A GLIMPSE OF HISTORY
Louisville Courier-Journal.

Stately columns of white Batesville stone, topped with Ionic capitals and supporting balcony of the same stone, make a dignifed setting to the main entrance.
 The building is of exceptional strength to resist the weight of vi bration of heavy machinery. The frame and floors are of concrete, with extra re-enforcing. At the west end over the pressroom, 40foot steel girders, resting on steel posts, carry the floor of the stereotyping and com posing rooms, which is designed to bear 600 pounds to the square foot From description of the St. Joseph News-P Press Building.
 A century ago, less dozen years, Joseph RbidouX, a St. Louisan of French parentage established a trad ing post known as the Black Snake Hills" The country for hundreds of miles in every direction was a wild erness primeval inhabited by Indians The trading post became a small town. It's advance in population was slow, till the wilderness began to give way to agriculture and industries The town which grew rapidly. The population of St. Joseph at different periods tell the story. In 1880, 32,431; in 1890, 2,324; in 1900, 102, ,979; in 1903, 120,- 900. Later census figures than those of 1903 are not, at the moment, avail able.
 In an attractive booklet the St. Joseph News-Press describes it's new home It is a newspaper plant of dis tinction. The description of the build ing calls attention to the rapid progress of St. Joseph. There is no surer indicator of the character of a community than the newspaper that community supports.
 TO what proportions may not St. Joseph grow in another century? And as it grows the News-Press, provided the wisdom of it's management con tinues, will grow. If Joseph RibidouX could awake for a moment from his long sleep, how he would rub his eyes and stare at Black Snake Hills" transformed, But in 20l4 the News Press will find St. Joseph as greatly transformed. The story of the de- velopment of the West is still in its opening chapters.

GASOLINE AND THE END
Chicago Herald.


 Among the miscellaneous war items from London, printed in Thursdays Herald Is one that students of the ma. terial resources of the combatants have been looking for, and one which .glves a new significance to what is evidently the leading feature of the Russian plan of campaign.
 This item notes that "by her con- quests in Galicia, Russia now controls the greatest supply of gasoline in Europe" That is the fact, and if the Russian conquest is assured and held it is fact that may count for much in fixing the duration of the war.
 The gasoline motor truck has been an outstanding feature of the German transport organization. All the corre- spondents with the Germany army have much to say about it. Germany has, however, no oil fields of her own. All oversea and Russian supplies have been cut off since Aug. 1. Germany had only the Galician fields to draw upon.
 With these in the hands of the ene- my, Germany has to depend on stores of gasoline on hand, unless she can beat back the Russian armies and de- feat the allied fleets. What these stores are no one this side of the Att lantic knows. Available statistics of the oil trade shows no extraordinary shipments to Germany in the months before the war.
 When the importance to Germany of the Galacian oil fields is considered we see another reason, in addition to those given by our military experts for Russia throwing the main weight of her advance upon Galacia rather than upon East Prussia. The way of Galacia may have seemed a long way to Berlin. Yet it may prove the short CT way.

THE HOME PAPER

Ex Governor Francis once said the following of newspapers: "Each year the local paper gives from $500 to $1,OOO in free lines to the community in which it is located. No other agen- cy can or will do this. The editor. in proportion to his means, does more for his town than any other ten men. and in all fairness he ought to be SUD- ported-not because you like him or admire his writings, but because the local paper is the best investment a community can make. It may not be brilliantly edited or crowded with thought, but financially it is of more benefit to the community than the preacher or teacher. Understand me. l do not mean mentally and yet on moral questions you will find most of the papers on the right side. Today the editor of the local papers do the most for the least money of any per son on earth"

Hard Lines.

