RAILWAY WAGE INCREASE.
The report of the United States Railroad
Labor board will be carefully conned by all
thf. interested parties, which finally includes the
entire citizenry of the United States. It in
volves a matter of $2,000,000 a day, that imust be
met by the railroads, and in the end paid by
their patrons. For this reason the public is in
tensely interested.
Yet the public has a more direct couccrn in
feeing that justice is done the men. Disclosures
that accompanied the "outlaw" switchmen's
strike astonished those who studied the problem.
Wages paid the men were not in many cases
sufficient to meet family expenses, and utmost
economy did not permit the stretching of the
pay check over the cpntinually widening family
expense bill. It was this fact that brought the
wage board into existence, and undoubtedly this
has had material influence in determining its
iction. )
The tward appears ample. At any rate it
amounts to 60 per cent of the demands tiade,
and has the merit of coming from a board o"f
men not'only familiarly versed in, railroad em
ployment and conditions, but .sympathetic with
the employes. These- men were well equipped
through their access" to information as well as
personal experience with the problems pre
sented, and their decision deserves respectful
consideration because of thjs fact. That some
inequalities may be left is inevitable, yet the at
titude oi the board is disclosed in the final para
graph of its award, which sets out that:
The intent of this article is to extend this
decision to a miscellaneous class of super
visors and employes, practically impossible of
specific classification, and at the same time to
insure to thera the same consideration and
rate increase as provided for analogous service.
In this regard the"" award is fari;i advance
of the McAdoo increases, which were generally
attained by rule of thumb methods and not by
any carefully reasoned analytical process. What
the public would like to see is well paid railroad
men efficiently co-operating to restore the de
moralized transportation industry to a service
able basis. The advance in wages will be met
without grumbling, if it only brings with it the
zealous energy needed for the prompt dispatch
of business depending on the railroads. This
fan be furnished alone by the men, and the an
swer is now up to them.
The fact that the board's award is binding
on neither the men nor the companies must be
taken into consideration. Acceptance of the
.decision and payment of increases therein con
tained must be voluntary. How long it, will
take the union heads and the managers to come
to a conclusion no ne ean tell. The brotherhood
chiefs are in consultation at Chicago now, and
it may be that they will soon decide as to their
course, which may have some effect on the
actio;) of the roads. The end of the controversy
may be in sight, and it may be some distance
off; but the American people will devoutly iiope
that a settlement lias been made.

Volstead' Nomination Assured.
) A court decision adjudging Andrew J. Vol
stead to be the republican nominee for congress
from the Seventh Minnesota district may set at
rest the speculation as to who will succeed him
as chairman of his committee in the Sixty
seventh congress. On the face of the returns
Mr. Volstead, who ran asa republican, was de
feated by a Non-l'artisan leaguer, also running
as a republican. A contest based on alleged un
fair tactics and practices was started, and the
judge who heard the case has decided that Rev.
Mr. Kvale, who apparently defeated Volstead,
is not entitled to the nomination because of the
methods he employed to win. '
It is interesting right here to note that the
primary election turned on cliarges made by
Rev. Mr. Kvale that Mr. Volstead is aa atheist.
'On- the witness stand the reverend gentleman
admitted that he considered such a charge scan
dalous, but defended himself by stating that he
had been informed by a minister of another sect
that Mr. Volstead had been holding communica
tions with person's thought to entertain atheistic
sentiments, and so he felt justified in accusing
his, opponent of being an atheist! Tlve fact was,
established that Mr. Volstead was confirmed
in the Lutheran faith, of which church Mr.
Kvale is a preacher, and that publicly at least he
Still professes that faith.
' The outcome'will bring bo joys to the wets,
who have already celebrated the ' political
demise of Andrew J. .Volstead, and have dis
posed of the chairmanship he holds, that of the
judiciary committee. They will be required to
seek consolation in some othe'r form than that
-afforded by the prospective modification of -the
Volstead act
- Eight Kind of a Wind.
