Many little “sells at sight” these days. Prohibition and Meat Prices, (South Norwalk'Sentinel.) Most anything, of course, will serve ! as an excuse to advance the price of meat. The reason given by agents of the meat packers for a recent jump in eastern wholesale rates has at least | the merit of novelty. The explana- {ion is that thejwave of prohibition {hroughout the country has greatly ‘curtained the business of the whiskey distillers, so there 1s not enough of the whiskey refuse grain to fatten the yrual mumber of cattle, and the con- sequent scarcity of cattle is forcing prices up. It's just another indication of the complexity of the liquor problem. It dcesn’t seem ever to have occurred to the liquor men themselves to figure ont an argument like this against prohibition. A somewhat more convincing ex- planation of the acknowledged meat shortage—and there's less beef and mutton stored in New York than there | hag been in the same season for ten | vears—is the enormous demand by ihe European armies PMPour thousand steers a day are going abroad to feed the Allies’ 'troops. | | retary ' of state. | ject of his speeches. | has some soul. ‘Wilson, the Man! (Philadelphia Public ‘Ledger.) One thing ' seems ‘certain—as re- flected in’ the biased reports’ from democratic workers, as well as in impartial opinion from all parts of the country—President Wilson is to- day. a popular executive. . His pop- ularity, ‘according to some political studénts, has increased greatly since the resignation of' Mr. Bryan, the sec- Even fepublicans thirk ‘that the president’ is stronger than his party. President Wilson, unlike many of his predecessors, will do nothing to strengthen himself before the people in the way of speechmaking. The pol- iticians of the administration had persuaded him, before ‘the foreign situation became so grave, to consent to go to the Panama-Pacific exposi- tion and 'make speeches throughout the West. The trip has been aban- doned. Mr. Wilson will remain in Washington most of this year,’ aside from short vacations of two or three weeks in Cornish, N. H, Another thing that makes the trip almost prohibitive is that® the presi- dent would be restricted in the sub- The people, his advisers say, have no taste for poli- tics and want to listen only to talk of the nation’s position in regard to the war. The president, of course, could not discuss this, and if he went on such a campaign he would be expected to reply to Bryan, which thus far he has declined to do. President Wilson will be the only president in many years who has not gone to ‘the Pacific ¢oast and made such a trip on the occasion of speech- making.. He will not go next year, becaues he is opposed to a president going on a- political campaign, pure and simple. The outlook is that no time during ‘his four years of office will Mr. Wil- son cross the country. Not since the days of President Cleveland has " a president omitted such a trip. Pres- ident Harrison made one trip to the coast, as did President McKinley. President Roseevit made several, be- ing a frequent visitor to all parts of the country. President Taft traveled into all sections of the country. l RS ST \ Taxing Churches., * (Bridgeport Standard.) The New York State Constitutional Convention is considering the subject of taxing the property of churches and benevolent institutions now ex- empt. In all there is a total of $1,- §00,000,000 worth of preperty in New York city which pays no taxes. Of this total one fifth, or $360,000,000 is church property, while the remain- ing four fifths, or $1,440,000,000 is owned by the national, state and city governments. If the church property is to be taxed, it is argued that all the other exempt property should go into the lists also . Speaking of the property of Trinity Parish, the Wall Street Journal says: “Trinity paid in taxes last year $188.- 000. The greater part of its untaxed property are the churchyards of Trinity and St. Paul's. Wall Street 1t the district which it represents. will oppose attempts to tax churches | to desecrate the surroundings of the graves of Alexander Hamilton, Lord Stirling, Albert Gallatin, James Law- | rence, or the Revolutionary martyrs, and to injuré in its midst shrines of spiritual significance.” Good for Wall Street!

(New ‘London Day.) * After the experiénce of the Great the introduction of metropolitan cabaret singers at its annual dinner it might have been expected that other chambers om commerce in New Eng- land would have been a littld careful Oof taking similar chances. But the Hartford chamber, in reckless defiance of consequences, likewise had cabaret Singers at its dinner at Compounce and now is torn by dissension similar to those whicH followed the kissing of & bald head at Great Barrington. It is useless. The New England business man isn't a Chicago business man and ‘the New England wife in’t & New York wife, to be safely for- Botten even during the diversions of a chamlger of commerce dinner. You can't ‘introduce toe dancing on the tables and the twining of soft arms around diaconal necks at public din- Mers in the part of the world without starting ructions. Not yet. PO ES A Hypothetical Problem. (New London Day.) There. is opportunity = for ' endless diseussion, involving = some of the reduction developed in 1896, in a com- templation of what might happen if the trade” balance against Burope and in favor of this country should con- tinue to grow at the present rate during three or four years more of warfare. v The question that suggests itself is this: What would transpire if Europe finding itself hopelessly in debt and drathed of all its goid, the latter hav- ing been paid to this country in the sgttlemem of gigantic trade balances, should seek the easiest way out of its mess .upon the completion of peace? | Suppose, in short, that a post-bellum monetary congress of all the import- ant European nations should agree to create a new standard of values, based perhaps on international pestal ser- vice or a measure of wheat, - and gold—would this country be robbed thereby of its profits from the supplies exchanged for Europe primary coin and bullion = And what could we do ebout it? Possibly the ‘“crime of '73" ag a subject for endless argument may tnd in the hypothesis not only a worthy rival but one possessing vast- ly greater possibilities, Has Chicago “Hit the Trail?” (Bridgeport Farmer.) Ike Bloom says Chicago is more moral than New York. Ike ran a dancé hall which was put out of commission by former Mayor Harri- son. He hasn't been able to get it reopened, so he is going to start. an- other place at a_ discreet but auto- mobilious distance out of fown. A first class place, We says. . If Chicago is growing 'pious Tke ‘Bloom ought to know. Chicago was too mora] for him. This is what he says: “Do you know Chicago is getting better mor- ally? I can ‘see it every day They can get away with stuff in New York which if pulled off here would mean ten years in Joliet. People who have traveled—and I've done a little hop-scotching myself—tell 'me Chi- cago is the most moral big town in "the world. I stepped around a little a few years ago, and I must say that Chicago, morally, has it on any city in BEmngland or France.” Chicago setting the world an example ot sweet gravity ahd demure deport- ment is in a new role. But the surest thing about Chicago "is that one never knows what it is going to do next. Our ' Ticket. (Brooklyn Ragle.) We enter for the presidential lists next year the following ticket of the serve-self party, calculated to run the Republicans, Democrats and Bull Moose into the ditch: For president, William Bryan.
