MONEY IN POLITICS.
IS cents.

Under the new campaign publicity
law, passed by congress at it's special
session and approved by President
Taft, candidates for congress will not
be permitted to legally sow their coin
to the four political winds as has been
done in the past. Candidates for the
senate ara restricted to the expendi-
ture of $4,000, and representatives
to $4,000 OF course some of the
shrewd ones may find means to make
contributions outside the regular
channels, but if caught at it they will
suffer tie humiliation Of prosecution
and the loss of office. The new law
will give men of moderate means
chaLce at the high official places.

DR.. WILEY. ECONOMIST.

If an expert who had made good
record were to walk into the office of
corporation whose management had
been unsatisfactory, inefficient and too
costly, and were to offer to operate it
successfully at one-hundredth of the
cost at which it was being carried on,
what would the corporation be
tempted to do? The impressive fea-
ture of the closing part of DR.. Harvey
w. Wiley's testimony before the con.
gressional committee which is making
the pure food and drug investigation
was his declaration that "if given one
law officer and a stenographer, he
promised to enforce the pure food
laws as efficiently. and at one-hun.
dredth the cost now being incurred
by Solicitor McCabe." In the light of
the revelations of the last two weeks
most people will be inclined to believe
that DR.. Wiley can do it.

A FRENCH ROUGH RIDER.

The new minister of war in France,
M. Messimy, is growing unpopular with
the French officers. Taking an illus
trious American example, he has is'
sued an order that the examination
for promotion to generalship shall in
clude severe physical tests, and
another by which corps commanders
are to report officers who are unfit to
take the field. Any one who has seen
an army review in Paris, say July IA,
and observed the fat generals jolting
like jelly in their saddles, will sympa'
thize with NJ. Messimy's efforts.

LIQUID PORES.
An Entertaining Experiment With Al.
IN cohol and Water. -

Al Entertaining Experiment With Al.
eohoi and Water.
It Is not easy to imagine liquids as
having pores. though this seems to be
the case as shown by certain familiar
experiments When certain amount
Of powdered sugar is slowly poured
into warm water. the water will dis.
solve the sugar and appear to absorb
1t without increasing its volume. Sim
Larly. when alcohol is poured into wa.
ter the resulting volume Is less than
the sum Of the two volumes.
For instance. If fifty parts Of water
and fifty parts u alcohol be mixed to-
gether they will make only ninety-four
parts. Apparently one Of the liquids
has entered into the ''pores" of the
other. This experiment. as commonly
performed in Laboratories. consists in
putting measured quantities of the two
liquids together. but the effect would
be far more striking were 1t possible
for students to see one of the liquids
actually ''soaking'' into the other. This
can be done til the following way:
Take two glasses. one filed to- the
brim with water and the other with
alcohol. In order to show the effect
to better advantage. color the alcohol
with red ink. The glasses should not
be over full-that is. the surface Of the
liquid should not bulge above the rim
Of the glass. When everything is
ready. place a sheet of paper over the
glass full of alcohol. and with hand
on the paper to keep 1t down on the
rim Of the glass invert the tumbler.
and the liquid will remain in the glass.
owing to the air pressure on the paper,
Now place the: inverted tumbler over
the glass full Of water and carefully
draw out the paper. This can be done
without splitting a drop Of alcohol, and
yet as soon as the paper Is removed
the alcohol will commence to drop.
Owing to the fact that it is colored it
Is possible to see the alcohol actually
''soaking'' into the water. while tiny
air bubbles that were formerly contain
ed in the ''pores" of the water rise
slowly to the top Of the tumbler. This
Will continue for some little time until
b considerable air space forms In the
top Of the lumber.

THE ARBITRATION PRINCIPLE.


Arbitration between nations Is be-
coming an accepted principle. There
is no more reason why employer and
employee should fight out their differ
ences than there is for nations to 60
to war. Americans should not wait
until a crisis confronts US before we
provide some effective means of arbi'
tration for the settlement of industrial
disputes. The Erdman act Is a step
in the right direction, but 1t does not
go far enough. The provision of such
machinery in a time when 1t can be
accepted without prejudice might save
US from passing through an expert
ence like that which has threatened
to shake England to its foundations.
