"Uolift" In Fiction,

Latter-day American story tellers.
most of them, seem to be in q con
spiracy to make the world better,
to touch the heart" to make you
forget all your troubles" to "exalt
life and love-" to be "a sunshine
maker" These Intentions are SO I'M
faltering. and the stress laid on clean
living" is 80 insistent, that one is
forced to ask ones self whether the
practice and theory of living In Amer.
lea are not antagonistic? whether the
exaggerated sentimental appeal may
not denote thinness Of real emotion.
and the persistent absorption with tho
moral issue an uneasy self-distrust? It
would be as ridiculous to charge tho
great American people with being less
honest with themselves than are those
of other nations az It would be to
doubt that In the land of freedom"
there is less inner freedom than else
where. But the latterday American
novel often leaves one with an I'M
easy idea that the weight and momen-
tum of American civilization are roll
ing out the paste Of human nature
very fat and are stamping 1t with ma
chine-made patterns Of too common an
order.-The Atlantic.

Industrial Casualties

From Z chart which was exhibited
by . leading insurance company Of
America ut an international exposi-
ton Of safety and sanitation, It would
follow that there are $4,000 fatal in
dustrial accidents . year IN the United
States, and about 100000 injuries.
This inspires . writer on the new
industrialism to say: The mere pos
sibility of being able to state In sta
tistics the approximate number OF our
Industrial Casualties IL step In ad-
vance, for as late a. 1909 1t WAS i'm
possible to estimate with any accu-
racy at an what was the toll we paid
in crushed limbs and snufied out lives.
Now, at least, We know how vast II
the problem to be solved. how much
needless suffering we infict and how
much We lose in dollars and cents
because we have hitherto failed to
realize tho necessity Of guarding men
q well as machines"

Chicago, July 9.-AIl deliveries OF
corn rose swiftly today to the highest
prices yet this season. Scarcity of Of
ferings became so pronounced that for
the first time the September option
went to q premium over July. Excel
lent weather conditions proved to be
only a temporary barrier to the ad-
vance which was stimulated to large
extent by a new record breaking prices
on hogs. Opening quotations, ranging
from y cent 10 i q cents off with Sep
TENDER at s1.91k TO 1872 and Decem-
Der at $780, to s1.6lA were followed
by a sharp ascent all around to well

coming higher, while December was
under pressure good crop reports
and a price which will mean the high

to get for his hrst run of new corn.
The government report does not fully
confirm private reports either as 10
acreage or indicated yield, the govern
ment forecasting 103. 100000 acres and
the probable yield OF 2,Si5,00 bushe!.
Oats-Conmission houses bought
oats in a very large way in expectation
of decided reduction in the crop
prospects in the government report as
of July /. The official figures woulc
indicate a reduction OF only $4,000, 900
bushel as compared with June !, out
the trade believes that considerable
damage has been done since that time
by the high temperatures during the
first few days of July. This belief ID
confirmed by the weekly weather ana
crop reports which shows a marked
Improvement in corn but deteriora-
ton in oats and wheat.
Provisions-Provision opened strong
with hogs and corn but weakened later
on general selling which was attr1out-
ed to stock yards interests. Hogs after
reaching new high also reacted.

wealthiest citizens decided to change
the government ''for the benefit OF
the people"
When President Wilson first came
to Europe he was fed on oyations
at all hours of the day and night.
Now he is never cheered or applaud
cd. The peace conference is not
popular In France because 1t has
been slow and because II has con-
Quoted Its business In secret. The
newspapers are censored, their best
news often marked out just before
press time, and you can imagine how
they feel about It. OF course Presi-
dent Wilson and the United States
are not to blame, but the French
people expected the Americans to
champion free speech and open
diplomacy, and do not understand
that we can do these things and be
true to our original talk.
No longer do European bands play

no throat trouble Of that kind.
Probably this is just as well for
us as we might have become a con-
ceited and self clarifying nation i'll
the early enthusiasm had been kept
to a steady pressure.
No doubt all Of this was to be ex-
pected in the light Of history. mol
nation ever went into great and
costly war with so little selfishness
in purpose as the United States. mol
nation ever came out of victorious
war, as ours has come, and had
nothing to ask for herself. Perhaps
the people of Europe are tired of us
as were the old Greeks who voted to
Danish Socrates because the public
got to praising him. There is lot

of Nations. The ~Big FourH gave
the plum to Switzerland. Belgium
had suffered and bled while Switser-
land had played safe. The Allies
had been enthusiastic over Belgium
until they had something to give out
that Belgium wanted-better than q
state fair. Then the Allies forgot
little Belgium.
That is the way the Belgians
looked Mt the case and while they
are still grateful to the United
States for flour and clothes, they
fcan't understand our desertion of
their cause.
One of the secretaries told me
that after the 35th Division left its
winter resort, the town crier went
along the street with his drum and
announced to the citizens the de-
parture of the American army, fol-
lowing 1t with an order that prices
must now be reduced one-third.
No doubt this reaction will stop
and perhaps our old friends will
once more tell us of their love. But
1t will not be until the-peace treaty
is in operation and probably not I'M
