III ru4(oU It Remains to Be Seen. j If the president's plan carries, Attorney I (ioMcrni McRcynolds' fears of Folk's New Haven Investigation affording Immunity to some of I tho vital elements are to be tested in the cruel- hie of criminal prosecution. The president gen- i orotisly writes a rlnan hill for his attorney gen- t oral in publicly endorsing and commending "the action of tho department throughout," though Mt'Ronolda persist In handing his friend, Folk, .a fow more short-nrm Jabs for overriding his wifdiet and taking the bull by the horns. Com pliments having been exchanged and the pre liminaries disposed of, we may now turn oilr atto-tlon to the forthcoming big show. The democratic administration It at last to proceed to the criminal prosecution of a male f of tor 6f great wealth, provided the federal grand jury, yot to bo called, returns the Indict ments. It ought to prove a most interesting procedure, especially with Brother McRcynolds ns prosecutor. But he says he Intended nil along to proceed under the1 criminal clause. Well, this much may bo said now for tho Folk InveH tlgatton It proved a verltablo upheaval of Information. It brought to thd surface, evidently, tln hole rottenness of the New Haven mess. To the untutored layman It would appear that it nnythlng .effectual were accomplished as a ta.'eRimrd for the future agatnBt such rapacious manipulation of railroads for private' pelf, It would be more' apt to come from Folk's fearless activity than Mcileynolds' dilatory policy. a ift$&f Industrial Unrest. ' Admittedly the National Commission on In (tustr'ul Relations, now meeting in Chicago to determine tho causes and remedies of industrial unrest wilt deserve all possible credit If It comes anywhere near solving this long defying prob lem. No one denies the existence of such unrest, but like social discontent in the hiMory of the Norld, It should be regarded as a rotlex of Im provement and not deterioration. Ours Is still tho land of supreme opportunity. No othor offers ns much- to honest labor. And here, too, em ploye and employer are steadily bettering their mutual relations and recognizing their mutual responsibilities, as witnees the- determination of th'e'englnemen and railroads to arbitrate their differences. '' Whatever demand "may exist for a general investigation by this commission, It should take pains to emphasise this point, and discourage uselosH and menacing agitation in designing or unbalanced minds. Let It be careful to give no color to falso claims or apprehensions. Turn on all the light posslblo looking toward the solution of any real problem, but avoid humoring that all too provalent prattle of pessimists and dema gogues about tho perpetual onmlty between the man who toils and. tho one wJio reaps, as If all did ndt both totl nnd reap, who do either hon estly. , i mm i MHtco raont act: riLtj The grand vnt of tha fir ?ht street parade thla morning with to firemen In Jlne with showy .uniforms, flying banner, and .hlnlng JT.re apparatus.

Nominal or Real King; T Does England wont a real king or merely a nominal monarch? T.he question 1s prompted by the severe attacks made on hls,(majesty for calling a confer ence of the olght factional leaders on the pending Ulster crisis and for bis unprecedented utterance "tliaf "tho cry of civil war Is on tho lips of tho most responsible and sober-minded of my people." It has come to such a pats that Premier Aflqultll feels obliged publicly to assume" full onus for the king's speech, which ho says was submitted to and approved by htm before, de livered. At long distance It seems that whother or not the king oxcoeded his prerogatives, tho movelf fruitful, should elevate him above the level of figurehead rulers and may help his couptry out of the storih ,now raging. To avert civil war, sonm receding must be done, and that, evjdontly, Is what the king.haB.ln pilnd. Without nnrInt(mate knowledge of all tho niceties of royal, prerogatives, ona.would suppose that as a principle of common sense "and plain justice, the king had acpmpllshod something In thus getting tagotherrtuo e'lght.men in control of tho situation In .the, British Jslos, some of whom were not even on speaking terms.

President Wilson is taking his time to pick the hiiccessor to tho late Justice Lurton of the siijirorao cdurt, but current gossip continues to favor the promotion of a mombor of the cabinet, ticcretary of the Interior Lane, Secretary of War Garr'ron and Attorney General McReynolds bp'nt; most frequently mentioned.

