No Rural Credit Legislation.

Among the promised and important
measures that have been indefinitely
postponed by congress and the admin
ization. 1t will be recalled that the
president issued a direct statement
once, assuring the farmers that this
egislation, which could not be made
part of the currency act, would have
the right of way after the safe pas
sage of that act.
The disappointed farmers now hear
that the question proved to be terri
bly, knotty; that no definite scheme
has been worked out; that the absorp-
ton of the members of congress in
politics renders early agreement i'm
possible. and that the dropping of the
proposed legislation is a regrettable
but unavoidable necessity.
Here we have another Illustration
of the slovenly and inefficient ways of
congress. Rural credit legislation is
no simple thing. to be sure; but was
not this known when congress was
called together? Europe has rural
credit legislation, and, while our con-
ditions are different. it is absurd to
contend that European laws and ex-
perience contain no guidance whatever
for us. Again. we are not without
bankers. financiers, students of rural
economy and life, intelligent heads
OF farmers organizations who can give
committees of congress valuable aid in
framing or improving rural credit
measure. Has much aid been sought?
As to definite or perfect schemes.
what legislation starts with such ?
Was the new banking act born perfect?
It Is perfect now? Is not all legisla-
ton crude and initiative at first?
The fiasco in regard to rural credit
legislation is a reproach to and re-
Election on congressional methods.
Politics, inefficiency. and timidity ex-
plain the fiasco without excusing 1t.

Apples are being loaded this week
about half and half. bulk and boxes.
The price paid at the associations
ranges from 40c to 60c per 100 pounds
bulk, and from soc to 75c per box
packed. 1t costs 2oc per box to de-
liver apples in boxes, and Is per cent
commission on the sales. The prices
being paid in bulk is net cash on de-
livery, so that fifty cents hundred
for the apples in bulk is better than
would be fifty cents a box. The mar
ket price is too low. however, for a
profit over the cost of production. and
it is to be hoped that some improve
ment may soon be shown.

VICTORY WITH ADMINISTRATION.

HE amendment to the free tolls
 repeal bill which becomes a law
 4 today adds nothing vital to the measure. The United States would have all the rights that she has under the .Pauncefote treaty to take fur ther action in the matter of exempt ing ships of her citizens from the pay ment of tolls without the amendment as we'll as she has with it. The most that can be said for the amendment is that it is notice to the world that Con- gress has not passed upon the mean ing of the treaty. However, that is in accordance with the position taken by the President in the beginning. He said that the question was bigger and broader than treaty construction, and that the bill should be passed without reference to what the rights of the United States might be. The amend ment was adopted by the friends of the measure as compensation to those Senators who had supported free tolls and desired something to show for ap- parent lack of consistency. The op- ponents of the measure characterized the amendment as a "face-saving' proposition.
 The fact is the administration has won another legislative victory by about the majority that it claimed all the time. The vote has asa;u demon strated that President Wilson is in command of the ship of state. This fact will be further exemplfed within a few weeks when the antitrust bills become laws, and few more Alaska measures are passed. Then Congress will adjourn. and the issues for the mid.term Congressional election will be joined and the battle fought out on the record of accomplishment by Pres ident Wilson and those of whom he is the undisputed leader.
