Just what do you, Mr. and Mrs. Citizen, conceive to be your duty, personally, in times like the present in assisting to cut down taxation or reduce the cost of the necessaries of life? Are you doing without things you would like to have but which you could get along very well without? Are you practicing economy in your own household or place of business and thereby setting an example for others? Even if it is a trite saying, “A dollar saved is a dollar earned,” you had better heed it. ‘Then again what are you going to do about candi- dates for public office, the men who manage your pub- lic business for you, the men who will say what taxes you will pay and who will also spend the tax money you pay into the treasury? Are you looking up men to fill the offices of mayor and councilman, who might} reasonably be expected to reduce your taxes by care- ful expenditures and the reduction of the outgo? You and your neighbors have annually been vot- ing into office men to manage your business, good fel- lows, perhaps, but with such woeful lack of concep- tion of public business as to be downright painful in results. Now is a very good time to think over the things so far obtained at the tremendous cost to yourself and neighbor. Your tax notice will indicate your share. If you think good judgment has been shown ‘waste no time looking into the qualifications of men who now desire to become your servants, for you are very likely to get another batch of the same kind you| have had. But if you feel concerned for your own and the city’s welfare you had better look the serv- ant problem over very carfully. PERN PADS AMERICA’S SEA STANDING. Lloyd’s of London is the great shipping authority of the world. The latest edition of the Register for 1921-1922 gives some interesting figures. Exclusive of Great Lakes vessels, the world’s steam tonnage to- day totals almost 59,000,000 gross tons. This is an increase of about 14,000,000 since June 30, 1914. Within this period the steam tonnage of the United States has multiplied six times while that of the United Kingdom has gained but two per cent. We now have nearly 75 per cent as much sea-going ton- nage as the United Kingdom and 28 per cent of the world’s total. In 1914 we had a trifle more than one- tenth as much tonnage as the United Kingdom and less than five per cent of the world’s total. The following table shows the world’s steam ton- nage for 1914 and 1920: ——Gross Tons—— Country. 1914. 1920. United Kingdom 18,900,000 19,809,000 United States 2,000,000 | . 13,500,000 Japan -- 1,700,000 3,400,000 France - 1,900,000 8,300,000 | Italy - 1,400,000 2,500,000 Norway 2,000,000 2,400,000 Holland 1,500,000 2,200,000 Germany ~ 5,100,000 700,000 Other countries 8,800,000 11,609,000 we Sa ge RIS So SE as 43,400,000 58,900,000 Tt will be noted that the United States occupied se: ond place in point of ‘world tonnage in 1920 and this is the position we must strive for in the future. While world sailing tonnage decreased during this six-year period, the United States was the only country to re- cord a gain and at present 41 per cent of sailing ton- nage is under American registry, the werld sailing tonnage for 1914 being 3,686,000 compared with 3,- 128,000 for 1920; that of the United States increas- ing from 943,000 to 1,186,000 tons. In 1914 there were 385 petroleum-carrying steamers with an ag- gregate tonnage of 1,500,000, while at present there are 801 such vessels aggregating 4,400,000 tons. Die- sel engine ships have increased from a tonnage of 284,000 in 1914 to 1,300,000 tons in 1920. In 1914, 364 steamers of 1,300,000 gross tons were equipped for oj) fuel, compared with 2,536 vessels of 12,800,- 000 tons so equipped at present. The growing im- portance of oil as feul and the necessity to this na- tion of an adequate oil supply is thus made apparent. During the fiscal year 1921 our imports totalled over $3,650,000,000 in value, of which $3,200,000,000, or about 90 per cent, were water-borne. Of this amount 59.41 per cent were freighted in foreign ves- sels. Of our $6,500,000,000 of exports for 1921, $5,700,000,000 of which were delivered in vessels, foreign ships handled 60.62 pez ceni and American ships 39.88 per cent. Foreign bottoms therefore freighted 60 per cent of our water-borne foreign trade. Seventy million net tons foreign ships cleared and entered American ports, compared with 68,000,- 000 net tons American. Great Britain alone was paid for carrying about $3,200,000,000 worth of our water: borne traffic, compared with $3,546,000,000 carried by our own boats, and it is Great Britain who is try- ing to destroy our merchant marine. One great assistance to our shipping position in the srorld has been the Jones marine law. To perpetuate our merchant marine and put our present law into compete and more useful operation it must be strengthened. As a supplement to it, the Jones amendment tothe pending tariff bill, proposing a dis-| criminatory rate of 5 per cent additional on dutiable| and % per cent on free goods coming in in foreign| essels will be far more efficacious than competing} th Great Britain in the matter of ship subsidies. | n the last analysis, there can be no permanent merchant marine ander.

