DEMONSTRATING PARCEL POST.

The development of parcel post is one of the desires of the postotiice de- partment. That it has grown and is still growing is recognized by more than the department officials hut there still exists many avenues through which it should be extended. There are for instance many who do not realize the advantages which are af- forded by this method of transpor- tation and for that reason there is much to commend in the campaign of education which has been decided upon by the postoffice department, for the instruction of the rural public in it's uses and opportunities at the country fairs.
 The idea is to acquaint at once as many as possible with the advantages permitting the same information to be gained through the longer method of experience by individuals and it is good judgment which recognizes the opportunities which are afforded at the fairs.
 This effort at business acceIeratien for parcel post is on par with pri- vate enterprise and through the dem- onstration of the service which is thus available an endless amount oi good should result. There are un- questionably a, great many waiting te be shown how parcel post can hf made to work for them whether they are city or country residents, and tht proposed display cannot fail to re- suit in a vast increase of interest. and through such interest, more business

ARTIFICIAL PRICES,

The advance in the price of food stuffs warrants the investigations which are being made by government end state authorities for the determi- nation of the responsibility with the view to applying the deserved punish mens should it develop that unjust methods have been employed in mak- ing such inflations. The task is not going 70 be an easy one but the duty is well defined for the ascertaining of the facts. It is but just to the con- sumer that the facts which are back of the application of war prices in time of peace should be revealed. It is plain that fhe influence of the sit pation in Europe will be advanced as the excuse for raiding the pocket books of the buyers but there is . difference between the actual and the imaginary necessity for such a move
 A justified raising of prices, where such is founded upon actual condi- tions, comes often enough, but the piratical raiding of the public. without reason just because a chance is seen to extort the sheke1s from the con- sumner deserves rigid suppression and proper punishment. The people de- serve to be protected against theil enemies, who welcome the slightest pretext to reap the benefit from star. vatfon prices. Fortunately there are crop conditions which do not suppor- certain of the raised prices, and. re. gardless of the war, stamp them en. tirely artificial. The investigation which have been started appear tc have reflected the indignation of tn, consumer They are aimed in tn, right directed and should be con. tinued for the relief which is due. I is time to make it plain that the peo
 pie are not going to be squeezed with
 out cause and fail to resent it.

 'sIow, she demanded in energetic accents, did Bowser and suppose she was going to get her wash hung out Mondays with all that dirt strewn through the center of the grass? Was she to leap mounds like goat? hastily explained that before long the mounds would be filled with beautiful blooming flowers and then I thought that she would have conyuisions Were flowers four feet high any easier to leap than dirt mounds foot high And was she going to have grass hnppers and spiders and bugs all over her white clothes on the line?

This war is not a racial conflict be- tween Teutons and Slavs, as is fanef- fully alleged. The Anglo-Saxon rae Is Teutonic in its origin. but England stands today with Celts in the Brit ish Empire, with France and with Russia In this country there are many Germans who are good citizens choice, intelligent and industrious- When we are seeking to ind the causes of this war and fix the re- sponsIbility, we must not think of race or religion, but of social and govern mental systems.
 The blame of this war rests with the European system It is no exag- geration to say that upon the subject of war Europe is insane. It Is the European system that has resulted in piling up these huge armies that are now being hurled against each other. Great Britain has been trying to dis tenn. The British comnonwealths are opposed to it. In the e-United States with its solid business sense, European feudalism and militarism are regarded as nuisance. Italy has declared ne1 neutrality in the present war. We firmly believe also that France deeirec to keep out of it, and would have done so but for her obligations to Russia. Great Britain is of the new world rather than the old.
