This is a big country and it has a large population. It requires a great quantity of supplies to take care of the daily needs of the consumers and some provision has.to be made to see that the demands are met’from day to day. Every man, woman and child expects to get about three square meals a day and for the most part they look for the regular channels of business to provide it. And in this connection we know that the country is steadily growing. The demands are greater from year to year, mean- ing of course that larger provisions must be made for supplying the de- mands as the months reil by. But regardless of this situation and regardless of the need ,of maintain- ing a supply that will be sufficient to take care of the demands, it is per- fectly apparent that there should® be no teleration of the cornering schemes that are put into operation not for the purpose of seeing that the require- ments of the consumers are met but to boost prices and to force everyone who eats to contribute te the rapid turning out of get-rich-quick Wailing- fords. The steps which are being taken at the present time by the federal and te authorities to take food supplies at are being hoarded by speculators, big business housess and other in- dividuals should have been started months ago. Instead of indicating a policy of toleration of such holding and profiteering action should have been taken that weuld have bristled with discouragement. ,Cold storage houses have been ghown to be of as great value to the country as the ice box is to the home, but they have likewise beern found to be open tol gross misuse, and whenever such is disclosed it is time for a rebuke that amounts to more thap a slap on the wrist. Those who are holding up foedstuffs and have been doing so for| riany months when the consumer as| the result is being made to pay an anjustified price for his daily bread should be made examples of. Tne thing to do is to keep after the pro- fiteers regardless ot the goods he deals | in THE SECOND VETO, No other action was anticipated than that which has been taken by Presi- dent Wilson in vetoing,for a sezond time legislation intended to bring! about a repeal of the daylight si,ing law. - Persistent as has been the ef- fort to take this law off the statute books, there is no evidence that it represents the desire of a majority of the people in spite of the fact tnat -t has received a majority in crongress each time the matter has beca prezent- ed Evervthing points to the fact that it is being used for political benefit re- gardless of the effect that the repeal would have upon the whole country! and regardiess of the great amount of good that it has done and will con- tinue to do as long as it is retained. The president in refusing to approve | the bill for the second time fully ap- jare unable to get coal with which to also have provisions which certain to get strong epposition. tor Dillingh: Vermont am of the treatn and Japan the as other countries and according he bill' there would be no restrictio those countries in the western |’ hemisphere. An analysis of this plan during-the five yeers before the ‘but only about a third of those wh came from Europe, while number would be very small tendency would be to encourage those who are the more d le and re- strict those who are less adapted to our civilization. It is only one of the many plans but it should get the con- sideration it deserves' ir solving the immigration puzzle. RIDING TO A FALL. Though he may not like to, Car- ranza must admit that trouble is pil- ing up for him and his country, and that though he may have passed through some storm periods and is inclined to boast of h#s accomplish- ments as tending to reestablish peace in the republfe to the south it is to a large degree offeet by the develop- ments that are taking place. Carranza has ridden a high horse: In spite of all that has been done for Mexico by this country and all that has been done for Carranza by the present administcation, he still main- tains the same haughty, stubborn dis- position that has characterized him from the start. He shows a disposi- tion to disregard the rights and prep- erty of Americans. The fact that hundreds of Amerieans have been murdered in his country within the past few years doesn't give him any eoncern. He is basking in the sun- shine of that well known statement that we are pursuing a pelicy of watchful waiting toward his country and probably chuckles every time a finger is shaken at him when he thoreughly understands that it sheuld be a fist. Following the publicity regarding the state department’s threat of a radical change of policy toward Mexi- co comeg the anneuncement that the British echarge eof archives, the only representative of = that coumtry in Mexico, has been ordered to leave and the ™aim that Carranza is angry be- cauge it has been declared in the Brit- ish house of dpmmons that his gevern- ment had not been recognized beeause it does not and is not willing to fur- nish a guarantee