YOMPARING the status of the American indus-| | \ trial world in 1923 with conditions that existed } at the time the present national administration came into control of public affairs, the improve- | ment to be noted is marvelous. In March of 1921 the industries of the country were in the depths of despondency. 1t was estimated at the time that were four million men out of employment. | Many authorities placed the number higher. One | labor source even made it five million. Farmers were selling their crops at far less than the cost of production, where they were able to sell at ail, and many of them were facing bankruptcy. This | Was particularly true of the cotton growers of the | south, of the grain growers of the middle west, and of the cattle growers of the mountain and south- western states. Producers of wool were unable to find « market at any price; copper mines were closed down; lumber mills were inactive; textile mille were operating on part time; the country had just gone through a period of deflation stari- ed under the leadership of men who were in control | of the federal reserve system. Under such conditions as those the present ad- ministration came into power and was expected to restore order out of chaos and start the country on_a return to normal. | There was no hesitancy on the part of those res- pousible in applying measures believed to promise beneficial resu One of the first acts was to restore to activity the War Finance corporation which the Wilson administration had permitted to die. This immensely helpful institution began at once to function along constructive yet conser- {N THE UNION IN THE SQUAREST STATE ILES CITY, Sheridan and Buffalo have not \ only willingly, but enthusiastically complied with the requirements of the Wyomimg North and South railroad i have entered into agreements as to funds id rights-of-wa,y and these cities are assured being on the line. The ceremony of striking the first pick and throwing the first shovelful of dirt will be held at Sheridan April first, and a suitable celebration to mark the pew era of prosperity has been planned. — Casper’s status is an unknown quantity as mat- ters stand. Lack of interest op the one sido to- gether with a coldness of attitude toward the prop- osition has produced the altogether unfortunate situation of estrangement on the part of the rail road project Surely Casper’s business inter ests desire another railroad, That they do not is unthinkable. There no use in permitting the situation to i is. There is less use of falling out hat has taken place in the past. The thing io do is to get together and see what can be done for the mutual benefit. An enterprising city and an enterprising group of railroad and empire build ers cannot remain apart for any great length of time. Of course, if Casper does not want the North and South road to come into the city and positively ll not k it on any terms, there is an end of it ve mat and the railroad builders will not forco th yad upon the city against its will. There is ample room outside to build a railroad and plenty of routes to reach objective points, but in this view of things Casper is the loser from a transportation standpoint. While other cities are anxious to secure stations Casper remains unresponsive and un- What is the matter? —o Regular Record Breaker NALYSTS with thelr ever-sharp pencils have been jotting down things about the sixty-seventh found it a record breaker in ions and so far as “first concerned no previous congress ou the line enthusiastic. 4 many time different in history has en its equal. Among other things in connec- tion with the Sixty-seventh that never occurred before m be mentioned: Five sessions of the United States senate and four sessions of both house and senate, No other congress ever had more than three sessions. The first session was a special one convening April 11, 1921, and adjourning November 23, 192L In less than a month, on December 5, 1921, the first regu- Jar session cony and remained in session until September Immediately after the elec- 19: tions in November, another special session was called which convened November 20, 1922, and re- mained ession until noon, December 4th, at it lapsed and at the same time the ular session constitutionally opened. session constitutionally expired on March 4. In addition the senate held a brief spe- cial session called by President Harding on March 4, 1921, which was in session until March 15. At this special session of the senate a new rec- ord was established by the president's appearing personally before the senate in executive session which time the names of the cabinet were pre sente for confirmation the first regular session occurred the zest single legislative day in the history of Con During it being in connection with the consideration the tariff in the senate and lasted from ril 20, 1922, to August without a formal the American congress a of Georgia—was seat States senate. in the considera nate of foreign 1 close a state ; Where most. needed to finance the sale of Amer- What Is Wrong? | broken in that for the first | yative lines. Money was loaned to finance the export of such American commodities as found in- adequate market at home. Funds were loaned cotton, American tobacco, American wheat, | American wool, American copper, and American live stock. As expressed in the law and in the pro-| visions of the loans made, this money was ad-| anced tc assist in the “orderly marketing” of these| products. This was not all the administration undertook to do to restore stable financial conditions. The funds available for the farm loan board were in-| creased and loans made to needy farmers at reason- able rates of interest. The new members of the reserve board responded with a more lib- policy in the matter of credits. There was! an early reduction in the rediscount rates, fol-| lowed by reduction in interest rates charged in| the commercial world. Almost coincident with these measures Con- gress enacted an emergency tariff act, which gave farmers some measure of protection against des- tructive competition fromabroad. These taken with other measures taken by the administration aided in restoring confidence in the basic American in- dustry, agriculture. Not one of these measures alone could have ac complished the desired results immediately, but in the two years that have passed since assuming control of government policies a wonderful change! has been wrought. | lt A NE The Faithful Wheelhorse | J] NCLE JOE remained in congress forty-six years. Longer than most people live, reckoned in time. And when he retired, early in the month, and bade the old halls farewell forever, he held pretty much the same general views as when he first arrived in Washington. They were plain honest convictions respecting government. It was pure doctrine from the founders, and it was al- ways in style. Methods changed in the years but principles remained always the same. It was characteristic of him, in his final ob- servations upon the work in which he had so long been engaged to say what he did. It describes ex- actly the part he bore--a wheelhorse. And what he did say bears repetition: “We talk about the leaders in Congress and what they will do to restore normalcy, but leaders in eral 77 You Wu% So BLAME. ANXIOUS To HoLD IT AN’ WoRK ‘TH?

