NATIONAL wealth The money advanced will all be re-
paid with interest
The proposition is national in scope. As the west
and south increase in agricultural production, the
north and east viii increase in industrial production.
1t will not reduce farm values in the cast and mid
die west
The world is not troubled with overprotucHon, but
underconsumption. As soon a. world conditions are
restored there will be an abundant demand for all we
can produce. Furthermore, the late war proved the
necessity Of the country being sef-sustaining rs TO its

ter of employment and settlement to those who have

States but it will offer opportunities for our young
men to secure homes and continue ~proftably in aqi

Our country, having adopted 4 policy Of no fu-Sner
territorial expansion, should develop the vast, lands
within its own borders.
The north and eas. should welcome the opportunity
to assist in the upbuilding Of the west and south. es-
peeially when they would add to their OWE prosperity
thereby.
The bill win have a strong appeal to Wyoming peo-
pie and its enactment would revive industry and bust
ness and reduce unemployment in every part of the
country where its provisions are applied.

As we understand the matter, this whole earth is
just : temporary abiding place and our permanent
home and real property rights are elsewhere. It may
be recalled that the first family set up in the Garden
~sirnbility" clause were dispossessed. Later on patents
and titles came into vogue and then landlords and ten
ants and high rents and all the other blessings and dis
comforts that have pursued civilization throughout its
progress to the present day.
There was a time in history when tenants prayed
for landlords. II was a beautiful custom. It may net
have been any more effective than the present style
OF eursins them, yet it was much more polite and in
better taste.
1t was in the day Of Edward VI back in 1547-1553
that tenants prayed for landlords, for in the prayer
book of that monarch among the "Sundry Cody
PRAYERS for Divers Purposes" is found this appeal;
I'VE heartily pray Thee TO send Thy Holy Spirit
into the hearts of them that possess the grounds and
pastures of the earth, that they, remembering them
the rents of their houses or lands, nor yet take I'M
reasonable fines or moneys, after the manner of covet-
Gus worldlings. but NAV so let them out that the in
habitants thereof may be able to pay the rents and to
live. and nourish their families and remember the
poor.
"Give them grace also TO consider that they, too, are
but strangers and pilgrims in this world, having here
no dwelling place, but seeking one to come; that they,
remembering the short continuance of this life, may
be content with that which is sufficient. and not join
house to house and land. to land, to the impoverish-
ment of others, but may so behave themselves in let
ting their tenements, lands and pastures that after this
life they may be received into everlasting habitations.
Amen"
II is advised that if tenants of the present day have
failed to reach the hearts of their landlords by other
methods they might try one little quiet prayer. 1t
could do no harm and if the landlord ever found it
out the chances are he would not be very greatly dis
pleased.

COMPREHENSIVE RECLAMATION POLICY.

Senator Charles L McNary Of Oregon, chairman of
the senate committee on irrigation and reclamation,
is the author of a bill now before congress establish
ing a comprehensive national policy for the reclama-
ton Of waste lands throughout the country which
should become the law.
The title of the bill defines generally its purposes
and is, "To encourage the development of agricultural
resources of the United States through federal and
state cooperation, giving preference in the matter of
employment and the establishment of rural homes to
those who have served with the military and naval
forces of the United States"
Briefly, the provisions include, appropriation of
$3.50. 900, 600. Districts are formed after investiga-
of lands by irrigation, drainage or dikage in any
state, with authority to issue bonds against the land
within the district and to contract with The United
States to build the works. Prices and terms for the
land passing into hands of settlers to be fixed in adj
vance and to be paid to the government by 4o-year
five per cent bonds. Units of land not to exceed 100
acres. In the construction work veterans of the wars
with Germany and Spain are to be given preference
and likewise in the sale and entry of the land veter-
ans have the exclusive right for a period of sixty days
to make entry or otherwise acquire the lands.
In its arguments the irrigation committee states the
necessity Of a permanent and constructive policy of
reclamation. The amount of money to be appropri-
ated and the projects to be undertaken is subject to
the approval of congress.
The lands subject to irrigation are lying idle and Of
no value, the waters necessary to reclaim them run
ming to waste. Those subject to drainage, in the same
condition-an Inconvenience to transportation and a
menace to health. When reclaimed, both win add vast
1y to the taxable wealth of the several states.
The reclamation department, highly efficient, with a
splendid record of performance in the past, can
achieve even greater results il given the funds neces-
sary for continuous operation, as provided for in this
bill.
There are practically no moro public lsnds IN tMe
UIdted States, in their present state, subject to en-
try, that can be ~proftably farmed.
The funds under this act will revolve, and, there
fore, continuously furnish new lands for settlers, the
productivity of which is about double that Of our best
farming lands, not subject to irrigation and drainage.
The government is merely assisting to create new

The Witch of the
Wanderlust
E. S. MOORE,
26S South Center S.

There is a witch that walks tho earth.
and a wicked witch is she:
She binds a man at the brink of birth
and does not set him free;
She draws him away from the beaten
path and drives him in her own
And il the fool incurs her wrath, she
wears him to the bone.
She tnlses no heed of the signs he
heaves, nor the friends that he
leaves behind;
It's nothing TO her that a maiden
grives who thought him more
than kind:
It's nothing to her that a mother
waits by the side OF a dying flame
For her son to pass within the gates
and utter once her name.
She knows her power Is the strongest
power than can shackle the sou
OF a man;
She grapples him IN a careless hour
and molds him to her plan.
She gives him little to cat by day
and much to dream by night
And then, at last. she throws him
away and takes the next in sight
