The Last Laugh
New York. May 10.-There is more
than slight dash of wormwood in
the situation by which Flo Ziegfeld
becomes occupant of Earl CAROLS
handsome Carroll theater.
This is, indeed, touche in a duel
which Broadway has watched with
amusement for years. It was Car
rolls turn to thrust last time. The
New Amsterdam theater had for
many years been identified with the
Ziegfeld Follies. Then, one season,
when the cards failed to run Ziggy's
way, Carroll moved in with a music
show.
Ziegfeld had proudly hammered his
girlieS as the worlds most beautiful.
Whereupon Carroll hung sign on
the stage entrance reading: Through
these portals NOW pass the most
beautiful girls in the world"

This slogan has since been freely
paraphrased by the wags. When
Carroll was reported entertaining
lavishly on his yacht, a local comic

Then, when it became evident that
CAROLS theater was about to be
taken over by the landlord, festive
party was staged Whereupon an
other wisecracker came out with:
Through these portals now pass
OUT the most beautiful girls in the
world"
At any rate. at the moment it's a
clean thrust for Ziegfeld. His first
official act was to change the thea
ter's name from the Carroll to the
Casino.

Will Wool Make It!

Despite the failure of government
sponsored agencies to stabilize prices
Of such products as wheat and cotton
on satisfactory basis, the indica-
tons are that the National Wool Mar
keting corporation, another subsidiary
Of the farm board, contemplates an
additional experiment along this line.
A recent announcement from Bos-
ton said the corporation is prepared
to handle the entire wool production
of the United States for 1892" and
that ample funds, warehousing ia
cilities and experienced personnel for
financing and efficient handling have
been provided"
The same statement asserted that,
as result, growers need no longer
accept offers which ignore present
tariff protection and that the wool
remaining from the 1881 crop would
be marketed to orderly mill demand
as in the past. having in mind the
protection of values
It is significant that the announce
ment followed conferences between c.
B. Denman, member of the farm
board; George H. Thomas. chief of
the boards loan division; the execu-
tive committee of the wool coopera-
tive, and representatives of large fl
nancial institutions.
The new experiment will be worth
watching. 1t may be dismal failure
but, if it is successful, it may show
that the cooperative idea is a real
one which, under proper conditions,
will point the way to higher prices
for farm products.
In this connection it must be adj
mitted that the wheat and cotton CO.
operatives came into the field at a
difficult time and that there is no
telling what the result might have
been if they had not been in the mar
kets to cushion the drop Of falling
prices.
The average man, be he on the
farm, in industry or in business, is 4
little puzzled by the whole affair. The
experiment, as it stands
now. is just one more uncertainty in
a world beset by uncertainty. 1t may
be that further experimentation on
the original lines of farm board oper-
alton is the only way to prove or dis
prove the value of the original idea.

that 100000 Italian troops had been
concentrated in France to swell re-

This drain on Italy's forces was
said not to weaken the Italian front

Mr.. Roosevelt Slows Down

New YORK NORTHUMBERLAND
The Democratic presidential nomi-
nation will not go to Franklin D.
Roosevelt by default. He will have
to demonstrate that he is a stronger
candidate than he has shown to date
or dark horse nominee will be cho-
sen by the Chicago convention.
That is the meaning of the uneX-
pected defeat of the New York gov
ernor in the California primaries.
Virtually all the politicians-includ-
ing most of the Roosevelt supporters,
in their confidential conversations
agree that Mr.. Roosevelt will have
hard fighting from now on.
Mr.. Roosevelts recent reverseS are
not so surprising as they may appear
on the surface. For months he was
sweeping everything before him be-
cause no outstanding candidate was
opposing him. Much of his support
was tentative.
Then Alfred E. Smith became &C
tive and took Massachusetts,. That
was an omen. But it was not de-
termining factor nationally. Massa-
chusetts was known as Smith
stronghold. and his victory there had
been largely discounted in advance.
More significant was the result in
Pennsylvania, where Mr.. Smith cut
heavily into the anticipated Roose-
welt majority.
But the California result is far
more important. 1t was the first real
test OH neutral ground. And it defi-
nitely gave to the combined anti
Roosevelt and native son forces more
than the one-third total of conven-
ton votes necessary to stop Mr. Roo
sevelt-if the convention wishes to
stop him.
OF course, the Garner victory in
California does not mean that Mr..
Garner will be the nominee any more
than the Smith victory in Massachu-
sets meant that Mr.. Smith would be
the nominee.
| Mr.. Gamers failure to measure up
to his job as party chief in the house
OF representatives probably has elimi-
mated him from serious national con-
,sideration.
The final convention test is apt to
be between Mr.. Roosevelt and some
candidate not now active. Under Or
binary conditions that probably would
result in the convention managers
Manipulating a man of the Harding
type.
But, with the present marked pub
lie pressure for a great leader to bring
the nation out of the worst depres-
sion in our history, the Democratic
managers are not likely to be foolish
enough to throw the election to Her.
bert Hoover by running a second
rater against him.
1t is precisely that standard OF
leadership. in our judgment. which
Mr.. Roosevelt will have to achieve to
get the nomination. He sets himself
up as an outstanding leader. He
looks well. His speeches sound well
But in recent months as governor Of

w CT. II. in the Lead

AS the lines are drawn for the wet
dry fight in this election year it be-
comes more and more apparent that
the backbone of the dry cause will
be the Women's Christian Temper
ance Union, whose zeal and earnest
ness has never been questioned.
A list of all the dry organizations
which have participated in this fight
would include many which have
taken part only when funds were
plentiful. The w. c. T. U. gets its
funds from its members and the size
of outside contributions never has
figured in its plans. Therein lies
one Of it's great assets as a militant
organization.
The Anti-Saloon League still ex-
lists and is as active as it can be
with the resources available, but it
no longer performs on the grand
scale which it knew in the palmy
days when Wayne B. Wheeler was
the confidant Of presidents and the
ruler of congresses. Financially, the
movement has fallen on evil days as
more and more persons of wealth be-
came distrustful of prohibitions eff
feet on the nation.
Unless something is done, there
fore. it appears that the brunt Of the
battle will fall upon the w. G. T. u,
ever active and ever faithful to a
cause in which it has implicit conf
dence. The vets would do we'll not
to discount the effectiveness of this
organization in planning the cam
paign which they fancy will make
prohibition a memory. This organi-
cation brought prohibition to the
country and will do its best to pre-
serve it. That best is nothing to be
sneezed at.
In its latest publicity sheet the
w. C. T. U. lists the benefits of pro-
hibition under the heading "A dozen
gains in a dozen years as follows:
1T has made liquor an outlaw; has
stopped liquor advertising; reduced
arrests for drunkenness; reduced
drinking by at least so per cent;
made streets safer for women and
children; shattered organized Ii
quor's grip on politics; wiped out, al
most completely, drink-made poverty;
given millions of youth better chance
for education: given the United
States the worlds most efficient in
dustries; driven liquor from Main
Street to a criminals hide-out; killed
the saloon with its public lure to
drink; given the United States eco
nomic stability whereby we have held
up better in world depression than
liquor ridden nations"
There you have it, and all who run
may read.
These are the arguments which
will form the basis of the dry cam
paign. The vets must meet them II
they are to score the victory which
many now anticipate.

rice for waterfowl" Dam a ditch and
