When I assumed the ownership of Tribune in October, 1914, it was a country weekly with 1,200 to 1,400 circulation and crude me- chanical equipment; and Casper was a tewn of some e hundred inhabitants, Today The Tribune roughly metropolitan daily newspaper, with ulation, and complete in every detail with est class equipment known to the nowapaper- world; and Casper 1s @ thoroughly metropol- itan city of twency-five thousand people and one of the most important industrial centers in the entire Rocky Mountain region, The two institutions have grown big and strong together. Woven into the success of The Daily Tribune, since its establishment in October, 1916, is the friendship and loyaity of the people of Casper, the best people 1 have ever known or lived among. I have endeav- ored to show my own appreciation by giving them in return the best I knew or the best I could obtain. With the completion of The Tribune's permanent home in January, 1921, it was enabled to occupy its rightful place in the world and perform its public service with greater advantages to itself and to its constituents. All of these things are attested by The Tribune you receive every day. It is with mingled regret and satisfaction that I pass The Tribune over to its new owner. Regret at parting with a creation that has used up eight of the best years of my life. Satisfaction in passing on to competent hands # perfect machine in perfect work- ing order, capable of still higher performance than may be under my direction. The new owner of The Tribune, Mr. Charles W. Barton, will not be @ stranger in Casper He has been here frequently and is directly responsible for calling world-wide attention to this clty when he set before the readers of the New York Morning Tele graph its industrial importance and the vast resources of Natrona county, in a publication which has re mained a standard refsrence work ever since, Mr. Barton assumes the entire management of the business today and i retire, to devote my attention to other affairs. He will earn your good opinion at once, will have your confidence, because he merits it, and you will find in him an extraordinarily cap able newspaper man, who will jealousty maintain the established high character of the newspaper and become @ valuable addition to the Casper business world. ‘With the highest epprectation of the many favors and kindnesses shown me during the eight years of labor among you and asking like consideration of my successor, I say farewell. o 8,000 cit J. B. HANWAY. How Governments Help Ships [SzESS congress passes a ship subsidy bill, the United States will he the only important nation of the world not granting government aid in the maintenance of a merchant marine, Every other leading nation, recognizing the importance of regu- lar trade routes and the necessity for merchant ships as a naval adjunct, provides some sort of as- sistance to private merchant shipping. It is as mecessary to the country’s welfare as the building of domestic highways. Great Britain extends this aid in the form of mail subventions and in one case has combined this with a construction Ioan. For the current year Great Britain is spending 137,390 pounds sterling on her trans-Atlantic subsidy, 160,000 pounds on India service, 15,855 pounds to South Africa and 80,000 pounds to continental Europe. Japan established her merchant marine by can- structional and operating bounties. The construc- tional bounties were discontinued in 1918, appar- ently because the number of vessels was deemed adequate. The oprating subsidy for 1921 was 7,402,- 295 yen with an additional 1,450,000 yen for mail subventions. The government of Canada makes payments for the maintenance of coastal and commercial services. These amounted to over a million dollars for 1921, and this was the lowest for several years. In ad. dition to that, the Canadian government contrib- | Fate per mile, and also large |honor of the United States. from Canada to the West America. Australia has a government-owned merchant | marine. New Zealand contributes to the support of the line to British Columbia and also to the maintenance of a line to San Francisco. France kept up a ship bounty system prior to the war and during the war had a government-owned merchant marine. The ships have been sold to pri vate concerns and the government is paying 57,500,-’ 000 francs in subyentions this year. | Italy has used various bounties and subventions | for many years and for the current year is paying} 240,000,000 lire for subventions and 468,700,000 lire! for construction bounties. Holland subsidizes lines operating to the East In j dies and pays mail subventions to trans-Atlantic end South American lines. Spain pays an operating subsidy to a company operating trans-Atlantic lines, based on a specified indies and Cotta) i subsidies to lines op-} erating to African ports. | Germany utilized mail subventions almost ex! iusively prior to the war and built up an extensive merchant marine under that system. Since the war the German goyernment has paid twelve billion} marks to reimburse the shipping industry for its war-time or treaty-imposed losses | In view of the policies pursued by the other lead. ing maritime nations it is difficult to understand how anyone can expect a merchant marine to be} operated under the American flag Without some sort of government assistance, especially since it is notorious that costs of operation are greater in the United States than elsewhere. + Have Done Our Part DiSBEGARD of truth exhibited by some of the leaders of the Democratic press is illi>trated | by the following from Senator Hrrcmcocx’s news- paper, the Omaha World-Herald: “While the allies have been bankrupting Ger many and bankrupting themselves with heavy taxes | for enormous armaments, the United States has) stood by, refusing to lend a hand to save the situa- tion.” That statement is not justified by the facts. We shall not discuss the issue so far as