One is a federal aid proposition, where the county participates to only a certain extent, while the other is one in which the total expense is borne by the people of Utah county, and one which will be entirely in the hands of the county officials. The somewhat arbitrary action on the part of the commissioners, wherein they seem to have ignored a request of approximately five hundred of the leading citizens of, the county, is a matter of general comment, and is being sharply criticised from many It savors much of the sources.

Treason to a state, says the New York Evening Post, is hard to conceive of at best, and infinitely hard In the case of a state with the recent history of West Virginia. It has been a state which had been derelict in exercising its duty to enforce order. It has left the maintenance of order to armed detectives in the employ of the mining companies, or to deputy sheriffs, who too often have been in the pay of the operators. With so long a record of violence on both sides it is rather late in the day for West Virginia to awake to its injured dignity and invoke the charge of treason.

Manufacturing and mechanical industry claim the largest number of women, the total being 351,104, while an army of 86,079 are engaged in trade. Transportation, too, including the telegraph and telephone, makes considerable appeal to women, for we find that in the decade the number of women employees increased from 14,603 to 33,422. ARE YOU CLEVER? Bloodhounds are transported across Texas by airplarue, to trail criminals wanted at Mexia, an oil boo mtown. This is news, because it never happened before. Later on, when airplanes are as common as autos, shipping bloodhounds by flying express may be part of the days business. Then no one will want to read about it.

DOESNT REPRESENT LABOR The arrest of 150 alleged labor leaders in Chicago will probably be seized ,upon by those strongly oppos-Jued to union labor as ground for con- demning labor organizations. Such a position(, however, is entirely unfair. If the tmen arrested in Chicago have been guilty of the crimes charged against them, they ought to be prosecuted and punished, and no persons ought to be more eager to see this than the members of labor organizations for they do not want to have the impression go out that their organizations are not lawabiding.

The prevalence of rains and storms over nearly the entire United States has naturally brought out a good deal of speculation concerning the causes of these climatic disturbances. That is always the case, but there is no reason to believe that anybody comes nearer knowing the answer now than at any time in the past, now when there is so much talk and experimenting with radio electricity it is not surprising to hear that a man who calls himself a radio expert says the recent heavy rains resulting in floods, slushy basements and discouraged farmers, were caused by agitated air. The agitation was caused by radio broadcasting. He advises radio enthusiasts to take a vacation and permit the atmosphere to return to normal. An expert may argue that with so many messages propelled by powerful electric impulses it would be but natural for the air strata to buckle and twist, changing temperature and forming clouds from which moisture would fall. This would mean that an increase in broadcasting would cause more rain. Another might hold that radio messages, regardless of their wave lengths, would have no effect on the air and that any suggestion of a relationship between radio and rain is mere bosh. well-know- wqrldly goods.
