‘tare who having had the theory that two can live cheaper than one ex- ploded will say a man cannot get married on $50 a month. Fisher has put that argument where it belongs.

Business Consolidation. (Bridgeport Post.) Business consolidation in the news- paper world is steadily proceeding in New England. The latest announce- ment is the purchase of the Spring- | field News, an afternoon paper, the Springfleld Republican, every morning. The Republican an- nounces the change in today's paper and the public is informed that the Daily News will be continued as a separate and distinct paper in the future, as in the past. The Springfield Republican has =o long held a unique position in the newspaper world that this move will excite much interest. The Daily News might be said to be well nizh its opposite in methods and policy In addition the News sells for a. cent while the Republican has been a three cent daily right along. This business change, it is under- stood, is not to affect the field of either newspaper. And vet the sociation. will surely make other dif- ference. It cannot be otherwise. The important thing is that both papers can gain in inivence by taking on a little of each other's methods, while the business alliance in time will re- dound to the benefit of hoth and general public good in the ate sphere of influence by immedi- ‘Windows.

Although “Who's Who in America’” shows that Vietor Murdock of Kansas is forty-four years o.d, he would ap- pear to be a typical representative of a younger generation that has neglect- ed its Bible and may not safely ven- ture to adorn its literary style with itiblical allusion, Mr. Murdock an- nounces his readiness ‘to say flat- footedly that we progresgives are go ing into the 1916 fight as a party and [~ » to win." In this utterance he trod the politi- cian’s familiar ground sarely enough, but unfortunately he was tempted to say furthed that the progressive plat- form had become ‘“the Ark of the Covenant” to hundreds of thousands of “‘aggressive Americans” and that “there is not a township anywhere without its group of Hituties devoted scltly to its preservation.” Mr. Roosevelt has likened the pro- gressives to the “hosts of Armaged- con” and Mr. Murdock seems to wish to frame his political pronouncements after the models furnished by his ad- mired chief, but when he describes the taithful members of his party as ‘‘Hit- tites” he invites the smile of any half- grown youngster who knows the in- side of a Sunday school. Apparently Mr. Murdock has forgoiten that the Hittites were one of the condemned rations that were driven out of the promised land by chosen and victori- ous Israel. In consequence he has piundered into Biblicai allusion whereby party’s campaign of 1916 with a pro- phecy of disaster, a “Labor’'s Peace Council.” (Waterbury Democrat.) “Labor's National Peace Council” continues to be somewhat of an enigma to the general public. The dispute still rages as to whether it deserves its title—whether it really represents labor, or is national in scope, or is working sincerely peace. At the recent Washington convention, it will be remembered, there was a hot fight over the adop tion of resolutions calling for a gov~ ernment embargo on the munitions traflic. At that time it was charged that pro-Germans propagandists had got labor organizations to join the “council” by false pretenses, and several labor leaders rebelled, with the declaration that they were op- posed to an embargo and resented the attempt to hitch American or- ganized labor to the German cause, The climax of that rebellion has come in the resignation of Milton Snelling as vice president of the “Peace Council,” Snelling is wide- ly known ae first vice-president of the International Union of Steam and Operating Engineers of America. He accuses the council leaders of baa faith, saying that one of them him: “We want to stop the exporta- tion of munitions to the allies. see, Germany can the munitions she under the auspices of this organiza- tion that Wiiliam J.
