woman is when she's going to inf1ict Crismus gifts and advice on a feller. So I humored her. l wore the hrst pair of wool socks, and l stuffed cot ton in my ears the way she demanded.
 Well, after I'd put them socks on, l was afraid to change to a lighter weight, lest I catch cold and have more pains and earaches. So on change morning-we have regular days for changing hollers out, Where is my other wool socks?' And she answers. I put 'em on your dres- ser An | come back They aint here' And she called me liar with out saving so as women do. Then she came in and hunted, just to prove 1t.
 Well, I won't go into the painful story of the fight that near disrupted our scrappy home that morning. sui flee it to say that later in the day them socks was discovered in the place that we should have at least suspected.
 They had been on the dresser all the time, and l had used 'em. But my wife had washed that second pair and they had shrunk. And l thought they were the cotton pluggets-and all the time we were hunting for em 1 was wearing 'em in my ears!

The Lynching sRetsord.
Cleveland Plain Dealer }

For years Booker T. Washington has kept a record of lynchings in the United States In 1914 he finds the number fell to the lowest point since he began There were fifty-two per sons lynched in the United States, cf whom fOrtN-ninc were ColOred. Of fht, total A per cent. of the lynch ings were in the two states of Mis- sissippi and Louisiana.
 This pre-emnence is an old story for Mississippi, but a new one for Louisiana. In 1913 the former state was guilty of more of these offenses than any other, which Georgia came second.
 It is further interesting to note that of the fifty-two lawless executions recorded, only seven were of men ac- cuscd of crimes against kind. On the other hand, the Alabama edu- cator calls attention to the fact that the figures show "an incrca sing ten dency to lynch for any cause, how ever trivial"
 In other words, the old pretense upon which lynchcrs formerly tried to excuse their activity has been largely abandoned by the new gem eration of lynchers. These latter day criminals are franker; their mad ness ignores logic. They slay be- cause they like to slay.

and ammunition, just as our bankers had perfect right to disregard Pres ldent Wilson's wishes and make loans to belligerent states. We are not dis cuss1ng whether any nation could properly demand that such exports cease. Can anyone deny that the manufacturers would have a right to cease to manufacture and sell to bel ligerents as the bankers declined to make loans? Can anyone deny that if public opinion demands it we can by legislation forbid the export of arms and ammunition as congress au- thorized the president to forbid such exports to Mexico? Just as we had right to repeal the Panama canal tolls act, because it seemed to us bet ter to err, if at all, on the side of ir- terpretlng our agreements to our own disadvantage rather than to run the risk of failing to keep them, so it is always open to us to do more than the letter of, international law requires on the side of neutrality and peace
 The simple and appalling considera- ion which should control our dcct- sion is that if the cannon, armor plate, copper, powder, motor cars and gasoline with which the war is car rled on, are supplied by this country, we are responsible for it's continuance We might easily find ourselves liter ally more responsible for it than any nation engaged on the battlefield. If American capital comes to have a large stake in the war, inevitably the American conscience will be scared American eyes blinded, American in- fluence for peace paralyzed Ameri- can judgment on the issues discredit- ed, American neutrality byword American prayers for peace, q bla.;- nFpnlV

America and Peace.


(Edward T. Devine in the Survey.)
 First of all, this is no time for such military and naval programs, in this neutral peace-loving country, will make general disarmament and a league for peace more difficult after the war ends. President Wilson Is a wiser, leader than the generals and editors and ex-cabinet officers in the national security league. Can 1t be that the lea guers kept sober counten- ances when one of the generals laid it down that one of the most important things that can be provided for at Washington is to teach our school and college students to shoot? Eff clency in the army and Tn the navy IS certainly essential; and If the cab met officers and military chiefs need prodding, or if the appropriation committees need argum tents, no one can object to the process. But, th3 one thing needful is that we should proceed moderately in any such strength ening of the national defense, eliminating every aspect of belligerent aggression. The removal of every Just or even plausible cause for of- fense in every international relation, is consid derably more important just now than increasing military estab- lishments. Teaching sch ool and col lege boys to understand and apprecI- ate Mexicans, Canadians, Japanese, South Am ericans and Germans is considerably moro important than teaching them to shoot. Teaching them to respect the cights, the views, and even the psychology, of others will bear a, better harvest than any in structlon in military tactics.
 Second, we should empower the na- tional government to make good it's international obligations and agree ments. The supreme court has in- terpreted the constitution in such a way that to do this may now require a constitutional amendment. But NO have learned that amendment of tho constitution, when public opinion de- mands it, is mparatively easy. No mob in New Orleans. no legislature in California. no business interest in New York, should be able to om- broil the nation in war against the will of the nation; and that will should be consistently good will, an earnest desire for peace, for the inter change of genuine services, for mu- tual support by each people of the best interests. the higher life, the true civilization of all it's neighbors.
 Third. we should cease to export munitions of war. It is not a question of what we have a right 10 do as ncu- trals under international law No doubt Jefferson believed that we had perfect legal right to export guns

GOVERNOR SILENT ON PIE
 SONAL TAX
PER-

It is being remarked that Cover say in his inaugural message in ref erence to the personal tax, about which Professor Fisher had so much to say during the last campaign. His silence, however, will not necessarily prevent the introduction of measures to wipe it off the statute books if such action is desired It is un- popular in some places and presum- ably there are a great many who are obliged to pay it who do not like to do so, but it does not follow that it will be repealed because of that feel ing
 The question in it's broadest sense permits of an interesting discussion. Professor Fisher has claimed that it is an unfair and an unjust tax. The Bridgeport Farmer takes practically the same view, but there is no one who has yet offered a suitable sub stitute for it as a revenue producer TOT city. MunlC1paI expenses have increased compared to what they used to be; in many places the revenue is insufficient to meet the ordinary needs of the community and just why per son can reasonably refuse to pay a tax of $2 year has never been very clearly explained. More is being done for the individual now than say twenty-five years ago. The city fur nishes books and other supplies for school children free; the manner of education has improved; all those things cost money and the bills must be met by taxation in which all do not pay an equal share. The personal tax is not levied to meet this ex- pense, however, but rather to meet the cost of maintaining the military, the balance to go into the local treas ury. It is this balance that helps a community to meet the remainder of it's debts If the tax is abolished if will mean that the loss in revenue must be met in some other way, prob ably by an increased tax rate. good many people would object to that.

