CANDIDATE WHEWS AND HIS LEGALISMS. Worried, indeed, are those local republicans who would make a fetish of Candidate IV hews' legalisms, to the end of having hita asnirnc the know-it-all of statutory construction, because The News-Times has branded him a pettifogger ami declines to give it up. We ac

cordingly repeat it for their special benefit that in the

impoverished white Hour, even if it doesn't look so attractive. And naturally, whole wheat Hour is easier to make and .so costs less in the millin-'. Ilakcrs generally charge the j-ame price for either kind of broad. Mven s. the consumer wins by eating whole whiat hreid. Mut there is no reason why the whole wheat loaf should cost so much: and doubtless It wouldn't, if then: was suilieient demand for it. The same reasoning holds true for the whole wheat Hour, Vor housewives who halc their own bread.

SIR C. O. P. ORACLE AND JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS' ADDRESS. W have wailed, deb b ratify waited, to i.ee what kind of tri.itmeiit Yn. John Sharp Williams would receive from our republican contemporary, incident to his visit and address in .-outh F.end. before making any eomrn nt upon it. All that we did about it yesterday, vas to present the news the cold facts. We wanted !o have it to our conti mporary to tell its own stry of iiis presence, and make its comment upon him and aim alone. The fxpevted has happem-d. Although .-orne l.ööo people attended the Williams m eting, our eontemporary's alleged noon edition had not discovered '.its presence, as et, sae in a brief ditorial. and finally when the presence of the Mississippian was discoveril 1 its reportorial st.-i.fi" in time of the "last" edition, it wa- reduced to a half column, and hidden much :..s possible from the public view. Such is republican journalism. Suppress what you don't want the oublie to know. You can't trust the ofoplo with the truth.. J Especially you cannot trust it, .!, in this ir.staiK e. uitn an exposition of falsehood -exo'tly what .en. Williams' addnss amounted to. When Candivlate Whews was lore. The News-Times .mbhihed his sptech practically in full, using his own words, and the story of the met ting and the crowd was told without color or la.ts. Such things are statements f fact, of what happened, or what somebody had to .say, and it outrht to be the mission of a newspaper to ,:iv.. thi to the public rtgardUss of party affiliations. :rr.umir:? tb.at the peopl" want the trutli. We will conctilt that there was a vast difference in The Xews-Tiuo s. and in its i oiitemporary's motives. We wanted to let the public know what the republican nominee had to say. Nothing could make him more ridiculous, ur contemporary suppressed the speech Sen. Williams much as it dared, knowing full well that to print it en fi asor.ahly in full, and without color. v.oulJ add only to the ridiculousness which Mr. Whews had made for him-olt" and the gcntlemin who

parts already. Then the editorial omment.

law, his legal acumen shows scarcely fit for a police court shyster. Anyhow, it belongs in the same cla.3 with the advice recently given the South Dend common council in committee of the whole, when that body was visited by the directors of the Centennial Celebration association, and asked for a guarantee appropriation in, support of that enterprise. Mr. Whews is intinitely worse, because his condescension is o much greater, due to the importance of the office to which he aspires and we sort of expect a certain amount of peanut politics among the legalisms of municipal government. the local case merely being used to idustrat We must also consider the high office from which tho republican nominee has descended, as an aggravation; but let us return to the local case to illustrate the point. Our city attorney seemingly assured in advance of the kind of advice the common council wanted, read at length from a state statute that they could appropriate money for only municipal conventions, or t send delegates to municipal conventions, to discuss civic questions, etc. Tho centennial, he said, would have to put on some sort of municipal convention program including a speech by the mayor, and resj.onses approving his "prreat work' we suppose. in order to get within that law. lie didn't continue to read about the appropriation that miedu bo made for band concerts nnd entertainments, within the porview of which, certainly, the centennial comes ax truly a.s did the municipal Christmas tree, or the Hum Village Fourth cf July celebration, to which appropriations were made U'cause there was a little music went with them. Nay. nay. The city attorney seemed to know in advance the kind of law the administration wanted the common council to hear, an-l even neglected to call attmtion to the other, at least for the time being, after his attention was called to it. It remained for the newspapers to force that issue after the meeting had adjourned. Now even the appropriation of money to a concert in connection with the centennial has been turned down, to the credit of Mayor Keller, the city attorney, and the "citizen" members of the council, however, this under the leadership of the democrats notably Councilman Reifert, in that august body. The democrats are excusable only for tho reason that in their leadership, they exhibited the smallness of their size, not by taking refuge lehind a particular presentation of the law to suit their taste, but admitting that they wer ji gainst this because they hadn't gotten something ds', while the "citizen" eouncilmen anxiously cooperated, perfectly willing that the democrats should make themselves the "goats." It is th" same status of affairs: the same sort of politico-legal opinion that made an appropriation of .$-,000 good for the equipment of Oliver Held which the administration wanted, but denied its validity when some sort of equipment wa-s similarly desired by the residents of the tilth and seventh wards, which the administration did not want. Indeed, we are inclined to believe the administration was right in not favoring the fifth and seventh ward demands, but taking cover behind a lepal opinion rendered to suit its taste, is cowardice and chicanery that the public has nn absolute rurht to have before it.

