THE DELEGATE vs. CASTOR FIBRE

Scientists and even the layman accords the beaver Castor fibre of natures cleveres engineers and along with it possessed of canny faculty oftentnies exceeding that of his Darwinan brother Many of his tricks such anchOring wood to the bottom of running stream and making it float whenever he desires building material, has not been solved by To go into his many and devious devices essential to his safety and comfort would require treatise the an ma and many surprises for the uninitiated.
 Yet the Alaska delegate claims to know more about what beaver needs that Mr. Castor Fibre himself The delegate is reported from Washington objects to
 prospective beaver farmer fencing in beaver colony the nucleus of his industry He agrees with the pre- sent regulation which says that beaver must be taken from the place he has selected for his home and planted to site selected by realtor and possibly in cluding bilboards containing descriptive matter and testimonials from movie actresses On the advantages of living Tn the new environment.
 Which creates cause for wonder whether MT. Cas- tor Fibre or MT. delegate is the cleverest
 In this instance one naturally gravitates toward Mr. Castors side of the argument He at least has behind him valuable traditions not the least of which is being the original engineer. It only recently that French engineer announced to the world that he had discovered engineering idea with respect to dams By building second dam below main structure fill ing the space with water he would provide cushion engineering plans along about the time when Darwin claims we emerged from the tadpole stage, he would have discovered that principle Mo- the first engn- eers plans calls for just such dam which he always builds to protect the pond containing his house.
 As Mr. Castor Fibre has stuck to his original physi- cal structure and the environment Nature has created for and directed him to- instead of leaving for some thing he is apparently fitted for it would that he has another strong point in his favor
 And MT. delegate struts the stage shouting Sten- to1an anahema at bureaus and their inelasticy, just for votes brother and sisters just for votes
