The most recent issue’ of treasury certificates, amounting to $400,000,000, has been largely oversub- scribed. The banks are still loyally supporting the government in its need for short term loans. But the ease with which the money is forthcoming must not blind us to the necessity of wiping out the float- ing debt of two and a half billion dollars at the earliest possible mornent. The call for economy sounded by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon must be heeded if we are to emerge from the debt burden that is now upon us. It is certain that Congress and the executive will co-operate to effect every possible saving, and the citizen must do likewise. fo SIMPLY MUST HAVE HIM. Just be patient a few days. If war continues in Germany Bergdoll will get away from it. He abhors war. And if we catch him in territory with which we are at peace we'll get him without any trouble. And when we do get him what shall we do with the yellow cur? If he is to be tried before a court martial, let’s have Hard Boiled Smith preside and fix the punishment or else make H. B. his cus- todian. If the slacker could be brought before a civil court, it would be nice to have a jury composed of twelve veterans of the A. E. F. who fought in the Argonne campaign. Hf the Harding administration does nothing else it must find a way to bring Bergdoll to America and give him the medicine the late Wilsén administration s0 carelessly avoided imparting. And don’t omit getting that chauffeur fellow who tagged along with him. It is high time to establish respect for the institu- tions of the United States in certain quarters and a clear understanding of the meaning of the emblem that waves over the capitol down in Washington. ST Ce ae MR. LANSING’S BOOK. As was to be expected the Lansing book on the peace conference has created widespread interest and comment. Public opinion has settled three points with reference to the publication, Lansing has utterly failed to vindicate himself, but he has clinched the case against Wilson, thereby fully justifying the sen- ate’s action. The responsibility for the failure of peace is where the senate placed it by additional di- rect evidence. The revelations made by the foriner secretary is regarded as the most severe indictment of the form- er president’s course yet given to the public. At the same time Mr. Lansing offers no satisfactory explana- tion, in view of his own dissatisfaction and the treat- ment accorded him, why he did not resign and return home. Senators prominently identified in the long drawn out fight against ratification make no public com- ment on the contribution to league literature, but in private opinion it is gathered that the consensus is that while the publication is a terrific arraignment of Mr. Wilson and his methods it is in view of the facts eminently fair to him. i Ermer ae DELAWARE SETS THE PATTERN. Little old dinky Delaware, just about the area of a postage stamp, has got the nerve and determination to go after the so-called crime wave by the use of methods at which other states balk. She has resorted to the old reliable whipping post and has already ap- plied the “cat” to defiant criminals convicted of grand larceny, robbery and highway robbery. ‘ The theory of the Delaware law is that the humilia- tion of being beaten is worse medicine to a ¢riminal of violent proclivities than any prison sentence that could be inflicted. It is a public affair. The victim is stripped to the waist, led out into the public view in a jail yard and lashed across the bare back with a cat o’ nine tails. This is the same stuff that drove the gold brick artists out of New York twenty-five years ago. Wife beaters are also eligible to the same moral in- struction under the Delaware law. ORE he THE HARDING-REED FRIENDSHIP. There is a mutual admiration and a strong personal friendship existing between President Harding and Senator Reed of Missouri, who was the most cordial- ly hated Democratic senator, by the Wilson adminis- tration, of all of them of that faith who declined to accept the Wilson bidding on league and other mat- ters. The president values Senator Reed’s counsel highly and he was early invited to Marion following the elec- tion. While in no sense a seeker after favors or patron- age in purely democratic appointments Senator Reed’s word will determine the choice with the president in all matters of this kind. It is because these two men forgot partisan politics in war time and stood together for their country’s honor and fought the fight for her cause to the end that such confidence between them was established Men who have been tried by such tests do not readily forget. i Senator Reed has emerged from the abuse, mis- representation and humiliations heaped upon him by the Wilson regiine, a greater man in public estimation than any of his detractors, including Wilson, himself, Jim Reed is sincere, honest, capable and a splendid fighter. He is more at home and finds more congen- ial company among Republicans than he does with his ’ v own party colleagues. And with it all is as staunch a Democrat as there is to be found in all Missouri. He does not permit you to forget it. a SHARING WITH EMPLOYES. As an evidence of the view great corporations are} taking nowadays in their relations with employes and their desire to aid them the plan of stock purchase} just inaugurated by the Standard Oil company of Indiana is worth republication. It is a profit sharing plan effective March 21. Un- der it the company gives to the employes one-half as much as they save from their wages and deposit with the company for the purpose of purchasing stock in the Standard Oil company. ‘4 By indicating his desire to do so, any employe can systematically save any part up to 20 per cent of his earnings, and to every dollar he sets aside the com-| pany will add 50 cents. As soon as the savings have reached an amount suf- ficient to buy one or more shares of stock, the pur- chase is made. All dividends from the stock will be added to the employe's savings. At the end of five years the stock will be delivered to the employe, to- gether with all uninvested morfey which may be held to his account. Should an employe wish to withdraw from the plan, he may do so at any time and collect the money he has placed in savings, with interest at 6 per cent, but he loses the company’s 50 per cent. If he is dis- charged the same rule applies. If the employee dies while in the employ of the company, his heirs may collect all money invested plus the 50 per cent put} up by the company. © ‘ The price at which the stock will be sold to em- ployes is to be determined by the market value of the stock for the six months previous to March 31, each year, and this price will hold throughout the year. Any employe who, prior to March 31, 1921, or at any time thereafter, has been im continuous and ex- clusive service of the company for more than one year, and who is regarded as a permanent employe of the company, is eligible to participation in the plan. ewe ne eee We have it, on the authority of the Washington Post, that the drop of one cent per gallon in the price} of gusoline will not appreciably cheapen