(By Thomson & McKinnon.l


Wheat-Renewal OF foreign demand for
wheat and an improved -four market
were stimulating influences in the early
wheat market. Completion of demand
from this source left the market devoid
of buying power, which condition has
been so important of late in the making
of prices. Advices from the Southwest
indicated broadening desire to market
producers holdings. An important item
in the situation is the fact that cash
wheat as is arriving in market is declin-
ing faster than the deferred deliveries
Corn-There is some indication of
smaller offerings of corn by the country
but the daily movement is a weight upon
the market, as the Eastern demands fail
to improve despite the radical decline in
prices. In this market. as in the wheat,
TIE cash article Is declining faster than
future contracts. The market Is undoubt-
eddy under the domination of two record
crops in succession. The sum total of
these two crops provides a surplus Of
about 00000.000 over and above the aver
age consumption. This being so market
Is not likely to make any demonstration
of permanent strength.
Oats-There is undoubtedly merit in
this oats, but wave OF liquidation which
is spreading over entire country pre-
vents any particular advance In value.

Whose Fault Is 1t?
From the Columbus Enquirer-Sun.

Once in awhile you hear fellow complain
ing about what he calls hard times" The
probabilities are that he is very largely re-
Sponsbe for the hard times he is expert
encing, if he is really experiencing hard times
During the past few years there has been
more or less OF high living on the part of
many 1t has been the cost of living high as
much as it has been the high cost of living
that has gotten us where we are, and that is
what is the matter with some OF the fellows
most of them, i'll fact-who are now complain
ing about hard times. -"
You don't hear the fellow who has been
living economically, who has been buying on
Ilv what he needed, who has been pursuing the
sensible course, making any such complaint
1t is the fellow who found that money was
easy to get, who found that he could spend
it even more easily than he could get It, who
is doing the complaining.
Money may not be--in fact, it is not-al-
together as easy to get now as 1t was year
or two ago, but there is still plenty OF it. V1r-
tually all OF the money that has been printed
or coined during the past several years is
somewhere and merely because a fellow hap
pens to~be unable to get hold OF more than
his share of it should not cause him to COM
plain about hard times.
A fellow who would a year or two ago go
out and work two or three days IN week and
receive enough pay for this work (and IN many
instances not very we'll done at that to live
on in good style the rest OF the week hnds
today that Jobs at such wages as he received
then are not to be had. And he isn't in very
happy frame of mind about it.
That's about all there is to the hard times"
cry that some are making today. The day has
about passed when fellow can get whole
lot for little Of nothing-and that's what's
the matter.
Most all of us are living better-we are
having and enjoying more than we have ever
had and enjoyed before. We have gone little
too far in some cases, and in other cases we
have gone a long way too far. And now the
thing is proving to be sort OF boomerang.
1t was certain to hareback-there was no get
ting away from it.
And now the thing to do is to get down to.
brass tacks. OF course, all of us must have
what we need; that goes without saying; II
we don't there will be suffering. But there are
whole lot Of things we want that we do not
actually need-things that we could get along
very we'll without. We have upon the whole,
been extravagant i'll many instances, and IN
others we have been quite extravagant.
We've got to live down the habit OF ex-
travagance; we've got to live little more
economically, and we've got to work more
regularly.
If We'll do this the time won't be long COM
ing when we'll be getting along the best in
the world and We'll wonder how it all came
about.
Think it over.

The Old, Old World.

This old, old world is dreary place
For the man whose pass is a frowning face;
Who looks for the shadows instead of the
light
For the sordid and dull instead of the bright;
Who sees but the worry and labor and strife :;
Instead OF the glory and sunshine OF life.
This old, old world is a sad abode
For the man who travels along 1ife's road
With never laugh and never song
To tighten the toll as he goes along;
With never smile or a word OF cheer
To shorten the way for his fellows here.
But for him who possesses the saving grace
OF a laughing heart and smiling face
Who sings at his work and laughs at defeat
And looks for the good and the bright and the
sweet,
Who cheers on his fellows by word and by
deed
This world is pleasant place indeed

LOANS AND SPECTATORS.

Our esteemed neighbor, the Triton Gazette,
which is opposed TO the federal reserve bank
1oaning the southern farmers money with
which to Speculate" in cotton, does not be-
1ieve that these banks loaned any consider
able amount to the sugar spectators,
and that sugar dealers who did obtain money
from this source were wholesalers who secur-
ed it in the ordinary course of business. The
News, of course, cannot furnish evidence that
the public by means OF loans from the re-
serve banks and in all probability the Gazette
has no conclusive information they we're not
aided in their operations by funds from that
source The statement has frequently been
made by reliable newspapers and individuals,
both north and south, who could have no rea-
son for disappearing the facts, that the fed
eral reserve banks did loan these robbers mil
lions Of dollars and The News has seen no de
NAL of it. II IS a well-known fact that practi-
cally all wholesale dealers including brokers in
the small towns had large stocks of sugar
which they doled out in small quantities for
the purpose OF keeping the price up, and, Of
course, when they could no longer control the
market and the decline came some of them
lost heavily-not so much however as they
had gouged from the consumer. In fact, in
many towns the prohteers are still exacting
from the consumer higher price for sugar
than market quotations authorize. We hope
he Gazette is correct in its surmise, but we
wait more conclusive evidence.

TENNEsSEE's SURPRISING TRICK.

