Put a Duty on
Dairy Products.

A man who seems conversant with
agricultural problems says that in
stead of wrangling over Teapot Dome
and other forms of bribery congress
should place a duty of zoe a pound on
cheese and 10c a pound on butter.
He claims, that owing to the high
rate of exchange, Europe is flooding
this country with dairy products.
Dairying is about our only hold and
the dairy farmer should have more
protection. At present the manufac-
turing groups get protection for COM
pleted articles but obtain cheap food
without protection. A duty like this,
he claims. would do more than any
thing else to revive prosperity among
the dairy farmers.

Canning" the Highway Signs.

The Standard Oil Co., in conces-
sion to the esthetic, removes 1900
road signs from the highways of Cal
ifornia. These signs, costing over d
million dollars. were destroyed in a
single day.
The highway sign is poor advertis-
ing, an offense against good taste ana
a blot in the landscape. Advertising
is a just proposition but 1t mas It's
place and that place is in the pubic
prints and not on the roads. AT times
we want to get away from utllltar-
ianism and back to nature. The high
wav sign lars us away from this.

Open Stores on
Wednesday Evening.

The Herald suggests that during
the summer months it would be a
good plan to keep the local stores
open until 8 o'clock Wednesday even
ings.
Farmers are busy nearly every day
during the summer and have little
time to run to town. One trade even
ing a week in addition to Saturday
would be a big aid to the farmers.
This is merely suggestion. Towns
trying it have found that they get
two good trade nights a week.

Contempt for Law.

We often wonder if men in posi-
tion to administer law realize their
responsibility? When judge sets
aside the law and administers a mild
sentence in a case of gross violation
he is certainly contemptuous of the
law he administers. When an execu-
tive oyerrides a court sentence and
issues a pardon to a law violator just
to obIige somebody he also is holding
the law in contempt.

Judge Lands Talks Out.

Judge Lands, before the senatorial
committee last week, criticised the
pardon of Grossman, Chicago saloon
keeper. Grossman was convicted IN
1920 of selling whiskey and sentenced
to serve a year. He never served a
day but, according to evidence, kept
on selling. Powerful pressure was
brought upon Harding but he on two
occasions refused to interfere. Later,
it is claimed, Coolidge, upon request
of Senator Mckinley and Homer K.
Cabin, a politician, issued a pardon.
The judge says pardoning power
should be used only in cases where
additional evidence indicates mis-
carriage of justice.
Lands pertinently asks: "How can
$500 a year enforcement men be ex-
pected to go straight when their et-
forts at conviction are set at naught?'
