IN THE DAYS NEWS
THE MENNoNITEs.

Invited to Russia and exempted from taxes and military service be- cause they could farm, then banished because some of them established a communistic colony; obeying the laws of many lands but refusing to take part in making or enforcing them; drowning upon science, buttons, life insurance and tobacco-such are vari- ous branches of the Mennonites, whose exodus from Canada to Mexico adds another chapter in the centuries old anabasis of this quaint and goodly peo- pie.
 While geographers are studying human migrations on the basis of economic determinism, here is con siderable group who defy any such oharting, and move about solely upon the basis of the best opportunity to follow their regious beliefs" says a bulletin from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the National Geo graphic Society.
 Prom Holland to Germany, thence to Morayia, Hungary, Rumania and into Russia-so runs the earlier course of Mennonite wanderings. From the steppes of Crimea and the treeless banks of the Molochnaia to Bonhomme County in South Dakota was not toe | long a trail for the most home staying people in the world-so long as they are not disturbed. They seldom traye 1 individually. Just before the war a trip to Washington was offered as ar agricuktuaal prize to twelve young men of Lancaster Country, Pa, one of the oldest American Mennonite strongholds, and of the twelve win ners not one had been outside his owI country before
 Now about 1900 Mennonites are re. ported to be leaving Manitoba ant 1 Saskatchewan, Canada, for Durango Mexico, and the productive loss theil going will mean is only slightly in dicated by the estimate that they vii take along with them some S15,0e0 ,0pi worth of goods, farm implements anC cash.
 Compulsory education requirements including the teaching of English which could easily be adjusted by ; more compromising people, cause' the migration from Canada.

IMPROVED TROLLEY SHOWING.

There is not community in the state that cannot view with satisfaction the financial statement of the Connecticut company for the year 1921, for the better business that is done by that company the better can be expected to be the ser wee rendered by the transportation com pany and the quicker will there be ob- tained that much sought reduction in fares
 When it Is shown that the increasing of the fare to ten cents resulted in the company showing profit for the first time in several years it demonstrates the justification for the increase but for the relief that was obtained in overcoming deficits but in maintaining service that would have otherwise been abandoned. Likewise does it show that there was unjust competition afforded by the jit- neys which have been restricted, while the ether assistance given by action of the legislature has served to aid the com pany and in time will result in the pay ment to the state of the back taxes which amount to nearly two and third mil- Hon.
 With net profit to the company for the past year of nearly $726,oo0, one-haif of that was paid on the tax arrears and that division of the net income will be made until adjustment is completed.
 Conditiors which made it necessary for the trolley company to advance its fare have by no means disappeared, although much relief has been obtained in various ways. including the cutting of operating expenses. One reduction in the fare has been made and the three for a quarter plan is meeting with favor. Such indi cates an increase in the patronage whicf is of course necessary If the company i: going to continue to show a net income for the cutting of the fare means les 1 revenue unless the patronage gains.
 Efforts to have the fare returned t the normal price of a nickel seem bi premature at this time but If the trolle! business continues to improve this yea as it did last the day when another GU at least can be made ought not to be ia, off. Getting back to the normal far when conditions of the business are stil
 abnormal can hardly be expected.

ENCOURAGING A CONFERENCE.

The fact that Attorney General Daugherty is in Indianapolis at this time makes it evident that he is there for the purpose of doing whatever is pos sible to hasten a settlement in the coal strike. He has declared that he was fla vorajbly disposed to the suggestion of the house labor committee and after declar- ing that the conference could take place without danger of legal action by the de- partment of justice it would apear that his trip to Indianapolis was for the pur- pose of determining what action was ad- visable in connection with existing in dictments.
 There can be little question but what good use has been made by the miners ot the fact that the operators had refused to confer with them in accord with their agreement. That fact might be easily offset by the fact that the meeting oi the hard coal operators and miners hac mt prevented strike in that field, or P3 the fact that the agreement bound thl miners not to strike for a period of B days after the agreement expired. Nev ertheiess that failure to meet the miner: | has given them a strong talking poin
 and at the same time the operators dis closed that there was some good legal ob struction in the way of such a confer
 ence which the attorney general nov seems to be endeavoring to definitely re
 move.
 The supply of coal above ground a
 the opening of the coal strike has beel
 such as to cause little embarrassment
 thus far and unquestionably that fac las been one of the reasons why so lit