Secretary of the Navy Daniels also has a law school parchment, which made him none tho worse as an editor. Coming closer home, tho president must know that Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, besides having qualified as a son-in-law, has a record of bo'.nff a lawyer before he dreamed of being a financier.

SOUTH OMAHA, July 2Z-To the Editor of Tho Bee! Some people dd not believe In bestowing bouquets until a person is dead. If anybody has any bouquets for me 1 want them while' I am alive, for they will do me no. good after I am dead. I feel constrained at thla time, to throw a few bouquets to Mr. Thomas J. Parker of Houtli Omaha, who has Just received a promotion with Swift & Co. that Is well merited and shows what a young: man can accomplish by faithful and persevering work. Mr. Parker In his position, which will take him to the Ar gentine rcpubllo In South America, be yond tho equator, will receive more pay each year than 75 per cent of the pro fessional men of Douglaa county make. If the yuung men who have recently graduated from the law schools, medical schools and dental schools would try for some position of trust in the Houth American republics, they would make more than most of them will make In tho next twenty years in the professional lines. Follow the example of my near neighbor and friend, Thomas J. Parker, and you will make a greater success than In the professional fields where so many mako failures. F. A'. AGNBW. Wonmn Suffrage nul Prohibition. To tho Editor of TJie bee: So many people arpl being misled on the liquor question by suffragists that we submit a few facts th the subject. Inrt recent Issue of your paper Mrs. J. F. Hhlpman of Emerson, la,, states that what is true of one state may' be true of another. Granted. Here are some facts; Bix years prior to the adoption of wo man suffrage in California, LoS Angeles voted on local option, and, the measure was defeated two to one About a, month after women were given the ballot , In I.os Angeles the question was 'again voted on, and the saloons won three to one, .this where registered women's votes were In the majority. At an election In California April IS, 1914, thirteen cltlea and towns voted' on the liquor question. Of this number nine voted wet, four smalt towns voted xlry. In Colorado, where women have voted for fWenty-one years, there are only ten counties out of sixty-two that are dry. In Colorado Springs the sale of liquor was prohibited for many years. Women voted on the question two years ago and liquor selling waa legalised. According to the census of 1914 Colorado Springs has S19 more women than men over twenty-one years of age. At a local option election In Illinois April 7, 1914, about 1.100 saloons out of 1,000 were abolished. Twelve dry counties wero added to the thirty already dry. making forty-two dry counties out of the 100 In Illinois, Kentucky, where men alone vote, has ninety-nine dry counties out of 120, and Missouri has sixty-five no license counties out of 114 in that atate. Iowa has seventy-seven dry counties out of ninety-nine counties in that statu At an election In Minnesota April 7, 1914, two thirds of the counties where local option elections were held voted dry, and towns that had licensed saloons for sixty years voted do by men's votes. Right out of twelve counties In Michigan voting on (he liquor question April 6, 1914, voted dry, Including Lansing, the capital of the state, and this by men's votes, while Bprlngfleld, the capital of Illinois, where there are ton more women than men over twenty-one years old, voted wet. Kugene W. Chafln, former candidate on ' the prohibition ticket for president, said at Long Reach. Cal., February 15, 1914, that the support expected by prohibition ists In California from women had' not yet developed. It Is a significant fact that prohibition states are all male suffrage atates. with the exception of Kansas', and prohibition antedated suffrage in Kansas many years. ASSOCIATION OPP08KD TO WOMAN SlTFFRAOIi A Question of Ifnnesi Iluslne'sa.' COUNCIL, BLUFFS, la.. July a. To the Editor of The Hee: We hear much about big business. We talk a great deal regarding business. President . Wilson senate and congress am engaged to ascer tain "what la honest bus InessT' I Is honest tiuslncas as a whole, big and little, a rule or an exception? Let me relate something: A storekeeper In this city who advertises extensively hi the Friday evening papf ra, and. .Satur day morning papers, circulating In this locality, advertised among other thtnga j "pork shoulder 1J cents per pound.'' f ... i ... ..I nH c . yuivnn.cu wu uuuua, a a. lit., a pur shoulder and was charged IS cents per pound. Remarking that It was adver tised for IS cents, 1 received the answer "that price waa good for Saturday onfy." (Saturday waa a holiday and the- mer chant's store only open a few hours In the morning.) Now what sort of business I is the aforesaid transaction? Is It honest business VICTOR II STHPPl'HN. 5417 Avenue Q h Enforcing Pure Food Laws Food Commissioner Ladd Eelates How He Does It in North Dakota. "In