An infusion of new blood into © ranks of party workers is good for any party d our Democratic friends are doubtless wishing t they toc might be able to attract active young with new ideas into their ranks if indeed it is sible for that kind of a man to have any sort pf following among the Bourbons.—Lanider Journal. + 0 ' Had to Back Up CERTAIN Democratic senator who is always ready to make some accusation against others d who always affects indignation if anyone ap- ies to him the short and ugly word, has admitted Sane of his falsifications, but without apology, of Speaking in the senate, he declared that Sout in Indiana, where Beveridge won, he did not Be. any account at all.” This was in reference to rare ott a4 een m account of campaign expenditures. Mr. Beve- idge wrote the Democratic senator calling atten Stion to the fact that he had filed an account, not mly as required by law, but also weekly during the paign.

It is our ghess that Be Fridge will get thousands of Democratic votes in . @iindiana as a rebuke to the false charges of a sena- Bor of Mississippi. 5 a Samuel’s Assumption R. GOMPERS is entirely right in saying that there is a power over and above the supreme urt but he is wrong in placing congress as such @ power, though right in so placing the people. Jongress is a co-ordinate, not a superior power. fhe people are supreme, and, if the court finds an «t of congress unconstitutional, the people can ie the constitution. They have done it in the st and they can do so in the future. But Mr. jompers is assuming a good deal when he assumes Sthat the people will overthrow the decision of the supreme court holding that a labor organization is ssponsible for injuries resulting from its strike Gactivities. It is and has been for time out of mind @ fundamental prinicple that the law will not per- put a wrong without a remedy. The rights, duties gand responsibilities of combinations of both labor d capital are yet far from fully defined but the people of the country are determined that they all be defined in a way that will protect not mere- the rights of labor organizations and combina- ions of capital, but the rights of the country as whole. If Mr. Gompers finds the people out of ympathy with some of his views he may find the ason in some of the excessive demands made with is approval or the unconscionable methods pur sued in certain well-known instances to force de- nands that m not have been excessive. Henry Returns ‘RY VAN DYKE, of Princeton, former apes Uaehih Aas) ister to the Netherlands, was a strenuous | saber of the league of nations.

