Heroes are the product of this vulgar greatness. And Na poleon is the perfect hero. His brain never traveled more quick jy than his hand, that beautiful little hand that ground the world. He never for a single moment cared for anything he could not realize.” The world possesses the collection of Napoleon's writings and the history of his accomplishments. In this mass of ideas there is not a hint of philosophical curiosity, of any interest in the unknowable, of any preoccupation with the mystery of destiny. His great dream of life was earth bound. Such is the condition of most men of genius. They live entirely for the moment, and their genius is concentrated on one point. They do not develop, one condition merely succeeds another in a series of deeds. The People in Politics Some experts who have observed the trend of municipal ownership in this country during the last decade have arrive at the conclusion that the greatest corrupting and demoral- izing influence in modern municipal government is that of the political bureaus that conduct businesses which have nothing to do with gpvernment. There are men patriotic enoug) to sac- rifice their personal interests to perform government func- ui ts that are necessary and indispensable, but not to perform service that is not an essential function of government and that should be dispensed with. Standards of Living Population growth in this country is now averaging be tween one and two per cent a year, while growth of busi- ness activities is at the rate of from three to four per cent. This is taken to mean that standards of living are constantly improving, owing, at least in part, to increased use of machin ery and more ¢ nt ¢ unization of business Bringing Capital and Labor T ogether With a capitalization of $2,500,000, the American Tra 8806 ente Dispatchers’ , ed the banking field in Chi cago, following the successful lead of the Brotherhood of L« comotive Engineers in several p .

Predicting Increase An increase in freight traffic for the first half of 192¢ is predicted by presidents of many of the most important rail roads, who add that, if crops are g the increase will co: tinue throughout the coming year. Many improvements are c templated by the railroads thirty-six of which already have appropriated 380,000,000 for enditures.

This country {s an asset to the state, and will be a large one in the near fu- ture, Mr. Albright says that-there will be no roads but into this country. ‘There will be. because {t will be as much a drAwing card for the park as the Tetons. There is not any country in the Rocky Mountains that is any more beautiful. It {s a case on the part of the park service of grabbing it be- fore the people of the state find out what they are getting. If it were allowed to be known, you would find that there are plans for a road into that country now. There are plans for summer homes along the shores of the lakes at the foot of the Tetons. These, summer homes are taxable property and then there is the money the owners leave in the country each season. The Forest Service has plans to regulate them as to their locations so as not to mar the scenery. There {s not any timber to speak of being cut along the Tetons now. because the Forest Service does not low {t The whole country in the proposed park extension {s patroled by rang- ers and game wardens to protet the forests from fire the same as in the park. There {s no transportation to ship tlmber out of the country. The rivers can not be adapted for the purpose and a railroad would cost more than all the timber {n the country {s worth. ‘Timber would have to be floated clear to Lorenzo, Idaho, for shipping, on the Snake river, Mr. Albright says that the park service {s the only organization that can guarantee the Tetons from com- mercial exploitation. He also says the function of the Forest Service !s to develop the resources of the na- tional forests commercially tn such a way as to use the interest, so to speak, while conserving the princt!- pal of its properts Why can't the Forest Service ksep the timber and the lakes {ntact so as to use them as the principal and let summer homes and dude ranches develop as the interest.

The Forest Service has plans for a camp ground which takes in the most of the east shore of Jennier lake and then lots for small bust- nesses along one side of it. This will give the ttle man a chance for ~| a little business of his own, and not | 1g to| |allow the park service a chance tc ve rich easterners ms to pay political debts. That keep the money in the sta nd make more taxable property It would be better for the Tetons t« go in the park than to allow thr Inkes to be made into reservoirs The reclamation bureau reported that the lakes were not fit for reser- voirs. If they were going to be made into reservoirs the park serv- fee would come to our ald, because it would be to their interests to keep the mas they are. ‘The Forest Service can become progressive enough to change their policy to fit this case, because, as Mr. Albright says, their function is to conserve the principal and use the interest. The Tetons, lakes and timbers are the principal, and dude ranches, summer homes and commercial lots along the camp grounds are the in- terest. The national government has taken tnough of our resources to give to easternera in that way, taking.money out of the state, and depriving the state and counties of taxable property. Mr, Albright said in an interview with the Denver Post that the only ones that were against park exten- sion was a few who wanted tq get a monopoly on the country. The sen- ate lands committee reported the Yellowstone par.. was monopolized by the transportation company, and by the hotel company, if this country is kept out of the park it will give the man of small means a chance to have a business of his own. It will tend to keep the monopolies out, Under the plan of the Forest Serv- ice, one man will have a lease on a lake so he can run boats, another man will have a-iease for a store, and another a lease for a garage, etc. 1 understand the same pl followed on the other lakes. tt essions in at amount 0 a favored n will be Prac- the to outside of the state. Let this coun- try be different so that the people will not have to pay to enter, and will not be subject to regulations which are devised to force them to trade with the park people and pay their prices. I have heard some people say that this country should be put into the park so that {t can not be commer- clallzed, They go into the park and se6 the largo hotels and the like, and think because Uncle Sam {s supposed to be run is alright. They y_are ‘charg. large conces- | ed higher prices for things In the Jackson Hole country than they have been paying outside. If they would stop and think they would find that they have pald_as much or more jn the park, and the freight rates to the park are less. There are a few exceptions and If they are looked up one would find that they are elghty or ninety miles from the railroad. If the park extension goes through it means that a favored few in the east will get control of another strip of our state. If park extension does not go through it means that Wy- oming citizens will keep what by right belong to them. DONALD EB. WILLIAMS.
