1'uderal Fuel administrator
Garfield is waging a hard cam
tmign to educate the public to
the necessity of saving fuel,
ofipeclaliy coal. He says:
"Coal is the foundation stone of
industry, without it the pro
miction or equipment tor war
must halt. Transportation fac
ilities must stand still. One
man's carelessness and wasteful
use may mean an idle factory
or a cold house for his neigh
nor.' J his is good advice and
the public should heed it. Hut
t ho campaign of fuel saving
should be carried on in Wash
ingtnn, I). C, as well, where
misguided politicians have
been passing theoristic legisla
tion tor the past ten years,
Untold millions of horsepower
are now tied up in federal re
serves under the false name of
"conservation,' for the henellt
of future generations. Just as
if you could store water power.
If it is not used now it wastes
to the sea and a new supply is
being wasted every second.
True conservation is using what
we have to the best advantage.
rreventing the use of our water
powers that would furnish light,
heat, power,' fertilizer, mun
tious of war and innumerable
other things, is the rankest
kind of waste. The time is
hum to change these laws which
tie up our natural resources.
rracueaiiy every railroad in
the west could be operated
by electricity jf laws won
passed pormiltitur development
Instead wo burn up our coal and
oil and throw tilvny our water

use does not hurt.

Fair Piny! Kverybody knows
that the railroads of this
country are Buttering for lack
of capital to carry out much
needed plans for new equip

realize that, if the railroads
could get the money they would

would mean nr. enormous nddi-
tion to our industrial activities.
The subject is of personal in
turwt to every shopkeeper and
the workmen in every factory.
Hut tho credit of the railroads
has fallen away so great y dur
ing thu past few years that it is
dillicult for them to borrow
money, except at ruinous rates.

Wins Another Game
James John High School Wed
nesday defeated Hill Military
Academy, 12-0, after having
been held scoreless by tho M i
tary boys throughout the first
halt. The low score was a snr
nrise to fans throughout the
league, as James John had de
feated Henson 75 to 0 and Com
merce to u, both losers hu
ng in the saiiiu class with Hill.
Tho Held was very wet, which
slowed up the play a bit. James
John cannot attribute its nar
row margin of victory to a slip
pery ball interfering with its
forward pass system, ns all
fumbling in passing was due
solely to errors in judgment.

that the government should
loan its credit at a low rate to
tho railroads. Mr. I' rank II.
rayant, an authority on such
matters, in a lottor to the Now
York Tribune, asks why, if the
govornment is stimulating
wheat raising, it cannot stimu
late railroad transportation. He
says tho govornment has guar
anteed the farmer a minimum
price of two dollars a bushel for
wheat, compared with one dol
lar whoat beforo the war, and
an average price during the
twenty yoars proceeding the
war of only eighty-four cents a
bushol. While tho govornment
is thus increasing the price
nuovo me twenty year average
by 260 per cent, present freight
rates are still below tho twenty
year averngo. Wheat is being
carried now at a less charge
than wnon it was selling at
sevonty-ivo cents a bushol.
While tho govornment has made
an advance of 260 per cent in
tho price of wheat, it has
granted only a 3 1-2 per coin ad
vance in froight rates. "And
what is this," Mr. Fayant
asKs, "compared with an
fncronso of 100, 200 and 300 perl
of tho lineup luesday, Meyer
substituting tor him. The lat
ter also proved very adept at
passing, but did not iret the
support that bchroeder rece ves.

Meyer, and at last, after the

found the combination to score
on Hill.