When I drove such a team many years ago I relied more on the wheel-horses that wore heavy breeching and held back on the down- grade, as well as pulled for all they were worth on the up grade. They were not so gay as the leaders, with the ‘lighter harness sometimes wearing plumes and bells to make a fine showing and mu- sic as they pranced along at the head of the team, giving tho impression they were the whole guiding power instead of being directed by a single line from the driver astride the near wheel horse. “T have seen some leaders in Congress who re- minded me of the leaders in that old four-horse team. I have seen leaders in my old four-horse team attempt to run away when my only source of salvation was the wheel horses, which set back in the breeching and held the wagon to the road. “It is not always, or often, pleasant to be a wheel horse, either drawing the heayy load along the road, or in Congress, for the galleries—sometimes the press gallery, too—pay more attention to the} leaders, especially when they show their mettle and start to run away. They are dramatic and the horses guarding the wheels are not. The wheel- horses get kicked and abused for not keeping the wagon in the road and sometimes from getting enough momentum to run over the leaders, as well as the wheel horses themselves. “TI should like to see more of these steady wheel horses in Congress and fewer brilliant and mag- netic leaders, who too often are inspired to start something that will be immediately popular but | in the end embarrassing and sometimes dangerous. | I have seen leaders work passion to tatters, forget- ting the breeching, pushing into the collar, until there was a real smash of the whole program. “This is a time for heavy breeching, not too many bells and plumes of eloquence and not too many new trails. We have difficulties enough ahead without trying to blaze new legislative and | government roads for increased expenditures. Better keep the treasury truck on the best-known | taxatic That's the only way I know to get out of the woods now, as in the past.” IN cur Certain-teed tine of paints, enamels, and varnishes, you will Jind everything that you need to make your home more attractiv and comfortable, Buy it at Print Headquarters Exchan | 209-215 West First Street ITH 6% gallons of Certain-teed paint you can cover a bungalow like this (36'x40') with two good coats, and at a paint cost of less than $25.

Frank 8. Smith, state fish and game commissioner, here for a few days, just returned from a trip into the Granger country, and the Jack- son Hole district. He states that about 280 head of antelope are being fed in the Granger region. ‘There are three bands of elk or approximately 5,000 head being fed ‘hay in the Jackson country. Practic- ally no loss is evidenced or antici- pated, except that some 20 head of calves have died. An examination of the mouths of 19 of these dead calves disclosed the fact that they died from eating fox tall fn hay fed to them. Mr, Smith went north to within 28 miles of Yellowstone park, where there is a small bunch tf e few hun- dred head cf elk wintering. In the Gros Ventre region there are between 3,500 and 4,000 head, near where Fish Creek empties into Gros Ventre. These animals are in excellent shapes, for there is less snow in that vicinity than there has been for ten years.

The frost is practically all out of the ground and | the moisture from the recent snows, | added to that which was stored up in the ground late last fall, has cer- tainly placed the soil in condition to} give crops and pastures a wonderful start when spring opens.
