/"
The distemper that is doing
this country more harm than all
its other Affections put together
is besotted partisanship. Except
in public life, men consider and
usually agree upon matters Of
the utmost Importance without
giving thought to political as
sociations. In Congress a cQm;
mittee made up of three reppbli
cans and two democrats may be
depended upon to divide three 10
two on the simplest proposition,
We had a painful example Of
this the other day in the reports
on the aviation service. Now
the Senate Naval Sub Committee
gives us a dreary repetition of it
in its findings on the war-medal
controversy. We shall have the
same thing, no doubt, from the
scores Of Investigations that have
been III progress for months past.
Where partyism is uppermost,
facts are as hopelessly in dispute
as conclusions.
Thisis the disease that is para
lying government at a time
when there is desperate need not
only of good citizenship and wise
statesmanships but Of common
sense and common honesty. 1t
is holding up the peace. It's de
laying reconstruction. 1t is pre-
venting,the reform and reduction
of expenditure and taxation. 1t
is exposing our industry and COM
merce to serious perils. On the
question of what is black and
what is white our Legislators, vote
three to two with the expectation
that the issue will finally be set
tied at the presidential election.
No great nation can prosper'or
progress under such a system,
Somewhere and somehow men
must be found who will be at
least ordinarily intelligent and
at least commonly self-reliant.
Representative governmen n t
which is SO fixed and hardened in
partisanship as to be incapable
of decision, incapable even of
agreement on any subject, is no
government at all. ~ N Y, World.

Steel case will undoubtedly have
to be made.
The big point established in
the United States Steel case. is
that mere size of a business does
not constitute a trust and that
a large organization under proper
management may be the most
advantageous to the public. Such
q decision sets aside ignorance
and political prejudices and offers
great encouragement to expan-

CABLE SHIP TOLD
 10 OBEY WILSON
lBy United Pressl

Washington, Aug. 5.-Instructions were given by the British embassy today to the master of the British cable ship, Colonial, not to attempt to land the Western Union cable at Miami, Fla, it was announced at the embassy. President Wilson had re- fused the company permission to land the cable at Miami until the international congress on communica- tion is held at Washington in Sep tember, and it appeared possible for a time that the Colonial would land in defiance of his order.
 Permit was asked some time ago by the Western Union to land the cable, which will establish direct communi- cation between the United States and Brazil, as compared with the present system of relaying to London. Be- fore the permit should be given, the department of state asked advice as to the arrangement between the Western Union and the Western Cable, the British Company, and whether the new line would constitute a monopoly.

Contractors Relief LauD Is
Held Invalid at Greensburg

Isaac Smith, contractor for the
nearly completed Main street bridge,
was given a new contract last sum-
mer by the county council to save him
from bankruptcy, under the contrac-
tors relief law. The law was Wednes-
day held invalid by John Craig in the
circuit court at Greensburg. However
the case probably will be appealed.
Judge Craig overruled motion of
the plaintiff to strike out demurrer,
filed by the Johnson county commits
sioners, and then sustained the de-
murrer In his decision he held that
the law is institutional, because
it specifies only road and bridge work,
and excludes all other forms of coun-
ty work. 1t is therefore class legisla-
ton, according to the ruling.
The relief law was passed because
of conditions arising out of the world
war. Many contractors were unable to
do work during the conflict on con
tracts already granted them. When
the war ended many wished to be re-
lieved of their contracts, because they
had been based on a lower scale of
prices for material and labor than pre-
vailed after the signing of the arm
istice What effect the local ruling
will have on several similar cases dis
posed of by the county commissioners
here last year is not known, but it is

S25.25 PER HUNDRED

BY WILLIAM r. SANBoRN

"1f you want sugar at $25.25 per
hundred pounds, f. o. b. New York city,
wire your order and remit the money.
No sugar will be shipped until cash
is received"
This offer was received by at least
one Richmond baker Thursday, and
possibly by several dealers. There
isn't a sack of sugar in wholesale
hands in Richmond. One jobber said
that the last they put out sold at
$16.75; the next man reported $17.l5
as their latest price and added: I'VE
haven't had a sack of sugar in several
days, nor have we any in transit right
now"
The third sugar man said that he
had disposed of sugar some days age
at $3.50 and up to $3.50, the later
for southern granulated. Like the
Others he has been out of sugar for a
