communications become closer and
more intimate, state lines seem to
be growing less plainly marked and
mere business considerations more
controlling than political doctrine or
theory
Because of the silent influence of
business associations and intimacies,
there is today nearer a nation than
a union of sovereign states, and the
Hamilton theory is unquestionably
ascendant over the Jeffersonian.

FOOD BOYCOTTS.

Observers of the effort to promote
boycotts of high priced foods have
not felt hopeful that much could be
done in this way. They have argued
that the people are too tickle and
disorganized to act as a unit in any
such matter. But some of the re-
suits of the Thanksgiving turkey
sale suggest the contrary.
AS many householders will recall,
turkeys this year were held at an
unusually high price. So far as the
public can judge. there was no suf-
flcient reason for it far fas as the
production of turkeys is concerned.
Expense of raising them may be
somewhat higher than previously,
but even at that price seemed dis
proportionate.
Apparently the trouble was that
commission men and other specula-
tors had secured control of large
part of the supply, and held it for
"a high price, believing that people
would pay it rather than go without
the customary Thanksgiving dinner.
But people are getting thorough
ly mad over the high price question.
They are willing to forgo their Gus
tomary habits quite bit, not merely
to save money, but to beat the spec
ulators. And there are a great many
substitutes that can be used for any
given food. The householder who
did not want turkey at the prevail
ing prices could have a mighty good
dinner on chicken.
1t is just the same on the egg
question. \ good grade of cold
storage eggs is an excellent substi-
tute for the strictly fresh brand. If
there is speculation in cold storage
brands, the public can use the many
patent preparations by which eggs
can be bought cheap in spring and
summer and put down in ones own
cellar. Fish and oysters can be
substituted for meats. An enormous
range of excellent canned goods can
be used very comfortably.
So the food dealers should have
a care. They can not indefinitely
get high prices based on scares and
panics. The turkey dealers lost
hundreds of thousands Of dollars on
the Thanksgiving trade. The hoy
colt idea is capable of very wide
spread use.

GOVERNMENT
REGULATION
OF RAILROADS

Extract from address by Charles
Murphy Gambler, Chairman of the
Railroad Commission OF Georgia, be-
fore the school of Commerce, Uni
versity of Georgia.
Passing of State Regulation.
The great percentage of transport
alton in this country is now in inter
state commerce. Whether entirely
pleasing to us of the South who have
for so long upheld in theory, and
tried to uphold in practice, the doc
trine Of rights of the individual
states, it appears to me more and
more that the field of regulation left
to the states is surely and gradually
being narrowed, and possibly the on
ly very solid substance being left to
the states is in the exercise of what
are described and recognized as
police" powers.

she said you could hire boy to per-
form such tasks for five and ten
cents an hour. Considering that
they worked irregularly and unskill-
fully, it was all they were worth as
compared to man.
But now she said she found the
boys often expected as much as rs
cents an hour. They are affected by
the high prices Of the age, they feel
their work in demand, and are not
willing to exert themselves unless
they are well paid.
A boy really gains great deal
from having some little enterprises
of his own. 1t brings him up again
st the hard work of the world, and
teaches him that he will not always
have parents and teachers running
to wait on him. Parents should not
permit his entire time to be engros-
sed in sports. 1t is too self indul-
gent life. They should also show
him that the amount Of wages he
receives as a boy amounts to little.
What he needs is to form regular
and dependable habits. These ac-
quired, good wages are sure to be
secured later.

WORK FOR
BOYS.

The problem of finding activity
for Young America Is one that wor-
ries parents. Theoretically they re-
cognize that every boy should have
certain regular working tasks. on
the farms the boys do find these en-
Payments. But in the city, town,
and even village life, 1t is often hard
20 find any regular labor for them.
The odd jobs of the community, the
raking and moving of lawns. care
of gardens, taking out of ashes, etc,
are apt to be done by the men of
the family. or by laborers who must
make business OF these jobs.
The time OF the boys Is much ia
ken up b. athletic and school enter
prises. Many parents hate TO keep
their youngsters at home saving
wood or chopping kindlings, when
all their mates are out playing foot
ball. The boys time is crowded
with their own sports and studies.
Parents and others who are look
ing for some one to do odd Jobs, find
il impossible to depend on the boy
element to perform them regularly.
Theu too. most boys nowadays get
an exaggerated idea of the value Of
their time. A School teacher was
speaking about this the other day.
She said she gets some calls from the
townspeople for boys who are will
ing 10 do odd Jobs. but that tho boys
are scorntui OF low pay. Formerly

A SHORTAGE OF
CAPTAIN.

