OUR SECTION WILL CONTROL THE SUGAR MARKET
. Hamburg and London controlled the sugar market for
many years, until the United States and Cuba and our insular
possessions became large factors in the field of production
.And then New York took the control. But for the moment
the control is now in the region west of thes- Mississippi, where
75 per cent of the beet sugar is produced, though this region
. has only about 30 per cent of the population of the United
-States ..." J
And this tendency will grow. Most of the country west
of the Mississippi is now buying its sugar at 8-10 of a cent
a 'pound lower than the New York price. And another
important thing is observed.
The junta of propagandists for the Wall Street crowd
owning and controlling the Cuban sugar industry and sugar
" lands, and the cane sugar refineries along the Atlantic coast
were saying, a few, months ago that the "tariff, on sugar
iis lnvariaDiy auueu 10 me price
i ... .' Saying this in arguments for a lower .tariff ;rate for the
? junta on their raw sugar
l And lying and knowing they were lying all the time.
e Some of them have the effrontery to still make this claim,
though no intelligent person who will make a study of the
f situation can be made to believe their lies.
i One of the greatest economic experts in this country told
the Hardwick committee of Congress in 1911, testifying as
an authority on the sugar market, that an increase of the
domestic production would lead to a lowering of the price
paid by consumers -"L
And the present situation is a complete fulfillment of
'this forecast '!"' C
i And the more beet sugar the west produces, the more
1 this section will control the market
' 'And the foreign competitors will have to sell at prices
J as low as "those for the home supply, plus the freight
charges; ,;: : ' A ' i : " " '
' ' Will have to do this regardless of the amount of duty
"they pay '

our own people and ouriown interests, the United StaJ.es

country; right up. to the point of supplying 11 of our own
TAX EXEMPT SECURITIES
The policy of exempting any j securities froin taxation is
wrong, it amounts to favoritism, it results in a privileged
class those who have money and put it into non-tangible
property upon which they pay no taxes. . And this .throws
additional burden of taxation upon another class of people
who must pay on their property the taxes the firstf class
escapes. . ; J '
Tax exempt certificates take money which should be
invested in industries which employ labor and promote com
munity prosperity. Away with further issuance of them by
legislative action or by some other effective means.

FARMERS AND THE INHERITANCE TAX
With the exemption pf wealthy estates from the pay-
ment of the inheritance tax in two fit the states this feature
of taxation commands special attention just now. With sev
5 eral of the forty-eight units of government thus bidding
' against each other for the acquisition of wealth, the inheri
t, tance tax as a. form of taxation will. soon be a thing of the
4 past ' And with the wealthy stimulated by the hope of no
estate taxes rushing into these havens of tax evasion these
competitive states will soon be well populated. Taxes wil
i continue to increase, however, for' education, good roads and
other essentials of progress and the less fortunate from the
, t .financial standpoint, will have to pay them, -tr" -
I - Among those classes of taxpayers who do not pay inheri
tance taxes since they seldom accumulate sufficient wealth
are farmers, laborers and others owning small homes. rUpon
J these peopleit is evident, will fall most heavily the payment
of the equivalent of the inheritance taxes.
' Various methods have been suggested by which this tax
can be saved to the states. ' The most feasible probably is one
in whiJ h the federal , government would cooperate with the
I states andVith such a plan in viewofficers of the 'American
Federal Farm Bureau appeared before the House Ways and
M Means committee of Congreslast month and urged that the
federal government should help preserve this form of tax to
w the states by levying a federal inheritance tax, from which
could be deducted the amount to which the state would be
entitled when making returns to the federal treasury,
Under this plan it would be urged, no' doubt.: that the
present credit of twenty-five per cent authorized.with respec
: to state taxes paid should be very materially increased.' -The
farmers back up their claim of paying more than their share
tX)f taxes.upon the basis of ability to pay with incontrovertable
-figures. The abandonment of inheritance taxes serves to
further increase this inequality
'TRUE TO THE COLORS"
"True to the Colors" was the
title of the sermon in the First
Methodist Episcopal church on
Sunday eYenrng by the pastor,
Rev. Fred C. Taylor, it was an
Armistice Sunday service and pa
triotic hymns were sung and the
church Service Flag, containing
133 stars with four silver stars
and four gold stars was hung in a
conspicuous place in the church as
a reminder of the interest and sac
rifice of the church in the World
War.
Armistie Day celebrates We end
ing of the World war and is the
happiest day in American history.
A war that from the angle of the
American soldier was high in
idealism, resplendent in heroism
and magnificent in sacrifice, but
viewed from another angle was
the most hellish in hate, barbaric
In slaughter and destructive of life
and property in the history of the
world. America was forced into
the war by Germany's submarine
operations. The sinking of the
Lusitanla in May 1915 in which
117 Americans :ost their lives
strained the diplomatic relations
between America and Germany.
On April 6, 1917, war was de
clared and within fifty days Gen
eral Pershing had fifty thousand
American soldiers in France. And
before eighteen months passed.
there - was two millions soldiers
overseas and another two million
in training at home. The magni
tude of the awful struggle is seen
in the fact that it is estimated
that sixty million men were un
der arms, seven million men suf
fered death, twenty million more;
suffered injury while the cost to
the allies reached one hundred
and twenty billion dollars.
But Armistice.Day brought the
hostiltiies to a close and nations
began to rebuild their waste places
and turn again to the arts of
peace. ' Today we are seeaing to
conserve the liberties won by the
war. During the war there was
much heard about aliens, hyphe
nated citizens-, slackers, copper
heads and traitors. But there was
also much recorded of the fdealism
and service and sacrifice of the
loyal soldiers. AH honor is due
the veterans of the World war for
what they did for the nation and
the world in winning the war.
Now we devote ourselves with
the same idealism and devotion to
he establishment of justice and
peace in the world. The words of
President Warren G. Harding,
spoken on the occasion of the
bringing home to America the
bodies of the soldier dead need to
ever impress us, whetf'he' said:
It must not be asajnJi. must
not be again. God grant that it
will not be, and let a practical peo
ple join in cooperation with God
to the end that it shall not be."
And the words of President Calvin
Coolidge addressed to the Nation
al 'Convention of , the American
Legion, at Omaha a month ago
should help us all to apply our
selves to the securing of world
peace. "America has come out
of the 'war with a stronger de
termination to lite by the ruje of
righteousness and 'pursue the
course of truth and Justice. If we
are looking for a more- complete
reign pf justice, a more complete
supremacy of law, a more social
harmony we must seek it in the
paths of peace. There should be
an intellectual demobilization as
well as a military demobilization."
- As the ' soldiers were true to
their Colors in fighting the battles
for the liberties of the world, so
air citizens are called on Armis
tice Day to renew- their pledge of
loyalty to the colors of justice
and righteousness and truth in all
relations of life. .

