Without Sordid Cash

An interesting development of the campaign fund investigation, though taking the investigators into somewhat foreign field is the fact that the democratic congressional campaign managers have had the government printing office and the free use mails dissemination of 13OO000 copies of democratic speeches Thus, may be accounted part the Irregularities of the postal service of which have all been complaining.
 It is true that Representative Flood who made an admission that the democrats making of the facilities of the printing office and the mails coupled with his admission statement that his com
 itee was pledged pay about $5 900 for this service the experience of most printers and pub- fishers if campaign matter is not uaid for in advance it Is not subsequently, paid for. It is their experience that a rule has generally been tablshed by publishers requiring payment advance such matter, though they might extend almost unlimited credit to the same persons commercial printing. can hardly believe that the obligation the government printing office ever would have been met or heard of but for the development of it of the investigation.
 The country, we may imagine, may be thankful that the administration railroads tele phone and the telegraph taken from the federal government or the trains and wires would have broken under the intensity of the national democratic campaign.
 A campaign so conducted-wth everything free is course attended by minimum outlay of sordid cash There is no great burden on anybody. is evenly distributed the whole electorate that the people not know it is there. They are "cor- rupted" they it, and vile cash figures in the proceedings
 Under the old system the expenses of a campaign were met by a comparatively few of the members of each party. Under this system the weight like the gentle dews of heaven descends upon alL demo- crats republicans alike. We admit that it does not seem right make republican taxpayers pungle for democratic campaign. then, what don't know, don't hurt us" and in this would not have known and would been hurt if it hadn't been for this nosy Investigating committee.

The Wets and Governor Cox

There probably no more of a foundation for the charge that the brewing and distling interests contributing to the democratic national campaign fund than there the foolish accusations Cox is making concerning the origin and magni- tude of the republican fund. Judging though from the past performances of the brewers and the dis illers and the position of Governor Cox in Ohio for the last four could have doubt that if the ~ets were making campaign contributions this year, Governor Cox would be the beneficiary.
 But see no reason why the vets should invest in campaign now why they should part with real money unless by a sense of gratitude. There is nothing in the present situation that be converted into service for them. governor Cox, president could their departed in- dustries. He might president fail to veto a measure amending repeating the present rigid depreciation of the eighteenth amendment but pro- bably president would fnterpose a veto of any legislation bearing prohibition. President Wilson it is true, vetoed the Vostead but President Will is rather outside the of presidents. Beside that, his veto sop American Federation of Labor to please which another president would probably not go far out Of his way.
 The accusation. though that the vets have con tributed the Cox fund a very natural one to make. it probably would have been made ex- cep reJoinder to the governors wild charges It could be made with appearance of plausfbnity and no doubt thousands who familiar with events in politics within the last four years will accept the accusation well founded
 There are certain undisputed facts: Tn 1912 when the republican party was divided, Cox was elect cd governor Two years later, though the party was st divided but less sharply, with James R. Garfield a progressive candidate receiving something more 6oo00 votes. Frank B. Willis defeated Governor Cox for reelection by plurality of more than 8ooOO

PRINCE HAS GILDED BATH

Law proceedings in Paris have re- vealed the existence of a prince who uses a gilded bath. He having failed to keep up an allowance which he had undertaken to make to one Mile Bre- sil, she levied a distress on a house occupied by him in the Rue Copernic and seized various articles, including the gilded bath. The prince, however. is married, and he maintains that the furniture belongs to his wife and is therefore not liable to seizure for his debts. The court has ordered the bailiffs to stay their hand until the ownership of the furniture is estab- lished so that, for the present at any rate. the prince can continue to enjoy his bath.-London Daily Mail.

EVENING
By Edmund Vance Cooke

What seemed a green and golden globe Assumes sombre husk, AS earth slips on an outer robe
 Of twilight trimmed with dusk. The forest hastes across the mist
 To meet the dropping sky, Until his bearded lips have kissed
 Her pallor. ere they die. The last, sad shadows sigh away
 And scatter wide and far, As night steals on the gasping day
 And stabs her with a star And through the air a piping throb
 Forever trembles on, That mournful low. symphonic sob
 Which blinds the dusk to dawn.

RETAIN POLICY
FIXING PRICES
For Wheat, Potatoes And Other Basic
Food Commodities In Germany
Despite Farmers Opposition.
Associated Press

BERLIN, Mar, 1.-THE German
government has decided to retain
throughout the coming harvest year
it's policy Of fixing prices for wheat,
potatoes and other basic food com
modities, despite strong opposition by
the farmers. At the same time it
has announced that the minimum
prices which may be demanded for
these food supplies will be increased
by 100 percent for wheat and 800 per
cent for potatoes. These advances are
intended as a partial concession to
producers, to allow for the reduced
purchasing power of German money
and the increased cost Of production
Under the new scale Of minimum
prices wheat is fixed at not less than
1000 marks a ton, potatoes at 800
marks a ton, rye 900 marks, barley
and oats 800 marks. This fixing Of a
minimum price is a reversal from the
former procedure when maximum
prices were fixed. Producers had op-
posed the maximum price system on
the ground that it failed to provide
for the general increased cost Of pro-
duction
Farmers also vigorously opposed
continuance of the governments pol
icy of fixing prices and yainly at
tempted to have the free trading sys-
tenn restored. The government, act
ing through the Economic Council, in
sisted that the price fixing was nee
essary because the food situation con-
tinues precarious and because Ger
many is obliged to rely upon her own
production until the country is placed
IN a better position for buying in for
eign countries.
The government cited as evidence
of probable disastrous results if con-
troll Of prices were removed, the fact
that when oats we're released for free
trading they sold in the open market
at 4,4OO marks ton while wheat
was fetching 500 marks a ton
