''The Americana" Has Fine Fairbanks
Role.

Douglas Fairbanks makes his latest
appearance as a Triangle star in the
five reel drama "The Americana"
dramatized from the novel Blaze
Derringer," by Eugene P. Lyle, Jr.
The play, which will be seen at the
Isis theater Thursday, has to do
with the adventures in South
American republic of a young Amer
lean named Blaze Derringer, who goes
to Patagonia to represent American
mining interests. He finds the coun-
try in state of revolution, with its
president and prime minister, who
have been friendly to his company,
overthrown and in peril of their lives.
Before his departure from New York
Blaze has fallen violently in love with
the beautiful daughter of the presi-
dent, and lie finds her in dire peril Of
being married by force to an officer
of the revolutionist army. Of course
the quelling Of a revolution and the
restoration of order is a trifling task
to young man of Mr.. Fairbanks in
tense nature, and the close of the pic
ture sees the Williams properly fooled
and the girl rescued in order that she
may wed the athletic hero.

TAKE OVER THE WIRELESS

Secretary Daniels recommendation that wireless tel
egraphy in the United States be made a national monopoly
merits instant attention. Experience during two and one
half wears of war shows that this agency of communica-
ton is not to be entrusted to private interests. Manifest
" it should not remain in the control of foreigners.
One of the problems of neutrality has been the super
vision of radio stations privately owned. While this has
been laboriously attempted, it has not always been success
full. An fundamentally so difficult to regulate and so
indicated as one to be taken over by the government and
placed forever beyond the reach OF intrigue and greed.
If at any time our foreign relations should become
critical, involving naval and military movements OF vital
Importance, present conditions are such that every d1spo-
sition of ships and men would be instantly known the
world over. We can have no confidential knowledge even
of our own affairs while these titanic evesdroppers are lis
tening, ready to flash the slightest hint of fact or gossip to
remote lands.
Some very powerful wireless plants are already in pos
session OF the government. Acquisition of all commercial
stations and prohibition of private enterprises would give
the people equal service in time of peace and greater Sc
curty in time of war.

THE MINES IN THE PAST YEAR

The New York Tribune, dealing primarily with Il
metals, sums up the growth of last years m'n'n
,eration as follows:
1t was a great year for the mines. While the IN
dustrial and trade record of our country for the last
twelve months is impressive and extra ordinary in
all its parts, there is nothing in it of greater inter
est or more encouraging than the reports which
show a remarkable increase of mine output. This
growth was stimulated by high prices and unprece-
denied profits. For example, the years dividends
paid by mines in five Rocky mountain states were
more than $Ioo,ooo,ooo. Great additions to output
were accompanied by the utilization of valuable ma
terial which had formerly been thrown away.
Brief reference to a few of the facts will show
the forward movement. At the pig iron furnaces
nearly 100000 tons were made, this being an IN
crease of 81 per cent. Copper output as 2,3ooooo,-
900 pounds. Here a gain of al per cent in quantity
is seen, with a rise in value from $242,ooo,ooo to
$52o,ooo,ooo. 1t may be recalled that the compan-
les received one foreign order for A8yooo,ooo lbs.
Spelter output was enlarged by IS per cent, with
an addition of $6o,ooo,ooo to the value of the prod
uct. The years lead was worth 81 per cent more
than that of 1915.
The present high rate of production cannot be
prices, some of them doubled in the last two years,
must then decline. Probably however, there will be
a fair market for more than was taken from the
mines before the war, and the utilization of what
was then called waste and treated as such will be
contained in the by-product coke ovens and at the
great smelling plants, where much that was lost in
past years is now saved, to satisfy the needs of new
industries.

FOOD PRODUCTION PER CAPITA

Secretary Houston of the department of agriculture
gives out a statement to the effect that the food produc-
ion per capita in the United States shows a falling off dur
ing the period from 1890 to 1915. This will be seized
upon to support the arguments for the advance in selling
price OF foods. Aside from that it has significance, per-
haps, as showing only that the American farmer is not
realizing fully his opportunity. Yet the dependability of
the figures on which the secretary's conclusions rest may
be open to question. No accurate census of the number of
meat animals in the United States ever was taken. Lo-
cal assessment returns are relied upon by the department
at Washington, and the uncertainty of these is such as to
cast a shadow on any tabulaton dependent upon them.
The same is true as to reports on the production of grainsQ
and other food supplies.
Other sources of information, such as daily receipts
at the markets, export shipments and the like, give the i'm
preston that quite enough of foodstufs for immediate
demand is raised in the United States. Wheat, corn and
meat animals, the great sources Of supply for the table of
the people, have shown little diminution in recent years.
At any rate receipt at the primary market show a contin-
ually mounting total. An immense surplusage of export
is always present, and shipments for the last two years
have far exceeded any previous record. The United States
is feeding a much larger proportion of the people of the
world than ever, and this without depriving it's own.
If Secretary Houston's purpose is to stimulate the
farmers of the country to greater effort in advancing pro-
duction, he will meet approval of the philosophical, but
will encounter the opposition of some advisers, who urge
the farmer to restrict his activity that even higher prices
may be obtained by reason of scarcity. The future of
American agriculture in all is branches depends on the
action and intelligence of the American farmer.

This thing of issuing bonds to pay for the cost of
modifying our militiamen on the Mexican border and the
current expenses of our extraordinary government does
violence to the fundamentals of common business. Bonds
are issued theoretically to pay for some permanent i'm
provement or some obligation which the future should
share. To issue them in order to raise money for the
current expenses of a government is on a parity with the
policy of an individual who mortgages his home in order
to raise money to pay his regular household bills. 1t is a
policy which is prophetic of a coming crash and most de
structive of financial credit. Mortgaging the future and
spending the money may make pleasant the present but
the dav of reckoning is as sure as it is distressing.

"LABRATORY" WORK GONE WILD

"Teaching the young idea how to shoot according to
modern methods has brought many novelties into the
school room, but it has remained for a Wisconsin high
school to put the top sheaf on a shock of experience in this
direction. Girl members of a class in domestic economy
are reported to have adopted a two-months-old baby, that
they may demonstrate thereon the household hints and
other advice given them as to the care and sustenance of
infants. Old-fashioned indignation will rise at this eX-
hibt of the extremes to which a fad may be carried. 1t IS
possible and probable no harm will come to the child and
that it will have treatment better than it could have in its
mothers care, yet even these concessions will not answer
objections to taking over a babe on which to allow school
girls to prove out their experiments. Wisconsin has OBJ
tanned considerable notoriety for many sociological depart
ures, but this latest looks like carrying the uplft to the
verge of the ridiculous.

for this reason that Champ Clark's proposal to abolish theI

ton and therefore has no possible chance of preparation
