HE verdict Of the country as ex.
pressed at the polls on Tuesday was for
change of administration, and the
Republicans will have full control of
affairs after the 4th of next March. We
nave no doubt that Mr.. Harding will
make an entirely safe President and
III discharge the responsibilities OF
high Office with conscientious de-
ton to his duty as he sees it. Now
al the election is over, the thing for
Sai c.izenS to do is to give proper
Suf port to the new administration
when 1t iaNes UP the reinS of office,
We Nelleve that Mr.. Harding will have
this support unless. unfortunately. he
shall allow himself to be influenced hy

WHO SAID P"ROFITEER
By Freeman Tilden

"When farmers get together and
pool their products does the consumer
suffer or is he benefited" asks Free
man Tilden, in an article in 1.-The
Country Gentleman" of March 9th.
at has been asserted that for the
average food product the consumer
paws at least three times what the pro-
Queer received says MI. Tllden.
"Yet as a result of cooperative meth
DDS among California walnut raisers,
walnuts, for which the producer gets
one dollar, cost the consumer to-day
only about S1.35."
Cooperation saved both the produc-
,er and the consumer of the 1918 Lima
bean crop, Mr.. Tilden shows. The
crop was large and at the start there
was little cooperation. The market
started to fall and dealers, fearing a
loss, refused to buy. The producer
was left with an oversupply, and the
consumer, finding few beans in the
dealers hands, was forced to pay high
prices. But a selling agency was es-
tablished, a price guaranteed the pro-
Queer and the bogy of a falling mar
ket removed, so that dealers were no
longer afraid to buy. This stabilized
condition worked both to raise the
price received by the producers and
lower that charged to the consumers.
"The consumers can bank on one
thing sure as death or taxes" says
Mr.. Tilden. cit is this: That as long
as the present haphazard methods OF
distribution are employed he must pay
several profits on the food he con-
sumes. But cooperation by the farm
ers not only assures uniform quality
of products, but reduces the middle
men to the genuine distributor"

Community Assets

The condition of the public utili-
ties has been greatly improved during
the past year, as it has been dawning
on the country that the agitation fav-
oring public ownership has been the
result of socialistic propaganda. About
SIS, 0O0, 900 representing the savings
of the people of the country is invested
in public utilities, and since a great
part of this in each community is
local capital" the utilities are rapid
ly progressing towards a basis where
they ara looked upon as community
assets, and worthy of being treated as
such, in place of being made the polit-
ical footballs of politicians eager for
power.

Keeping Up With Wilson

President Wilson asking for the res
ignation of Robert Lansing, who has
been Secretary of State since the res
ignation of William j. Bryan, four
years ago, has made a worldwide po-
litical sensation as to what is back of
it. The reason set forth is that he
called together the Presidents cabi-
net unknown to the President during
his illness, but the real cause is that
the Secretary of State has consented
to some foreign policy adverse to the
Presidents opinion.
The President is elected to admin
lister the government according to his
opinion of the law and policy. He is
is the real leader or should be of his
party, steadfast as to principles and
policies, but most Presidents have been
merely figure heads Of slow progress.
President Wilson has studied more
and knows more than any other Pres
ident since Thomas jefferson. He has
a broad, liberal and progressive mind
that has led the nation into new and
unbeaten paths OF progress, the great
est since the formation of u govern
ment. Consequently he listens, reads,
thinks and acts on his own initiative.
After the policy is decided upon he is
too impulsive to take time to look
whether it is according to old rules of
diplomacy OF to explain to those who
are learned and drilled in the old laws
and traditions. He acts on principles
as to equity and justice to fit condi-
lions always changing. That is the
reason most are slow to understand.
They cannot keep up with Wilson.
You will notice that much is made
of Traditions. Stop and think that
America was not discovered nor the
United States government, nor the re-
ligion of Americans We're not formu-
lated on Traditions, but on principles,
on statutes, ordinances and Judg-
ments made as new occasions demand
ed them.
President Wilson is grounded in the
fundamental principles of democracy
more than any living man. Notwith-
standing his illness caused by his
throwing his whole soul, mind and
body into his speeches to educate the
nation in the Peace Treaty of Yer
settles, yet his recent messages show
that his mind rings true to principles,
which so few can grasp the meaning
and import OF for the progress OF the
Nation.
During all the seven years of his
two administrations he has made no
great blunders. Good reasons have
later appeared to ignorant minds for
each move. He has proved a safe pi-
lot in the greatest storms our ship Of
State ever encountered.
Let US continue to trust Wilson. We
may not know exactly where We are
going but be assured we have a safe
pilot who has met all new occasions
true to duty and principles of democ-
racy.
Every business to be successful must
have a single-minded autocracy. De-
mocracy to be successful must have a
single-minded autocracy as much as a
monarchial autocracy.
We must study to keep up with

VICTIM Of
AMNES|A IS
IDENTIFIED

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. to.-The man
referred to as "Prof. X" suffering from
loss Of memory at LambertVllle, N. j.,
was today identified as Or. John L.
The Identification was made by his
son, Lieut.. Commander Charles l..
Brand, who Is stationed at the Phla.
delphla navy yard.
Or. Brand's home Is In Worcester,
Mass. He has been missing three years.
He was unable to recognize his son
when the latter approached him and
said, "Don't you know me, fathcr?"
Or. Brand was found destitute at
Moore's station, three miles from Lam
bertville, on Dec. "a. Since that time
he has sat In the home Of the Rev. j..
scientists with his profound knowledge
same" to a blank memory.
He reveals an astonishing knowledge
OF the law, medicine, astronomy, archl-
lecture and kindred subjects, yet ap.
parently Is unable to recall anything
except lndistlnct recoilectlons Of his
past life and events since the sinking
OF the Titanic. He Is an accomplished
musician and on several occasions has
played the organ In St. Andrews Epls-
copal church, OF which Or. 5ensIey Is
rector.
Or. Brand was first thought to be a
tramp and was confined In the Jail at
Lambertville. His unusual qualities
soon became evident and pr. 5ensIey
invited him to live the rectory.
