But he is here in peace, not war. To
injure him now might cost hundreds
of lives. Let him give his message to
General Harmar; after that we shall
know how to deal with the skunk. At
least do not hold this against me;

Brady loosened his grip on his gun,
and took my hand.

HIS PERIOD OF ENJOYMENT
Farmer Surely Had Earned Rest, But,
He Waited Just a Little
Bit Too Long.

Once there lived farmer who
worked so hard he was too tired to go
to church on Sunday, says Frank Tel
ford in Farm and Fireside. His hired
men refused to stand for the first
and last call to breakfast at 3:45 in
the morning and left before the end
of the week His wife MIXED the
cows and hoed the garden because
help was so hard to keep. The farm
er voted against hard roads, and when
he was elected to the school board
hired for teacher a young girl just out
of high school, because she would
take the job for $50 a month. In
short, he squeezed the dollars so hard
the eagle screamed. He would steal
acorns from blind pig.

WAITING ON POLITICS
Why Business of the Country Is
Being Halted.
President Wilson's Desire to Make a
Record Is Responsible for Depres-
sion Through Which the
Country Is Passing.

The teeth" have been amended out
of the administrations antitrust bills
that have so far been made public in
their altered form. The bill as they
stand are innocuous and needless. The
changes amount to a practical con-
cession of the position that it was
either dangerous or useless to change
the Sherman law. The trades commits
sion bill in its present form gets no
where. The holding companies bill
equally gets nowhere. Both, if they
are put upon the statute books, will
not alter the policy of the government
toward trusts in any significant degree
or, what is just as important, make 1t
any clearer.
Why should the recovery Of business
be held up while congress adopts a
program of no more consequence than
that of the administration promises to
be after it takes it's final shape? If the
present law was not adequate to re-
strain excessive combinations and
monQpolies, we should say that it
should be strengthened, even in the
existing business exigency. But the
general testimony is that the law is
strong enough. In its latest bills it
does not add to the laws vigor. And
the attempt to define restraint of
trade, according to the view of Wash
ington, is going to be abandoned.
The amended trades commission
bill is not of much Importance. 1t
merely gives a new name to an old
thing. The powers which it is pro
posed to confer upon the new commits
sion are substantially those now ex'
ercised by the bureau Of corporations.
The trades commission would have
slightly more initiative with respect
to securing publicity than the present
bureau possesses; that with a change
of name is all the bill in its present
form provides.
The holding companies bill apparent
| ly will add little or nothing to the re
sources of the government in dealing
with restraint of trade as it is prac-
tised through the holding company de-
vice. All that the attorney general
will be able to do when that bill is en-
acted into law he Is able to do now
under the Sherman act, if indeed, in
an attempt to be specific, congress
does not weaken the effect of the
broad and inclusive prohibitions Of
that act.
The only exigency that requires the
amendment of the Sherman act now Is
party exigency. Mr.. Wilson wants
| to make a record. If the latest form
Of the administration bill is a guide
any enactment with regard to the
trusts, however superfluous and lack
ing in real significance, will be sufn
cient to constitute a record. Mean
while the business of the country mus
perforce adopt Mr.. Wilson's Mexican
policy of 'sWatchful Waiting"

small stream gazing down into the
clear water, my thought centering
upon the journey homeward, when the
bushes opposite parted, and a man

Some time ago Pat decided to make

When the farmer was fifty he had
a half section of good black land in
the corn belt and money in the bank.
He moved to town to enjoy a hard
earned rest But his stomach was SO
tired of corn bread and bacon that it
went on a strike and the farmer ate
milk toast. He could predict storm
before the first cloud appeared, by
the creaking of his joints, and he had
to call for help to turn over in bed.
One day his doctor said he had made
enough money to buy new touring
car and the farmer died of heart dis
ease.
