But Hughes, like everyone else, saw the futility of such a narrow investigation. In his letter to the attorney general, out- lining what he thought should be the scope of the work, Judge Hughes said that the question of honesty cannot be determined without going thoroughly into all the transactions, and that if no sufficient grounds be found for criminal procedure, “our conclusion, to be convincing to the country, could not well be stated as a mere negative conclusion in general terms, but should be accompanied by a fair, candid, and adequate state- ment of the facts which our investigation has disclosed.” So far as we recollect, this is the second time President Wilson has found an appointee who declined to sacrifice his own opinion as to the country’s welfare in order to agree with the president. The other instance was when Secretary Garrison resigned as secretary of war because the president would not stand for the degree of preparedness Garrison thought the country needed. 0 UNBREAKABLE LAWS. is the best lumber known for home-building: because it does not warp or twist or rot even after generations of exposure to the weather. !

Administrator Hoover that 800 carloads of cabbages were rotting in the fields for want of a market and asked him for help. He replied that the supply exceeded the demand and he could suggest no remedy. The growers of those cabbages are doubtless of the opinion that the law of supply and demand is still in force, notwithstanding the effort of some people to set it aside or ignore it. The law of supply and demand will break down at the same time the law of gravitation does. 0- > “THE FRONT OF JOVE HIMSELF.” The republican club of New York City, which cancelled the membership of Theodore Roosevelt in 1912, and took his picture down from its walls, has recently put the picture back and notified the colonel that he has been re-elected to member- ship. The colonel has accepted with expressions of appreciation and co-operation. The incident is but typical of what has been going on all over the country, not merely in the big city clubs but in the small organizations and the cross roads gatherings. The old divisions have been forgotten. 0- The army mule is to be prevented from braying. This can be accomplished by severing some muscles in its tail, as the raising of the tail is an indispensable accompaniment to the bray. This reminds us of Mark Twain’s story of the man who tied a stone to the tail of his neighbor’s mule so that he himself could enjoy some rest at night. 0- England is perfectly willing to listen to proposals for a reasonable peace, but she will not lay down the bayonet while she listens for them. 0 You have to appreciate the blessings of peace to be ready to fight for them.

No such mission for human help has ever seen the like of this heroic work by the American Red Cross in Italy. For the winter’s needs it was found that 750 tons of hospital supplies were required, and these were ordered In America for immediate delivery to Italy. Some of the things ordered were an- gesthetics, surgical instruments, rub- ber goods, enamel ware, gauze, ab- gorbent cotton and drugs. Just what such a shipment means Is difficult for a layman to grasp. If you'd like to see your druaggist Jose all his senses at once just tell him about some of these quantities that wers ordered for use in Italy. Tell him that 250 pounds of quinine | were omdered. Since the war quinine \ Bhag been difficult to get at any price. very badly needed In Italy, and this Red Cross shipment has been nothing short of a boon. Other Items which give a better idea in terms of the things which mean most to the wounded are 15 tons of chloroform and 25 tons of ether. These items are beyond the power of the layman to visualize, but he cap come nearer to picturing 2,000 bales of absorbent cotton, the quantity asked for. Orders for all these goods for Italy were placed last winter in America, and the American Red Cross has seen to it that shipments of each item are in process of delivery right along to re- lieve the terrible misfortune of the people in Italy. » Over 1,000 Repatriated French Arrive at Evian Daily.
