WHY NEWSPAPERS ARE
YELLOW

For a newspaper to be classed
among the "yellows" now is no reflec-
ton upon the quality of it's columns.
No doubt many good people have
been wondering just what is the rea-
son for the jaundiced hue of many of
the pages of the dailies and in some
hazy way connect it with Germany
and the war, which is quite right.
Bleach is scarce and has advanced
enormously in price. Before the war
it was $3.50 ton, but now manufac-
turers of paper are paying as high as
16k cents a pound for it, or $3.50 a
ton. Bleach which is nothing else
than chlorine, used to come to the
United States almost entirely from
England and Germany. But we have
heen growing gradually more self.
sufficient. Most of the supplies now
used in the United States are made a,
Niagara Falls, in Michigan and ir
pennsylvania. Many new plants have
recently started production, but the
demand is enormous. Not only is
chlorine used as a bleach for paper
and cloth, but it is now in great de-
mand for the manufacture of high
explosives. The plants of the Du
Pont company are using vast guam.

Had Poor Chance i.

A new minister in a rural district
who wished to make the acquaintance
OF the members Of his congregation
and also to discover whether they
were pleased with his discourse, met
an old farmer whose face he recog-
nized as one who had attended the
church. the previous Sunday, and,
stopping him said:
"Mr. Brown, how did you like my
sermon last Sunday?"
"Well, parson," replied the old
man, you see, l didn't have a fair

MADE IN. MONTANA

The residents Of a number of Mon
tana towns and cities are observing
Home Products weeks, special effort
being made to encourage the use of
Montana products of various kinds.
The products of Montana farms and
industrial establishments will be Civ
en- the preference in every case in
which they are brought into competi-
ton with similar products that are
brought here from other states.
Until recent years it might have
been said that Montana did not have
the raw material with which to manu-
facture, the necessities and luxuries
Of life, but this argument is no more
Montana has: everything now which
goes to make up the 100 per cent of
raw material used in manufacturing
except four-tenths of one per cent
6sh. ..........- .........,.. ...-. ........, -
Who can say that Montana does not
have the raw material with which to
make within her own boundaries, al.
most any article needed for food OF
clothing.
And power-it is cheaper in Mon.
tana than under the falls of Niagara
Even a small user of electrical energ,
may secure it for about $50 per hors.
power per annum, while in Boston il
costs $112.50; in New York Cit,
$3.50; Chicago $75.53, and in Cleve
land .$64.l7.
So there seems to be no reason WHY
Montana should not do more manu-
featuring. But there is a reason.
Montana consumers have not beer
educated to demand Montana mad
goods. This is the difficult task whic1
the Manufacturers association is un
dertaking in the present campaign.
Montana wheat is shipped to Min
neapolis where it brings the highes
price. 1t is made into -four and re
turned to Montana where it agai
commands the highest price. VIII
not buy the -four made in Montana
1t is made of the same wheat an
made just as well.
It is little early to, expect Mon
tana people to buy Montana mad
shoes, but the day is coming. No,

PROSPERITY FOR THE FARMERS.


Democrats are very much inclined
to point to the prosperity of the Am
erican farmer and the good prices he
is receiving for his products as vim
dication of the administration, in so
far as the rural residents are concern
ed, says the Billings Gazette. But
a little inquiry into the true condi-
tions reveals how false is any assump-
ton that the Democrats have aided
the farmers. On the contrary had the
Democratic tariff policy been worked
out to it's logical conclusion, thing
the war prevented, the farmers would
be the worse off of any class for there
was tax on the things they buy
and no tariff or protection on the pro-
ducts they sell.
The American farmer is feeding the
greatest armies the world has ever
seen. When production reached a
low ebb in the nations engaged in
the great war, an All Wise Creator
saw that there was record breaking
crop in the United States. The war
ring nations provided the market and
instead of sending their products to
the American shores to compete with
the American farmers, they took the
products of the American farmers to
their countries and paid good prices
for Theal. =
A few comparisons of purchases by
Europe before and after the war show
how the great conflict has come tc
the aid of thefarmers and saved them
from evils of an ill-advised and ex.
perimental piece of Democratic tariff

