TOWN FIRES VS FOREST FIRES

Why does such large part of the public become so excited over the changing of a gong or the shriek of siren announcing a fire in town or city, and only idly wonders why heavy smoke pail blankets many sec tions of the country during the summer sea- son?
 Why does the average individual not in quire with the same concern regarding the causes of destructive forest fires as he does about the causes of town or city fire that does only fractional part of the damage?
 Why does the average individual in for est region not feel more keenly his respon- abilities as a citizen, first to prevent des- tructive forest fires and, second to help control them; whereas, if fire occurred in town he would be the first to grab buc- ket of water and mount the ladder?
 Forestry officials are now at Lawing where special instructions in fighting for est fires will be given the guards who will be stationed this season in this district. Citii zens of this region have been warned for months that the forest fire outlook for this year is bad owing to mild weather which prevailed throughout the entire winter
 It is the duty of every citiezn, when he enters the confines of the Chugach National Forest, never to forget for one moment, to use every measure of precaution to safe guard against fire from spreading. Let's be extra careful this year!

 Men who would shy at government own ership or operation of natural resources such as oil power, shipping, transportation, are seriously urging government owner ship and control of our natural thoughts and emotions
 This seems to present the apex of blue nose philosophy.
 As such it may serve a useful purpose. It may give the country clear idea of the absurd height we are headed for, if we do not curb our tendency to regulate the

Not only Stewards boydom but the older inhabitants as we'll, are looking forward to the opening of the local baseball season. The keen local interest displayed in this wholesome sport is an encouraging sign.
 With regard to the boys it is likely that the lessons of good sportmanship and of self-control taught on the ball diamond of Seward will stand the youngsters in hand for the rest of their lives.

ONE EFFICIENT U. $. SERVICE

Ask the average American business man to take ride with you in an airplane and the chances are he'll fidget a bit and make some excuse.
 But ask the same man to enJTUSt a valu- able letter or parcel to the government air mail service for delivery and the chances are he'll do 1t without second thought
 Among the enviable records set by dif- ferent branches Of our government service, none is quite so impressive as that Of the air mail
 There are few accidents The mails get thru.
 The government, we hear, Is trying hard to serve American business If 1t does this as well in other ways as it does with the air mail, American business owes it a big debt

WHOOPS TO Clasps

Strong-lunged members of the Republican Par
ty are clearing their Threats and raising the pros
perity cry for all they are worth in effect to at
tract attention away from the cold facts and figures
the Democrats are laying before the country. But
they can't holler quite loudly enough to do this
number of others besides the Democrats have been
handing them statistical jolts which have all but
knock the breath out Of them, thereby transform
ing their whoops to gasps.
Take, for instance, the recent industrial survey
of the New England States by Rodger W. Babson,
the countrys leading authority financial and in
dustrial matters Mr.. Babson reported conditions
anything but good and much dissatisfaction among
the farmers and laborers in these states More than
that, he found much uneasiness particularly among
the smaller stockholders in the shoe and textile in
dustries He also stressed the great number Of
commercial failures i'll these states.
1t would follow, then, from Mr. Babson's sur
veys and reports that the prosperity cry will have
little weight in the East at least not among the Or
binary folks. And everybody agrees that it is
absurd to try to talk prosperity to the Western
voters For, as Mr.. Babsor points out "as the next
election will show the farmers of the United States
and Canada are very their respective govern
ments"
The Department Of Agriculture reluctantly in
forms the country that the farm prices during Au-
gust were twenty per cent lower than in August last
year and painted anything but rosy picture for

New York WORLD points out, the Agriculture De-
Ipartment has SPILLED the BEANS" The WORLD
|asserts:-
Eminent Republicans have been very busy
|marshalling arguments to show the farmer what
immense benefits he derives from the present tariff
Representative Wood Of Indiana who is directing
the Republican Congressional campaign, has put to-
|gether some figures purporting to show that the
wheat-growers under the sheltering wings Of the
Fordney- McCumber act, are about 20 cents above
that of the world market
"And now, just as the mails are being cluttered
with literature depicting the triumph of protection
The Department of Agriculture comes along and
spills the beans. In official statement it warns
the farmer that he should only expect wheat prices
during the coming year to be in line with the world
regardless of the tariff. What is the mat
ter with these agricultural experts? Can't they ur-
derstand the difference between facts and politics?
This latest pronouncement Of the Department of
Agriculture is worse than l-tme; if it isn't actual
treason we don't know the meaning Of the word"

reelected in 1888, 1890 and 1892.
He was not candidate in 1894
or in 1896, but with some diff
ficulty he regained his place in
1898 and held it for ten years
He suffered his first defeat in
1908.
In 1911 he became one of Ari-
zona's United States senators, a
position he held until March d,
1921. He had suffered his Sec
ond and last defeat the previous
fall. Though a democrat, a re.
publican president named him as
a member of the international
boundary commission, which in
many years had no duties to per-
form. The appointment was un-
derstood to be a recognition of
Mr.. Smiths good fellowship.
Mr.. Smith at the age of thirty,
about three years before he was
nominated for delegate in con-
gress the first time, was regard
ed as a brilliant lawyer, and
there is no doubt that if he had
confined himself to the study and
practice of the law, he would
lave gone far. He probably
found a great deal of enjoyment
in politics. His temperament was
such that he was not narrowed
by anxiety as politicians usually
ere in successive campaigns. He
felt sure of his hold upon the
eople of Arizona, though he en-
dured crushing disappointment
when they twice failed him.
His was regarded for thirty
years as a successful political
career, but it brought him to no
green old age. He died a sorely
disappointed man. 1t is to the
same destination that every young
man sets out who enters politics
for the sake of politics. Only a
comparatively few avoid it.

between Carl Hayden and Ralph Cameron for

The appeal for clothing and money

help the little orphans Of Armenia.
The appeal to the adult population,

money as we'll as clothing. Those
who have no old but wearable gar.

All Of the city's fire engine houses
