LABOR IN POLITICS.

T. c. Tabor, in his newspaper, the
Donnelison Review, thus sums up afte,
giving a comprehensive report Of the
labor-farmer meeting recently held in
Keokuk:
1t is not only the right but the
duty of labor to organize: without
organization they would be at the
mercy of capital; and it is like
wise the duty of the farmer to or
ganize in order to secure their
share of the fruits of their toll:
in recent years, however, as is
now recognized and admitted bv
the leaders of organized labor.

country, has crept in and is grad

short time knows not how TO
acQuit himself"
Moral: Shun the devil. Seri-
ously, the most learned society of
the sixteenth century was per-
meated with creaality, and while
capable OF recording accurately
the truths OF the christian reli.
gion, was unable TO shake off
many horrible beliefs in no wise
justified by biblical text--even
down to the time when our own
New England believed in witches.
In these latter and better days
since Missouri has got on the
intellectual map with its show
me- comprehension OF and de-
mand for evidence, we still have
much credulity in religious mat
tiers. Indeed, the mere subject OF
religion seems at once to open
the minds Of many people TO be-
lieve the most unreasonable
things. We see this fact con-
stantly demonstrated in scores
of new religions, and new Off
shoots from old religions, usually
originating in a purpose to afford
their leaders an easy living or
other financial profit without
work.
But with all the credulity and
loose thinking of these times, the
best religious teachers of today
lead US to the pure and refresh
ing atmosphere of right living.
The essentials are at the front
now. Conduct is what counts.
The churches are schools in
which the proper application of
sound principles to every day
life is taught. No longer IS that
hymn of horror beloved by the
stern Pilgrim Fathers, which ran
as follows, sung:
For in the land where darkness
dwells,
The lands of heaven and de-
spair,
Justice hath built dismal hell
And laid her stores Of ven
geance there.
Eternal plaques and heavy chains,
Tormenting rocks and fiery
Goals,
And darts to infiict mortal pain,
Dyed in the blood of damned
souls.

say today: Il often think if /
could be so fxt as never to laugh
nor to smile / shud be won step
better; it fills me with sorrow
when / see people so full of laf
and of pirate" On the contrary,
the religion of the twentieth CEN
fury is one of smiles, JOY, cheer
fulness and happiness. 1t is bet
ter so. Erring credulities and
cruelties have given way to a
better conception of what life on
earth should be, with the
churches in the lead. The phil
osophy and theology Of pure hap
piness now rules, God be praised.

HoEING AND HOLLERING.

The master of the National Grange declare:
that agriculture, the basic and indispensable
industry of the country, is not flourishing, anc
that under existing conditions, and as long az
they continue, the farmers of the nation must
In spite Of their best efforts produce less food
ia proportion to their members and the need
for food than ever before. "Whlle the farmer
is hoeng' says this acute observer, the la
boring class is hollering;'' and he might have
added with equal truth that while the farmer
Is working twelve or fourteen hours day,
compelled to do so by the difficulty OF securing
help, the city laboring classes as rule have, as
compared with former conditions, a sixteen
hour wage, an eight-hour day and a six-hour
output.
Anybody who fails to see that this state Of
affairs makes greatly and directly for con-
tinued scarcity and abnormal costlness Of
every indispensable of life, does not see far.
And this is a condition which legislation is i'm
potent to change. All the laws that were en-
acted would not bring down the cost of scarce
commodities. When needful things are few and
many are bidding for them, the long purse car
ries them home and the short purse goes with
out Economic laws grind together like the
1lllstones Of fate, superseding and overriding
all laws that man can make. America is work

increase in sugar consumption was
/ u per cent, the difference hardly
accounting for the unusual demands
of last year for canning purposes.
Evidently then the United States, il
isolated from the rest of the world,
is producing enough sugar to bring
its per capita consumption within n
fraction Of what it was when sugar
sold at 5 cents pound.
The other side of the situation con-
Germs both production ana consump-
ton in Europe. The damage cone
to the agricultural resources in the
beet producing regions overrun py
the German armies cannot yet be de-
termined. Four out OF Belgium's
sixty-nine factories were destroyed
and others were dsmantled France
had 206 factories in operation before
the war. Last year there were fifty
seven in operation. The factories of
Germany which derived their supplies
of raw beets from Poland and Russia
are not producing as they did before
the war because they cannot procure
the raw material from abroad and
must depend on home supplies
Neither Poland nor Russia is produc-
ing beets as they did in peace times.
The sugar factories of Russia are IN
volyed in the industrial demoraliza-
ton of that country and their out
put is negligible. Commenting on
the European sugar production Ques.
ton a recognized authority says:
THE great sugar industry formerly
within the central powers has pro-
dueed barely enough for the needs OF
their own people, and since the arms.
tice has produced no exportable mar
gin"
Evidently the drain on the A,neri-
can supply then is that required for
the allies, France, England. Belgium.
and for the neutrals. But France and
Belgium are producing enough for
their own consumption and consider
able for export, though not quite as
much as before the war. The produc-
ton of raw sugar in other countries
has increased, thereby reducing this
production deficit. This does not
swing the proportionate available
supply back to the place it was when
sugar was at its lowest price, but it
does not increase the consuming de-
mands over production six or eight
times, as the price of 80 or 40 cent
sugar would indicate. There must
naturally be an increase correspond.

FORTY CENT SUGAR.

Sioux City Journal: The tentative
announcement of 30 or 40-cent sugar
lis preposterous. II is not likely the
retailer can avoid that price. he
must sell On the basis of the price
he must pay. But such prices are
little short of public robbery on the
part of those who are responsible for
them The contention that prohibit
tion is responsible for the shortage
is not founded in fact. According TO
Willett & Gray, the well known sugar
authorities, the consumption Of sugar
of all kinds in the United States in
1919 was 4.067,671 long tons, as
against 3,350,355 tons in 1910 The
increase in consumption in that de.
cade is only slightly above the In
crease in population. The increase in
population was 16 per cent. and the
