It should be made a matter of honor that men and women who get all the advantages and protec tion of government and make a living in a common- swealth should pay something. What better certificate of citizenship or proof of registration to entitle one to vote at an election that imposes taxes or issues bonds than the fact that you have a tax receipt? Another essential of development affects indus- trial conditions—reduction of unemployment to a minimum—a system that would leave no excuse for tramps or idleness. Every county in place of a poor farm sliould have fn tract of wild land being cleared and subdued, with a place for the unemployed to eat, sleep and work and not be robbed. It is foolish and criminal to allow hundreds of men and women in each county to go unemployed when they might be earning a living and be creat- ing valuable productive property and getting homes. Ra Se The Fate of. Traitors HERE IS NOT a state in the uxion where a man can be re-elected tothe governorship or to any other executive office if he fails in his duty in the preservation of law and order. and the protection of life and property. It is true that an emergency exists which calls for unusual courage and ability, but the exercise of unusual courage and ability is what governors mre for. In ordinary times ordinary men can per- form executive functions. Men who have sought the high office of governor of a state and have been entrusted with its duties and responsibilities have assumed to possess more than ordinary fitness for the position. Moreover, they have taken a solemn oath to support the jaws and constitutions of their states as chief executives. Upon them, therefore, rests a special responsibility which they cannot evade. The maintenance of peace and order is primarily a state and not a national governmental function. Only when the power of the state proves inadequate is the national government called upon to act. This fact should and will be kept in mind by the citizens of the several states who will hold their own state executives responsible for the exercise of every pos- sible power in the preservation of peace and main- tenance of public safety. All the world despises a coward. Not eyen the criminal has respect for the officer of the law who shirks his duty. All the world despises a traitor. Not even among the beneficiaries of his treason could Beneprot Arysup find associates. If the call of duty will not induce an executive to enforce the laws ,the fear of obloquy should spur hhim to action. The public servant who becomes a traitor to his trust has no future better than: the ostracism and ignominy of Bengvict Annotp unless he has the decency to shorten his career by follow- ing the example of Jupas’ Iscanrror.

Meanwhile! the Times can try its sermonette on the correspond- ent who finds the enforcement department a failure. Women in Congress se ELL INTENDED, no doubt, is the suggestion | —almost 2 demand—that hereafter the house of representatives in congress shall be equally divided between th two sexes,” states the Boston Transcript. “But it is equally without doubt that it is an ill- conceived and most undesirable proposal. “hat is not because of any’ opposition to having women elected to congress, nor because of any doubt of there being enough women competent to fill half the places in the house. We should hate like every- thing to think that there were not tens of thousands of women all over the country very much better fitted in all respects to serve in congress than the majority of the men who are now rattling around the big dome, Nor is it because a ‘fifty-fifty’ ratio would mean too many women. = “The objection is to the election of even one woman to congress just because she is a woman. There is precisely the same objection to electing a man to congress just because he is a man. If the spirit of the nineteenth amendment is fully to pre- vail, there should be in such matters no sex dis- crimination. Men and women alike are American citizens, voters and potential legislators and execu- tives in the publie service. The question concern- ing a candidate should not relate to sex but to fitness for the place. We should regret to see women voting for a woman candidate just because she was a woman, against a man candidate whom they knew to be more competent. So we should re- gret to see men voting for a man just because he was a ian, against a woman whom they knew to be the Seticr candidate. “There could scarcely be anything more perni- cious, more calculated to make woman suffrage a instead of a blessing, than a political or par- an division of the nation between the two sexes. Such a division could not possibly be upon any legitimate issues of governmental policy, such as those upon which Republicans and Democrats have divided. As American citizens, women are inter- ested in precisely the same principles and policies of legislation and administration that men are. The} same considerations which impel some men to favor protection and others free trade similarly impel women to do the same, and so with every other pub- lic issue. “Jt is indeed to be doubted whether it 1s desir- able for women to maintain permanently political clubs and other such organizations separately from men. It was inevitable that for a time such or- ganizations should exist, carried over from those which were formed during the suffrage campaign. Perhaps they have thus far been useful for afford- ing women the instruction in political matters which they are supposed—not altogether justly—to need more than men, It seems certain that in the long run the best results will be attained in having the two sexes act together in political discussions and campaigns, just as they must vote together at} the polls. There is all the more reason for that if, | as some contend, men and women regard public af- fairs from essentially different points of view; for it will be to the advantage of each sex to have the benefit of the other’s opinions. “A division of congress or of parties on the line of sex would, in fine, be a most offensive and mis- chievous form of class government, which is of all things most obnoxious to the genius of the Ameri- can republic, It is well for citizens to differ and to divide into parties over questions of public pol- icy. It would be altogether evil for thsm to do so on lines of class, of social rank, of occupation or residence, or of sex, We want no parties of rich and poor, of urban and rural, or of male and fe- cu se The discovery was made} i" reading in the Tribune some political |sions, the lastmamed would be the worst. mele; and of such unnatural and pernicious divi, simply by becoming shorter and short- “The politicians and henchmen of Carey are putting out eleventh hour propaganda that if Hay js elected the Yellowstone highway will receive no further attention.

