Shippers in Trouble;
Violates Food Act

Messrs. Lee Miller and Jim
Roffe, shippers for the Dresden
Fruit Growers association, have
been summoned to appear at Gin
cinnati to answer charges preferred
against them as shippers for the
local association for the shipment
OF unlabeled or unstamped ham,
pers OF sweet potatoes in violation
OF the regulations Of the pure food
and drug act, which provides that
every hamper of potatoes, every
box and crate Of berries-in fact,
every parcel, must be stamped or
labeled to show the exact amount
or quantity contained therein. It
is charged that the local growers
shipped sweet potatoes to Cincin-
natl in hampers which bore neither
stamp nor label giving the guam
tity OF potatoes contained in the
hampers.
This is causing the shippers,
Messrs. Miller and Roffe, consid-
cradle annoyance and may cost
them considerable sum Of money.
This will doubtless be a warning
to them and they never again will
accept for shipment any berries or
potatoes not stamped as required
by the law. 1t is regretted that
these gentlemen, who have devoted
so much time and attention to the
berry and potato industry here,
should be called upon to go to
Cincinnati to answer this charge,
spending their time and money
Tor a matter every member OF the
association is equally concerned

Dies as His Home
Burns at Mckenzie

Mckenzie, Tenn, March TO-
|. W. Black, one Of McKenzie's
best-known citizens, died suddenly
this morning while witnessing the
burning of his own residence.
The family did not know that the
house was afire until the alarm
was given by the city water de.
partment. Mr.. Black had not
been in good health for some time,
and the shock brought on heart
failure. He fell in the yard and
when assisted to a bed soon expir-
ed. He was a member Of the
Presbyterian church, having been
a deacon for many years. A wife
and five children survive him.
Mr.. Black was a native of this
county. He was born and reared
in the Tenth district, and the re.
mains were laid to rest Sunday at
Mt. Zion burying ground.

Where Eden Was and Is.

The Nebraska minister who announces that
the Garden Of Eden was located not far from
Omaha and on this side Of the Missouri river has
merely confirmed an opinion that has long been
held by careful students Of the Biblical story
1t Is beyond comprehension why the announce
ment has so long been delayed. All material evil
dence supports the proposition. At any rate no
place in all the world can vie with this region
in its productiveness, its capacity for supplying
all Of mans creature wants. while at the same
time affording him the inspiration as well to sus-
tain and develop his spiritual nature. We are
loathe to think. even now, that Adam deliber-
ately forfeited his right to live in this delightful
region, where every prospect pleases and man
alone is vile" 1t must be so, though, and in
charity to the ur-father of the biggest family
known we may think OF him as living ever after
in vain regret 1t is quite likely that when dryen
forth he went to Kansas, for in that section of
the world he could better appreciate the meaning
Of the mandate: I'm the sweat OF thy face shalt
thou eat bread" Kansas certainly conduces to
and induces copious perspiration. But hereabouts
we find constantly multiplying evidence of the
favor that has been in all times bestowed upon
the land around Omaha and in fruitful fields vol
uptuous vineyards and fecund hocks resented
proliferous proof of the assertion tia his was
and is the Garden of Eden. The preacher is right

Monkeying with Mans Apparel.

II has come to be the custom in the United
States for some self-appointed arbiters elegan-
forum to enthusiastically pronounce in what
manner mere man shall be attired. Those who
are moved by the dicta thus emitted and who ear
nestly strive to regulate their garb in conformity
thereto find themselves everlastingly perturbed as
to whether they are doing the right thing in the
proper way. Happily for humanity most of that
division of the population to whom the bifur-
Gated garment is appropriated by custom as we'll
as law gives little heed to the oracles who de-
cree the involved and complicated schemes for
masculine adornment Thus the latest dictum
under which the suspenders and the belt alike
are elected from the wardrobe to the limbo of the
questionable, is likely to receive about the same
amount of serious attention as did that which
would have man bedeck himself in prsmatic
hues till his exterior resembled rainbow. We
want it distinctly understood that too much of
responsibility rests on the suspenders to be lightly
transferred to a loop of elastic tape while the
belt performs some functions that are not to be
shifted. Furthermore, il the sartoria pundits
care to know in what estimation they are held
hereabouts, let them sojourn in this vicinity at
any time during the next few months and watch
the happy, prosperous, hustling burgher of
Omaha disregard their advice and go without
vest while cnging to both his gauses and his
surcingle .~..

