Continuing, he further says: “The one thing which we seek with insatiable desire is to forget ourselves. To be surprised out of our propriety. To lose our sempiternal mem- ory. And to do something without knowing how or why; in short to draw a new circle.” The way of life is wonderful. It is by 2 Cromwell, observed: “A 1 knows not whither he is ge ory gives eloquent proof of this. Dreams and drunkenness, the use of drugs, are the semblance and counterfeit of this oracular genius and hence their dangerous attraction to men. For the me reason they ask the aid of wild passions, as in gambling and ‘war, to ape in some manne> “those flames and generosities of the heart.” Yet people wish to be settled. They should see that only so far as they are unsettled is there any hope for them. In every moment is new; the past is alwa swallowed and forgotten. Nothing is secure but life, transit and the energising spirit. No love can be bound by oath to ¢ are it against a higher love. » truth is so sublime but it may be trivial tomorrow in the light of new thouchts or deeds, Life is a series of surprises.

According to these misleaders_of public opin- ion a voter should follow the leadership of a criminal rather than vote for a man who is not of his own race, religion and political party. If a man hate his neighbors whom he has seen, how can he be expected to love men in foreign ccuntries whom he has not seen? If we are to make progress as a civilized nation, it is time to break away from the apostles of hatred, who preach the doc- trines of Bolshevism while claiming loyalty to a Christian church. A little common sense by the voters will teach them to estimate men of this type at their proper value, and to laugh at their attempts to make good Americans hate each other be- cause they happen to haye points of difference. What Would Happen If congress should restore protection to American ships in foreign trade this would happen: the shipping board would be able to sell about 5,000,000 tons of ships to private citizens at fair prices; these ships would be operated in foreign trade by these private citizens, and their operation for years would prevent a rise in ocean freight rates, a number of ships would be taken out of our prohibitively protected coastwise trade ard run in foreign trade, the country would be using its own ships for its own foreign carrying; their earnings would stay at home and their use would strengthen the United States upon the sea, where it is weak; we should preserve for possible need in the emergency of war vast numbers of merchant ships that are as essential to the national defense as warships are. In short the nation would be protected and the welfare of the people would be safeguarded if adequate protection were but restored American ships operating in foreign trade Hurtful Propaganda propaganda assailing President Coolidge for his tude toward the French debt is appearing in the Ameri r of several Paris papers, sed on messages ci m three New York editors, this pr encouragement to hope United States, This con ganda gives the F yr cancellation of the debt to the just at the moment when Ambas- ador Herrick is having interviews with Premier Poincare for the purpose of resuming debt ne tions, Such propaganda, misleading to the French public, is a repetition of the anti debt publicity which flooded the Parisian newspapers when the question of repayment of debts to America was first sed, and tends to hamper the president and the administration in 3 gotintions 7 umably about to be taken up in Washing: ) shortly To: Penalizing the People That the taxes in the United States—municipal, county te and fec ul—are about as high in the aggregate as they federal the peak of war expenditures government, is the conclusion despite economies in reached by a sub-com mittee o ricultural, industrial and transportation repre: entatives, They set the total for last year at $7,907,000,000, nd attribute the continued burden to steadily rising local nd state taxes, State and municipal bonds issued in the coun- try in { amounted to $1 100, or more than ten times ey were in 1901, A ed hage been for refundir 3,000,000 from 1923 to and local taxes iner vortion of the new While federal tax , State taxes increased ased $147,000,000, bonds is decreased $172,000, Judge Allen's Doctrine ate Justice Florence BE, Allen of the Ohio supreme aims this to be the true doctrine: “There are no commandments for nations and the theory that the state » wrong still prevails.