Sa - Keep Nose Out 4 $4 MBASSADOR RICCT has taken great offense at the suggestions of Senator Watson of Indiana| that foreign emissaries to the United States refrain! rom attempting to influence legislation in con-| ss or other American domestic policies. He has| aken the extraordinary course of issuing a pub-| ic statement in reply to the charges of Senator| 3Vatson. When he is requested to speak before busi- fess organizations, Ambassador Ricci says he is jot expected “to talk about hypothesis on the ori-| fin of the gods, or on theoretical suppositions about| Yhe versification of pre-Homeric poets.” His audi- &nces expect him to comment on current topics and tell them the truth, meaning, apparently, that his Siews on the tariff, immigration, and international Felations are sought. 7 Mr. Rieci was never more mistaken Sis smart reference to the origin }reHomeric pocts is not going of the gods and g~ to divert atten tion from the charges made by Senator Watson and heartily endorsed by the American people. Everybody who reads and is possessed of ordinary intelligence knows that there is a most active prop-| aganda in the United States to divert American | attention from the welfare of this country to the needs of Europe. Scores of foreign speakers, in- cluding Ambassador Ricci himself, are filling our lecture platforms telling doleful stories of old world conditions, how impossible it is for those | peoples to do anything for themselves, and how | necessary it is for the United States to extend more credits, cancel foreign debts, enact a free | trade tariff, lower the immigration bars, etc. The American congress is quite able to deal with all those questions without foreign assistance, and American citizens are perfectly capable of judging acts of congress without the advice or interpreta- tion of foreign ambassadors. His American audi- ences don’t care a fig for what Mr. Ricci may think of American policies, and he is grossly flat- tering himself to believe otherwise. Let him tell | for their own rehabilitation and to meet their just} debts abroad and he will be given close attention. Ambassadors Ricci and Geddes and certain other foreign diplomats have allowed themselves far too wide a range of subjects in their public talks, and it was high time for a courageous American like Senator Watson to stand up and say so, SEBS. AGREE The Matter of Foreign Policies T IS TRUE that the United States has no policy of foreign aggression—no desire to subjugate weak nations or take undue advantage of our strength. It is also true that we have no policy which will permit us to make the “supreme sacri fice” proposed by President Wilson when he advo. cated American participation in the league of na- tions. _But because we are neither aggressive and grasping, nor as yielding as some would like to have us, it does not follow that the United States has no foreign policy at all. Our foreign policy has been one of “live and help live.” We have undertaken to maintain here a na- tion in which the people may enjoy the greatest individual) freedom, consistent with due respect for the rights of others, and we are willing that jsimilar privileges shall be maintained in every {other land. When that policy of helping others to live and enjoy freedom brought us into conflict with Spain, and gave us dominion over former Spanish islands, we did not use that dominion for our material aggrandizement but solely for the well-being and happiness of the peoples who had come under our control. Never has it been charged that the United States has been an oppressor. We have sought to cultivate friendship among nations and to settle differences by conference, arbitration or a(jjudication, r+ther than by force of arms, but we never have yielded our right to con- trol our domestic affairs, nor made ourselves sub- ject to a super-state. We have settled boundary dis- putes by arbitration and have induced other na- tions to do the same. We have been prompt and iberal in response to the cry of distress, from what- ever land it has come, but we have not let our sym- pathies betray us into leagues with national dis- honor. We have been consistent in avoiding political affiliations with any other nation or interfering in the affairs of any other nation, but we have been gealous in guarding our own rights from direct or indirect interference from abroad.’ We have never yielded one iota of the doctrine that Euro- pean intereference with nations of the western hemispheré must be construed as an offense to us. We have readily joined other nations where we have had common interests and have co-operated with them to the extent of our common interests, but, when that had been occomplished we severed the relationship in accordance with our traditional policy of avoiding foreign poljtical entanglements. Our one time citizen Lady Astor, possibly be- cause of prejudice growing out of her present Brit- ish citizenship, may kid herself into believing that we have no international policy and that we shall have none until at accords with what Britain thinks our policy should be; but we beg to call the attention of the honorable lady member of the house of commons to the fact, and to suggest that she refresh her memory by a perusal of forgotten American history, that we have foreign policies as honorable, as definite, and as permanent as those of any other nation of the world. And at the same time we would challenge the dear lady to point out any British policies equally enlightened or in any Sine superior to those of the land that gave her irt woe ee Wastefulness of Prejudice re ka THE SOUTH will get away from the old Demo- cratic idea that it is always best “to buy where you can buy the cheapest,” and will learn to en- courage its own industries and the industries of the nation, there will be more prosperity in the |south and over the entire United States. Sending | money away to buy goods that can be produced at home is poor business policy. Even if a slightly higher.price is paid for the goods produced at home, jthe purchaser receives an adavantage from the | fact that the purchase price goes to pay the wages of home’ people, thus further increasing the demand for home commodities. In climate, in soil, in the varied character of its natural resources, no other section ofthe country is so greatly blessed as the south, but»it has been cursed by a political leadership that-is unsound upon the fundamental principles of economics. That political leadership keeps itself in power by appeal- jing to prejudices that have had no reason for exist- ence for the past forty years. There is no need to recount the events out of which that prejudice arose. The South now realizes and admits that a severance of the Union would have been a catas- trophe. The North realizes and admits that the gross evils incident to “carpet bag” government in reconstruction days, were unnecessary and never would have been permitted under the wise and sympathetic leadership of a Lincoln. But the conflict between the sections is a matter of history —not a present problem, except so far as politicians use it to divert attention from issues directly af- fecting the industrial and commercial welfare of the nation. Southern statesmen, Washington, Jefferson and Madison, were leaders‘in the establishment of the American protective tariff system under which American industry thrived. Southern statesmen were also the originators of the ship subsidy plan under which, prior to 1850, American ocean steam- ships won a place equal, if not superior to that of steamships under the British flag. A narrow and short-sightd southern statesmanship has in recent years impaired the industries of the nation in gen- eral and of the south in particular.” As a result of those changed policies among southern leaders this nation has sometimes been far from self-con- tained in its productive industries and far from self-reliant in its ocean transportation. From industrial leaders in every section of the south there has ecme in recent years an insistent demand for support of the protective policy, but the demand meets little response from political leaders. It will be fortunate if the ‘industrial in- in his life.\terests of the south ean make their influence felt in shaping the action of their legislative represen } tatives, us what Italians and other Europeans are doing | €be Casper Daily Cribune re STILL BLOWING BUBBLES 5 BILLION DOLLAR _ INDEMNITY “My Heart Has Housed So Many Transient Guests” My heart has housed so many tran- sient guests, And sent them off with “godspeed” on their way, After I heard what words they had to say.

If I had all the space of the front page I migh give them some of the reasons for the existence of the Motor club, but it would take more than a page of done right. The Casper club bought and paid for the first tractor that was ever used on Casper or Natrona county. roads, and it proved a wonderful help, so much so that all the road improvement we have had since then has grown from that. It was the Casper motor club that raised the money that made the Park-toPark highway possible. Their money made is possible for Gus Holm to raise more money in Cheyenne and Denver with which to pay the ex penses of the initial boosters’ trip round the 6,000 mile highway, and fur- ther helped to get out the road log and put the highway on the map. They have now gotten out a most splendid booklet showing the map of the highway and giving the distances from each point of interest to the next one, and back again. < A membership card in the Caspar Motor club is also a membership card in the American Automobile associa- tion which is the largest automobile as sociation in the world, and has at this time a membership of more than half a million. It is the national as- sociation and has agents as well as members in almost every town or city in the United States. The emblem of the Motor club is a guarantes of char acter and standing in your own town when you are away from home. Jim Griffith had it brought home to him in a most forceful manner while cn his recent California trip, he was getting toward Los Angeles before Liver Trouble Leads To Serious Ills Bleod Filter of the Body is Source of Infection Biliousness is a sure sign trouble—and any deran; serious if not fatal results.

