they will bid fair price for them.
There is another little bit Of silver
lining to the cloud of depression and
that is the fact that 1t is most I'M
likely that there will be another ship
ment of frozen lambs from New Zea-
land. The British government owned
those frozen lambs that figured SO
largely in last years price fiuctua-
tions. It thought America the most
likely market for them and the pack
ers bought them. But they could
not induce the American people to
buy them at any price and were
forced to reship, them to foreign mar
kets at an enormous loss.

be given in the way Of prices for all
Of her products. Better conditions

Seventy-two Days
and Nothing Done
PUEBLO TO REBUILD
NOT DOWNHEARTED+

Every few years some American
city is swept by food, fire or earth
quake, it seems, Pueblo being the
most recent victim of the food dis
aster, and every time, the stricken
city with the spirit which has made
America the most progressive nation
in the world, has started in rebuild
ing with an undaunted spirit.
Pueblo is no exception to this rule,
not that we would expect 1t to be, the
COloradOans are a western and
hence a progressive people. Mon
days dispatches to The Post tell OF
the merchants in Pueblo putting up
signs that they were cleaning up. get
ting in shape and would soon be
ready for business; these encourage
ing stories were mingled with tales
of death in the streets and walls
washed out of business houses. All
congratulations should be extended
to Pueblo. , m

pie say better city will rise from
the ruins is the spirit which invari-
ably arises in the face of catas-

tinual progress, of working during
times of quiet, when most people
slumber that gets community
ahead.
The Post thru its campaign for a
condensed milk factory here has
evinced this spirit of progress and
shown its desire to ali the commun-
ity, as have also the citizens of the
city who have taken up the project
and sought to have factory placed
here, with the primary object of Sc
curing a. place where the farmers
would profit, but also a plant which
would add to the city's pay roll, thru
its employees.
The greatest example Of city's
spirit in the line OF rebuilding is not
to our mind the story OF Galveston,
which erected its gigantic sea wall
after the gulf storm there: neither is
It the story Of San Francisco, Dayton,
nor Johnstown, but that of Astoria,
Ore.

1914, Just before the war prosperity
begun, had started to raise itself

lar pleasure ground. Wolverine is a
beautiful canyon and valley fifteen
miles long, the precipitous part OF
the canyon being about five miles
long and the rest of the streams
length being rich in scenic beauty
Varying from q narrow valley oc-
cupied by ranches to narrow defile
reaching UP to the summit Of the
Wasatch range. y
The lower end of the Wolverine is,
by the roads, eighteen miles east
ward and little north from Black
foot, connected with the Yellowstone
highway by good graded roads that
are in fine condition. The most de-
lightful and enchanting part of the
canyon is twenty-three to twenty
six miles out from Blackfoot and its
sides are lined with perpendicular
cliffs that are crowned with pine
covered peaks decorated at this
time with spots of snow. The stream
rushing thru the canyon affords
brook trout, but the Modern Wood
men ask that visitors next Sunday
refrain from fishing, as it would be
unfair to the people living there to
have hundreds Of people come out
for pleasure and wipe out their stock
Of trout in day. 1t asks people to
refrain from entering fields and
treading upon the grass and other
crops. The whole valley and canyon
are open to the free use of the pub

for camping under the rules Of
forestry, but it is in no sense open
to spoilation or the raids of souvenir
hunters. The Blackfoot camp OF
Modern Woodmen guarantees to
keep the road in fine condition for

the city's business men got together

POINTING THE WAY

Klickitat man who has run sheep
for twenty-five years. Having
travelled of late by automobile, now
he suddenly discovers that motor We

to the pack horse.
The price of wool points the way,
of course, says the Oregonian.

(By Associated Press Leased Wire. }


St. Louis, acknowledgements of the
Democratic national committee into
the "most militant and efficient or
ganization" within it's capacity and dis
semination of facts concerning the
"short comings" of the present national
administration among the average
citizens is in brief to be the policy
of Cordell Hull, the new Democratic
chief as outlined today to the Asso-
ciated Press. Mr.. Hull expects to
leave late today for Washington, ar
irving there tomorrow evening.
The new chairman's policies are
briefly outlined in the following
statement:
The first step in administering the
affairs of the committee will be to
pay off the present Indebtedness and
create a good atmosphere in which
to work. We shall try to pay all debts
at an early date.
I'VE shall also proceed at once with
establishment of a systematic and
thorough organization in the various
states and countries. In this same
connection, we shall strive to main
tain an efficient publicity bureau to
get unbiased and accurate facts re-
lating to the short comings of the
Republican administration before the
average citizens.
people have been fed up on a vast
amount of misrepresentation, misin-
formation and falsehoods concerning
the true record of the Democratic
administration, covering the period
cince 1918. Subsequent events and
daily happenings have exploded vast
number of these falsehoods which at
times were very dangerous.

fort to develop the Democratic nation

efficient organization, within our pow
