Gallup of | Buffalo, register of the Buffalo land office to succeed j ‘Hayden M. White. } 1| Mr. Gallup is one of the best informed men in pub- j lic land matters in the west, having spent quite a share of His life in land offices, in various capacitie: | He learned the trade in the Buffalo office, which dur- ; ing his connection enjoyed the reputation of the best tonducted land office in all of the public land states. As chief clerk he did the major portion of the actual work, and in an advisory capacity was a mine of in- formation’ not only to his superior officers but to the public having business with the office. the Havre, Mont., office became hopelessly balled up Jim Gallup was sent for and unscrambled the land affairs of the district so quickly and effi- ’ tiently that the government kept him there for sev- tral years to insure the continued smooth operation. The Buffalo office will be a model for other Wyo- ming offices to pattern after. Of course it is sad that Hayden White must pack bis doll rags and move out, but that is one of the exigencies of politics, which Hayden understands per- fectly and conforms to willingly. Hayden White ney- er did have any business being a Democrat any way and he is now receiving punishment for adhering to the false faith, when he all along knew better. a HELPING WEBSTER OUT. . The president has sprung another new ons. He Fave us “normalcy” at a time we needed it badly and we have rather overworked it. We don’t believe there is another word in the English language that has been more constantly employed for the matter of a year than “normalcy.” Now Mr. Harding has given us another equally as useful. He has coined the new one for you will not find it in Webster until a new edition is published and then you have to go to the addenda to find it. The president used the word in speaking of Secretary Weeks, whom he refefred to as a ‘“common-sensical” man. The word wizards at once got busy, but “sensical” did not appear in any authority. ‘They knew instant- ly what the president meant, for it is a way of his to leave no doubt as to the intent and meaning of lan- guage he uses. There is a language peculiar to Ohio, which was brought out by the Connecticut ancestors and which was enriched and embellished through pioneer expe- riences, and in which all of the finer shades of meéan- ing were readily discernible. It was replete with col- loquial expressions that have come into general use, without the users’ knowledge of their origin, yet they are as applicable to affairs of the present day as they were when some old Yankee coined them years ago, when plowing corn or settling open questions around the cross roads store on a rainy day when Ohio en- joyed a little more leisure than she now does to build new words and fit them to the nicieties of meaning. The fact is Mr. Harding is running true to form and may be expected to keep on handing out new ones whenever occasion demands. They all do it down where he comes from. They also have their own sys- tem of pronunciation and what may be euphoreous to an Ohioan would not be so to a fellow from farther south, or one back east. And it is no difficult mat- ter to’trace an Ohioan by his pronunciation. John Sherman on one occasion called it “finanzes” when everybody else in Ohio including himself, had been brought up on “finances.” When appealed to by news- paper writers for his authority for departing from the accepted Ohio pronunciation, his reply was “men like me make pronunciation.” That did not fix it, how- ever, for they still call it “finances” back in Ohio. le THE REASON FOR RAISING RAISINS. Advices from Fresno, which is in the midst of the vinéyard district of California are that the price of the new crop of raisins will’ be somewhat of an advance over the price at which the present stock is selling. @ Since 75 per cent of American raisins are: marketed bo m. Fresno there is nothing else to do but bow grace- ~ fully to what Fresno says about the price of raisins. It is said that the cause of the advance in price is simply a case of supply and demand. Theré is no shortage of crop over previous record years, but the demand for some reason is on the increase in the past few years. It appears that more raisins are used than formerly. That is more raisin pie is consumed than in times gone by, more raisins used in puddings and other culinary products than our grandmothers thought of using. f There may be other uses for raisins. We don’t know. Anyway people are going to pay more for them. E922 APSTRE” LOPRRETERUENTE EAT LOCH RADE REAT LG M8581 7 ao EA a er ONCE A STRUTTER. “At Doorn, in Holland, there is an odd old stuffer, who lives in daily fear of assassination,” says the Portland Oregonian. “If he were dead and quit of his memories he would be far happier. But he clings to life with a tenacity that one would not expect of a tyrant who dealt death so casually in his ‘heyday. He is the ex-emperor of Germany. It strikes the world as peculiar now that ever it feared him. The tables are turned; he fears the world. What a vast difference there is between a strutting monarch in full ,battle panoply and the same fellow reduced to the ranks. “The world overestimated the worth and grandeur of this man. It took him at his own