Se ca BUSINESS AND GOVERNMENT The platform upon which the Republican party won its phenomenal victory proposed no radical remedies for economic ills, Rather were the dec- larations and the whole tendency in the direction of conservatism, The candidates were the best examples of that school of thought and practice. In fact, candidates of the direct opposite tendency and of the less pronounced school, before the con- yention, failed to gain the approval of the party £ gathering, and the verdict of the people at the polls was proof of the convention's correct in- terpretation of the public will. Assuming, upon the face of the record of public testimony and reports, that there have been illegal practices in certain industries, with consequent ex- ploitation of the people,, the question naturally arises, whether the creation of new governing and supervising commissions is the remedy, an whether that remedy has either the expressed or implied endorsement of the people of the country. The Chicago platform contains no intimation of the pursuit of such policy. On the contrary, increase of government control of industry is ex- pressly condemned. A review of the Republican declaration of prin- ciples specifically denounces the Democratic ad- ministration for “‘its arbitrary and inquisitorial con- trol over the life of the people in time of peace, carrying confusion into industrial life.” The Re- publicans pledged themselves to “undertake to end executive autocracy and to restore to the people, their constitutional government. And in further pledges it is declared to be the intention to “free business from arbitrary and unnecessary official contral.. Existing federal legislation against monopoly and combinations in restraint of trade was approved; the administration of the federal trade commission was condemned; opinion was and its duties efficiently administered, should afford protection to the public and legitimate business interests, and the pledge was given to strengthen the law against unfair practices. Viewed in all of its important bearings the plat- form was an assurance to the country that its suc- cess at the polls would result in a change of policy, which would free industry from subjection to con- stant interference by officialdom exercising dicta- torial powers. There was no intimation that any individual, or class, or industry would be protected in any inequitable practice, but, rather, that citi- zens would find the measure of their responsibility and the limitation upon their liberties fixed clearly in the statutes and not left to determination by bureaucracy. If there has been restraint of trade and injustice upon the people, there have been during the time! round. British Express Appreciation of American Silver) LONDON, Feb. 14.—Newspapers of this city today gave considerablé at- tention to the address of Lord Re: ing, viceroy of India, before the| English-speaking union on Saturday} night, during which he told of the United States opening its treasury re- serves to send silver to India duri the war.

The only lack was an administration of the dep=rt- ment of justice with ‘the will, courage and ability to enforce the laws as they are written.

The pledges of the Republican party in this! respect are in accordance with reason and the most! acceptable experience under a republican form of government. In occasional and exceptional in- functions, but in a general sense and in the light istration justifies their existence. Mr. Harding has put the whole situation in epi- grammatic form, “what the country needs is less government in business and more business in gov- ernment.” ‘ eS TEACHING THE RAP#IT TO BE PEACEFUL The Chicago Tribune does not exactly agree with Frank Mondell in matters of disarmament. Mr. Mondell is convinced that the United States should actually and truly disarm and seek the path- The Tribune says: “Congressman Frank Mondell, Republican house leader, strongly urged the naval affairs committee to recommend that the United States lead the way in disarmament and lead the nations of the world out of militarism ' Mr. Mondell said that if this! was not done the fault would be the fault of the| United States even as before it was the fault of Germany. “Mr. Mondell is enraptured in visions even as many other congressmen and many citizens emi- nently qualified to be in congress. The United States has never been in armament competitions and is not now. Its only military extravagance | comes from people who do not see that navy build- ing agairist Great Britain is a folly, useless where it is not dangerous, * “The United States will not keep an army suffi- cient for its minimum needs. It will not keep one all the world powers. possessions or be the nucleus of a defense force capable of expansion. “To suggest that the:Wnited Statestenable the rest of the world to throw off militarism by dis- arming itself is to urge a rabbit to preserve the peace in a den of wildcats. “The only service the United States can do the peace and stability of the world is to press for a naval holiday which will stop competitive naval building and preserve the relations which now exist between seafaring peoples. “That is, its great possible service of peace, is the very policy which cannot make headway in congress. Even Mondell, who might be expected to support it, muffs the ball because he wants not a holiday*so much as he wants the United States to go it alone. i “When we could get an agreement of nations he wants the United States to scrap its own strength without an agreement.” FEBRUARY FOURTEENTH Saint Valentine’s Day, observed as a festival in honor of a Christian martyr of the third century. There is a very old notion that upon this day birds begin to mate, and out of this idea the custom of sending love tokens grew throughout the years resulting in the present day practices. . There. is no connection whatever between the saint and the manner in which his memory is obseryed. That fact, however, need not necessarily remove any of the joy from life, not interrupt the sweethart business. It is too pretty a custom to break up, or change after all these years. Say it with flowers, say it with chocolate-coated candy, say it with verses, cupids, hearts and fancy paper ornaments; but say it. It’s the stuff that makes the world go.

