Their-investment has been so uncertain the last few years that they would welcome government ownership as a guarantee of interest and dividends. The returns might not. be so large as is possible under private ownership, but they would be regular and sure. Against these classes are ranged the business classes engaged in manufacture and commerce, a large propor tion of the professional classes and most of the farmers. Altogether the opponents of federal ownership at present appear to be greatly in the majority. TWO SETS OF PRODUCERS. A Chicago bank, presenting the farmers' view of the present economic situation makes thia incisive comment: "Farmers and ruralitics generally are seriously per plexed at being called upon to exert themselves to raise l'lrcei and larger crops in order to reduce the cost of liv ing for dwellers in towns and cities, while the latter seek: in the case of Russia. to organize and strive harder and harder to reduce work- ing hours and advance wages,, thus tending to increase! New York street car employes were granted a 10 per lending its assistance to the keeper of bees far more than in the past. Of course, bee-keeping is primarily a business where one Is liable to get stung. Still, when it comes to mak ing things hum, no occupation excels it. ( Late advices from Russia indicate that Lenine's pow er is practically gone and that a Lettish painter named Peter is tha real ruler of the former empire. The "reds" or real anarchists have gained control over the bolsheviks and massacres are reported in all parts of the country. THus the Russian uprising follows the course marked by the French revolution, the socialistic dreamers being driv en from power by the blood-letting anarchists and crim inals who seek power in order that they may loot and gratify their animal lust. After awhile, it may require several years, there will be a return to reason and out of the chaos and confusion will come order and a strong, stable government based oh democratic principles. This happened in France following the reign of Robespierre and the guillotine, and there will be a repetition of history ii. in HUNTING A HUSBAND BY MAY DOUGLAS the cost of wares which the farmer must buy."
