FOOTBALL OF STATES
INTERESTS

| How the interests of a state are
made a football for politics is evi
denced by conditions which main
| tanned during the. recent election
and which are maintaining today
since the election. For instance take
the Democratic parties of the State
of Utah, and the State of Idaho. Dur.
ing the election the Democrats OF
Utah claimed long and loud for a
public utilities commission, and since
the election they are keeping up the
claim and will no doubt do what
they can to have q commission Of
this kind created. The democracy
of Utah stood for utility commits
sion, and still want such a commits
sion. In our sister state on the
north, Idaho, a utility commission
has been in operation for some time
During the recent election Governor
Haines, Republican, was defeated,
and Governor Alexander, Democrat,
was elected and now comes the an
nouncement that the utility commits
sion of Idaho is struggling for exist
ence. 1t has begun a campaign Of
publicity to show what good it has
done for the State in order to Offset
the assertion of Moses Alexander,
governor elect of Idaho, that the util-
tiles and tax commission, which is
combined in the Gem State, is a use
less appendage to State govern
ment." Verify the ways of Democ'
racy are divergent and contradictory.
Utah is itching for what Idaho has,
and Idaho wants to get rid of what
Utah wants. Isn't 1t too bad that
these two states cannot get togeth'
er and just make an even trade, let
Idaho pass her utilities commission
to Utah so that the Democracy of
both states will be satisfied.

en- us. condition that is somewhat
symptomatic Of the American temper
ament. The four months record,
however, can be summarized thus:
While European countries have been
mobilizing their armies and calling
to the field of battle their reserves
of soldiers, American has mobilized
its credit and begun to send forward
to the market place its vast reserves
of foodstuffs and mineral product.
Secretary Redfield recognizes three
periods Of business condition as nat
urally following the declaration OF
war on August 1, last-those Of shock
stimulation and reimbursement. These
three must be expected to affect in
the same order all branches of Amer.
lean business, though the transition
from one period to the next may not
be simultaneous in all branches.
Thus for several weeks after war
was declared, the expectation of
wheat felt the shock and thousands
of carloads accumulated at eastern
ports. With cotton the period of
shock has been longer. but stimula.
ton Of export has now begun. With
copper the resumption Of sales to
Europe seems slow in coming, but
come 1t must, for In the modern
world, whether at war or at peace,
the red metal is a, necessary Of life.
As We look toward the south we
find that our commerce with South
America for the last four years has
been one sided to the extent of an
unfavorable annual trade ba,ance av.
eraging more than 60 millions of dol
lars. The fact that the balance of
trade Is against the United States I'm
two Of the three "A b c" countries
should be taken only as an invita-
ton to export more, and that 80 mil
lions suggests the chance for further
development of trade relations. We
need meat and hides from Argentina
tin ore from Bolivia, rubber and cot.
fee from Brazil and Venezuela, nj.
trate from Chile. platinum from Co.
lombia, cocoa, from Ecuador, wool
from Peru and Uruguay. What can
we export in exchange?

been called Americas greatest unde-
veloped asset. They are fine,
strong, rugged people, very much
like the folk who made Scotland the
most learned nation of Europe. They
need education In better farming,
better fruit growing, better stock
raising, better use of the hills and
valleys of their native land. Their
soil Is not an easy one to make prof
table, but in the hands Of Japanese
or Swiss it would render its cnltivat-
ors prosperous and happy. The Ken
tuckians of the hills are capable Of
doing just such wonders with their
mountains as the Swiss and Japan
csc have done with theirs. All they
need to that end is not so much
schools as a new sort Of schools.
For that matter, we need them all
over the country. AS the matter now
stands, about the only good schools,
save in few favored localities, are
those attended by the boys and girls
in reformatories, the schools for the
Indians, and the nipa hut schools Of
the Philippines.
Let us hope that the new impulse
in Kentucky will lead to state of
things under which children who
have not committed any crime may
have as good schooling as though
they had.

THE NEWSPAPER MAN

And sometimes unbearably rude.