Girard, in Philadelphia Ledger.
 The misery in some households is pitiable. Word comes to me by first rate authority that in one Main Line place where 45 servants were employ ed 23 have been dismissed.
 No, I'm not thinking especially about the lot of those 23-baleful num- Der though it be-who have lost their employment, but of the hardships en- dured by the family which has but 22 remaining helpers.
 You have all read the plight of that celebrated lady: Miss Flora McFlimsy of Madison Square
 Who had nothing in all this wide world to wear.
 Although her father had just i'm ported for her a shipload of Parisian gowns.
 So the destitute family in that Main Line abode with it's remaining P servants calls for pity. But don't send your subscriptions for relief to me, because I shall not guarantee to for ward them. Who knows but 1 might send the money to the 23 who were dismissed?

THE VOICE OF SCIENCE.

Another solar plexus blow has been dealt the liquor traffic. The alienists and neurologists of the United States, assembled in convention In Chicago, adopted resolutions condemning alco- holic beverages and recommending that the various state legislatures take steps to eliminate their use.
 Tt has been definitely established, this body of scientists affirmed, that alcohol when taken into the system acts as a definite poison to the brain and other tissues, and that the effects of this poison are directly or indirect ly responsible for a large proportion of the insane, epileptic, feeble-m minded and other forms of mental moral and physical degeneracy."

Aged Hare.

About 500 years ago there lived in Agshelin, little town in Asia Minor, an imam, or village parson, the Khoja Nasr-ed-Din Elfendi. Harry Charles Lukach says that one day a camel passed along the street in which the Khoja lived, and one of the Khojas neighbors who had never seen a camel before ran to ask him what this strange beast might be.
 Don't you know what this is?" said the Khoja, who also had never seen a camel, but would not betray his igno. rance. That is a hare a thousand years old.'

PERTINENT QUESTIONS.

A young man in a neighboring coun- ty seat was fined for intoxication. and the fine was remitted on condition that he stay sober until July 4. Is 1t fair to a man who has acquired the drink appetite to put saloons in his way and then demand that he stay sober? Ev- cry time he sees saloon or smells the odor that comes from one he has an uncomfortable desire to go in and fill up. Is 1t fair to set traps to create the desire, inflame 1t to the point of desperation, and when he falls to pun ish him for 1t? Is 1t not true that If you vote for saloons you are to blame for the shame and misery they unload on the community? - Uhrichsville Chronicle

THE HOMELESS VICTIMS
Pittsburg Dispatch

The compassion of the world has been concentrated upon the victims on the firing line in the great war and upon the women and children widowed and orphaned by the struggle, but there is a vast multitude of other vic tins. those rendered homeless by the ravages of war. The half million re- fugees from the Antwerp district who have fled towards Holland are con- crete example But these are only a fraction of the staggering total of the population affected by the warfare m Belgium and Northern and Eastern France. who have fled for refuge to Central, Western and Southern France to England and to Holland. Consd- CT also the population of Galicia over run bv the armies of Russia and the flight of the residents of East prus- sia on the advance of the Czar's le- gions. It is estimated that, all told, there must have been fully 3,000,0O0 people made homeless by the fighting around their homes, the destruction of houses, the trampling of crops and the bombarding of villages towns and cities.
 The plight of those poor people may be imagined from the reports from Brussels. Appeal for outside help Tn the way of provisions and necessities for these unfortunates, who Tn many cases have lost all they had in the world. has been met with the difficulty that such aid is contraband and cannot be given lest it be diverted to the benefit of the enemy. That IS the po- sirion taken by Holland to preserve it's neutrality and it also prevents as sistance being sent from England, the other most available resource. With the approach of winter these terrible conditions must be intensified. what is to become of these noncombatant victims of the war? Added to the sacrifice of life on the battle field and

BACK WITH THE SALOON"

