DON'T TRY TO FOOL, THE PEOPLE The LaPorte Herald publls-he the following which Is worth w.hile these days: Worthy Candidates and Editors of Newspapers: Gentlemen A political campaign is upon us, and the urge wll sometimes be strong to adopt strong Jangruage methods. Lay off! American readers do cot expect candidates and editors to make fools of themselves. This is an intelligent age. We have had public schools and other efficient schools, children who attended them were taught hieh idea's, which have stuck to moJt of them to manhood and womanhood. Don't make them think that candidates and newspaper editors are low down critters! The public doesn't want personalities, exaggerated ego, political fish stories or piffling partisanship. Partisanship is all light within certain limit:-. The Idea that that all the men on the opposition ticket are fcootleggers. second-story men. and the devil's own is as dead a3 John Barleycorn. Men have been known not to vote the opposition ticket in their lives and remain perfect gentlemen. But that isn't saying that they didn't respect the opinion Of the fellows vctlng the other ticket. There are a great manv people in the United States who are Independent voters; they are on the fence and will stay there. The independent voters hold the balance of power. They will not and should not pay the least attention to rancorous, rabid political clap-trap. What voters and readers of newspapers want is ration..! discussion cf the issues. Bigoted opinion is worthies. Another thing voters demand is unbiased political news. Editors who suppress all news they think will help the opposition party are not helping their party, because they will have fewer readers. Readers demand that the news columns should be wide open to news from all Eides; it it is in the editorial columns that they are privileged to analyze it, express reasonable views and seek to influence readers by proper discussioa of issues.

at per annum, so far as Board of Trade transactions were concerned, and the issuance by the United States Treasury of certificates bearing interest. Those certificates, bearing the highest rate of interest the government has had to pay for money since the Civil War. were issued on obligations for early maturity. The rate is one half per cent lower than the government rate of Gnat bSritain, financialy crippled by five years of war, and approaches the rate that Is being paid by private boiowers (those who are fortunate enough to obtain loans!, and it is very probable that the advance in the government interest rate will result in a further advance in the rates that will have to be paid for money by industry. And incidentally any advance in the treasury rate tends eventually to make for higher rates of discount, thus stressing the scarcity of cnpitirl in this country and in the world.

MEAT PRICES. Every pereon nearly says: "'Oh. I don t eat much meat." and many have positively cut it out cf their everyday living. So much is this the fact, that one would think that the demand for meat would be so reduced that it would begin to make itself felt in the prices. But it hasn't. It takes a pretty good income to keep up the meat diet. The poorer cuts now command as high a price as the best before the war. It takes as much money to keep the table supplied with boiled beef as it used to years aero when the finest roasts were bought. We think sometimes there is some mystic influence at work, when we see the reduction of meat consumption is attended with an increase in the price Of meats. The only remedy is a strike,' a strike against eating meat and that if persisted in would bring meat prices down. It is the only way for the conc-umer to fet justice. The meat barons have no right t i be the richest men on earth.

CAPITAL SCARCER. Sup erCcially, business conditions genera V.y ?how a slight Improvement during June. Actually, however, capital, the fundamental element of business, became increasingly scarce and costly.. The result was a further tightening of the already strained credit situation. Two facts of outstanding significance were the decisions of the finance committee of the Chicago Board of Trade to fix the interest rate for the mcnth of June

"THOU SHALT NOT." The oldest laws in the worl I have been violated uncounted billions of times. They are violated every day of every year and they will be violated similarly throughout time. They are violated so persistently by i-o many people everywhere that some of thorn, at leat, mihi almost be said 'o be dead letters. They are far from that, however The Ten Commandments form the nucleus of virtually all the law, written and unwritten, that we have. They make up the moral law and have been neither weakewd nor strengthened by man. by incorporating them into his statutes. Is It not a curious thing that mere man has found it either necessary or desiranle to legislate to enforce injunctions issued from Heaven? He did so, of course, not with any thought cf making iliem laws, for that already had been dne as completely as it is possible to be done.

In truth, our criminal statutes, founded on

moral laws, are but enforcement acts. If man were different from what he is these latter would be unnecessary. But nan isn't. A great many of him there are who simply will not obey. They have but imperfect respect for any law and none at all for some laws. They make a showing cf reverence for authority, divine or human, only when it is convenient to their purposes so to do. Others are not law-breakers but they might be were they not in fear of the penalties which the laws provide ior those who violate them, or thev feel that, if it were net against the law they would like to do some forbidden things. These ere potential law-breakers. From 'heir re-aetlon to man-made laws we learn the indispensability of the statutes which have been enacted. These same people would be violators of the mornl laws were they r.ot restrained by conscience. whirh imposes its own penalties for evil-doing. From all of which we observe that no law is self-enforcing. Without a penalty clause attached, a criminal statute is worthless. You know even the Commandments are not without their promise of terrible punishment for those who go counter to them. The fundamental moral laws have enforcement acts written into them. And deep in the hearts of all people having faith in things divine or in things human, there is conviction that these laws should be obeyed, however those same people may transgress them. Has it occurred to you that with possib'y one exception there never has been a serious proposition to modify anv of the moral laws, by statutory ?ct? The human conscience rebels against anything like that. There is rather a widespread tendency to excuse a "white lie" as harmless. Rut the prohibition is against lying, which quite properly is held to mean any kind of untruth. It is the law. That particular one is left very largely to the individual conscience for its enforcement, though there are statutes providing severe punishment for lying under certain circumstances. Thou shalt not steal. In the thousands of years since it was ordered fcr the guidance and protection of humans never has one person suggested that the statutes reinforcing the moral law be altered to permit mild thieving, pocket picking or secret pilfering, say while keeping the inhibition against burglary or highway robberv. Xobodv would have the temeritv to nronose the

Constipntioa and bowel trouble can't be helped by strong drugs. The ctoniaeh acd bowels need a vegetable remedy like Dr. Edwards Dandelion Pilij to help them produce a natural, easy movement. iJr. Edwnrds' Dandelion Pills contain no Calomel or injurious drnjjs. They are purely vegetable and teach the bowel to act without physic. They act on the liver, increase- the flow of bile; this, in turn, digesting the food and moving the bowels in a perfectly natural manner. Get a bos todav, and it's goodbye

feltnple reason that the laws that make stealing a crime, but. the moral and the human, are universally recpgnizerl as prohibition laws, they conderr.-! fven the smallest degree of dishonest acquisition of things. To that extent we have universal respect for these laws. We cannot expect anything more in the present Ftate of development of the human conscience. Lawbreakers there will be always The geat majority of the people will respect the laws and the authority charged with the.ir enforcement. That much will be Instated upon. Man-made laws we may repeal if puch a course appeals to the judgment of the people who, ultimately, ar the lawmakers. There csn be no compromising with law. Any form cf compromise with law is nullification. We think there is Dothing more firmly established than that in the minds of the vast majority of Americans today. The signs pointing that way are ubicjiif '.ous.
