but the trend is unmis-
taxable.
Too many factories and consequent
ly too many people are drawn to too
few places. The CONGESTION in New
York is unbelievable. Difficulties of
handling such dense masses of people
are taxing our ingenuity now and
may become absolutely unmanagea-
BILE in time. Transportation within
New York, for instance, and Chicago,
for that matter, already has become
a problem that is really beyond the
best engineering intelligence. 1t is a
highly difficult task to feed so large
a crowd, too, and the immediate
country even approximate this. Were
New York, Chicago, Boston and a
few more cities decimated and we're
this to be followed by the natural
growth of smaller factory commune
ties within reasonable range of the
markets they provide, the problems
of transportation and feeding would
be simplified and that, we imagine,
is what will come about.
The electric railroad provides the
formula for the solution of congested
population. Some day there will be
all through the industrial east and to
a lesser extent through the agricul-
tural west an endless series of cleo
trio roads connecting smaller factory
towns. The natural consequences will
be to draw farmers and truck raisers
to the immediate vicinities of all of
these places and in a way, this move
ment, which is not exactly back to
the farm but rather away from the
cities, will do much to bring about
the better balance that President
Harding sees as necessary.-Missou-
liam.

THE EVERLASTING GAME

Idaho is to be afflicted with a
Third Party movement backed by the
committee of 48.
The Nonpartisan League has been
unsuccessful in turning the state of
Idaho ver to a socialistic regime
and now this new organization which
styles itself the Liberal Party is 60
ing to see what it can do along those
lines by combining with the Non
partisans.
Leaders of the new organization
propose to organize thoroughly in
western states, according to John A..
Hopkins, national chairman of the
new party and head of the committee
of AZ.
Not a new proposition is handed
out by the promoters. They simply
thresh over old straw, talk about the
abolition of privileges, advocate pub
lie control of national
through single tax including land
containing coal, oil, natural gas, min
eral deposits, large water powers,
commercial timber tracts, etc., in or
der to prevent monopoly. Public own
ershfp Of railroads and everything
else that seems popular, and last but
not least, they ring in their advocacy
of equal rights, free speech" and
everything else that is already guar
anteed by our constitution.
Their program is actually so old
it smells and they arguments they
advance to back their program have
been worn threadbare and repudi-
ated by the people time after time.
Was Barnum right when he said
there was one born every minute. We
believe the Liberal" party will find
he was wrong in this case at least.

TAFT'S ALL-AMERICAN DECISION

Intimidation, obstruction, doggint
and importuning laborers is held I'm
lawful in the conduct of a strike, j:
the substance Of an opinion handed
down in the U. S. Supreme Court by
Chief Justice Taft.
Unanimous concurrence by eigh'
Justices makes the opinion most i'm
pressive and the decision sustains
the laws enacted against picketing ii
many states and is a great victory
for law and order.
The decision is one hundred pei
cent Americanism from the highest
tribunal in our country and will &C
far toward stabilizing industrial con-
ditions and rendering secure the
lives and property of workers.
The decision suggests that pickets
have the right of observation , COM
munication, and persuasion" but
where these limits are exceeded to
the point of intimidation the picket
ing becomes unlawful.
The case grew out of a strike at
the American Steel Foundries plant,
Granite City, ILL.,, which closed down
and re-opened as an open shop plant,
half it's employees belonging to labor
unions and one-half not.
The Tri-City Trades Council order
ed a strike which was attended with
a great deal of violence, street riot
ing, destruction of property and in
jury to persons of non-strikers. Just
ice Taft holds:
"Our conclusion is that picketing
thus instituted is unlawful and can
not be ~peaceable and may be properly
adjoined by the specific term of
'picketing', because it's meaning is
clearly understood in the sphere Of
the controversy by those who are
parties to IT.
"But while this is so, we must have
every regard for the congressional
intention manifested in the act and
to the principle of existing law which
declared that ex-employes and others
probably acting with them shall have
an opportunity, so far as is consist
ent with peace and law, to observe
who are still working for the employ
er, to communicate with them and to
persuade them to join the ranks of
his opponents in a lawful economic
struggle.
Regarding as primary the rights
of the employees to work for whom
they will, and to go freely to and from
their place of labor, and keeping in
mind the right of the employer in
cident to his property and business
to free access of such employees, what
can be done to reconcile the conflict
ing interests?
at becomes a question for the judg-
ment of the chancellor who has heard
the witnesses. The purpose should
be to prevent the inevitable intimi-
dation by the presence of groups of
pickets, but to allow missionaries"

other notch, discourages the growth
and development of banking institu-
tions, with resultant future loss in
legitimate tax revenue.
Moneys going into postal savings
banks 60 into tax exempt institutions,
thus loading the taxes in this manner,
onto remaining tax paying property.
Whenever the government goes
into business the public has increased
tax burden to carry. 1t is the public
which pays. heaviest in the long run,
not the institution which government
competition cripples. Think it over.

Sport Gossip
MAJOR LEAGUE BALL
BEGINS WEDNESDAY
(By Associated Press)


NEW YORK, April 11.-With vet
eran stars refurbished and new ones
preparing to flash across the baseball
armament, the major league season of
1921 opens on eastern and western dia-
monds Wednesday. While there will
be no changes in the well established
circuits of either the National or AM
erican leagues there will be many new
faces in the personnel of the 16 clubs
composing the two organizations.
With the call of the umpires send
ing the players away on their six
months pennant chase, the National
League will have inaugurated it's 46th
consecutive season as the senior asso-
citation clubs player their initial games
early in 1876. In the American league
it will mark the beginning Of the 22nd
season as the junior league was formed
in 1900.
Notwithstanding the unprecedented
popularity of baseball during the past
two years, club owners and league Of
ficials are firm in their belief that the
national sport is facing a still greater
preiod of prosperity in the months to
come and have made their plans ac-
cordingly. Larger training squads
went south this spring than in many
years and every effort has been made
to strengthen weak spots in both the
offensive and the defensive play of
the various clubs.

FARM $4,000 ACRES
BELOW THE BORDER
Especial TO The Press)

CALEXICO, April 11,-Farming
operations are starting below the bord-
er and from present indications more
than $4,000 acres of land will be under
cultivation there this year. This is
decidedly more than was expected
when the first survey was made of
conditions some weeks ago.
The Caruso tract of 5000 acres is
being planted to alfalfa and the plow-
ing operations there are in full swing.
The same is true on the lockwood
Walker tract where A. NJ. Shenk has
started work with large force and a
big equipment and this will be under
cultivation. The cotton still unpicked
there is being picked now by Rock
wood and Walker.
