Make All Our own Sugar.
The special house committee which is
investigating the methods of the al
legged sugar trust returned from New
York and had hearing yesterday at
which Secretary Palmer of the United
States Beet Sugar Company gave some
interesting testimony.
Mr.. Palmer was led up to the ques-
ton of what effect the tariff had on
the operations of the so-called trust and
replied that. within fifteen years this
country could produce all the sugar it
needs if the tariff remains undis-
turbed.

meut Of Married Workers.
(By C. r. BARNsl

F.
The pitiful story was told recently
In q northern daily paper of an in
dustrious and capable farm laborer
who had answered several advertise
ments Of farmers in need of just such
experienced services as he was able
to render; but whose application was
rejected, in each instance. because he
had wife and two small children.
The farmers wanted neither women
nor children about their farms. So
this competent farm worker was
obliged to accept employment in a
city stable.
1t Is to be feared that this Is by no
means an isolated instance. Human
kindness has been so far eliminated.
in many cases, from the relationship
between the farmer and his hired
help. and that relationship has been
put so exclusively on hard business
basis. that the complaint is common
that "the farmer cares more for the
comfort and happiness Of his cattle
and hogs than he does for the wen
being Of his men,
Under healthier conditions in rural
life. the married workman would re-
ceive the same preference that he
generally does from employers IN

suits; as being more reliable and less

and social obligation. resting at least
as strongly on the farmer as on any
one else, to encourage, family life
among workers, and thus to promote
stability In rural populations and to
discourage the nomadism among Ia
borers which is the bane of our agri-
cultural enterprises.
It Is altogether probable that the
actual decline in population, shown
by the last census to have taken
place In extensive agricultural areas,
Is due to the encouragement of mar
riage among farm workers, and the
refusal Of employment to men with
families.
That way lies the decline Of states
and the ruin of democracy. II we
want growth in population, and the
perfect working out Of the Demo-
cratic ideas underlying American In
situations, we must reverse our meth.

man with family, and be willing to
share with him some portion Of the
opportunities of the farm.

Too late, she remembered that she

choked in her throat Already foot
steps we're hurrying down the hall; a
line of light frightened underneath
the door; voices, excitedly keyed,
banded question and comment, an I'M
mistakable Irish brogue minging with
a clear enunciation which she had but
too great reason to remember. The
pair had passed into the next room.
She could hear O'Hagan announcing:
mo wan here, sor."
Then it's the dining room, or the
trunk closet. Come along!"
One last, frantic attempt! But the
window catch, rusted with long dis
use, stuck. Painting, sick with fear,
the girl leaped away and crushed her
self into corner, crouching on the
floor behind heavy box, her dark
cloak drawn up to shield her head.
And the door opened.
A flood of radiance from the re-
lighted student lamp fell athwart the
floor. The girl lay close and still, hold
ing her breath.
Ten seconds, perhaps, licked on into
eternity; seconds that were in them
selves eternities. Then: mo one

The door was closed, and through
its panels more family came: Faith,
and the numbering divvle must We

The girl tried to rise, to make again
for the window; but it was as though
her limbs had turned to water; there
was no strength in her; and the black
ness swan visibly before her eyes, ra-
dating away in whirling, streaky cir
cles.
Even such resolution and strong will
as was hers could not prevail against
that numbing, deathly exhaustion. Her
eyes closed and her head fell back

There was bright spot of color on
either cheek and a hot light of anger
in her eyes as she set about her task.
1t would never be less hideous, never
less immediate.
The desk drawers yielded easily to
the eager keys. One by one she had
them open and their contents explored
vain repetition of yesterday after
Moons fruitless task. But she must
be sure, she must leave no stone un-
turned. Maitland Manor was closed
to her for ever, because of last night.
But here she was safe for few short
hours, and free to make assurance
doubly sure.
There remained the dispatch box,
the black japanned tin box which had
proved obdurate yesterday. She had
come prepared to break it's lock this
time, if need be; Maitland's careless
ness spared her the necessity.
She lifted it out of lower drawer,
and put it in her lap. The smallest

Crash!Athe front door downstairs
had been slammed.
She was on her feet in breath,
faint with fear. Yet not SO overcome
that she forgot her errand, her sue
cess. AS she stood up she dropped
the dispatch box back into the drawer,
without sound, and. opening her
handbag, stuffed something into it.
No time to do more; dull rumble
of masculine voices was distinctly,
frightfully aud BILE in the stiffness of
the house; vices of men cOnversing

laughed. and the laugh seemed to
penetrate her bosom like knife. Then
both strobe across the thing and began
to ascend, as was clearly told her by
footsteps sounding deadened on the
padded carpet.
Panic-stricken, she turned to the
kstudent lamp and with q quick twirl
and upward jerk of the chimneyca
extinguished the flame. A reek OF
smoke Immediately began to foul the
close, hot air; and she knew that II
