All hail. dear friends OF Aud Lang Syne.
We give you JOY with hearts aglow:
May this the wedding day oetshine
of five and twenty years ago.
How long and vet how brief the time,
Now bright with joy, now dim with
tears;
Yet gratefuller than poets rhyme
The memory of the vanished years.
In those dark days when you were wed.
While all the land was filed with
strife.
Love lived, though disquieted.
And still preserved the joy of life.
Love, brave, unselfish, lived through all
Your wedding chime was roll of drum.
The cannons boom, the bugle's call
Your stern epithalamum.
You grieve not, to have hravely dared
And suffered for your country's needs.
Let Heaven be praised that you were
spared
The soldiers shroud. the widows
weeds.
And years more kind have brought you
And gentle joys of welded love,
And labor's zest, and fair increase
OF wealth, the misers wealth above
The angel crowned with asphodels
Five times has crossed your threshold
But he with wreath of amaranth,
And glowing pinions, half score.
Thanks for these household treasures
given
To glad you more than beaten gold:
Thanks for those little ones in Heaven,
Safe in the gentle Shepherds fold
The years have come, the years have
gone,
In shine and shade as e'er they must:
But none that you have looked upon
Have robbed you of your love and trust
The years may come, the years may go.
And bleach the locks, and dim the eyes,
And make the footsteps few and slow,
But love of true hearts never dies.
Heaven grant you other peaceful years,
AS blest as any that have run;
May rainbows tint each shower of tears
Each cloud grow bright toward set of
sun.
Heaven grant you store of sweet content,
And fruits of joy that never blight;
And when life's changeful day is spent,
AT evening time may there be light.
-TTueman S, Perry.

State Board Of Health Visits York

The State Board of Health recently
made a trip to York to investigate the
stories which have been put into cir
culation there regarding several cases
OF sickness which have occurred there
lately. The Old York Transcript In
speaking of the visit of the board,
says:
Owing to the fact that hundreds
Of stories have been started it is i'm
practicable for anyone to believe any,
thing until the Boards report is res
eeived. The Transcript assures its
readers that there is no cause for a
wholesale alarm over the few cases
reported, and that the report of the
board will unquestionably show that
nothing of an alarming nature exists
there"

BUSINESS SECURITY.
Stagnation In All Countries, Not
Insuring This Security.

One of the most important
questions of the day relates to
the extent to which a govern
ment should interfere in the af-
fairs of business. The success
full man has always had to run
the risk of attack. Safety from
unreasonable interference by
government or attack by others
leads the ambitious man on to
his greatest eXertions. In some
countries, as in parts of Asia,
government rapacity has made
1t dangerous for man to ac-
quire anything beyond his bare
necessities. In such q society,
nothing but poverty and bust
ness stagnation can exist.
Governmental Intervention in
the affairs OF business should
extend only over such things as
are necessary for fair publicity
and truthful statements. Under
such a government, business SCI
eurity is at its best. Individual
ity and initiative are enoour-
aged; the country is progressive,
and its future prosperity is we'll
guarded. But as soon as legis-
lation begins to deprive the pro-
Queer of square deal, or where
business Is regulated" by peo-
pie without the experience and
necessary training. business Sc
curity will be transformed into
business depression. A govern
ment should be limited to its
natural functions of Just and
reasonable legislation for the
greatest good of the greatest
number of people, and should
never show favors in order to
"catch votes" or to secure cam
paign contributions.

