Senator Norris’ latest reform is to abolish the greatest court in the world, namely the Supreme Court of the United States of America, for the reason which seems good and sufficient to himself, that William Howard Taft, its Chief Justice occasionally: attends public and private dinners and other social functions where fashionable matrons and their daugh- ters are present with bare backs and abbreviated dress skirts.

He still ‘belicves that the women and the girls of the old home town are still wearing chin high and ankle low dresses. The Senator had better come back and look in at the Methodist Sewing society or the Baptist chicken-pie dinner and learn that McCook ladies hnve kept step with fashion without consulting his notions or his approval. If eating dinner with society folks im the evening unfits a judge to correctly balance the scales’ of jus- tlee the next morning, as Senator Norris, alleges, what would be the result if he ate no dinner at all? Ig it not a common observation of life that man is most at peace when he has dined well? And fs it not equally trae that a well-fed judge is more likely to deliver unbiased jddgment than one assailed by the pangs of famine? So far as bare backs and dainty ankles are con- cerned, they are a2 part of the social scenery. They: are calenlated to cheer up any Supreme court, how- ever august. You could searcely imagine a Supreme court or any court, enjoining, or abolishing a perfect female back or a perfectly turned ankle. Such things do not inspire a federal justice to climb a tree. Senator Norris is advised to select a pleasant morning and stroll down Pennsylvania avenue. The world may appear different after the ankle display he is certain to encounter. It may ve that he will not want to abolish the great American Supreme court; and he may sre the! propriety of proper and frequent sustenance for Chief Instice Taft. ee HOME AND FOREIGN MARKETS. The beneficiaries of the protective palicy are| chiefly the workers because under this system Am- erican wages and working and living conditions are maintained in competition with the smaller wages und more humble lot of European and Asiatic workers as affected by production costs. When wages are distributed among hundreds of thousands of workmen, they are in relatively small amounts and do not appear impressive to the indi- dual A lump sum of either the gross cr net profits credited to a single industrial plant seems a very formidable sum, and it is therefore a simple matter for radicals to mislead wage-earners as to the real effect of the protective policy. The census of manufactures taken in 1920 for Wilson administration promised a merchant marine without any additional burden upon the people, and then went in for the most expensive shipbuilding Program that could have been devised. The Wilson administration took over the railroads and urgently) asked Congress to extend government operation for, five years ‘longer, paying deficits out of the treasury| instead of raising freight rates to cover the costz| of operation. - The Harding administration is getting the ships ministration has returned the railroads to private operation and is trying to straighten out the obli- gations incurred under the Wilson regime. The Re- publican administration makes no pretense that trans- portation service can be bad at less than cost by let- ting the government do it. It is some relief to the country to return to plain every day principles of honesty and square business dealing in public affairs and to know that frankness and understanding have taken the place of subter- fuge and inefficiency. So known to be on intimate terms with Mr. Tumulty, former-President Wilson’s secretary, who maintains) anoffice at the national capital. They were part of the most extrayagant and inefficient administra- tion in American history. Mr. Harding has taken plenty of time to satisfy himself of true conditions, and has accumulated suf- ficient evidence to warrant drastic action. The. printing is part of the effort to reorganize the printing is part of the effoffrt to reorganize the federal service along the lines of Republican sym- pathy and cooperation. It is purely a matter of business, and for the good of the service. Practically every officeholder in # position of power or influence under the former administration was appointed because of his value as a political prop to the Wilson-McAdoo-Burleson-Tu- multy machine. Those appointees knew why they were selected, and they also knew that their tenure of office depended on Ioyalty to that machine. Re-! publican policies are almost a complete reversal of | those that obtained when Mr. Wilson was President. The closest cooperation is essential if the people are to get the sort of government they have a right to expect after the overwhelming Republican vote that put President Harding in the White House. That co- operation will be fatally defective if it is going to | depend on Wlson holdovers for success. Furthermore the Republicans have assumed entire | responsibility for the conduct of the government while they are in control, and the people of the country will hold the party accountable for whatever mistakes may be made. That being the fact, President Hard- | ing must be accorded the right of selecting his own assistants. Not only cabinet officers but subordinate cfficials having supervising authority in directing the management of public business should be men who believe that the President’s policies are sound and who are willing to do their full part toward making! them a success. Not oniy does Mr. Harding owe it to himself to appoint men in sympathy with his work, but he owes it to the voters themselves to see that no man is kept in a position of executive responsibility who is not a loyal supporters of the Republican desire to get the |nation back to.normal, curtail public expenditures and reduce the burden of taxation.

Never failing, at the same time, to keep in mind the welfare of your party, the interests of the stockmen, the amount of revenue to be derived, the good will and votes of your constituents at home. I have asked the state game warden, Mr. Cot- ton Tail, from Grin Junction, to be with us, and give us the benefit of his vast knowledge, acquired from actual observation and experience with jack rabbits and prairie dogs. We are now, gentlemen, ready for suggestions. Politician from Gillette: I think only the lk season ought to be changed from September 1 to September 15, because some of the meat which is killed by the few non-resident hunters who are in the mountains at this time of the year might spoil! (Meanwhile, thousands of elk are dying in the mountains from starvation!) Politician fro Gillette: I think only mature bulls, rams and bucks should be killed, and that a law be passed compelling all males to stand, when ordered, until their ages are deter- mined to the satisfaction of the guides. (Blk are still dying from starvation.) Politician from Casper: It ia per- fectly evident that the four millon acres we now have in game preserves are inadequate to keep elk from star- vation. I would therefore lke to sug- gest that at least another million’ be added, to consist of that portion of the continental divide or territory of a ike character, which at no time of year is available for ;co.« grazing! (Bile. still ae on game preserves from starva* jon.) Politician from Gillette: I would Ike to suggest that those killing elk legally shall send in a report as to the disposition of the liver, lungs and windpipe; ago and weight of animal and cigarettes. (BIk dying by hun- dreds from starvatiom) Politician from Casper: I think deer season should open October 1 and sheep October 15. This will not only tend to discourage non-resident sports- men from spending thousands of dol- lars in the state annually, while try- ing to get a few bucks and rams, but it will also help materially in putting our citizens guides out of business, thereby greatly increasing the gamo supply, so that there will be more to Creek country, Carl Downing should also be given that portion of the Green River country lying south of Big Wind River and north of the Platte river. (Meanwhile, elk being killed for their teeth.) Politician: As the state has appor- toned one-sixth of all the revenue ob- tained from hunting licenes, etc., for game protection, thereby causing a deficit In other departments of the state, I would like to suggest that all gulde licenses be raised from $10 to $25 and that the proceeds go to in- crease the salaries of the prohibition officers, their spies and henchmen. (Bik stil dying from starvation.) In order to prevent the useless slaughter of guides by guides, all guides should be compelled to wear a red hendkerchief, 17% inches square fastened around their hats with safety pins. (Mote elk dying from starva- tion.) Game wardeff: During my two weeks trip into the mountains last fall, I noticed such a scarcity of game that I would like to suggest a closed season on elk, deer and sheep for two years. ‘This will certainly increase the herds, so that when the next severe winter comes along we shall not only have a goodly number to starve to death, but plenty besides for the lions and coyotes. (Meanwhile, can't keep what elk we have from starving.) Politictan: ‘Inasmuch as elk are a domestic rather than a game animal I think 6% more tons of hay should be: provided for them during severe winters, and that such portions of the state game preserves and other terri- tory capable of supplying them with natural feed during a severe winter, 3 Now Is the Time to Plant é Sweet Peas |aboula te ‘tarnea_vver. to livestock} j, grazing during the summer months.
