enacted its law last winter, there have
been no two states in the union that
had laws near enough alike so that

LET IT GO, DROP IT."

He delivered quite a speech in
tins Office the other day, did reader
OF this paper, on the League of Ma d.
tions and other things growing out
of the Great War, the gist of which
speech was, "lct the whole blamed
thing go. Drop it, forget it. Let's get
back to our pre- war condition, and
1--we In peace, and let the peoples
across the water manage their own
affairs, to suit themselves. Lets y,
out and stay out"
No doubt many others have felt
about that way. There has developed
so many unpleasant conditions, so
many and so violent disturbance.
as an aftermath of the war, so MANY
possibilities yet before us, that the
temptation is the want to wash our
hands of this whole business. pc,
back to our peaceful, quite pre-war
conditions. The trouble is that Tin.
rest of the world is not in Il nro-
war condition. Our prc-war condit-
ION was based upon the prc-war con-
dition of the rest of the world. and.
as the New York Times points out.
the prewar condition of the rest of
the world no longer exists our part
of it cannot either"
The same conditions which forced
us into the war, recurring, would
force us in again, and such Il con
dltion would inevitably occur, sooner
or later, and in self defense we
would be forced to take up arms. So
long as such graspng, conscience
less nation as Germany exists CT
earth just so long will their be wars
and disturbances, and every war in
Europe Is certain to involve us. MS
every war there has from Napolcons
day down to this last war. Without
the assistance, or at least the moral
support of the United States il IS
certain almost that the peace cannot be
kept in Europe in anything like a
satisfactory manner, and hence we
must face the present situation now
or run the risk of having worse and
direful conditions thrust upon us. But
for our participation in the great
war, too long postponed, the Ger
mans would be masters of Europe and
of the United States also.
The only method SO far devised
by which cooperation of all the ma
tons is secured, is the League of
Natlons-an international agreement.
we cannot drop out and go back to
prewar conditions if we wanted to.
And we don't want to. We are big
enough and great enough to live in
tirely within our selves. We are too
big and too great to wish to do so.

Editor The Clinch Valley News:

Editor The Clinch Valley News:
Sir, The high cost of living is
now measured by the capacity for
earning, rather than by dollars and
cents, although the latter enters into
the equation, yet the cost of labor has
virtually impaired the purchasing
power of money. If, with the pro-
ceeds of his days work, the laborer
can buy the same amount az flour
and bacon that he did under the old
wage scale, when the price of these
commodities was Just one-third of
what it is now, the changed con-
dition does not effect him. OF course,
the man who made his money when
prices were low is at serious dis
advantage, unless he can place his
accumulated means on an earning
basis.
The kick, however, in these days
of soaring prices is against the met
hods of the profiteer, who, by the
way, seems to be the creature of
abnormal conditions. During the past
two years and half many have
grown vastly rich by system that
IS out of all proportion to fairness.
Then there is another class that Ii,
closely allied to the profitcr, those

lily understand that there must be n
balanced ration between the commo-
dities they sell and what they buy,
and it is to be dissolved that they
complain OF the high price of the
latter pocket the money, and buy but
little. They thus forestall trade and
taffic by boarding the money they
get, diverting it from the channels
Of circulation. Then there is the re-
tail merchant who is daily climbing
with prices. Notice has been circu-
lated that the "next sugar" will be
sold for 20 cents When reminded
that such price would come under

natly snaps his finger.

WILL 1T REACH TAZEWELL?

In New York City fresh beef and
pork is selling at prices ranging from
cents to 80 cents according to thu
kind and cut ordered. Lamb, from 3
cents to IA cents. Equally low prices
are quoted in San Francisco, and
along the Pacific Coast. Hogs dropp
ed to $500 in Chicago last week
and cattle and sheep dropped also.
Still lower prices are predicted by
the stock market men. One reason
for the slump, as stated WAS that
people had curtailcd buying of pork
and beef recently, and that thou
sands Of hogs had accumulated in
the stock yards, with thousands o.
others still on the farms y furLn
slump is predicted.
Attorney General Palmer saws that
downward turn in prices generally
is beginning in different parts of til.
country, which he hoped would con-
tinue until prices reached something
like q normal condition.
Wild, hysterical buying is respon-
sible largely for high prices. Buy
ing the highest priced stuff, with
out, in most cases, even inuuiring
the price, will make high prices ai
all times.
Will the decline in meat prices
reach Tazewll? 1t is to be hoped so.
il New York and other high priced
markets can sell tice steak, chops
etc. at an average of less than -
cents, it does look unreasonable that
we should be charged twice as much.