lead most men to the point of de
cislon. Attended wholly by su
pernatural accompaniments, blind
ed and dazed, he fell to the earth,
heard the voice of the Risen and
Glorified Christ rebuking him, and
weakly asked what he ought to
do. He arose humbled and shak
ing, to be led into Damascus and
put to bed for three days in
house on the street called Straight.
There he pondered and prayed un
til Christ sent him relief and bap
tism at the hand of the' Christian
Ananias. . Ever afterwards Paul
spoke of this experience in a way
that shows that he did not consid
er it a subjective vision in any
sense, but tne direct laying upon
him of the constraining hand of
God.
Its nature was sudden and dras
tic. Saul had formerly thought
of Jesus of Nazareth as a mere
man; then as a bad man; then as
a Messianic pretender ' and dis
turber of the peace, as well as
blasphemer against God and the
Law. Therefore, he conceived it to
be his duty to do all in his pow
er to root over the pestilent relig
ion of his followers. No one ever
exceeded him in the inquisitor's
zeal. After the Damascus ex per
ience Saul looked upon the Naz
arene as the human Jesus, the Son
of Man; as the Messiah of propn
ecy, come in the fullness of time;
and as his Lord and Master, to
whom he owed obedience and
worship. Consequently, it now be
came his bounden duty to use all
otfsnesa of Jesus. The Holy plrit'
mlsk ti.hav Vai ied wlttf the di
pensatfons'of time.' It was first
creative and the bringing of order
but of chaos, then providential,
miraculous and inspirational. This
we learn by a study of Old Testa
ment history. That very history
He inspiried old testament writers
io pen. Peter, inspired by Him,
later wrote: "For no prophecy ,
ever came by the will of man: But !
men spake from God, being moved
by the Holy Spirit." (2 Pet. 1:21).
These- prophets of old uttered
tbing3' now revealed to us but
which they and the angela won
dered about at the time.
But in this study we are j not
concerned so much with His past
mission and work as we are with
His mission and work in f the
Christian dispensation, which be
gan at Pentecost and continues to
the end of time, i
First, we shall take tbe " Holy
Spirit's mission to the Apostles
and the early Church. He came
to the Apostles as a Comforter aft
er Jesus' ascension to Heaven.
This word translated "Comforter"
is for the Greek word "Paracle-
tos.". There is no English word
that fully expresses the meaning
of this original word. It is better
to Anglicize it Paraclete. It is
term only used by Jesus and is
promised to His apostles only.
Z. T. Sweeney says, "By examin
ing the lexicons we find that
Paraclete is: One called or sent
to assist another, one who pleads
the cause of another, a monitor,
an instructor, a guide, a helper, a
supporter, a comforter." He also
says, "Of thi3 Pareclete Jesus
says, 'Whom the world CANNOT
RECEIVE. He dwelleth with YOU
and shall be in YOU. He shall
teach YOU all things. He shall
bring all things to YOUR remem
brance whatsoever I have spoken
unto YOU. He shall testify of me.
He shall convict the world of sin.
He shall convict the world of
righteousness (of Jesus). He
shall convict the worl'd of judg
ment. He shall guide YOU into
all truth. He shall show YOU all
things to come. He shall receive
of mine and show it unto YOU."
The words emphasized show con
clusively that the Paraclete was
sent to the Apostles only and
through them he ministers to the
Church of Christ. These things
enumerated by Jesus we know He
did for the eleven apostles and
the Apostle Paul.
This immediate influence oTthe
Holy Spirit was needed in the be
ginning days of the Church. The
apostles were men from the com
mon walks of life and not well
educated. They had no written
gospel. The success of the enter
prise depended on the guidance of
this divine Personality. He came
on the Day of Pentecost and be
gan His work with the apostles
and the early Church. His first

