THE USAGES OF WAR.
President Wilson ov.s it to himself and to the country
to admit frankly that war serves a multitude of purposes for
the Democratic party. Evil it may be and disastrous in its
effects but it lias certainly saved the Administration a lot of
fruitless explanation and argument.
It has, for example, enabled the Democratic party to as
severate, with rather noisy persistency, that there has been
something Wilson has kept the country out of.
It has enabled the benignant Mr. Retinoid, President Wil
son's Secretary of Commerce, to explain why the cost of living
is increasing.
It is used by the same gentleman as the occasion for deny
ing that the exportation of war supplies has anything to do
with the country's properity.
It has enabled the Administration to bolster up the failing
revenue by levying a tax on munitions.
It is used to demonstrate the sagaciousness of President
Wilson in upholding the rights of American citizens on the
high seas.
It is given as the reason, by way of apology to the pacifists,
for the belated recognition by the Administration of the need of
preparedness.
It affords a convenient explanation why anything in the
last three years has gone wrong, although it accounts in no
way for anything that has gone right.
President Wilson may display an abhorrence of war but
for liis campaign managers the word seems to have a seductive
ant! cueering sound.

DEMAND IS GROWING FOR AN EMBARGO ON WHEAT.
It would be a rash prophet who ventured a confident
prediction on the future prices of wheat. Not within the
memory of living men have so many conflicting and erratic
factors entered into the problem.
Eastern United States is importing wheat from Argentina,
while the Pacific Northwest is soon to export 100,000 bushels to
Chili. Dakota and Minnesota mills are closing down for want
of stocks of milling wheat. Drouth in Argentina is helping the
bulls and the bears counter with the did chestnut about the
impending release of Russian grain by the opening of the Dar
danelles.
Meanwhile the bilkers are cutting down the size ot loaves
and conducting a growing agitation for a government embargo
on export of wheat, ('(inventions held 'in New York, I'hiladt
phia, Indiana, Michigan. Ohio and other states have passed
resolutions urging President Wilson to exert his influence with
congress for the enactment of an embargo law.
In some of these resolutions the president is asked to con
vince couuress in snecial session, but there will be "nothing
doing" there. Mr. Wilson will have no desire to "start some
thing" in these critical weeks of the presidential campaign, and
congressman could not be dragged hack to Washington be
fore November 7, even though the president had a million
horse-power block and tackle to help him pull them in.
The situation will bear watching, however, by the grain
growers of the Pacific northwest. After the election is over,
and Congress assembles in December, the demand for a law to
prohibit the exporting of wheat will roll down on Washington
with petitions signed by thousands of men and women, and the
number may paf-s into the millions The Northwest will be po
pular in the large cities of the land in New York, Philadelphia,
Boston, Chicago, St. Louis, SanFrancisco, Los Angeles, and pos
sibly in Portland and Seattle. Cheaper bread will be a popular
slogan among the poor and those living on a narrow wage.
It would be unpopular out in the open spaces of the bind,
but the fact needs to be remembered that action there is slow,
while action can lie ouiek in' the cities of the land. There is
dantrer that coiiim-css tnav be led to believe that the voice of
the nation is insistent and strong for the locking of our ports
against the passing out of wheat.
History, however, is against an embargo on the products of
the United States, Congress tried it in the early years of the
republic as retaliation for violation of our neutral rights by the
belligerents in the Napoleonic wars. But is was highly unpopu
lar and had soon to be given up.
The present agitation for an embargo, however, is a move
ment that needs to be watched if our farmers would not be
caught napping when conflicting interests are very wide awake.