On the balance it will be five instead of six. The al- lowance for dependents will undoubt- edly be fixed at $400, the present rate, while the maximum surtax is to figured at twenty per cent In raising the amount considered as “earned income” from ten thous- and to twenty thousand dollars it will be seen that the small business man will be materially relieved. The new rates on income taxes, if adopt- ed into law in their present form, will remove about one million tax payers from the rolls. Another move {s a slash of one hundred and eixty million dollars from the nation’s auto and excise taxes. If this Is done it will, however, run up the total reduction of bill to about three hundred and fifty mil- Mon dollars, which is fifty million more than Secretary Mellon a safe figure. It is generally conceded that there will be little opposition to this meas- ure in the house of representatives, although there is more than a chanes that minority thoughts, {f not reports will make their appearance on the floor of the house. Just what will be done to it in the senate Is some. thing that the most astute political prophets do not desire to forecast. Boring from Within In outlining the aims of the As- sociation of General Contractors of America to counteract the present inclination of governments “to go into business," Brigadier General Richard C, Marshall, Jr., of the as- sociation, pointed out that the Amer- ican business man in many different lines of endeavor, has come to figure out that government em- ployes, whose wages and salaries he helps to pay as a taxpayer, are be- coming more and more his competi- tors. He Stressed the point that work generally conducted under gov- ernment auspices is done under methods that result In from 25 to 100 per cent more cost than it would by contract. “It is boring from within that is more insidious than any political fight ever undertaken,” he said. The extent to which the federal government {1s ‘in business’ has more than doubled within the last five years so that now at least one person out of every eleven is a government employe. It is the purpose of the Asso- clation of General Contractors of America to bring to the attention of the people of the country the great danger which is menacing the industries and then, by legisla- tion, to e td curb the grow- ng tendency « vernment to enter into busines | nt, the same ts 7r25 cents YEARS WHY PAY WAR PRICES? The government used millions of pounds The Casper Daily T ed such a foothold in the last few years that some of the states are doing all their public work by day labor.” Powerful political machines and tremendous waste inevitably creep in where public work is carried on by officials without the check of competitive bidding which acts as a brake’on careless expenditure of public funds. The government should be out of all business, kept Private individ: uals and the private industries which pay the taxes to maintain government, should do the work fo. the government, and should not be subjected to government compe- tition in the line of business in which they are engaged. General Marshall has sounded a timely note of warning. Something’s Hap- pened Something has bottom of the oc is no one knows. thing. Apparently within a very recent period, changes of more than usual have been taking place in the ocean's floor. Among recent reports which so indicate are those made to the naval hydrographic office at Washintgon of the appearance of mysterious shoals off the coast of the Caro‘inas, where the sea bottom shelves down sharply southwestward from Cape Hatteras. The entire section of the const some distance out from the shore line was long ago well mapped by the coast and geodetic survey from Hatteras to the Florida peninsula. In recent years, however, different sea captains haye reported shoal water where official hydrographic charts show nothing but deep water ut varlous points from Diamond Shoals, off Cape Hatteras, to Frying Pan Shoals, opposite the boundary line between the two Carolinas. A survey ship is to be sent out to determine just what changes have been taking ‘place in the territory mentioned, Coupled with other re- ports of ocean-depth changes from far-spread points, these reports are an indication of some unusual pres- sure disturbances, ede! “eC SR Future Source of Oil —- ‘ happened on the n, Just what it But it is some: If the entire known supply of oil in the ground in thé United States could be extracted in ten years, it would not supply actual market de- mands in this country at the present rate of consumption, and the use of petroleum and its products increases every year.

It {s known that President Cool- idge favored a system along the lines of the Smoot reorganization bill in the last congress and that he would not be adverse to having it passed. Of cou . Coolidge be- lieves that some of these commis- sions and bureaus should be abol- ished on account of the overlapping. If the bureaus are not abolished by congress there {s but Ittle doubt that the same personnel! will be re- tained. If, however, some are abol- ished, those remaining will hare thelr same officers, It {s the ‘pres- ldent’s aim that somebody be in @ position where they can be held strictly accountable to the people of the country.

Riner tn_the Laramie county district court, given ‘September 17, 1923, was af- firmed by the Wyoming supreme court, but the amount of the judg- ment reduced $500, tn the case of Jobn B. Burns versus the Corn Ox- change National bank of Omaha.