general there are two metrcoos for enforcing laws, especially our food, drug and sanitary laws. The one Is to assume that everx man Is wholly famil iar with the requirements of tho law, and, wherever there Is a failure to comply with the mttf Itself, to" prosecute the Individual ns an oftVndeK This course means a large amount of court work, a great deal of energy expended in the collecting of information and data preparatory to making the prosecutions In court, and often a large share of one's energies and thought are taken up. "The other method Is more properly called that of publicity and education. Laws can be successfully enforced In any community only as far as the people will support them. When the public are -educated they will demand what is right and a compliance with the law. Through this process of education and publicity tho manufacturer and retailer become familiar with tho requirements and take steps to comply with every reasonable provision of the statute or regulations made thereunder. "1 have found that the one thing the trade dreads above all elHj is publicity, and publicity is the great est corrector of evils. I would, not have It under stood that all prosecution should be given up for pub licity. At times It becomes necessary to prosecute vigorously. It has been the rule- In the' food -department of North Dakota to go after the big offenders, but before doing so to be sure of our ground and be sure that an educational campaign has been carried on so that the public are In sympathy and will sup port the enforcement of thot feature of the law to be 'dealt with. This course means a large amount of personal correspondence with thv Individual and the offenders or violators, but In the . majority of cases I have found, I believe In 90 per cent of the Instances, the violator of the law has been In a meas ure Ignorant of the requirements or did not know that the product which he was handling was adul terated or mlsbranded, As soon as his attention was called to the matter he has made the necessary change to comply with the requirements, "The cost of prosecution Is far greater than that of publication and the work not nearly so 'effectual. During the year of 1913 In North Dakota, there were but eight prosecutions. This has meant, however, a large amount of work educating the public, publish ing the results of analyses and getting' the Informa tion before the public. Our methods of publication are of several kinds. The Information where analysis or Inspection has been made goes direct to the man ufacturer, retailer or other interested party, no mat tor whether the product is classed as Illegal, mls branded, below standard, passed or legal, etc., Then there have been the general addresses given by the commissioner or others before conventions, woman's clubs, public organizations, and at various places whereby the Information could be placed before the public. "Bulletins are published regularly each month and generally distributed to those Interested. Circulars and letters of general information to the trade or some portion of the trade have frequently been pre pared and given out, together with rulings to make clear tho Interpretation Uy the department. The an nual report gives a general summary of the work done for tho year, while one of the most- Important publications has been that of furnishing, twice each year, to the counts' auditor of each county In the state a list of tho adulterated and' mlsbranded food products, beverages, etc.. found by analysis ar.d In spection, mis list to De puDiisneu twicer uunntr me months of July and January of each year, In all of the official county papers of the state. This list Is preserved In many a home as a guide, and dealers throughout the state have come to look for It to Inform them of the products classed In violation of the food laws. "The question has been raised frequently whether it Is profitable to go to the expense of publishing this list In each of the official county papers. Our experience haa been that $1.00 spent for publication of tbjs UnU means, at least 110.00 s'ayedjn court prose cutions, to say nothlnB of energy saved to other pur poses. It ts, therefore, on economic proposition as well as educational. At the same time the educa tional work has tended to bring to the support of the department the good will of the', people of the state and of the various organisations, clubs, federations, etc., that are Interested In work of this kind. "Whichever the means adopted for the enforce ment of the food and sanitary Inspection laws, one of tho first essentials Is to have the support of public sentiment, and I know of no means whereby tho support of all parties generally interested In better things for the state can bo secured than through pub lication of trade evils and the placing: of the full In fo'rmatlpn before the public. When laws have been found defective or not far-reaching enough publica tion has been a first necessity to Inform the public and tho people have stood ready to aid In securing the enactment of laws to remedy and prevent exist- Twice!
