Attorney Remington argued for the
lawyers petitioning for allowances.
He admitted the sum of $500 asked
by himself and Mr.. Furst was mere

 John Skelton Williams is both :,
 '".rker md practical railroad man L. 1900 he organized the Seaboard line, and in doing so had a desperate fight with men high in the financial world, among other with Thomas Fortune Ryan. in which fight he was for a time '"' Tn 1908. however. he got
 lr serious financial difiiculties while pu noting a new railroad between Att lanta and Birmingham.
 As result. in order to protect those who had invested with him in the new enterprise. he was forced to let go his control of the seaboard. which he had built up. and Ryan and his associates secured control. Within four or i've years they froxe Williams out completely. They thought then. and they continued so to think until his recent appointment as comptroller of the currency. an ofIice the import ance of which has been enormously magnified by the new banking and currency bill. that Williams was out of the way for good. and would not longer be factor to be reclsoned with il any of their financial operations.
 It is hardly to be expected that some eminent nnanciers who had long fought against and been fought by Williams, should look with any keen amount of pleasure upon his ap- pointment to the position. with its new and enlarged powers. This was the reason for the long fight waged to prevent his confirmation. Those who know Williams best however. are thoroughly convinced that nothing which has happened in the past will prevent his filling his new position with fairness. justice and magnani- mity, and that no remembrances of his old battles will influence his con- duct of his ofiace.

An almost immediate effect of the passage of the Underwood tariff bill was the closing in Eastern Canada ol fcrty cheese factories, as Q result of the demand from the United States foi whole milk and cream. Had the literal reciprocity arrangement been approved by ths people cheese and butter as well as milk and cream would have entered the United States duty free. But that offer was refused. under the advice of the big interests. and shortly afterwards the Americans abolished their tariff on milk and cream while retaining a duty on cheese and butter.
 The result is that milk and cream which would otherwise have been made into cheese and butter in Ca Hudian factories and dairies for the American market, is now crossing the border in the raw state and by re- jccting reciprocity We are losing the rioflt of converting the raw material fl to finished product.
 Such facts as this are attracting widespread attention and the Ontario farmers are moro and more inclined to doubt their wisdom in rejecting MT. Fielding's measure. It is believed irdccd that if the issue were to come before the people now quite differ ,nt decision would be rendered to flat of 1911. It Is questionable. of course, whether the United States would now agree to such an arrange mont as that in which President Taft acquisccd. The entire fight would be raised. still the reciprocity act is yet or the statute books of the United States and the policy 50 far pursued by tho Wilson administration has been decidedly in favor of freer trade Vancouver Sun.

The citizens of Fairfax county
 Virginia. propose to appeal to the
 courts to secure the return to that county. from the great collection of curios accumulated by the late J. Pierpont Morgan. of the will of Mar tha Washington. This will was cut from the records of the county by q federal soldier during the civil war. It probably passed through many hands before 1t reached its final resting place iE the Morgan collection. The pres ent head of the Morgan house. to whom an appeal was made to restore the relic. fiatiy refused to return it.
 The people of Virginia have often been accused of lack of appreciation O, the great men whom that state furnished to the public service. and ot want of care or reverence for their relies. For one example, Montecello tho estate of Thomas Jefferson, was permitted to pass into the possession

NOME. ALASKA, MARCH s1, 1914

President Wilson's announcement that he would veto tho postoffice appro- pstatton bill. if 1t came to him with the provision now in it taking the as- sistant postmasters of the country frvm under the protection of the vicii service rules, has had apparently no effect upon the spoilsmen of his par " in congress. Neither has the state- ment made to the postofiice commit lee by Postmaster General Burleson u. the effect that the position of as- s,stant postmaster requires practicai knowledge and efficiency in postofIicc, work and that the great majority oi the present holders of such positions won them fairly on tests of efficiency and administrative ability.
 Representative Moon. of Tennessee. chairman of the house committee oh pcstofflces. threw down the challenge t, the president to make good his threat to veto the bill. in 8 remarkable speech delivered the other day. in which he stoutly defended a return to the spoils system and declined tc amend the bill in accordance with tho presidents wishes.
 In the course of his speech he de- manded that the whole diplomatic corps be eliminated. saying: "It is this gang of political reprobates and so- cicty degenerates we ought to wipe out of existence"
 He went on from this to his chal- lsngs to the president: Suppose the president does veto this bill. should cor gress pass the section. He but exercises his constitutional perroga- tivss and congress cannot complain It can only override the veto. if 1t will by . two-thirds vote. and he cannot complain if congress do that" He w0nt on to say that the views of the py esident and the postmaster general certainly will not control me in my vote. nor will 1t control this commit tee in the pres ssntation and discussion of . question which believe to be vital"
 It remains to be seen whether the pr esidsnt or the democratic spoilsmcn will succeed in securing the majority vcte when the question comes on of eliminating this provision. It is the first serious issue drawn between the president and congress since that body convened.

