WORKING FOR SOMETHING.

/ Country boys do not kick vn
hard work and plenty of it if they
have something to work for.
Some fathers do not seem to real
ize this fact. All fathers have
plenty of things squirting them
on and are willing to work to
their limit six days in the week
with little diversion except
church and viewing their crops
on the seventh day. They are
busy acquiring more wealth to
properly care for their families.
They have some objective, but
the boys are likely to have none.
and under such circumstances
work with no enthusiasm. Work
without enthusiasm is drudgery.
Give the boy some objective; see
that he is working for some
thing may be a share in some crop
or some live stock, or it may be
ball games or other sports which |
he may anticipate with pleasure.
A boy who has an objective in his
work is happy at it and will do
we'll; if he works hard day after
day only because he thinks he
has to, the chances are he will
zrow up to hate farming. A boy
grows manly by achievement: he
cannot achieve without a chance.

The Ford Boom.

Whatever the Ford boom may signify.
it does not presage. we may all be sure,
Mr.. ford's nomination for President by
the republican party. These are abnor-
mel times. Surprises are almost the
order of the day. That there is some
millennialistie sentiment in the repub-
lican party everybody knows. But to
assume that man without political
knowledge, ambition, or experience, I'M
known 10 the political world until re-
Gently, and known there now only as
an amiable wisher for peace in Europe
and elsewhere, will be called to the
leadership of one of the two great par

on one issue, is an assumption too alb
normal even for abnormal times.
The miilennialists have some strong
men in their ranks, but the strongest

The Tenth Week at Verdun.

The tenth week of the Verdun drive
opens today with no appreciable change
in the situation over a month ago. In
fact, outside of the ground taken by
the Germans in the first week or ten
days of the impulse, the advances have
been relatively small and unimportant.
The fighting is now along the line which
may be reckoned as the actual Verdun
defense, in that if it is carried by the
Germans they will be in position to
dominate the city itself and perhaps
force its evacuation. But Verdun AS a
city is Of no particular importance now
The military significance of the town
has long since passed. What is Of real
importance is the control Of the rail-

The Sugar Duty.

Sugar continues on the dutiable list
without time limit. The Senate sur
rendered to the House. The controversy
was brief-so brief-so soon done for
one is tempted to wonder what it was
begun for.
The result will still further hearten
those Louisiana democrats who at the
polls last week stood by their party and
elected it's state ticket in the face of
the national administrations attitude
toward sugar. A combination of bull
mOosers, republicans and protection
democrats nominated and supported an
opposition ticket, but could not land it.
Even with his free sugar fault, the
democratic organization stood by the
President.
Whether there would have been a diff
ferent result-the surrender by the
House to the Senate, giving sugar only
four years more of grace-if Louisiana
had voted against the democracy is but
conjecture. But the subject is such as
to invite conjecture, and conjecture pro-
duces several different opinions.
Something more tangible and definite
relates to what the result promises the
sugar industry for the future. On this
point opinion is general that sugar is
now on Easy street again. 1t yields
handsomely in the way of revenue, and,
regardless of which party wins next No
vember, large revenues will have to be
collected for some years to come. APP
preparations are going to mount high,
and all legitimate sources of revenue
supply will be tapped. So that whether
the democratic party or the republican
party is commissioned for the task Of
filing Uncle Sans wallet from March
next, sugar is reasonably certain to be
assessed for it's share.
The republican party is committed to
a sugar duty on two grounds, revenue
and protection Not for many years
have the sugar men of Louisiana given
that party their votes either in congress
sional or presidential elections, but have
trained with and supported the party
frankly inimical to them in its perform
ances and professions. But this has
never been resented in legislation by
the republican party. and could not be
resented by it without a violation of
its tariff policy Protection is national;
and to be properly effective it must be
applied without thought of section or
party.
Thus has begun that revision Of the
Underwood law made necessary not
alone ny the war, but by the lines of its
construction, which run in many things
contrary to the tariff policy which has
made America great, commercially and
otherwise.

roads south of Verdun, by which sup
plies reach the French front. If Yer
dun is captured the use of these lines
| becomes extremely hazardous and per-
haps impossible.
A recent dispatch from Paris states
that according to a recent computation
made by the French military leaders the
German drive at Verdun has comprised,
| first to last, about 1000 men, continu-
ally reorganized into fresh divisions as
the losses have caused reformations.
Der engaged in the offensive. Some
French estimates have placed the Ger
man losses up to a recent date at 20o,-
900. No reckoning of the French l;.S'es
has been possible, though the German
reports have indicated they have been
very heavy. The only ground for as
suming that they have been lighter than
the German casualties is the fact that
the Germans have in the main been on
the offensive, and the French on the
defensive, though within the past week
or so the situation has been reversed,
the French attacking vigorously.
No word has yet come of the presence
of Russian troops at the French front,
though it is known that they are on
their way north from Marseille. 1t has
been expected from the time that the
arrival of these forces in France was
announced that they would go to Yer
dun, though this may not be the pur-
pose of Gen. Joffre, who may be intend
ing to use them in reserve. to release
French troops for front trench work.

are not republicans, but democrats.
Until few months ago, President Will
son stood at their head. Part of the
difficulty the advocates of prepared
ness are now encountering springs from
sentiment against preparedness created
under the influence Of the Presidents

and is trying to rectify it.
Mr.. Ford, naturally, is taking a soberer
view of matters since the Michigan and
Nebraska pollings. What at the outset
seemed to him a joke seems to him now
to have some sort of meaning. He is
discussing it somewhat in detail.
A very significant thing he has said
is that he will not finance any third
party movement-any Ford party as dis
tinguished from the republican party
and the democratic party. Probably he

them if possible to feather their own
nests. Mr.. Ford is business man, too
keen and coolheaded as to coin to be
made the victim of bunkoers.
Mr. Ford believes-as, indeed, all calcu-
lating men do--that this years contest
will be between the two old parties.
One or the other will win. The demo-
cratic party will be led by Mr.. Wilson.
If Mr.. Ford is to be nominated for
President, therefore, it must be by the
republican party. Such thing is in

Provision for Ippolito.

An immediate impulse manifested it
self when the accident to Crossing Po-
liceman Ippolito Saturday became
known to provide fund for his fam
lily in case his injuries result fatally.
His heroism was universally recognized
and applauded, but the primary reason
for the Offering of funds was that this
man, who unhesitatingly risked his life
to save that of a child, belonged to
class not entitled to a pension. He
wore a policemans uniform, and was
vested with a policeman's powers. He
was under the discipline and require
ments of the police department. Yet
the law makes no provision for his care
if disabled in the line of duty or for
his family if killed.
A bill is pending to correct this in
Justice, and it has been urged by Off
Gals and citizens in the hope of early
enactment. The Ippolito accident GER
tainly is cause for a prompt passage.
Public charity may make provision for
the widow of this brave man, if he
should die, or for his suceor if he re-
covers, but is incapacitated for further
service. But such cases should not de-
pend upon charity. There should be no
discrimination between a crossing po-
liceman who risks his life to save
child from a speeding motor and a
Irregular" policeman or fireman who is
injured trying to save life at fire or
in any other emergency.
The prompt showing of interest in
Ippolito's case bespeaks high sense of
appreciation of his heroism by the pub
lie, and doubtless there will be an
abundant offering to make ample pro-
vision, whatever the outcome of his in
juries.