The little pamphicc passed around the refinery grourds Saturday, Feb- ruary 12th, state/ that if we had been organized we vvould not have receiv- ed the ten per cent cut in wages, Granted—out what would have been the alternative? A strixe! You’ are right, but would we be winner or loser if we won the strit.e? ZAow long would it take you and me 40 get back what we would lose, whi'e out on strike? ‘You home owners—where would property trouble? Say you didn't win, how about it then? I know from experience and se ‘lo you, or some of you at Jeast, it would be sacfrice everything and go some- where else and start all over again. How many times haye we already done that sort of thing? Isn't it true that working condl- tions at the refineries are the beat you have ever seen anywhere? Understand me—I am not talking to you ex-bankers and former miJlion- naires, I ant talking to the working man. If nothing but organized labor wilt do—let's pull its fangs, First, no one can be a member but an American citizen. Second, every member must be In the employ of the refineries. Third, no one shall be entitled to vote for or against a strike except married men, . Then your paid agitator will drift to more fertile fields, where he will not have to work so hard. The more capital we can bring to Casper, the better working conditions will be, We will never better our] working conditions by frightening cap- {tal way by labor troubles. @ Casper is the best little town in the whole A.

Mailiefert under contract with the citizens of New York in Au- gust, 1851. The following year, con- gress appropriated $30,000 for the work and placed it under the direc- tion of Maj. Fraser. The obstructions ‘Were removed mainly by blasting and dredging, thus providing a channel for ships. Q, I have a daughter 19 years of age, who is attending college. She is more of an expense to me than while at home. Can I claim the $200 exemp- —W. 8. A. Since your daughter is past 18 and not mentally or physically inca- pacitated to earn her own living, it is not possible for you to claim an exemption of $200 on her account. Q. How long have the Hawaiians had a written language?—c, C, A. The language of the Hawaiians was not reduced to a written form un- til after the arrival of the mission- aries, in 1820. An Hawalian spelling book was printed in 1822, two news- papers were founded in 1834 and the first translation of the Bible was pub- Ushed in 1839. Q. A states that labor is a com nod- ity, B says not. What do. economists say?—J. D. A. Not only do economists agree that it fs not, but in the Clayton act, the congress of the United States spe- cifically declares that labor is not a commodity. Q. Can mice exist in.s steel gran- ary if there is no water available?— L, H, B. A. The bureau of biological survey says mice can live for some time in a steel granary without having access to water except the moisture in the grain. House mice cannot get along without water as easily as the rat usually found in granaries. Some desert rats never drink water. . How did the expression “Safety First” originate?—E. M. B. A. The bureau of mines says that the phrase “Safety First" became a national slogan in the year 1911, when the bureau of mines gave a national safety first demonstration at Pitts- burgh, Pa. Afterward, many firms dealing with safety appliances adopted the phrase. Q. Were: the Aztecs a tribe or a nation? Are they extinct?—S. 8S. A.
