With his departure from France on his return te this country, it was but natural that General Pershing. who been in command of the American forces sent to participate in the war in Europe and under whose guidance they materially il outcome of the struggle, should have been given a rousing sendoff by the French autherities. His arrival in France as the head-of our army over iwo Years ago was an unusual affair. This country has not been accus- romed to send its forces to Europe for battle. but circumstances required General Pershing was picked te lead them and though he commanded the ning trained Yankees” he was able by the numbers and the equip- ment provided for him, as well as the quick nsportation of the troop: vhich Germany never believed eould be accomplished in time to be of any service, to turn the tide of battle and aid in winning the war for right and humanity nee every reason for spe- ~ially marking the departure of the an commander, termed by Tar- 1 as “a great friend eof all of us, for he ns a victor after rendering signal service and completing the task was undertaken But even as nce man s appreciation of iis work, it is equally fitting that this ry should see that no stones are unturned in giving him the welcome that he deserves on g home.

Seemingly with the idea of sver- ceming the detrimental features and restricting cold storage to servic: that will meet the reauirements of the con- mer the agrimi'iusa. commisiec of wer house of congress 11s de- ipon a bill that will impe e wow rs upon (old storage Mo i:es and those using them. By the revela-! tions that have been made relative to ie hoarding that has been carried on for the purpose of pushing up prices | getting a handsome rakeoff | through taking advantage of the fa- he benefits furnished by cold storage, here is need of additional regulduons in order to prevent this very aid to preservation and distribution from being misused Wita that aim in view the house agricultural committee proposes that| in the future all goods placed in cold storage should be stamped, that an- other stamp should be affixed when it| is taken out and that no foodstuffs| old storage for overi the committee goes | can be kept twelve months. I into this matter as it should, and| there seems to be reason for believing that such is its intention since there is a provision for a tion and regulation by the department of agricuiture, it will guard against suen food as may have been in one storage place for several months being repeatedly transferred so that its stay in cold storage will be indefinite and the intent of the law overcome. Cold orage is*certainly needed but the es to which it has been put call for the proper protection of the pocket- books and health of the consumers. CLAIMS ON MEXICO. It we are to judge from his recent ree amending the law on claims in Mexico, Carranza has seen the wis- dom of receding from his stiff-necked position so lonz maintained and un- less we are greatly mistaken he is do- ng what he should have done some time ago though how he could have expected to avoid the claims for dam- ages for losses is difficult to under- stand. It has taken some time nevertheless for hym to get around to recognizing the fact that Mexico must settle for the losses during the rebellions lead- ns up to the recognition of his gov- ernment, and to aamit that it must -xpect to pay those that have been sustained as the result of the regional revolts that have occurred from time to time, some of witich are still be- ing maintained Carranza by his acts is doing what other governments recognize that they are otlized to do under similar cir- cumstances, although it has taken nearly two an? a half years for him to| come 16 the point of declaring it. The fact that the nations that have claims mgainst Mexico have been busy in other directiops m tent account for t tention, but it is apparent that he saw that it could not longer be aided in the success-| z task he hasgperformed it well and | he is deserving of all honors that go| .. £%| name of William G.

