America and Potatoes,

Man boasteth himself of his
greatness. and the next day he is
cut off-he feeleth good when he
goes to bed and wakes to find he
has the big head. Therefore, we
may not be surprised when told
that we are buying potatoes frem
Europe, and yet the news is shook
ing enough. The Southwark has
brought 10000 bushels from Ant
werp. the Vaderland brought Co.,
600 bushels and the Laurentian
from Glasgow 10000. Why
should Belgium, Scotland and Ire
land send US our potatoes and why
should we buy from foreigners
with the cost for long hauls added
Does it profit us to sell in new
markets if we buy back staples we
should grow ourselves? The prof
its on many steel bridges and loco
motives go up in potatoes, yet land
is higher over there and we have
every advantage of those who thus
push ne from our own markets.

Virginia's new constitution will
contain a requirement that all mu-
nicipal franchises, save only those
for trunk line railroads, shall be
sold to the highest bidder. Fran
chises are limited to thirty years,
and thereafter the plant and prop
erty of the grantee is to become
the property of the city, "if so pro-
vided in the lease or grant" This
tardy recognition of the value of
local public franchises will scarce
ly prevent syndicate exploitation
under modern political methods;
but it at least points the way to a
sensible and permanent public
policy in this regard, and will curb
the audacious methods of franchise
grabbers.

The "ship of the desert" SO long
the only means of traversing the
great desert of Sahara, is to give
way to the unpoetic automobile.
The French government is expert
menting with gasoline motor car
riages, for carrying mails and sup
plies between GASES. Camels can
go several days without water, but
should have it every day. About
100 miles is the cancels range of
action from a supply base, but the
new automobiles that are being
tried have touring radius of 500
miles without new supplies. AS
the desert makes good automobile
travelling the innovation should
prove success. A speed of twen-
ty miles an hour can be maintained.
