Having got rid of our supply, we returned to St. Pierre for another 10,00dcases and continued. this- routine during the season. "We bought the liquor in Scotland for $11 a case. We sold it to New York interests for $50 a case, us a gross profit of $7,000,000.(giving Not half bad, eh, for one years wofrk? Captain White, outlining the methods by which the smugglers defeat the British customs regulations, said : A vessel clears from St. Pierre for the Bahamas or some West India port close to the American coast, Striking in off the Long Island hore she loafs leisurely along and is boarded by boats from shore, which take off her cargo, unseen of course, all the while being protected from seizure on the high seas by her clearance papers. To. satisfy the French or British authorities that her voyage i$ legitimate, she really goes to the port for which she was cleared, loads another cargo there, clears for St. Piepre and repeats the performance conning up the coast. The game works both ways, both voyages being prpfitable for all concerned. , - The country Independent of the1 central government at Peking. ie overrun arid actually in the, power of a great number of Separcerate anid independent armies, each of which owes allegiance to each tof tain wart lords.

DONT HOLLER TOO LOUD 7'l'While everybody is cussing the sugar industry for the recent increase in price, it might be well to look at the brighter j side of the situation. j , ,Ten cents a pound under present conditions is not as exorbi- taut a price for sugar as. a lot of politicians would have us 'believe. it could be sold for less and still sufficient so that any part (of the price in order to make world) that had sugar cared to j a sale. ' i price means that American beet sugar factories gut will again be able to get on their feet and pay a good price to the farmers raising sugar beets. '' Theresenf situation has been the salvation of the factories and the beet growers who have been on a starvation basis for the past two or three years. In fact, many have gone out of the business entirely. It is of much greater advantage to the United States to have its sugar industry saVed from destruction by the present price of sugar than it Would be to have had the price remain at a point where the! cheaper produced foreign product could have put our factories and farmers out of existence. So dont holler too loud about the price of sugar. If it ras selling for 3 or 4 cents a pound, the chances are that hundreds of thousands of workmen whp now have a good job would be walking the streets with nothihg to do.

Yes, indeed. Russia, Japan, Greece, Tur. n key, France, Italy, Great Britain and Germany are just crazy to prevent war. The only thing1 that is holding them back is the United States. These countries love one another They wouldnt injure one another for the world. They devotedly. would like to lie down together like the lion and. the lamb. Only America prevents We wont let em. Dr. Crane says so. All the other League of Nations propagandists say so It must be so just as so as that three and five make nineteen, the water in Niagara Falls runs upward and the Eskimos hunt the grizzly bear in their b. v. d.s. 11 SOUND NATIONALISM HOPE OF WORLD r Nothing in the world "cap alter facts. Patriotism stands ini national matters as love of family does in private life. ,ism corresponds to the love a( man bears for his wife and children. Internationalism corresponds to the feeling he has for his neighbors generally. The sound nationalist is the only type of really helpful internationalist,1 precisely as in private relations it is the man who is most devoted to his own wife and children who is kpt, in the long run, to be the most satisfactory, neighbor.

OSCAR BOWEN, Manager VAST AREAS OPENED TO SETTLEMENT BY VETERANS OF WAR 'WASHINGTON, May 23. The department of the interior has thrown open for homesteading by men of the World war approximately 220,569 acres of public land In the western part of Oregon. The; land is classified as agricultural in character and for the most part is covered with a growth of timber. It) is well watered and the climate is good. men will be given nihety-on- e in which to file upon the land, days after which it will be thrown open to the general public. Entries are restricted to 160 acres. With this latest area of public land made available for homestead men, more than rights by 899,000 acres have been thrown open for veterans of the World war since the first of the year. This lincludes public lands in Emery and Grand counties, Utah; Owyhee county, Idaho; Beaver Head county, Montana; Eureka and Elco counties, (Nevada; Rio Arriba county. New Mexico, and Mesa county, Colorado. It Is generally believed that thousands! of acres of other public land will be added before the year Is over. men will In all cases the have preference In the homestead rights. Furthermore, they can deduct from the legal period of three years necessary to prove homestead title, the time they served (with the colors. In other words, an man who served two years can prove his title to homestead rights by living on them 12 months. ex-servi- ce ' e i This is a great country, says a paragrapher, because it is on the European plan.