With the present activity of federal enforcing offi- cers and a promise of still greater ‘activity on the part of Commissioner Haynes and his reorganized force there is no more pertinent subject than that of the right to enter and search the property of a citizen for liquor wrongfully in his possession. A writer in the New York Tribune has covered the situation intelli- gently and conclusively. Z The exact reading of the fourth amendment to the Constitution may not be familiar to many. It reads “The right of the people to be secure in their per- sons, houses, papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue but upon probable cause, sup- ported by oath or affirmation and particularly describ- ing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be seized.” The writer continues: “This constitutional amend- ment, prohibiting unreasonable searches and seizures, impliedly recognizes the general power of congress to enact laws defining what searches and seizures with- out warrant it deems to be reasonable. (Common- wealth vs. Watts, 84 Ky, 537, 2S. W. 123.) It fur- thermore implies that there may be some searches and seizures without warrant which are reasonable. “Yet a great deal has been said about the Stanley amendment to the amended Volstead act, now before the senate, as if it were neded in order to prevent the violation of the Fourth amendment. “But there is probably not a member of the United States senate, even Senator Stanley himself, who would yote now for the Stanley-Volstead amendment just as it unanimously passed the senate. It was too hastily drawn and is too sweeping. It would repeal at least twenty or twenty-five sections of the United States statutes. For the Stanley amendment provides that any officer of the United States engaged in the enforcement of any law of the United States who searches without warrant the property or premises of any person shall be punished. This would repeal at least twenty or twenty-five sections of the United States statutes, such as permit our customs officers without warrant to search the persons and of persons coming into the United States suspected of smuggling unlawful goods, and which permit internal revenue officers, postal officers and those in the In- dian service to make certain searches and seizures which congress has by act declared to be reasonable. “For instance, Section 3,453 of United States Re- vised Statutes provides that a revenue officer may, without warrant, search and seize’the goods and wares of citizens who it is supposed are trying to evade the payment of a government tax. “Both sides have referred to Boyd vs. United States 116, United States 616, in which the court said that a law was contrary to the Fourth amendment of the United States Constitution which provided that if a subpoena to bring in his books and papers were served upon a person and he failed to do so the allegations made in a complaint against him should be! taken as confessed. But'the decision on page 623 says: “The search for and seizure of stolen, forfeited goods, or goods liable to duties and concealed to avoid payment therefor are totally different things from a search for and seizure of a man’s private books and papers for the purpose of obtaining information there- in contained, or of using them as evidence against him, The two things differ toto coelo. In,;the one case the government is entitled to the possession of the property; in the other it is not. The seizure of stolen goods is authorized by the common law, and the seizure of goods forfeited for a breach of the rev- enue laws, or concealed to avoid the duties payable on them, has been authorized by English statutes for at least two centuries past, and the like seizures have been ‘authorized by our own revenue acts from the commencement of the government. “<The ¥irst statute passed by congress to regulate the collection of duties, the act of July 31, 1789, I Stat, at L. 43, contains provisions to this effect. As this act was passed by the same congress which pro- posed for adoption the original amendments to the Constitution, it is clear that the members of that body did not regard searches and seizures of this kind are ‘unreasonable,’ and they are not embraced within the prohibition of the amendment. So also the super- vision authorized to be exercised by officers of the revenue over the manufacture or custody of excisable articles and the cntries thereof in books required by law to be kept for their inspection are netessarily ex- cepted out of the category of unreasonable searches and seizures. So also the laws which provide for the search and seizure of articles and things which it is unlawful for a person to have in his possession for the purpose of issue or disposition, such counterfeit coin, lottery tickets, implements of gambling, ¢tc., are not within this category. Commonwealth vs. Dana, 2 Met 329,’ “The opponents of prohibition, who are more anx- ious to make it hard to catch and punish bootleggers that to protect the people from illegal liquor traffic, coatend that a search for liquor on a person or @ automobile is for the purpose of convicting him of a crime and, therefore, is the same thing as searching his private books and papers for information to us as evidence against him. But the courts seemi to, have held otherwise, and-common sense in this respect up- holds the courts. Good citizens will be loyal to the whole Constitution of our beloved land.” EE REO RIE EES TREADING DANGEROUS GROUND, ‘There is no more attractive subject upon which to write or speak than feminine beauty and at the same time it is a more dangerous subject than ‘dynamite. The New York Post is careful enough to quote a Spanish gentleman at long range. It says: “A Spanish scholar, impressed by the number of women engaged in earning their own living, has made a study of the inflmence of the various callings and recreations on women’s personal appearance. “Women who indulge in sports will read his find- ings with dismay. He contends that they cannot be- come professionals without doing irreparable harm to their beauty: “The bicyclist loses in time her grace, the -hockey player becomes mannish, the horseback rider stout, if not massive, while the tennis player de- velops flat feet, big hands, and a‘ red, distorted face.’ It is not the view ordinarily held, It departs so far from the truth that it is difficult to avoid the feeling that Castilian ideals of beauty are quite different from toose of other countries. “It is in his remarks on the beauty of actresses, however, that the Spaniard runs most directly’ coun- ter to current opinion. With the courage of a great scientist he argues that women do not go on the because they are beautiful; they become beautiful be- cause they go on the stage. The very desire to please, the actual necessity of making a good impression, con- stant association with literature, and sustained al sorption in a given role bring out the best there is in women, and, if practiced long enough, make the home- liest beautiful. Only the stanchest adherents of the James-Lange theory of emotions, which states that you are scared because you run and not the reverse, will accept this without cavil. Impresariois will feel that it demands more prophetic insight into the po- tential genius of the coming star than any of their fraternity have thus far been known to enjoy. “This is an attractive theme the proud Spaniard has elaborated. And yet the most he has done is to assail the theory, that beauty is only s! deep.” PRS SLE ee SRE, WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH JOHN? x The Shoshoni Enterprise makes this observation: “Patrick Sullivan, Harry Adams, Jimmie Cody, John B. Corn and Glen Leidecker haye left for the Path finder country on an outing trip, says the Casper Trib- une. It’s a cinch that bunch wouldn’t go on an outing without John B. Corn.” ORGANIZER NON-PARTISANS OPENS OFFICE Cheyenne Wonders. at Destin- ation’of Harry M.
