NEWS AND COMMENT

At blowing demonstration held
at Fargo. North Dakota, week OF
so ago it was decided that to ploW
with tractors is cheaper than to plow
with horses. 1t was fair trial Tor
the tractor, all right. 1t lasted about
four days and more blowing per morse
power was done by the tractors than
could be done per each head OF horses
and the expense was estimated at
considerably less.
The only fair way to conduct such
a contest would be to take dozen
farmers, half of them with tractors
and half with horses, and let them run
on a series of three or five years
The average working life of horse
is about ten years but who has
tractor which has stood the strain
that long?
Some farmer cannot successfully
run tractor. They could not make
money with them if they were given
the first machine and all the expense
necessary would be to keep it in re-
pair, fuel and oil. The sooner farm
er of that kind quits the tractor bust
ness the better it IS for him
The Near East relief is again re-
ceiving attention, but it is the Rus
SLAMS who are doing the most of the
calling for help this time. Those who
have sought to manage the Russian
governne nt on a sociaIistic basis have
failed and the inhabitants of that
country are gong to starve to death
unless there is food sent from the
United States. Other nations are I'M
able to handle the job.
The socialist ideas might not fail
as quickly in the United States as
they have in Russia but they would
not last much longer. Those IN
charge of the Russian government
socialized everything and no farmer
could sell or hafe in his possession
more wheat or farm produce thar
would be necessary to sustain life in
his family until another crop could
be raised. There was hope fol
profit or gain and the farmers quit
producing crops or anything else
hence the famine. If there was nc
hope for financial gain the American
farmer would also stop producing
more food stuff than his family could

use.


The socialist ideas are all right as
theories but lose their attractiveness
as soon as they are put into practice.
It has been definitely decided that
Camp Funston viii not be preserved
but that the buildings viii soon be
sold to private parties and the his
toric camp obliterated. The govern
ment spent many HUNDREDS of thous-
ands of dollars to get the camp ready
for few months of use but 1T will
not likely get more than few thous-
and dollars for the entire outfit Thus
the costs of war-continue to accumu-
late.
Rattlesnake oil is said to be good

The cities along the route of the
! old Golden Belt highway north and
west of Oakley are complaining on ac-
count of travel having fallen off
through their territory since the
marking of the u. P. Highway. They
claim that Oakley is diverting the
traffic, but Oakley is not doing it.
The diversion commences at Kansas
City and continues all along the way
through Kansas. The traveller gets in
the habit of following the line of the
white poles and when he gets to Oak
ley he just can't help following it on
west The U. P. Highway is the short
route and is being well patronized.

BABY MODS IN COLORADO.

For the second time within recent
months, Colorado furnishes an in
stance Of mob action by public
school students. Not long ago a
group Of boys beat a fellow pupil to
death, and the story comes now
from another small Colorado town,
OF a 10-year-boy being the victim of
a lynching party composed Of school
associates. A policeman cut his
body down and saved his rfe.
The first impulse upon hearing of
such crimes as these is to demand
drastic punishment for the offenders.
That they are in need Of severe chas-
tisement Ia certain. 1t ought to be
made a memorable occasion for the
youthful lynchers. as it has been for
the 1O-year-old victim.
But let's not lay all the blame on
the young students. A little reflec-
ton Will show that they are merely
responding to the environment of
the day. Lawlessness Is epidemic.
Not only are bank. and postal rob-
bers, holdup men and murderers the
principal characters before the pub
hc today, but every few days a mob
in some part of the country wreaks
vengeance upon a victim, who may
or may not be guilty of some Of
Tense, which arouses the ire Of the
community.
While such widespread disrespect
for law and order prevails. is it not
too much to expect that such con-
ditions Will not react upon the
minds Of the children?
But when small school children
begin to ape their elders in barbar-
Gus practices, isn't it about time for
the people Of this country to begin
to take the question of law1essness
and social disintegration seriously
and go about repairing the break
down in moral responsibility. in
earneSt2
An attempted lynching by child
rem ought 10 be a solemn warning OF
the perilous days ahead. if this form
of lawfessness and anarchy is not
put down.
1t is a challenge to the construc-
tive forces Of the country-the
home. the church, the school. the
courts-to cooperate in intoxicating
a high sense Of individual response
bihty, and in mObihzing a healthy
public sentiment, which will make
life and property more safe.

CARLO FABBRI Is
ARRESTED AGAIN
p r o m i NJ Republican is
Served With Federal
Warrant.

A warrant charging unlawful pos
session OF liquor was served on
Carlo Fabbri 332 W. Sixth st, by a
federal prohibition agent, Friday.
Very little information could be OBJ
tanned concerning the details Of the
charge. but II is understood that
government agents have been in
vesugating Fabbri's record for
some time and his arrest does not
come as a surprise.
The accused man has been in the
clutches OF the law a number of
times on a similar charge, but up
until last November he escaped
with a light fine on each occasion.
At that time Special Judge Harvey
". Jones found him guilty and SEN
fenced him to 80 days in the county
jail, together with a fine of 500.
