The Return of Colonel Roosevelt.

Cincinnati Enquirer: The return of Colonel Roosevelt to
his native land after SO many months of absence is exciting great
interest throughout the United States.
Ills fellow citizens of every party will welcome him home as
one of the foremost men of the nation, and, however much many
OF them may differ from him as to policies and politics, he will
receive a heary and cordial greeting from his countrymen.
From the meager details received of his trip through the
W1lds OF South America, it is evident that the trek through Africa
was IN the nature Of a picnic as compared with the trials. tolls
and dangers OF this last visitation to the very heart of Nature.
The apostle of strenuosty found full use in the tropical wilds
Tor even his reserves of physical and mental strength, according
to the reports, but it is very probable that the ozone of the sea
will restore him to his usually fine condition before he reaches
New York.
His friends are main in the United States, and in the later
months they have not only grown in enthusiasm, but they have
increased IN numbers in the potential states of the Union.
His popularity has been increased by contrast.
1T IS not necessary to go into personalities or details; the
people OF the United States do not require them to be stated, as
the remarks Of the voters wherever they do congregate convince
government, not only for our own country, but in our relations
with others
The popularity Of Colonel Roosevelt has been established
through his welLrecognzed Americanism.
His courage and fearlessness In dealing with the problems
Of our international relations were never doubted by his fellow
citizens, and at no time in his years Of administration did they
feel that asserting the rights Of the republic as against the claims
of foreign nations would in the slightest degree cause hin 81 his
country any embarrassment.
Prnmefav orIte Of the people Of the United States as lie is,

More Promptness Required.

Pittsburgh Dispatch: The supreme court of the United
States holds the convictions OF Compers, Mitchell and Morrison
of contempt invalid simply on the statute of limitations. 1t adds
the comment that proceedings for contempt should be speedy,
and with the obvious justice OF that remark the requirement that
they should be begun within three years from the committal of
the offenses does not seem excessive.
The decision as summarized in the news reports does not
rule upon the question of the boycott against the Bucks Stove
and Range company, or any of the other labor issues in the case.
1T simply utilities the whole proceedings because they ignored
the statute of limitations.
If this is a disappointment to any man or set of men, they
must seek their remedy by inspiring in trial courts a promptitude
TO at least the degree indicated by the requirements of the law.

Keeping Accounts on the Farm.


Inter Ocean: In these days of high cost of living it seems to
the consumer as if the farmers must all be on the high road to
"eaiI", Il not already mlnionaires. The farmer, on the other
hand, is complaining that he gets small prices for his products,
declaring that he is barely able to live and actually forming all
softs u combinations in an endeavor to raise prices.
Without going into the question of farmers profits, it may
y Saieis saia that many farmers have only the vaguest idea OF
the actual results of their farming operations IS expressed in dol
ars and cents. They keep no accounts of cost. The situation
is further complicated by the fact that the farm is not only a
business but a home. Thus a farmer may make a considerable
pr0ht on his farming operations and still fall behind steadily
because of his high personal and living expenses. Another may
not make more than 2 per cent on his investment and yet be get
ting ahead.
The time is rapidly coming when all this will have to be
changed and the successful farmer must keep a complete system
OF farm records. The purpose of keeping these farm records is
to determine the cost, income and profit of each individual en-
terprise in which the farmer is engaged; to set forth the govern
ing factors of these; to exhibit the efficiency in the management
and use OF man labor, horse labor and farm machinery; to show
what the cost of living amounts to, and to fit these and all other
branches of farm industry into a complete, comprehensive whole
that shall show every detail of the farm organization and oper-
alton.
In all cases, actual farm values should consistently be used
and the actual facts ascertained. If the crop yields are over
estimated or overvaued to make the crops show up well; if they
are underestimate and undervaued when fed to live stock in
order to show profits; if manure is credited to the live stock and
never charged to the crops, why-the farmer is only fooing him
self and he gets distorted and misleading results. Showing every
enterprise as it is, with conservatism in placing values, is the
only safe road to true results.
For example, a farmer ought to keep an account with every
COW In order to know whether he can afford to keep the animal.
Many a farmer keeps COWS that are a loss to him instead of a
profit.
In short, the keeping Of farm cost accounts requires thought
and painstaking attention, but is well worth it to the farmer who
wishes to know just what he is doing. Beef is a finished product:
so also are corn, oats and hay. The production of each of these
is a separate, distinct farm enterprise, and the farmer needs to
know the relative profit Or loss from each independent of the
others. When honestly done farm cost accounting furnishes a
direct and safe basis on which to work out a more profitable bust
ness management for the farm.
In short, facts are just as valuable on the farm Is anywhere
else. With facts intelligent action is possible. And hard work
is a poor substitute for intelligent action. "

