WAS NEW ONE ON KITCHENER
Great British Soldier Somewhat Out

to Chaplains.

Here is Lord Kitchener story, told
by the anonymous author Of "The Mir
rors Of Downing Street" Kitchener
was soldier and absorbed In his pro.
fession. Details outside Of his ruling
passion annoyed him.
During the early days of the war
Lloyd George went to him at the war
office and asked the appointment Of
denominatlonal chaplains for the vari-
GUS sects Of the army.
Kitchener had no interest In chap
lains. He regarded them as a negli-
gible factor In the fighting machine.
He opposed the appointments. Lloyd
George insisted, especially with respect
to Presbyterians. Kitchener finally
yieledd and picked up his pen.
"Very WELL" he said, "you shall have
Presbyterian" Then a faint smile
lighted his serious face. .Let me see.

tricts. All of these districts Dire con
sidered doubtful districts in congres
sional elections, hut last year all o.
them elected Republican congressmer
and contributed heavy Republican ma.
jorities on the entire ticket, including
Gov. Hyde.
1t is reported by the circulators ci
petitions in these districts that the
people are filled with dissatisfaction
with both the national and state ad.
Illustrations, but especially the state
administration. The extravaganza Of
the 51st General Assembly, in its reg.
ular session; the intolerable character
of general legislation, enacted by this
body, and the very stupid policy Of
the Governor in dealing with questions
of assessments and taxation, have all
aided in developing this feeling Of dis
content. People welcomed an oppor-
tunity to express their views respect
ing the Hyde policies, and they vel
coined the opportunity to obtain a
popular vote upon some of the more
Objectionable measures sponsored by
the Governor.
This is interesting in high degree.
1t serves to show that the people have
found themselves the victims of de-
ception, almost without parallel in the
state. Attention is called to the stu
alton in these districts, because 1t is
from the counties making up these dis
tricts that Missouri Republicans must
always depend for their majorities
when they obtain them. Without
these districts, no Republican could ev-
er hope to be elected to any state Of
flee in Missouri. The wisdom of the
referendum campaign has been LEM
onstrated by the manner in which the
people in Southern Missouri, with SUCH
strong Republican majorities, avail
themselves of the chance afforded to
voice their disapproval of the tactics
Of the present state administration.
The Hyde regime has lost the con-
fidence of all Missouri, and irretriev-
ably so in the Republican strongholds
of the lower half of the state.

dustry is affected by different condi-
tons and is to be judged after this
fashion.
mining in general is striking ex-
ample of a particularly economic trou-
bic affecting the country as whole.
Most of the minerals, whether coal or
copper or zinc or lead, have greater
actual and potential capacity than
there is any demand for in sight at
present. Consequently, mining in gen.
eral is very dull and where running is
doing so on short time.
zone bright spot in the coal mining
situation is down in Southwestern Vir-
ginia, where there increased demand
for export, due to the general coal
mining strike in Great Britain. Coal
mining is very naturally affected, not
only by the slump in manufacturing,
but likewise by the great falling off in
the volume of railroad business.
"The railroads are using their ut
MOS; thought and endeavor to get
their house in order by reduction in
the cost of operation and by various
economies. All of which inspires the
hope on the part of the general public
that these things when accomplished
and they now seem underway-will
result in reduced cost of transporta-
tion. For such costs of transporta-
tion are heavy handicap, too burden
some to be borne by many commodi-
ties, notably lumber and numerous
farm products.
$50 true is this that it is actually
curtailing business in this and other
lines so affected, this being a direct
loss both to the producer and the
transportation companies. One of the
interesting developments of the time
is the growth of the electric trolley
car and the auto truck in short hauls,
in which they are already formidable
competitors of the steam railroads."

we could well afford to consider ev-
erything that is spoken. written, print

ton, "Will it help or harm our agri-
cultural interests; will it benefit the
farmer?
Farming is just about the only
thing that has not used publicity to
advantage. It needs boosting. 1t can
not get along without it, and still keep
up with the time.
The farmer who can afford to spend
a dollar, or $40 or 500 cannot afford
to spend it in some way with the COM

its columns, or advertising the prod

WHY HARDING HESITATES

Mark Sullivan, in the New York Ev-
ening Post, seeks to explain in sym
pathetic but none the less plain man.
ner, some of the difficulties that con-
front the Harding administration. In
the first place, President Harding and
the leaders of the Republican party
realize that the two chief needs of the
country are resumption Of business
along its broadcast lines and relief from
the burden Of taxation. In some re-
spects these needs are interlocking,
but they are none the less imperative,
and Senator Lenroot has warned his
party members that unless there is
substantial relief from taxation there
will be change in political control Of
the nation in 1924.
Mr.. Sullivan admits that Republi-
can leaders are none too sanguine
about the results Of the emergency
tariff bill already passed, or the gen.
eral tariff measure soon to be propos-
ed. They do not think that tariff rev.
enue will ease the burden for the very
good reason that international trad$
is in the worst sort of a slump. A
tariff means nothing unless there is
trade upon which the duties may he
imposed and the corpse of trade can
not be revived by punitive measures.
1t is the evil vision of continued high
taxes that is forcing the Republican
organization to serious considera-
ton of disarmament, and yet they
cannot limit our military and naval
construction without some sort of an
agreement with the other nations
looking toward similar action on their
part.
The whole matter, as Mr.. Sullivan
very correctly estimates, resolves it.
self down to a readjustment of world
affairs in which REIMBURSEMENT of world
affairs in which REIMBURSEMENT the
United States must share part Of
the labors and obligations. The real
ization of this fact has caused the Re-
publican party to turn around and 60
back part of the way up the hill af-
ter it had walked completely down
from the position occupied by the pre-
vious administration. And the indi-
cations are that this upward journey
may have to, be continued. Mr.. Sulli-
vain does not deny that this is why the
administration hesitates.
After all, it is becoming clearer ev-
cry day that the hated Wilsonian pol
icies can be the only solution Of the
situation, and even Senator Lodge
may have to swallow the bitter dose.
