PRAIsE FOR GRANTLAND.

THERE is exceedingly gratifying thing in con-
necton with tho legal and ethical controversy
that has arisen as result Of the appointment Of Child
Labor Inspector Charles H. Grantland to be
Der OF the Public Building Commission That is that
while the organized and the unorganized friends OF
the Child Labor law and the Ten-Hour law question
his legal and ethical right hold both Offices, they
are practically unanimous IN their praise OF him for
the manner in which he has discharged the manifold
and important duties OF Child Labor Inspector. Nor
do they question his ability to FIJI the Office of Public
BUILDING Commissioner in a manner acceptable to the
public
II will be recalled that Mr. Granuand, who
appointed TO the latter Office after bitter legislative
fight which. on the Child Labor Commission question:
conyused the state. From the time he assumed The
Office Of inspector up to this hour he has been under
the critical scrutiny OF persons who would not have
hesitated to speak IL they had discovered any
thing criticize. And now, when he apparently is ON
the eve of retirement from that nspectorship, the
worst that those critics have to say about him is that
he has been a remarkably good inspector and has
done all that he could reasonably be expected to do
with the equipment he has had at his command They
do not think however. that he could continue to do
such good work if he to attempt to hold both
Offices.
Mr. Grantland is a Republican official The record
he has made reflects credit upon the Republican party
and strengthens both it and him in public esteem
We congratulate him upon having received such a
clean bill health from those who doubtless expected
to find his official conduct much material for cen
sure but who frankly admit that he is deserving
OF unqualified praise.

Editorial Opinion
TIE RISE IN DRUGS.

From the Washington Post.
There has been considerable Won
derment on the part Of the public why
many drugs and medicines not inn
ported from Europe have greatly in
creased in prices. The explanation
undoubtedly is that while the drugs
themselves are manufactured here,
some of the ingredients are imported
from Europe.
There has been a serious contraction
i'm the stocks of all fine medicinal
chemicals, crude botanical drugs,
coal tar products, foreign oils and Far
East spice products, which combined
with sharp advance in the cost of
producing domestic chemicals, has re-
suited in fresh price advances
throughout the market
Many values are today merely nomi-
nal and arc fixed at random by who
ever happens to hold the stocks
Il was inevitable that with the de-
mand so great and the supply so small
there should be speculation. It is ad-
mitted in New York that large quanti-
ties of various drugs, some Of which
have risen in prise 1000 per cent,
change hands half a dozen times in
the course of a days trading opera
tions.
Quinine has been holding relatively
steady on the basis of 81 an ounce in
the jobber's hands and IS cents an
ounce for bulk in the manufacturer
hands. New supplies are being re-
ceived from Brazil however, which
may relieve the situation.
While the scarcity Of imported
drugs has really produced this situa-
ton, it would be deplorable If specula-
ton should aggravate the suffering OF
sick persons and invalids. An inquiry
into the present situation might be
conducted by the Federal Trace Com
mission to determine whether the laws
intended to protect the public are
being observed.

The Democratic Doctrine
Is ''a Tariff for Revenue"
lFrom The Washington Post.J

With his change of position upon the,
question Of duties or no duties upon
sugar. President Wilson returned to the
true. Democratic policy of tariff for
revenue--a policy indorsed by three
generations OF Democrats.
But the Democratic policy does not
contemplate a stop at sugar. 1t did
propose the use of the tariff IN a broad
way, a national way, a practical way,
in a way that would provide the reve-
nues required by the Federal govern
mcnt, and the country and the party
will be benefited ii the Democratic
President only insists that the Demo-
cratic Congress shall proceed to legis-
late on the lines that the interests Of
the masses of the people of the country
demand.
The revenues needed by the govern
ment now can be provided through in
crease of the tariff duties, and, follow
ing the good work in repeal of the er-
roneous sugar legislation of two years
ago, this increase should be made by
The Congress during the present ses-
sion.
Secretary Rcdfcld has repeatedly
pointed out the danger that will CON
front this country at the close of the
European conflict through the dump
ing' OF surplus products Of the labor of
other countries
Whether the rmors of immediate
peace, which have been so numerous
during the past week, arc we'll or i'll
founded, it stands to reason that eX-
haustion of supplies of men through the
slaughter that the spring and summer
months may witness will conduee to
peace in the autumn or early winter,
and then will come the pressure Of Euro
pean and of Asiatic commodities upon
the markets of the United States
That pressure will develop rapidly
with the close of hostilities, and the in
dustries of this country are liable TO
be greatly depressed through such inn
portations before the Congress assem-

MILFORD AND THE BOULEVARD.
From the Milford Chronicle.
The dupont Boulevard should be one
of the subjects in which Milford is ac-
lively interested. and no effort on the
part of the people should be with
held; for twenty years. yes, ten years
after the boulevard is completed, the
property Of this part OF Delaware. and
especially about Milford. will have
doubled in value. and the farmers will
be enjoying returns from their pro-
ducts which they have never dreamed
of receiving. This will make Milford
one of the most important shipping
centres OF the Peninsula. and this is
no dream; for the trucks which will
ply between here and the lower part
OF Sussex county to bring and carry
freight to and from our steamboats,
will also bring for our stores in the
way of customers who will reach here
by automobiles for forty miles dis
tant It will mean large modern de-
and it will mean more money in cir
culation for the people as well as the
banks. We need and must have the
boulevard completed, and it is up tc
you to show your appreciation Of the
