GOOD REASON, TOO. We have received the usual annual request to ask citizens to do their Christmas shopping early. Tt comes from the Consumers' League, an organization devoted to the improvement of industrial conditions for women and grirlf. The object is commendable and the request should be cheerfully complied with. As good a plea as any is the following "war chant" of the league: Buy before the rush comes V?uy hefore the crush comes. Duy before the slush comes - -Puy your presents now! V'hethfr they're for surly Husband or for curly i ittle tots or grandpapas--

Oh, buy your presents now: Persons to whom this fails to appeal may be interested in learning tfcat merchants cheerfully admit that prices are not at tcp notch, aqd as the days go by the cost will advance.

STORM CLOUDS. It takes no keea perception to see that stera'r or later-more probacy in the near future there will be indict. urrest. in America of a marked and unprecedented de.?ree. 'Without doubt it will be widespread. The early signtU3 are the. dissensions arising out of the Adamson law, the growing demand of all railway employes to share in the benefits received by the brotherhoods, the formation of a capitalistic association, supposedly backed by J. P. Morgan, to appose the sentiment for an eight-hour day extendint; to all branches of, industry; the rising cost of living, and the financial readjustment that will ensue when the European war ends. A great contributing factor to restlessness now being manifested is the cheapening of the dollar in other words, the constantly increasing c?t of clothes, of foodstuffs, of service. It is our jhare of the war burden, but in this country, where we are not at war acd where there is not the same motive for i.atriotism and the same widespread Subordination of the individual good to tne welfare of the state, there is complaint and deep-seated complaint. Many great corporations, making millions, have endeavored to let employes sbare in their huge profits; others have not. been so generous. But it seems the pay envelope can't keep apace with living costs. Still another contributing factor is the fast-growing belief that eight hours is an ample day's work, and whether employers like it or not, the reallzalion that there should be more time for recreation, rest and pleasure is one that is not lessening in its scope. On the contrary, it gains in momentum. Whatever the disturbing signs now, they cannot help but be accentuated when peace comes to Europe. What kind of a reaction there will be it is within no man's province to predict. The outlook is that after a temporary lull thing3 will again hum in America as we aid in the great construction work. Perhaps the reaction will bring a lull of shorter or longer length, of decreased wages and there should be a lower cost of -living,

but will there? Or of present wages with no reduction in daily expenses, and consequently more irritation. Just what will happen for a time after peace ensues Is hardly within the csope of human prediction. Eminently informed men in the financial throne rooms of London, Pari3 and New York have essayed predictions, but like profound students of economics they also differ in their analysis. This is hardly a war that has results based on precedents; and as yet the man has rot appeared who is able to give assuring forecasts. , Indeed, the future is one quite veiled, but we may augur from its present significant fo-.-rr.:ors that here in America we will have to fac? crises of ?reat import.

WHAT ABOUT IT? Wash-in?;! Nov. 24. To stave off a feared disastrous car shortage, all railroads of the country were today ordere'd to return to the homes lines as soon as possible all fruit and refrigerator cars, the conference committee on car efficiency announced. The committee is studying the freight transportation problem in connection with the interstate commerce commission's probe in con- . nectlon with the same subject. Dispatch in yesterday's Times. And in the meantime, what are they going to do about the thousands of empty cars in the railroad yards that are being shunted back and forth lor demurrage reasons between Chicago and Hammond? Do the railroads think people are foolish hitherabouts? Do they think reporters can't see anything? When you see a string of "empties" moving west in the daytime and come back east at night on the same road, what are you to think, anyway? And then you hear car shortage yelled from the house top?!

LITERATURE'S LOSS. Death is taking many shining literary marks. With the passing of .lack London it Is again called to mind that the recent toll has been heavy. The masterful Richard Harding Davis, Norman Duncan, he of the charming Labrador and Newfoundland stories, F. Hopklnson Smith, the graceful writer of the brave days when rag carpet3 were the rage, and last but not least, the Immortal Sienkiewicz himself. The world can hardly afford to lose such minds.
