Register complaints before $ May 5 to May 9 From May 5 to May 9 inclusive will be a very important period to every industry and every producer in Wyoming and the Rocky Mountain region. For in these five days the actual produc tion and the people will be brought together for a better acquaintance. The people will learn who does the big and the important things in this region, what it is, and how it is done. is the object of the Tribune's Industrial Exposition to be held during the ne mentioned. For a better understanding between producer and consumer, for an enlarged market for the producer, for a wider advertisement of resources in raw materials, in finished products, for a general exploitation of the merits of the Rocky miountain region in each and every particular. These are other objects cf the exposition. An opportunity to get together, to note progress, compare accomplishments and to con- fer upon improvements will result in greater direct benefit to the Rocky mountain region than any other plan that can be devised. Therefore the Tribune’s Industrial Exposi- tion, The Fruits of the Combination The congress has been in session more than four months. It has not enacted any jor legis- lation. It has passed but one appropriation bill. It has not enacted any laws to relieve the agri- cultural situation. It has not enacted a tax re- duction law. With the exception of a few pri- vate bills it has done nothing in the way of leg- islation. It has not even proposed or advanced any con- structive program. On the other hand it, has} blocked the program outlined by the president in his message at the opening of the session. It has sought to create political sensations rather than enact laws. It has usurped the powers of the courts and} grand juries and made a mockery of them rather than perform its functions of a legislative body. | It has retailed slander and gossip rather than} discussed economic ‘problems. | It has been a continuous performance of wind jamming and ballyhooing. On the part of the} senate it has been a rather low type of vaude-| ville in which Heflin, Carav and Harrison and other yowlers held the stage and monopo lized the spot light. The blame for all this does not rest with Re-| publicans. They are not in control of either branch of the congress. Test votes in both the} house and the senate clearly show that the rad- ical-Democratic combination is in control of both branches of congress. The fact that this combination is in control of both branches of congress proves that it could put over a legisla- tive program had it the desire to do so. This should be of especial significance to the agricultufal sections of the country, where the need of relief of some kind is very urgent. Demo. cratic and lical members of congress elected in 1922 made their campaign upon the ground wanted to go to congress to help the that the: farmer. Those who were loudest in their prom- ises to this effect haye been the least concerned to redeem them. They have not made any effort to carry out their pldeges. The radical senators and representatives elect- ed from agricultural sections have spent their time since coming to congress reveling in polit- ical gossip, all of it untrue, most of it mischic- vous, and some of it malicions and slanderous. They have resolved themselves into amateur Hawkshaws to unravel mythical villainies which never existed except in the perverted minds of ex-convicts, cheap liars and blackmailers and venegeful individuals smarting under criminal indictments in federal courts. The things done and the things left undone this congress must be charged directly and ly to the radical-Democratic combination, which was effected early in the session in both houses oyer. the protest and tho opposition of | Republican leadership and membership. The whole situation should forcibly. remind the country of the necessity for a logislative body which has a dependable and a reliable Re- publican majority which will co-operate with the Republican administration in carrying out a con sistent program of legislation which is dictated by common sense, honest motives, and the fun damentals of political economy. by The Wet Champion Governor Al Smith's support for the Demo- | nomination for the presidency reeks of oO bolsterously that the aroma ttert t 1 the national ynblicar t bill pending { ded for an, executive veto in both branches of the rnor Smith is hailed as the greatest con structive statesman of all time, by his fellow} wets, but the outbreak here and there for him) portends a great storm over prohibition in the New York Democratic state convention, which sibly will take rank with that memorable en vunter between the late Bourke Cockran and are busily en po William J. Bryan in the Democratic national convention at San Francisco in 1920. Cockran has departed from earth ‘and no more will his eloquent voice be raised’ for rum; but within the Democratic party there are lesser orators who will not fail to champion the cause of their old friend General Barleycorn. The President's Program Now that Democratic leaders in congress have declared their intention not to obstruct further the work of the legislative branch of the govern- ment, it is interesting to review briefly the ad. ministration policies mapped out by President ginning of the present session. Here are some| brief quotations: “The taxes of the nation must be reduced now | S°™me of them took it as much as prudence will permit.

