Roosevelt Congratulated.

President Roosevelt is receiving the
congratulations of the world upon the
success of his peace lntercesslon. The
peace agreement was reached just
eighty. eight days from the time he
took the first step in his plans, when
he summoned Count CassIni, then the
Russian ambassador, to the White
house and talked with him on the sub

not the president first move for
peace, but the first step in the series
of events which finally led tn peace.

Peace is assured in the East Every

of Portsmouth is agreed to. Only the
verbiage Of the document remains
to be worked out. The ENJOYS of the
adversaries have advised their govern

Russia persisted: Japan yielded.
Triumphant, victorious, unbeaten on
land or sea, the Japanese yesterday
turned to their defeated foe and yield

Russians would not accept, and
which they were ready to make the
price of return to war. More than

CORN AND IT'S USES.

The corn crops of this country
have much more Importance attach
ed 70 them than many take the time
to DE impressed with. The crops
of his nature form the basis OF
many useful and other industries to-
say nothing of its assistance to the
prolongation of life, as shown by the
Washington Post in the words given
below:
saThe corn crop of the United
States for this fruitful year is ex-
pected to aggregate about 2,5OO,--
100000 bushels, the cash value Of
which is estimated at $1,OOO,OOO,-
600. Absolute accuracy either IN
postharvest summing up of this OF
any other great crop is obviously i'm
possible; but the official figures ma!
be accepted as a close enough APP
proach to facts for all practicable
purposes. They are, in all Proba-
bility much nearer to absolute truth
than most of the statistics on which
the government, operating through
the Census Bureau and Labor Bu-
reau, expends a good deal of money
and a vast amount of labor. Some
of the problems attacked by official
statisticans are simply impossible OF
solution by any means that could be
devised; others are not soluble by
any available means of means that
could be provided without enormous
cost. But the difficulty attending
the collection of accurate figures a
to the corn crop is not greater than
that of comprehending and appre'
ciating all the uses to which this
king of cereals is applied.
FENIany and varied as are the
forms in which it is directly con
sumed as food by mankind, such use
of it accounts for but small frac-
ton of its total use in creating the
food supply. The corn that goes
into the making of beef, pork and
mutton, and the numberless by
products of slaughtered cattle, hogs
and sheep, would probably foot up
at almost half of the annual produc-
ton. Next to that, we suspect
stands the utilization of corn for
animal power in the shape of horses
mules and oxen. Then comes the
distillery. with its demand for mil.
lions of bushels, probably more
bushels than, according to socia
phi osopher in Southern Illinois, are
wa ted for br ld'; and last, but per.
hap not least, is the corn that il
converted into ,ilk, and thence into
but y and cheese. People in all
sta rs in life, all sorts and condi.
tor of men, from tiny babyhoo'
to the closing scene, are using corr
every day. Millions use its pro
duct, without thinking of or caring
for t1cir source. OF all the cereals
and OF all food crops, corn is the
most useful to this nation. Great
as is the value of wheat, and hard
as it might be to dispense with it
its loss would be a far less deplor
able calamity than the absence OF

GENTLY and where. as alleged and re
ported others have been killed and 9TH
ers have been treated inhumanely. The
natural inference is that the grand Jury
did not inquire into these cases, and if
they did there was no proof to sustain
indictments. or possibly these inquiries
may be deferred to some later date.
At best this is very disagreeable
subject. but it is equally serious. 1t was
expected that the police jury committee
would have been active i'll this matter,
but their procrastil1ation has been re-
markable Why hesitate to give this
investigation the fullest publicity? In
