The food control hi!l is having a hard time getting through cnngrc-'s. yet it m:iy well be admitted tnai there is no more important stop toward the final winning of the war than (or the government ti take a direct hand in the management of, two' supplies, anil the control of suepvi'4 and price of all the necessities of life. Other nation have had to adopt these steps, but they did tiie necessary work late: Uncle Sain should learn by the cMrience t England, France and Germany. Senator Reed aand other rcpres' tatives in the House and Senate, who look after the special interest rather than after the interests of the whole people, ay that (fovernment control will interfere with the i-iirht;-of the businetuj intercats and oi private individuals. When such a war I on as the one In which thi country in cniraifi'd theiT i no buMnces except to win the war; the government, aa the representative of all the people, mu.it take every step possible to brinit Miecesa. If the taking of property, if the regulation of prices, shall be necessary, it would be a very weak Kovcnrr.ent that would fail to take these ateps. The government arose to the need and iwiued the call for the enrollment of ten millions of younjr men; It o!d its bond in the amount of hilliona. and must ed more; why miouLI men with food products stored awit be permitted to make immenM piufitfrom the peupic already borne down by the demand of the warthe people who pernaps have already given their Kona? tlut, It is said that it is (civinif autocratic jK'wer to one man to control the distribution and prices of fool anil coal, and other necessities, Jn a republic there is no autocracy except for thi! time, at the wish of the people, thf; s-ovemment, A man may be given power, but it can be taken away from him in an instant by the people who issued him hi commission of power. It will be necessary to (five some men power to brinr about tlliciency in government ulluirs now. ii U no t:m for all tiie people to try to do Mime thi'ips; it U time for the ieoole to issue pr,wcr to some iut-n to move quickly if this ration in to have vi effective part in the wur.

strength of thii body for the demar.df of the hour. While this is a nation established for the benefit of the individual, yet the nation is bigger than any one man; in an emergency, the so-called right of the individual must give way before the needs of all the people. It is no time to question the patri otism of men in power. It is verytrue that the men at the head of af fairs in state and nation are moved by just as patriotic impulses and just as much devotion to country as the men who criticise and bemean them It is not a time for criticism, it is a time for action. The men who are finding the most fault in congress are the very men in whom the people back at home have the least confidence. INDIANA'S SHAME. Indiana should hang her head hame at the revelations of the trials low in progress at Indianapolis, howng the terrible climes committed in he mime of pontic at the capita! ity. Hot. the pgople are not expecting nueh from Indianapolis in the line of mi-tie or good government, so far ft . It would not be surprising at a!! I'ni'le Sam should deride to relive, the anny prist from (ndian'!is, as well as the one from St iiii. as law enforcement and good ivrnment are very short in both II seems strange that with so many im.somis of able and strong men in li tnapohs. men who pour out their ;:i:v 1'pr all good purposes, as tin V. M. C. A. and the lied Cross, lh.it they supinely submit to such a ivemnient as that now in vogue eio. Is there io teiltn at all in (iiiertrl. i .uri'e.ise of shame? Shall tlie lnliana people have to go on for all to come undi r the stigma of such. Indianapolis, every time the court ft Ihe iid and give a glance into the periling caldron of vice and crime? I NOI.K S A M SHU I'M) III BUY. The battles m the air are becomig the most terrible and the most in I'vting of all the war incidents. It will that s ninny as seventy or ifiity air idiips will he engaged in a single battle, 'the Germans no r.ii:ng out their aeroplanes in solid rmation: of course, the allies meet en in like numbers. America should make all spend in providing aeroplanes for use in Kuoee.

The aeroplane is valuable for locatug the submarines, too, and it would cem that it is highly important to train tiie a.-.cend incy in the air at the at!ie--t possible moment. HOPH FOR RISSIA. Ilussia is coming back strong llrussiioiT and Krcn.-4.y are doing U' h to get the army back into fight hit form, and if Ku.-.-ia will but do her part now well and iuiek!y, the nd of tiie war will soon lie in sight.

WORK TO HO I.ATKR. Colonel Roosevelt has written for one of the July magazines his ideas as to whal pire should bring to the nations of the world. He outlines what territory reh nation should have, and gives pretty good reasons. Such good reasons that it might be well to put the redoubtable colonel on the jieace commission when it shall be formed within the next few montlis or years. MAMMOTH STRAWBERRY.

State Food and Drug Commissioner. A pound of fish per capita is about all the sea food we have eaten annually. To most of us fish is a rare food to lie eaten on occasion, and yet wc would be fed more cheaply and quite as vyill if like the people of other countries we ate fifty pounds of fish a year. Fish eating cuts down beef eating. When the pastures of the sea supplement to a far greater extent than now the grassy plains on which wc feed our beef animals, all meats will be more plentiful than Our problem today is not only to feed our own people but to gather targe stocks for shipments abroad. The fisheries of many of the Kurojftean countries have been practically destroyed. We cannot import fish as formrly. On the contrary we must prepare to export it Our fisheries have been growing slowly, but under the stimulus of the ward's demands they will increase rapidly. Almady an order for fourteen million pounds of fro Ken fish for the armies of Europe have lieen placed in this countryIf the food scarcity brings us to a better knowledge of the value sf fish wc shall be th gainers.
