D. GORMAN. Atlanta, Ga. a . . . RADICAL THE DEARS IN THE WHEAT :t I' N as-ui!ly s.nl to con Sj t.'iv.j.l.ito the loni: list of da';itu!tii in front of the AmiTican wheat market as viewed t'V the bearish side of tlie K'amo. Presort prices in the north west are far below the Liver pool quotations, even when all possible shipping costs are con sidered. Northwest prices are below the Winnipeg prices at a time when daily stories are published to the effect Eng land will buy Canadian wheat because American wheat is too hiirh. In fact the present north west market is about what could be expected in normal times. It is not in keeping with present war conditions at all. Yet every day a fresh reason is given why wheat is scarcely worth the powder it would take to blow it up and the future is pictured in gloomy colors for the farmers. Is this genuine stuff they are telling our growers or are some people arranging the stage with a view to doing seme heavy buving in the near future? It will be interesting to see the outcome. NO ROOM FOR HIM ftp HERE are indeed signs of radicalism in connection with the coming confer ence over the Oregon-Washington land grant The sub-committee on rules seems to be arranging the en tire performance in advance of the session. This committee takes upon itself to say who shall; speak and by the invita tional power controls what is to be said. It is making careful preparations to the end noth ing shall interfere with the pre arranged program. This is a radical line of ac tion. ' The conference is sup posed to be called to discuss freely and openly how the best interests of the state may be served in connection with the land grant. But appearances indicate it may not be a real conference at all but a carnival of the steam roller, with an unseen power directing the machine when to puff, when to whistle and when to ramble. The radicalism in connection with this coming conference appear similar to the radical ism that drove through the "midnight resolution" under mining the interests of the state for the benefit of the railroad. It will be well for people to watch the land grant confer ence and the methods used in formulating its recommenda tions. VERY POOR BUSINESS j0 man has ever been JTJ known to get rich through saving money by riding the brake rods in stead of paying his fare on a train. It is one oft'.ie poorest lines of b'islnoris on earth. The boy who travels that way risks- losing too rmirh to save too little, rn Roy Tillman now realizes. The better the boy the prcater the risk be cause he will have more to lose and will know less about the fame. Any man that ha? to travel can afford to pay his fare. It means but a few davs extra work at the most and then he can travel in safety and de cency, lie runs no chance of being maimed or killed and buried as an unknown hobo. If it is adventure that U wanted there are better ways of getting it. Join the navy, or become a lion Mmter or an aviator, or an auto racer and ret killed In style. -jHE growler has lost his grip on the good things of life. He is still wait ing for the "Prosperity wave" which has passed over and ar ound him. He has made a place of desolation for himself and the brightness of life is not for him. No stars shine through storms upon his vis ion. After summing the prosper ity we enjoy and that which is to come the billion bushel wheat crop the wonderful corn harvest, and other bles sings of a fruitful year so far in excess of preceding years. The Fort Worth Record says: "Why should Americans growl?" And among other reasons why they should not these are given: There is no starvation here. There is no devastation of country or town. There is no slaughter of the flower of our youth. There are no Red Cross flags flying over count- ' less hospitals filled with the maimed and dying. There are no camps of famishing refugees, feed ing upon the charity of the world. Here all is peace and plenty. All is peace, save for the la mentations of those who will not see the light ; who will not recognize Prosperity because all their forecasts have been in the opposite direction. They belong to a colony of pessimists under a gloom-sky of their own imagining. But they will not remain there: They creep out to cast a shad ow on the light and chant dirges when the bands are playing dance-tunes. The tow n-builders and country-builders the makers of good times move on with out them. For they would only clog the wheels of pro gress and cast blight where bloom i3. Atlanta Constitution.

President Wilson called leaders the Senate and House for the most important conference on prepared ness for war so far held by this ad ministration. Out of it will directly grow, it is stated, a policy to be fol lowed in the coming session of con gress. This is a statement made by Sena tor Tillman, chairman of the senate committee on naval affairs, when he was invited to take part: "The purpose of the conference is the begining of the formulation of definite measures and plans to be placed before congress at its coming session In obedience to public opinion aroused in favor of preparedness for war. I predict without hesitation that every man at the conference will back President Wilson in any measure he may advocate fur increas ing our national defences. "I believe this government should "The present war has taugh us the need of being prepared. We want to be prepared nut so much for war as against war. At the conference I shall advocate strongly a larger army. We need many more submarines of the type which have proved most suc cessful in the European conflict. aiso nave many more cruisers of the fastest type possible to be built. But mainly the submarine has become the great factor in naval warfare, and we should be alive to its possibilities. "The storiiKe battery invented by Thomas A. Edison. I am told by na val pens, will be a great asset to our submarines, making them more efifcient and less dangerous to their crews, in that the battery does not Kenerate chlorine gas. "Then, too, we must provide for the purchase, manning and care of a fleet of aeroplanes. "I do not favor a large standing army, but I am strongly In favor of training many more, army officers than we do, and I favor also military training fur boys and youths in schools and colleges."
