IRREGULAR PRICES
FOR HOG PRODUCTS
Market Feverisil and Nervous-Final
Shows Net Gains-Receipts
100000.

The market for hog products was feverish
with nervous and irregular price changes
EARLY In the day there was further selling
OF lard, which resulted in moderate re-
action from the previous close, but sub
seQuently the entire list developed firm
ness. Final prices were somewhat below
the high point of the session, but showed
small net gains. The technical position
was apparently stronger as q result OF re-
cent selling, although the cash position
was quiet and hogs were easier. Receipts
of hogs for the day were 101 900 at Western
points, including 2s.o00 at Chicago, 5000 at
Kansas City and 1000 at Omaha

Mothers dread for their children TO go out
into the world. Travel is supposed TO be
'oosenng TO morals. Staying at home and
walking the daily treadmill has a reputation
Of being the best way to stay good
AS "A matter of fact, the only real good
thing in the world is humanity all of il.
Goodness is quality that inheres in the
general mass. When you fence off a section
of folks and fancy you are going TO raise
the moral tone, you are mistaken. BY and
by somebody always has TO break down the
fence and rescue the elect TO keep them from
cutting one another's throat.
One reason, perhaps the main reason,
why the medieval world was so bloody and
harsh was that il was utterly provincial
They had in those days few means of travel.
Each community lived TO itself, had its own
first, they were dirty. They were brutal.
Their only outlet for enthusiasm was war,
which was carried on as a steady business,
of which the king or duke was general
manager. They drove the sick and insane
out into the woods. The sport of the no
bility was 10 ravage among the common
people. They tortured witnesses in court
and roasted heretics before the church door,
They were naturally visited with terrible
pests. Cholera, red death, and black death
ragged People died like flies.
They were ignorant They were super
stitious. They not only did not know the
things that are true, but they knew an
ocean Of things that are not true
What has cured all this has been, largely,
travel. Giving the Reformation, the Rennais-
sance, and the rise Of Science full credit

Steam and Printing.
Railroads have done more 10 break down
not only the physical but the moral bar
rers between men than any other single
agency Worldwide commerce is surer
guaranty Of worldwide disarmament than
all the peace conferences and pacts. 1t is
the ocean liner that has rendered pirates
impossible and flooded Europe with Amerl-
can ideas.
Add TO this the printing press, which
brings libraries and newspapers and the
thoughts of all past ages and of all far
countries home TO the smallest hamlet.
This unifying of all humankind softens,
refines, elevates each part. There Is, no
salvation for any one individual nor for any
one nation. The only possible salvation Is
for the whole world.
Whoever made this human race intended
to make any sort of dog-in-the-manger cul-
ture, religion or health impossible
Steamboats, and locomotives are the shut
ties weaving the ethics Of the future that
shall depend on no church, no class, nor
sect, nor any segment of humanity, but
upon the WIDE universal instincts and emo
tons and thoughts of all.
Missionaries going to China and Chinese
students coming to American schools are
building wiser than they know.
The steam and roar and rattle, the many
cargoes on the seven seas, the scream Of
racing express trains, the snowstorms Of
paper from the unwearied presses-all ara
busy at the gigantic moral and spiritual
enterprise of getting humanity together.

In 70 Woodrow Wilson
BY X. +. PAINE

Woodrow Wilson has another opportunity to do
great thing as leader of the American people, in be-
half of the American people, and thereby make
glorious pathetic close to his career as president
1t is to remove the league of nations covenant as
an issue in the national campaign, and thus enable
the people to intelgently and decsively pass upon
pressing domestic issues.
There is still time for him to present treaty with
the nations with which America made war that
would be speedily ratified by the senate. He Is stone
blind if he cannot now that such is American
timent that neither this senate nor the senate to
come will ratify any treaty without reservations
fully protecting America free nation, especially
free to the matter of using her mothers sons in
the business of war. He must realize that terrible
crisis will face this country il the covenant is the
a-absorbng issue in the coming national campaign.
The people are confronted by of decidedly
higher prices of necessaries, not lower. The losses
of national income thru the supreme courts release
of stock dividends from income taxation, must be
made good by the consumers. Revision OF tariffs
upward means new burdens on the American con-
sumers. The guarantee TO the railroads means higher
cost of transportation, which the consumes must
pay. All this promotes dangerous radcaism and
universal bitterness.
And when upon this bitterness we pile hyphenate
hate, stirred up by the demagogy of politics.
bound to have psychological status that is most
depl0rable and threatening What shreds of comfy
of international sentiment will remain if the present
tide of angophobia, for instance is sweled to the
flood of red hot politics? No matter what the re-
suits of campaign with that covenant as the issue
the chief result is certain to be great weakening Of
capacity TO perform our part, cheerfully, sim
cerey and honestly in any international covenant.
We bid fair to ourselves with mud, before
the eyes of the world; TO continue as a disorderly
house indefinitely; to press the consumers nose still
harder upon the grindstone; TO take the rule of the
privileged or to take revolution, of what sort the
Lord only may know
President Wilson can lead the way out, if he will.
