The Annual Report of the Post
Office Department.

It is not believed by official
Washington that the report OF Post
master General Burleson for the
year 1918 will be much approved
by the country in general. He an
nounces that the Post Office De-
partment cleared $17.000,000 dur
ing that period. He has turned
over to the Secretary OF the Treas
ury check for SIS, 100000, retain
ing $2,O00,000 for a working bal
ance. Once again the question
arises as to why the postal business
should be made to show profit
and why It would not be a good idea
to spend such vast profit for the
improvement OF the postal service
and the benefit of the public

Well. that feeling will not be so
painful any more, for we are now,
merging from the backwoods and
making definite moves to the front.
Already we have the roads assured,
soon we will have the high schools,
then everything else will follow; and
if every man in the county will
drop rigl down in the harness, in
the section where he lives and pull
for the upbuilding of his section,
why within 3 or 4 short years, we
can stand at the forefront, with any
county in the state. Ii yoa can't
pull. why push, for we must come

Repeal of the government wheat
guarantee of 1926 per bushel is
being SO insistently demanded by
wheat farmers that Congress may
be asked to remove the price limi-
tation. The Senate Agricultural
Committee received thousands Of
letters from farmers, who demand
that they be allowed to sell their
wheat for whatever they can get.
They declare that the market price
would prove much higher than the
81. .26 allowed them by the Govern
ment. Many claim that the mil
lers, whose profits are not limited,
are getting at the rate Of $4.00 per
bushel for the wheat.

WILL rooD GET CHEAPER.

From the Nations Business for January
 David F. Houston, Secretary of Agri- culture, believes there will be a slow decline in prices and a reduction may be more marked in the case of agricultural products than in any other commodity
 This may result' says the secretary, from the fact that agricultural produc- tion during the war was not only main tained but extended. while industrial pro- duction for nonmilitary purposes de- CT eased in some directions, and also that Europe may recover more rapidly az rjculturally than industrially, and that the opening up of shipping will bring into the markets of Europe the products of more distant nations.
 European countries in the aggregate probably will not produce this year more than 70 per cent of their pre-war normal output: The quantities they can sec,,: e will be limited in part by their impaired ability to pay for them Obviously t~ey can devote only part of their credits % the purchase of foods and they will at tempt to obtain these in the cheapest markets"

THE AMERICAN MODEL

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 A Choctaw Indian, Otis w. Leader of Oklahoma, has been chosen by an em- inent French sculptor as model for his statue of the American fighting man" brief resume of Leaders service in France amply warrants his designa- . tion as first class fighting man" and his unmixed American blood jus tifies his selection as typical Amer ican.
 There can be no question Of Amer ica's pride in her aborigines. The In- dian, who was cordially hated by the pioneers and shamefully despoiled and exploited by the successors of the pio- neers. has become in the present gen. eration popular, honored and justly respected citizen. He has proved his merit. Since the white man has ceased to accelerate his deterioration the In- dian has ceased to be a vanishing race He has become an assertive cit izen. standing on his own feet and making his own way. And when there was war the Indian of today fought with all the courage and grim deter imitation of his painted ancestors.
 The French sculptor made a wise choice when he selected Private Leader as his type specimen of the America n soldier It is a fitting tribute to the red Americans who fought so valiantly for white civilization and no white American will begrudge the honor.

 One provides for greater revenues for Birmingham and forty-one oth- Ter cities. The other would recognize in substantial way the services of the Alabama boys who joined the lcolors to uphold the honor and dignity lof their country when assailed by the
 Huns then about to overrun Europe on their way to America.
 The legislature, during the summer session, adopted a resolution submit ting to the voters of Alabama an amendment relieving the young men who served their country in the war |of poll taxes accruing during the term lof their service and until the year 1923.

ture. During his long association with Harper's magazine he was friend and monitor to many authors who have become famous.
 Naturally the man chosen to sue ceed such a character, in a place of so much responsibility, must be inter esting. Mir. Wells is a protege of MT. Alden and may, therefore, be trusted to maintain the Alden tradition. For IF years he was associate editor of Harper's, coming from the newspaper field to take position with Harper i& Brothers at the munificent salary Iof $10 week. Promotion did not come rapidly, but the young man at tracted the attention of MT. Alden, to whom he made suggestions for ar ticles for Harper's magazine, while doing publicity work in the book de- partment and reading manuscript when the opportunity offered. In 1902 MT. Alden asked the head of the house to assign MT. Wells to the staff of the magazine, where he has remained ever since.
 Unlike his predecessor, who was a home-loving person, Mr. Wells has travelled a great deal ana enjoys a wide acquaintance among artists and writers, both in America and Eng land. He is a graduate of Yale and is vice president and secretary of Harper & Brothers. The previous editors of Harper's were Henry J. Raymond, 175O-56; Dr. Alfred H.
 Guernsey and Henry Mills Alden, who
 was editor in chief from 1869 until Ihis death
