AGUSTA, Me.-Republicans re-
tain their hold of the Third Maine
congressional district. The majority
is considerably less than the record
Republican vote of 1920, but it is
much more than in the years before
that.
With fifty-six small places miss
ing, returns today from the special
election showed that John E. Nelson,
Republican, was elected over Ernest
L. Mclean, Democrat, by majority
of 1894 votes. Nelson will fill the
unexpired term of John A. Peters,
who resigned to become judge for
Maine. In 1910 Peters majority
was 1927 votes. In 1918 Peters
won by 1868 votes; in 1916 by 81
654 and in 1914 by 1915 votes.
Both Nelson and Mclean ex-
pressed qualification over the result.

allied our markets, and the Federal
Reserve Act, the results of which
are being denounced by Democratic
leaders in booth houses of congress.

collected by the federal government
as grazing fees in the national

ceived.
The payment this year is smaller
than that for last year, $28,709
having been received last year.
The money will be apportioned by
the governor to the counties ac-
cording to the amount of forest
grazing collection in the counties.

WHAT is
THRIFT?

In the average Winnemucca mans
mind thrift means saving money.
In theory that is thrift, but in
practice it may be the reverse. For
thrift means getting the most for
your money by investing it in
things for which there is a present
use or future profit. Putting a
paddock on the pocket is not thrift.
That's stingyness.
If one can buy lot worth $500
for 5000, it is thrift to buy it. If
a suit of clothes which will be need
ed next fall can be bought for
$40 when it will cost $50 when next
fall arrives, then it will be thrift
to buy it. Thrift is taking advant-
age of opportunities in which there
is profit. 1t means keeping your
dollars everlastingly on the job
Thrift also means refraining from
useless expenditures that keep the
pocketbook so thin that investments
cannot be taken advantage of when
offered. Things should be bought
from the standpoint of use and
profit, and if there is no present
use and no profit in sight, don't
buy.
No matter what your defination
of thrift may be, when it is care
fully studied and analysed and
boiled down, it simply means get
ting ready for the big opportunity
and hoping it will come. And get
ting ready for the big opportunity

BOULDER CANYON
WINS APPROVAL

Unqualified approval of the
Boulder canyon site for the primary
storage and control of the waters
of the Colorado river was voiced
by Secretary of the Interior Hoover
for the first time, after he had
viewed the proposed site, in South
ern Nevada, according to State En-
gineer j. G. Scrugham who arrived
here this morning after attending
the Phoenix and Los Angeles meet
ings of the Colorado river commits
sion, says the Gazette.
Until Hoover made this western
trip with the commission he had al
ways declared that he was non-com-
initial so far as the location of the
dam was concerned and it took con-
siderable work on the part of the
Nevada delegation to secure Hoov-
er's consent to visit Nevada at all.
Train connection from Phoenix to
Las Vegas were so bad that it was
necessary to arrange for a special
car to carry Hoover and his party
from Arizona to Nevada and he
spent the day there.
At Las Vegas he expressed gen.
eral approval of the Nevada plan
for supervision and construction OF
the dam, which, in brief, is to have
private companies or municipal cor
porations bid for the power rights
and carry out construction.
"The visit of Secretary Hoove,
to Boulder canyon greatly clarified
the Colorado river situation" said
Mr.. Scrugham. ''He expressed un-
qualified approval of the Boulder
canyon site for the primary storage
unit, favored by the Nevada line
procedure in general and | believe
that the entire matter will be
Strengthened out to the entire sat
isfaction of this state.
utah and Colorado are opposing
the project because they fear that
their water rights on the river may
be endangered but l believe that
this opposition will be overcome to a
considerable extent and better un-
derstanding secured at the Salt
Lake and Denver meetings."
Mr.. Hoover, who is now in Palo
Alto, will pass through here Sum-
day morning on his way to Salt
Lake City. He will be joined here
by Col. Scrugham, who will attend
the Salt Lake City and Denver
meetings of the commission. Gov
Boyle remained in Los Angeles for
day and is expected to return
tomorrow.

PERFORMANCE
MIDDLE NAME

A newspaper of Rome criticizes
the United States for non-partici-
patton in the Genoa meeting, say
ing that "the United States tries
to make its own political and finan-
cial interests predominant" If par
ticipation in the Genoa conference
wouold mean making those interests
subordinate to European influence,
the charge states the exact truth.
OF course America wants to keep
its interests predominant, which it
has a perfect right to do, being
the richest and most powerful ma
ton in the world. But such a
policy does not necessarily include
selfishness. American resources
have been extensively devoted to
the rehabilitation of Europe. The
difference is that they have been
employed under American, rather
than European direction.

THE CAPITALISTIC
PROBLEM

The so-called "labor group" in
the Manitoba legislature recently
called meeting to consider the
unemployment situation and adopt
ed resolutions "condemning the
present capitalistic system" 1t is
fortunate that this is not the at
titude of labor in general.
If we are to have employment
there must be employers We cam
not have employers unless men have
saved something from their earnings
and use that saving in the purchase
of equipment enabling them to en-
ploy others to assist them. No
man wants to employ others to
assist him unless he is making
profit by thus using his savings.
The man who is not permitted to
make profit by thus using his
savings will either hide them away
or put them into non-taxable and
non-productive securities, in either
event diminishing the amount of
employment.
There we have the whole cap
italistic" problem in few words.
Everybody knows that there are
lot of men who never can make
a success of working for themselves
because they are poor managers.
Their work is either done at a
great disadvantage or Is entirely
fruitless unless they work under
the direction of other men who have
a better knowledge of the task
or who attend to the proper per-
Torrance of the work with higher
degree of attention. The careless,
the thoughtless, the inept, we shall
always have with us, and, in order
to utilize their work to the best
advantage, such men must work
under the supervision of men OF
initiative, skill and energy. If every
youth refused to be an apprentice,
we could never have skilled work
men, and without skilled workmen
there would be no progress in in
dustry. More than that, without
saving some of the profits, thus
creating capital, there could be no
employment of the unskilled under
the supervision of the skilled, be-
cause of the lack of tools, mater
ial, shops, selling agencies, adver-
Using, etc.
Condemning the first essential
of employment is poor way to
solve the problem of unemploy-
ment.
It must be noted, however, that
the Manitoba "labor group" offered
a solution for the unemployment
situation-to have the government
provide work for the unemployed
at regular wages. But this is man
ifestly no solution at all, for the
government must get its funds
through taxes and the taxes must be
collected from capital. If capital is
to be destroyed, the government
will have no one from whom to
collect taxes, and it will have no
money with which to pay any
wages.
Confiscation or humiliation of
capital has been tried out in Rus
STA, and it did not work to the
satisfaction Of anybody. We ought
to be able to read the lesson
without learning it with our own
dear experience.