"Sailing sharps expect that Shamrock will
show unexpected sailing speed when $he carries
the wind suited to her-and find a sea that will
not pound against her bow," say the Associated
Press account of tha preliminaries to 1h" yacht
race. Which recalls the old time story of the
printer who only asked "reprint copy and a
left hand light" in order that he might astonish
the world by his typesetting epeed. The
weather god, .however, gives no account to. the
peculiar qualifications of the. Shamrock or any
other vessel when he provides winds. "From
generation unto generation the wind has "blown
- in italowa sweet way,and the. yacht that finally
wins the race is the one that sails best under
the conditions that exist at the moment. In
this will be found the whole story of success in
life. Anybody can get ahead if provided with
exactly the sort of circumstances fitted to his or
her peculiar talent. Small credit goes with such
achievement. The one who can go out and
take things as they come, wresting victory from
such situations as are met, whether favorable or
unfavorable, is the one who not only achieves
real success iu life, but who deserves the honor
that goes with it. JThe right kind of a wind
would be nice for all of us, but it blows for
mighty few.
Sermon and Church Prosperity.
The late Dean Liddon, one of the greatest
preachers in the Churph of England, once
said that a first-class man could preach twenty
sermons a year; a man of earnestness and
some intellectual endowment might preach
one a week, while, a fool could preach any
number.
When we talk of our empty churches,' is it
not rather a problem of empty pteachers?
The experience in these columns at least has
been that there is an overflowing and attentive
congregation when the preacher has some
thing to say. Wall Street Jpurnal
The churches have their problems, both spir
itual and material. Too many of tbem function
feebly. Religion, as given expression in church
organizations, must have efficient business man
agement, and the average pastor on whose
shoulders rest both the spiritual and financial
prosperity of his church, has more than he can
handle efficiently.
We have sometimes' wondered what Christ
would think of the commercial rating commonly
given the churches of all denominations by their
pastors. And yet, how else can they accurately
appraise the membership of various charges?
The dollar can .measure ecclesiastical efficiency
as well as business ability. We hear of $2,000
men, or $5,000 men, iu every" line and profession,
including the ministry. And we have churches
justly rated by the same dollar mark.
There are preachers'who can wholly satisfy
their congregations with two sermons a week,
and others who must devote a month to prepare
a sermon of sufficient strength to meet the re
quirements of their position. It all depends on
the audience. Eighty years ago preachers
talked for two and three hours. Now, except
on unusual occasions, the best pulpit orators
pack what they have to say into twenty or
thirty minutes. Much may be said in fifteen
minutes, "and very little in an hour and a half.
Church going used to be a trying ordeal. Now
it is a pleasant and inspiring habit. Get it. It is
worth while.
Canada New Premier
Bone Dryness and Bone Heads.
It is a whaling punishment Uncle Sam is
prepared to impose upon people who clan
destinely and contrary tothe statutes provided
seek to manufacture the wherewithal to quench
their thirsts.
Down in Missouri last month internal rev
enue officers found a home-made still and two
gallons of corn whisky on the premises of a
ppor devil whose little farm is assessed for taxa
tion at a valuation of $480. The taxes and
penalties now recommended against him amount
to $2,475.85 in all eleven taxes and five penal
ties. In addition to these, this home distiller is
liable to another fine of $1,000 for violating the
Volstead law, and to five years' imprisonment.
The federal government, with theTull ap
proval of distillers, made the penalties for illicit
manufacture of liquors very stiff, and when con
gress 'passed the prohibition enforcement law
the friends of bone dryness did not overlook
any little additional thing that might deter citi
zens from establishing basement distilleries. It
would be our guess that any sane citizen, no
matter how thirsty, would hesitate a long while
before rendering himself liable to taxes and
penalties totaling $3,500, and to the loss of his
liberty for five years and compromise on but-termilkr-before
running the risks4of private di
tilling. ,
Two Ohio Men.
Ohio has never expressed a choice between
Warren G. Hardingand James M. Cox. Both
men have been successful in politics and in
business. Harding has lived in a small city in
a big,' comfortable wooden house, on a nice
income from a newspaper, of local circulation.
