somewhat uniform flow in the furrows,
but constant attention is required in

will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, Kim

purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his cows yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-
pensable. Regardless of how many
other papers the farmer may take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only

THE SALOON QUESTION AND
THE NEGRO.

The colored people have always
been considered to be enamored
with saloons. In the South, where
the Negro vote is a factor, when
ever this question comes to an
issue, the anti-saloon people claim
that the colored vote is largely pro
saloon. But the facts in the case
are not given all the time. This
question will come to an issue
again in several Illinois cities both
this fall and next spring and the
colored vote will be arrayed on
both sides. In Springfield, we are
to have an important election Dec.
5, and the colored vote will be con-
spicuously in favor of the ordin-
ance.
There are many of them no
doubt who will vote against it, but
when the issues are brought
squarely before them and thor
oughly explained, we may better
be able to judge which way the
vote will swing.

THE STATE SUFFRAGETTE
CONVENTION.

The women met in Decatur this
week in convention, "quarreling"
because they have not the ballot
and averring that they can beat
the men in governing the state.
No one but they believe it. Few
of them can govern their children
or themselves. If women can do
so much with the political reins
of government in their hands, his
tory fails to record it.
All the trouble, both political
and social, is traceable to their
perfidity. 1t was ever thus from
the start in Eden. The Bible de-
clares that men are to rule and
govern the nations, etc. If wo-
men will go back to the kitchen
and the parlor and govern there,
all will be well

Probing for Evil.

wiokedness that hes 70 be unearthed
with a spade ordinarily ought to be kept
under the clod that the spade raises.
That is what President Taft thinks
OF r. r. Cranes action in employing
detectives to dig under the surface
of student life at large colleges and
universities for misconduct, which
Mr.. Crane may use as evidence to
support his widely-published Views of
the dissipation OF college-bred men
and the futility and failure of the
college course. II is something of
an epigram, pungent enough, brief
as IL is, to snuff out the force of
most Of the Crane fulminations.
But the truth of 1t will do for gen
ersl application. Many good men,
in their zeal for righteousness and
their contempt for wrong, often in
jure the cause of good and offend
the moral sensibility of tender youth,
by trying to air and expose every
thing they find in the realm OF evil
and wickedness on the false assump-
ton that that is the way to cure it.
Many a form of wickedness can be
routed or destroyed by publicity, but
there is limit beyond which, for the
good of the larger number for the
the safety Of the youth of the coun-
try, even this method of correction
should not go. That is not saying,
though, that those who know of the
wickedness should turn from it and
let it thrive unoppressed There
are ways to deal with it without pa
rading It to the world. If vice did
not possess any attraction, boys and
men would not go into It, For fear
Of magnifying the attractive side of
It, sometimes care should be taken
as to how is was displayed.
The president, however, used this
expression first to show his own
skepticism about the frightful
charges Mr. Crane made against col
lege students, of whom the president
was one for long time. He is still
in rather intimate official and prl-
vate touch with Yale and other such
institutions. He speaks, therefore,
as one having first-hand knowledge
when he assumes to say that the
Crane picture, while not all wrong,
badly overdraws the facts. This, we
believe, is the popular view. 1t GER
tainly is strengthened by this en-
dorsement by the head of the nation.

Our Growth in Figures.

According to figures recently is
sued by the Department of Com
merce and Labor's bureau Of statis-
tics, the United States has gained in
population since the 1910 census,
1,9SS,0OO in round numbers, making
the continental population, that is,
exclusive of the insular possessions,
93,750,000 at present. If these new
figures are correct-and they are re-
garded as official-the United States
is more than maintaining its ratio
of increase for the last ten years
prior to 1910. From 1900 to 1910
1t made an annual gain of about
1,597,SO0. So that in spite of the
stiffening up of our immigration
laws and the little recession of in
ternational prosperity for the time
being, our growth has gone on upon
larger percentage, which is quite
encouraging.
The same array of figures put out by
this bureau shows another very inter
esting fact. namely, that as We in
crease in population and national
wealth, resources and revenues, our
per capita public debt and our per
capita interest charges steadily fall,
For instance, in 1865, Immediately
on the close of the civil war, our per
capita public debt was $76.9S and
our per capita interest charges
(1S66), $412, whereas in 1911 our
debt per capita is $10.S3 and our in
crest charges per capita, only %
cents. 1t pays to be at peace, both
at home and abroad. OF course, we
know this, but these figures help to
remind us of it and impress the fact
on our minds.
In the forty-five years that we
have wiped out these heavy burdens
of debt and interest, our nation has
has solved problems affecting its
destiny quite as intricate as the one
whose final solution had to be re-
| lSIIeu 10 Ihe dolITdnSnL Oh al MS III
1861. We have really, in that time
completed our national structure
having the united powers and patri-
otism of all the nation for that work
Peace, indeed, is the first and great
est asset any nation, especially this
one, can have and we hope to have
it interruptedly from now on. If we
shall, with what prodigious results
we have achieved without thus fan
having more than begun to develop
our resources, the extent of our pos
sibilities may be admitted as lying
far beyond the limit of any mans
power of prediction.
