Thla la the real reaaon for the great movement to give agri cultural pursuits the same encourage ment that Industrial pursuits are get ting. Agriculture U not declining It I* on the eve of a tremendous develop maul, because we are all finding out that the decline of agriculture means nothing more or leas than knocking out the foundation of nearly every other Industry In the world But one of the great causes for the exodus from the TieldH to the cities Ilea la the difficult lea of farmers In organizing for their own advancement and protection They are not firm compact organizations, standing or failles together In tlier demand for rights and privileges aa do the trade* unions, the railroad man, and the whole industrial construction The lonely ranchers and ‘.he mil lion* of farmers find li all hut linpoa Bible from their outlying stations to join together for mutual defense and advancement. This lack of cohesion and solidarity places them at the mer cy of all sorts of combination* among middle men and produre gambler* Thla is the riddle In the great scheme of development, which la engnglug able minds today. How to give to th# foundation of other Industries suffic ient resistance to bear up under tne pressure of these solidified organiza tions and combinations. Thla government Is preparing to guard the Interests of the farmer against thla pressure for the purpose Of lending free encouragement to the greatest and surest source of wealth the world know*.

Sscrstary Daniels' order banishing Intoxicants from naval veselt and navy yards hat ortitwl furious lnter atl Those who think the secretary It right think ao, furiously Those who think hr Is wrong, think so furious ly It la the old problem of the right of Individuals versus other rights. In this case. It is the right of the gov ernment to secure efficiency In con flict with the right of naval officers to guide and direct their own conduct. We don't pretend to defend (Secre tary Daniels against the charge that he la autocratic in this order We don't pretend that Ills order nhould not be expected to give offense to the naval officers. We readily see how such an order would he resented, hut at the same time, we believe that the navy and army would both be better for enforcing strict temporane* among the men and officers that compose these bodies. Admiral Braisted In his letter re commending the action of the secre of the navy said: "If there ie one profession more thau any other that calls tor a clear head and a steady hand. It Is the naval pro fession ' No doubt. Secretary Daniels is con vinced that the United States govern ment has the same right to demand "CLEAN-UP” WEEK TIME IS EXTENDED. To the llmiseholiler* of Augti*tn At the request of the Scavenger Department, the ten-day order la hereby extended until twelve o’clock noon Hnturdtiy, April llth, by width lime all garbage and trash must be placed upon the streets, or else sub ject yourself to a eummona to the ltreorder*s Court.

Health Officer- I efficiency that keen business men have to demand It In the conduct of their Interests. Msny of the employing corporation* demand Iota) abstinence from their employes, nowadays, because It la becoming generally recognized that el'-ady clear-headed work .tan not be counted upon from men who atlmulate I their nervous systems by alcoholic or id her drugs There is no affront In this demand by business organizations, ticca use It la a clear case of protection against In efficiency slid uncertain results. The man who buys work wants to buy the best work and he knows that the steadiest and most long running work la to be found only front men who abstain from alcoholic stimulation. Hul, when I'ncle Ham undertakes so protect himself by denying bis naval men Intoxicants, there le an Indignant cry that lie Is Insulting his naval uni ter* and undertaking lo act as a nur sery governess over them. What Is not understood Is that alco holic poison la being better compre hended now than It ever has been Many of the most earnest minds in the country are grappling with the prob lem of Its Insidious evils and Its ef fect upon mind, body and character is making Itself generally realized with cruel clearness. Secretary Daniels la acting In har mony with the tendency of the limes. General knowledge of the effect of al cohol Is bringing the question of how far personal liberty should he permit ted lu Infringe upon the rights and well lielng of others prominently be fore the public mind. The secretary Is acting for the coun try. He believes that the heavy re sponsibilities which rest upon the of ficers of the navy should not he Jeop ardized hy permitting Intoxicants to be consumed by them. It Is true that he la not concerning himself with the personal rights of the officers, hut If It Is a good rule In business to see that alcohol Is cut out, It ought to he a rood rule In the navy.

After the episode of the stolen con tract the boss seemed to think more of Bill thin ever, and one day sent for him and said: ' Bill, you have been with us some little time now ami you alwsv* seem to be the first one on the job every morning and the last to leave at night.

The railroad hopes ti*,mect the all oat mu w ith strike breaking crews within a few days. A trestle Iwo miles south of Ht. HI ('lair was burned last night.

Train No. 2. due to leave St. I'lulr at 7 o'clock, was unable to run. Instead the train was operated from Waynesboro. Train Derailed. This Is the only trouble the railroad has experienced since the derailment of train No. 3at Waynesboro last night. This train left Savannah at 3 o'clock and ran into an open switch as It entered Waynesboro. It is be lieved hy the railroad officials that the switch was opened by aoine of the strlko sympathizers. The company la using the available men on the trains as conductors. It Is therefore hampered In repairing th# du/uage which has tieen dune to the property. It was stated this morning that the locomotive of train No 3 was still derailed. Tin- officials are In hopes of having this trouble remedied during the day.

OF PICKPOCKETS Going to Have Photos, Finger Prints and History of All on Record in U. S. New York,—Police of all the larg ■ cities In the country were asked today lu help rid New York of pickpockets. The local authorities seek photo graphs, finger prints and histories of all pickpockets on record in the Unit ed States. The crusade was launched here on account of the systematic way In which the light fingered fraternity of late have escaped punishment. Police magistrates and representatives of the police department today decided that the best way to stop this was to per fect their rogue's gallery records and take advantage of a decision of the court of appeals which makes it legal to use the sworn testimony of a com plainant even though the complainant fails to appear in court This would frustrate the favorite scheme of pick pockets under arrest who send friends to buy off complainants or Intimidate them.