A United States senatorship came his way by
the vote of the people. Cox lives in a big
cit and has two newspapers one in Dayton
and one in Springfield both in elaborate mar
ble structures the Dayton office being archi
tecturally magnificent? one of the show places
of tVie city. His home is a very large and
palatal marble structure, that reminds one of
the great country seats on Long Island, at
Newport, and other places where millionaires
gratify their taste for luxurious living. The
governorship came his way and he took it.
Of the two men Senator Harding's manner
of life comes much nearer to the average than
that of Governor Cox. There is no magnificence
about Harding's place of business or residence.
Magnificence is "the striking feature both of
Cox's residence and his newspaper property. But
there has been no direct contest for politicat
honor between the two Ohio men, although Cox
once assisted in Harding's defeat for the kov
ernorship and Harding once assisted in Cox's
defeat for the same office.
When Wilson carried Ohio by 89,300 in J916,
Cox was elected by less than 7,000. In 1916.
running against an unpopular governor who had
antagonized his party's county organizations all
over the state, Cox was elected by 12,000 the
wet majority of Cincinnati.
Prediction is made in a Columbus dispatch
to the Sun and New York Herald that Gover
"hor Cox will openly espouse the wet cause soon.
The Anti-Saloon League, which has consistently
fought Cox's wetness for eight years, is pressing
him so vigorously that he will be unable-to side
step the matter, 'tis said. '
The yacht races are costing $5,000,000., But
remember that every one of those dollars are
going to men who peed them morethan those
who are spending them. x-

Toronto, July 17. Arthur Meighen, Canada's
new prime minister, is only 44 years old. Bor
den was 57 and Laurier 55 when called to the
high office and most of their predecessors were
even older.
Meighen is also tlie first westerner to achieve
the premiership. More than that he is the first
westerner to reach the leadership of a federal
party. Hitherto Quebec and the maritime prov
inces have furnished most of the party leaders
and for almost 30 years there has been no
premier west of the Ottawa river.
Meighen's selection is a sign of -the inevitable
atavism which must overtake; the party he leads
after its experiment in enriching the strain by
fresh alliances.. His party is to be the national
party hens its first leader whose origin in
war conditions' is being compared to that of the
republicau party which grew out of the civil
,War. But no one has accused Meighel of being
other than a conservative of the pre-war vintage
and his selection evidences that the party is re
verting to the old jype.
1 Meigheil has earned his great distinction by
hard work. He is a son of an Ontario farmer
and there first learned the lesson of industry.
At the university he was more of a "plugger"
than a sport and mixer. His course was mathe
matics and his chief recreation was a debating
society where he got his first exercise in the
analytical argument sometimes too finely
drawn, on -vvhich is based his chief reputation as
a parliamentary gladiator. As soon as he fin
ished his law course, he went west just at the
moment when the first pulsation of western de
velopment was beginning, hung out his shingle
in the small town of Portage La Prairie and
grew uj) with the country.
As a man of education and platform ability,
he was at once in the west a man of note. And
as a hard and fast conservative he was in the
west almost a phenomenon. It was no trouble
for him to get into public life".
His work in Parliament, which he reached
in 1908, was characterized by the same hard
work which had served him before. Meighen
could always be depended upon by the party,
leaders to present a respectable case even for a
flimsy cause. And he was always available.
When his party came into power in 1911,
Meighen was one of the first choices for prefer
ment, particularly as there were few conserva
tive M. P.'s from the west. In the cabinet he
still worked hard, outdistancing before Ions
many who may regard themselves as more bril
liant, Jnd it was evident from the moment Bor
den's etirement was first mooted that Meighen's
claims to the succession 'could not be lightly
set aside.
Government policy under Meighen will be
tinged wifli no radicalism. In the coalition gov
ernment he was the least affected of all minis
ters by the infusion of liberal blood. While it is
on record that on one occasion while in opposi
tion he moved that the tariff be taken off agricul
tural implements as a concession to his western
constituents, he is a thorough paced protection
ist and has on no occasion shown himself to be
seriously influenced by the radical opinions on
trade or other matters that the air is full of on
the prairies. He has never been closely identi
fied with big interests, but he is undoubtedly on
his record, and consistently followed, principles,
regarded as a safe man.