Washington, d. c., Sept. (SpeciaD
High prices of food stuffs continue to
engage administration attention and
some interesting facts are being de-
veloped Grand jury indictments are
expected in short order, especially in
the District of Columbia, where the IN
vestigations are possibly a little more
advanced than in other cities. All along
the line the same variety of reports
are being received. Special agents of
the Department Of Commerce have
been inquiring in several localities and
their conclusions coordinate in num-
erous respects. One feature Is that
retailers have advanced their prices
much more slowly than the whole
salers. This was the report made by
special agents both in Washington and
Boston. Managers of the big cold
storage warehouses have in many in
tances refused to supply Information
to federal authorities, presumably on
the ground that it is not a matter over
which the federal authorities have any
jurisdiction.
There seems to have been an un-
usual amount of speculation in flour
and sugar and the prospects are that
indictments will result IN the federal
courts. Probably there have been no
combinations between wholesalers and
retailers in those products but the re-
tailers are naturally affected, when
ever wholesalers advance prices. Much
talk has been heard about increased
prices for olive oil, which may figure
more or less in the forthcoming litiga-
ton. The Department of Justice has
received from a big olive oil house
copy of it's circular to the trade in All
gust, which states that notwithstand-
ing the price of olive oil had been adj
vanced by other wholesalers, the
price on it's oil would not be raised so
long as it's fair stock on hand lasts
and in no event except upon ten days
notice so that consumers may send in
orders to be filled at the old prices and
discounts. This house states that it
has fair supply in its tanks in this
country and a liberal supply in it's
tanks in Italy, but asks the trade to
cooperate with it in an effort to avoid
an advance in price by not ordering
more than is necessary for immediate
requirements.
The very great advance in prices of
drugs and medicines is receiving atten-
ton from investigators. The abuses
there appear to be of fragrant char
saeter. A Southern physician reports
that since the beginning of the Euro
pean war, Salvaron, a specific used in
the treatment of pellagra, a prevalent
disease in the South among poorer
classes, has increased from $3.50 to $40
Ter dose. 1t is claimed this can not
be attributed to natural causes. Prices
are undoubtedly advancing on a great
variety of articles at a rapid rate The
governments Investigations are fully
establishing this.

There is curiosity as to what the
antitrust laws of Congress will
amount to when they have been en-
acted. Conservative influences in the
Senate have had their way to a very
great degree and the Clayton anti
trust bill, drastic measure es II came
from the House has been deprived of
its teeth" Most of the Penalties have
been struck out by the Senate, al
though 1t does not follow that the
House will assent in conference to
these changes. Public attention has
been almost entirely diverted from this
measure. Few people have any idea
what the measure means, except, per-
haps, that Il prohibits interlocklng d.
rcctorates after a couple of years and
extends certain exemptions to labor
unions.
The purpose of the Senate seems to
be TO get through the shadow Of a new
antitrust law. which. in the campaign.
can be used AS an evidence that the
Democratic party has kept it's platform
pledges, The Federal Trades Commits
sion Dill has some strong features,
from the reformers' point of view, but
1t remains to be seen what shape it
will be In when it has come out of
conference. If the Railroad Securities
bill, passed by the House. is dropped
in the Senate, the whole antitrust
program might appear unworthy of all
the fuss and fury that has been ex
pended over II In the course of the last
three months. Republicans punched
many holes in this program during the
long debate thereon and have virtually
compelled the Democrats to back down
at many points.
II remains uncertain whether the 90
called conservation measures. over
which there has been an immense to-
do in the House will amount to much,
These bills are only through tho House
and will have no force as laws unless
approved by the Senate, But there is
no evidence yet that the Senate pro-
poses to pay any attention TO them.
Indeed the Senate has it's hands very
full for the present and, unless Con-
gress is TO stay in session all the au-
tumn, II is difficult to see how there
will be time for these Conservation
bills during the life of the present
Congress.
European War matters have been
very disconcerting for all these Demo-
cratic plans The President has had
very little time to give to them and
the branches of Congress have teiled
along indifferently whenever there was
any leisure. With so long residence
at Washington the more active legisla-
tors become stale and weary and the
work becomes a burden to them. In
terest out In the country in tnese
things Is at low ebh and that adds to
the difficulties of action.
Numerous nominations to federal
offices are being made these days by
President Wilson. Every few days a
good batch of postmasters' names
reaches the Senate. All the ripening
fruit on the tree Of patronage is be-
ing shaken off. In most cases the
Democratic Senate hastens to confirm,
which enables the faithful ones to pro-
coed expeditiousiy to their offices and
also their salaries. The Sonata has
