A fork is the best implement to

cause the eggs and oil to sep

attempt to put the responsibility for
adoption up to the legislature.
Here, briefly, Is the history Of the
sales tax:
First, It was urged by the governor
shortly. after nomination in 1882,
when group from his own political
section vetoed the proposal and head

Second, It was introduced into the
legislature by the governors personal
campaigner, Senator Erickson Of Kid
der and Sheridan counties, and twice

fore being revived for final adoption
Third, its passage In the legislature
WAS accomplished through liberal dis

fact that many Of them went on thu

DESTROYING a Fable

One Of the things which the re-
turn of beer has done for the aver
age American Is to give him more
information about the beverage and
the processes by which 1t Is made
and transported than any previous
generation has had.
Before prohibition people took beer
as matter Of course. There wasn't
q great deal of public interest In the
processes Of mailing. The average
customer, knowing only that it was
sold In bottles or wooden kegs, came
to the conclusion that the oak used
in the larger containers had some
thing to do with the flavor.
In this, as most Of them now know,
they were mistaken. The kegs were
lined with pitch to keep the beer from
soaking into the wood and making
the container sour" and unfit for
further use. The idea that the oak
contributed to the flavor was Just
idle fancy.
This information became generally
known when modern brewers began
shipping their product in steel kegs
and met with a protest from consum-
ers over the fact. They were forced
to make public explanation that the
only reason they hadn't done so in
the old days was the impossibility of
making the pitch lining stick to
metal.
In the time between prohibition
and the return Of beer that difficulty
was overcome by advances in metal
lurgical and chemical science.
The result has nothing to do with
the flavor OF the beer but it does have
tendency to make the product
cheaper. since the metal kegs last
longer and are generally lighter in
weight, with a resultant saving in
shipping costs.

Good CITIZENSHIP

Charles F. Urschel, victim of the
Harvey Bailey George Kelly kidnap
gang, is millionaire but rich and
poor alike may accept him as a model
Of good citizenship.
BY his refusal to weaken in the
face Of vicious threats against his
life and that Of members Of his fam
lily, Urschel proves the mettle of
which he is made. Whatever the con-
sequences, he has cast his lot with
that Of good government and will
continue to assist the government in
its prosecution of Bailey and the
other captured kidnapers.
This takes nerve of a quality all
too rare In these times, for a threat
by "Machine-Gun George" Kelly is
not a thing to be taken lightly. The
man already has many murders
chalked up In his record. To him the
spilling Of blood is a casual matter.
Various efforts being made to In
timidate witnesses and to plot the
release Of Bailey and his confederates
II they are convicted testify to the
fact that a major criminal gang has
been broken up. It is to the interest
OF society everywhere that its men,
bers be put In jail and kept there.
II and when this Is accomplished
Urschel and other members Of his
family will be entitled to credit
Meanwhile, they should have every
protection which the government
can give them.

LIFE Is ONE NUISANCE AFTER
ANOTHER

II the actual cost In labor and
thought and money could be accu-
rately determined we should probably
find that we spend as much for pro-
lection against and suppression Of
such nuisances Is vermin, pests and
parasites as we do for war and peace.
Consider the cost Of the damage done
by rats alone, and the cost OF our
efforts to prevent their depredations
and to protect ourselves against the
diseases rats spread-plague, infecti-
Gus jaundice, rat bite fever, trichinosis,
relapsing fever, and probably typhoid
and dysentery in some instances.
It would take too much Of our re-
stricted space to discuss all of these
nuisances. We can discuss only few
Of them here. At the present time

Utmost Care Needed

The need for utmost care in handl-
ing developments OF the MIRA pro-
gram IS illustrated by a recent In
cident affecting the Texas company,
one Of the nations largest oil re-
finers and distributors.
This firm participated in framing
the code for the oil industry and is
observing both the spirit and letter
OF that document, according to q
statement issued from its home Of
fees. Yet it became the victim of a
misunderstanding when 1t clashed
with the oil administration over the
question Of price regulation.
The company opposes the fixing Of
prices on the ground that it will do
the industry no good and may, in
fact, result In real harm. It feels
that the sound approach to the ques-
ton lies in bringing the production Of
crude oil into balance with consump-
tive demand and leaving prices to
take care Of themselves.
It was widely reported throughout
the country, however, that the Texas
company had refused to cooperate
with the oil administration, denying
1t access to the company's records
and otherwise attempting to ham,
string the effort to restore order in
this chaotic industry.
This. the company asserts, is not
the fact. It has notified the oil ad-
ministrator Of willingness to furnish
any data asked but reiterates its un-
willingness to participate in framing
a price schedule by the expression Of
opinions as distinguished from facts"
In this it would seem to be just
flied. The main thing in connection
with any code is whether or not 1t Is
being observed. It would be bad, In
deed, If every industry were called
upon to accept every suggestion made
by the code administrators without
question.
It is inevitable that changes In
these codes will prove necessary from
time to time. They are experiment
tai at best. Under these circum-
stances independent thought Is much
to be desired and more benefit win
result from critical analysis than
from unquestioning compliance.
The policy Is established and IS re-
ceiving nationwide support, but de-
velopments under the policy will
continue to challenge the best
thought in industry. The hotter the
arguments the more conducive are
they to careful consideration and JUS
tice In the long run.
Instead Of being condemned for its
attitude, this big oil company should
be commended for raising such ques-
tions as 1t feels should be presented
for further study. It Is not only a
right, it is q duty to fight for what
1t believes to be the proper thing.
It is necessary, In the considera-
ton of these things, that the public
keep in mind the essential differences
between conformity with a policy
and disagreement as to the wisdom
Of the policy itself.