For forty years republicans have talked
about breaking the solid south States which
were considered in that group broke away at
times only to return to the democratic fold
at subsequent elections. Maryland went re
publican in 1894, and elected both republican
governor and republican legislature, which
in return elected republican United States
senator. Kentucky has kicked over the demo-
cratic traces at times, but has returned to the
party when the reaction came. Tennessee is
not permanently in the republican column. 1t
removes the line OF doubt further south, and
encourages the republicans to put forth
greater efforts to establish their party as a
factor in the politics of this section.
Tennessee went republican as a rebuke to
Governor Roberts for the manner in which
he secured the ratification of the federal Suf-
frage amendment over the wishes OF a ma
jority of the Tennessee legislature, quorum
of that body not having voted for it. The
midnight court decision and the Fastening to
Washington before day his certificate, based
upon this questionable proceeding, was resent
ed by fair minded voters irrespective OF par
ty or sex. Then, besides, there was great
dissatisfaction with the administration of Pres
ident Wilson the last few years The senti-
ment OF Tennessee is anti-Wilson, not pro-
republican.
The action of the voters of Tennessee was
deliberate They threw tradition to the wind
and elected republican governor the first
time since carpet bag rule in the south was
abolished and it is the first time since 1905
that the electoral vote of the state has gone
to the republicans.
Tennessee has merely gone visiting Find
ing herself in strange company she will return
in 1924 and again take her proper place among
her sister states of the south

FROM THE SOIL.

1t is interesting at this time to note that
of the presidents who have served their ma
ton the vast majority of them have come
from the soil. The ancestry OF thirteen OF the
twenty-seven men who have been elected
president were tillers of the soil All the men
so elevated were not farmers. But the gen.
erations behind them were. The ancestry OF
three were clergymen. These were Arthur,
Cleveland and Wilson. The ancestors of only
three-John Quincy Adams, Tyler and Taft
were lawyers, though it is generally believed
the legal profession is the key to the presi-
dency. The ancestors OF Buchanan, Hayes and
Roosevelt were engaged in commercial en-
terprises Grants father was a tanner, which
in his day meant trade. McKinley's ances-
tors were ronworkers.
Taylor Jackson and johnson were unedu-
Gated in the common meaning of that term.
Lincoln was educated, but knew nothing of
the classics or higher mathematics. Washing
ton had only what would now be termed a
primary education, though he was one of the
greatest thinkers of the age. In the case Of
both Washington and Lincoln the absence of
book information brought to the surface the
mental attributes which made them great.
They were untrammeed by environment or
the views OF others

When Prices Descend.
From the Marietta Journal.

Prices, like the thermometer, seem oath to
come down. A few articles are on the market
that may be bought at better prices than they
could few months ago. Cotton seed meal
has dropped to $3.50 per hundred, but hu11s
have not followed far down the way. Corn is
off considerably Zone of the things farmers sell
this time of the Year,, but flour, which he has
to buy, still remains high; cattle for beef are
way down, but beef itself is still at IS cents
the pound for good steak; dealers in beef say
the hides are so miserably low that they can't
pay much for the whole animal; but shoes are
above the ability OF folks selling boil weevil
cotton at 20 cents. Hogs are below par If
par" means the cost of raising them; but ba-
con is high for ones turnip greens; but things
are gradually coming round to normal if nor
NAL means eat whatever kind OF grub you can
get, wear old clothes as long as possible, and
work like the Dickens early and late. Mean
while, pay the merchant what you can, pay
up interest on all notes at the bank, don't for
get state and county taxes, sow oats for your
mules next spring plant little wheat for bis
cult, and keep your face adorned with a de-
licious smile. for it's the only kind one gets
these days, since they've stopped selling them
around the corner.

WHY SHOULD HE?

By some republicans President Wilson is
being criticised for not congratulating Sena-
tor Harding on his election They seem to
think that if Governor Cox can congratulate
Mr.. Harding the president can. They fail to
take into consideration the fact that Mr.. Cox
was Mr. Harding's opponent and that Mr..
Wilson was not Mr.. Wilson is president, and
as sponsor for the league of nations, which
was rejected by the people, had more at stake
than political success. Mr.. Wilson could not
consistently congratulate Mr.. Harding for in
so doing he would practically say he was glad
the league of nations had been defeated
In offering Mr.. Harding government YES
sells to take him to Panama President Wilson
recognized him as the president-elect and his
successor in office. From a political stand
point this courtesy was as significant as was
Mr.. Coxs congratulations were sportsman
like Only preiudiced minds would undertake
to argue that it was not.

Praise For the Peanut.
From the Atlanta Journal.

Though peanuts as money crop seem for
the nonce to have fallen upon evil days, they
are nevertheless winning the good word of
dietitans and the admiring report of econo-
mists to an extent that augurs their certain
return to prosperity. Once a synonym OF
triAes peanuts" now stands for all that is nu-
tritious and substantially popular. No longer
is it fitting, argues the Chicago Evening
Post to speak of peanut politics by way OF
denoting things picayunish in civic affairs or
to refer disparagingly to ones capacity as
that of the tender of peanut stand"
Who, indeed will not be impressed by the
Importance of an American crop that amount
ed in 1918 to fifty-three million bushels and
represented a value OF one hundred million
dollars? In twelve states, the department of
agriculture announces, peanuts have taken
their place among the staples and, in normal
years, are yielding the growers bountiful
return.
One seasons depression in the market for
this product does not lessen its real worth,
nor its prohtableness when converted into
sleek porkers.
