To Abolish Apple Pie

ABOLISH the apple pie? That would be a calam-
n ity to a lot of eminently respectable folks. Yet
that is exactly what is advocated by a Massachu.
sets lady named CLARK speaking at a statewide
farmers convention. In support of her contention
Sister CLARK maintains that Apple pie is hard to
make and hard to digest"
Being n native of New England the good lady
ought to know something about pie, and in the sud
den determination she has shown to rid the world
OF apple pie, it would have been no more than fair
treatment to apple pie caters to specify a little
more infinitely as to Just what sort of apple pie she
condemns. There is no doubt that a lot of ii ought
to be fed to the hogs instead of offered TO confiding
human beings. The kind Of apple pie that the
CLARK lady refers TO in her campaign of extermina-
ton, is doubtless the culinary combination which is
built on a foundation of soggy pasteboard with a
layer of half-cooked sour apples as the filling, the
sinks down over the Jumps of hard apples present
ing a perfect relief map Of the Rocky Mountain
region. If it is this variety of apple pie, more
power to Mrs. CLARK's propaganda.
But on the other hand, if the militant sister has
any designs on a certain artistic CONNECTION with
a light faky brown crust and known and recognized
the world over as real apple pie, the reform cam
|paign will fail because the pie biters' union will
revolt, and this union has a tremendous voting
strength.
A move Of the character started by Mrs. CLARK
may make tome Roadway in Massachusetts, because
apple pie is not indigenous to the New England
climate and a shrewd move to protect the sacred
baked beans, doughnuts and pumpkin pie of our
Yankee ancestors is seen in Sister CLARK's effort.
When news of the CLARK movement reaches the
country west of the Hudson river prepare for a
season of stormy protests.

Groundless Fears

THE Cheyenne Tribune is much ex-
l. ercised for fear Some Republican state newspa-
pers will drop some harsh word about some Repub-
lican candidate during the primary campaign that
will cause the loss of a nights sleep on the part of
the gentleman who has offered himself for analysis
as TO fitness for public employment. The fear is
more alarming because, as the Tribune says, the
opposition newspapers will take advantage of any
unfavorable expression, magnify il and use 1t later
in the election campaign should the candidate in
question, perchance, be the Republican nominee.
The Cheyenne contemporary is one of the news
papers in the state that pretends never TO have a
choice among or between candidates for the same
office. 1t poses during a primary campaign as non
combatant and neutral. This, so far as editorial
expression goes. Yet, in the present primary sea
son, as in past ones its news pages and its adver-
Using pages tell a far different story. The news
columns reflect the sentiment of the paper in place
of the editorial columns; and as for the advertising
pages almost everything goes. Matter is accepted
and published rejecting upon candidates an.i more
likely to bring a realization of the Tribune's fears
of use by the opposition press, than if that news
paper had the courage to express an editorial opin-
jon, or the sand to publish a news account that told
the truth instead of camouhaged the facts.
There is nothing gained by pussyfooting in n
matter where the public is concerned. The public
is entitled to know, and the newspaper is unfaith-
full TO its trust if it does not tell its readers what
it knows and what it fears before the primary
rather than after the election.
1t is a whole lot better to sweep up your own
dooryard than to have your n%eighbors do it for you.
In politics, as in many other ventures in life,
blows are given and taken and no one of sense or
experience in politics ever suspected it of being a
perfectly ladylike game or that nobody but angels
participated.
The fears of the Cheyenne Tribune are visionary.
Nothing will happen in the Wyoming primary to
mar the sweet accord that prevails. No one will
wantonly assault the personal character of a can
didate. If he is unfit the public will know it, with
out the newspaper flushing its columns with cess
pool material.

decry patriotism as the greatest of vices. They are
trying to influence congress to withhold appropria
tons for the army and navy and TO discredit and
discourage all rational preparations for national
defense, At the same time they arc insidiously or
openly inculcating principles subversive of demo
cratic government and provocative of class warfare.
As we have formerly pointed out, they do nothing
to abate the causes of war, while they strive to un-
fit the nation for maintaining peace. II Is not war
but democracy 10 which they are opposed; it is not
peace but decentralization, socialism, bolshevism.
that they are seeking to establish. Pollok has re
minded us of a man
Who stole the livery of the court OF Heaven
to serve the Devil in.
There are those who appropriate the phrases
and the sentiments of peace for the abhorrent pur-
poses of war, or of those things which are as GER
tain to lead to war as the rivers are TO run into
the sea. The real animus and intent of those who
conceived the 'No more war!' slogan is ~No more

