The grand jury that has Just been empaneled and Instructed by Judge Sutton U looked to by our people with more than the usual expecta tion. The atmosphere has been ao surfeited of late Tito charges and countercharges of graft and corrup tion in official circles that an inquisi tion that will bold the culprits to ac countability, or declare the rumors groundless, baa become desirable and necessary. Judge Sutton bas outlined the work confronting the grand jury, with special emphasis upon certain classes of lawlessness which should hare Its particular attention. This enumerated list Includes Jury, brib ing, election frauds, liquor license shake-down, collusion with public contractors, violation of gambling and liquor laws, the social erU and Albert law, and combinations In re straint of trade. This la a formida ble program, opening a large field for grand Jury activity. , It will soon develop whether oar present grand Jury is on tbs square, eager to expose corruption and wrongdoing, or mors anxious to cover it np and protect tba wrong doers. If It buckles down to busi ness In earnest It will produce re sults. If it wants merely to mark time It will be better for the grand Jury to adjourn as soon as the routine proceedings are transacted.

The weskness of the Diss reign was Its apparent strength. Mexico was lost In Diss, Diss was Mexico. II lifted ths country to aa eminence never before enjoyed by It; be de veloped Its sericulture and Its mines, fostered commerce and Industry, es tablished Its credit abroad and brought foreign friendship and money Into It, bnt Dlas never ceased to ruls with an Iron band. II went Into power and emerged from It by tbo route of revolution. He presided over a people unfamiliar with any other system of administration and yet. In spite of the force of his domi nant personality, Dlas set aa example which made Maderos, and ths Ma- deroa were discontented patriots. What proportion of ths army that overthrew Dlas were really enlight ened Maderos It would be basardous to estimate, but ths fact remains that Madero and not Dlaa today sits In ths sest of authority in Mexico.

It is real mesa In our democratic World-Herald to talk about ths duty of the governor setting aa example of work and Industry while the Jun ior leg record of the last democratic governor, Mr. Ehallenberger, Is still so fresh la tscmory. tion of every legitimate business. The Rev. Mr. Peters' fad proved nothing and, according to reports, it did not even benefit anyone, for those who actually needed were crowded out at the bargain counters by a lot of shrewd bargain hunters with the money to buy. Business is business snd no legiti mate cog In the wheel of modem Industry la to be sacrificed In the so lution of this vital problem that touches every household. Ths mid dleman, the telephone, the clerk, the delivery wagon, legitimate profit all these are necessary elements. Baying' at thi Market. Tbs open markst, wbsrs producers tell directly to ths merchant and where ths consumer may boy in per son, 1 ths latest fad for curing the hlgh-cost-oMlrlng malady. Ths mid dleman Is, of courts, to be cat out and no unnecessary expenses allowed to corns between the producer and the consumer. Tbs first problem will be to determine whst are un necessary expenses. Thst may be de termined after it is ascertained that people dctlrs to drop their present convenient method of buying and re turn to the old way of - personally going to ths shop or store whenever they wsnt anything. See what all this Involves: It means for ths housewife completely to reconstruct her system of msn arement; it means much less work for ths telephone, for ths delivery wagon, the clerks; it mesas no em ployment for many, but mors for ths housewife, so much mors that comparatively few of them win give It a thought. If they have to revert to the old ways to get cheeps; prices. they will put np with what they have. As a matter of fact, that Is aot what ths people want and not the way to get at the problem that Is vexing them. The high cost of living is. after all, a part of a new economic system of living and it cannot be properly adjusted by supplanting the aew system with ths old. It Is useless to expect say serious Improvement by ths application of fads Ths Rev. Madison C Peters of New Tork, for example, pretends to have the panacea in ths form of a cost price provision shop.

The publishers of republican weekly newspapers throughout this section are Just in receipt of a letter offering them "free of charge, ex- pressaga prepaid,' plates containing Interesting matter In reference to the candidate of the national pro gressive movement," first page proof of ahlch Is enclosed, "being a series cf halftone news pictures with suit able descriptions of Senstor La For- lette oa the farm." ' The proof sheet is certainly illus trative of progressive campaigning, the whole family of the distinguished senator front Wisconsin being en listed as camera subjects for promot ing bis political fortunes. Not only are there snsp shots of ths progres siva candidate for president spraying ths orchard, driving a disc harrow and resting on tbs lawn in his work ing clothes, but also panoramic views of Mrs. La Follette and all ths little La Follettes csrefully posed to catch the eye. Hero are the five children huddled together on the grass; here is Mary on her favorite riding pony; hero It Kobert, Junior, starting out with ths trap to meet his father at tbs station; here It little Philip and a string of Shetland ponies, and here are Phil, Mary and Bob, Junior, play acting In costume In the front yard. It Is all very interesting, and is cer tain to appeal to tbs newspaper edi tors, particularly In view of tbs ss- surancs thst "ths plates ars ready for shipment," to be had by merely filling In the accompanying postal card, and ths tupply of striking pic tures paid for out of a fat campaign fund is not to be lightly passed up. Do aot misunderstand us as find ing fsult with this nsw departure In campaigning. Ths fact Is, ws think It a good thing, as recognising the power of printers' Ink, and the value of ths country newspaper In provid ing publicity which candidates need. Ths Innovation lies in pressing ths sntirs family Into service, Including father, mother, brother and sister, down to the little baby, and the pony and ths dog. It's a good gams. Push it along, snd wstch for the pictures in ths country newspapers. ilookinBaclaWard f COMPILED FROM BEE flt-M Ths word bas corns at last, It teems, that destiny It doing things In China.
