A GREAT PEANUT CROP

With the exception Of Alabama,
Texas leads all other states this year
in production of peanuts, the total
crop for the state being estimated at
12,478,O00 bushels al increase of
5000, 900 bushels over last year The
increase for the whole country will
be 100000 bushels, estimating the
total crop at 1851 600 bushels. We
shall see whether this great supply
of peanuts from which cooking oil
can be made will have any effect on
bringing down the price of lard and
cooking greases, which are now at
the highest levels in history. Every
time the price of hogs is given new
boost, lard and cooking oil go up.
Peanuts are food for hogs and also
furnish a fine oil for cooking. If a
crop like this does not break the back
OF high lard prices then the law of
supply and demand is certainly not
in operation-Houston Post.

AN APPEAL TO GET TOGETHER

The great moral sense of the nation
favors some form of world organiza-
ton. 1t realizes that the race in
ornaments cannot go on endlessly.
1t perceives that Europe is stagger-
ing in weakness; that the war has
been for it little short of a suicide of
civilization and 1t realizes that we
are paying in social unrest, in the in
fluenza epidemic and in our own
casualties quite price for the war
method of settling the dispute which
grew out of the assassination at Sara
ievo in the early summer of 1914.
What childishness to assert that a
league is liable to involve us in Euro
pean conflict, as if the war method
was a complete prophylactic against
any such entailment.
In fine, our appeal to both sides
the president and the Republican SEN
ators-is to get together on basis of
reasonable compromise and business
adjustment. Both sides should re
member that they are Americans
first, and partisans second. We
should then need no defamation
prize contest to settle the question

WHAT MEN DO NOT CONFESS

Some things men readily confess,
and other things they do not. No one
will confess that he is a fool without
understanding; but quite the con-
trary you will hear all men saying |,
wish I had the fortune equal to my
understanding. A man will not read
lily confess that he is Incorporate !;
and that he is unjust he will not con
fess at all. He will by no means con
fess that he is envious or 0 busybody.
Most men will admit that they are
compassionate. What, then, is the
reason?/ The chief thing is incon-
stancy ana confusion in the things
that relate to good and evil. They
do not at all confess the things which
are offenses against society. -Epi-
ctetus.

NAMING THE WAR

The war department has designed
the part of the United States had in
the world conflict SIS the War OF 1917.
So far as official circles are concern
ed this settles the matter. But it is
another question as to whether or
not the name will be used by the PEG
pie generally. Time alone will answer
that.
There never has been any agree
ment on name for the conflict.
Some call it the War of Nations.
while others prefer the World War.
In the minds of many, especially
those who took an active part in the
fighting, it simply is The War and
probably will remain that through
out their lives just as many veterans
of the Civil war know that conflict
by no other name.
The chief weakness of the name
War of 1917 is that it is not COM
prehensive. The name should cover
the entire conflict. Either World
war or the War Of Nations does.

UNDER DRY LAW
IN MILWAUKEE
Federal Jury Reports One True
Bill of Beer Sales In That City
FOUR POSTAL CHARGES
In LIST REPORTED
No Cases Made Out Against Alleg-
ed Food Profiteers and Hoard
ers of That City

Ten indictments under the war time
prohibition act were returned on Fri
day by the, federal grand jury in Mil
waukee after being in session since
Tuesday morning. Nine were for the
alleged sale of distilled spirits, while
the other was for the sale of beer with
an alcoholic content of more than one
half of one per cent.

was returned in order to start a test
case on the legality of the act.
Four other indictments dealt with
alleged violations of postal acts.
No indictments were returned undet
the Lever act, which deals with pro-
fiteering and boarding.
1t is expected that the first of the
warrants for indicted parties will be
served on Saturday.
Whether the grand jury was given
evidence of alleged profiteering, could
not be ascertained from officials OF
the department Of justice.
1t is estimated that indictments for
the violation Of the wartime prohibit
ion act names persons upstate as well
as Milwaukeeans. Their names will be
announced on the serving. of the war

tice officials.
The cases of the government were

CHURCH SURVEY

mine the best manner of pooling in
terests in communities, the Rev. f.
A. Wagg has resigned his passionate

and moved to Madison for work as
supervision Of the interchurch work
in Wisconsin. He has begun a survey
of church interests.
The plan is to find communities
where certain churches can be elm
mated and the field given to the
church which has the strongest foot
hold.
Years ago we thought only Of de-
nominations said the Rev. Henry
Guy Goodsell, but today the Prostes-
tant churches have different view.
Formerly our thoughts were of de-
nominationalism.'
Mr.. Wagg will have Offices at the
