THE SUGAR CONTROVERSY.
Mr. Henry C. Mott is the buyer of raw
sugar for the American Sugar Refinery
Co. Some time ago he was appointed
buyer of raw sugar for the international
committee which has charge of that part
of the food administrator’s duties which
relate to government control of sugar.
We do not know why the other refining
companies of the United States acquiesc
ed in giving this position to an agent of
(iieir strongest competitor, but they all
agreed to the arrangement. Mr. Mott
was to purchase and control all the raw
sugar obtainable at a certain fixed price
and parcel it out to the various refineries.
Reports were from time to time issued
• .at quantities of sugar were being pur
:nased and promises were often repeated
that economy and patience would soon be
rewarded by a reasonable supply of sugar.
During the last two months it has been
■definitely settled that promises will not
sweeten coffee and people began to ask:
Why? When? Is there any inefficiency in
this branch of our food administration?
and Congress, possibly itself in an un
sweetened state of mind, started an in
vestigation to ascertain the cause of the
sugar shortage and to fix the blame there
for, if any exists. Mr. Chas. A. Spreck
els, President of the Federal Sugar Re
finery Co., has been before the Senate
investigating committee for three days
and has made some startling charges con
cerning the pur ihases and contracts, and
also the manner in which the allotments
of raw sugar have been made. These
"barges if true, place Mr. Mott, Mr.
Hoover and perhaps somebody higher up
w a bad light and subject to suspicion.
Mr. H. Curtis Lindley, attorney for Mr.
Hoover, asked the privilege of ofTering
testimony in defense and said: "if we
cannot explain the Cuban contracts we
re placed on a pillory' while we are try
ing to solve a very difficult situation.”
Mr Lindlev’s annarcntlv rpaeAnaKlo vw
quest was refused by the Senate commit
tee after consultation with Councillor
i‘ celps of the State department. A few
hours reflection convinced the Senate
ommittee that this ruling was a serious
mistake and it was decided to hear Mr.
Hoover. 1 his was a wise decision. The
people are not in the mood to tolerate
'.rifling, evasion or subterfuge. Their
suspicions have been aroused. This
a'id all other investigations must be
thorough and without fear or favor.
"e beiieve that the sugar situation
has been well managed, but if, un
fortunately, it is proven that there has
tieen incompetency and inefficiency the
• ureau of food administration must be
reorganized from bottom to top. Mr.
Spreckels, or Mr. Mott and Mr. Hoover,
dust be put in the discard. There must
be no gum shoe methods either in the
Senate committee, in the State depart
ment or anywhere else.
PACKERS ON THE RACK.
The meat packers of Chicago are on
the grill before the federal trade com
mission. This has no direct connection
with the conduct of the war. The pack
ers have been autocratic public leeches
for many years. While packing houses
properly conducted in the interests of all
concerned, are necessary, it is neither
necessary nor right that the packers
should be allowed to become public rob
bers. The investigation as Tar as it has
’-- “-> « v»iuv uiwc IO 11CCU ui a
reformation which will bring forth fruits
meet for repentance. The wrath of an
outraged people is rising against the
packers. If there is no law to protec*
the people from these profiteers such a
law must be enacted. The poor, the
laboring class and those who recive a
small, fixed salary make up a large per
centage of our population. These people
have no protection except beneficient
and equable laws. No combination of
wealthy men should be allowed to plun
der them.
CONGRESS MUST ACT.
Congress seems to intend to have a
carnival of investigations. The censor
ship and secrecy of nearly all the depart
ments concerning their doings is doubt
less the reason for this. Secrecy is apt
to arouse curiosity and curiosity unsatis
fied opens the door to suspicion. An]
halting in investigation now will, in thi
minds of the public, confirm suspicion
It is fortunate that the demand of Con
gressmen for the facts, is not of a parti
san complexion, but comes from Demo
crats and Republicans in equal measure
We believe the people of all parties warn
-the truth regardless of political conge
[ quences, and that they will insist on
having it.
WHAT NEXT?
It is said that 9.000,000 pounds of raw
sugar has recently been received in Bos
ton. If distributed pro rata that will fur
nish about a pound and a half to each in
habitant of New England. Not long ago
j Mr. Hoover recommended the use of cran
berries for food. All right Mr. Hoover,
we will buy two quarts of cranberries iaf
: ter we get our sugar) and will do our bit
and have a real satisfying feast of cran
berry sauce. Pass along some more prac
| tical advice.
OUR BLUEPRINT SHIPS.
After months of bickering, hesitancy
and change of plans, it is announced that
the building of standardized steel cargo
ships by the government has actually be
gun. These ships are to be each of 5,000
tons and 150 of them are to be built. One
1 of this type of ships has been built and
launched. The keels of two similarjves
sels are to be laid this month. We shall
; rejoice if the time ever comes when the
; shipping board can fairly boast of what it
has done instead of what it is going to do.
_
i Whatever may be the result of the
lighting in Italy, it is plain that the Ger
; man and Austrian losses there are wear
ing down their aggressive force. These
losses will have their full effect when the
final tests of strength come on the lines
in France and Belgium.
WarSavings Certificats are being taken
rapidly. They appeal to the common
sense of the people. They are in fact
little government bonds which enabl*
almost everybody to help a little.