Wilson A verted Loss of Hundred Million lo Nations Farmers

THE MELTING POT

Conducted by Stuart H. Carroll

News-Tines Sj.-i;ii . ervliv: Ni:W YOllK. Sept. Z'J. "One hundred million dollars direct loss and paralysis of the market is what the farmers ad fruit growers of the United t-tates would havo suffered had net Pres't Wilson averted the railroad strike," i$ the statement made today by Frank G. Odell. agricultural economist and formerly agricultural statistician for the state of Nebraska. Mr. Odcll said: "The certified returns made by the 2 25 railroads of tho United States to th interstate commerce commission show that for the month of April, 191, their combined net earnings were seventy-eight million dollars more than for April, 191". Th railroads' pita of poverty is being used by the republicans to scare the farmer into believing that he would have to pay the cost of increased freight rates if the eight hour diy should compel the roads to pa; more in waes. The republicansare not calling attention to the fact that farmers would have lost more by one week of strike conditions than their aliened increase of expense would have fost the railroads in live years. Cites an Instanit. "Take this single ir stance," continued Mr. Odell. The Seattle Time prints this report of the fruit crop of the famous Yakima valley in Washington: "NORTH YAKIMA, Sept. IS. t It is now practically certain that the 1116 fruit crop of th Yakiina valley will be 10,09'" carloads, I', 000 carloads more than ever before. The total may even run over that figure. High prices have encouraged th growers to pick and ship all of their fruit and as it was exceptionally clean this year very little has gone or will go to waste. 4'A return of $6, 000, 000 for those 10,000 carloads of fruit seems now assured a.1: few doubt apples wdll average the rr cents per box necessary' to make this total." "A general railroad strike would have prevented the. moving of this crop, with a resultant loss of at least fifty per cent, or a total loss of three million dollars to the Yakima lruit growers. This Mr. OJell continued, "is indicative of a similar and perhaps larger loss jn the famous fruit growing districts of Wenatchee and the Okanogan, in Washington; Hood river, lloguo river and Medford. in Oregon: the Hitter ltoot valley, in Montana; the Lewiston-Ciarkson district in southeastern Wxishlngton and Idaho; the big melon crop of Colorado and its equally important applo and peach crop, and the immense fruit crop of California. "In 1915 the three principal fruit crops of Missouri, apples, peaches and pears, had a farm value of over $15,000,000; the same crops in Kansas were worth nearly $!. 000,000; in Iowa, .?6,S00.(oin, ami in Xcbraska nearly M. 000.000. This does not take into -account early small fruits, grapes or melons. A 27, per cent loss on these values would have

been small in the case strike. "The certain losses

havo fallen on the growers in these districts alone would hav totalled many millions. The disorganization of markets which would have followed a strike would have been felt disastrously in every item of this year's farm production. "I wish", said Mr. Odell. "that the farmers of the country could realize It is Wood row Wilson who saved them from this incalculable loss.

and that Charles 1Z. Hughes, who as governor of New York vetoed practically all appropriations that wer vitally needed for rural interests, i condemning Pres't Wilson for preventing a nation-wide industrial panic and ruin of the farmer's market."

