Senator John F. Shafrcth seems to
have been forgotten by many of the
papers Of the state who thrived mn-
der his two terms as governor of
Colorado, and he is fast fading from
their memory. Let it not be forgot
ten that Senator Shafroth since his
first day in the U. S. senate, has
fought for Colorado and her state
rights, regarding the governm ent
policy on convers alton, and today
John Shafroth forms Colorado's bull
wark against whom the nations
waves OF conversation are lashing
with indomitable fury. SLafroth is
certainly befriending the great and
growing west by combating the pow
erful bureaucratic influence built up
by Clifford PincEot under Republican
rule, to rob the people of the west
ern states of their just rights.

WOODROW WILSON AND 1916

The Washington correspondent oil
the Sun is authority for the assertion
that the opposition within the Demo
cratic party to the denomination OF
President Wilson appears to be crys-
Z tallizing around Champ Clark
This may be true but de doubt if
Champ Clark regards such support as
flatterins or important. We doubt
Still further whether he is ambitious
to play James G. Blaine to Woodrow
Wilson's Benjamin Harrison. The rok
would hardly appeal to him.
After all, who composes this opro-
sititn to the presidents renomina-
tion? Murphy and Tammany Hall, of
course. William r. Hearst, of course.
The Democratic job-mongers in the
United States senate, perhaps. South
ern Democrats Ike Cole Blease of
South Carolina, Vurdaman of Miss
issippi and Colquitt of Texas, whose
opposition is compliment to a real
Democrat. What do they all amount
to in the councils of the Democratic
party? How many delegates can they
send to the next Democratic national
convention?
Whether President Wilson is re-
nominated or not depends upon HIM
self. If he wants denomination,
the opposition will prove as weak
and futile as the opposition to Cleve-
land. If he refuses denomination,
the party will be beaten in advance
of the election, for he is the only
candidate it can possibly elect.
1t is not the president but the
Democratic party that is on trial. The
president has proved that he meas
ures up to the full qualifications of
his great office; but the Democratic
party has yet to prove that it is fit
to govern.
That factional fight should have
been started against the president
in congress may be taken as a mat
ter of course. That is a Democratic
way. Since Andrew .Jackson's Cay
no Democratic president has been
able to count on the locality of
Democrats in congress. No matter
what the policies of Democratic ad-
ministration may be. certain num-
ber of Democratic members of con-
gress. actuated by motives of greed
or revenge. can always be counted
on to try to cut the throat of a Demo.
cratic president
The revolt against President VIII
son within the Democratic party has
had the immediate effect of uniting
and stimulating the Republican opro
sition. 1t may be able to defeat the
administration program of legisla-
ton. 1t may disgust the country
totally with the Democratic party
and give the Republicans walkover
in 1916.
But one thing Is certain. II remr-
Gratis are incapable of giving honest
support to president like Woodrow
Wilson, he IS tie last Democratic
president that this political genera
tion Is likely to see. and the Demo-
cratic party win revert to its form
er position as mere party OF oppo-
eition.-New York World

FEED coTToNsEED TO HOGS.
Hoard's Dairyman Says No Uniformly
Successful Method of Feeding
Has Yet Been Found.

In response to the query What ex.
perience have you had in feedingl
cooked cottonseed to hogs and young
pigs?" Hoard's Dairyman makes thel
following reply:
We have had no experience in feeds
ing cooked cottonseed, nor do we re-
call any experimentation along this
line. No uniformly successful method
of feeding cottonseed or cottonseed
meal to swine has yet been found. The
poisonous effect of cottonseed meal is
said to be due to its content of pyro-
phosphoric acid, which is developed
when the seed is subjected to great
heat. Reasoning along this line we
would be inclined to believe that
cooked cottonseed would not prove z
safe feed for pigs. However, the
Louisiana station states that its ex-
periments do not uphold this theory,
and that the poisonous effect of the
cottonseed is due to some other factor
whose virulence is decreased by heat
ing. The seed is held to be more pois-
onous than the meal. 1t is probably
safe to feed cottonseed meal when it
does not constitute more than one
fifth to a quarter of the grain ration
and is fed at this rate for not more
than thirty days.
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1915-04-08
in RIGHT DIRECTION
Federal Trade Commission Has
Started Well.
Lona-Prevalent Form OF Business ny.
pocrisy Discountenanced Plain
Notice That the Law IL Hence
forth to BE Obeyed.

One form of business hypocrisy has
been discountenanced at the start by
the new federal trade commission.
1t will not make rulings in advance
on knotty questions submitted to 1t
by corporations. 1t will not open a
consultation room for those who are
reluctant to obey the antitrust laws.
It will issue no certificates of char
sacter based on hypothetical conditions.
Business that is mixed with more
or less politics has industriously
cultivated the idea that public reg
ulation has left it in hopeless doubt
as to right and wrong. In this
frame of mind it has asked the as
sistance of the commission, probably
not so much for the purpose of learn
ing what it should do as to find out
how far it can go without getting into
trouble.
The antitrust laws condemning con-
spiracy, monopoly and coercion are as
plain as any other laws. They run
against evils universally recognized.
Men who are tempted to commit the
offenses thus forbidden are not 1gnor-
ant and they do not fail to weigh the
responsibility. It is no more possible
in good morals to maintain q pubic
agency for the guidance of such peo-
pie than it is to expect the district
attorneys office to instruct the popu-
Mace generally upon the loopholes OF
the criminal law.
The claim that the Sherman and
Clayton acts are ambiguous as to their
main purpose is pretense designed
to encourage and excuse their non
enforcement. 1t is made plain almost
every day that jurors, prosecutors and
even judges are not keen in support
Of these statutes, but nobody who
reads and knows enough to do bust
ness can rightfully plead misunder.
standing or doubt as to their meaning.
II there were no law at all on the
subject, most men would know in their
hearts that the things prohibited are
wrong.
A disposition to get as close as pos
sible to the line between law and law
lessness, perhaps to overstep 1t, has
characterized too many of our bust
ness activities. There are many law
yers in private practice who do not
hesitate to give advice in such cases,
and some of them have been made
rich if not famous thereby.
The trade commission avoided Sc
rious pitfall when at the beginning
of it's career it refused to enter into
competition with the professors of the
art of skating on thin ice.