bootlez) liquor. | PERI Alef SNES OUT—LET’S STAY OUT. | By devoting our strict attention to domestic affairs and establishing pre-war relations with Europe, will| get us back to that desired normalcy as quick as it} is possible to arrive through any possible action from a governmental source. It is believed that the allies have for the time be- ing, at least abandoned their interest as to whether the | United States will eventually adopt the league of na- tions, and are centering their hopes upon hearing from this country any indication of sympathy with the plan of reparation that they are applying to Ger- many. It is further stated by writers upon the sub- ject that payment of that reparation would be expe- dited were an announcement to be made of the stand| of the United States in the matter. It is said that a word from America supporting the allied claims would cause Germany to cease her obstruction tactics and/ take measures to pay the indemnity in accordance) with the allied terms. Allied diplomats apparently have chosen to interpret President Harding’s inaugu- ral address as an assurance that Germany can expect no sympathy from the United States, and they seem to have arrived at the converse of that policy by as- suming that official American sympathy will be be- stowed upon the course pursued by the allies. . The statesmen of Europe should undeceive thenl- selves. While Mr. Harding assured the nations of the world that the United States stood ready to coun- sel with them in the interests of world peace, he as- serted that ‘we seek no part in directing the destislies of the Old World.’ ‘It is a far cry from participating in a conference with foreign governments to showing sympathy for one former belligerent or the other en-/| gaged in the interpretation of a treaty into which both have entered. That is what the suggested action amounts to—nothing more nor less than the assump- tion of the role of interpreter of a treaty between couutries of the Old World. Could there be a more flagrant departure from the policy proclaimed by President Harding in his inaugural address? The controversy over payments by Germany is to| be left entirely in the hands of the parties to it so} far as intervention of the United States is concerned. | We are out of Europe. It requires only the formal) announcement of that fact, through a treaty or reso-| lution of congress, to restore precisely the same con- ditions of peace that prevailed before the war. No-| body would haye suggested before 1914 that Amer-! ica project herself into a controversy between the countries that afterward entered the war, and the} events that have transpired since that date must not! be permitted to blind our eyes to the proper relations the United States should bear to the rest of the world. ee TAT es HOW MUCH SLEEP. “Five hours sleep satisfies Thomas A. Edison and| at seventy-six he is hale and active,” says the Boston) Globe. “Most people have attributed this to his gen-| ius. Mr. Edison says he -has learned his sleep. re- quirements from long self-study. “When Mr. Edison is discussing a theory on which he has staked his life, and has concrete evidence to of- fer, as on this subject, he speaks with power. During] the war he worked from early morning until late into the night in a warm southern city where the climate was often given as an excuse for much drowsiness. While, others feared for his health, he Igbored calmly} on. “He now explains his frame of mind by saying that he has looked through medical journals covering a long period of time without finding a case of a per- son hurt by loss of sleep, excepting, of course, in- somnia sufferers. Loss of sleep, according to Mr.) Edison’s way of thinking is blamed for too many ills, when the poison lies’ elswhere. “The gold of Mr. Edison’s testimony, however, is contained in his advice to conduct experiments, each man for himself. In no field have there been so many general rules as about sleep. The common belief is that health calls for eight hours each for work, play! and rest for the normal adult. Another household rule insists that the feeble and children should spend) half their time in bed. There may be truth in both! of these, but Mr. Edison can make reservations based on his experience. “To most people sleep becomes a matter of habit, and when they have not spent the usual time under bedclothes, they get up prejudiced against the day. “Rest is dependent, of course, dr many things. Wise men watch and regulate it as carefully as they do their meals and exercise, avoiding first of all the harm- ful effects of oversleeping.” yibnitsa bon A . COMMEMORATING LUTHER. Commemorating the four hundredth anniversary of Martin Luther's heroic stand before the diet of Worms the American Lutheran Publication Society is issuing a suitable stamp. The anniversary comes on April 17, and the followers of Luther will observe the event by appropriate services throughout the country. Four hundred years goes back to a, time that Carlyle} says was “the greatest moment in the modern history of man.” Martin Luther was an outstanding figure in the world’s history, and so impressed the world that his influence is potent to this day. It was at the diet of Worms also that the discovery of America was first officialy announced to the world and the first Indians from America there exhibited.

The company has ceured a lease on Section 36, which is a school section cornering on the railroad right-of-way about three miles cast of Shoshoni, and extending from that point south- ward. The prospecting work will be taken up immediately. Supplies are al- ready upon the ground and the men who will have charge of the wort are expected here at once. Four or more holes’ will be drilled on the land, the first of which will be near the railroad. Should the land be found to con- tain a large deposit of good coal, which is confidently expected, it means that the company will begin the active mining of coal on a large scale. The beginning of this work here by the’ Northwestern is one of tig mhoxt Giiebhraging developments in| irs and Will mean great -things for Shoshoni if carried to a successful consummation, which is only copiin- gent upon a sufficient deposit of good cogil being found to warrant ifs de- velopment. fe The Predatory Wolf, 4 (Gillette News) Glen Fitch came to town, last Tues- day bringing with hi tse chides of seven young wolyes that he teck out of a den near Middle Prong in the Wild Horse country. Me located the den during the re- cent snow when he trailed the old onés to a hole that had an opening: at the top of the bank and another one down into the opening and found the pups back in a side chamber of the hole. They did not have their eyes open. He killed them at once but had no chance to get the old ones. Mr. Fiteh brought the pelts ‘to town where he secured a bounty of $105 from the North Side Wolf Boun- ty association through Secretary John Osborne. ‘The association pays the sum of $15 for each wolf pup. Ranch- ers will appreciate the good work Glen has done to help rid the country. of these pests.as the old.ones have caused much loss to owners of live- stock during the last winter.
