WHEAT AND BREAD.

Unless the advancing tendency in the price of
wheat is shortly arrested there is every Indication
that many of the Touring mills of this country will
be forced to import wheat even for the production
of -four for domestic consumption
II is calculated that the point of wheat impor-
tations on large scale would be reached when
ever American wheat goes to about $1.30 bushel
the price to millers; but with American wheat
now selling in the negihbrohood of $118 per bushe
and with a short wheat crop in this country in
night and a steadily increasing demand for -four for
home consumption, there is the prospect that Ameri-
can wheat may advance to the price at which Ameri
can millers would find it profitable to import wheat
m spite of the 25cent duty per bushel that is now
levied on the foreign product.
Russian wheat can now be delivered here, it is
authoritatvely stated, at $105 per bushel. At this
price, American millers who manufacture -four for
export can already afford to go to Russia for the
~raw material Of their industry The present tar
III permits drawback Of SO per cent of the duty
on foreign wheat that is used for the production of
-four exported and this drawback practically means
free trade in foreign wheat that is intended for flour
for foreign consumption. That is to say, the pres
ent tariff with its drawback provision, enables our
millers to furnish foreign consumers with -four ma
terisly cheaper than it does domestic consumers
This is a situation that the American people are
mot likely to brook very long. They may look with
cornplaisance on the fact that many American COM
mOdities are sold at lower price abroad than they
command at home, but unless the temper of Ameri-
can consumers is misunderstood thew will draw the
Line at cheap American-made -four for the foreigner

IN DEcENCY's NAME. q sTsf sF

Councilmer Burns, Belland slenapwebss, Nor
ton and Nordstrom are to be applauded for thei
action in voting against the ordinance for the i'm
prosement of the Smith point road. This measure
which specified that the improvement should be pale
for with license funds collected in city precinct No
1, was plainly calculated to influence the vote on The
liquor question in that precinct and for downright
knayery had ne parallel in city legislation. 1t was
an insult to the intelligence of the people, outrage
en- deceney and monstrous effort to compel the
people of the precinct to abandorl principle in or
ty should have thus been notified that it could not
expect NEEDED repair without Sacrificing It's
known objection to the sale of liquor is beyond
prehension, demonstrating plainly that almost any
means may be employed in the game of politics.
Again we beg to compliment the five gentlemen
named.
The ordinance to increase the license imposed
upon theaters should meet similar fate. This meas
are is nothing more than political scheme, calcu-
lated to bolster up the waning pull of candidate
for Office. Why should the 10cent theaters be thus
Iegsated against They are the places of entertain
mert sought by the respectable element, well asl
by hundreds of others who otherwise would spend
their time in the saloons. The, 10eent shows are
being conducted at a loss, yet here we find bill
that would add burden to them. If the ordinance
were to have been framed in plain language, it would
read something like this:
'.Section /. In view of the fsctsthat certain So
looms have not been doing as much business since
the 10cent theaters were opened ID is ordained that
the I0-cent theaters shall go out of business.

cal manager to allow a child under the age of l
year to perform in his playhouse"
We have too much confidence in the integrity Of
Messrs. Burns, Belland Leinenweber, Morton and
Nordstrom to feel at all alarmed that this outrageous
piece of legislation will be enacted Perhaps before
many months we will settle the question as to

