PROOF OF THE PUDDING

The proof Of the pudding is IN
the eating. The test of law lies III
the results it accomplishes. In the
last campaign one of the strongest
contentious of the advocates OF the
statewide prohibition law was that
If would have the effect Of reducing
crime and thereby would add to the
happiness and welfare of the people
and would reduce the cost of main
tenance of the courts, and the penal
and eleemosynary institutions Of the
commonwealth. This contention was
strenuously com atted by the oppon-
ents of the bill, who maintained that
its enactment would result in los
tering acts of violence and violations
of law.
The measure has now been IN
force for six months, long enough TO
afford fair basis on which to de-

warehouses, and even then a guess
has to be made as to the amount re-
naming on the farms.
1t is manifestly of very great i'm
Dortance to both the producers and
consumers of this grain to know at
as early a date as possible the eX-
act size of the crop. The stock ex-
change spectators are the only ones
Who profit by uncertainty as to the
real amount Of grain harvested.
It would be a comparatively easy
matter to determine accurately the
amount Of grain produced and to do
it as soon as the threshing is fin
ished, without waiting for its deliV-
cry. If each of the grain producing
states would require by law that
every person operating a threshing
machine should make sworn state
mcnt Of the amount and kind of
grain threshed in each county by his
machine. to the auditor or some
other official of that county, such
official to compile the totals for his
county and to send the figures to the
state auditor or some other designat-
ed state official, who in turn would
compile the totals for the state and
forward them to the crop reporting
bureau of the department of agri-
culture. then all uncertainty as to
the real size of the crop Of each va
riety of grain would be eliminated
and the crop reports would be based
on actual instead of estimated
yields.
Such reports, being absolutely ac-
curate. would be of far greater bene-
fit to the producers and consumers,
than the present reports, which are
based on estimates that frequently
prove unreliable and sometimes miss
the truth by millions of bushels in
many states. To require threshing
machine operators to make these re-
ports would not work a hardship on
anyone. and the result would be OF
general benefit by stabilizing prices
and discouraging speculation. The
records Of the threshing machines
tell the true story of the harvest and
are worth more than any number OF
guesses as to the yield.

An even more impressive showing
is to be found in the comparison be-
tween the number of inmates adj
mitted to the Monroe reformatory
and the state penitentiary during six
months in 1915 and the six months
since the state has been dry.
During six months in 1915, ISL
delinquents were admitted to the
reformatory as against 80 from
January l to July / this year. Dur
ing six months in 1915, 215 Grim
mails were admitted to the state
penttentiary, while during the first
six months of 1916 the number was
reduced to 100.

The nomination of E. A. Bryan by
the republican party would be an ad-
mission that educators are not dis
qualified to make able statesmen.
This admission would nullify one Of
the chief arguments which the re-
publican party intends to use against
the reelection OF President Wilson
Therefore the republicans of Wash
ngton should not vote for Bryan for
senator. The above is a good sam
pie. not only of humoresque. but Of
Humphreyesque logic.

AN ELOQUENT TRIBUTE

Il can see the accusing picture OF
Christ on the battlefield, with the
dead and dying all around him, with
the scream of shrapnel and the roll
of cannon, and | can hear the Master
say to Woodrow Wilson. Blessed are
the peacemakers, for they shall be
called the children of God.
Some of them tell us that the
presidents foreign policy has been
evil and yacillating. Tonight 90
5000 American fathers will gath
er around an unbroken family fire
side with their wives at their sides
and their children around their
knees and contrast that with the Old
World, the world of broken firesides
and gloom and mourning upon every
hand. If that is evil and vacillating,
may God prosper it and teach it to
the rulers of the Old World.
-Four years ago they sneeringly
called him a school teacher. Today
he is a world teacher. His class is
made up of kings, kaisers, princes
and potentates, and the schoolroon.
circle is the globe.
Without orphaning single
American child, without widowing a
single American mother. without fir
ing a single gun or shedding drop
OF blood, he Wrung from the most
militant spirit that ever brooded
over a battlefield the concession of
American demands and American
rights. Senator Ollie James.