Such attempts at argument have been so often disproved by the force of circumstances it seems folly to stand on the hustings and pro- claim the virtues of a low tariff policy to Amer- ican citizens. One cannot but wonder at the tenacity with which some men stick by the old oft exploded ideas of free trade in this country. Having tried the policy of the free traders on several memorable occasions during the past half century, and those occasions haying brought disaster to every business interest of the coun- try, why should there be a ghost of a chance for the anti iff party to creep into power under the old flag.? If one will not learn by experience how under the sun will he learn? Experience is a dear teacher, and this experience fell heavily upon the farming community during the last term of Grover Cleveland, Under that free-trade regime butter which now fetches fifty cents the pound was retailed at seven cents. Egga eight cents the dozen, wheat drawn many miles to market, go- ing for thirty-eight cents a bushel. That was free-trade with a vengeance. Do the farmers wish to get back to that state of affairs? That was a condition and not a the- ory that confronted the American farmer, and yet he is expected to believe the smooth palayer of such free-trade organs as the New York World and once again place in power the party of free trade. A man who will not look first after the inter-’ ests of his own family is worse than an infidel, What must we say then of the man who will discard the experience of former years and put himself by his vote back into the clutches of free foreign competition, which on every occasion in the past has wrecked domestic industry and beg- gared the tiller of the soil? The schools of our country are much to blame for these recurring adventures in industrial free trade. Why is it that a large majority of college professors are tinctured with the free-trade pol- son? It is never safe to trust the schoolmasters too far, They indulge in theories, fine spun and ro- mantic, yet often wholly impracticable when put to the test. College presidents, normal students and teach- ers of the higher schools are afflicted with their sense of superiority, and finding a fascination in the word.free-trade, annex it to the curriculum and feed it out to thone under their tutelage in doses sufficient to win the young minds from the stern facts in the case. An American free-trader is an enemy to his country whether he knows it or not. The cases ef want and suffering which have at times af- flicted the country because of theso false the | ories being carried into execution ought to call a halt to mich dangerous doctrines. Only when he experiences it himself will the modern man believe some of the truths of his- tory. The country today is in a prosperous con- dition. Will it he safe for the people to trifle with our presence condition and throw down the party of protection and again trv the free-trade policy which when no war intervenes, has brought wr and ruin to almost every Ameri can industry The whole nation will hail with great glee and profound’ hope for the future, the state- ment, that the Bible doubled its circulation on the Pacific const last year.

The section of America’s business structure where 44.8 per cent of all workers are employed; where $35,- 500,000,000 is the figure that repre- sents the annual buying power. The roots of America's business struc: ture sink deeper into industry than into any other line of work in which mankind fs engaged. We cannot escape, if we would, our dependence upon the great In- dustries that modern / civilization leans upon. Industrial influence is ever present, moulding our habits and becoming a vital part of our daily existence. The switch that lights the eleetric toaster on your table reflects that great and growing Industry devoted to the manufacture and distribution of electrical appliances, And back of that {s the huge central station field, whose whirling dynamos gen- erate and harness electric current, without which your electrical appli- ance would be a cold, dead thing.

And handling these machines and processes, doing the labor and direct- ing it, buying the equipment, sup- plying the Engineering brains and holding the many positions which In- dustry requires to man the shops are 18,673,000 people. And there is another thought con- nected with Industry that is often inclined to escape us. Industry today is buflt on. engi- neering; on the scientific principles, processes and equipment developed by the electrical, the civil, the me- chanical, the industrial and the chemical engineer. Industry is the canvas upon which the Engineer paints his picture—the plastic medium through which man- kind receives the fruits of his en- deavors. And upon this industrial canyas is being traced, line by line, the progress of individuals, of cities, of states and nations. Without Industry to make possible the dreams of the Engineer, we should lack the benefits of the age that surronds us, in our homes and in our businesses. For behind every manufacturing requirement ts the genius of the Engineer—experiment- ing, planning, directing. showing Industry how to build the vast struc. tures that house it, how to harness power, how to machine its parts, how to control complex and delicate chemical engineering, processes, how to recover waste and profitably use by products. If Industry is the workshop of the world, then the Engineer is the de- signer who cuts the patterns, “Without. imagination you can not rise to the heights." “No, nor fall to the depths,” replies the second character. “A full development of this idea will be found in the daily dispatches from Washington.— Houston Post. .
