The man who is working at a

The farmer who sells his wheat

that advance back in the same way.
1t is the broker on Wall street who
gathers in the extra 80 or 80 cents
on the bushel of wheat.
And those Of us who are not en-
ployed in industries whose products
are sent to Europe are earning>the
same wage that we did before the
war and are paying double for every
thing necessary to maintain our
families.
What is the result? We who have
no offices on Wall street suffer and
we help the people in Europe suffer,
only to make the DISCRIMINATING

Suppose we put an export tax of 80

to fight, might cease casting peace

Jodre's Strategy Revealed.
Some OF these facts have recently been
revealed by NJ. Alexandra Miilerand.
who was French minister Of war when
the great battle was fought. lie makes
the surprising announcement that on
August Is orders were sent out to the
five French armies by General 'Joffre.
regarding the general positions they
were TO take up for the battle TO which
he was leading the Germans. entirely
unknown 10 themselves, which battle
did not begin until September .. Fur

out by General Joffre as early as Au-

the renewal Of the combined offensive
of the British. French. Russian, and

the theatcr OF action in the great war

Mr.. Asquith has already admitted
the possibility of an English defeat,
according to the Cologne Gazette,

ut is satisfactory to see that As

/, rnR coLORRD MIGRATION TO
the NORTH

a few years ago NUMBER OF gov
srnors and other prominent men Of
the South held conference, whose
showed purpose was formulation OF
methods by which larger share Of
immigrants might be steered to the
South. It was explained with start
ling frankness that the South want
Cd the white immigrants to displace
colored labor, which would be showed
salong-nobody was right certain
whither--and got rid Of. ss.
At that time some people warned
the South. that it was trying to- per-
ustrate a bad economic. mistake.
The Southern labor supply is chiefly
colored. If it had been possible to
bring in immigrants, and give them
the jobs of the black men, the latter
would have been left on the hands
Of the community, jobless, unwel-
come anywhere else, and in danger
Of becoming a dangerous element.
Moreover, the immigrant would not
have been so useful a laborer as the
black man, who is the ideal producer
Of cotton. ...... ..
Now the South is getting a new
experience with its labor problem,
and the smile is on the other side
Of the face. immigration has been
cut down just at time when the
whole country needs labor as never
before in decades. Northern and
Western enterprises are securing the
South, and carrying away its col
ored .laborers to earn what look, at
the moment, like preposterously
high wages. The South is suffering
because of its losses.
It is a bad situation. The colored
man is better off in the South, in
the long run, than anywhere else.
He will be apt to be the first per-
son out of work, in the North, when
slack times come again; in the
South he is, in certain realms, the
possessor of a near-monopoly of the
labor franchise. It is bad for the
South, and will not ultimately be
good for the North, which doesn't
understand managing the colored
brother so we'll as the South does.

quito is worst. A person afflicted
with the disease would thus infect

DR.. Braddock, in short, is Of
opinion that infantile paralysis is
to be combated by much the same
methods as yellow fever, of which
the mosquito is notorious as the
dangerous carrier. He says:
Both are filth diseases. Both
flourish In hot weather and cease I'm

the ,,, mosquito being the carrier q
will be found in infantile paralysis.
Both diseases spread more rapidly
In hot, humid weather. slow down in

the activity or auieseence Of the

early part Of the summer In this
latitude WAS extraordinarily wet,
and that there were more mos

of Greater New York, where the dis
ease has fourished. there are pro-
portionately fewer doors and win
dows screened against flies and mos
quitoes than In other sections. This
is important to know. as after the
first case occurs the opportunity OF
mosquitoes to bite infected persons
is greater In proportion to the
scarcity OF screening.
The tropical communities that
have set seriously about it, have
driven out the mosquito, and with
it yellow fever. DR.. Braddock urges
that infantile paralysis as a
scourge Of the temperate zones be
handled likewise; destroy the mos
quito, keep it away from people. He
writes: ..
In my opinion. after all sanitation
is accomplished and cities and
towns are cleaned UP. flies swatted,
etc. the patient should at once be
placed In isolation under a mos
quito curtain SO that no MOSQUITOES

started. just az Is done In the tropics

gotten that this season has been
vcry favorable to the propagation Of
mosquitoes. and to my mind this en-
plains the spread of infanti'e
paralysis in the Catskills. in Orange
and Sullivan counties, y. Y. and In
many towns In New Jersey. where
sanitation Is good and which ordi-
narily are the most healthful places
In the country. This also explains
its spread along the coast and In the
houses Of wealthy people living on
splendid country estates. where
every precaution Is taken. but there
Is no mosquito destruction. One case
in the neighborhood Is all that Is
needed to spread the disease.
