Thi Timcs has increased its mailing equipment and 1 striving earnestly to reach It patrons on time. He prompt in advising us when you 1" not get your paper and wo will act promptly. yorra own home A lot ol young folk who have been "wanting to ouy their own homes will find this premt season an excellent time to do it. Prices are down pretty well, and It Is possible to pick up a bit of prosperity on more reasonable terms of payment than It has been ior several years. A couple starting out in life has a his advantage a moving into a place that is Home, right at the atart. But not nearly all can do that. It ia up to the huaLand, though, to keep the idea constantly befure him. He owes it to the girl who is now his wife. It is a mistake to buy too big a place. That means a lot of extra work. And if the rooms are 'oo few and too umall it is hard to get along without ouarrelling more than is good for folks. So the young touple must exercise judgment and get some competent advice. Choose the neighborhood carefully, don't aka on too big a financial burden, look before you leap, nad buy your own home. You'll be happier INTERIM A WASTE OF TIME " ' The proposal to advance the date of the 'inauguration nearer to the time of the election of the president and vice-president of the United States Is cue ;hat should not be permitted to paps without serious consideration by congress. It will b necessary to secure the adoption of an amendment tha con

stitution to bring about the change. Congress has been in session sinc Ihd first onlay of December, but it has done nothing ia the way of legislation or any other action to kelp Bolve the problems of the readjustment period, an$ the majority is waiting until a president in sympathy jrita its political Ideas has been inaugurated. The interval of four months whlctt JapSfc'? between the election and the inauguration of ft, president is practically wasted by congress when R change of administration is pending. Even If congress should piss measures favored by the Republican party, it is almost certain that they would be vetoed, by lh.Q democratic president. Two proposals for amending the constitution regarding tha Inauguration are pending in congress. On of them fixes the first Monday of December for the meeting of the new congress and the second Monday for the inauguration of the president. The other Axes the second Monday of January for the meeting cf congress and the third Monday for the Inauguration. The first proposal would probably be favored by a majority of the people. If there is any advantage In making the change, it might as well be made within SO days of the holding of the election, which would tfive plenty of time for verification of the vote of the senate, which would meet one week ahead of the inauguration. The waste of time and money by a congress that is not actually functioning because of an antagonistic! dmlnistration, seems warrant enough for the pacing of a resolution that would place the matter of changng the inaugural date before the state legislatures. It ooks like a bit of governmental economy that m ly well t.e approved by all the states'. . ,J' V h ': SOTH SECTIONS CONVINCED f" A li-mber of free trade publications are putting cue propaganda to the effect that the irfii?ri.il east 'a attempting to compel the agricultural wet to cooperate for a high tariff by holding up tarifi." r ' V dules until an agreement is reached between the- tvr j.-roups of interests which is mutually satisfactory. Nothing could be further from the truth. Both ir:-iU- have oeea convinced by the workings of the Vii-; -l aderwood law that free trade Is a curse to the count; y, 'and They have within the past few years received considerable reinforcement from the South, which is becoming fctronger for protection with every day's operation cf The present law. Experience is the best, if the bitter-

est teacher, and the vast majority of our agricultural population are convinced as never before that their best market is the domestic market, which can only be injured to them by protective duties on agricultural products and on manufactured goods. Closed mills mean reduced domestic purchasing power. Open ports mean Incread competition- for farmers and other food producers. Equitable protection means prosperity for both and the ansmrance of national self-sufficiency. The Wilson-Underwood law and the war that taught a lesFon which will net be soon forgotten. If the reformem desire an outlet for their energies let them engage in progaganda ubroad to induce foreign competitors to raise the wages and standards of their workingmen. The labor and Industry cf the United States should not be subjected to vicarious atonement because of the hardships visited on foreign laborers by foreign producers.

AIRPLANES TO PLAY IMPORTANT PART IN NAVY MANEUVERS

FASTEST! While we go on in our humdrum ways a celestial runaway is dashing through the heavens at the fastest speed ever attained by any object in the universe. This bad boy among the stars goes by the drab name cf Nebula Dreyer No. 5 8 4, and his address is the Constellation of Cotus. The Nebula is not visible to the eye. It flashes across the lower skies in the early evening and its erratic course has been discovered by Dr. V. M. Skipper of the Lowell Observatory, Flagstaff, Ariz. As our sun, dragging the earth and other planets with It, loafs along at approximately 1? miles a second, Nebula Dreyer, No. 534 is showing its heels to the rest of creation at the rate of 1,242 miles. Its course is directly away from the earth. No one knows where this Nebula is going, what it will hit, or whether, in all eternity, it will vh;it us apain. It has .lust one claim on the attention of the earth-dwellers. It is the superlative in speed. And in these days, to reach the pinnacle, it has to go some.

BOERS MAY SECEDE The poor old British lion is hating such a hard time these days with his various children that it is scarcely decent to poke fun et him. The Irish have been thwacking him with their shillalahs and the people of India have been pulling his tall. . In Canada the unemployed are growling and now little South Africa, which most folks thought had agreed to behave, announces with a smile that It ia about to vote on secession from the empire. A general election is to be held during February throughout the union, and it may mean the undoing cf all the British attempted when they subdued the Boers some twenty years ago. With General Botha and Smuts big figures on the

British side in the World War, South African troops i doing their manful duty on the front, and Cecil Rhodes dream of the Cape to Cairo railroad about to be ac- ! cornpllshed, South Africa seemed on the surface to be ; the least likely of British possessions to start anything, j But as in Canada and India there is a strong Na- j tionallst party which has natural traditions of its own. And these traditions can scarcely be said to j flourish any better under British dominion than under a strictly native government. True, the empire isn't i ts bossy as it once was; but there is something which the South Africanders know about which they haven't !

got. They see it in the United States and elsewhere. It Is independence. Folks are so made that once they've learned of independence they are never satisfid until they have a full measure for themselves.

In the comir.ir maneuvers of the Atlantic and Pacific fleets of the U. S. navy at Panama reaplaiies and airplanes will play a prominent part. They will o through