It fs announced by the Harney County News, published at Burns, Ore., that the government has au- thorized the sele of nearly 900,000,000 feet of ripe timber on the government domain, this timber to he used for lumbering purposes within the next few years. This sale of ripe titnber will be an instance of utilization . of natural resources, which, if not use, would deteriorate with age or perhaps suffer damage from forest fires. The account of the transaction cor- veys the information that this sale of timber is out of an aggregate stand- ing supply of 10,009,000,000 feet of timber ir. the same district. The re- mainder of the timber will be left in the ownership and control of the gov- ernment, to be sold as there may be demand and as conditions may seem to require. To the casual observer the sale of nearly 900,000,000 feet of timber would merely mean the marketing of that timber and the payment of the money, a few hundreds of thousands of dol- lars, into the federal treasury. As a matter of fact, it means much more than that. In order to manufacture the timber into lumber {t must be first cut and logged out of the woods, which will require the employment of a large amount of labor—the class of labor that always receives a high wage. Saw mills must be erected and operated, A railroad must be built reaching into the timbered country and connecting with the main iine of transcontinental transportation, That {s what the marketing of the timber will mean directly to the com- munity! But {t means much more than that indirectly. Many of the workmen in the logging camps and the saw mills will be homesteaders who have gone upon unimproved government lands and who are faced by the necessity of finding some ott- side occupation in order to make a living for themselves and families dur- ing the period of development of their farms. Employment in the nearby lumber camp will enable them to earn a livellhood and at the same time be near thelr homesteads and their fam- ilies. Moreover, the construction of the railroad for logging and transporta- tion of lumber will at the same time furnish new and much more converil- ent transportation facilities for the homesteaders who are endeavoring to make crops grow where only sage- brush grew before. Tho transporta- tion line, established chiefly for lum- bering purposes, will later became a means of transportation for ull kinds of agricultural crops, livestock, etc., and also for the carrying of those sup- plies which the farmers must buy from the outside, This brief review of # transaction and fts significance in Temote sec- tion. of the country, illustrates what the Republican administration is en- deavoring to do all over the country where any problem presented re- lating to industrial development, A Republican congress passed the water power bill under which water powers Enriched the world with apple sauce, The evil fame of Bden checked; And makes us more than just suspect Why lucky Noah wasn't -vrecked! —Maurice Morris.

It may sound ridiculous, but it is a tragic fact, nevertheless, that cat- tle are being slaughtered merely for the sake of the hides. Before I left Buenos Aires the price of cows was $2 each in American money. The cat- tle men were even selling on the hoof cow with a calf for $2. Sheep selling for $1 a head. Cattle a ing killed by the thousands for their hides and to get them away from the pastures.” $ How long could American producers of cattle and sheep keep going if sub- jected to unrestricted competition with Argentine in these products? And why should, our producers be Penalized because Of Argentinian over production? The Democratic tariff Iaw of 1894 finelly forced sheep ‘to a price of $1 a head. We had 45,000,000 sheep in the United States when that law was paseed, and the number had de- creased to 86,000,000 before the Ding- ley Iaw took effect In 1897. By 1903 the number had increased to 64,000,- 000. he Democratio law of 1913 put the number down to 35,000,000, be- cause it put wool on the free list. We counted 36,600,000 head of cattle in 1894 and 90,000,000 in 1887. The num- ber rose to 50,000,000 in 1908, and a large decrease was registered under the Underwood tariff, The emergency variff law helped cut the situation materially and the new tariff law passed Saturday will give permanent aid to cattle and shetp raisers if the measure gets through conference without mater- fal change. ——— Classified ads in the Tribune are winners and possibly the keys we Etee Seah erery Cac paad at ottice wit “Figures don’t lie,” quoted Ted. “Fifteen timen 1,100 is 16,500, and. “What sre you driving at?” asked Ned, and Ted explained that every count represented one second.

After they had recovered from the shock Ned suddenly remembered something and jumped. . “Perhaps we'll get a ‘lightning tube’ over there!’ he cried. “Who's daffy now.” asked Ted. “Just as soon as this storm stops we'll row over and see,” said Ned. “What do you mean by ‘lightning tube'?" insisted Ted when he saw that Ned wasn't joking. “Just wait, I'll show you, if there is one,” and Ned became mysterious.
