THEY DON'T WANT PORK.

 H Congressman w Frank James, the 12th district of Michigan has written letter to the New York Tribune explaining When Congressman thinks that his consti tuents want him to bring back pork he is wrong"
 Mir James gives specific instances. There was intro duced into the Senate bill public building in the home town, Hancock, Mich MT. James promptly wrote home that he would introduce any such bill until he had asked Department of the Treasury whether the town entiteld from it's posofce receipts to such building and if so what would be just be ex- pended upon it.
 Not a single person, single paper" writes MT. James, criticised my position. those of home town that wrote said my position entirely correct" Next the question of making Fort Brady, Sault Ste Marie the upper peninsula into regmenta post James that he of the opinion tkat there many useless army posts which ought be aban- doned If competent army and navy committee should recommend that Fort Brady be abandoned, the fact that he lived in the upper peninsula would not change his the matter.
 Again. mot single person. not a single paper as far as I know criticised my statement, but many people and practically every paper indorsed what I said"
 There also matter of pensions. And Mir. James against bill appropriate s25OOOOOO for roads My district believes in good roads-we have many of them here-and do l. but do not believe in pork. Not wrote condemning me, but many wrote mending
 The 12th district of Michigan is composed of the same kind of people the average district, believe If people the 18th district anxious have their rep resentave bring back pork they have concealed their wishes from he"
 This would prove that the average citizen is fair to the nation whole is the who all the privileges and of the responsibilities.
 If the ordinary citizen will think intelligenty on public matters, and then will keep his congressman informed of his views there will be marked improvement in the way the business of the nation is conducted.

POOREST PAID PUBLIC SERVANTS.

New York City school teachers who planning to form union addressed the other day by Samuel Gompers president the American Federation of La bor the teachers had indicated desire to make their union completely local unconneced with the great Federation.
 Co ahead you please, said Mir Gompers cheerfuy,
 If we are good enough for you You think that you professional people, but tell you that the hod carrier you in the is getting than you. poorest paid and the least considered public in the country. And whether you affiliate your union with us not whether you organize not the Federation will help you in every way it because it it's duty to do so."
 This painful comparison of teachers with bod carriers wasn't necessarily true of those MT. Gompers ad dressing but New York teachers said better paid than any others in the United States But it showed ruhfully enough the predicament of the Amer teacher She literally "the poorest paid and the considered public servant in spite of the high honor in which preentd hold public educators And while there are theoretical objections to teach unions' it be admitted that if the teachers can't get living wages any other way they justified in organizing for the purpose.

LIVERPOOL Correspondence of The Associated Press)-Although six months ago from forty to fifty steam CTS were lying in the Mersey at one time waiting for a chance to dock, to- day this congestion has almost entire ly disappeared and what delay does occur is due to shortage of labor rather than lack of berthing accom- odations. The chief reason for the falling away in the amount of tonnage coming into Liverpool is the heavy call the government has made on the Brit ish mercantile marine.
 official returns for Liverpool show that from January 1 to February of this year 267 vessels aggregating 703 030 tons were reported inwards as com pared with BPS ships of S6l ,224 tons for the corresponding period of last year. while 2S5 ships of 754,502 tons cleared outward this year as against 367 ships of 1,112,564 tons for last year for the same period.
 No reduction in freights appears in sight owing to the shortage of buttons The government is exercising it's con trol of shipping by forcing the steam CTS to devote themselves mainly tC foodstuffs.

WHAT BABIES NEED.

Now that all the infant welfare organizations in the country have had their say about better babies and in is full of a fine enthusiasm for making baby life happy, the fundamental requirements may be sum- med up briefly.
 Babies need fresh air night and day They need sun light but their eyes be protected from direct glare Babies quiet sleep and lots of it. Babies need clean surroundings and clean clothing and clean bodies Babies need clean wholesome, nourishing food
 Whether political parties rise fall whether there is armament or pacifism whether anything else is done done these things done for the babies of the nation.
 It's not easy it to get these things. Vast interests tied up in babys housing, babys clothing, babys and baby sleep whose pockets hurt whose shoes are pinched what manufacturers have to pay higher wages install additional machinery, what political pork and graft has go by the board is of 5equence The babies must have their due and every eitizen must that they get it.

JAPANESE SEEK ID
 DRIVE OUT DEMONS
Orientals Cling to Traditional Customs of Superstitious
 Ignorance.