Up in Massachusetts interest is be- ing aroused in an effort to overcome the rapid deforestation that is taking place. This is being started by means of an initiative petition to the legisla- ture in behalf of a law that would au- thorize the forest commission of the state to acquire 250.000 acres of land for forest purposes within a period of ten years, the land to be bought at a price not in excess per acre of what is already fixed for the acquiring of land by that body or such fgure as the legislature might fix. In cur neighboring state as it is in Connecticut and quite generally throughout eastern statés, the wood- i ed aregs are being fast cut off. Large seetions that wére ond¢e héavily wood- ed are today bare. The sawmill ms come and gone, and it has denc a thorough job. which the woodchopper has beén at: work is fitted at the present time only for the growing of timber, but in- stead of attention being given to the laying out of forests wheré the trees have been cut thoseé sections are bhe- ing allowed to grow up to brush. Some day, if fires do not keep down the new growth each year there will be more woodland byt it will never be as pro- ductive by beéing disrégardéd and al- lowed to grew up unguided, as it would if attention was giveén to set- ting out trees in much thé sameé man- ner as other lands are cultivatéd. ¥or the interests of the staté and particulariy those séctions which are fitted enly for the productioh of tim- was given thereto, and if the in- should be given théreto, and if the in- dividual owners are not intérested it is entirely proper that the state should step in and guide thé work. Through such examples it ought not to take long for the individuals to see the importance of doing likewise. PASSING PUBLIC OFFICIALS. It was not so lons ago that the railroads of the country were denied the privilege of giving passes over their lines to anyonme they pleased. This was done because it was consid- ered an injustice to the traveling pub- lic and causéd the roads t6 be de- prived of much deseérved revenue. The change was regarded as beneficial for the giving of passes had been carried to the limit and bevond, but it was anticipated that the new rule would be so generally enforced that passes would become as scarce as hen's teeth. Such however does not appear to Be the case for the railroad administra- tion in its report to the senate shows that there are 4,000 people who have| been given passes which permit them to travel on all lines controlled by the administration. In other words they could go from one end of the country [ to the other without paying railroad fare. That passes should be issued to railroad officials apd their families however does not cause much surprise when one stops to think of the pro- miscuous manner in which they were formerly distributed, but when this list of 4,800 is found to conmtain the secretary of the treasury, even after he has severed his comnection with the railroad administratien and the gov-! ernment it is indeed a bit surprising. And in view of the fact that he has been said to have taken a $100.606 job in the moving picture business it is astonishing that he should have been willing to have accepted such passes as were issued to him and his family. The claim is made that it was dene because he is “special eounsel for the state of New York” but only those who devote their entire time to rail- | road work were supposed to get free! rides, and it can hardly be said that all his time is given to this New York state job. But even were that 8, why hould public officiais be specially fa- | vored in that respect? EDITORIAL NOTES.

Washington, Sept. 1.—Pandory’s bex have a bigger assortment of surprises ‘than the administration has 16t loose and sprung on cOngress as things 1ot to accomplished until the peace treatly signed. According to the Lig at.ck held over its head, there can be no e, no lower cost of liv- ing, no letlip in 1labor troubles, no “wet zéne¢,” mo adjournment of con- and no trade with Germany until senate swallows the league of na- tions with the i's dotted and the t's crossed. The administration said it didn’t know we were trading with Ger- many at theé present time, although the department of commerce shows that a lively trade amounting to many million dollars a month has lorg been going on by explicit direction of the department of state, between _the United States and Germany. Just what effect such statements will have on the people of the country is prob- lemaical,.but congress is t0o near the base of news source. and federal rec- ords to be hoodwinked into giving credence to propaganda statements coming in from organizations which use fancies for facts and which use the president's utterances as a basis for their own advancement. Out here we hear many things about “labor un- rest,” as the recent strikes are politely called by men who want, labor union support for their pet theories. The time of congress has been taken up the past week by committee hearings in which men of prominence from all parts of the country have takem part. The foreign relations committee gave much time to hearing representatives of Much of the land onilIrish freedom, who made impassioned Cochran, with a| rich brogue and voice so powerful that| Zlass endants of