THE ADVANCE OF COOPERATION.

The cooperative principle has per hans made as much advance in the past year as it did previously in our entire economic history. Last winter the granges spent large part C. their time discussing this subject. This summer will see many co-opera- tive experiments tried out.
 1t is not the farmers only who arc trying to cooperate. There is oae group of 150 retail stores, mostly ill Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Da- kotas, that is giving the old time mid dle man something to think about.
 It was long said that the American housewife would not buy at any single store, even if her husband was a shareholder there. Shopping was her favorite sport and diversion. She liked to go aroun>. and see the vari- ous assortsments.
 Perhaps one reason why 50 maay cooperative stores used to fail was that they never showed any aggres- sive spirit. The cooperative store, like any other. must advertise, and tell the general public what it has to offer. Else it will not merely lose the interest of the general public but it's own shareholders will lose faith in it.
 Wasteful methods of distribution have been reproach to American enterprise. The farmer would haul d load of handsome apples to the rail way. and dump them into the cars at a dollar a barrel, about a tenth of a cent apiece. Not many miles away1the townsman would be paying for apples in small quantities at the rate of two to five cents each
 Or the farmer would be hauling lettuce to the city and selling it for five cents crate (eighteen heads) Meanwhile many households would be paying , to s cents d head for their lettuce.
 In Great Britain the cooperative societies have 3,00O.000 members, and plenty of families pay their rent out of their rebate checks. Speadthrift Uncle Sam has come to the point where he must study these small economies.

WHO GETS THE PROFIT?

Senator Gore, chairman of the sen ate committee on agriculture, says that out of farm produce that retails annually for $l3.000,0000O0 farmers get $6,000 0000,0 ,000, the railroads get So00,000,000 and the middlcmcn and the retails get the rest. The Lehigh Valley Railroad company has ccpiled figures showing how much the pro ducer, the middlemaa. tbe railroads and the retailer gets out of each dol lar paid by the ultimate consumer of the food products that go to make up the ordinary grocery bill. A railroad statlstlclan has figured out that it Will cost the average household only lo cents year more for it's food if thc railroads arc given the per cent Increase in freight rates they ask. It IS plain from this that tue high cost or living is not mainly due to the cost of transportation by the rail. roads
 It is interesting to examine the figures relative 10 the division of the proceeds from the sale of food prod ucts, the cost to the ultimate con- sumer being made the basis. The rood products taken are: Eggs, but ter, milk, rice, potatoes. dressed poultry, onions, oranges, canned peas, dried pruncs dried apples, dried aprocots. dried beans. canned salmon sugar and tea.
 On all these food products it is sho"n that the farmer gets an aver. age or 90 l-2 per cent, the railroads Der Geat aud the middlemau and re. tallers II l-2 per cent of what th, consumer pays.
 The producer of dressed poultr, gets b cents out of the consumer's dollar, the middleman gets F cents the railroads get 1-4 cents and th, retailer gets 10 3-i cents. This is tb, lood product for which the producer esis' the 'isghest per centage of ytli, price paid by the consumer.
 The onion grower gets the small est part of the consumers dollar. H,

 IS. Verify l say unto you, Whatso- ever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
 19. Again I say unto Wou, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they sail ask it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven 20. For where two or three are gathere together in my name there am l in the midst of them. 21. Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against mo, and forgive him? ? till seven times?
 22. Jesus saith unto him, say not unto thee, Until seven times: but Until seventy times seven.
 23. Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto certain king, which would take account of his servants.
 A. And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which Owed him ten thousand talents
 70. But foraSmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made
 26. The servant therefore fell down, and worshipEcd him, saying. Lord, have patience with mo, and will pay thee all.
 27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and looscd him, and forgave him the debt.
 2S. But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellow servants. which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Fay me that thou owcst.
 29. And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and l will pay thee all.
 30. And he would not but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt
 31. So when his felloWscryants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.
 32, Then his lord, after tsat he mad called him. said unto him, o thou wicked servant, l forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
 33. Shouldest not tho ualso have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as had pity on thee? ....-
 54. And his lord was wroih, and delivered him to the tormentors, till nc should pay all that was due unto him.
 3o. So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
