See the story beginning on page 1, Oh, Mr. Jardine! Did you notice that the Chicago board of trade gamblers jumped the price of wheat nearly 100 pet cent more than 5 per cent the other day and the board did nothing ubout it? If one of our readers, stimu­ lated by Mr. McMillen’s arti­ cle on this page, produces enough more food to supply one or two of those who are flocking from the farm to the city, that will justify the cost of publishing the essay. Relief on many a farm can be had sooner by courageous­ ly dealing with home problems than by waiting for legislative mills which, like those of the gods, grind slowly, but unlike them sometimes do not grind fine enough, for use. A Portland banker who would like to be United States senator declined to seek the republican nomination because the law restricts campaign ex­ penses to 10 per cent of the salary of the position sought. The nomination would cost more than that and he refused to evade the law by camou­ flaging part of his expenses. Several others are either more optimistic or less scrupulous. Mr. Fall had a fall one fall, or some other time of year, after having boasted: "We have learned how.” Now the world can know how. He got his money, but he lost his cabi­ net position and his friends (except a few' crooks) and he is not yet certain that he may not go to prison. Any man can learn how to make crook­ ed money, but not every man is willing to pay the price, even for $100,000. Perhaps Fall wouldn’t be if he could start over again. Perhaps when he boasted that he had learned Jiow he had not learned it all.
