Law of Supply and Demand

War does not destroy the laws of supply and demand, or suspend their operation. There is no law that will compel the farmer to cultivate his acres if the prices he can obtain for their product is not sufficient ly remunerative. Those laws are as eternal and memorable as the everlasting reason of which they are the expression. Disaster follows upon their obedience and in the great post-mortem laboratory of his tory we find that there is a pathology of states as we'll as of men, a science with laws which may be interpreted and understood and the non-ob- servance of which will be sure to bring disaster.

WAR PROFITS IF JAP AN GO TO

(By Associated Press)

TOXIC, Nov. 30.-Profits derived by Japan from her trade since the be ginning of the war amount to 1,50O, 100000 yen. The premier, Count Ter auchi, at dinner which he gave in honor of the special finance commis. sion to the United States recently stated that of this amount, the nation had expended one billion in co-operat ing with the allies.
 On the same day the Japan asso citation in aid of the sick and wounded in allied countries announced as the total sum collected, 2,OO2,9s3 yen, of which 100000 yen was given by the Emperor and Empress. Of this fund France, Italy, Russia and Belgium will each receive 363,OOo yen; England 36S.O00O yen and Serbia and Rumania each 60,ooO yen.

Roosevelt Doing His Bit

Deprived of the pleasure of
 participating In the war as { soldier Theodore Roosevelt is doubtless grieving, but he is nevertheless playing a useful, if querulous, part. Indeed he is playing what Mir. Wilson might in other circumstances describe as a noble part. Who IS so jealous as Mr. Wilson for what the idealists of the inner circles, the college presidents and the intelligentia call "ser- vice?" It is noble to render " service'' to our fellow-men, says MT. Wilson and all the good philosophers and kindly Christians of the class room and front pews. Indeed the man who does not render "ser- vice" is the cant term of the unco guid.
 Now, "serviceY' is precise ly what Mr. Roosevelt is ren- dering to his country in this great war, and this despite the studied neglect of him in Washington, notwithstanding the wet blanket that was thrown on his ambitions when he announced his readiness to become either a leader or an obscure subordinate in France. Yet, MT. Roosevelt is indeed rendering valuable service, :" for these are time in which there Is need of a Thersites to keep our political rules mind ful of the urgencies and exi- gencies of a frightful situa- tion; and MT. Roosevelt is at tending to this business in fine style. We know of nobody so we'll qualified as he to keep the High and Mighty from stewing in the exudations of their self-satisfaction. And he is going so we'll in the perform ance of this self-imposed duty that we have ceased to deplore the little politics that was play ed to deprive him of the oppor- tunities of conspicuous display on the battlefield.-Ex.

No Quitters in America.

It is said that General Persh- ing fears the American people may be discouraged by the re- ports that the deadlock on the western front cannot be hrok- en. American resources, lie in- sists, with those of our allies can force military decision.
 The general needn't be dis turbed; the American tribe is used to long uphill fights. If history is accurate, our fore fathers fought for indepen- denoe several years longer than the present war has last ed. In the civil war both north and south held on in the face of the greatest discourage ment.
 Ine general may rest aSSur- ed that there is no other thought in this country today than to fight it out. The Am erican people come of d fight ing stock. They are not quit ters and when they start some thing, they carry it to a sue cessful conclusion. As some of the l. w. w., pacifists and pro- Germans are finding out these days. Uncle Sam is long or patience, but rifle him up once and there is something doing.

A LAND OF WONDERS.

Alaska Is a land of big things. It is, indeed, a big thing itself. Few people real ize that Alaska has an area which is considerably more than twice as great as that of Texas. The territory is 800 miles wide and HOO miles long. Its area is as great as that of all the states east of the Mississippi river and north of Mississippi and South Caro- lima. We are so accustomed to seeing Alaska shown upon a little corner of the map of North America that we fail to get proper idea of its immen- sity.
 There are other things con corning Alaska aside from its immense area that are not gen ,erally appreciated. It is com monly supposed that Alaska IS a land of continuous winter that it is always covered with snow and ice and that the people who live there are com pelled to wrap themselves in furs the year round. Much of Alaska is colds 1t is true, but there are parts of the country where the climate is delightful, where, in winter, freezing weather is far from being the rule. In certain districts near the sea where the influence of the Japan current is most pro- nounced the winters are very mild and the summers are long and delightful. In those parts of Alaska strawberries, mel ons and other fruits and vege- tables peculiar to the temper ate zones are grown in con- siderable quantities.
 Mt. Mckinley, the highest peak in North America, is in Alaska, and now it is reported by explorers who have just re- turned from there that they have discovered in Alaska the greatest volcanic crater in the world. Katmai IS the name of this immense rift in the sur face of the earth. It is nine miles in circumference and B. 600 feet deep. The crater of katmai is so much greater than anything else of the kind ever seen by men that it has been called the eighth wonder of the world.
 During the past few years travelling to our far northern territory has been made com paratively easy, and many peo- pie who formerly were in the habit of going to foreign coun- tries to enjoy the wonders of nature have been finding in /" Alaska many things to marvel at and to enjoy. The seacoast of Alaska is as magnificent in many places as that of Nor way, with it's famous fiords and cliffs of ice. The richness, the magnificence and the im- portance of Alaska are only be- ginning to be understood. It's development has hardly been started. Springfield, o. News.
