A paper will be de- of the law makers and their suggestion that further | delay in the passage of ship legislation is probable, | bas forced President Harding to come to the front in no unqualified manner a thing he should have done long ago, and demand that this~ matter be settled now. In order to insure development of our infant in- dustries, America adopted a protective tarif{ for the product of factory, mine and farm. Thus Amer- ican ships had to be built by the highest paid la- bor in the world and operated by the highest paid crew. None would bave American standards of Itving lower than they are; but the insurmountable handi- cap caused thereby to American shipping, built and operated by protected labor in competition with foreign ships is obvious. President Harding recognizes these facts and also the fact that as conditions return to normal, as freight rates drop, and as competition more keen the American flag will be wiped off the sea by foreign competition just as it was previous to the world war. He also realizes that the Amer- ican people are tired of the tomfoolery that has been displayed in congress with reference to this measure. If America is again placed in jeopardy through lack of shipping facilities as it'was at the begin- ning of the war President Harding realizes that the blame for such conditions will rest solely with the men now in congress and upon whose action the fu ture of our merchant marine depends. REE EI The Illinois Butchery ssT\HE EYES of this country are centered upon southern Illinois,” Says the New York Herald. “One reason is that one of our great states,| ee oa Thoroughness and Forcefulness FARMER BOY born and bred to the soil may A wander far afield in other occupations of life; but he-will hlways have a longjng to return to the things he knew and did in boyhood. He dreams, while accumulating a competency in other lines, cf the day when he will engage as a man, in the pursuits that filled his boyhood days. It is true of John Hay that having been born on an Miinois farm and knowr. the struggles and rewards of that life, and having abandoned it when transpor-| |, tation appaxently held out higher inducements, should, after attaining high and influential position when opportunity presen abandon the second love for the first and engage Th ranching and stock- raismg-in Wyoming. Of all the concerns in the busy life.of John Hay, the multitude of duties, cares a and> sibilitiess entailed by his vast. business interests, he finds relief and recreation in ‘he pursuits: of*axrancher-and stockgrower.- He is, remarkably successful in such endeavors ‘becauseshe has applied the principles developed in business and transportation, insofar as they served, to the» production of'cattle and‘ sheep and the growing-of crops. There are‘two-characteristics that have stood out holdly in John Hay as boy and man; they are thoroughnessand:forcefuiness. He possesses many others, of course; but let us speak of these two which counted.so*greatly in hie. successful career. ‘The-thorougimess*is manifest in the business con- cerns that he has builded. In the first place he knew, and in thessecond place he-never overlooked. Details to. him are as large print. He saw to it that theeminntest-of*them weresas: thoroughly un derstood by others. as they were. by himself. He has a faculty of presenting things to-others lucidly and briefly that’ would be mighty valuable, if pos- sessed by a school teacher or’a college professor. He knows when a thing is complete. It may be a big undertaking or a small task, but complete it must be. And it is when John Hay-puts the final ©. K. dpon it. Executive ability may have had‘ fts beginning when he was given command of a plow team back in Illinois. At least it is recorded that he was a thorough master of the team, had its confidence, and ‘plowed the fields thoroughly in straight clean furrows. It is certain when.he became-aytrain dis- patcher authority rested well upon his shoulders. He knew his-responsibility and faced it with cour- age and understanding. When enlarged authority os a railroad division superintendent came to him he was prepared, and the records show how well he performed. The success and prosperity that have attended his own business efforts, simce he em- barked for himself, stand as a monument to his thoroughness:and forcefulness. 4 No man-in Wyoming is better fitted” by training, experience, viewpoint and ability to become the chief executive of Wyoming than. John Hay. No man has greater sincerity for the people’s inter. ests. No man will make less mystery of govern ment and the-affairs of ‘the people than-John Hay. He has a decided penchant for plain, simple right things. If he becomes fhe governor, his adminis- tration of the people’s business will reflect these things in whatever he does. Se Cut the Tomfoolery A STUNDRED and ten milion American citizens witness their congress in session for months at a time, wrangling over the passage of measures which vitally affect our national progress. They see congress adjourn with most important business unfinished and they see it reassemble with new members and the whole fight on an important proposition again started. ‘They have seen this procedure-repeated for years at a time while the passage of important meas ures affecting the life of leading industries, hung | in the balance. If one thing above all others would condemn government ownership and management of any line of industry, this feature of political rag-chew- ing would be sufficient. Witness tod: as one example ouw merchant marine proble For many years