Wine by Foot Pressure.

In the grape countries Of Europe
various methods are employed for the
purpose Of extracting the liquid from
the fruit. The best wine is said to
result from piling the grapes in . great
vat and relying in the weight to do
the squeezing. Crude presses are
sometimes resorted to and there are
great cumbersome constructions to be
seen in use today which have been
used for many generations. The Moors
make wine and the process Of ex-
traction is accomplished by treading.
but 1t is explained that they take on
their shoes so that the. wine will be
nice and clean.

PASTOR URGES.
SCHOOLPROBE

Following the recommendation
made by the Rev. Joseph r. Sizoo
before the Washington Board of
Trade last night. that it should
investigate the local public school
system, Claude w. Owen, presi-
dent, said the pastors suggestion
would be presented to the boards
directors.
DR.. Sizoo pointed out that no
provision has been made for pub
lie school construction out of the
$40,000,000 allocated to the Dis
trict by the Public Works Admin
istration, and denounced a system
that would permit the building
Of roads for the sacrifice Of a
junior high school," He added:
"All the talk in the past about
helping the schools has been
proven to be ballyhOO. Enough
has been spent on the roads in
the United States to rebuild

OUR WEALTH

1t is estimated that the national
wealth of the United States has
dropped from 1852, 900, 900 in
1929, to $247, 000,OOO,O 600 in
1892. 1t is further stated that the
high peak of national wealth was
reached in 1920, when the total
was estimated at $4SS, 5000, 0OO, 900.
Apparently from these wid:
fluctuations our national wealth is
appraised largely on going market
prices for real estate and securities.
Needless to say this is a pretty in
tangible basis and one which can
never be realized in toto. We never
could sell all our real estate or Sc
curities at once, and their actual,
or intrinsic, value never changes as
much as their market value.
We are wealthiest when goods
and services are most freely ev-
changed on favorable terms to both
buyer and seller. When u eccno-
mic system is thus funct;cning
freely it makes little difference
whether land is selling for s4c'> or
500 an acre.

To The Editor:
1t is presumed that Monday is
the conventional w~lshday, and
that people who wash their clothes
and hang them upon the line in
the back yard should be entitled to
dry them there. Then what should
one do when their clothes are hung
upon their lines and tie people
next door bring out all their car
pets and rugs to sweep and dust
them, raising clouds of dirt md

clothes on the line, soiling them
and necessitating re-washing? Also
what is to be done when we sit on
the front porch and the people
next door shake their dust mcps
out the window and the dirt blows
over upon our porch, covering the
porch with dirt?
Now that summer is here, people
should be permitted to occupy
their porches without having dirt
spread over them. They should
also be allowed to have their win
dows open without getting the dirt
from their neighbours mops or
dirty carpets.
There ought q be a law.

For three years now people have
been saying optimistically that
Prosperity is lust around the cor

We have turned so many cor
ners in looking for it that most Of
us found ourselves right back

sooner were economic conditions
safely out of one tight corner than
something new occurred to send
business into another corner.
This time, however, it seems in
c~reasingly clear that there are nc
serious corners in sight. We have
turned the last one and before us
lies the open road to Prosperity.
We shall encounter some curves,
to be sure. The road is not yet as
smooth and as level as we believe
it will be later on, and there may
be a few collisions. There are still

than the standard silver dollar,
containing, l believe, an exact
ounce of silver or $50 grains, in
stead of the Az grains of the sill
yer dollar. The Chinese, then as
now, trade with silver by weight
instead of by the value stamped
upon the coin, and the trade dol
lar came handy in settling balances
calling for a given number of
ounces of silver. 1t was not sup
posed to circulate in the States, but

FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1888
AMERICA FIRST

From what we read and hear a
bout what is being planned in
Washington, it looks to us as if
the Administration were trying to
put the United States in a. position
where this country can run along
independently of the rest of the
world. We don't understand that
all of our present activity in fore
ign affairs has any other purpose
titan to try to untangle the mess
which prevents foreign countries
from paying what they w us.
Most of our recent troubles arise
from the fact that European ma
tons have been spending money on
competitive ornaments instead OF
paying their debts. Much of the
rest of our troubles can be traced
to our longtime habit of relying
upon the rest of the world to take
a lot of our raw materials every
year.
That habit grew upon us when
we were a debtor nation, and hac
to ship wheat and cotton and to-
bacco and such to pay our foreign
debts. The shoe is on the othe1
foot now. So long as Europe cam
pay what she already owes us, ii
would be foolish to expect her tt
take any more of our goods ane
pay for them. Instead, we have go
to take more of her goods. Tn
only way nations ever have pai'
debts to each other is the way W
used to pay, in trade goods.
No American could object if GU
foreign debtors were to pay us il
coffee, or rubber or tea, or cocoa
or silk or such-like things that W
can't or don't produce.
In regulating our W produc
ton we shall be placing ourselve
in a position where we won't hav
to depend upon Europe, Asia O
Africa for any part of u owl
prosperity. That seems to be a de,
finite part of the Administration
program.
In other words, we are getting
into a place where we a dictate

NATURE OTHERWISE?
To The Editor:
What stands out so far in the
Morgan investigation is the almost
spectacular presentation of gifts to
the great or near-great friends of
the royal house of Morgan.
But why should those who re-
ceived these gifts be disqualified
from holding office, when the same
system of Manus manum hvat, as
the Romans called it, obtains
throughout society-on a smaller
and less regal scale as the lower
strata are reached? 1t is reciprocity
of favors everywhere, reciprocity
buying on a huge scale, if you want
to do business. Nothing would be
gained by ousting Woodin Or Davis
as those who would take their
places would not be different.
1t is not, as the radicals-be they
called socialists or Communists or
something else-maintain that the
system of private property is at
fault. 1t is the human race that no
longer knows how to make the
right use of the good things that
exist and are made. For this reason
it is perfectly logical and correct
for the radicals to proclaim that
the present capitalist rule will wy
shortly be replaced by the rule of
the proletariat, but they are mis-