Its effects were profound and
far-reaching. Saul himself was
swung completely over from de
spising, hating, and opposing
Christ to adoring, following, and
proclaiming Him. From making
havoc of the church, and breathing
out threatening and slaughter
against the Christians, he began
to exalt the church as the pillar
and ground of'ttruth, and to love
tbe Christians as the body of
Christ. He becaTnea"fiaming re

highest seats in the chorus pi the
Redeemed. He gave the church
its Christology, or doctrine of
Christ; its doctrine of justification
by faith, rather than by the works
of the law; its missionary passion;
and its evangelistic zeal. The
Christ of history, who called men
to him around the Galilean Lake;
then the Mediterranean Sea; then
the Atlantic Ocean; and now-the
Pacific Ocean, is the Christ whom
the converted Saul's interpretation

His mission of convicting the
Jewish world first; then, the
Gentile world of sin, the righteous
ness of Jesus anjd the judgment.
By use of His miraculous power
accompanying the gospel "once
for all delivered to the saints" on
Day of Pentecost, He establishes
the truthfulness of the gospel of
Christ and inspires the New
Testament writers to record it.
Once His message, thus established
by the miraculous, is recorded
there is no more need for the
miraculous. Thus they ceased at
the completion of His mission with
the apostles. Now "belief cometh
by hearing and, hearing by the
Word of Christ."

Dr. H. K. Stockwell of Salem
went with the Canadian army sur
geons to the WTorld war with Fred-
crick Grant Banting. They were
room mates at the front for seven
months. ' They had both attend
ed McGill medical, school, Mon
treal, the big institution of Can
ada. The first half day that Bant
ing worked as a surgeon on the
front, he received a German bullet
in his elbow,; that ranged down
through his hand, and put him out
of business as a surgeon. But it
turned him back to research work,
in which he had been engaged be
fore, though he was a mere' boy,
and a country boy at that. The
result was the discovery of in
Luckily I had not shut the hall
door behind me! That was my
first thought upon seeing Dicky,
thinking himself alone, tear out
the fly leaf of the book which had
been inscribed to him. Stepping
noiselessly back into the hall,
oasprl the door shut, and then
made a tremendous clatter of un
locking it and entering again.
Dicky advanced toward me as I
entered. He had had no time to
sit down, but a glance told me
that he had managed to replace
the book upon the table.
"You must be ambitious," he
said lishtlv. "going to market so
oariv Mav I relieve you of the
parcels?"
"You'd much better sit down,
I returned. "You look like a
ghost."
"And feel like the devil," he re
torted.
"You need some breakfast,'
said nractically.
"Breakfast!" he gave a little
shiver of repugnance. "I never
want to see anything to eat
a train."
The little speech, and Dicky's
exasDerated tone were extremely
familiar to me. He never fails in

taking him at his word, but

procedure.

said demurelv. although I had no
inclination for persiflage,
could blindfold you."
'Oet alone with you!" Dicky
growled good naturedly, and then
he indicated the book on the ta
ble with a careless gesture.
"Did you notice this," he asked
and I was conscious that behind
his apparent nonchalance he was
watching me keenly.
"Another of Your Discoveries,"
"Why, I saw It lying there t" 1
said, salving my conscience with
the assurance that I. was speaking
the exact truth. "What is it. an

open it, or read so much as a sin

pened the last time I read so
much as a single page. ou know
what happend the last time I read
a book on your recommendation?"
He laughed, ostensibly at the
recollection of my disgust uppn
that memorable occasion, but in
reality, I guessed, with relief, at
my decision. Dicky and I' rarely
agree in our estimate of the cur
rent fiction writers, and we have
had many a spirited, though good-
natured battle over novels. I con
gratulated myself upon my being
able to use that fact to ease his
mind concerning my knowledge
of the book he had left upon the
table.
But my frame of mind was by
no means a happy one as I went
out to the kitchen to prepare
breakfast. His act in tearing out
the inscription destroyed the faint
hope I had cherished that he had
not inspired the author's pen por
