WHAT THE PAPERS SAY

Queer, dealer and consumer are pro-
noted. AS described, the bureau will
become a clearing house for excess
production dispOsing of fruits. ber-
ries, butter, eggs, poultry fish, meats,
and other food articles, where there is
a demand for them, at a minimunf of
expense to seller and buyer. The
company is responsible for both, de-
livering the commodities to the buyer
door and the money to the seller. with
out any intervening agency. The rate
on the class of merchandise for which
the bureau is designed is 25 per cent
below the commercial rate fixed by the
interstate commerce commission and
is no higher than the parcel post
charges.
This new system will, when fully
developed, prove a great convenience
TO buyer and seller, especially the lat
TT when he is also the producer. 1t
will probably cut deeply into the busi-
ness of the commission merchant, but
that will not worry the farmer any.
Many farmers will not have anything
TO do with him anyway, for they have
had unfortunate experiences in ship
ping things to be sold on commission
which have convinced them that the
prospect of a profitable return when
products are disposed of in that way is
too uncertain to be attractive.-Erie

PREvf.NTIoX Oh WRECKs.

Following the wreck of the Empress
OF Ireland the frank admission is made
in maritime circles that 70 build an
unsuitable ship is impossible. Long
ago this was known TO be true, but il
was not admitted.
All ships being sinkable the prob
lem for solution is the prevention or
the causes of sinking first and pro-
visions for rescue second. If means
can be devised by which ships will not
collide the danger of wrecks will be
greatly reduced. Preventive means
employed are signal lights, fog horns,
sirens, bells and rockets, but these
frequently fail on account of weather
conditions The search has been for
some means of signalling that would
not be SO affected.
Bells and other types Of submarine
signals have been confined to coast
warnings, but how a more extended
use is being made of them and they
are being so perfected that in the
absence of gross negligence collisions
between ships will be practically i'm
possible. The use of bells to produce
sound under water has its difficulties,
but recently it has been found that
the Morse telegraph code can be sue
cessfully conveyed for long distances.
In a recent experiment. in Massa-
chusetts bay. Morse code messages
were distinctly heard at distance of
thirteen miles. That sort of efficiency
insures safety. and it will not be long
probably before all vessels will be
equipped 10 send out warnings of their

THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

Before Ohio established working
mems compensation. the average
award in damage suits arising from
accidental killings in industry was less
than $1,000, of which large part
went to lawyers.
Thus far under the new state in
surance plan the average award for
accidental deaths has been $2,551, of
which the surviving dependents got
all.
The measure of justice is still un-
filled. for nobody will CLAIM that

TWO WISE OPINIONS.

The supreme court Of the great state
of Texas has settled two vexing ques-
tons, and the legal fraternity all over
the United States expresses much in
terest in the opinions
The court has decided that liquor
is not intoxicating liquor unless it
will make a person drunk who drinks
it," To call whisky an intoxicating
liquor, then, is unfair. Legally speak
ing ii is not intoxicating until it in
toXicateS somebody.
Those who are able TO split hairs
or 20 twist Noah WebSter'S language
around so that yes means no, will find
great comfort in his opinion
The other opinion has to do with
dogs. The dog, his rights, his bites
and the liabilities Of his master have
ever been fruitful sources of litigation
The mOoted opinion holds it is no
longer necessary, in order to hold the
owner of a dog loable for q personal
injury inflicted by the canine, that the
dog lay proper predicate by first
biting another person, thus charging
his owner with notice of his vicious
ness. 1t is held that recovery may be
had for injury inflicted by a dog with
out alleging that the dog was mis-
chieVOus or vicious. In other words
a dog is vicious when he bites, even il
he wasn't vicious before.
The dog decision is right in line
with the Intoxicating liquor decision
Liquor is intoxicating only when il
makes a man drunk and dogs are
vicious only when they bite.
Having settled these two great facts
TO the satisfaction of themselves anC
everybody else concerned, the mem
bers of the supreme court of Texas

MIR. JOY AND THE NEWSPAPERS.


Mr.. Henry b. Joy, president of the
Packard Automobile company, is, of
course, quite within his rights when he
suggests to manufacturers that it is
their privilege to refrain from adver-
Using in any publication which in their
judgment is doing their business harm
by advocating certain policies of gov
eminent. Mr.. Joy is supposed to refer
to newspapers that are supporting
Pres. Wilson in his campaign of trust
regulation following his campaign of
tariff revision and currency reform.
But we would like TO suggest TO Mr..
JOY that any advertisement which he
might insert in a newspaper that would
be influenced in its editorial policy by
such an argument" would not be
worth a tinker's barrier or a COnfed-
crate dollar y newspaper that would
be so Influenced would not be read by
self-respecting persons and certainly
not by men whose custom would be
worth soliciting.
on the other hand, many will SYM
pathize with any position which Mr..
JOY might take for reprisals on news
papers that for cheap political ends
have been exaggerating the state Of
business depression and predicting all
sorts of calamities for the American
people
But when all IS said and done the
boycott" remains a cowardly, un-
American thing-too quickly resorted
10 by sects. races and trades unions.

employ IT,