The Slogan of DeIusion

GNO MORE WAR is the latest slogan of delu-
" sion, states the Boston Transcript. 1t is a
noble sentiment. Every right-thinking person must
wish that it might be fulfilled; must indeed strive
for its fulfllment. But like other counsels of per-
lection, it is not automatically selfexecuting.
Demetrius could rouse the mob to howl "Great is
Diana of the Ephesians!' for the space of two hours
at a stretch; but that did not make Diana great,
nor prevent her temple from being destroyed.
Neither will shrieking "No more war!" establish
perpetual peace. On the contrary, the spirit and
the manner in which this cry is being raised is al
most inevitably calculated to provoke the very dis
aster which it purports to deprecate.
Six years ago the country was deluded and Sc
duced by another slogan: He kept us out of war!"
The sequel was that We were very soon plunged
into war, unprepared. 1t is notorious that that
slogan, promptly reported to Germany, greatly en-
couraged that criminal power not only to persist
in the war but also to wage it more ruthlessly. 1t
is also notorious that, in order to give the thing a
semblance of sincerity the administration which by
that specious means was seeking a second term of
power, Systematically refused and discouraged all
preparation for the war which every rational man
knew was inevitable. There is no exaggeration in
saving that because of that lying slogan, thousands
of Young Americans are now in soldiers graves.
Six years ago; and history repeats itself. The
slogan mo more war!" is just as insincere and just
as pernicious as that Of "He kept us out of war"
Just as the campaign cry of 1916, by encouraging
our enemies and weakening ourselves, made war for
US all the more certain and all the more costly, SO
this later cry is calculated to foster the influences
and processes which lead to war, and at the same
time to unfit this nation and all who are deluded by
it for preventing war or for dealing with it efec-
lively when it comes. No doubt there are many
good people among those who are propogating it.
So there were many good people six years ago, cry
ing "He kept us out of war!" But good people, "as
common mortals," are not exempt from delusion and
error.
The fact is, as Mr.. S. STANwooD MESKEN said in
his letter TO the editor of the Transcript the other
day, the NO more war" movement is, to a large e1-
tent. part of a plan of internationalists and parlor
socialists, many of them of bolshevist origin. to
spread their theories of internationalism and to

Know and RESPECT Him

Turing L of his business career, JOHN HAY
IL has employed labor. On railroads, on ranches,
on the range, in the coal business, in the oil fields
and in every enterprise in which he has engaged,
There is one outstanding fact in connection with
the employment of labor by JOHN HAY. He has
never had the slightest controversy with his men.
No strikes, no dissatisfaction, no disagreements of
any kind. Pay has always been at the top notch.
Conditions have been the best circumstances would
allow and always satisfactory to the men. Hours
have been regulation, under the law, specified in
the agreement or understood verbally.
No man has ever worked for JOHN HAY who had
an unkind word to say about him when his EN-.
ployment ceased. Thousands Of men will testify to
Mr.. HAYS absolute fairness, liberality and humane
consideration. These same men will testify to his
knowledge of the work under way and his judgment
and skill in accomplishing it in the best and most
economical manner.
Railroad men, mine workers and union labor off
Gals all over Wyoming have the highest respect
for JOHN HAY, and a good word to say in his be-
half.
1t has been so for a period Of thirty years. That
is quite a long time. 1t is a recommendation good
enough for any man in business for that many years.

The Essence of Bolsheuism

EROM II beginning of civilization the acquire
ment of a profit has been the stimulus which has
induced men TO work, TO endure and to save. The
hope of laying aside a competence during the days
of health and strength and activity as a means of
sustenance in the years of decline and old age, has
impelled men to give up their comfort and ease
while they strive to take from the soil that which
directly or Indirectly will sustain them in the pres
ent and the future. 1t is the hope of the larger re-
ward that induces men to prepare themselves for
something more than unskilled labor, that induces
them to save and invest their savings, that causes
them not only to utilize their own personal ability
and efforts but also to accumulate capital which
will enable them to give employment to others,
Service without profit is the ideal of the bolshe-
visit and he resorts to arms to force the rendering
of the services. He confiscates all the products of
the farm not needed for the immediate sustenance
of the life of the tiller of the soil. Acting upon
the same theory of economics, the bolshevist gov
eminent confscated the factories, which represent
ed the profits of men who had toiled for years and
saved a portion of the product of their toll in order
to utilize it in the establishment of industrial insti-
buttons which would furnish employment for large
nubmers of men. Confscation meant destruction,
and, as a consequence, lack of production is the
great trouble in Russia today.
