Our people are always ready to patronize such companies as come to us. We even grow 80 show hungry at times that we welcome some very punk vaudeville and other forms of amusement that we would pass up coldly could we but have tho enter- tainment we would prefer. Tg is no wonder, then, that we prick A Raed ears whén the annnal Cheutaugna is annonced and hunt up the program and arrange to send the fam- ily in relays, the members choosing the afternoons and evenings when the program presents the most particular appeal to the taste of the individual member. bg This year there is an unusually strong and var- ied program. The most talented artists in America take part at the several sessions. All that is best in instrumental and vocal music, including grand opera, dramatics, oratory, wit and humor, with a wealth of special features of entertainment new to Chautauqua audiences. The Chautauqua is one of the greatest institu- tions in American life today. It is the best thing we get here or.elsewhere. No other institution in the land combines the quality of instruction and enterta{nment furnished by the [Chautauqua at such modest cost. Casper people owe a larger debt of gratitude to the gentlemen who annually make possible the ap- pearance of the solo and group performers who pro- vide the high class features of a Ohautauqua week. The Chautauqua, which is under the Ellison- White direction comes to Casper, opening the week of Augnst 16 and every single number will be more than worth attending. Highjacking Building Material You would scarcely believe it, yet amy contractor, Yutifer, plumber or other person concerned in tho construction business in Casper will vouch for the fact. There is so much plain stealing of material and supplies used in building that the belief is warranted that an organized gang exists. Those engaged in building have grown used to losses suf- fered in this manner, and have learned to station watchmen at buildings in the course of erection. It is not one partichlar thing that is wrongfully taken, it is everything, Lumber, shingles, plumb- ing, hardware, loose or nailed down, or placed in position, it makes no difference. If materiad can be secured and loaded upon trucks or other vehicles it goes during the dead hours of night and work- men must be supplied the next morning before they can proceed with the job. Think of it, sixty-five bundles of lath was one item purloined night befor last on one job in a quiet and respectable part of the city. It is only a fair sample of what thieves will do. < Building material in Casper is high-priced and valuable and the hardships worked upon builders and contractors is carrying the joke a litle too far. Those who employ guards at night have little complaint, but those who leave work unprotected find plenty of occasion for peevishness at losses sustained. The Speed of Lies Some long time ago, some guy sald, “A Iie travels on horseback.” That was speedy going for that day, but it doesn’t do for this day. Like everything else the lie has speeded up. It travels now by a series of ways, automobile, airplane, telegraph, telephone and wireless, Sometimes it travels by all these methods at once and thereby secures wider cir culation. But the wide-awake lie no longer travels by horseback. A pair of lies have been racing over the country for quite some time. One is that American farmers due to economic conditions in Europe, have lost their foreign markets. The other is the statement that farm prices go up or down as exports of farm products go up or down, and the prosperity of the American farmer depends upon an increase in his exports. It is needless to-say where these lies originated, for most folks know that they came from the ad- vocates of the league of nations. From those who desire America to become involved in European do- mestic affairs. They were told in order to deceive the agricultural sections of this country which are strongly opposed to becoming concerned in EBuro- pean quarrels, This propaganda a; American traditions through press, pulpit and platform is purreyed by no other interest than the one named, and why Americans should repudiate American principles may be explained possibly from the fact that the checks in payment for the service rendered como from some international source that will derive profit through the consummation of jnst such an arrangement as the league of nations will foster. Every official document touching upon the sub- ject of foreign markets issncd by any department of our goverument, fornishes conclusive proof that the farmer tod: ing Europe yastiy greater quantities of 2 1 products than he did in any year prior 1 War. The American farmer is selling more to Enrope S/they did a year ago or the average for the last [Ike one who came in years agone with stalwart today than he did prior to the World War, because Europe is not yet back to its normal agricultural production, The nearer it approaches the produc- tion of crops and livestock of pre war days, the less the American farmer will sell to Europe Those who hold out to him the hope of increased markets in the event Hurope is put on its feet are doing the worst possible reg His trouble today is over-production, and to him to stimulate production in the ectation of getting a market, which he never ‘will have, is to add to his misfor- tunes. The truth is, the American farmer must face the |fact that he will sell less and less to Europe from now on. His problem is either to increase his do- mestic market or decrease his own production. The lie that farm prices go up or down with farm exports is even more inexcusable than its running mate. There never has been any ground for such a statement. The records of farm prices and farm exports for over a generation show that there is not a scintilla of truth in this allegation. To the contrary, the years of greatest exports have, as a rule, been years of lowest prices in the articles exported. No better illustration can be joffered of that fact than the relation between cot- ton exports and prices. For a period of years prior to the World war, cotton exports ran from 8,500,000 jto 9,500,000 bales a year, and the prevailing price | was 11 to 12 cents a pound. Today, cotton is selling at 22 cents a pound, and our exports are half the pre-war record. Two years ago this month, cot- ton was selling at-12 to 18 cents, while exports were over a million more bales than they are today. We are exporting more pork products today than }a year ago or than the average for any of the past three years, while hogs are selling at less than three years. The farmer well knows that in 1921 ‘hho received \less for practically every variety of his products than any previous period in a number of years, |yet the exports of farm products in that year were the greatest of any year in American history. These are the facts and any interest that sup- presses them or attempts to give them a different meaning does so for the purpose of deception. The purpose of such deception is obvious. It sim- ply means that the political press and politicians back of the league movement are more interested in gaining party advan than they are in help: ing the farmer, or even telling him the truth. They are more interested in getting the United States involved in European entanglements than in soly- ing domestic agricultural problems. They are will- Ang in return for the pay check to sacrifice the pros- ‘perity and welfare of eur agricultural interests and even tie us up to a lot of decrepit and bank- rupt powers of Europe which would us to support them, re-establish them in the business of government and likely supply them with financial Aaa tA Mt The Stetnoscup<— wpe Casper Daly crmune ~ By Fontaine Fox Litrpe WinLia Jones Gives OUT A WHICH HAD “THEM ALL GUESSING. on a Sue MUS’ Be FepLin’ BETTER CoS “MH’ DocToR 1S MAKIN’ HER PORTEND suss A RADIO” . \ backing while they experimented in wars and other family rows common in Europe for at least two thousand years last past. | Have Faith in Calvin Coolidge The following was written by Thomas T. John- ston of Amherst, Mass., on the occasion of the se- lection of Calvin Coolidge as the Republican can- didate for vice president, June 16, 1920. The sen- timent expressed comes with greater force today when Calvin Coolidge has come into the presidency, With might of mind, and strength of soul, and dig- nity of duty, Made rugged by democracy—ont Nation’s splendid beauty— Democracy, where humble men may grow to re gal power, : And serve with faith their fellowmen in problems of the hour, step and vision Whose honest heart brought hope and help in times of indecision, | Who came irom out the-solitudes of forests, plain and lowly, And brought to all our-multitudes a passion high and holy, So, Lincoln-like, you come today, with heart and humble spirit : From porary = environment, with earnest skill and merit; ; The heart-break of humanity demands your conso- cration,— We need your strength and sanity throughout our shaken Nation To stabilize and energize our land in every border ‘And bring the solidarity, the calm of law and order. The annals of your living heart are all a simple story,— No pomp, no pride, no petty, weak pretensiousness of glory, But quiet toiling at your task, with steady calm devotion, So free from all that frenzy that perturbs and makes commotion, Your mind we:l-ordered, and your soul with firm majestic beariuz Are quick and clear to see the trath, full orbed and 80 unerring, ’ The genius of hard work is yours—its unremitting ardor; You only let one labor go for duties that are harder.
