In response . to your uivilatiou. let
tun nsk: Why sliuukl I bow in bumble
Kervility to tin) uditor of tbe Mfdford
Bun, tnidjjo to his office mill submit
Jike a disobedient child, to his oral
pastiftation for hiivinK dared to ex
press nn opinion on the cliaruetor of
tlio prmideulial candidates? In lie
onother kaiser, to command ino thus?
Ojut. is it to him whether or not I
liuvo iv filiyhieiit iduuttty nnd u iiolit-
kal opiuiou?
I chu treat swb a command only
Willi contempt. It is in line, however,
toith the present TMilicy- of the Sun
editor. I fain would talk with him if
I hod reason to believe tluit his par
tisnn heart Could bfl touched with
truth, but he appears to lui've no sluifl
oi truth in his eanimi(fii quiver.
' Unlike the millionaire Indies of the
New York 40U, 1 have too much sclf
Ifspvel to imoko eiiiiuvttes; neither

the money honked with the souJ-sweat
of child labor and th tears of broken-hearted
mothers.
You and I, and vour children and
mine, hrlcd to pay for this uoldcn
K)M'cinl train that brings its burden
of jewelled bodies to Haunt their
vis'ilth in onr faccfl. So did the tic
nltfblcd editor of the Hun. Hut he ap
pears not to have risen tu the plane
of truly American manhood on which
he dftntt to express resentment
naiust the perfumed Rlainor and tin
nelixl effrontery disphiyed by the
presence of this Roldcn special in the
west. He ndvcrtujcn it with approval,
liut when I, a )oor woman, raminsr my
own living:, dare to enuresis nn opinion
i-ontmry to his wicked belief, he com
mands me to come before him and let
him see whether or not am dead or
nlivel . ,
I have contempt for his effrontery,
but I pity him for his luck of heart.
I-am only sorry that I cannot make
liim ashamed.

WASHINGTON, Oct. II. Th
federal farm loan hoard's warning to
farmers ng'uinst swindlers seeking to
prolit by organization ot land banks
has bexun to bring in many reiwrts of
victims. The board recently an
nouneed Hint it would refuse chnrters
to any banks in whose organization
money had gone tor promotion pur
poses.
Jacob Ft. Itlnmcr of ' Denchlnnd.
Mont., wrote to the lioard that nn
agent ot a promotion concern pre
tended to have been employed by tin:
government and got from him a if'jao
check fur ten shares of slock and that
he later received notice to pay ifT.'iO
more.
K. T. I'eck of Fishtail, Mont., com
plained that agents of the same con
cern told him that to borrow he must
become a shareholder of the concern.
I'eck paid $25 and obligated himself
tor several more payments.
J he board today issued this supple
mental warning:
Fanners who borrow through the
National Farm Loan associations arc
not required to pay any advance com
missions. So all of these enterprises
requiring payments from farmers are
leelared by the board to he fraudulent
and the attention of the department of
justice has been called to the matter
and an attempt will be made to bring
the offenders to justice."
DAVID LUBIH FOR WILSON
(Continued From 1'ngc, One).
"Willi Wilson it was different. I
wanted to see him about n certain
matter. 1 was allotted forty-five min
utes, and 1 got forty-five minutes. Ilu
didn't tell me stories nor look at bis
watch, nor well- we interrupted a
dozen times. I Kut a real hearing
as a business man expects to get from
the general manager of the nation's
business. He was effective; he was
efficient.
Call l'itm i'ni'iiicps.
Let mn give you another instance.
A couple of .veal's ago twenty-seven
men, commissioners of agriculture,
distinguished men, representing the
gTent agricultural interests of Amer
ica, went to him. They were urging a
measure similar to thai which is so
effective in Canada, to improve the
quality and enhance the value and in
general extend the whole principle of
crop reports. He went over their pe
tition with Ihein, with a kind of ginn
humor lighting up his face as he
waded through that hill, punching a
hole in it here, criticising it there,
pointing out the weakness of this
phrase, the vagueness of that clause.
For a while tbcM big agriculturists
didn't know how io take him. They
thought he was merely criticising
their proposed bill, lie was. He was
tearing it to pieces, but before he got
through, these men saw that almost at
once he had got their point of view
and wns helping them by putting in a
word here, striking out a phrase there,
adding one here, helping them draw a
bill more efficient to perform the work
they wanted than they themselves had
devised.

'President Wilson brings a --rliol-nrly

good politics and good economies are

TO EXTEND TRACK

eastward bound submarine ill the At
lantic yesterday morning she was ap
parently in pursuit of n Danish pas
senger ship, the Ilcllig Olav, accord
ing to observers on the deck of the
Ilovic, which arrived here today..
The nationality of the submarine
was not identified. The Ilovic, in fear
of attack because of being a freight
diip, put on full s)Med and headed
lirectly west. At the time she pass
ed out of sight of the other tw-o ves
sels the Danish boat still seemed to
be endeavoring to escape from the
submarine-. The weather was clear
niuj the Ilcllig Olav was between two
and threcmilcs distant at the moment
she, was first observed, with the sub
marine about one mile to the Dane's
stern. This was about 8:.'K) a. m.,
when the Ilovic was approximately
200 miles east of New Yolk.
The Ilcllig Olav left here Thursday
for Copenhagen and other Scandinav
ian ports, carrying llti passengers in
the first cabin, 'XT in the second
cabin and steerage passengers. Many
of those in the cabins arc Americans.
At the time she was sighted by the
Ilovic the Dane W'us flying no flag,
hut her identity was distinguished by
her mime and the Danish flag painted
m her side.

clnred to have totalled a million men.
declares the Overseas News Agency.
The news agency's military critic
writes:
"The heavy sacrifices ot the Brit
ish and French for the recapture of
each square yard on the Soiuiuo Is
proved by the fact that in three and
'one-half mouths about 9U fresh di-.
visions were virtually ui-ulhilatcd. so
that It was necessary to withdraw
them forever. (Ninety divisions rep,
resents a total of considerably more
than 1.000,000 men. There 'are
about 12 000 men in a French .di
vision and 19,000 111 a British di
vision). "These divisions disappeared com
pletely from battle. FJfty-flvc di
visions In consequence of their great
losses, were able to engngo In coin
bnt only twice, 1! three times, and
only one was able to engago In com
bat four times. Four divisions had
suffered so severely after their sec
ond 'engagement that It was neces
sary to send them to quiet sectors,
but on critical days thoy were again
