Notwithstanding the crop failures in parts of the country the past season and the reduced production in others the department of agriculture reports show that the value farm products for the season will be between $9.O0O000OOO and $1000000O000 Practically all these products are yet to be moved to the market the manufacturer This movement will take place at a time when there is an active movement of coal before Q movement of merchandise from the commercial centers has been completed.

THE "ToMMYROT" SONGS.

tSt Louis Globe DemocraD
 pr C. r. Sutherland editor of the missionary publications of the Episcopal church, has made adjective of the more forceful than elegant noun "tommyrot." and applied to certain songs sung in the churches of the present. His chief objection is the score of sefishness there being much T and me business in them He pleads for a substitution of strong hymns that breathe spirit of helpmlness and service. Dr. Sutherland displayed caution in not singng out any particular song of the "tommyrot' type. MT Wilson once assaiIed Beautiful Isle of Somewhere,' and defenders that all over the country It is deal in general than specific criticism. Nobody would defend "tommyrot hymns or those filled with the spirit of selfishness But there would diversity of opinion as to classification of particular hymns What Is tolnHSio' to one worshipper may contain comfort for another, and the same individual favors different hymns Tn dH- ferent moods.
 Then the tune is often what appeals to the singer instead of the words. The old practice of lining hymns called attention the words. But that has been abandoned and many singers could tell to save their lives what the h\Ihh was really about within five minutes after they finished singing it. Even the minister often dis regards You may omit the thlfd stS7n4a" has become a hackneved direction. Often the third stanza contains the kernel Of the song meaning. on the other hand, occasionally min ister will announce a famous hymn with the brief description it's author and the circumstances un- der which it was composed. The leeHhs u%lSt % lF thrown the singing only accentuates the lack o attention given the ordinary hymn Too often the words seem fitted to the music instead "i ue music fitted to the words.
 But oftener still neither words nor music would seem to conduce to xorshipfuI attitude. Such songs have often been satirized- They are of the "sanctifed rafter and blessed hereafter type. one ,,o+ed clarqvnan p9rodied one to read: Rip up the floor and open the door and let a httle sun shine in" often metaphors are hopelessly mixed one sunday-school book has song in which some body is directed take the dear lambs by the hand" There is a song "Oh to Be Nothing that ntoe ba,,a ba1d nm +o pnominv as the ultima thule of spiritual emptiness.

Pnchot, who has been more closely identified with the conservation policy of the government than any other man and who is the chairman of the conservation division of the national progressive servce aided by Messrs Fisher and Stimson led brilliant and winning fight for the people against great odds and splenddly organized force representing the special interests. The latter in the committee resolutions, but it defeated the floor of the congress. It hard there to offer any in favor of monopoly. The friends people wide awake and through the transparent argument against nationaI> control the power sites and the
 We have had no opportunity yet to read the arguments but presume there not ttion of the threadbare statement that conser Vation policy is dog in the manager policy, tying up of the country's resources. That would hardly be offered before body composed who fairly familiar with the governments policy and also familiar with the influences which seek ing to overthrow it. That argument is reserved for use by reactionary newspapers for consumption by those who not informed and who mary easily believe that if the government would release it's grip on the power sites the wheels of industry would hum in many mountain fastness.
 The most favorte argument against the ma tonal conservation policy is state control. While it is unsound, it it is specfous altogether unattractve but it could be of any force before a body well informed the conservation con gress which understands that back it there is nothing but monopoly and private greed.

The Highways Commission.

The board of supervisors has acted with mendable promptness in the appointment of a partisan Advisory Highways Committee o with the board in the bringing about permanent good roads system for this county, in compliance with recommendation by the conference good roads delegates last week.
 All sections of the county represented in the committee well they may be in a com mittee of seven members, and member is a of standing in the community n which he resides. All of them, believe, interested in the good roads movement. As public citizens who have made of their own affairs it may be expected that they will apply methods and the same degree of diligence the important matters which to be ntrusted them by the supervisors.
 Modification of their appointment will be to them at once, after which. suppose there will be early organization of the committee preparation for gathering together the information that will enable itself and the board of supervisors to proceed to the great task which the people through their delegates in the conference signfied they wanted performed.

Platform Planks.

Tn a signed editorial occupying half the ed- toraI page the New York American. William Randolph Hearst attacks the so-called Mexican policy of this government the vacillaton, the hesi- tation and the frequent turning about of our for eign office, all of which AIr Hearst holds the president solely responsible. MT. Hearst curiousIy onits mention his ancient enemy MT. Bryan, whom might have been expected to include in his anathema. utimatums MT, Hearst de- cIares have excited only derision in Mexico and caused d loss of prestige there and every where.
 But the course of our government as to Mexico is declared by AIr Hearst to be in violation of a plank Baltimore convention, which he quotes. herein is. us, the most interesting point of the editorial. The plank guarantees to Americans living abroad and engaged in peaceful and lawful pursuits the protection of this government. The plank is garbed in high sounding phrases, calcu- lated make the American blood faster. There is in it no specific aIusion Mexico, but plainly the national democratic convention had Mexico in mind. such plank far can recall that other party had ever inserted in a platform It was evidently intended appeal the and probably intended for no other purpose.
 This is not the first time that MT. Hearst has charged Mir. Wilson with violation of the demo- platform. Though pretending to support him, before the campaign year months old, the American directed attention to a variance between his utterances and the sentiment of the platform with respect the tariff
 MT. Hearst must bear in mind that con struction of party platforms by candidates and elected officials is no new thing. Taft 1908 after Chicago convention issued a supplemental platform touching upon matters which the conven- rejected, still later after the election, it appeared neither the president his party regarded themselves as bound by either the ventfon the supplemental platform.
 The supporters of President Wilson may find two grounds for defense against the criticisms of MT. Hearst, but they cannot occupy both of them. They must a choice. may be argued that the president has done all that could be done sstent with public policy for the protection of Americans Mexico; that he has arranged for their safe removal from the country and s1red them that their property interests will be looked after later.
 Or, it may be said that the plank dis honestly conceved that such observance O MT. Hearst desires, intervention, would be trary to public policy and would involve this try a prolonged in which the loss prop erty and lives would be immensely greater than might be sustained by all the Americans who were in Mexico the time of the Baltimore convention.
 But what have had say about the party platform plank has bearing upon the allegation of Hearst that there has q great deal of backing and filling, and that the prestige of our foreign office has suffered somewhat could have arrived where now, whether it is where ought to be in dignified manner, by the easy process of standing still

There was great joy at Fort Sheri- dan, near Chicago, few days ago, when a lot of Uncle Sam's sturdy soldier boys stationed there were sent to the Mexican border The soldiers all agreed that it would be a terrible thing to have war, but if 1t must come they were mighty glad they were going to be right on the border where they could have the first crack at the greasers.
