WHO DRINKS MUST CO."
This is the title of an article in a
recent number of the Technical
World" a magazine devoted to me-
chanics. We quote a few para
graphs:
Drinking will now spell prompt dis

first rank. Sears, Roebuck & Com
pany forbid employees entering a sa-
loon at any hour of the day within a
mile of their plant in any direction.
Last spring a l~ocal-option election
was held in the dry town of Three
Rivers, Mich. The big industry of
the town is the Sheffield Car works.
The management of these works is
sued a circular letter to the many
thousand workmen advising them that
if they signed wet petitions they
would by that act be placing them
selves in opposition to the interests
of the company.
Eyes, and only a few months ago
the great steel works at Homestead,
Pa, employing $4,000 men, decreed
that not only would drinking be pro-
hibited during working hours, but that
even the slightest intemperance while
off duty would be cause for immedi.
ate discharge.
This magazine could be crammed
to the covers with similar instances
of the strong front industry has as.

~ecutives of industry is pretty well
summed up in the pointed statement

ONLY HOPE OF LIQUOR MEN.

advertising is now the only hope
of the liquor business" said Mr.. James
Schermerhorn, editor of the Detroit
Times, in a public address. 1.-THE vets

tation of life running beyond ten
years."
The Times threw out liquor ads, he
said, because it did not wish to be a
selling and distributing agency OF
breweries and ~distilleries, or a solicit
tor for them in territory that has out.
lawed their business.

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
CITY OFFICIAL PAPER.
THOSE REMARKS TO ENGLAND.

We venture the prediction that the formal pro-
+test presented last week by the government of the
United States to the government OF England-a
document finely touched by the presidents own
remarkable diction-wl go down in history
one Of the greatest Of state papers, stating
.cincty pointedly and emphaticaly as it does the
grounds for grievance and yet with this direct
ness carrying most evident spirit of friendliness
and confidence that the matters under discussion
will be satisfactorily remeded and that right
soon. It's full purport cannot be gathered IN
casual reading; its finesse comes through study.
On the face of it, it appears to be merely direct
statement of situation in the true, straghtfor-
ward American style; in the heart Of it is to be
found wealth of study, mine of careful prepa-
ration and an abundance of frankness clothed with
n dominant note of insistence.
What may expect England answer to be?
Our guess is that will virtually acquiesce in this
nations requests, but it will not be made to
appear so, for England, too has adroit diploma
fists, fine statesmen and capable dictionists. We
make that guess not only because the protest was
based the identical doctrine England herself
has advocated and enforced in previous wars, but
upon something further which is apt to have
almost equal weight: England desires and feels
she must have in her present struggle, the friend
ship of this nation. 1t is only guess, of courses
there can be nothing else until England's answer
is received
Some there have whispered that England
might officially tell us to go to-blazes-and that
we therefore might be drawn into this great Euro
pean struggle out Of the necessity Of protecting
our commerce at sea. To us such whispers are but
the merest bosh - the jngoists, like the poor are
always with us. From what little we know of the
situation we judge that England has everything
to lose and nothing to gain by such course, and
England statesmen are not fools.

LUKE McLUKE SAYS. :.

|
You may have noticed that re.
form leader can't get his reforming
apparatus into running order until
his followers oil the works with a
big bank roll.
The fellows who haven't earned a
dime or done a lick of work in the
last 10 years are now very busy
standing around the saloons debating
the probable effect of European
war on business and prices in this
country.
If the spectacle of a girl losing
something is shocking sight, most
men enjoy being shocked.
A man gets mad all over if he
can't get seat in the front row in a
theater. And he gets mad all over if
the usher leads him to the front pew
when he goes to church.
After you get to know some good
looking women they are not nearly
as good-looking as you thought they
were.
If mans bank account is all right
he thinks the government is.
The old-fashioned man who used
to use his money to feather his nest
now has a son who uses his money to
color his nose.
If he helps her off with her coat
when they enter theater and holds
it for her during the show they are
single. If she hauls her own coat off
and hangs it on the back of the chair
they are married.
1t would help some if we had more
soft spots in our hearts and fewer
soft spots in our heads.

"RASSLIN' I" WITH HIGHER EDUCATION. -

One thing seems certain nova big issue of
this coming legislature, an issue that it is not at
all unlikely may grow to be the most important
one of the session, overshadowing all the Others
is this question of the cost of higher education in
this state, brought to focus by the University of
Washingtons campaign for larger building APP
preparations The campaign has certainly aroused
a lot of talk and lot of thought as was stated
last week, and it apparently has also produced in
the minds of some members of the legislature a
determination to make radical changes in the
method of financing and managing the states edu-
cational institutions.
1t must not be overlooked that the University
and the other institutions too with their hundreds
OF graduates and hundreds of students can exert
a formidable influence and muster an influential
lobby and it is not to be doubted they will fully
arouse their forces and bring every possible pres
sure to bear before the issue is settled IT is to
be no quiet sailing. in other words rather twill
be ''rassle and tassle" from start to finish
Our 'hunch is that when the smoke is cleared
away, tuition fee will have been adopted as one
means of financing the institutions fee of twenty
five or fifty dollars year. and it strikes us that
this is one of the most sensible suggestions that

SIX MILLION MEN-SEVEN BILLION
DOLLARS.

Figures of course if we believe everything we
are told, are always cold, always dispassionate,
without one CLEAN Of sentiment Repeat, then,
this one phrase several times-''siX million men,
seven billion dollars repeat it until it gets
little sing song-y,' until you grasp its full
import to the extent that the human mind can
realize-fnd you no sentiment in it?
Six million men, killed and wounded and miss

o. 8. SENATORS AT $4,000 PER.

There s quite commentary on the direct cleo
ton Of United States senators-mind you we are
not opposing or objecting to that great reform
to be found in the dispatch from the national cap
ital the other day which said that the senatorial
candidates Of all parties in thirty states spent
very close to half million dollars in the Novem-
Der campaigns according to their sworn state
ments to the secretary of the senate.
Assuming there We're three candidates in each
state the average cost of the election to each of
them was more than $4,000 Only thirty-one were
elected, of course, which makes the average total
cost of one United States senator from each of
these states mere matter Of sixteen thousand
dollars
There's the commentary

The financial officials and bankers of all the
South American nations have been invited by
Secretary McAdoo to attend conference at
Washington with American bankers to determine
the means of establishing financial and credit re

them of the decentralization into which they were
plunged by the war; all of their financial relations
heretofore having been with Europe, and will at
the same time fix basis upon which the manufac-
turers of the United States can advantageously

applied to the newspapers of this state. The ex-