He. is far removed from the glad hand type
of politician. He is friendly in intercourse, but
often serious and thoughtful. His countenance
has an almost sardonic cast and he is in no rela
tion distinguished for a sense of humor.
Mrs. Meigen is more domesticated than the
majority of statesmen's wives. She has shunned
the capital's society on the ground that she
owe her time and energy to her three chil
dren, who are attending the public schools of
Ottawa. Previous to her marriage she was a
school teacher.
Occurring almost simultaneously with the se
lection of party leaders by the national conven
tion, the Selection of a national party leader and
prime minister in Canada furnishes a striking
contrast in methods.
The selection of a new prime minister is one
of the few acts" which, "under the British con
stitution, the king, or, in Canada, his repre
sentative, the governor general, is permitted to
perform. Theoretically, when Sir Robert Bor
den resigned, the duke of Devonshire could have
called on any person he liked to take the posi
tion. But, in practice, he had to be governed by
what was feasible. v
It would be useless, for example, to call on
some one who could not get a seat in Parlia
ment or could no form a cabinet, or who could
not by any chance command a majority in Par
liament before or after a general election.
What the duke of Devonshire undoubtedly
did in this case was to ask and accept the advice
of the retiring premier minister, just as he
would on other questions. And it was 'on Bor
den's recommendation that Meighen succeeds.
Constitutional sticklers insist, however, that on
this matter the kins: or his representative has
a free hand and recall that on Gladstone's final f
retirement. Queen Victoria, who never liked
him, didn't consult hip- in any way about his
successr. Where a premier is defeated at the
polls it is, of course, an empty formto consult
him about the succession.
And if for any reason the governor general
did not cH upon thje leader of the victorious
party he would quickly find himself in hot water.
But the rise of tne group system is going to
complicate matters in the future and it will not
be surprising if the real influence of the crovvn'd
prerogative materially increases.
The claim has-been made for the British sys
tem that it insures the selection of a higher type
of leader than under the system of the United
States, which, while apparently more democratic,
results so often in colorless compromises. But
that claim is controversial.

WHAT SWOLLEN FEET MEAN
A man notices the print of his
shoes on his feet and ankles when he
undresses at night.
We will say he ie about 60 years
old and is beginning to be on the
lookout for evidence that some of
his organs are wearing1 out,. He
presses his thumb into the swelling
and notices that there is a depres
sion which remains for evera.l min
utes after the pressure has beln
taken off. He is jcertajn that swell
lnjr of the ankles Is present.
He asks: -
"What does it mean? How serious
is it? What shall I do about it?"
These questions come into his
mind at onre. What can we do to
help him solve thera? .,
If the time is summer and the
weather is hot the condition may
not be significant. The human body
is a good deal of a thermometer; it
swells up in hot weather and shrinks
up in cold, as women with theie
tight fitting rings and tight fitting
clothes can tell ybu.
Cabot says that ricose veins are
by far the commonest cause for
swelling of the legs. If the enlarged
veins are in sight the question as to
the cause is settled at once. There
remains only the question of how
serious it is and what shall be done
about i. The rule is that swelling
due to varicose veins is jiot serious
and nothing need be done about it.
If varicose veins cause much pain,
aching, fatigue, swelling, or ulcers
they should be operated on or elastic
stockings should be worn, depending
on circumstances. .But sometimes
the obstruction lies higher up and
varicosities of the A'eins are harder
to demonstrate.
In an analysis of 13,223 cases of
swelling of the feet serious enough
to send the subjects to the hospital, t
the clinic or a private physician, Cab-,
ot found in 8,236 the cause was heart
d if ease. j
If, therefore, the swelling of the
feet is not due to same local cause
such as varicose verns or inflamma
tion of a vein the -chances are about
2 to 1 that heart disease is present. ;
Furthermore, heart disease ac
companied by swelling of the f eet i
has progressed as far as the stage
of broken compensation. In other
words, the heart muscle is not strong
enough to do the Work required of
it. If this is the cause of swelling1
of the feet the o.uicker the patient i
knows it the better for him. Further-!
more, the quicker he gets to doing
something about it the better for
him. As a rule. if he will be exam-,
ined, have his life mapped out for
him, and will obey orders he can
get back to health and live many
useful yars. There can be no ques
tion as to what line of conduct rep
resents good Judgment for him.