the subject of a ship subsidiy has been a political foot ball. Leaders in congress who are familiar with the situation and who realize the necessity of govern- ment co-operation and assistance in fostering our shipping industry are prevented from getting ac- tion on such measures due to delays fostered and encouraged by two by four politicians seeking cheap notoriety. Such “representatives” of the peo- a! messenger. Make it your duty to| one of those states in which the traditions o ler and honor and power of law should be of the strong: | | est, remained supine in a critical and tragie hour. “A seecone. reason is that the right of every man to work—a right as sacred as every man’s right to quit working—has been stamped on in the bloody mud of the mining field. j “But the deepest reason of all is the horrible nz- ture of the crime, the revelation of the brutality of which the human race is still capable. It is useless to turn back to the records of the riots of Chicago or East St. Louis or Omaha for a parallel to what happened at Herrin. Red as those pages were, we find in’ them at least the slight ex- cuse of conflict. “The affair at Herrin was a massacre, done not merely with deliberation but with hideous pleas: | re. “There is nothing in the history of the United States to compare with the savagery of the mob that turned the surrendered strikebreakers loose only to shoot them down; that cut their throats as they lay wounded; that cursed them as they were ying in the hospitals; that killed women and babies, and that brought the children into the mor- gue to “take a look, kid, at what your father did.” “Not even the massacre at Fort Pillow, the dark- est chapter in the story of the ciyi! war, can match the details of the Tiinois horror. “Tt was just the eld story of a mob getting started,’ one of the union miners explained. What started it? Was it the telegram from President John L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers in which he declared that ‘representatives of our organiza- tion are justified in treating this crowd (the strike- breakers) as an outlaw organization and in view- ing its members in the same light as they would view any other common strikebreakers?’ “No attack on the mine occurred until Lewis’ tele- gram was received by the local union. But surely Lewis did not mean that the men he so advised should plunge into the worst orgy of lynching that thie country has seen. True, there was not a word in his telegram advising the keeping of the peace, but he may not-haye-considered it necessary. “Whoever started the slaughter, it is a black hour*for the union’ miners, for Illinois and its of- fcers and for the whole country. Will the union help to discover and convict the murderers? Will the local and state offictals proceed as relentlessly as if the unions wielded no power? “The whole country is waiting for the answer.” T(E ESS Values of Competition STERN STATES, counties, cities and school districts should adopt uniform, policies of let- be Casper Daily Cribune HE WILL GET OVER IT—AND FORGET HER | Do Like You A Lot- >) AND PLL BE.

Did thought messages coming from the agonized minds of the people of Baltimore, Md., during the bombard. ment of Fort McHenry by the British in 1814, concentrate and evolve upon Francis Scott Key, who was held a prisoner by the British upon a vessel in the rear of the fleet, and he being in @ psychic condition, recetved and interpreted those thoughts, and so was inspired to write our great na- tional song, “The Star-Spangled Ban- ner?” And I wonder, oh! I wonder, if thought messages do not go out over the face of the earth as do the wire less messages, seeking someone in a psychic condition to recelve and in- terpret them. And when the combined thought from a wronged people singles out and concentrates upon a person, he is instilled with the hope and cotir@zo of thousands, and under this influ ence he performs a great deed of bravery and is prociaimed a hero; or he is instilled with thousands of beau- tiful thoughts sent out over thought waves, and with mind and soul exalt- ed, he writes a great poem or makes a great speech that thrills nations. The above title and the thought fol- lowing was the title to and the thought of a story by the writer and published by the Baltimore Sun, June 14, 1914, the hundredth anniversary ‘lof the writing of the song by Key, which later was the inspirational thought for a poem, “The Birth of the Star-Spangied Banner,” by Alice ting public work, purchasing supplies and publicly owned equipment to the lowest responsible bidder. Too many official bodies are arrogating to them- selves the right to deal directly with dealers, with material and machinery men, and erecting public buildings and doing public work without bids. Take this instance reported recently from Wash- ington: Cowlitz county, Washington purchased two Yuba tractors paying therefor $5,615 for 40 horse-power tractors while either the Holt Western, 10-ton or the ©. L. Best 60-horse-power specially constructed steel, designed for road work, was offered the coun- ty for several hindred dollars less. It is also stated in the press that the same firm that sold the trac- tors for $5,615.00 to the county submitted a bid to the U. 8. government on the same tractors at $3,790, a difference of $1,825 the same week. The people of CowHtz no doubt will want to know if their money is not just as good as that of the govern- ment, and why bids were not to*en. Readers will say away of there in Washington state such things might be possible. Could it hap pen in your own state?

