is computed that in this year there will be laid in the 1'nited
ot,000 tons of railroad iron, of which only oO.OOu tons will
be manufactured in this country. The price of this iron is now $05 per ton. and is expected soon to be ST.". or $0. At thus rate, about $20,000,000 will be expended for railroad iron in the coming year. Ohio State Journal. The figures from the interesting column of bygone days in the Ohio State Journal telling of when the country made only one-seventh of its rails. Today the Gary plant alone can turn out in fifteen weeks an amount equal to the total number of rails used in this country in IS.".:!. If we became independent of Europe in the matter of rails long ago, it i only a matter of twentyfive years or so that we first produced tin plate in this country. Today tin mills of Gary constitute one of the biggest industries in Indiana.! Rut we are not wholly independent of Europe in the matter of manufactured products. The great war has shown that we lacked benzol, dye making and nitrate facilities, not to count a host of other things. Since then our benzol production has placed us on an independent basis and the dye situation has opened our eyes. The coke ovens here and elsewhere afford the solution if we develop their potential resources.

Left to right, top: David Lloyd George, A. Bonar Law and Iord Milner. Bottom : Earl Curzon and Arthur Henderson. The five men here shown compose the war council, headed by David Lloyd George, which will dictate all war policies for Great Britain. The pioup will hold daily sessions directing the prosecution of the war and the freedom of Lloyd Georpe, Lord Milner and Mr. Henderson from departmental duties will allow them tc devote all their time to the war council. The work of the exchequer and the government leadership in the house of commons will absorb most of Honar Law's time, and attendance on the house of lords will necessitate Karl Curzon's absence from the council frequently. So that Lloyd George, Lord Milner and Mr. Henderson will be the chief directors of the war.

and what we take for granted Kansas makes a loud noise over. The Kansas 1 the world knows .about and in which It has almost come to believe itself, ? I a faction built up by William Allen White and the late Charles lilakely of '
the Kansas City Star. The real Kansas is revealed through the joints at Topeka and the sanctimonies of Senator ltristow. Harring lugalls, White and Murdock. it hasn't risen above the dead lever of mediocrity in a generation, says Tom P.odine in the Paris (Mo.) Mercury, and Tom ought to know.
UNDESERVED COMMENDATION. Governor Ralston in his concluding legislative message handsomely pats h'mself upon the back and remarks in a self-laudatory fashion that his administration not only lifted the burdens left by previous administrations but accomplished great things on its own account. It would be difficult, indeed, to brew a bigger bowl of bunk. Thanks to a state levy that was mcreased twajty-five per cent, the inheritance tax law, and corporation fees aggregating over $600,00'), the income of Indiana during Governor Ralston's administration has been in excess of ten millions of dollars greater than during any rr;vious administration. Xoc only this but it had a smaller sum to pay on 'th state debt that any of the previous five administrations save one. There has teen a regular flood of gold into the state treasury and it lias been dis-sipitc-J wantonly and recklessly. Salaries have been raised all along the line, s cores of useless employes have been attached to the public service, ant Hie expense of state administration increased in a scandalous manner. Go e.t -,ior Ilalston now recommends that a republican legislature reduce the tax l'?'.v which a democratic legislature raised, and it is highly probable that such s-ction will be taken. Certainly it will if Mr. Goodrich as governor has his way. The state's income is now in excess of Us legitimate needs and
JUST SUPPOSE. What would happen if the captains of industry some day should strike, shut down every factory, turn out every employe and empty every pay envelope and dinner pail? What would happen if the railroad managers of the country some morning shotifd announce a strike, turn every locomotive in to the roundhouse, leave every car on a siding and stop all freight and passenger transportation? How long would the suffering public endure this kind of imposition? How long would this tyranny last? Let us all do some thinking before it is too late. Wages of railway men, trolley workers and waiters and the price of milk may be insufficient. We are not passing upon this question. We are for big wages and big business they go together. We are referring to the fact that justice is more easily secured by arbitration than by violence and that the public, which always pays the bill and suffers most, has a right to declare in favor of arbitration and against violence. Isn't it time that we appreciated our dependence of one upon another and that we cannot have one interest of one person suffer without having other interests and other persons suffer? Isn't it time for general concurrence in a plan of arbitration that shall settle the struggles over wages and hours constantly occurring in every part of the country? The public, which is the greatest sufferer, holds the power in its own hands if it. would only wield it. Yet it yields this power to demagogues, disturbers and self-seekers of all types and stripes. Out with them! Says John Sliecher in Leslie's.

KANSAS AND PROHIBITION. K-tnsas has five automobiles to one bath tub, according to the advertisement of a plumber appearing in the Osborne Farmer, and it is to be regretted that -Senator Reed did not have these convincing figures at hand while making his caustic reply to the' attack made by Senator Thompson of that state on "wc" Missouri. Kansas refuses to accept the gospel of water in-udc or out, and where booze is not obtainable seeks forgetfulness in gasoline. It is be
coming; a debatable question as to which is underfhining the morals of the ! tiikv shipped out 6fi.nno.ooo tons of

As long as it is the "high moral" question that must : iron ore from the Lake Superior counnteCa worry us, the automobile is no mean factor and claims its harvest of : tr in 191fi; alHi what 3 more, one rUhtli of it tame down this wa. death and shame along with the hated saloon.

The theory of "substitution" that is if you crush one vice another takes its place, has some foundation in fact, and in this connection observant newsaper readers cannot but have noticed the number and frequency of certain type? of crime in Kansas. Other states may have more murders, but none so many murders marked by atrocity, shrouded in mystery, or in whien. the sex urg" is so prevailingly the motive. In no other state have women more frequently thrown off all civilized restraint and given themselves over to elemental ferocities like that of tarring and feathering

obessed of rottenness. Among no other agricultural people at least does unnatural crime of the kind mentioned seem so prevalent this from newspaper reading only, but an impression, we are convinced, which a careful sociological investigation would confirm. Even at this, the worst remains to be said. In Kansas appearances answer for fact. Its chief vice as a state is its insincerity. Psychologically it is a double cross between Uriah Heap and Col. Sellers. Xo-claims it makes will bear investigation and in real social and political progress it has been outstripped by Missouri and nearly every other state in the west. In honest and courageous leadership it has been surpassed by all. In common parlance, it is a "staller" and when it isn't stalling is whimpering an ancient piety. Notoriety is the breath of its