the! speeches. Bourke the glittering ecut chande! overhead fairly danced, de- nounced the league as a death blow to the freedom of small nations; and when Frank P. Walsh. former member of the war labor board, designated the league in its present form as a “per- wvérsion ef justice” thie crowd that fill- ed the great committee room and surged far out into the marble corri- dors was roused to the white heat of enthusiasm and cheered, applauded and shouted their approval to his elo- quent plea for Irish freedom. Seated at the long committee tabie were Senators Lodge, Brandegee and Moses, represénting New 'England. and Sena- tor Walsh, Irish democrat and senator from Massachusetts, was in constant attendance. Senators Braundegee and Moses took an active part in question- ing the speakers and both asked per- tinent questions as to the details of the vain attempt of Irish representa- tives to gain a hearing at the Paris conference. Senator Brandegee wa outspoken in urzing the Inish repre- sentatives be given ample t be given a fair show.by the United States senate, and the time fof the Irish hearing was extended. / The hearing was dramatic in the extreme. Perhaps the testimony of Col. Wil liam Jénnings Bryan before the inter- state commerce committee of the house came mnext in interest. Bryan has a new theory on the railroad si uation. He wants a order of things along that line, where- by each state has one great trunk line owned and operated by the govern-| ment, and all other railroads shall be| cut up and parceled out for control to the states through which they pass. He urzed complete governmeni own- ership for railraads, as soon as it could be brought about, and further sus- gested that if the =zovernment didn't find roads that suited it, it could build ! its own. The fact that such a move would cost ‘the taxpayers five or billion dollars didn’t phase the braskan in the least. He also de lobbying as a whele, but sald i the case of “high moral causes” like suf-| fragé and prehibitien he favored it which raised a big laugh. Speaking of foreign that “The Aktiebolaget, Helsingfors, has nearly completed its new sugar beet factor: at Salo, on the Abo-Helsingfors ra way line.” All of which goes to show Finska that if we enter into internationalism | it won't do to let our twisted. One of the innovations propesed for the 1920 campaign are canned speech- es by orators of note who will shout tongues get eloquently inte phonographs and later on their pelitical speeches will be reeled off to enthusisatic audiences b means of records. This may zo hand in hand with the revival of the 1916 use of movies in campaign wor whereby the activities of a congr man in his daily routine were thrown on screens to show how faithfully the man up for re-election had served b eonstituents. So unless all signs fail, phenegravhic patriotism and movie arguments may play leading roles in the 1920 campaign. Congress is not very well pleased| the attitude of the president ing their proposed recess, a - taking a month off right in the midst of the session to swing around the circle in behalf of measures he personally endorses. Many sena- tors and members. both democrats and republicans. feel that the struction and be} at it work ay. A num- e been tryinz days of rec within reach of congres out the problems of ine ber of bills and resolutions has introduced which. if made lav prevent any future president froin ab- senting himself from the country or the seat of government, and so pro- tect the nation from the many ills and dansers likely to follow absence of its ckief executive. Indications still point to either a re- ‘jcction or stiff amendments of the league of nations. Every now and then a demecratic senator permits a faint tingle of his color on the ques- tion to be seen, even though he does not join openly the ranks of opponents. The attitude of Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, Senator Sbhlel of Tennessee, Senator Thomas of Colo- rado and one or two others on that side of the senate shows plainly that there will Be no solid support by dem- ocrats, and of course Reed, democrat, is one of the stoutest defenders of keeping America out of European en- tanglemants. stood here now that so few fepublicans will support the treaty with more res- ervations that would not stand fire un- der European challenge that its de- feat or amendment is a foregone con- clusion. Commenting on the reilroad situa- tion, Congressman Fourth Connecticut district, a member of the inteéretate commerce committee, said: “We have -had hearings for six’ weeks or mere, and as a fundamental proposition it has been shown that the ower given to regulate the railroads has been used largely heretofore sim- ply as a_power of repression. It Is believed the country appreciates this and it is hoped congress will also ap- preciate that the power of regulation invelves support as much as it does repression. If the law forbids doing bad thinss, It must help do good ones. It is evident that this.view is funda- mental to the other idea that it is the first duty of congress, so far as it leg- islates in the matter, to provide the céuntry with an efficient transporta- tioft machine, }:l':‘ that without proper résources, means proper rates, this ma.c!une cannot be provided.