He kisses US. loves US, and leaves

Our mothers won't have him come

He's no earthly good as CATCH"
His molars. they say, are appalling.
His finances usually match.
Hes rollicking. reckless, uncaring.
Living but for the hour, the day;
He's dangerous, dubious, daring
Not fit for a husband they say.

But somehow we girls are forgiving-
Perhaps he but needs us the more
Because he goes wrong In the living
And knows the old world to Its core.
So we pass by the dude and the
schemer
Who lead in society's van,
And cherish the thinker and dreamer
Enshrined In the Newspaper Man.

READING, WRITING,

A state illiteracy commission has
been appointed in Kentucky for the
purpose Of getting rid of the reproach
to the State that lies in the fact that
2GS,000 grownup Kentuckians cannot

side. ssMst
Iliteracy Is to be fought in many
ways, but the most interesting
means Is the moonlight schools" in
which volunteer teachers are con
Quoting evening classes. 1t is stat.
ed that through the leadership OF
one woman, Mrs. Cora Wilson Stew
art, county superintendent OF Row.
an county, illteracy has been entire
ly wiped out in that county in three
years. If this statement Is correct 1t
Is only additional proof that the
most wonderful opportunities for So
cial service ia these days lie in the
position OF county superintendent OF
schools.
When illiteracy Is wiped out, what
then? The mastery of the three RS
is the basis of every sort of educa-
ton, but there is no magic in read
ing, writing, and arithmetic to trans
form man or woman. In them
SO YES they are only tools.
What, let me ask, does the State

The Next House VIII PROBABLY DC
Democratic BY 10 and the Senate
BY IL.
Washington, Nov 4. - The empty
dinner pail has again asserted ltsel
in the election of members OF the
Tinted States senate and house OF
representatives.
The large majority in the house and
the comfortable one in the senate held
by the Democrats have been very
greatly reduced.
The indications are that the house
will be Democratic by a majority OF
nineteen and the senate will nave
ffty-five Democrats, forty RepuDh-
cans and one Progressive.
The lone Progressive seems to be
CONGRESSMAN Poindexter, of Wash
ington. The only Progressive candl-
date for congress from the city OF
New York who was in the last con.
eress. Walter NJ. Chandler, represent.
ing the Nineteenth congress district,
seems to have won over Mr.. Butten-
weiser. The result, however, Is still
in doubt.
Joseph G. Cannon, for many years
speaker of the house of representa-
tives, has been elected from his old
Danville, Ills. district.
Senator Sherman, of Illinois, insists
that he is elected over his Democratic
opponent, Roger c. Sullivan. Bo1es
Penrose has been returned to the SEN
ate from Pennsylvania, where Clifford
Pinchot, former United States for
ester, gave Penrose a hard fight. Re.
turns indicate that Palmer was third
in the race.
Oscar w. Underwood has been cas-
fly elected to the United States sen.
ate from Alabama, and Hoke Smith
has been reelected in Georgia.
In Missouri Senator William j.
Stone, the Democratic candidate, has
been elected over Thomas ]. Atkins,
Republican. The vote was the heav.
lest cast in years.
Meager returns from Kansas indi-
cate that the congressional delega-
ton will have four Democrats and
four Republicans.
Out in Arizona they had warm
fight, but Governor Hunt is probably
reelected by about 10000.
In Massachusetts, the Progressiyes
suffered almost as badly as poor Bel.
GUM. Bull Moosers returned to the
Republican party in droves, and Gov.
ernor David I. Walsh squeezed In by
. plurality Of about $1,000 over Sam
uel J. Mccall. the Republican candi-
date. Joseph Walker, the Progressive
candidate, polled less than 10000
votes, while year ago Bird, the Pro.
gressive candidate for governor, poll
ed 12o.655.
Governor Simeon E. Baldwin, OF
Connecticut, is probably defeated for
United States senate on the Demo
cratic ticket
In New Jersey It was the same
story Of Republican victory. The Re
publicans got control of the senate
and will probably have a majority of
the lover house. >CongEess@aaafn sasff iien-
B. Walsh. representing President Will
sons own congressional district, was
defeated. Two years ago he received
= majority of 1900.