ARBITRATION IN FRANCE

That is an agreeable announcement, that an ar
kbitratisn treaty has been made between France ant
' sfsssie say the New York Tribune 1t is not SUR
prising since il was athoritatively stated not Ions
age that psgetistieas for such treaty were under
way. Moreover, France has been making, such
treaty with Great Britain and the latter power ha
lalsos made others Sith other European countries
so that international arbitration may be said to b,
Sin the air" and 4 is only natural that this coun
cry should join in the general movement. especially
since America has long been regarded as the fore
most advocate of arbitration. 1t may be expected
that similar treaties will be made with other coun
tries, and it may with some degree of confidence
be hoped that having been negotiated they will be
ratified and put into force
1t is true that an arbitration treaty with Great
Britain was negotiated, and was rejected by our SEN
ate, some years ago The causes of its rejection We're
Iobvions, and We're not insufficient. There are some
lextrees to which, in the present state of interna-
tona affairs, nation can not well go in committing
itself to arbtrstion But the present treaty, as do
those recently made between Great Britain and var
Gus continental powers, may be supposed to avoid
any such Objectionable features. We may assume
that it leaves everycase open at first for efforts to
settle it by the ordinary processes of diplomacy,
and that it is onlyiwhen these are recognized by
both powers to have failed that arbitration is to be
sought; and that, moreover, question involving
the vital interests the independence the honor of
either party is to be deemed arbitrable, each party
being for itself the judge of the nature Of the ques
tion at issue. II
In brief, the treaty will probably prove to bel
nothing more than more direct and explicit appli
cation of the principles already subscribed to in the
yeenral treaty of The Hague In the latter conven-
Jon all the signatory powers practically promised to
submit certain cases 80 arbitration under certain
1itons. These new. treaties between individual ma.
idhs will be specific reafirmations of that under
aking between the individual nations concerned.
That will not put arbitration above independence,
Tor will it cause any nation to abrogate its own
sovereignty in favor Of some alien or international
tribunal. But it win be- with all its limitations
Qng step toward the prompt, rational and peaceful
ettlement of many matters that hitherto have been
auses perhaps of war; but at least Of irritation, sus
,icion and resentment.

Woman's Curiosity.


The curiosity of woman seems to
have been a matter for discussion
ever since the Lord made little apples
(See story of Adam and Eve in all
Bibles.) Even the Greeks and Ro-
mans wondered at it.
Once upon time Psyche, the beau
tiful daughter of the King of Nicobar.
second cousin to the King of Crowbar.
and distantly related to "Betsy-an-I-
hlled-the bar" hated by Venus for
her beauty, was exiled Cupid, the son
of Venus, visiting the Island of Robin
son Crusoe, where Psyche was fore
IDLY stopping, fell in love with her and
carried her off to fairy palace in a
vale of paradise. Here they spent
many happy hours together. chasing
the gay butterflies ard feeding the
gray squirrels butter crackers.
But for one drawback they were
perfectly happy. This obstacle was
a command from the gods that Psyche
should never look at the strawberry
mark on the back of Cupid's neck.
Now, as a matter of fact, Psyche
had never seen a strawberry mark on
a mans neck and she wondered how it
looked What were its dimensions?
Could Cupid use it for a collar button?
Was it red or brown, like the taste in
your mouth or just brindle color?
By day, by night, Psyche wondered!
To aggravate her curiosity. the girls
oflthe village learned the secret of her
life, and admonished her to take a
peek at the strawberry mark.
At last, one midnight, being COM
pletely overpowered by acute curiosity
Psyche threw one of the curtains OF
the night about her, took dark Ian
tern in her hand and entered the sane
tuary of Morpheus where Cupid, bear
ing on his neck the wonderful straw
berry mark, slumbered and slept.
With kitten-like tread, Psyche drew
near his couch and with blushing
cheeks, cautiously turned down the
collar of his slumbering robe.
But, alasi Just as she stood transfix-
ed by the sight of the wonderful straw
berry mark, she tilted her dark Ian
tern bit too much and a great drop |
of hot fat, dropping from its cup,
fell with a soaring splash into Cupid's
right ear. He arose without his Gus
tomary beauty sleep.
The gods, to punish her, for her abb
surd curiosity, set her to doing the
dishes" in the house of Aphrodite.
Here she peeked into the china clos
cts looking for skeletons and tried,
clandestinely, to discover how much
the ice bill was.
Then Venus, thoroughly exasperat-
ed. sent her on an errand to Perse-
phone for a box of beauty ointment.
Of course the poor girl could never
withstand this. What girl could?
Again her curiosity triumphedl She
opened the box-just to smell it. The
doors overcame her and she was just
about to cash in when cupid, making
I'D his mind that curiosity was a nat
1ral part of woman and not peculiar
@ Psyche alone, rushed in with pair
If bellows and resuscitated her. The
first words she asked upon recovery
we're:
why is hen?"
And thus was given to the world
