THOSE STOLEN LETTERS.

A Congressional committee is making much ado over locating 'Willic" Winktield, negro mes senger. who figured in the pho- tographing of the private cores pondence of John D. Archbold, the vice president and political manager of the Standard Oil com pany.
 All of this may be interesting and Winkficld may be punished for his part in the deal. but that is very small matter, when re- suits are considered. The cold fact remains that Mr. Hearst ob- tained the series of letters which showed that Senator FOraker, Senator Bailey, Senator Penrose, Congressman Sibley, a group of governors and other officials high in public life were on the pay roll of the Standard Oil company while Ostensibly serving the American people at Washington. The letters showed that MT. Arch bold, from his office at 26 Broad way, wrote or wired to his hench- men at Washington, giving them instructions concerning what bills to kill or press for enact- ment, what candidates to reward and what to punish and what part they should play in running the affairs of government to the lik- ing of the Standard Oil crowd.
 It is not going to help the ac- cused and convicted politicians in the least to send Whitfield to prison for the larceny of the let ters. His crime. compared With theirs, shines as virtue. He played his part, criminal though it may have been, in performing a real service to the American people by exposing. through MT. Hearst's newspaper agencies, the duplicity and corruption of men high in official stations.

would have about ninety factories

That would mean that Iowa would
not only produce her own sugur. but
would produce enough to export three
times the amount which she at present
consumes. Although such stage Of
development is far cry from the
present situation, facts and figures
show that it is by no means a mere