They were feminine sneezes and while not explosive, their pro- tracted regularity was unusual. The men smiled at each other in mild amusement, “Some one has a bad summer cold,” remarked one of the men during @ brief intermission. “Sounds like early hay fever to me,” commented the other. The muffled outbursts continued. The men’s interest and curiosity in- creased. Any diversion is welcome as a time killer. Their common in- terest and amusement over the un- seen sneezer’s predicament was get- ting them acquainted. They were speculating on the cause of the lady's affliction when the corridor door opened and the office girl entered, a tle unsteady under the burden of suppressed laughter. The men grin- ned in sympathy and waited for an explanation. She forced herself to a semblance of calm an& was about to speak when the Invisible sneezer emit- ted her inevitable and monotonous “A-wchew!" Then for a hysterical minute utter abandonment to mirth relgned. “You know only half of it,” the girl ped. “Toll. us the rest,’ the men im- plored. “There's a beauty parlor next door. I glanced in as I passed. That wom- an's having her eyebrows sneezes issuing from an unseen source! Every sneez@ means a pluck.” FOR: LITTLE, FRIENDLY= .WHO LIKE ADVENTURES ADVENTURE TRAILS Blazed for You by Lewis Alien Browne “Snap out of it, Old Man,” cried Ned. “We go back to camp today!” Ted leaped out of bed. They were staying on Uncle Ben's farm for a few days while they recovered from ivy poison and now, being all well, planned to return that day to their beloved camp. “If we go back, we swim,” ex- claimed Ted as he stood by the window rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. Ned rushed over and looked out. “It’s raining cats and dogs" he said, with disappointment. “Then we'll get scratched and bitten as well as wet,” laughed good-natured Ted. “I'll tell you what we'll do,” he said as they were dressing— “Poke round the old house all day,” bemoaned Ned. “No, we'll scout around and see what we can do for Aunt Mary.” “Great " was Ned's comment and after breakfast Ted whispered, “Come out to the shed and get some white paint.’ Mystified, Ned followed him. They found white paint and sneaked into the cellar where Ted proceeded to paint the bottom step and lift of the cellar stairs, as shown in Figure 1. Then he stopped. “Finish them,” said Ned. “T have,” laughed Ted and he ex- plained that with just-the bottom step painted white Aunt Mary could al- ways seo it in the dim light, either coming: down or going up, and she wouldn't trip or get that awful sensa- tion of trying to step down another step when there wasn't any there. Aunt Mary was delighted when they explained it and Uncle Ben said that Ted was‘a regular inventor. Up in the pantry Aunt Mary was on the stepladder trying to reach something on the high top shelf, The stepladder “skidded” and threatened to fall as Ted grabbed it. “That pesky stepladder will throw me some day,” laughed Aunt Mary. “I can fix it," declared Ned, who was bound to “invent” something as well as Ted, and he went to the shed again and dug up some old, worn-out rubbers, From the corrugated heel as shown at A in Figure 2 he cut a strip (B) that just fitted the bottom of one of the legs of the ladder. He cut cut three more and fastened them on as the arrows indicate and after that the stepladder never skidded. i “I declare you boys are full of bright ideas,’ said Aunt Mary as she filled their pockets with sugar cookies. ‘The rain had stopped somewhat and the boys say Aunt Mary go out in the yard and try to tighten up her elothes- line which had sagged away down. ‘We can fix that, too,” said Ned. Aunt Mary was doubtful and explained that heavy wet clothes stretched it and dry weather tightened it until she never knew “where she was at.” The boys examined the poles and saw that the lines were put through holes on a top arm. Then they went to the old shed once more and with a key- hole saw made a wooden strip ag shown in Figure 3 at 1, 2 and 3. When they fastened this on as shown in the picture it was easy to draw the rope. through the holes at E and C and hook it down as at D. 5 “Marvelous” laughed Uncle Ben. “Ican “Splendid,” said Aunt Mary.

Meanwhile Ted tried to sew a button on his sweater jacket. “Somehow,” he complained “buttons never hold in these knitted things.” “Tt's my turn to show you a trick,” laughted Aunt Mary and she took the sweater jacket trom him, found an- other button and started to work. “T've saved the button—" began Ted. “But we need two,” sald his aunt, With New Featur ' Sep es cea and John M.