of pretection to Brit ish subjects and their preperties. Carranza doesn’t like criticism and particularly so when it is honest. He deesn’'t like to be teld what he must do even though it invelves the friend- ly relations with other countries, but if he would but stop, look and listen he cannot fail to realize that the con- tinuance of his policy simply means an early end and the fact that he has insisted upon riding a highhorse will simply make the fall all the greater. THE COAL QUTLOQOK. The people of the eouniry have been in a quandary for months regarding the coa) situation. There sre those who have felt that in this cenmnectién as well as others that the wisest course was to prepare against what has been claimed would be anether coal short- age by getting their bins filled early. Where some have succeeded others have failed though their orders may be in. Not only has the consumer experi- enced difficulty in getting his winter supply but the dealers have alse run up against a snag. Though thev as well as the public are told that there is an abundance of certain siges, while shortages already exist in others, they fill orders and in some instances point | to empty bins to back up ther state- ments. Even now the consumes heing prepared for an advance 'm the price and yet along in the spriaz the re- ports showed that ‘iic mines were being operated far below - capacity. Even when the user was being ursed to fill his bins in order ic make sure of his supply and to zet it at the low- est’ figure the coal was not being mined in sufficient quantivy ta mect the demands even thoi;l: it eoull rot fail to be recogmizd that consun tion would be just i lirge as over, if in fact it would not be large: . In spite of the advice to get osal in early everything appears to have been done at the point of production to creats a condition that weuld boost the price, and as usual in such in- preciates the injustice that would be involved at a time when there is ai great and growing need for increased| production, and when, ever though the' war is over, the country has just as! good reasen as ever for eliminating' needless waste. i In spite of the fact that this new attempt to defeat davlight savingi stands on its own feet instead of being: made a rider to an important appro-: priation measure, there is just as much: reason, judging it on its meriis why | those same members of congress who refused te override the previeus veto: should do the same thing 2 second ! time. It isn’t legislation for a few but| legislation that will be of benefit to the | many that is wanted and such wili be! secured through the sustaining of the| veto rather than through overriding| it. We may not like to follow Furope| but this is an instances where it is| for our interests to do so. THE IMMIGRATION PUZZLE i The questfon of immigration is -al-| ways a live one. Before the war as| well as since there was much said on! the matter of regulation. The literacy test has been put into effect and still | there is a demand for further restric- | tiens. The feeling prevazils that there: should be a curtailment in the number | of those who are admitted to the country and yet at the same time it cannot fail to be observed with the eonditions what they are, with thou- sands of pesple zoing back to the old country and with the need for more labor if there is going to be an im- ereased productien, that we must look to seme extent to those who come frem other countries to relieve the situation. N There are those who have proposed the shutting off of immigration entire- ly for a certain period of time, while others have urged the cutting dewn of the number admitted so that only ! arini sfances the greatest hardship that result therefrom will fall upen those who are the least able to bear it. S EDITORIAL NOTES. Tt deevn’t look much as if Carranza wa: getting ready to join the league ! of netioas.

There's something the matter when the dealers say “We lack ecoal.”” and the mine owners say there is ‘me searcity.” A good part of Nerwich can sym- pathize with those in New Yerk who are being made to walk because of a raiiway strike.

Fashions in linens as well as clothes change so quickly that stering away money. which increases itself by adding interest, instead of ac- eumulating a gquestionable’ outfit, is real preparedness for the up-to-date bride. Thrift and war savings stamps offer an.ideal method for acouiring a trousseau fund. Thrift stamps cost a quarter each and 16 of them plus a few cents are exchangeable for a war sav- ings stamp, paying over 4 per cent. interest. “Nething te show for it” is descrip- tive of that great swamn which ab- sorbs thoughtlessly . spent pennies. nickels, dimes and _quarters. swamp ean be drained and made into fertile land by planting the pennies. nickels. dimes and quarters in thrift and war savings stamps.

Furniture that is sligthly scratched —almost any furniture, in fact—looks | 50 per cent. better if treated to a rub- bing with liquid wax once in so often.
