one OF the largest yisibles in our his
tory.
Foreign crops suffered this year
and foreign needs are urgent
enough to give our growers very
profitable prices for their products,
yet the movement furthered by the
consumers OF this country pro
poses to rob our growers of that
profitable situation and TO nullify the
laws of supply and demand by arbi-
trary ed;ct. When war broke out and
the farmer was offered 70 and so
cents for wheat in American markets
no consumers league offered to step
into the breach and pay him a fair
and attractive price The efforts of
our federal government then were
solely directed 10 re-estahlishing
shipping facilities. exchange avenues,
and some other means of reaching
the foreign market SO that our grow
er could dispose of his surplus. There
is great domestic injustice in deny
ing to him now the fruits of this
present grain situation, and there is
more than that-there is interna-
tional imm orality in such a PROPOSE
ton. These countries abroad, bat
Ting for their existence, have had
their means of production curtailed
until they depend on our crops for
their sustenance. We should help
them to such supplies even If IT

meant privation and ourtailment for
ourselves. There is no sign in our
present crop supplies of any such pri-
walton being necessary, and 1t is per
lectly proper for the grower on his
domestic sales, as well, to receive the
equivalent of what the same grain is
worth abroad
An embargo against these coun-
tries with whom we have now an
enormous trade would be deeply re
sented and Justly so, and such an en-
barge from purely business reasons
would be very unwise There have
been times in the past when we have
needed the help of Canada's export
surplus brought over to our own
mills to help out our own supplies
and in the future years with our in
creasing population there may be
years of crop curtailment in our
country when we must rely on the
great crop areas of Canada to help
again. 1t would be unwise to act
now, at this time Of their great need.
to lay the foundation for resentment
and retaliation when the consumers
OF our country may need the help of
the Canadian provinces.
THE daily press reports day after
day the advanced scale of wages
which is being granted to labor out

ers, who are profiting by a higher
wage scale than ever before, now pro-
pose to ask the grower to give up his
share of the prosperity and accept
the normal price for the product of
his farm, and skill, and labor, al
though for everything he buys he
must pay a higher price occasioned
by the higher labor cost of produc-
ing it. 1t is unfair, it is unwise

has given them the first glimpse of
their possibilities. | know men and
women whose whole lives have been
nodded, the entire trend of their ca
reer completely changed and upliit-
ed beyond their dreams, by the books
they have read.
Ii We are ambitious to have our
children associate with people who
inspire them to noble deeds, then let
them read uplifting books which vii
stir them to make the most of them
selves.
The mothers OF our city, in my
judgment, have no field for ,hetr
Iabors at the present time that is so
inviting and that promises such al
Turing results for their labor than
the getting for Pullman a public
library
In view Of our city's financial con
dition we should exercise the great
est OF economy in the administration
of its affairs, at all times consistent
however, with efficiency.
Our paved streets have brought
with them the burden Of keeping
them clean. Like waXed floors,
when clean they are beautiful, but
noticeably bad and repulsive when
dirty. Everybody can help keep
them clean by not throwing waste
material on them. The water which
we have in such great abundance
should be generously used in street
cleaning.
As a beverage, JOY producer and
sorrow killer, intoxicating liquor,
Jamaica ginger, peruna, and Pink
hams compound have proven bril-
liant failure, and many OF our citi-
zens, including physicians, are justly
complaining and demanding that
something at once be done to make
it more difficult, if not impossible, for
the deyotees OF these popular rem
edies when applied 10 their intended
use, to get them. Now, acting upon
their complaint and demand | sug-
gest and recomm end that an ordi-
nance be passed making it unlawful
for a druggist to sell or in any other
manner furnish to any person any
Intoxicating liquor as such, or any
alleged medicinal compound contain
ing sufficient alcohol to produce in
toXication, without first having a
written permit therefor from the
mayor or chief Of police, as the case
may be. This has been tried and
proven a success in other cities of
the state and the superior courts
have held such ordinances valid.
There has been much discussion in
regard TO my attitude toward the
pool rooms of our city. These are
licensed places and so long as they
are conducted in compliance with
the laws in relation thereto, | shall
protect them in their rights.
1t snail De the purpose ana pfac-
tice of my administration to arrest
any person found on our streets or
in any public place in an intoxicated
condition and in order that our laws
may be generally enforced and
obeyed, we call upon all good citizens
to aid in the enforcement thereof by
informing our executive officers of
any known or suspected violations.
Willing and cheerful cooperation in
this regard by every good citizen will
very materially aid in making our
city what we think it should be from
the standpoint of morality and 2ood
government.

THE EMBARGO ISSUE

Chicago, Dec. S.-Deelaring that
an embargo on grain and other food
stuffs would be deeply resented by
foreign countries and unwise as a
matter of national policy. julius H..
Barnes, a prominent exporter, ad-
dressed the Fourth National Confer
ence at its closing session today. Mr.
Barnes said in part:
The past two months has seen
widespread agitation for the reduc-
ton of grain prices by an embargo
on exports. Most of this agitation
is based on the theory that with our
short crops, particularly of wheat.
our domestic needs are imperiled. In
my opinion this is exaggerated and
foolish.
Statistics as TO grain crops and
supplies are VIGOROUSLY hard TO ar
rive at correctly, and the history of
80 years of grain distribution in
America shows that the price factor
is a great upsetter of statistics.
There is no question that with our
present high price of wheat, the rec
ord of final movement TO market will
greatly exceed any calculations OF
total crops and carrying over sup
plies. This is being shown even to-
day. Actually we have accumulated
al points of primary accumulation
