Yards and yards of space matter have been printed in news- papers throughout the country. ‘Those who knew and those who did not know, wrote upon the sub- ject. Some were honest in opinion, others thinly veiled selfish~motives; stil) others were inspired by fear or jealousy. Some iven had graft uppermost in mind. Partisan politics and personal advance ment were not omitted in the publicity purveyed to ple. Serie eaalls screen occasioned by the burning of such quantity of Greek fire has been dissipated. The public mind has been cleared of confusion bya Detter understanding; and the leasing of the Tea- t now bears less semblance to the opening of a political or economica: jackpot than certain well meaning but uninformed people worid have us believe.

The quality of oil underlying the dome is of higher value for other purposes than for fue There was no outlet for the prod or possibility of transporting it to the seacoast even if the federal government ever de- cided to embark in the business of producing oil, which the people have long since determined, along ith most other industrial and public utilitiy ef- forts, to be a matter for private enterprise. When no feasible plan could be devised to secure the-oil underlying the Tecpot the matter was laid ‘fore the congress. That body, in its wisdom, passed an act entitled “An Act Making Appropria- tion for the Naval Service for the Fiscal Year End- ing June 30, 1921, and for Others Purposes, which was approved by the president June 4, 1920, Among the features of this act was the aathority granted to the secretary of the interior with the consent and approval of the secretary of the navy, for the Jeasing of naval oil reserves to private persons, to secure a proper supply of fuel oil for the navy; and for storage of same at proper bases or exchange upon proper terms as in the judgment of the sec- retaries seemed best. For more than a year no person of adequate means in capital and experience appeared to un- dertake so vast an enterprise as the leasing and ploiting of Teapot dome entailed. Shortly pre- ious to April of the present year Harry F clair of the Sinclair oil and refining inte wanized the-Mammoth Oil company, an independ- ent concern, applied for and was granted a lease of the Teapot’ dome involving something like 9.3: acres. The lease was See on April 7 ot year by the secretaries of the interior and navy Sith the approval of the president of the United States, under an act of congress, and deemed by these public servants to be for the best interests and advantage of the people. interests of the people.

During his talk he anaylzed the workings of the Joint Stock and Land Bank, re- cently organized with a view of assist ing the farmers and stockmen of the te, telling of the benefits to be ived through the use of this med. ium when financial assistance is de- sired. The talk was most interesting and instructive to everyore, especially to the large number of farmers who were present. Mr. Hay was one of the fath. ers of the plan which resulted in the organization of the Joint Stock Land bank and is one of the heaviest con- tributors to the fund which makes it possible for Wyoming farmers to se: cure long time loans at exceptionally low rates of interest. His adviae to those who contemplated borrowing money through these channels was “Be sure your titles are perfectly clear before making application.” In the evening Mr..

The Dukes’ Are Fearful “We read that the English dues are viewing the economic situation in thelr country with grave alarm,” notes the Kansas City Star. “We gather from some of ‘the things they have been saying that they seriously apprehend that if England keeps on the way she is going she will soon be unable to afford the luxury of dukes at all. -, “Even now, we believe, there are only some 3Q dukes left in all Britain, from which it, will be seen that if the country doesn’t want to run ovt of this commodity completely it is high time it adopted some measures for their conservation. England is doing nothing at all in that direction at present, in fact if she has a ducal policy at all it seems to be of an op. posite character. The dukes are be- ing taxed literally to death, for one of their chief complaints is against what the British call death duties, or inheritance taxes as we would say. Thus the dukes not only are having great difficulty in living, but they can't even afford to die. “Of course, Britain would not be wholly without a nobility even if the last duke should be sacrificed to the needs of the national budget. There would still be left several vigorous orders which are much better able to stand modern economic pressure than the dukes are. For one thing the barons, viscounts and carls are much closer to the sources of produc- tion, many of them being from the ranks of the commercial class, and wealthy in other things than blood. The dukes have only blood, mostly. But the question is, as the dukes view it, can England get along with only barons, viscounts and earls? The historians tell us there was a time— perhaps more than one—when Enc- land did, in fact, run out of dukes. ‘They were pretty well exterminated by that regrettable unpleasantness that sprang up between the houses of York and Lancaster, but the fact that England laid in a fresh supply as soon as possible sufficiently shows that she realized the danger of being without them. “If we understand the dukes’ pres- ent troubles they are tied up with too much land and too many castls and country houses that yield no income— or not .more than the government takes for itself—and have nothing to live on. The duke: of Portland re- cently told his tenants he would po: tively have to close up his place in Nottinghamshire. We may be mis- taken, but we think this is the place that is said to hhve 15 miles of under- ground pasages to which his ances- tors used to retire when they didn’t want to receive cotapany.
