OF counselors, the moral and econo-
mic questions involved in a martial
conquest. the place Of the family in
the social order. these and many
other problems. political, social,
economic, are al here found. The
Bible describes one Of tho earlier
experiments in communism. It has
instances Of the dealing Of society
with the criminal and the outlaw, as
seen in Cain and Judas. It has many
examples. and one Of supreme sig
nificance. Of the use of that most
moving force in the uplift of So
ciety. the force Of love. 1t contains
the concluding and consummate pic
ture of the perfection of the race,
its work done. its burdens lifted, its
ideals realized.
The Bible is not n text book In
politics, or economies. or sociology;
but it Is a volume to which every
teacher Of future statesmen, or fu-
ture economists. or future sociolog-
lists does necessarily refer his STU
dents.

MR.. M'CUMDER'S FIGHT.

Senator McCumber is doing a pub
!ic service by insisting that the Sem
ate shall at least record a vote on
his bill for the standardization and
Federal control of the business of
grading grains. This is a matter
OF very great moment to the agricul-
tural interests of the whole country.
1t seems that many Eastern people
imagine this legislation does not
affect this section; but they could
hardly indulge greater error. The
great grain-growing States of the
West have to some extent remedied
the evils of old grading methods,
through State laws; but in the East
and South almost nothing worth
while has been accomplished in this
direction.
There is wonderment at the de-
cadence of agriculture in the East;
at the fact that with the finest mar
kets right at it's door, the Eastern
farm will not prosper as will the
Western farm. One important rea-
son is that in the West, where agri-
culture is the leading occupation.
agriculture gets the attention of law
makers, railroad commissions and
the like; in the East, agriculture is
too little considered.
In such a matter as the grading
and inspection of grains. cotton and
the like, it is necessary to have Fed
eral legislation if it is to be effective
legislation. Senator McCumber has
been for a decade fighting for his
standardization measure. The De-
partment of Agriculture has long
worked on the problem of establish
ing standards and methods of grad
ing, and has finished that work.
There is no longer excuse for delay
ing the legislation itself. There is
every reason why it should pass.
So long as it is possible to skin
the farmer, he will be skinned. ~

Madison, Wis. June 20. Organization
of peoples machines" to combat the old
political machines was advocated by Miss
Margaret Wilson, daughter of the presi-
dent, who arrived here to attend the
preliminary conference on civic secre-
taryship, which began last night.
IF we do not want officeholders whom
we elect to be under obligations to pc.
litieal machines not of our making, we
must make our own machines machines
of democracy--and demand their allie
glance to the people," said Miss Wilson.
Conservation and organization of the
forces of democracy is the great work
the American people have before them.
The school buildings are natural cen.
tiers where people can meet and coneen-
trate their forces. Not only should the
schoohouses be provided free Of charge
for public meetings, but civic secre-
tary should be furnished just as secre.
taries are furnished meetings of city
councils"

Wilson were Miss Zona Gale, the writer;

NEW SUGAR LOBBY
WORRIES CONGRESS
The Refners Oppose Growers Attempt
to Repeal the "Free Sugar"

Washington. June pa new out.
break of lobbying in Congress, with
American sugar importers pitted against
sugar cane growers, was indicated yes
terday by flood of circular letters re-
ceived by congressman.
Recent agitation OF cane growers for
repeal OF the "free sugar" clause of the
Wilson Underwood tariff law is believed
to have started reprisals from the re-
finers. The growers declare that the
treasury deficit feared by Secretary Nc
Adoo should cause reimposition OF sugar
duties-and incidentally protect them
from foreign competition.
F. c. Lowry, sales manager for the
Federal Sugar Refining company, sent
circular letters broadcast here yester-
day. commencing the results of reduced
sugar tariffs. That the Is per cent tar
iff cut already in effect has caused
marked reduction in retail sugar prices
to consumers was asserted by Lowry,
who was called as a witness in the Sem
ate lobby investigation. His letters
asserted that, after May, 1915, when all
duty is taken off sugar, a saving of Sl0,
100000 year to consumers will result.

NELSON TRAGEDY
IN 232 LETTERS
Correspondence Between the Great Sailor
and Wife to Go Under the
Hammer.

London, June l9-At Christie's on
July Ia there will be sold remarka BILE
collection of 232 letters written by Mel
son to Lady Nelson from August, 1885,
when she was the widow of DIR. Nisbet,
to November 6, 1900, when Nelson's wife
left him in consequence of his infatua-
ton for Lady Hamilton. Most of the
letters have not been published and are
unknown to Nelson's biographers.
On the death of Lady Nelson the col
lection passed to her cousin, Mrs. Frank
lyn. one of whose descendants, A. j.
Webbe, has sent them to Christie's.
The letters abound with references to
Lady Hamilton, especially after the bat
tie of Aboukir, when Emma" had him
really in thrall, and it was his letter
describing Lady Hamiton's preparations
for celebrating his birthday on his ar
rival at Naples that was the beginning
of the end
At the close of 1900 Lady Nelson left
her husband, saying: Il am sick of hear
ing of Dear Lady Hamilton and am re-
solved that you shall either give up her
or me-"
The collection also contains three let
ters from Lady Nelson, showing that
she attempted reconciliation. The last
letter was sent back to her with the en-
yelope briefly marked; "0pened in mis-
take by Lord n, but not read"
