Democratic pigmies of compromise, too lull In the he ad to tee through It, and who finally fell for the disguised antl-Ieague bait, and swallowed it. have by tho consumption that has overtaken them, merely degenerated Into the Fame category. It is no excuse for these demoorrts that they had tho leadership of "William .1. 75ryan in their course. They might as well have followed tho back-sliding leadership of "William Howard Taft or Herbert Hoover, or better rtlll; the leadership of Eamon do Valera or Wilhelm llohenr.ollern. Possibly by their action they may pet a little evner split of the IrlshArnericn and flerman-A mrrican votes, but we thought a "10 0 percent Americanism" was to have something of a standing In the eorning presidential canvass. It amounts to this, and nothing more nor loss, regardless of the leadership that the seceding democrats may claim. They walked right into a trap' that the opposition rot for them and the trap has now been hung up, dangling from a limb of waterelm tree, with tho democratic party dandling from tho trap. Taking th record a It stands, 21 democrats voted for tho treaty with the meaningless amendments to the IyDdge reservations, to 2 3 who voted aralnst it- Add four of that 2 3 to the 12 republicans, termed "irreconcilables" whith they also were.. and It leaves lü democrats standing by the president. In other word, the president Is just po far ahead of h3 party, that even V. J. Ilryari can no longer prasp him. TVe repeat what we have said in thL column before, that It is no wonder that the president has found it necessary to draw on the ex.bull moosers, attached to h.ls course, to make sure of loyalty in hi. latest choice of a secretary of state, and mark our word, that thi surrender of the iemocrats to the republicans, unless it is boldly repudiated at San Francisco, mean- thero are approximately l.r.00,000 ex-bull nn'oseis who became Wilson progressive democrats in 1 M followers oi "Wilson. who will fjuit the deniocr.ttic arty ju-f ms abruptly In li'i;0 as they joined it in If 10. when Iloosev It f.:r rend1 red.

HIGH SOCKS AND HIGH HATS. Me ST of the great indu: trial concerns are giving strict attention to preventing waste due to carelessness on the part of employes. This elimination of wasto from production Is one of the most potent factors for the reduction of pric s and as such is of peneral int'-rest. In one factory where silk hose are manufactured invf stipation preyed that frequently ;,s high as r0 I creent of the output had to be put on the market as "seconds" owing to careless work. What this

must do to wages if the employer is to carry the j loss, or to the price of perfect goods if the public 1

carries it, is easily seen. (Jotting tho cooperation of the workman is the problem. To be successful these industrial campaigns must show the workman that his wastefulness reacts directly upon himself, that everything which adds to the cost of product on add:- to the cost of living. The wlfo of the working man struggles every day to eliminate waste in her household. What she accomplishes In their home her husband may throw away at the shop. -Take the hose mentioned above as an instance. The sock-maker by his carelessness adds to the cost of socks. Thi. m-'ikes it more expensive for the hatmaker to clothe his feet. To meet this added expense the" hatter raises the price of hats, and so the sock-maker rays for his extravagance on the next hat he buys. Once a workman understands the opera Ihm of this Jaw. he will not be so careless. "Waste -elimination will be seen as self-preservation.

of 'veneer' all our boasted 'modernism really Is! For Instance, here's a. toy manutacturer, who says, that in spite of all tho mechanical marvels and wonderful nw inventions in toys, lie has more calls for ragdolls, than for anything else! No matter what else a child may have, It wants a doll too! "And it's the same way with the

I rest of usl" j "Nonsense!" protested tho Pach- ! elor. "I haven't yearned for a a

'doll for years! "No." sighed the Widow a little sadly, "but you'll want one and start looking for one, the moment you decide to marry! And you'll probably want to keep her in a doll's house, like a pretty, precious little toy, and to dress her up In spangles and frills.

GERMAN TRADE REVIVING.

ItT'LY peace hath its victories no less renowned

than those of war. A representative of Krupps

of Fssen, the great German sicel concern and manufacturer of war materials, is now in the United States eam-assing the situation with a view to establishing a sales agency In this country. Not tr sell cannon and other engines of war. Tt Is a varied pack this peddler of German goods displays. Krupps are branching out; the company Is going ahead with the construction of car and aviation motors, making large numbers of motor trucks and turning out small machinery of almost every sort. They are already making cash registers and preparing to put typewriters em the market. Under an agreement with the Prussian railroad ministry, Krupps are building locomotives, cars and other railroad equipment. They have also begun the manufacture of farm machinery and implements. Taper mill machinery is also being made by them, and Fssen newspapers stated a short time ago that the Krupp directorate had decided to enter upon Die optical and scientific instrument business on a great scale. So. if you have orders for almost anything, prepare to place them now. Krupps drummer will call upon you, pleased to show samples. If a German lirm. with the hateful reputation of the Krupps, has so soon after the war penetrated to America, Is It possible to believe that every other country in the world has not before this been visited? German trade is not to languish, no matter what the peace terms. What they lose by the treaty Germans may shortly take from their foes by superior business acumen.

HOLD ON TO THOSE BONDS. There has been a good deal of disappointment because Liberty bonds have stayed ko long below par. While most Americans would have purchased those bonds from patriotism alone, there was at the same time the promise of a good investment. With the bonds still quoted far below face value, there is a feeling of disgust and disappointment which leads many holders of liberty bonds to sell them. Slling war securities now for anything short of an emergency need for cash is a very foolish thing to do. Fven if they should never rise above par which they undoubtedly will do, and perhaps soonr than most persons believe they are redeemable at i ar at their maturity. Dollar for dollar, they will almost certainly be worth more In purchasing power th-ri than now. There is no Question of Uncle Pant's redit. The bonds remain of unexcelled security. Tb.e interest rate, though not high. Is unusually goexl beeauso it is so sure. Injudicious and hasty Kile of those bonds now only helps to drive them still lower for the present. The smaller holder tempted to get rid of his bonds now. should take heed of the fact that power!" :l financial interests are snapping them up eagerly heraus- they recognize them as safe and wholly desirable. Nothing will help to send the bonds mor? quieklv on their upward climb than the simple act of holding on to them now.