(By LUCIA FAXON ADDITION, of the
 National w. C. T. U. Labor Depart
 ment, in the Union Signal)
 In connection with the national movement to prevent industrial acci- with the saloon" This crusade was resolved upon, it seems, at a session of the Foundrymen's association con- ference held last October. It IS truly signif1cant-a straw telling the way of the wind. A committee was appoint ed which completed will represent every state It will enlist the CO., operation of the governors, state leg islatures and license commissioners.
 Thomas D. West, manager of the Steel Foundry company of Cleveland, chairman of this committee, in re- cent article in The Survey (Decem- Der 20) gives conclusive arguments why the slogan, Back With the saloon," is "a safety first measure" He states that the very fact that sal oons cluster round industrial plants, especially near the entrances and ex- It's, demonstrates that the patronage of the factory hands Is greatly prized. T1pplers among these men are bound to be less cautious than others even though employed in dangerous trades, he declares, adding that saloons near establishments having machinery are crime contributing factors to the acci- dents occurring and that this fact alone should interest every manufac- turer, society, state and municipal au- thority now taking active part in our nations crusade of safety first"
 Think of the inconsistency of com pensation laws making employers H. able to the payment of heavy in- demnity while at the same time our laws license saloons to be located next door to factories to sell employees drink that weakens their limbs and be- fuddles their brains thNs, without doubt, making them more liable to ac- cidents that all the safety appliances in the world could not prevent.

UNIVERSITY ASKS FOR
 RURAL EXPERTS

Fayetteville, Ark.-Dean Jewell of the School of Education of the Uni versity of Arkansas in his annual re- port to President Futrall har request ed that provision be made next year for the employment of an expert in rural education and one in agricultur- al education. A few years ago when the University accepted from the Pea body Board a gift of $40,000 to put up building for the Department of Education, it was agreed that as soon as possible $10,000 per year should be devoted to the employment of teachers giving their entire time to the work of education or normal work as it is commonly called. On account of the fact that Arkansas is so large ly an agricultural and rural state, Dean Jewell thinks that 1t is of the greatest importance that the two eX perts mentioned be added to the fac ulty. The employment of two cap able men for this work would about consume the remainder of the $10,000 which the University promised to sup ply.

 sss ' conference committee, without
 'ns a,o nenalties, illustrate the two
 D.9.t ;uts of view with regard to business
 s,,eording to President Wilson, the
 .,;act of this part of the thew charter 0s' 's 's'froedom" is as much to let business ,am what it can legally do as to s.rbid a illegal practices. According to Ss..tor e, Reed and others, this, as well 's au the other allied legislation, dirpcted at thieves, rogues and soundrels."
 According to President Wilson, the
 .,o;oritv of the large business con-
 ,orns of the country want to know
 rhat the law is that they may abide
 bv it According to the other gentle
 men they want to know what it is in Order that they may violate it.
 According to President Wilson, the obiect of all legislation embraced un- dor his expressive phrase, 'the new charter of freedom" is to help the h,sness of the country by making it's Dath clear. According to divers cri- ties it is to afford the public the pleasure of seeing some wealthy per sons lugging large ball and chain around.
 President Wilson goes on the theory that the business men of the country, as rule, are honest, patriotic and well-meaning. Certain Senators evi- dently think not. President Wilson is satisfied for the present with the large powers over business conferred by the trade commission bill and the anti trust act. Senator Reed seems to think the highest exercise of governmental power is to put somebody in jail.
 The President wants reform. The opposition wants a good, rousing cam paign cry. The President believes in the cooperation of business. The other side believes in prosecution. The President stands for a constructive program. The other gentlemen ap- parently hold a jail sentence is the essence of constructive policy
 The President believes in getting something done at all events. Senate rial objectors want nothing done if it Is not exactly what they want done. President Wilson stands for the princi- pal Of reasonable comparison in legis- latlon. Certain Senators stand for in- dlvidualistic obstruction.
 The Clayton antitrust measure is probably not perfect. Few bills are. put Tn Its conference form it fairly represents the spirit in which the whole legislation was conceived and put forward, In connection with the trade commission bill, it gives the gov Vrhment Immense power for the pre- 'ehton and correction of the evils With which it deals.
 moreover, opponents of the measure aS It came from the conference can 'omfort themselves with the reflection 'nat law is always open to amend neh' II later experience or discus 'ion Snows the need of injecting more u the spirit of the jail sentence advo- 'a'es In this legislation there will be pienVy Of opportunity to do it.-Chi- 'ago Herald Gnd.)
