Chicago, Aug. 5.-Threatenings OF
war between the allies and Russia,
with consequent prospective in
creased demand for American food
stuffs, had bullish effect today on
grain, especially wheat. New set
backs in foreign exchange, however,
tended to make export business taf-
ficult, and it was said the British
royal commission was still holding
off as buyer. Pit trading in future
deliveries here was only of moderate
volume, heavy margins being re-
quired owning to recent wild fluctua-
tons. Opening prices. which varied
from 3 u cents decline to cents ad-
vance, with December at 1928 to
S2.32 and March at s2.29h to 1921,
were followed by q general upturn
that, in some cases, went 61h cents
above yesterdays finish.
Gables {ointing to greet tension
between England and Russia led to
further sharp price advances later,
but in no radical enlargement of the
pit dealings. The market closed
nervous. 10 to II cents net higher,
with December at $40 to s2.4o1s and
March s2.42.
Corn.
Corn rose with wheat and as a re-
suit Of dry weather and car short
age. After opening Il cent of to *
cent up, including September at
SLAP to SLAB and December at $1.2sEs
ITO S1.24, the market scored a decided
advance all around.
Subsequently crop damage reports
as well as war developments brought
about greater advances in price
Outsiders bought corn much more
freely than wheat. The close was
unsettled 2A tn SIS cents net higher,
with September, at s14S to $1.4SA
and December at s1.26% to $1.26B
Oats.
Oats were firm sylnpathizing with
other grains. The market opened un-
changed to IS cent lower, September
at 70A to II cents, and then made
substantial gains.
Provisions.
Trading in provisions was very
slow. Values responded only slightly
to strength in<cereals and in the hos
market.

explains the small set of fruit OBJ

Use Cocoanut Oil Hair
For Washing

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what YOU
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp. makes the hair brittle. and
is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanur

than anything else you can use for
shampooing. as this can't possibly
injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The

Federal Interference Should Be Pro.
vided AGAINST

There may be conditions in the
West such that Federal control of
the water resources of State are
advisable for the proper development
and conservation Of such resources.
or il may be that certain interests
would have il SO appear. Be that as
II may We much question the adyis-
ability OF Federal interference with
the waters within the State OF Maine
except in 50 far as the management
Of those may affect navigation.
II would not seem. in view Of the
recen, experiences had with Federal
interference and acknowledgement
necessary TO argue against ABSORB
ton by the national government of
the rights and responsibilities of the
State. Il may De we'll. however. to
cite an instance, bearing as il does
on this question Of Federal control Of
our waters. Over On the ST. Croix
large cotton manufacturing concern
wished to erect a big power house on
the American side of the river. OF
course on those waters under inter-
national control il was necessary TO
obtain from the international Com
mission permission TO do this. APP
plication was made for this permits
sion. but after waiting nine months
and not being able TO receive atten-
ton the concern proceeded to erect
the mill on the Canadian side Of the
river.
We do not believe that sort Of
MANAGEMENT is either desirable or
necessary in the control Of Maine
waters. Our representatives in Con-
gress should. we think, give this
matter immediate attention, as there
IS a likelihood that the measure will
soon become a law. II the Federal
Government has neither need nor
purpose to interfere with our State
waters except as they may actually
affect navigation why have a law
under which il would be compelled
10 interfere?

II il a very mid restriction COM
pared with those in some States.
Massachusetts, for instance. has a
law which absolutely forbids the set
ting Of such . fre between March
and December 1. without a permit
from duly constituted authorities,
with a few exceptions. such as the
burning Of rubbish on pioughed land
by owners thereof. or upon sandy
land or marshes In every case that
law provides that the fire shall be at
least 200 feet from any sprout or for
est land and At least fifty feet from
any building and shall be properly
attended until extinguished.
The mischief which may be quick
~ done by a grass fire is understood
by the experienced. but there are
many who lack, through youth or
other reason. a knowledge Of the
rapidity Of such a blaze. They should
be instructed and cautioned. A few
days ago a resident OF a Massachu
set.s town was hailed into court and
required to pay damages because he
set a brush fire in his yard without
permit and it got away from him. A
few days later a carelessly thrown
match OF cigarette started a grass
fire on Commonwealth Avenue in the
heart Of Boston and it quickly spread
and burned fence before extin-
guished.

Currency. The Senate cannot be
unfair TO any man without reaping

TO him in holding up his appointment
for about year. The Sun and New
York Herald holds no brief for Mr.
Williams, but does hold a decided
brief for the square deal for Mr..
Williams as for every one else.

Collapse Inevitable.
(Portland EXpreSs)

The signs Of the times point to a
serious if not disastrous split in the
Democratic party. In fact its leader
during the last seven years has left
nothing undone TO make the split
certain and the collapse inevitable
The program of President Wilson
has violated many if not all the ira
ditions Of the Democratic party
wiIled and devised by Jefferson,
Jackson and Cleveland.
President Wilson's political philos-
ophv as evidenced by his unmistaka-
BILE leanings toward Government So
cialism, New Freedom, New For
eign Policy. and Internationalism, in
dicates the wide departure of the
modern Democratic party from its
former moorings.
The debate in the last hours Of the
treaty covenant conclusively proves
that the Democrats are not only d.
vided but sick of the leadership
which has plunged the party into a
hopeless morass.
The Jackson Day dinner brought
the split 10 the surface. Mr.. Bryan
and President Wilson now are en-
gagged in 4 struggle within the party
which bids fair to eventuate in an
unreconcilable split.
President Wilson signed the rail-
road bill. Mr.. Bryan favors the Gov
eminent ownership of railroads.
President Wilson by his signature
of the railroad bill pronounced him
self in favor Of Federal Capitalization
of railroads. Mr.. Bryan savors state
resumption of powers.
President Wilson demanded ratifi-
cation of the treaty-covenant with
out amendments or serious reserya-
tons. Mr.. Bryan demanded ratifica-
ton with the Lodge reservations, be-
cause the majority SO wi,led.
The temperance question Is divid-
ing the Democratic party. and Mr..
BRYAN threatens to split the National
convention on this issue. President
Wilson approved the eighteenth
amendment. but vetoed the Volstead
bill
All the Democratic leaders realize
the dangerous situation Of the party.
but acknowledge their he pelessness.
i neg are IcAHE az
current like chips and driftwood.
Personal ambitions ami personal
interests are playing an important
part. President Wilson is the nomi-
nal head of the party vet is repud-
lated by an increasingly large pro-
portion of his former followers.
The idea that the President at the
last moment may come out as can
didate in order to vitalize his treaty
issue, will not down. The
apparent failure of the party to come
anywhere near an agreement on the
other candidates. adds to this idea
II President Wilson becomes
Mr.. Bryan will, fight him
on the third term issue, and will be
able to point out the lone term"
plank of the Democratic convention
Of 1912.
II the President does not run he
will insist upon a candidate who will
stand for his treaty-covenant pro-
gram. Under present conditions. it
will be counting defeat for the Demo-
cratic party to put up a candidate
favoring the treaty without

and rejecting him give its reasons
for so doing. Il Mr.. Williams is a
fit man for the job the Senate has
no excuse whatsoever for not con-
drming him: if he is not a fit man
for the job the Senate should say so.
and tell the country why he is rot a
fit man for the JOB.
Il is a fact, We believe. that the
record of Mr.. Williams as Comptrol-
Ter is the best taken as a whole, OF
any man who has ever held the Office
of Comptroller. The question at is
sue, however. is not whether he has
been the best or the worst Comp
troller but enc of his getting a square
deal from the great United States
Senate. That he is not getting a
square deal from the great United
States Senate is certain.