appraisal. It fed the conceit that flamed into a madman’s fury. If it 4 if ; | could have looked behind the scenes, when the kaiser was getting ready for war, was whetting his sword and approving the submarine policy, it would have laughed boisterously at the diseased ego of the Prussian mon- arch—and Germany would have listened to that laugh- ter and learned something to its benefit. The all- highest was transmitting to his military and naval forces such orders as, in-any other service, would have elicited a democratic how! of mirth. “He insisted, it seems, that too many naval officers were losing their hearts'and actually carrying the af- fair to the altar; that his officers did not fight enough duels to conform to the good German tradition; that naval officers should shave off their moustaches, un- der penalty of his displeasure; that it was all right to get drunk, but the revel should be privately indulged in—and more to the same effect. “William is an outcast now. But he brought about the bloodiest war in history because the world kept its fate straight when he strutted.” Ae DNR iS WINNING HIGH APPROVAL. Sister Alice Robertson the lone woman member of congress, and hailing from Oklahoma, is receiving no end of favorable comment for the attitude she has as- sumed as a member. The Springfiela Unjon express- es very accurately the general opinion when it says: “Not without a word of generous praise and en- couragement should the action of Miss Alice Robert- son, the only woman representative in congress, be allowed to pass. In defiance of a lobby apparently or- ganized and operating on the too effective threat that those who do not yield to it will be deprived of their political skins, she has put her foot squarely on a measure that is vicious in principle and would be worse than ineffective in the objects it professes to seek. “‘T refuse to work under the demoralizing compul- sion that has been used in this instance,’ bravely clared Miss Robertson. ‘Accordingly I face being ri culed, persecuted and eliminated, but I face it fear- lessly. It is my duty.’ Miss Robertson needn’t worry. She will gain far more than she can possibly lose. She seems to be made of the stuff of which congress has been woefully short, but which the country is desper- ately seeking in its politics. If it can’t be found among the men, it would be best to fill up congress with women like Miss Robertson—women who will re- sist the propaganda and threats of women as well as men. “The measure she refuses to support in the circum- stances is the so-called better baby bill, though it is not a bill for better babies at all. It is a measure pro- posing to put the Federal government in business that belongs to local government. It is based on allega- tions of greater maternal ignorance and neglect among the poor than among the well-to-do, and on al- legations that are impeached rather than substantiated by facts. But even were the allegations warranted, the meddling usurpation of state powers and the as- sumption of state duties is a tendency to be ruthless- ly checked, for the Federal government has never yet done this without making matters worse at an in- crease of cost to the Federal treasury. Such things must inevitably be done by the states, but when the Federal government ‘comes in with a bureau and an appropriation, the states lie down and Federal aid amounts to little more than financing the bureau.” SLA? to ee eS DETERMINING CAREERS. “Hitherto we have been content to dump the prod- ucts of family life into the educational hopper,” says the San Francisco Chronicle, “and allow the individ- ual items to adjust themselves into strata according to their relative weight and activity. The theory has been that special-competence would have its special urge and the product as ground out would be a natu- ral product, each element taking its place in the gen- eral scheme of things according to its fitness as de- termined by competition. “If we correctly catch the drift of modern educa- tional science, it is proposed to change all that. In place of the hurly-burly of struggle, competent psy- chologists are to be.employed, presumably by the pub- lic, to test the little imps as they reach school age and determine in advance as to each, whether he or she is to be trained for a statesman, a seamstress, a mer- chant, a housewife, a cobbler or a schoolmarm or whatever the data thus assembled may indicate as his or her appropriate station in life. Obviously that should save a lot of wasted effort in training for a multimillionaire one whose appropriate place in so- ciety is that of a sewer builder. “Surely the world do move and we move with it. At least we think we do, but how about the doctrine of relativity? Perhaps this is part of it. Anyhow it is hard to understand. How, for example, are we to test out the testers?” x Poe a te BLAME IT ON JAZZ. The Pittsburgh Dispatch in its wisdom tells its read- ers: “Something of reserve has gone out of the per- sonality of our young women and something of nobil- ity has gone out of the attitude of our young men to- ward young women,’ laments the dean of men at State college. He attributes it to ‘jazz,’ which is, he thinks, hurting the standard of taste and the finer sensibilities of many college students. “Heretofore it has been blamed on the war, on pa- rental indifference, on lax training, on that vague something called ‘unrest. Some cynics have even hinted at ‘innate cussedness,’ their synonym appar- ently for ‘original sin.’ It will be a comfort to learn that it is only ‘jazz.’ When ‘jazz’ is thrown into the discard, following the ukelele and all other former fads in that line, we may look for a return of reserve and nobility—unless by any fell chance something worse than jazz turns up.” aie TES Se ae MOVES TO SWIFZERLAND. According to latest advices Grover Cleveland Berg- doll, the Philadelphia draft evader and fugitive from justice, who has been spending some time in Germany, has moved his personal effects over into Switzerland, since the treaty in process of formation between the United States and Germany will make it pos$ible to extradite him. Germany has made it plain that she is shedding no [tears over her visitor’s departure. She is weary of the publicity brought to her and disguested with the general behavior of her uninvited guest. The fact that Bergdoll refused to fight against her did not seem to weigh as heavily with Germany as the fact that he refused to fight at all; and his treachery to his home land did not gain him but little respect in the land he forfeited his honor to protect. It is very doubtful if Switzerland will give asylum to so contemptible a cur as Bergdoll for any length of time, when she understands that the United States government desires his presence for the purpose of serving a sentence for treason. es HELPING THINGS ALONG. Direct tax reductions are not to be confined to the rich or to big: business, The ways and means com- mittee has determined to increase the exemption of married men from $2,000 to $2,500 if they have an in- come of $5,000 or less, and to grant further exemp- tions of $400 for each dependent and minor child in- stead of $200 as at present. Those provisions will make direct cuts in the assessm@nts of hundreds of thousands of taxpayers in their n&st returns, for the new exemptions will be retroactiv& to January 1, 1921. Furthermore, every consume in tue land will be indirectly benefited by the repea@f of the excess profits taxes and the higher rates o: Indus- try will resume, better labor condi@jons will follow, and lower prices will rule and there ino reason why these things will not be a considera! times. aid to better] {IB be Casper Daily Cribune CHILD LABOR LAW INVALID Ruling Pronounced Unconsti- tutiona] by Judge For- merly Upheld GREENSBORO, N. C., Judge James E. Boyd, in federal court, today held the new federal! child labor law unconstitutional. The) ‘Owen-Keating child labor law was also held unconstitutional by Judge i Aug. 23.— the United States. | The opinion today was rendered in the case of Vivian Spinning mills of; Cherrydale, N. C., who asked an er-| der restraining J. W. Bailey, collector of internal revenue, from enforcing! the act. The law imposed a federal tax of 10 per cent on the profits de-| rived from products on which child) labor was employed. | Regulation of labor, Judge Boyd held in his decision today, is one of the powers retained by the states and Rot delegated to the federal govern- ment. State child labor laws are ade- quate to care for the situation and provide a penalty, not a tax as is pro- posed by the act of congress, the de; cision said. The attempt of the federal govern-| ment to regulate Yabor within the state is an usurpation of authority and| a violation of the sovereign rights of the state, concludes the ruling. | An order permanently restraining the collector from collecting revenue from the Vivian spinning mills was signed at the same time the opinion was announced.

The money markets have now been definitely tested by the early and heavy movement of wheat. has passed, the cotton crop will coming on the market. the entire situation, and giving due weight to the many factors affecting the market, business operations at this time should be based on prob- able continuance of rates at levels not far from those now prevailing. This should not be regarded as unde- sirable, since a stabilization of rates at these levels would be in line with the reestablishment of business ac- tivities on a sound and permanent ba- sis Although there is plenty of money, the demand for it is heavy and any judgment of the future course of money rates must take account of the inter-relation between bank credit for current producing and merchan- izing operations and the require- ments for funds for more or less per- manent financing. While recognizing the factors for lower money rates, there are power- ful forces which tend to maintain them. The violent declines in com- modity and security prices have auto- matically tended to reduce bank de- posits at the same time that loan re- quirements have been falling. In other words, while the decline in the Price level does to some extent re-| lease credit supplies it does not neces- sarily work uniformly in this direc- tion. | A further influence for mainte-| nance of the rate levels lies in the large sums tied up in carrying huge stocks of nonsalable raw materials in various parts of the world. Addi-! tional money will also be required from time to time as new crops are produced.
