ing the responsibility for it upon the American operators he shows that he has made but a cursory analysis of one situation. He fails to take inu consideration the part which he has played in driving the mine operators out of Mexico. He could hardly ex- pect that they would remain there to be slaughtered or to have their em- ployes or families murdered by ma rauding bands, and yet that is why Americans were warned to get out of Mexico and why they responded even though they delayed such action until no other course was possible.
 Had Carranza furnished the protec- ton which he promised to and which he asserted he was in position to do. there would have been no question about the Americans remaining there and running their mines but when he does nothing to prevent footing and killing and general lawlessness he cannot expect that Americans or any others are going to make such sacri- fees for Mexico.
Norwich bulletin., 1916-08-16
THE EXPORT TRADE.

Frequent reference is made by those who are supporting the administra- ton to the fact that the present bus mess activity is due to the policies which have been put into effect by the democratic party That this is only campaign talk and known to be as far from the facts as any claims that the party is responsible for bumper crops must be generally rec Ognized, but the National Foreign Trade council points it out clearly following it's investigation when it says that the excess of export trade over normal rests largely upon these c circumstances:
 Abnormal war demand and prices for munitions, foodstuffs and raw ma teriaI.
 Elimination of normal European competition through occupation of European factories in munitions pro- duction.
 Loss of labor through enlistment or conscription and belIfgerent re- strictiOn of normal exportatiOn
 "Curtailment of investment of Eu- ropean capital in neutral markets, normally a stimulus to European ex- port trade"
 These are all conditions which re- suit from the war. They cannot be relied upon as permanent and no greater mistake would be made than to look upon them as such. To do so would be to hold that the European nations have permanently crippled themselves indUstriaIly which is so far from the facts that it deserves no consideration. The fact is that there are great trade dangers following the declaration of peace and it is not a moment too soon to make preparations to meet them.

At the field meeting of the State was pointed cut that fruit growers can make money in this state. That is true of every agricultural line in this section. Money can be made off the land just the same as in any industry, but it requires thrift the same as everything else Dissatisfied ction is the cause of the trend downwards in some agricultural sections, and the example set by those focking to the cities on those left in the country. At the end of a decade though, the story of city life with a mere existence in many in stances causes reflection. With a little modernism applied to farm homes it is only safe to presume the majority of people would rather run their chances on the land than being cooped up in small quarters.-AIiddleto Press.

THE SUPREME COURTS WORK

When President Wilson selected As sCCiate Justice Brandeis as a member of the Mexican commission he did so with the understanding that his aC- ceptance depended upon the consent of Chief Justice White of the supreme court, of which tribunal Justice Bran deis is % member. The declinatiOn of the appointment therefore because the chief justice considers that the busi- ness before the highest court in the land IS such that the services of one of the justices cannot be spared even for the service which he would rem der, calls attention to the fact that while others have been selected for |ork outside that body that it is a practice which cannot always be ap- proved.
 When it is realized that the court Always has a raft of business before it and it's decisions in most instances are of vital importance, and when it is understood that there are members upon that bench who are disqualified to sit in certain cases because of their previous connection with them it must be appreciated that wisdom pre- vailed in the decision which the chief justice made and particularly so if as hinted, one stops to consider that there is political tinge to the ser vice desired.
 Every member of the supreme court has plenty to do in handling the bus mess which comes before it. It must get first consideration ana it Is ap- parently the chief justices intention to see that it does.
Norwich bulletin., 1916-08-16

For a time automobiles apparently thought that the law governing the passing of standing trolIeys, was made to be broken. It was not until several arrests were made and fines inflicted that motorists began to think that the statute was enacted to be obeyed. A great improvement has lately been noted in the way in which autoists observe the law. The need for eau ton is every day apparent. The stand ing trolley has a capacity for all sorts of trouble. People usually mean to be careful when they aIight from a street car but there is every chance for them to become beWildered or confused, do- ing the opposite thing from what they intended to do. Motorists do not al ways take into account the possibilities of such things and act on the premise that a man should have eyes in the back as well as the front of his head
 There is still room for improvement both as concerns the trolIeyite and the