tecting danger and securing safety. All things
considered, it would appear to be dream anc
/ nothing more to assume that any type OF SUD
marine can ever come to play an important
part in the passenger traffic or the commerce
bearings of peaceful times.
On the other hand, the effects on naval con-
struction may be far reaching. The under
water terror grows UNNECESSARILY in the appear
ance Of vessels which emerge from beset
ports, cruise for long periods undiscovered and
carry sufficient munitions of destruction to an
initiate many enemy ships. The fact that the
present adventurer is ship of commerce is be-
side the point She might just as well have
been war craft. Very likely there are in the
water or under construction other submarines
of the same size and capabilities armed for
war; IF so, there is a new and incalculable fac
tor entering into the present European strug-
gle; it would be absurdly premature to forecast
defeat of the British navy through its opera
lions; but, at least. such an outcome is conceiv-
able
This, we take it, is the most serious sugges
ton or implication of the remarkable crossing
of the Atlantic just consummated at Baltimore
Apart from the demonstration that Germany
can build vessels that can be made so formld-
able for fighting and raiding, we cannot clearly
see any probable effect upon the current of the
war likely to alter it's outcome. Assuming that
Germany could send to us by submarine mer-
chantmen considerable consignments Of small
bulk and high value, such as the present ru-
mored cargo Of dyestuffs, the advantage to her
as a belligerent would be practically negligible.
With her manhood all engaged in the war or
in producing war supplies, Germany cannot
have much save holdover stock to export, and
exports are Of small consequence to her today
except in so far as they may help to pay for i'm
ports.

THE DEUTSCHLAND, AND AFTER.

MOTIFS CuflOr, a director or the IranSatlan
tic Trust company of New York City, the larg-
est Austro- Hungarian banking house in Ameri-
ca gives his opinion that in event it is proved
that submarines of large size can pass between
the two continents there is no reason why sys-
tematic service should not be continued after
the war.
Mr.. Cukor may be pardoned if his judgment
is somewhat bent by the strain Of enthusiasm
growing out Of the arrival at Baltimore of the
merchant submarine Deutschland It is to be
granted that the Deutschland is a splendid
achievement of contrivance and seananship.
Her building is an evidence of national genius
as well as tribute to the stern compulsion Of
necessity Her voyage across the Atlantic to
an American port aligns in daring, in skill in
romantic inspiration with the great naviga-
ton of this age Of discovery. The whole world
salutes Germany for her fine exploit Most
likely no people on the globe are more appre-
ciative of it than the English.
1t is not with any purpose of dimming the
glory of the feat accomplished that we turn
from its more obvious phases to consider it's i'm
portance factor in the present situation
and on the future of the high seas. Nothing
can discount the event as marking an epoch in
the history of travel But considerable misiudg-
ment may arise from impulsive appraisal, as in
the case of Mr.. Cukor, of it's consequences,
whether in peace or war. envy understanding
u.s. says Mr.. Cukor, 'that the German govern
ment is trying out an undersea mail and mer-
chandise service. If this voyage was as sue
cessful as it appears to have been. there is no
reason why a fleet of boats should not come
and go at wll.''
In reverse of Mr.. Cukor's statement it would
appear that the submarine of the new class has
It's future usefulness altogether in the activities
OF war. In times of peace there is no obvious
advantage In it over vessels sailing on the sur
face OF the sea- 1t is not cheaper of construc-
ton nor is it economical in operation as an
ordinary ship; it is slower and far less comfort
able; 1t is doubtful whether it can ever be so
designed as to carry an equal quantity of cargo;
Inaliy, Its navigation is and is likely to remain
much more precarious than that of modern