In Cabot's series, nephritis or
Bright's disease ranked second in
numbers, the swelling being caused
by kidney disease in 2,856, almost
one-fourth of the entire number.
Swelling of the feet is not an early
sign of Bright's disease. If, there
fore, a mai with swelling of the feet
has his urine examined and finds
Uright's disease the cause he can 1
be ure that his disease is fairly well
advanced and it behooves him to ,
tread the straight and narrow path, j
Anemia was responsible for the !
swelling in 92 S eases, varicose veins
in 487, phlebitis in 390, cirrhosis of
the liver in 309, alcoholic neuritis in
16, obstruction of the large vein of
the abdomen in 4. and beriberi in 2.
If the swelling is limited to one
foot and leg the cause is generally
phliebitis or lymphangitis. The gen
eral idea which we get is-jthat ex-
'Antinr th swelliflKS due to hot
weather, dropsy of the feet and an
kles is a sign signifying some organic
difficulty which calls for investiga
tion. fee Your Mind More.
M. K. writes: "t am a man !t
years old and have been working in
doors for the last twenty-four years.
1 have not been doing any work to
speak of in the last four years, ex
cept that 1 have to be on my feet all
day. and I go to bed anout ana
sleep till about 5 a. m. My sleep is
more or leas disturbed by dreams.
I walk about a mile morning and
evening- and that's all the exercise I
get. I feel sleepy all the time and
I can hardly keep awake. X could

which I do on Sunday. Please tell
me the cause and the remedy.".
REPLY.
It is just as well for a man 56
years of age to have his urine ex
amined in fact, to have a systemat
ic examination. If you will take up
some work that will keep your mind
busier, you will sleep better at night
and less well during the day.
Another Theory Explodes.
J. W. W. write.: "I should like
your opinion of the enclosed clipping.
The idea has been spread broadcast
that an unusually large number of
farm women become insane. This
clipping contradicts what has been
generally accepted as a fact."
REPLY.
The clipping quotes J. O. Rmkin
of the University of Nebraska aa
saying that statistics do not show
that farmers' wives are unusually
prone to become insane. The cities
send 86 per 100,000 population to
insane asylums as contrasted with
the rural population rate of 41.4
The rate for city men is 94.3; that
for city women, 77.6; that for coun
try men, 45.2; for. country women,
87.3. Of course Prof. Kankin's con
clusions are right.

Baffin Land.
An elaborately equipped Arctic expedition
will set sail from the United States in the sum
mer of 1921 bound for Baffin Land, one of
the vast areas of the far north yet unexplored.
The party, headed by Donald MacMillan,
Peary's lieutenant on the expedition that
reached the North Pole, plans to leave Boston
about July 1 of next yearaTid to reach the
first objective within less than a month.
The whole western shore of Baffin Land,
more than 1,000 miles in length, is but vaguely
defined in the charts. Eskimos have told won
derful tales of immense lakes and towering
mountains in the interior, but white men have
never visited them. The flora and fauna of
the district have never been studied, little is
known of tidal currents, and facts of geology,
mineralogy and meteorology await the coming
of scientific observers.
There is abundant evidence to prove that
the, region was several times visited before the
Pilgrims crossed the Atlantic, but no observa
tions of importance were taken. At least, no
records of such are extant. '
The winter following the arrival of Mac
Millan will be spent on the western shore in
latitude 69. The camp will probably be Fury
and Hecla strait, where the ships of Captain
Parry and Lyon, seekers of a northwestern
Passage, were blocked a century ago. That is
60 miles north of the Arctic circle and 700
miles south of Etah, on the shore of North
western Greenland, where MacMillan's Crock
erland expedition passed four winters.
During the winter attemots will be made
by the dog teams to explore the coast north-1
wara, ana in tne touowing summer the interior
of the island will be penetrated. The plans
lor the expedition call for an absence of two
years from this country. Salt Lake Tribune.

And all the round world always glad,
