PIONEER DAY AT STATE FAIR

Encouraged by the success and
large attendance of Pioneers Day at
last years state fair, Miss Eunice G..
Anderson, state historian, Is arrang-
ing a very attractive program for
this year, which will two days
meetings. instead of one. as last
year.
Prominent among old timers who
has consented to come and deliver an
address at one of the meetings, Is
William Francis Hooker, author and
publisher. Of New York City.
Mr.. Hooker was in Wyoming in
the early seventies, coming az . boy
in his teens in search of health,
which he found in abundance while
"whacking bulls for several years
" the mountains and plains OF the
unsettled territory. .
After leaving Wyoming, Mr..
Hooker became a reported and later
an editor in various cities of the
east. He contributes articles to
magazines and is the author of a
book, 1.-THE Prairie Schooner" largely
devoted to overland transportation
and adventures in Wyoming in terri
torial days. Another book, Branded
Men and Women" Is being publish
ed.
Mr.. Hooker has never been back
to Wyoming since he left many
years ago and is taking this oppor-
tunity to visit the scenes Of his bull
whacking" days. He say he has
lived to be sixty-five years old be-
cause he came to Wyoming at the
right time.
He recently wrote a letter to a
western friend in which he indicated
hat the call OF the wild" was still
strong within him. In it he said in
part:
II tell you, dear old Bear Tracks.
nc wild canyon of the hills, no desert
plain. no mountain top. no cave in
a rockbound coast is as lonely to
people Of our kind al a metropolitan
street with its Indifferent throng.
Like the prisoner peering through
the bars to catch a glimpse Of the
morning sun we grab at every ray Of
light that comes out of the free and
glorious west"
"Bullwhacking In Wyoming" will
be the subject of MI. Hooker's ad.
dress at the Pioneers meeting at the
State Fair, September IA and IS.

Secretary Mellon warns that un-
less $3.50, 100000 can be cut from
expenditures as they were provided
for by Congress in the appropriations
for the present fiscal year. the reve-
nues will have to be increased by
additional taxation. But Cen.
Dawes, in close cooperation with the
heads of departments and bureaus. is
making rapid strides towards a real
ization of that saving. The country
has reason to believe. that not only
will NO nor revenue be needed for
this year, but that taxes may be sub
stantially cut for the fiscal year
1922.

WORD FROM
WASHINGTON
Officers All

WASHINGTON. Aug. IS. - (Spe-
cial correspondence).-The Senate
Military Affairs Committee has held
hearings on the bill introduced by
Senator Holm o. Bursum of New
Mexico giving disabled emergency
officers of the Regular Army. A
delegation of wounded men who
served as officers in the war ap-
peared before the committee in be-
half of the measure. as did Capt.
Victor Heintz, former Republican
Congressman from Ohio. The latter

commended that there was a contract
in the selective service act giving
emergency officers the same retire
ment benefits that go to those of the
regular army. The men affected by
Senator Bursum's bill would be re-
serve officers, officers of the national
guard and national army. and offic-
ers promoted from the ranks for
bravery.

Real Value of Merchant Fleet

Chairman Lasker of the Shipping
Board is confident that the wreck"
of our merchant marine may be turn
ed into a great national asset IL the
country and the press will only be
patient. The maintenance OF the
American merchant marine at its
present size will be worth in money
value all OF the $4,000 .OOO. 900 that
the war cost us. in the opinion of
Mr.. Lasker. Both that we may have
our boats to carry our trade when
and where we need them" says he,
and are not at the mercy OF the for
eign nations who will shut us off
from boats when trade gets good and
kill off u commerce. and because Of
the profit in International business
In the freights, we have to keep up
this merchant marine" The real
value Of the fleet is not alone intrin-
sic. it is in the freedom that it gives
the United States to control its own
foreign trade in time of peace, and
to transport its troops and supplies
in time Of war.

European debtor cannof ge; the
money unless he sells goods. in
America or elsewhere, and the inter
national %tinancier is not particular
where he sells the goods. He is
willing that the $50 foreign commod-
ity be sold in America. the money
either sent to Europe or placed to the
credit of European industry in this
country, and Their transferred to his
own account in payment of the debt
due him. Undoubtedly the in%terna-
tional tinancier is sorry t. see the
producer Of the 500 American COM

a case of me First" The interna-
tional financier would rather have
his money and let the American
producer do the worrying.
1t is perfectly plain why the i'm
porters and International financiers

question too deep for US. You'll

The manufacturers Record, a non-
partisan periodical published at Bal
timore. edited by a Democrat, but
advocating a protective tariff, wants
to know why protection Of Amer
lean industry should be subordinated
to the interests Of importers and in
ternational financiers by the daily
press of New York. OF course the
Record is speaking of the daily press
of New York City, and not Of the
state.
1t is easy to understand why the
importers OF New York City, and
they are many. should oppose a pro-
tective tariff. II 1t costs 500 to pro-
duce a certain commodity in the
United States and only $50 to pro-
duce a similar article in Europe, the
importer buy the article made
abroad, sell 1t for $50 in this coun-
try. run the American producer out
Of business, and put $39 in his own
pocket. That is the very plain rea-
son why the importer is willing to
subordinate American industry to
his W interest.
The international fnancier has a
less direct but none the less real in
terest. The International inancier
has loaned money abroad, or sold
goods abroad on credit, and he finds
the foreign debtor unable to pay i'm

Freight rates are high and people
are justly asking that they be low
cred. But in days zone by, freight
rates were lower than they should
have been and the representatives of
the people who had control OF rates,
did not advance them in proportion
to the increase in prices Of commod-
tiles and other services. That is the
real reason why freight rates are
now out of proportion. II freight
rates had gone up along with other
rates. they could have come down
along with other rates.
