that was heard when the idea
Of regulating railroad rates
was first taken up. The same
moan was heard when the
minimum wage law was estab-
lished in Oregon. The COM
plant is as applicable to the
child labor law as to the eight
hour law. 1t was just as ap-
plicable to the IA hour law as
to the eight hour law.
The success of legislation to
advance the welfare of those
who toll is a blessing, not an
evil. 1t is economic sunshine
and it will hurt only the bugs
that thrive in darkness.
1t is particularly untimely
for any northwest newspaper
to complain about the settle
ment of the strike. The north
west has great crop to move
and did not want a Transports
ton tie-up. Congress settled
the issue and should have cred
it, not complaint. Is the Tele-
gram in favor or repeating the
eight hour law and of yet fore
ing a nationwide strike?

THE GRAIN INSPECTION
LAW

~ HE grain inspection law
VI Just passed by congress
would be of particular
benefit were it in operation at
this time, One of the Difficult
ties in shipping wheat east By
rail arises from the fact the
eastern and western standards
as to grain differ materially.
Last year western buyers com
planned much against the treat
ment accorded them on the At
lantic coast. The eastern men
were in doubt as to the grade
of the western wheat and be-
ing in doubt took advantage Of
that doubt. The ultimate loss
of course was upon the, farmer
This will always be the way.
When there is doubt the pro-
ducer loses because the buver
is in position to safeguard him
self.
The principle of the graiu
inspection law is good and
when the machinery is once in
operation the results should
be satisfactory to all sides.

days ago he was the sole re-

convention La Toilette harsh
ly criticised the republican
platform and those who man
aged the convention.
But despite this lack of

nominated by the republicans

ing majority. 1t is evidence to
the effect that thousands of
republicans, not only in Wis
consin but elsewhere as well,
share the La Toilette views.
Progressive republicans are re-
ally closer to Wilson than to

Of its destructivenesS and the
fact some nation might violate
a treaty and take another by
surprise.
This has brought forth the
following from the London
Observer:
The conquest of the air is too splen-
did in its promise to be abandoned
through fear of the mad dogs among
the nations. That is a counsel of
weakness. Besides, not yet is the timo
when nations can lay down their
arms without losing their souls
But the remedy is simple for all to
see. The nation that committed the
crime of surprise and unprovoked
aerial attack would lay itself open to
Instant and terrible reprisals by the
aircraft of it's victim; while London
for example, was being destroyed,
our fleets Of aircraft would be wing
ing their way to the enemy's cities.
Even with millions slain and
more to die the European view
is that it would be weak to
plan for the avoidance of de-
struction in the future. If that
idea is followed to the end
what will the answer be?
