CHEER TJP FRIENDS. Democratic newspapers are exhibiting a lot of unnecessary concern over the republican national convention. It is highly regrettable that it is not been run to suit the democrats. They view with much alarm the criticism that has been voiced about the unfortunate occupant of the White House forgetting for a moment that what he has so far re ceived isn't a marker to what he is going to get during the. next few months. Our friends, the democrats are also fearfully concerned lest there be disharmony

HE KEPT US OUT OF SUGARThe National Sugar Equilizatton Board could have bought fcr the United States the entire Cuban sugar crop in August of last year at 6 3-4 cents a pound and sought permission of President Wilson to do so. Thl request was renewed in Nocember of the same year. In both cases the president acknowledged receipt of the letters containing the requests but failed to give the board h required authority to make he purchase.. In 19 IS he price paid the producers for Ixuisiana sugar was nine tents a pound. In 1919 Louisiana had but a hair crop and the attorney-general gave the

Louisiana cane farmers the privilege of selling their

pound. This

producers of other

other kinds of

sugar, to charge largely what they please, and these two circumstances now are responsible for the fact that the American public is paying about thirty cents a pound for sugar that it should be buying for something like eleven or twelve cents. It is estimated that as a resuH of this bungling method of handling the sugar fcltuation the American people will be mulcted cf a sum of money variously figured $800,000,000 to' $ 1 .000,000.000. No excuse has been advanced so far as we ar aware for the president's failure to srllow the Equalization Hoard to buy the Cuban crop. Of the Louisiana dea' Representative Louis W. Fairfield, of Indiana, says: , "Thus the government undertook to. compensate the sugar dealers of Iouisiana for their crop failure by permitting them to fix the price at 18 cents when at the same time the government knew perfectly well hat Iiouisiana produces but a tithe of the sugar used in the country. In the same reasoning, if any state had raised but half its usual crop' of wheat the government might have justified itself in permitting the farmer to charge $4 per bufhel for wheat and thus have

HELPFUL ADVERSITY. A period of financial stringency would be bene7 ficial to industry thinks one manufacturer who finds that easy money has led to slip-shod methods in his factory, says the Fafayette Journal. With keener competition ahead, and a tightening situation all around, he began to take stock of conditions. He finds throughout his institution what he calls a "lackadaisical" spirit. Orders have to be repeated many times, and then rigidly followed up. Work, is careless and many mistakes are made. The trcub'e extends from the highest executive to the lowliest emj pioye. Part of this indifferent attitude he ascribes to the recation from war strain but mostly he thinks it it the result of too much prosperity. "When money, rolls in, regardless of effort," he says, "the tendency is to become slipshod. The big profits cover the mistakes, and with the loss of penalties comes carelessness. '" A period of deflation, he thinks, will mean that mistakes will not be countenanced so readily in either executive or workman, and a better morale generally will be the result. The indifferent executive and the Inefficient workman are not the only ones who ned to do.a little clear thinking along these lines. There is also the public which has cheerfully paid the extravagant prices bred

ernment has no excuse for the bungling manner in which this sugar situation haa been handled. The American people are paying the bill. Even now. if the department of justice would act as it is empowered by law to act, the upward movement of sugar cculd be arrested. The unfortunate long-continued absence of the chief executive in Europe, coupied with his unfortunate and most lamentable sickness, has deprived the American people of the service of their chief executive in full power and strength for 14 months cf the time since December of 191?. In other words, for 14 months out of 17 the chief executive of the nation has been unable because of absence or illness to properly attend to the domestic affairs of a nation of 110.ooo.O0f people."