Spirit Of the Crusader."

Opinions expressed by DR.. Fred Morrow
Fling are entitled to something more than Or
binary consideration, but his choice Of SMILES
in reference to the possible entry Of the United
States into the world war is rather unfortunate.
One usually thinks of crusader as a militant
medder, while crusades as rule are marked by
an attitude Of presumption on part of the active
participants. However, the word Crusade" is
much misuscd, and it is possible that Dr. Fling
employed II in eolloquia rather than spe-
cihc sense. .,
The United States, il it enters the war at
all, will do so with utmost reluctance, and with
nothing OF the spirit OF the crusader. 1t will
be with no purpose to establish our own po-
litcal or economic ideals, beyond supporting our
right to hold and enjoy the same. Nor will we
try to enforce our ways Of living on any peo-
pie. Sane and effective social reforms do not
advance on such lines
Our part in the war so far has been passive,
but resolute, to the extent that nothing of our
national beliefs has been surrendered. Nor have
we undertaken to impose these beliefs on others.
So far as the older peoples of the world are
concerned we will yet be content to teach them
by example and precept and without entering on
a crusade.

New Spirit in China.

Public attention. focused on events in Eu-
rope, is missing one of the most interesting evo-
lutionary movements in modern history in not
noting what is going on in China. Some notice
has been given to affairs there. because of the
acts OF tho Japanese, the change in government,
and suggestion from Baron Shibusawa that the
United States join with Japan in exploiting the
great empire, but these are only the outstanding
salients Of the news. What has really occurred
is of vastly greater Importance, for the future
rather than the immediate present
China has established itself as a republic.
thwarted an effort of its first president to seize
the imperial throne as emperor and has now rein
stated the republic, with strong and able man
at its head, surrounded by capable and patriotic
advisers. This government is so supported that
it has been able to practically compel by moral
force revision of the Japanese demands that
startled the politicians Of the United States year
and half ago. 1t was that affair that really
awoke the Chinese to their national sense and
aroused the spirit Of patriotism thought to have
died out. The example set by the people, through
the enormous voluntary contribution TO the fund
for defense and the more effective boycott on
Japanese wares gives the new statesmen Of China
encouragement in their work
That these statesmen, many of whom are well
known in America and some of whom, like DR..
WI Tlng-fang have been on terms OF intimacy
with leaders OF American thought turn to us as
their friends is welcome result of a policy OF
justice and generosity. Unless, some monumental
b!under prevents, the readjustment Of world rea-
tons will find China well placed among the pow
ers and Chno-American entente, based on mu-
tual regard and understanding hourishng to the
advantage Of both peoples.

Rehabilitation of the Missouri Pacific.

Omaha and Nebraska have a special concern
in the rehabilitation OF the Missouri Pacific which
is about to emerge from its receivership. In
mileage and territory covered the Missouri Pacific
is one OF the great railroads of the country and
it has one of its main termn in Omaha. 1t is
greatly to our advantage to have every railroad
serving US adequately financed, well equipped and
efficiently conducted and there is every reason to
believe the Missouri Pacific will from now on oe-
cupy stronger position than it has ever before
held.
The road has been brought successfully
through the receivership period under the guild
ance of Benjamin F. Bush, who is practically GER
tain to succeed to the presidency and who will
be looked to, in that capacity, to continue the
broad-gauged progressive policy inaugurated by
him as receiver. Omaha wants the new Missouri
Pacific to make more of this end Of the line as
soon as it is able to do so, and in natural conse-
quenee, to make more out Of it. If the end Of
the receivership means, as it should, the writing
Of Omaha in bigger letters on the Missouri Pa
cihc map, the road will also have right to look
to us for reciprocity and cooperation.

Fixing Prices by Commission.

The surrender of the paper makers to the
Federal Trade Commission can hardly be taken
as establishing the right Of the government tt
fix and maintain prices on commodities If the
movement meaps anything it is an admission on
part OF manufacturers concerned that the prices
exacted were boosted by combination within the
purview of the antitrust laws and not as a re-
suit Of trade conditions. The settlement lust
announced is salutary as indicating the posi-
bility of stopping price manipulation without in
terfering with legitimate conduct of private bust
ness. The trade commission can serve by fol-
lowing up this line and perhaps with few more
similar adjustments much of the so-called .psy-
Geological" causes for inflated selling prices will
be removed and the buying and selling of the
country may be placed on more nearly reason
able basis than has prevailed for several months,
