THE sUGAR SHORTAGE.

Earl D. Babst, president of the
American Sugar Refining company
who has been testifying before com
mittee of congress regarding the re-
cent alleged sugar shortage, has en-
bodied much of his testimony in a re-
port which he has submitted to the
stockholders of the company.
The report shows that with one
third of the worlds sugar production
within the present battle lines, Eng
land, France and other foreign coun-
tries have turned to Cuba and other
sources which ordinarily supply the
United States. 1t is also shown that
the immediate causes of the present
shortage are increased consumption,
inadequate supply and delayed distri-
button.
Early in 1917" says the report,
there were serious strikes in nearly
all the eastern refineries. This caused
public apprehension. Sensational SUI
gar famine stories began to appear in
the papers later, and the public fears
were still further excited by stories of
the destruction of cane in the Cuba
instruction. A desire by the trade to
avoid excise taxes proposed in con-
gress added to the call. This demand
among dealers, manufacturers and SUI
gar consumers continued al1Sthe year
and was accompanied by boarding"
Then it is cited a great midsummer
canning and preserving campaign
urged by the government. furthered
by the trade, by the canning clubs.
and women's magazines. and by the
press generally, followed. so that by
November the consumption was shown
to be morethan a thousand tons a day
greater than the year before. 1t
| amounted to nearly nine hundred mil
lion pounds more than for the same
period in 1916.
AS to the supply and distribution,
the report continues, Java had plenty
of sugar, but it is so far that ships
took other trade channels. The har-
vesting of both cane and beet crops
in the United States was delayed, but,
more important. car shortages and
traffic congestion prevented the free
movement of these crops to the Allan
tic seaboard
If Mr.. Babst's statements are to be
relied upon, it seems that the sugar
situation, bad already. was made worse
by panicky conditions unnecessary
created.

SiXtyfive million pounds of paper
will be required for government print
ing in the year beginning March 1.
1918, according to estimates submitted
by the public printer to the joint com
mittee on printing. This estimate is
about so per cent of the quantity of
paper which the government printing
office will use during the present
year. 1t is expected that the total
amount of paper which the public
printer will have to buy for the pres
ent fiscal year will exceed 100. 900, 900
pounds, costing about 100000. 1t
is probably conservative estimate to
say that half of this immense amount
of paper travels a fairly direct road
to the waste basket.

GLOBE SIGHTS
GFrom the Atchison

IFrom the Atchison Globe.1
Men roast the women for gossiping
and then repeat what they say.
In every town you will find men
who complain the town is dead.
Americans are extremists; most of
us have either too much or too little.
Boxing exhibitions in a small town
are about as profitable as bush league
baseball.
Pride and not the lion-hearted cour-
age you read about is what makes
most heroes.
When men don't like each other
they show it; when women don't like
each other they hide it.
A man who thinks he can win at
cards will begin bucking the markets
if he ever accumulates enough money
Whenever a rich man takes part in
any public movement, there are GER
tain people who begin to intimate that
he is planning to get something out
of it.
1t is to be hoped that when the war
is over our young men will work as
hard to make good in business as they
did to make good as officers in the
army.

It did not require many words for
Lloyd George to state England's war
aims. Germany must restore all oc-
cupied territory to its rightful owners
and make full compensation. That
statements covers about everything
else. It means that any guarantee OF
these things by Germany must pro-
ceed from somebody who can be trust
ed to carry out the agreement. This
Of course would eliminate the kaiser
from the treaty making. That feature
of the situation has been clearly set
forth by President Wilson. Lloyd
George probably considered it unnec-
essary to refer to it. Neither did he
mention any guarantees for future
peace. This, too, seems needless.
When Germany has complied with the
British demands she will be powerless
TO disturb the peace of the world for
generations. 1t is probable that the
war will have taught the German peo-
pie a lesson which will make it inn
possible for anybody again to lead

Autocracy having made a complete
failure will be shorn of it's power for
mischief and the world will be per-
mitted to remain at peace.

Indicated by a compilation by the Ma

estimates our total output of L917 as
greater than in any searlier year and
shows that the United States actually
produces nearly as per cent of the
coal Of the world. In 1860 we were
producing less than 10 per cent of the
worlds coal output; in 1870, Is per

SCOTT HOPKINS.

One Of the fine tributes to-the late
Scott Hopkins is printed in the De-
cember issue of the Kansas Banker,
as follows:
1.-The announcement of the death
of Hon. Scott Hopkins brought to a
multitude of friends, to the commun-
ity, and to the state. deep and pro-
found sorrow; for he was esteemed
and honored as one who served his
fellow men and who, to an exceptional
degree dignified and ennobled his
profession. Nor can there be tribute
greater. Into active business life he
brought a we'll stored and well trained
mind, and into all life d good and gen.
erous heart and the beauty and grace
and adornment of culture. He was
profound student and thinker; sought
much the companionship of books;
was devoted to the arts and fixed his
affections OF. the good, the true and
the beautiful. He loved his friends
and was beloved by them. and none
to the other side, but bequeaths to the
world legacy richer than houses and
lands and gold.
But four years had passed since
Mrs Hopkins-they twain one, in the
sacred harmonies of happy home life,
herself the rare flower of refined, Gull
| tured, noble womanhood-WaS laid to
rest. And years had been but few
since father and mother too were TAX
an. Bereft indeed and yet calmly and
| unmurmuringly, albeit with broken
heart. Scott Hopkins was heard to ut
| ter these submissive words, SO signifi-
| cant of him-'It is the law