TOXIC, Feb. 4. Correspondence of The Associated Press)- Ceremonies. typically Japanese, were held tonight throughout the empire-in household. shrine and temple-to drive away the demons of ill-fortune. The date cor responds to the old Chinese New Year marking the transition from winter to spring under the ancient calendar.
 Tradition long observed in Japan holds that the demon of ill-luck may be kept away during the year by pelt- ing them with hard beans and by hang ing outside the door a branch of holly hook and the head of a herring. The idea is that the herring, whose odor is distasteful to the demon. will keep the evil one from entering the house and that if he succeeds in entering he will be blinded by the beans. Each member of the household takes as many beans as~he has years and throws them in all directions and in all the rooms of his house.
 It was about 1900 years ago during the reign of the Emepror Monbu that the first ceremony of demon-removing was held in Japan. Adopting the rite from China, the Emperor incorporated it with the object of stamping out an epidemic that ragged throughout the land.
 Tonight's modern celebration was like this: Toward evening housewives became busy preparing for the celebra tion; beans are cracking in kettles and feasts are prepared for the family god and the family. Meanwhile the husbands clean the shrine, light the sacred lights and burn incense. while awaiting the beans and the feast. Parched beans are offered in a wooden box to the family god and the family clap their hands and reverentIy bow before the shrine. Then the master carrying the box of beans. starts round his house, followed by his children to pelt out the demons of misfortune. When he throws beans towards the di- rectiOn of the god of good fortune he cries out: Come in. fortunei" Chil- dren gather the scattered beans and vie with each other in seeing who gets most.
 There is a syllable superstitution re- sarding the word bean which may ex- plain why il plays such a part in the ceremony. The Japanese for bean"
 is 'mame" and mame" means health" Therefore the bean is the emblem of good fortune.

CITY WEEDS.

New Orleans has found way to eliminate hay fever. And it isn't any new-fanged scientific process either It's just just the plain, dfashoned device of getting rid weeds which has been preached in all American communities generations and seldom practced with with any degree of enthusiasm.
 the city utilized the services of twenty convicts to the ragweeds and other growths whose swollen pollen is supposed hay fever, not only the city, proper. but all it's immediate suburbs, cleaned up The immediate result of course, vast improvement in the sightlness of New Orleans landscapes When the hay fever arrived the vic tins than usual they suffered less intensely and the disappeared several weeks before it's usual time

 Here's good chance for the hay fever veterans and city beautiful reformers in every weedinfesed city to get together on something worth while.

NEXT BRITISH LOAN CAUSES DISCUSSION
 AMONG FINANCIERS
Terms of Forecasted English Borrowing Operation Fur nish Food for Much Wall Street Pondering.

LONDON Correspondence of The Associated Press)- Many attempts nave been made to forecast the terms of the next British government borrow ing operation which is expected to take place at tho end of March, and though no hint is to be obtained from any authoritative source. Stock Elk change and investment circles are talk ing of a long-dated five per cent issue at par, for an unlimited amount. They also suggest that a feature of the loan 10 tap big amounts of trustee and oth- CT funds, will be the insertion of a clause to the effect that the stock can be handed to the government at par value in payment of estate and death duties. This clause, it is considered, will be attractive to executors of es- tates and trustees generally, as under the present system stocks from a de ceased estate have to be sold at the current market value which is ire quently considerably below par If this materializes, the smaller incomes will still be tapped by the existing five per cent exchecquer bonds and the working mans savings by the suggest ed return of twenty pounds at the end of five years for every sixteen deposit ed in the savings bank.
 Another idea which has been con siderably debated in financial circles. is a four per cent issue at 9S free of income tax, while certain people have not altogether abandoned the hope that some sort of lottery or premium drawing will be decided upon. Such a scheme would undoubtedly appeal to the sporting instincts of the working classes particularly in the north of Englanr and to a certain section in the citv.
 In the meantime the war financing is being done by means of exchecquer tonds. treasury bills and tax collec- tions but as the treasury bills which are of three, six, and nine months dur ation begin to become due the govern ment have to find funds for redemp- tion as well as for interest and other charges. large loan will necessarily nave to be fioated soon.
 Very little has been heard lately of the excess profit" tax, but it is being hinted in certain quarters that the re- suits will be stupendous and the fig ures greatly in excess of the thirty to forty millions sterling which was talked of some time ago as likely to be netted by. the government. Next year the figures will be still larger and some people are already giving an esti- mate as high as one hundred to two hundred million sterling, pacing their figures on first hand knowledge of the prosperity of certain industries in va rious parts of Great Britain, and the publication of balance sheets in indus trials concerns which show that pro fits have recently been doubled. These estimates may be somewhat optimistic but the forms now being got out are expected to reveal a larger source of income for war purposes than was gen. erally anticipated.