NEWSPAPER COMMENT.
Heroes Shining Example.

Baltimore News: If their country had asked it of them
there would have been thousands of Americans glad to give their
lives like the few whose patriotic deaths are being honored today
by the nation. But the deeds of those who offered themselves
and were taken are not to be measured by the mere willingness
of the rest to respond as they responded, to be borne home on
their honorable biers, with all their countrymen mourning but
proud, Others would have done their part these men did theirs.
Taps sound for the bodies of those sailors and marines at the
grave. Their memory stays with us. After us their example
will shine.

Peace Without Any Friendship.

President Wilson, in connection with the members of the
senate committee on foreign relations, recently directed attention
to a state of affairs that is without a parallel in our history. AL
though nominally at peace with all the world, we have conducted
ourselves so that most of the great countries of the world are in
a state of serious irritation against us.
By claiming the free use of the Panama canal for our coast
ing trade, we have offended not only Great Britain, who of all
nations should be most firmly our friend, but also every other
maritime power of Europe. These nations regard that provision
of our existing laws as a violation not merely Of good faith, but
of a definite contract in the HayPauncefote treaty,-an opinion
that thousands of Americans share. In addition, congress came
near including in the tariff a provision that foreign merchants
should open their books to the inspection Of American officers.
Moreover, although we have posed as the leading advocate
of the universal arbitration Of international disputes, we virtually
decline to refer the question of canal tolls to arbitration, and have
positively refused to submit to an impartial tribunal the claim of
Colombia to compensation for the wrong she thinks she suffered
at our hands when Panama set herself up as an independent re-
public.
All the Central and South American peoples are suspicious
sswatchful waiting, to see what we are going to do about The
claim OF Colombia, and what is to be the end of our Mexican
policy. The leading nations, Argentina, Brazil, and Chile, are
almost angrily resenting the idea that we can ever apply the
principle Of the Monroe Doctrine to them. AS to our relations to
Mexico, they could not be worse, unless we we're actually at war.
Again, who can wonder that Japan is hostileg In al ease
where she thinks herself insulted, why should she accept as an
excuse for our failure as a nation to act, that the general govern
ment has no jurisdiction over . sovereign statea
We have offended Russia, by peremptorily terminating d
treaty because Russia would not amend her national policy I'd

Need Of World Peace.

81. Paul Dispatch: The advocates of world peace and world
disarmament have never gone to the length of pleading for entire
disarning of the nations, but have for many years argued for the
delsmtation oil armies and ravies to the point where, combined
in an International army and an international navy, they would
yet be big enough TO maintain peace and order over the CONT
nents and the high seas. How useful such an army and such a
navy would be is illustrated by the present Mexican crisis. There
lis no difference Of opinion among the great powers as to the cry
ing need in the Southern republic for some quick, vigorous ac-
ton that would put an end to the useless, bloody strife. If there
fore they had all contributed their quota to an international
navy and marine force and had agreed upon a forward policy in
settling the Mexican anarchy, the United States might have been
spared the awful responsibility of pacifying Mexico through her
own efforts alone. The day is coming when navies will be COM
bIned and the armies will be Joined in a system of international
police to do precisely the kind Of work now devolving on the
United States, and civilization will then have advanced another
step forward.
