Burieson was made possible and the country has had to tel. erate him because of President Wilson. Naturally, therefore, Burleson is duty bound to work his head off for the pres ident and it is a significant statement which he makes Wien, following the ans nouncement to the effeet that McAdoo was going to be the nominee of the par- ty ,he said, “This is a Wilson conven-. tion. There is no use trying to deceive ourselves and make it appear that the delegates are going to act independent- ly of the president's views. The mantle of Jefferson and Jackson has fallen upon. Woodrow Wilson; he is the great leader of the democratic party. The conveution Is going to do his will” There were those who deplored the out, spoken manner in which the pestmaster! general voiced his beliefs, but what he saild was only in keeping With the very mpression that had been galned from the activities in connection with the con- vention. It has been evident that the president intended to guide that gather- ing and if the party intends to uphold his leadership there is nothing else for » convention te do but to let his in- fluence and wishes prevail. They have directed democratic aetion in Washing- ton for a long time, and as long as they have supported his policies during bis ministration it is no time to desert now. What effect those who are working amaiost such domination will have re- maing to be seen. Evidence of the Wil son control is reflected in the increasing strength credited to McAdoo. The kick- ing out of the convention of Senator Reed showed where the control was. Whether it will serve to keep the opposition quiet in the convention is a problem. Burleson in his plain and unvarnished talk recognizes what js needed to try to continue the present dynasty and what is mere natural than along with that should go the “erown prince?” OUR SUGAR. Everything that tends to Improve the tlook for sugar and the lowering of the is of course eagerly welcomed. As- to the latest issue of the Sugar there appears to be a tempor- decline in the price of raw sugar :nd a slight letting up in the demand for refined. But the canning seasen haen't struek on full blast as vet so what looks better just at present is like- ¥ to be quiekly changed and semt sky- rocketing in the other direction at a momeat's netice. In a previous issue of the Sugar Bul- the reason for the sugar situation today attributed to the failure of the oduetion to equal the demands, al- though that does not justify the existing igh prices that are being demanded, or get around the fact that the country could have been served during the pres- year at a far lower price had the propergattention been given to the matter when it was brought to the notice of the proper authorities last summer. During the year 1919 there was 3 pro- uction of over 88 and a half billion s of sugar which was a decpease of over seven billons pounds from the 1913 produetion. This had the effect of g the per capita production almest three pounds. This reduction was due teo \ large extent to the fact that the sugar g areas of Europe were other- engaged, because ships were not avajlable to tramsport it from some of the remote fields and the consequence was that the burden of supplying the world's needs fell upon Cuba. In this eonnection it is to be realtzed that there was a curtailment la consump- tion during the war because sugar was not available and was rationed, but pro- duetion has not gotten baek to where it was in 19183 while the demand for sugar in this eountry is greater than ever, there being an increase of five pounds per eapita over six years ago. With conditions far from nermal the failure to buy such sugar as this eoun- try would need this year at a reasonable price and the high rate autherised for Louisiana gmgar opened the way for the gouging of the American consumer and there promises to be only slight relief antil produetion again gets back more early to mormal rice wise CAMPAIGN FPUNDS. With the announcement being made by Chairman Thompson of the republiean national committee on waye and means that contributions to the party campaign fund will be limited to $1,000 it is beund lo be aceepted as a sound and sensfble move. It is fully upderstood what the clatms are that have been made regard- ng boodie in other years and in the sampaign leading up to the nemination of the republican candidate. Although it has not been shown as the result of the thorough investigation that Ihe. money pat out by the candidates for the republican nomination was urjustly spent, but on the other hand was spent for purposes of publicity and in a legtti- mate manper, it is only nastral that there should be a desire on the part of the campaign managers, as well as the candidates that such funds as are nmoed- eod for campaign purposes should come from the many rather thsn the few a2d consequently that the many under the|tion lirsited « contributions would make up for the few large ones under the unlimited vian. Senator Handing ecarried on a differ- ent kind of a campaign before the party convention than did many of the others.

That the taste was sitisfaetory is indieated by the amount that was drunk, that there are these whoe are willing to trust any dispensers of alleged liguer is quite clearly demonstrated but it doesn't appear that the constitutions of these who have made the ]atept test are any more rugged than those Who proceeded them.

It is coming to be recognized that the demands which are being made by the railroads for an income sufficient to not only keep them in eperation but to allow a fair income are not unwarranted. There is & disposition to allew eenpider- ate treatment to eapital -and it j& only proper, just the same ep jabor ghould get Wwhat it is entitled te. In this connection it is interesting to mote that the public utilities commission of Massachusetts, in ragpponée to a re- quest from the interstate commeres com- mission for a statement of ity views re-! garding an inerease in rates for the railroads amounting approximately te 25 per cent., takes the important pesition that “serious copsequencées will follow a continged starving property” and that “unless adequate income is allowed the railroads the public will mot only be de- prived of the preper facilities but will actually rum serious risks of life and limb while traveling.” The Magsachu- setts commission thus goes on record as favoring the increase for the gaed of all coneerned, gafety and improved transpor- tation faeilities. The country has witnessed the effect of denying the railroads the means of keeping up With the develepment of the country. Therg are today greater de- mands made of the rosds than they can meet. They are opliged to mest chang- ing conditions just the same &s other corporations, or as the individual, and it is quite apparemt that when they ean demonstrate that their inecome is not suf- ficient te take care of the upkeep, to provide the required inerease in roiling stock and e get & ressonable refurm on their investment it is evident that their pleas for relief are emtitied to comsiger- ate attentiom.

When we can extinguish our own float- ing debt no doubt our exchange on New York will improve. ing in these figures to upset the uifues- tionable fact that until a country pro- duces enough to pay for its imports, its exehange with the exporting coun- tries must be unfavorable.

Army Training.—The great span roof of Cannon Street station is undersoing repair. Human flies crawl ameng the iron rafters, and the station is noisy with the clanging of riveters at work. Communication between the roofmen and the storekeepers on the platform is ene of the many difficulties with which the workmen have te contend. Yesterday they discovered a solution to their prob- lem.

The Ukrainian factories, while still in pri- vate hands, are eomtrolled and assisted by the government and it is to these sources we may look most hopefully for the extra lump in our tea.