A few years ago IL was commonly
said that there was an over supply
of capital. Savings and other banks
competed for chances to lend their
money.
Today there does not seem to be
capital enough in the country to
float all the good enterprises. In a
great-msny places there is scarcity
of houses for people to live in. But
no one seems to have the money to
build enough of them. Railroads
are unable to get credit for needed
equipment and the farming industry
is hampered by the high rates on
mortgage loans.
What is to become of the increas-
ed gains of farmers. food producers
and manufacturers; also of the bet
ter wages received by SO many skill
led artisans? viii all this incre-
ment be swallowed up by higher cost
OF living? VIII It be paid for auto
mobiles and other Injuries? VIII
it go into wild cat speculation, and
be gathered in by smooth promoters
for Investment in impossible schem-
es? Or will the banks and substan-
tial enterprises get their share, so
that railroads can be extended,
farms improved, houses built, and
manufacturing plants be establish
ed?
On this depends the answer to the
question whether our prosperity is
TO he permanent or not. If all our
now money goes out as fast as it
comes in. always being expended for
new Qualifications or for visionary
projects. nothing is added to the
productive power of the country.
The results of spendthrift policy
are disastrous both for the individ-
ual and the nation. There must be
a constant addition to capital to
keep up the advances of modern
science. increase of population, de-
mands of foreign trade. and TO make
good the wear and tear of daily use.
If these constant additions to capt.
tai are not provided. the people can
not be kept at work.
Thus the results of national ex-
travagance cut two ways. They de-
plete the individual income, and they
restrict all productive enterprises
and limit employment.

The Democratic candidate, who will
continue tomorrow his whirlwind tour
of the counties of this State, is mod
est in his estimate of his w personal
qualities. When his achievements are
understood his references to his bust
ness abilities will be found to be con-
servatively stated. Mr.. Wittpenn has
demonstrated that he is a shrewd
judge of conditions and possessed of
that discernment that brings success.
A man who was able to unseat SO
seasoned a political warrior as Mark
NJ. Pagan from the mayoralty of Jer-
sey City in 1907 and to keep persist
emily in the public eye since that time
must possess qualities of an unusual
sort. Henry Otto Wittpenn is his full
name, but he has been addressed as
H. Otto for so long that after the first
initial the remainder now is simply
a superfiuity, and the sturdy candi-
date has no use for excess baggage.
Born in Jersey City in 1872, he will
be A years of age on October Dist.
Mr.. Wittpenn was educated in the
public schools of Jersey City and had
visions of a university training when
the death of his father closed that ave
nue. to him at the age of eighteen. The
young man found that what once had
been a prosperous grocery business on
too much weight. His father had
branched out and opened four grocery
shops, and when reverses came the
funds were too low to stem the tide
What n. Otto Wittpenn had inherited
was not a prosperous enterprise, but
four stores with a debt of $4,000 upon
them.
The elder Wittpenn was the "big
man" of his locality and stood so well
with his creditors that they got togeth
er and proposed that the debt be wiped
out and that the son be given a chance
to start fresh. But young Wittpenn
declined to listen to any such PROPOSE
ton. He took off his coat and went to
1t with a will. He was just eighteen
years of age at the time, and it took
the next ten years of his life energet
ically working out the debt that he had
inherited. At the age of t~wenty-eight
he had the satisfaction of having clear
ed up the $4,000 Of debt and of dispos-
ing of the grocery business on a basis
that he was able to turn owe to his
mother a comfortable fixed income.

1t was the great success that he
had made of his late fathers bust
ness and the fine reputation that he
had built up In his W immediate
locality that caused the Democratic
leaders of Hudson County to turn
to him and draft him for political
service. The affairs at the Court

It is said that Queen Elizabeth bore
a greater variety of popular nicknames
than any other British sovereign. She
was called the "virgin Queen" "Glo-
riana," Good Queen Bess" and occa-

cessor, James L, proved such a feeble
and effeminate monarch by contrast to
the kingly queen that he incurred the
nickname, rarely ventured in public,
but frequently In the privacy of safe
company, of "Queen James,"
Elizabeth's masculine nickname, al
though less familiar to us today than
most of the others applied to her, is
recognized in Southey's punning stanza
upon the armada, in which he makes
playful and patriotic use of it in on
junction with the name of her great
naval commander, Sir Francis Drake:

BISMARCK AS A SPEAKER.
How the Great Prussian Statesman
Impressed Andrew D. White.

ttuRI<cSCo III CIV ~ WIN
1t was my good fortune to hear Bis
marck publicly discuss many important
questions, and his way Of speaking was
not like that of any other man l have
ever heard, He was always clothed in
the undress uniform of a Prussian gen
eral, and as be rose his bulk made bin
imposing.
His first utterances were dlsappoint-
ing: H0 seemed wheezy, rambling, In
coherent, with a sort of burdensome
self consciousness checking his ideas
and clogging his words. His manner
easily about and his fingers fumbling
his mustaehe or his clothing or the
papers en- his desk.
He pulled, snorted and foundered,
seemed to make assertions without
proof aid phrases without point, when
suddenly he would utter a statement
so pregnant as to clear up a whole
policy, or a sentence so audacious as
to paraiyze Il whole line of his op-
ponents. or a phrase so vivid as to run
through the ration and electrify 1t.
Then perhaps after more rumbling
and rambling came a clean, clear, his
torical illustration carrying conviction.
Then very likely a simple and strong
argument, not infrequently ended by
ONE heavy missile in the shape of IN
accusation or taunt hurled in the faces
Of his adversaries. Then perhaps at
considerable length a mixture of ca1s-
tic criticism and personal reminis-
cence, in which sparkled those wonder
full sayings which have gone through