As the summer season sets in those venerable subjects the ea serpent anJ the value of a universal la ng.ua go somehow or other always manage to ci into print. This year, however, both have been badly jolted; the sea serpent by tho shark scare, a rtari; reality, not a condition of mind, and the "universal language issue by th? fact that at the recent conference of the allies in Paris the French, Hussa in, and Knglish delegates used English as their means of communication and found the result quite t) their liking and their profit. Of course, talking to the Convinced in this issue of Volapuk. long dead, and Fsperanto. still presenting the semblance tu a galvanized life, or of immortal Ho, the language invented in Marietta.

Nn; on the contrary. the reaction i.i favor of the language that t lis the history in word ami phra of the culture of the rate is so reat that all oNtr liur.-ie the toniervolieu of

iho minor dialects is under way, J

while the passion for the great national languages was never more manifest, and this in face of the supposed necessities of intercommunication in irench. on held, and sea, and in cabinets that ought to give Fsperanto a boom and even get Ito a hearing. Hut such is not the course of events. Kverywhere it is recognized that intelligent and intellectual human beings Jemand f language something more than the signs that the lei'ectie may make to each tdher to convey their primary needs. They want to use the tonuue that has a past and was not made overnight in the garret of a theoretician. They, in line, want beauty with utility, and that no universal business language can offer. Consequently, stimulated by the war, they are planning all over Europe to euuip themselves in the languages of their r.eighlors. The English are planning" to know French and Russian, ari l, of course, Orman, and the P.usiar. and French art; taking up Frglish. And in Oermany the exhortation everywhere is that the modern languages, including French. Spani-h, and English, mu-t be studied mor- than ever and "acquired." Hut. above this linguistic activity, the- great fact looms up that thü English language. long the language of 1 usiness for the world, is coming into its own a.s the language of diplomacy nd universal com

munication. And with near.y oneJ

hundred milions in this hemisphere speaking their own version of this superb universal mother tongue, it does not behoove us to be blind to the si-n : the times. Anil a 3 for Ho.

thi: tuil ui:.sox? (Mis- oula, Mont.. Sentinel. ) , Th yentlnel has published the eddori.il opinion f the S.ilt Like Tribune as to the ii.--mi.-sal of (Jen. Erich n i-'alkenhayn as chief of the t: rm.in general staff. The Tribun- .. 1 i that I'alkenhayn was dhmis.-cd beca-.-e the Oerman people .vii e l:..-ati.-:":t d. that he. so to ifCtk. was made a "goat." .Since

then, however, another light has been' thrown upon the fall of Falkenhayn. Itcports said to have been received from tlermany in Perne intimate that hi 5 dismissal was due to the kaiser's displeasure lit the military expert's suggestion of a completeehange in Merman war policy. We quote from the dispatch: "Predicting the complete downfall of Bulgaria as tho result of converging attacks from the north and south and in the end a consequent interruption of communications with Turkey, Oen. von Falkenhayn urged that the whole Halkan campaign he abandoned, that the eastern line be shortened and that the occupied territory in France be evacuated. "The general expressed the opinion that the transformation of German stratt gy into a purely defensive campaign on a shorter front would paralyze the entente allies and make it impossible for them to crush Austro-Cerman resistance unless they fought with unlimited recoil rces and then for years. Persistence in the present plan ef campaign, he said, would lead to disaster. "Field MaiMial von Hindenburs denounced this advice as childish, cowardly and unworthy of the Germans. Emperor William took von Hindenburg's view." This, as th; saying goes, is important if true. Falkenhayn. a.s head of the c,erm;ji military organization, with supervision of all campaigns, should be able to see. more clearly than any other man, the true situation, should be able to estimate more closely than any other person the ability of Germany to continue the war in a.iy offensive way. If Falkenhayn thought the time had come for a defensive campaign, for Fabian warfare, then. probably, that time has come, or is co.-ning soon. Falkenhiyn is not a coward; actually, he h: done more for Germany than Im von Hindenburg. who is row chief of rtaiT. The fall of Falkenhayn, somehow, seems pregnant with the fati of Germar.y.