It was a rear! end collisicn and the.bumb took oft! the right rear wheel of the Dodge and scattered chickens all oyer San Bar- nardino county. Jim says he saw more chicken right then than he saw at the shore. Of course there was a big hubbub, and the entire populace of the little town rushed out to help get the reck- less drjver who dared to bump into a respectable citizen of their little town. The owner of the Dodge was angry} clear through and he roasted Jim and| said some very alarming things that/ he was going to do to all tourists in the future, and then the town marshal} butted in and told what he was going| to do, and while he was getting it off) his chest and Jim was swelling with rage ready to lick the whole bunch, the owner of the damaged car went, around in front of Jim’s car and saw the little old Casper emblem, the ef- fect was almost magical he straight- ened out his face and the anger left) him, and he said to Jim “I see you; are a member of the motor club in| your town,” yes, said Jim I'm one of the directors, and the man said “Well there's no use of our having any words about this, we'll settle it as we do all accidents of this kind down here in California,” Jim wanted to know how that was, and the man explained: that he was a member of the Southern California Auto club, and that when any accident cccurred among members, each man wrote out his own version of the af- fair, and sent it in to the secretary of the club, and whatever he decided was right in the matter went with both of them. So Jim agreed to that, and they exchanged addresses and Jim went on to wife and kids. You can’t make Jing Griffith believe that those emblems are not worth $60 each for he knows they are. Jim says that eny man who owns a car in southern California and does not belong to the club of Southern California, is looked upon as an outlaw and treated as such whenever he gets into trouble. Every owner should renew his mem- he should join by am means. The Casper Motor club means a lot to all car owners in Wyoming. They are doing things. —FRED PATEE. ‘Concrete Lumber It has commonly been predicted for some time that concrete as a building material would eventually take some form which would enable easier hand- ling and faster construction than is possible under the customary method of handling that material at present. Fully in line with this prediction, and with the peculiar coincidence which inventors in all lines know only too weli, two men in the same city have announced at practically the same time the successful invention and use of what may be termed “‘con- crete lumber"—material which may be purchased in the same manner as ordinary lumber; erected in similar fashion without need of elaborate forms or molds, and giving @ finished result that equals that achieved by the pouring method. One style of this lumber consists of standard “boards” which are fur- nished in a variety of sizes. They are made by pouring concret+ over special reinforeément consisting of iron rods and heavy-mesh wire. This is aged a little over a month before being sold. Hence when the pur- chaser buys it, he can erect his con-|; crete building without the least delay. | ‘The boards are tongue-and-grooved and finished with a “beam” at each edge. In construction, fit snugly together, cr tie, is slipped around the adjoin- ing beams, and the joint is made, a little wet cement having first been used to insure the absolute tightness of the connection. The other type of concrete lumber has two basic types of construction— one for walls and one for floors. The wall type consists of small concrete boards, at the end of which are grooves, into which key plates, also of concrete, fit. The floor sections consists of square trough-like plates, whith, when “Whoopee!” cried Ned to himself from the top of a tree near his camp, and he scrambied down in great haste after he had first taken the direction of a thin spiral of smoke with his pocket compass. The smoke was woods. The first thing he build a “smokey” fire with birch and pine needles, so that Ted wouk see the smoke, for he felt sure that the smoke he had seen was a signal from Ted. Then, getting the direction again with his compass, he started off and before long, by means of shout- ing, he locate#@ his companion. Tea. No, but I was until a moment ago when I climbed a tree and saw the smoke,” answered Ted. “How did you find me, by the smoke?” Ned nodded and as they started home he bera nto tell his city cousin a few things about getting lost and, what is more important, about not get- ting lost. “The first thing to do when you start ‘out is to note the general direc- tion you are taking, whether north, south, east or west.” “Humph!" said Ted. but what good did it do me? I started for camp which was north or south and I didn’t have a compass.” “Did you leave a trail?” asked Ned. “Who can see footprints in the scorned Ted. + ‘ot footprints, but # deliberate trail.

The thing to do is this,” and Ned stopped and placed a row of stones from the middle of the path into the woods about six feet, s0 close, together that one could not miss them, as in Figure 2, A is the path, B and C are the stones. “Worth knowing, I'll say, Ned. Tell me some more,” said Ted. “And if there were no stones or T had to wind in and out in the woods and had any paper, I would tear it into bits and scatter it like the little stones, a pile in the middle of the path and then a few bits along my trail as long as it last€d, and then perhaps I could strip leaves from bushes and “I did that, ‘When Biased for You by Lewis Alien Browne “Lost?” he asked as he came up to) I couldn't tell) MONDAY.

Now look uz this fir tree— |see the branches on that’ side aro thicker and longer than on the other? Nature does that, grows them thicker on the north side to protect it.” (Fig- ure 4 at A) Ted was deeply interested. “And the moss or lichens on the trees, especially the pines, grows thickest on the north side,” added Ned. (Figure 5.) “Fine!” said Ted. ‘AN I have to do is to find north, then I face it, get the other pointe vf compitss and start on and—why look, here we are at tho camp!” Right, and please don't scare me any more by getting lost,” warned Ned.