SAY PENROSE SPENT A MILLION.

SAY PENROSE SPENT A MILLION.
 It appears that Jeremiah Donovan is not the only member of congress who is to make fuss over the elec- tion expenses of his opponent. Con- gressman Palmer of Pennsylvania has committee on privileges and elections that Senator Boise Penrose spent a million dollars in the last campaign to secure his election. He alleges that bribery was common in many parts of the state and that men who were never knowon to have money before exhibited large rolls of bills on election day. MT. Palmer states that the various committees report ed as having received and disbursed 900 and the expenditures in six ty-seven counties will add $335,000 more to it, so that he claims that there was a fund of over three quar- ters of a million dollars raised for Penrose's election, all of which is in NIc1dClo oI I1lc LtdSIdl COIIupL pl ohS- tices act.
 It is not uncommon to hear of large expenditures of money for polit- ical purposes and whether they are true or not they will continue un- til the state takes a hand at the man. agement of elections and operates them in such a manner that it will be impossible for a man to expend such a large sum in order to be elect ed to 8 public office. It Is alleged that one branch of business spent q large amount to help in the election of Penrose, but while all the allegations may not be in accordance with the facts there probably is enough foundation for the claim that large sum was unnecessarily expended in the campaign. The amount specified is so great that it is easy to under stand how neither MT. Pinchot nor MT. Palmer, opponents of Penrose, had any show against him. Money is surely powerful influence in pol itics.

The Irish Winter.
(Boston Herald. )

To us here in New England it is a perpetual source of wonder that Great Britain and Ireland, which are in the latitude of Labrador, have winters so much milder than our own. The explanations of the men of science never quite clear up the mystery for us. Consul General Frost sends from Cork to the Daily Consular and Trade Reports some interesting items of evil dence that make the climatic differ ence all the more impressive. In touching on the influence of the war on Irish agriculture he brings out that England is Ireland's best GUS toner for foodstuffs. England gets from Ireland nearly half of the meat that 1t imports, about $112,000, 00o worth annually; a third of its egg inn ports, a sixth of it's butter imports, etc But by far the most impressive resources of the Irish farmer is the mild and equabl winter climate that allows the production of a variety and quantity of winter crops far be- yond what most Americans would be- lieve possible.
 For example Consul General Frost tells us that Irish farmers are in Jan uary harvesting cabbages from plants set out in September, and setting out onions from seed sown in the late summer During the last two months they have been harvesting turnips from seed sown after the potato crop was harvested Some kinds of veg etables and grains are planted in the late fall and harvested in the early spring in ample time to allow the use of the fields for a summer and au- tumn crop. At the present time, with the length of the war and the future food supply problematical, the govern ment is doing all it can to encourage Irish farmers to make the best pos sible use of their remarkable climate, both for their own profit and for the benefit of the tables of the more pop uIous island across the channel.

PIuInage for Men.
(Boston Herald. )

Now the masculine hat sports its tiny splash of color. Gone the plumed beavers which for three centuries dominated the world of fashion. Tabooed the sweeping sombrero for street wear in the teeming cities of the east But the students of sar- torial art note with 3 smile, and sometimes with trepidation, that the male, while loudly protesting his in- difference to the wiles of dress which are affected by the female of the species" is availing himself more and more of the little tufts of blue or red and the dainty scarlet feather Haunted upon the starboard side of certain headgears of the prevailing modv. Despoiled of the gorgeous raiment which his ancestors wore, his legs immersed in neither garments for which they never were moulded, denied any degree of polychromatic splendor poor man welcomes with becoming gratitude such small crumbs of comfort as this plumaged hat affords Of all the foreigners who ever visited the United States, excepting perhaps only Lafayette, Louis kossuth, the Hungarian patriot, received the most effusiVe welcome. Forthwith the kossuth hat, of soft felt with defiant and aggressive plume, leaped into popularity, threat ening to displace for good the high silk hat which was working its way into favor. But then the hat which was sponsored in 1S49 by Kossuth was supposed to typify the vigorous character of the sturdy old cham pion of liberty. Do the men of to- day fear to act upon their rights? Downtrodden for decades, it may be that at last they intend to garnish and enhance their beauty and that these side-wheel festoons are the harbin- gers of the good time coming.

pealed to the authorities to cause 1t to be adopted. .N9
 New Britain has had it's own trcub- les in the sewer line and is still having them, and yet. it has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in an attempt to solve the problem and pay damage suits The state which is vitally interested in the solution of this problem has made no effort to help and yet it ought to do so because the adoption of any sys- tenn that promises to take care of sewage better than any other system can be adopted by another city with none of the preliminary cost and as a general proposition that does not seem to be fair on the face of 1t. New Britain is working along that line now, but the feeling has been that the government should contribute towards the expense or take upon it. self the responsibility of making the investigation itself.
