Press Comments.

A sign of the modern trend toward
holding saloOnkeepers to a stricter re-
spOnsibility for the manner in which
they conduct their business is given in
the decision of the Supreme Court of
the United States sustaining a verdict
in the Nebraska courts whereby a wife
obtained S., 1000 damages from a liquor
dealer who sold alcoholic drinks to her
husband, an habitual drunkard. Public
sentiment is reflected in judgements of
this character and the attitude is un-
mistakable. The saloonkeeper, like all
other persons who distribute any POI
tentially dangerous commodity, must
expect to answer for the damage which
may be done, though his share in the
responsibility be only contributory. If,
especially after having been notified not
to do so, he sells to man already plain
ly irresponsible, he should be liable, just
as if he gave dynamite to a lunatic or a
7 loaded pistol to an infant. Evening Bul-
tetin.
The poll tax remains, but a New Jer-
sey citizen may iquidate this tremen-
dously Objectionable and intolerably
burdensome debt ~ in new way. I'm
der an act passed by the recent legisla-
ture, he may refuse to pay, may go to
Jail for fourteen days and at the end of
that time he must be set free. He has
discharged his obligation at the rate of
about seven cents per diem, and has,
meanwhile, been furnished with bed and
board at the public expense. This piece
of legislation originated in Trenton,
where citizen was locked up because he
would not pay his poll tax, and fought
against being compelled to do so. His
case aroused considerable interest, and
Assemblyman Harmon introduced the
bill with this special incident in view.
1t will simply make the collection of
poll taxes more difficult and discredit
them everywhere as a source of local
revenue. Dog taxes are treated the same
as poll taxes, SO that between the two
more dogs and less revenue may result
from the provisions of the new law
NeOdrk NeaOs.
A newly elected President assumes q
very serious responsibility when he
selects man to conduct the foreign af-
fairs of the government. That fact has
been brought home to the American
people since appointment of William
J. Bryan as secretary of state in recogni-
ton of his services in the Baltimore
national convention.
How far all this has contributed to
bringing about a war upon the country,
and how far it made necessary the plea
by the President, rightly or wrongly -
to Congress to practically surrender the
Panama canal to England for it's support
in retrieving the blunders in our foreign
policy, who shall affirm? Secretary
Bryan fiddled while Rome was burning.
As statesman he is the worst failure in
American politics and the most unfor.
tunate selection of any President.-Neao

CANADA Winning
CHAMPIONSHIPS
IN AGRICULTURE
The Latest Is Winning Cham.
pionship for Oats a Third
Time.

Recently was published the fact OF
remarkable winnings by Canadian
farmers In several events during the
past threc or four years. The latest
Is that Of Messrs. J. G. Hill & Sons
Of Lloydminster. Saskatchewan. who
won In hard contest for the oat
championship over Montana. At the
National Corn Exposition at Dallas
during February. Montana oats were
awarded the championship for the
United States. Waiting for the win
ner OF this to be announced was
peck OF oats belonging to the ca.
madam growers above mentioned, and
alongside of these was a like quantity
belonging to a Minnesota grower, who
was barred from the regular compe-
tition because he was at one time the
winner OF the trophy the prize The
three entries were side by side on the
judges bench. II would not be pos
sible to bring, together three more
likely samples. The Montana and
Saskatchewan entries were OF equal
weight-50 pounds to tho bushel. The
Minnesota sample was some three
pounds lighter. The award was
unanimous IN favor OF the Saskatche-
wan oats. A remarkable feature and
one greatly to the credit of the Ca
madam product was that the oats,
grown In 1913, were grown and shown
by those who had competed during
the past two years. winning on each
occasion. This. the third winning
gave them for the third time the
worlds championship and full posses
sion OF the splendid $500 silver
trophy contributed by the state Of
Colorado.
The oats which have thus given TO
Western Canada another splendid ad-
vertising card, were grown 800 miles
north of the international boundary
line, proving that In this latitude, all
the smaller grains can be grown with
greater perfection and with more
abundant yield than further south. In
all this country are to be found farm
ers who produce oats running from
AZ to 4S pounds to the bushel, and
with yields of from 60 to 100 BUSH
els per acre. Wheat also does well
grades high, and yields from 80 to 40
bushels per acre. The same may be
said of any portion OF Manitoba
Saskatchewan and Alberta. famed
over the world not only as country
where championship grains are grown.
but where cattle and horses are raised

where wild grasses are abundant

are grown, thus giving plenty Of feed,