AN OLD TIME ITEM.
! -
We take the following from The Re
publican Journal of October 14, 1829:
A full bloodied Jonathan, residing in a
certain town in New England, once took
! it into his head to “go a courtin’’: he ac
cordingly saddled the old mare, and start
ed off to pay his devoirs to one of the
buxom lasses of the neighborhood. After
“staying” with his “gal” until daylight
appeared he made preparations to depart.
Just as he was seating himself on the
saddle, his fair one who stood in the door,
(and who by the way was marvelously
fond of having “sparks”) wishing him to !
come again, stammered out, “I shall be j
at home next Sunday night, Zeb. ” Zeb
edee taking out his tobacco box, bit off a
quid and answered, “So shall Ibygaully.” j

and, this year, particularly to emphasize
the need of better farming methods in
this time of war emergency.
The course will include class room and
laboratory work in the most important
branches of general agriculture, horti
culture, live stock husbandry and poultry
management. The instructions will be
given by the regular teaching staff of the
j College of Agriculture.
The short course students will have ac
! ssso to the full laboratory equipment, .
will use the same class rooms as the two
and four year students, will work in the !
green house, the dairy building, the incu
bator house, the stock judging pavillion
1 and will have excellent opportunity to
familiarize themselves with the breeds
and types of farm animals from the Uni
| versity herds and flocks.
Each week several special lectures will
be given dealing with important agricult
i ural problems of the present time.
No tuition or fees of any kind will be
charged. Any person fifteen years of
age or over will be admitted to the short
course without examination.
For Bulletin describing the short course

HANDY MEDICINE
TO HAVE HANDY:
has been well and truly said of The
True “L. F.” ATWOOD’S Medicine:
It is not a cure-all. It will not help a
sore corn nor stop the toothache, but
it goes directly to the seat of digestive
troubles, sick headache, biliousness,
constipation, worms, etc., and relieves. \
The True “L. F.” ATWOOD;S !
Medicine is of such exceptional merit, 1
so good, so effective, that always, for
every good reason imaginable, you
should insist on it as a family medi
cine for troubles outlined. Your drug
gist or general storekeeper sells and
recommends this large bottle, small
dose, popular-priced remedy. 50 cents.

CATARRH VANISHES.
Here is One Treatment That All Sufferers
Can Kely Upon.
If you want to driye catarrh and all its
disgusting symptoms from your system
in the shortest possible time, go to your
druggist and ask for a Hyomei outfit to
day.
Breathe Hyome and it will rid you of
catarrh; it gives such quick relief that all
who use it for the first time are astonish
ed.
Hyomei is a pure, pleasant antiseptic,
which is breathed into the lungs over the
inflamed membrane; it kills the catarrh
germs, soothes the sore spots, and heals
all inflammation.
Don’t suffer another day with catarrh;
the disease is dangerous and often ends
in consumption. Start the Hyomei treat
ment today. No stomach dosing, no
sprays or douches; just breathe it—that’s
all. Ask A. A. Howes & Co.

HELP THE RED CROSS.
Ye who sleep peacefully
In quiet homes,
Whert no disaster broods,
No terror comes,
Against the hour of doom,
The day of loss,
Now in this Christmas tide,
Help the Red Cross!
Ye who tread joyously
Through flowery ways,
Laughter and song to fill
The long bright days,
For those on beds of pain
Who moan and toss,
Now in this Christmas tide,
Help the Red Cross!
Beggar and priest and king,
For all alike,
In the appointed hour
God’s clock doth strike.
Round the world, o’er the sea,
Join hands across!
Now, when Christ comes to ye,
Help the Red Cross!
