All this might have been expected. For mere than
two years the tariff commission has bssn Investigating
the duties on peanuts. soya beans, ecttouseed, cherries

seed and eggs. More recently II has initiated an in

dence. Nevertheless there IL fine campaign material
to be had here II the commission recommends . series
Of increases.
II will matter little Ia q political way whether or
not these increases will really help the farmers. A
higher duty on corn, which appears 70 be the increase
most desired. will be only an empty gesture wher
corn imports are such q tiny fraction Of our domestic
production, but the psychological effect is what the
republican leaders are after. Now is the time for all
good tariff commissioners to come to the aid Of the
party.

country, demand action, and l suggest a proposal as a
new remedy. Here is the situation which in my opin-
ion calls for the serious consideration of congress, and
! have been studying the problems Of labor for the
last eight years.
! do not mean by this Industrial labor only. because
in my opinion the problems Of the farmer who also
tolls u more acute than any other problem of the
present day.
The problem Of the man who earns his bread By the
sweat II his brow has been The problem Of the ages.
Civilization has advanced as labor has advanced. Il il
labor Of hand and labor Of brain that create everything.
All other agencies of production. including capital it.
self, are but the tools or the implements Of labor.
II D not very far back in our own history that labor
was ? commodity Of barter and sale. Even the laborer
himself was = chattel q slavery. We have advanced
far from those standards.
When the government by law extends protection u
an industry, il has the inherent right 70 regulate The
profits Of that industry. Even when b. law !.
corporation is created. it secures an existence BIZ vir-
tue Of a grant from the whole people. The government
and the power that makes such a grant has the right
70 determine The sort Of life it shall live and "a re-
ulate the profits il shall take from the people.
These ideas have been neglected in the past In the
resulation q our corporations and protected industries.
The time has now arrived when that great Fundamental
question can no longer be ignored.
Congress has Jurisdiction over ali inter.+,.. -
foreign commerce. Il has ample power to regulate Ill
corporations and ell protected industries engaged N
such commerce. Il has ample power to prevent such
corporations and protected industries from becomi,v
an oppressive and extortionste monopoly upon IN.

Gated under preparation now. I will soon pre.ent n
for consideration or congress. I cannot - ". -,
disposition congress may make OF the subject. I hay.
not conferred with anyone yet on the matter ard 81
cannot make any prophecy, but I believe that the rem
edy / propose would be a just and proper one.

an Indian settlement at the lower end
of Reindeer Lake. We were bound
north then and he evidently thought We
would be lost in the wilderness.
But we never were lost. On our way
north we obtained passage on the Hud-
son Bay Co.'S boat, Lac du Brackett, and
had a safe Journey up the long lake-a
journey which was uneventful compared
with the difficulties and dangers we
subsequently encountered.
Before We left Bracket, however, We
| gathered a great deal of information
regarding the country we were entering
from Father Egenolf. who has spent &c
years in that region; Jack Hogarth, once
husky trader, and few other "old
| timers" They were much interested in
our venture and assisted us greatly in
making ready for our "take-off" into
the unmapped territory.
At Bracket we added a fish net and
a 44-40 carbine to our supplies. With
| -four selling at $40 a hundred pounds.
sugar dollar pound and the prices
Of other things in keeping we did as
little buying as possible
| But we clung to our short wave re-
ceiver, for 1t had previously proven its
worth. On Wednesday evening we used
| 1t to pick up WGY for our special
broadcast and heard from the outside
world, though that world didn't hear
from us.
Coming back over the same route
was easier than going up, because after
reaching the Cochrane River we
travelled down stream to Bracket.
In our haste to return however we
ran series of treacherous rapids which
the Indians have never run before-so
they told us when we met some creek
Indians just below the rapids. Father
Egenolf at Bracket describes those
rapids as man eaters" and said we
must have had several guardian angels
watching over us.
The following day we arrived in
brackett and heard the first news that
we had been reported as lost on
Reindeer Lake without food or sufficient
clothing. We picked up a cache of
food left there on our way out, and de-
parted for South End, a distance of $50
miles down Reindeer Lake.
Food Runs Short.
| We selected poor time to cross Rein
deer. as high winds and rain hindered
and prevented our traversing the lake
Our food cache was sufficient for eight
days travel, but we we're windbound on

| lake.
The last three days we ate nothing
but ptarmigan. mess berries and lit
tie oatmeal. The fowls we got were
bagged with a .38-caliber revolver We
never expected to use this sidearm. and
we had only five loaded shells available
for use.
Thus it became necessary to reload
the shells by means of an old Indian
reloading outfit which we had luckily
picked up in the North. Our supply
of shot was very limited, so we resortet,
to small pebbles, which the ptarmigan
apparently thought was huge joke.
We suffered no discomforts and or
the eleventh day we stopped at the
Revillou post, situated on Waupus
River Mr.. Sweter, the man in charge,
invited us to dine with him and remain
| there until the weather was more favor
able for travelling. Five long days
