OIL AND CONSCIENCE

Because the present government
of Mexico is about to guarantee
protection of oil property and
stir about taking her into the con-
course Of nations as beloved sis
ter or something. Judging from
the recent press dispatches regard
ing the activities of the Mexican
officials they are about as near the
ideals Of civilizati ton as the Bolshe
viks were in their recent widely
heralded killings Of clerygmen.
II tolerance, bigOtry and slavery
of conscience by law is a mark of
government stability, dignity and
intelligence Mexico should by all
means be admitted to the inner
councils of the great nations of the
earth, but these were not consd-
cred attributes of ideal govern
ment in the days when the found
crs of this country were drifting
over here in sail boats, voluntary
outcasts from their native lands.
The fog of gross materialism has
so enveloped the ideals of many of
US that we have entirely lost sight
of just a few of the fundamentals
of good government. To judge a
government mainly by the manner
in which it treats oil or other
great property interests would be
subtly humorous if it were not so
conscientiously advocated. - Kill

STABILIXITG WHEAT PRICES
HAD STRONG ADVOCATES

The National Wheat Conference
a. Chicago will be a disappoint-
ment to many wheat growers and
u others whose business depends
upon profitable price in the rails
ing and sale of the crop. But the
convention disclosed a strong SEN
tmGat tor stabilizing the price of
wheat.
The first problem is to reduce
NE present surplus, and various
experiments were proposed to this
end. Resolutions expressed the
views of a majority Of those taking
part in the discussion, but the dis
cuSsior itself shows the sentiment
OF a large minority, favoring fixed
price by the federal government;
as a Stabiljzing measure.
One way to reduce the surplus of
wheat. according to the resolution,
vas to feed the grain to live stock,
to hogs and poultry. This is a
proposition that has all the inhu
name features ascribed to the
farmers who propose to reduce
production of the worlds most ne
Cc9 AIRY food.
Increase of beth foreign and do
nestle consumption is a legitimate
remedy and the people Of the Unit
ed States could beautifully eat
much more wheat. The advocates
Of no actual reduction in wheat
raising evidentally had control of
he convention, and what the wheat
farmer himself will realize from
the conference is yet a matter of
houbt. But the convention will
help develop a sentiment that may
yet reach the next congress and
cause that body of pol ticians to act
in Il definite way to stabilize wheat
prices, and to control. production,
~ order to prevent abuse of the
protection.
The plan of Congressman Young
and others Of North Dakota for a
fxed price, coming as a remedy
direct from the wheat raisers and
business men of this state, had
many supporters, but not enough
to get by the clever and active OPP
position of those who make money
in handling the wheat crop after it
leaves the farmers hands. -

the girl called Paula.
No longer is she one that men
might call beautiful.
Turned l have all my mirrors that
I may not look into the sad eyes of
the Paula who is here today-they
make the heart Of me ache so hard.
A friend to me said the other day,
"You must have many letters from
Jacques. OF money you are much in
need. Why do you not sell them
back to him? He would doubtless

ADVENTURE OF

place the jack-knife had told them
they would find Nancy's lost doll.

Nancy stopped, too amazed to
take another step.

she was about ready to cry. -
