Bjorn Jonsson, one of the leading
public men of Iceland, was born in
Djupadal, in the western district IF
Iceland, October s, 1916. He entered
college at Reykjavik in 1852 and
graduated with high honors in 1869.
He next went to the University Of
Copenhagen and studied law there
for some years, but did not take his
degree as he was more attracted by
Journalism. In 1874 he started his
paper Isafold, which became the
largest and most influential paper in
Iceland. In 1879 Josson was elected
to the legislature and soon became a
recognized leader Of that body. He
was particularly active in promiting
temperance legislation, being the
author of stringent bill to prohibit
the importation and sale of intoxi-
cants into his country A year ago
he was appointed minister to Den
mark. which Is regarded as one Of
the most important positions within
the gift of his country. owing to the
vexed questions of the political status

questions that for years have occu-

the grass, too, if we would only real
ize it. But when it comes to fences
we are tremendously handicapped.
1t is safe to say that there are
thousands of farmers in every South
ern State who would have more and
much better cattle and horses, hogs
and sheep, if they had good pastures
for them to run in. Yet it is easy
to find all over the cotton belt fields
grown up to Bermuda-one of the
finest pasture grasses in the void
in which the owners plant corn or
cotton year after year and spend all
summer fighting the grass only to
have poor and very expensive crop
at the seasons end. We heard not
long since a farmer talking of how
he was going to kill out the Bermu-
da on a poor hillside preparatory to
getting it ready to SOW in grass. All
that he needs to do, and all that
thousands of other farmers need to
do is to put good fence around that
field and some stock on it and give it
a little attention for few years,
keeping down briars and bushes and
giving it an occasional narrowing,
and he would have a pasture which
would pay him ten times as much as
he is now getting from these acres.
A good permanent pasture should
be one of the established institutions
on every farm and in the despised
and neglected Bermuda we have
grass of which Prof. Spillmen, of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture,
says that mo other grass bears pas
turing better or yields more heritage
in the form of pasture. With our
winter-groWing grasses and legumes
it would be easy for us to supple
ment it so as to have pastures prac-
tically the whole year round.
Yet we go on fighting it to grow
sorry crops of low-priced cotton and
tobacco to pay for the butter and
beef and lard and bacon this same
grass would make for us if we would
let it!

neglected opportunities. = Raleigh

THE INDEPENDENTS AND THE
OIL DUTY.

The Standard Oil Company is
shown by the evidence in the ST.
Louis case to be making net earn
ings of from 81 per cent. to "a per
cent. per year on it's investment
The indeendent operators, who are
so insistent on protection upon oil
and its products would seem to be
able to exist, not by reason of the
tariff, but by, sufferance of the
Standard
Competition of the sort that now
exists is not regarded as bad thing
by the great octopus, which would
seem to be able to snuff it out like a
candle at any time, by reductions
which would extinguish the indie
pendents long before reaching to the
bottom of the Standard S margin of
profit.
Any industry that can compete
with the Standard, can compete with
the world; and in any case, the re-
quest made in the name of the indie
pendents that the Standard be given
protection on nine-tenths of the
product, in order that the producers
of the other tenth may have what
they regard as a stronger hold on
their precarious and merely permits
sive existence is one that this nation
of great consumers of kerosene and
gasoline may feel warranted in re-
fusing. The independents" are too

THE CRIME OF MAKING BREAD
DEAR.

Such a social outrage as is now
being committed in the Chicago
wheat pit would be impossible in
either Germany or France.
In both those countries severe
prison penalties are prescribed for
the punishment of those who deal in
grain futures" or who attempt to
establish a corner" in foodstuffs.
The French act bearing on this
matter is dated March, 1885, and is
to be found the enalty in the case of
foodstuffs.
What is called in the wheat pit
corner" was described in common
law language by such words as fore
Sailing" and "regrating." And these
words had bad sound-like pick
pocket and porch-climber.
The German act went into effect
in May, 1908. 1t provides heavy
fines and prison sentences for those
who deal in grain futures or who by
any device seek to influence the price
of food products.
According to the common law OF
England, nobody had right to buy
up provisions for the purpose of mar
rowing the market or enhancing the
price.
Doubtless it would still be regard
ed as a crime in all English-speaking
lands to Corner foodstuffs, if it
were not for certain remarkable
notion that took possession of the
field of economics in the middle Of
the last century.
Making money by cornering the
wheat market ceased to be regarded
as a crime in England simply be-
cause Mill and Bright and Golden
had persuaded everybody that, un
der the common law of nature, no.
body could corner the wheat market.
There is no doubt now that it is
possible to corner the wheat market
possible for an irresponsible spec
ulator to make money by raising the
price of bread.
The doubt has vanished, because
we have seen the thing done.
And the spectacle is grotesque and
monstrous.

The White Slave Traffic,

The United States supreme court
decided the other day that the clause
of the immigration law making it a
federal offense to harbor alien girls
brought to this country for immoral
purposes is unconstitutional The
federal government may exert itself
to prevent the importation and to
punish the aet, but after the alien
is once in the country and within the
jurisdiction of the state, the state
itself must determine what acts with
reference to the imported one are
criminal.
lt was under this clause of the
law. now decided unconstitutional
that the federal authorities were
prosecuting crusade against the
white slave traffic. 1t is thought that
this decision may temporarily cripple
the efforts made to stop the traffic
in imported girls, but it should slim
ulate the states to greater efforts to
overcome an evil which does not be-
long to the federal government tC
deal with. There are now pending
bfore the Illinois general assembly
measures carefully designed to en-
able the state to work effectively for
the suppression of this vile traffic
and the same measures or similar
ones, should be introduced in every
state legislature and no effort should
be spared to prevent the wretchet
business. That such an infamy as
TINS can be kept up in a civilized
land, shows that there has been or
the part of those in authority and OF
those who have the power to prevent
it an insensibility and Indifference tc
the tate of hundreds of thousands OF
poor victims of greed and lust thai
do not indicate morality or human.

ed under the mistaken claim that it
brings in revenue, essential to main
tanning the administration. The total
expenditures of the last Cleveland ad-

appropriations for the last Roosevelt
term were 1928, 100000. That is
more than twice as much as under
Cleveland. The expenses of no nation
on earth ever swelled at such a ratio
