It is a broad, shallow, muddy river. at places the channel being bare ly wide enough for the boat to go through, though to my inexperienced eyes the whole river looks like caan- nel. The bottom lands, Illinois on one side and Missouri on the other, are sometimes oVergrown with forests and sometimes great rich cornfields, with here and there a house. here and there villages, and now and then d little town. At every such place all the peo pie of the neighborhood have gathered to greet me. The water front of the towns would be filled with a dense packed mass of men. women and child ren, waving flags. The little villages have not only their own poplation, but also the farmers who have driven in in their wagons with their wives and children from a dozen miles back-just such farmers as came to see you and the cavalry on your march through Iowa last summer.
 It is my first trip on the Mississippi and 1 am greatly interested in it. How wonderful in it's rapidity of movement has been the history of our country compared with the history of the old world. For untold ages this river had been flowing through the loneIy con tinent, not very greatly changed since the close of the Pleitocene. During all these myriads of years the prairie and the forest came down to it's banks The immense herds of buffalo and the elk wandered along them season after season. and the Indian hunters on foot or in canoes trudy yed along the banks or skinned the water.

A Basis of League Voting

 Now we have never regarded the voting engagement provided in the inimcaI to us It was hedged about by other provisions that nothing could be imposed upon by league with out our consent. The only danger, if was any, lay in the possibility that representatives in the league might betray even in such an event, we would do pleased about it. So we have never regarded that reservation as essential especially since it calculated irritate if not Great Britain it's dominions
 But 1t appears to have irritated he British premier into an extraordinary agument against the hJustice or the reservation, into comparison IS invidious to us He said that Australia made a much heavier sacrifice than United States and was therefore, surely entitled to an equal voting power
 We were not aware that the extent of sacrifice was the basis fixed voting in the learue If so the vote of France should be heavier than that of Great Britain; greater than the vote of both Great Britain and the United States

 The first part of my trip up to the time that we embarked on the river at Keokuk was just about in the ordinary style. I had continually to rush out to wave at the people at the towns through which the train passed. If the train stopped anywhere I had to make a very short speech to several hun dred people who evidently thought they liked me, and whom I really liked but to whom I had nothing in the world to say At Canton and Keokuk went through the usual solemn fes- tivitfes-the committee of reception and the guard of honor, with the open carriage, the lines of enthusiastic fel- low-citizens to who bowed continual iy right and left, the speech which in each case I thought went on rather better than I dared to hope-for I felt as if I had spoken myself out. When l got on the boat, however. times grew easier. l still have to rush out con- tinually, stand on the front part of the deck. and wave at groups of people on shore, and at stern-wheeI steam boats draped with American flags and loaded with enthusiastic excursionists. But l have a great deal of time to my self. and by gentle firmness I think I have succeeded in impressing on my good hosts that I rather resent alio- pathic doses of information about shoals and dykes, the amount of sand per cubic foot of water. the quantity of manufactures supplied by each river town, etc.

 When service of the government any capacity might reasonably be compelled to do all he had undertaken and he might rea- sonabiy be compelled remain his post until the government could replace him.

 It is growing policy the government let employers and employees engage long drawn fights to the loss inconvenience of the public. If the government by compulson is going prevent such fights compulsion against both sides?

THE PAPER SHORTAGE

All this talk in the daily pa IpSrs about a white paper
 famine in this country is not bunk. And neither is the fact that the white paper upon which newspapers are printed is selling for exactly four times as much today as it did four years ago. In fact, the big pa- pers have not made the situ- ation half as serious as it really is.
 Today the big dailieS are forced to cut the number Of pages in each days paper, be- cause the paper mills have an- nounced that more papcl is be- ing used every four wees than all the mills cor1biiled can turn out in five weeks. So it will be seen that at tl.at rate the end of the supply had to be reached sometime. So tho big papers are cuttilig off pages, and most of them are advancing their advertising rates in the hope that the merchants will use smaller ads thus enabling them to issue smaller papers.
 The famine is keenly felt by weekly papers, too, and within the past six weeks many of them in various parts of the country have been forced to suspend. They couldn't raise their subscription price and get it. They didn't want to be &C., cused of grabbing" by doub ling ad rates so they quit business. The white paper up on which this issue is printed costs us exactly four times what it cost in 1914 but we have not asked four times the price of our 1914 subscription. Neither have we raised ad rates to four times the old scale. Yet, it would be equit- able to do so, if we figured our business from a cOld-bloOded business standpoint. We can struggle on until the famine is relieved if we get the .advel- Using we should have. We can discount paper bills, if you keep your account with US paid up that we may always have on hand the cash to do it with. Otherwise, the paper problem is going to find us in dire straits, and with no other alternative but to regulate prices in proportion to costs.
