GEES DAUGHTER IN PRISON
Mother of Mrs. DC Saulles Comes
From Chill.

Mrs. Blanca Vergara Errazuriz,
mother OF Mrs. Blanca de Saulles,
slayer OF her husband. John l. de
Saulles. arrived in New York recently
from Chilli. and two hours later was
in the arms Of her daughter in the
Mineola, l. l., jail. The meeting was
most pathetic.
Mrs Errazuriz was accompanied by
her daughter Amalia, an older sister
Of Mrs. de Saulles. and by her son
Guillermo.
The prisoners mother has big blue
eyes and a slender petite figure. But
the blue eyes were Redeemed slightly as
Il by weariness Of tears, and there
were lines in her face that told OF
sorrow and anxiety. She was dressed
In deep mourning and the blond hair
showing under ms. veil draped hat
was threaded thickly with gray.
The son and daughter were in
marked contrast 20 their mother The
former. in gray lounging suit and ten
nis shoes tall. dark eyes and clear cut
Of features, looked like the American
college boy OF the best type. His sis
ter. a wholesome-lookin young wom-
an. wore q light brown sport suit"
sadly wrirkled by travel. She re-
vealed no resemblance TO Mrs. de
Saulles.
When asked for an interview Mrs.
Srrazuriz hesitated and then turned TO
Mrs De Sauiles's attorney.
Tell them this" she said in perfect
English, that I am here 10 do for my
daughter al that a mother can do.
That is all will or can say at this
time"
Mrs. ErraZuriZ and her son were
taken 70 the Jail by the shortest road.
while Miss ErrazuriZ went to Mrs. de
S3uilcs's home in Roslyn. l. /, where
the family will reside for the present
when iail was reached the mother lost
no time in hurrying 20 her daughter.
As she entered the building she noted
with pleasure and pointed our four
white doves settled on the coyinE over
the window Of Mrs. de Saulles's cell.
No one intruded upon mother and
daughter. JUS what was said those
outside do not know, bur for some
minutes there were sounds'of sobhinE.
Then both women quieted and the
daughter launched into q history OF
her troubles
Mrs. de SauIles told her mother OF
her husbands alleged infideliues OF
his RlieC Ced threat 10 take little
Jack from her and of the many
cruelties he inflicted upon her. For
two and one-hah hours mother, son

Foremen and managers of many of

by the female employees AT least one
expressed himself as being more

the provisional government, make j. clear
that the situation is not hopeless. What
has not been fully realized here j. that
the Russian revolution was not a peoples
revolution in the ordinary sense.
Ii was n coup detat, engineered by the
most conservative leaders in Russia. Con-
servatives, inthis instance, did not mean
reactionaries. The old regime, the corrupt
bureaucracy, is the only reactionary force.
The provisional government, representing
the more substantial elements in the com
munity. including the middle classes, the
intelhsentsa, H. at once conservative and
progressive, democratic and responsible.
The trouble is all with the radicals, Il very
limited class, and the trouble they are ca
pable of creating, which presents grave
difficulties for the new government, has
been largely confined 10 Petrograd.
The Workmen's and Soldiers delegates
in Petrograd represent a powerful, hut not
dominant, element, even in Petrograd.
Russia * not an Industrial state. Ii is
primarily agricultural and the agrarian
question j. the most serious domestic
problem awaiting solution. The workmen
alone constitute a small minority. The
soldiers are more powerful, but il is clear
tina: the army a "A whole Is no. .eh,nd
the Petrograd agitators, who are them
selves divided as 10 their aims. In the
struggle for mastery, therefore, there Is
reason 10 believe hat the government will
win.
As has been said, the trouble makers
in Petrograd were not demanding a separ-
ate peace. They sought a voice in foreign
affairs, and demanded a clear statement
OF war aims of Russia and the entente.
There is no reason why these demands
should not be given, and the government,
apparently, has yielded to the demands in
this respect. Our faith in RusSia's con
tinued adherence to the alliance rests upon
the conviction that the revolution was
wisely led, that the government truly rep
~resents the Russian people. and that after
all their sacrifices they will not permit the
fight against Germany 10 20 by default.

WASTE IN MARKETING FARM
PRODUCTS.
(Houston Chronicle.l

The more one goes into the subject the
seemingly unnecessary waste which oc-
ours each season in the marketing of farm
produce throughout this section.
This IL true of every periShable crop.
Strange as 1t may appear. we have sup
phed all kinds of facilities for handling
those crops which can be taken care Of
with comparative ease, but with reference
to the truck and vegetables whose life j.
very short unless carefully protected we
have provided very little.
Ii is safe TO say that a tremendous por-
ton of the fruits. truck and vegetables
which are grown in Texas, and which
would be available for use were they pro-
perry marketed, never reach the consumer.
This, condition not only detractS from
the value of our lands and diS~courages
agriculture, but it makes for unnecessary
and dangerous fluctuations in the markets.
lateton6 1h8s earning power with acuracy
and the consumer at IA loss To know what
his expenses are going to be.
Just now we are flooded with spring
vegetables. They are both cheap and
abundant-so cheap and abundant indeed
that vast quantities of them will not be
harvested. The wastage which il bound
10 ensue will not only cerate a direct
shortage later on. but an indirect short
age as well by discouraging 30 large Il
crop.
IL provision were made for proper stor-
age and preservation of these vegetables.
not only would the farmer be benefited
by "a steadier market. but the consumer
would run much less risk of being mulcted
in the fall.
Those who are wise will take advantage
of the present low prices and will can
and preserve what they are able. but there
are many who can not do this, even though
they know it TO be wise. and for their
protection, "a well az because il il good
business sense, facilities should he pro-
vided for the conservation of these vege-
tables along general lines.
