The Food Question Many.sided

Simple explanations of the prices now
charged for food in the United States
do not explain the situation. The reason
is that combination of circumstances
has driven food prices up to an extent
that has alarmed the consumers.
There has been a panic on the sub
ject of food almost resembling a run on
a bank. The state OF our nerves was
illustrated by the rumOr which sent the
price of sugar skywards few days ago.
Word was passed from mouth TO mouth
that sugar was scarce. Hundreds of
people began to buy. In some places
pound of sugar rose to 25 cents. In
other places ii was not to be had at all
All the time there was plenty of sugar
in the warehouses. Panic has helped
speculation. Consumers have bid against
each other in the anxiety TO lay in sup
plies
There has been and there IS, undoubt-
eddy, a tendency to hold the food for
rise. As they say on State Street any
thing to eat has been a good buy" Bus
mess is business. Much money has been
made out OF what we want to eat.
II i probable that some of the demon
STATIONS in the interest OF lower prices
have been inspired by those who wish
to assist the submarine blockade by an
embargo on food such happenings are a
part Of international politics today.
The railroads have been eongested by
an immense business, BY cold weather
and the eurtailing Of exports to Europe.
Provisions have moved from one part Of
the country TO another at a snaifs pace,
Just ike other freight There j. also
a smaller supply Of food than usual in the
country. Crops have been better than
they were last summer. and we have
sent great stores abroad
The situation should improve The
i-eight- are 10 move more quickly. Spec
llstors DO not like the limelight OF gov
eminent inquiry Panic should subside

FOR REFERENDUM VOTE
On Washington License Question-Com-
mittee Favors Gould Bill.

Washington d. C., Feb. 26.The House
District of Columbia committee agreed
Saturday to substitute the Gould bill
which embodies bone dry" prohibition
but requires a popular referendum on
the subject. in place of the Senate bin
for prohibition in the national capital.
The committee adjourned to meet to-day,
under instructions to the chairman to
report the Gould bill as substitute to the
House by noon Tuesday.
The rules committee majority, with
whom responsibility has been left as to
when TO report the rule TO discharge the
District of Columbia committee from fur.
Their consideration OF the bill, and to pro-
vide immediate consideration for it in
the House, has not determined when TO
precipitate the fight, but may decide to
bring il up to-day
Prohibition advocates in the House will
oppose any change whatever in the Ian
guage or form of the bill as it passed the
Senate, even TO voting against the bone
dry substitute, on the ground that any
change would defeat final action by this
Congress.

FRANK B. SANBoRN DEAD.
Abolitionist, Historian, Editor and Re-
former, Last Link of Civil War Days.

Boston, Feb. 26,-Franklin B. Sanborn
widely known as the Sage of Con
cord'--author, editor, historian, aboli-
zionist, sociologist and reformer, died
Saturday at Westfeld, n. j., where he
went few weeks ago to visit relatives.
He was SO years of age. Funeral ar
rangements have not yet been completed.
With his passing, the last link was
severed between that period of philoso-
ply and culture in Concord made noted
by such Intellectual citizens as Emerson,
Thoreau, Alcott, Ebenezer Hoar, Margar-
ct Fuller and Charles A. Dana and the
present day.
Editor of the Boston Commonwealth
during the days of the Civil war and for
many years contributing editor to the
Springfield Republican, Mr.. Sanborn had
as his intimates many of the most noted
men and women of New England and of
the country. He wrote biographies of
several of these more than intimate
friends, among them Thoreau and Alcott.
He was born in Hampton Falls, N. FL,
son of DR.. Sanborn, upon a farm which
had been owned by his family ever since
the Indians gave it to Rev. Stephen
Baehiler. grandfather of John Sanborn,
who settled in Hampton in 1888.

Gneral Sporting Notes.

Two great topics which are being dis
cussed around the Stove Pipe league these
daysi Can the Red Sox again win the
title, and who will beat the Giants?
The Giants have the strongest team Of
hitters in the game to-day, with Burns,

Holke, Mccarthy and Fletcher.
Coach Slattery of the Tufts baseball
team has called out his entire squad of
outfielders and infelders, and they were
given their first practice of the season
Saturday afternoon ut the Tufts cage.
Despite the stories which are going
around about the wonderful condition of
Jesse Willard, those with the inside dope
on the giant fighter claim that he weighs
nearly 300 pounds and that his muscles
are all gone and his arms soft and flabby
If this is the case, it would take him
several months to work into condition.
Arthur Nehf, southpaw on the Braves
roster, telegraphed the Boston National
management Saturday that the terms
originally sent him were satisfactory
and asked them to mail the contract
which he sent back few days ago and
that he would write hiss ignature on 1T.

terms and gave a time limit for them to
accept it.

with 80 and "Alec" scored 50. Some
control for pitching stars. Bender is
reckoned as one of the best shots in the
country to-day and probably the best
shot in ballplayers' circles.
Saturday it was stated in sporting
circles that Gov. Whitman of New York

legislation Immediately putting a stop
to all boxing bouts in that state, let it
be known at Albany Friday that he

Prning boxing should be repealed, the
repeal becoming effective Jan. next.

Red Cross Notes.

With every department of our Am
erican government working with full
force and many overtime, we ask our
selves this question as loyal, patriotic
citizens. What can | do to help the
cause of suffering humanity in this
chastity war? Thousands of Ameri-
can doctors, nurses. soldiers and ma
rines are on the soil of France today
and many are going to help build up
devasted districts, fill in the depleted
ranks of worn out soldiers, care for
the wounded and helpless and depend
cnts. The question is answered IN
four words-Join the Red Cross. That
means YOU. The National society is
depending on the work and results
of the local and smaller societies who
are contributing materials, garments
readv for immediate use in hospitals,
bandapes of which there is pltlful
need, and an inexhaustable supply is
urCed and necessary at once. Come
and ioin YOUR local society, bring your
old clean white clothes or linens and
sew a while. 1t will make you feel
| +brillv to use your needle and know
| that the garments on when you are
nutting your labor will perhaps oe
worn by a boy whose mother loves
him lust as much as you do your, boy,
but perhaps does not even know
where he is or how sorcly he needs

Will Get a Commission.

Geo. D. Alvers, a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. C. C. Alvers of Sisco, this coun-
ty, is holding himself in readiness for
the new army, in which he has been
promised a commission, likely as lieu
tenant. Mr.. Alvers expected to go
into the regular training camp for
officers, but Secretary of War Baker
writes that he will not need the train
ing.
Young Alvers had six years eXpe-
ricncc in the regular army as a mem
Der of the Fourteenth Cavalry, and
when the Secretary of War looked up
his record, it was found to be with
out a flaw. Geo. Alvers was born
on the peninsula, in Putnam county
and after graduation from the COM
mon schools attended John B. Stct-
son University, DeLand. Then he
went into the army, serving most OF
his six years in the west.
