orer and his family are prospering as they never could have hoped to in peace time, even though he has gone to the war, for in that event the chances are that his wife and his daughters and his under-age sons are working in munitions factories or elsewhere at wages he himself would have been glad to get in other days.
 The war has temporarily remedied two of England's greatest social evils, unemployment and pauperism. The other evening the writer strolling down Fleet Street and the Strand and returning to the United Press office by way of the Embankment, encount- cred only two beggars-both old men and blind. Two years ago he would have been accosted by fifty or more most of them able-bodied men eager to work.
 A good deal has been said about The increased cost of living here as a re- oult of tbe war. Recent figures from the Board of Trade Gazette" place the average advance in the price Of food-stufs in the last two years at 59 per ccnt,including the increased duties on tea and sugar as compared with an estimated similar increase in Germany of 12O per cent. This steadily diminishing purchasing pow CT of the pound sterling has been more than compensated by the higher wages and increased opportunities for steady employment for men and women.
 A visit to one of London's great de partmcnt stores any afternoon would convince even a casual investigator that the standard of living among the working classes has improved. The smaller customers that pay cash have increased in numbers, especially in the last year; former big credit accounts have dwindled. Particularly in muni- tion-mahng districts have tradesmer been profting. Wage earning fami- lies who previously had scarcely enough to keep the wolf at bay now buy expensive wearing apparel, jew elry, etc., in such quantities that the National War Savings Committee is frantically flooding the country with posters and pamphlets, and indcpend- cnt organizations are sending out lecturers beseacbing the people to "work hard, spend little ani say' much" for postwar days.
 
 There are scalawags in England to. day just as there are in Germany; grasping employers, eXtortionate mid dle men, interruptions retailers, talk ing personal advantage of this ab- normal situation. Somewhere between the farmer and the housewife the price of milk jumps from six certs to twelve cents a quart. In the matter of bacon, in the first five months of

Vice President Marshall is neither
reticent nor delphic in expressing
such mind as he has. In Il speech at
Terrc Haute he said
our only regret was that he could
not pry more Of the appolntees loose
and fill their places with Democrats,
II there is any Office under the govern
ment that Democrat cannot MI, | be-
lteve that office should he abolished. "
The Telegram has no doubt that this
doctrine found popular approval in
Terre Haute-whcncc so many dis
tinguIshcd Democrats. who were
doubtless deserving Democrats' also,

Tertiary at Ieavenworth for election

The exposure Of the Democratic Ma
tional Committees scheme 10 sand
bag the $4,000 postmastcrs of the coun-
try into contributing" ten per cent Of
their annual salaries to the Wilson
campaign fund has proved the sensa-
ton Of the campaign This attempt
was made by means of a circular adj
dressed to county chairmen by II.
Donna Ridgeway member of the fl
nance committee Of the Democratic
national committee, from POST
master, General Burlcson's state
Texas.
70 give further punch" to his de-
mand, Mr.. Rldgeway stated in his
circular that he wrote "at the in
stance" Of National Committeeman
PoindeXler, who had just conferred
with the national committee In New
York, meaning Chairman Mccormick,
with whom Mr. PoindeNter had Just
been in conference. The county chair-
men were warned that 1t was against
the law to write TO postmastGrs or to
demand such contribution in the
po8toilice. but were instructed to way
lay them elsewhere, to demand the
ten per cent assessment and to tell
them that ''if President Wilson Is re-
eli cted there will be permanent or
gan,zation of our force throughout
the country and a note will be made
OF the loyalty of those appointees who
contributed, as well rs the disloyalty
OF those who refused to contribute"
1t Is not without significance that
tho pnstotF'ce appropriation bill Just
passed carries an appropriation Of
S3l.OUO000. for compensation of post
masters.' When the Republicans first
procured and made public n COPY of
the circular, in which local chairmen
are instructed 10 "act intelligently"
so as TO avoid running afoul Of the
law Chairman Mccormick gave out
statement saying: These charges
are the most arrant nonsense and ara
absolutely untrue. They are in line
with the campaign of misreprescnta-
tiOn that the Republicans have been
making from the start" Mr.. McCor-
mick then learned that the Republican
national committee was furnishing fac
smiles Of RidEoway's circular to the
daily press He Immediately aban-
doned HIS denial, admitted that the
circular had been issued, but con-
tended that its distribution had beer
stopped. From numerous points.