it relate to] the financial affairs of the allies and Germany, but} we deny the aspersion upon the good name and} The United States has taken the lead in every: | thing that has been done looking toward a practical plan of reducing expenditures for armaments. The proposed league of nations was a league of war, not for peace. President Harding called the Washing: ton conference at which the leading nations of the earth agreed upon a plan of reduction of armaments and the news columns of nrrencock’s paper have! carried accounts of the plans for scrapping ships | not only in this country but in other countries party to the treaties. Newspapers throughout the country have published pictures showing the pro-| cess of destruction of ships of war. The United | States and other nations have made provision for reduced personne! in both army and navy, and this| was made possible through the initiative of the United States. Yet the Omaha World-Herald would have us believe that the United States has stood by and refused to help save the world from bank- ruptey. But the statement above quoted is untrue if ap- plied to industrial America instead of to the gov- ernment. Statistics of our foreign trade show that in the last fiscal year we sold Europe goods to the amount of $1,200,000,000 in excess of the amount of goods we received from Europe. In the year pre- vious we sold to Europe goods to the amount of $2,500,000,000 in excess of the amount of goods we received from Europe. We certainly did not get the balance in cash, so we must have sold that amount of goods on credit. In thé past two years, long after the war ended, we gave Europe a credit of $3,700,000,000 when she alroady owed us in goy- ernment and private accounts some twenty billions of dollars. But that is not all. We have not only tried to help Europe through our governmental activities, and through our captains of industry, but our phil- anthropical organizations, with the co-operation of the government, have sent direct aid to the suffer- ing in both Europe and Asia. The good people of Nebraska who take pride in the good name of the United States should present these facts to Senator Hircrcock and to the World- Herald and ask for an explanation of the charge that the United States has stood by and refused to help. | Os Veteran Rehabilitation ‘HE TREMENDOUS work the government is doing in rehabilitating disabled soldiers of the world war is little understood or appreciated by the public at large. At the present time there are over 130,000 students receiving instruction in 3,228 schools and colleges throughout the country, as well as in business establishments, shops and on farms. Every one of them has been found by medi- cal authorities to be disabled either bodily or men tally in the service of the United States. Ninety per cent of them are enlisted men, representing with as many as seven dependents. The educational work is under the direction of the veterans’ bureau, and has already advanced to ‘ Che Casper Daily Cribune 39 ag FAIR PLAY FOR THE FARMER’S WIFE ‘The farm: woman is coming into her‘own.

Discovery of Copper Leaching The facts concerning the leaching process of copper recovery are very ‘interesting and the lucky accident which brought about the discovery by which millions of pounas of copper which formerly went to waste are now recovered every year, is worth relating. In Novenber, 1989, there was a dir astrous fire in the copper mines in the Butte district of Montana. The heat from this fire caused a slow roasting ef the copper sulphide bearing min- erals, exactly as happens in the first operation in a smelter. The resulting sulphats of copper dissolved in thé water which was pumped into the mines in large quantities to extinguish the fires. Reaching the surface this water flowed across a wagon road in 1 shallow stream. The local junk dealer, one Jim Led tord, allowed his wagon to stand for some time in this stream. When he drove home he discovered m heavy de. posit of copper on the iron tires of his wagon wheels. Jim was no metal- lurgist, but he was keen enough to see that he had discovered something. He applied for and obtained the right to control the entire water supply from the mines. This he diverted into a yard in which he stacked huge piles of junk. By the time his contract ran out he had cleaned up about $100,000. Later the handling of this phase of re- ical. Oo usekeepin 1S hington Mrs. HARRIET TAYLOR UPTON are LWatKtora Zxecutive Committee !

Ned thought he was getting “daffy” and said so. On the way home Ted kept his eyes to the ground and picked up several bird feathers, from blue jay, yellow hammer and one red dne from a red- wing or cedar bird which pleased him | | immensely. Rack at camp Ted sot out some snell hooks, his mending outfit of cloth, scissors, thread, ~vire pliers and such things and spread them out. “Oh, now I see,” eaild Ted. You are going to try and make some artificini flies.” “I've never made any, but there's nothing like trying.” said Ted. Then he had a bright idea. He hunted up ® sporting goods catalog that he had and turned to pictures of files. With these as a guide especially a page of| flies printed in colors, he started to/| try his:hand at it. First he sorted his feathers and) with very fine copper wire he fastened the first feather as at (A). “That's * he said laughingly —he left some of the wire out as at (A-A). “Now for the body,” and he ‘wound some red flannel about t! shank of the hook with same plece of wire until it looked ike (B). “Next we must disgu! or the trout won't bit { tened a downy feather in as at (C)| Next he fastened the “wing feathers" at, (E) and (F) and secured them by sewing on a little cap as at (G). By means of his catsJog he soon learned the names and appearance of many files, such as “Dusty mille ‘Royal Coachman,” “Scarlet Ibis,” ‘Profes- sor,” “Doctor” and so on. It is easy to secure such a catalog from any standard sporting foods house.
