THE GREATEST BARGAIN.
In a time when prices are soaring out of reach, it is fit
ting, nay, even a pleasure, to call attention to the fact that
April 30 xn*rks the ll?th anniversary of the day the United
States bought a vast empire from France for only $15,000,000.
This comprises what is now the states of Louisiana, Missouri,
Arkansas, lowa, Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Nebras
ka, Oklahoma and the largest parts of Kansas, Colorado, Wy
oming and Montana.
The greatest bargain in history was called the Louisiana
Purchase and was negotiated in the administration of Presi
dent Jefferson and in the reign of the first Napoleon.
' The purchase more than doubled the area of the United
Stater, but, nevertheless, there were a considerable number
of Americans who suspected Napoleon of profiteering and de
nounced Jefferson as an easy mark. In fact, there was insti
tuted among the New England states a definite movement of
secession in protest against the purchase. <
Jefferson himself was not without misgivings, for sls,
000,000 was a large amount of money in those days and the
territory included in the purchase was then a vast wilderness
with a population of but 40,000. The land had been ceded by
Spain to Napoleon who planned to erect a great colonial em
pire, but he found himself obliged to sell out when pressed
for r°ady money to carry on his wars against England and
her allies.
Some historians say that, besides the Revolution and the
Civil War, the Louisiana Purchase is the greatest Tact in
American history, slut there can be no doubt that it is tne
most profitable investment ever made by any nation, for the
taxable wealth of the territory included in the purchase now
is about 600 times the $15,000,000 the United States paid for
the land.
AUTO JOYS.
Self-preservation is the most powerful instinct, one is
told. But it is trailed closely by the impulse to acquire an
automobile.
An American automobile manufacturer recently re
ceived a request for prices, from the interior of China.
He was asked to name his price for a car finely finished
and luxuriously upholstered, complete except motor. No
motor was desired.
It developed that the oriental who wished this car
lived where gasoline was costly, but coolie labor was cheap.
Besides, he had no wish to go fast. He proposed to sit
in his car and steer it leisurely, while coolies pushed it from
behind.
Report of a yet more peculiar taste in automobiles is
brought back by a government scientist lately returned from
Asia Minor.
A native potente had satisfied his longing to possess a
car. He would not trust himself in it. No other was per
mitted to run his toy. But he got a deal of pleasure out of
it, aside from the simple joy of ownership.
He had rigged the electric equipment for a purpose
which best suited his fancy. He would command an un
wary subject to place a finger on a certain spot, and then
would give the subject a shock that knocked him end for
end.
Verily, great satisfaction can be obtained from a motor
car without speeding it.

The same thing occurred when the

that the very heavy vote polled In

complexion of the stntc from an ag

“Growers who produce annually

DAVID MAKES FRIENDS WITH
MAMMA AND DADDY ECHIDNA
ONE day while David was on a visit
to his aunt, who lived in Ntw
South Walts, hs was walking
down by the stream whsn he spied a
Queer-looking ereaturedozlngon the sand.
It wore a little overcoat. o<f quills like
David had seen the sea-urchins wearing
back home. Its funny little head was
vsry small and pointed and Its eyes were
almost hidden under the quills. Its head
ran out into a slender bill, for the nose
end mouth. Its legs were short and
strong The feet were furnished with
very powerful claws fitted for digging
The hind feot had spurs on them. Just
like David's rooster back home, but Its
tail van very short and so hidden t>y the
spinas that David could hardly tell he
had a tail at ell.
David’s foot struck s twig, and the
strange creature rolled itself up Into a
prickly ball After waiting a few sec
onds for the attack, which It fully ex
pected. and hearing everything quiet, the
queer creature finally uncurled and
looked at David In surprise.
“Then you didn’t intend to catch me?**
he squeaked.
*T should sav not!** replied David,
laughing to think of a strange little
creature talking to him “Certainly not,
after I saw what an armor you wear.
Hilt, I would like to know what your
name la"
“Oh. yes. certainly!** exclaimed the
funny creature. Eddy Echidna, at your
service. If you come an a friend Come
on. little man. and let’s have a chat. I
know by your face that you’re a friend
of the woodfolk"
“Indeed, I am.’* laughed David. “I
never harm them, and I try not to fright
en them. You won’t bite me. will you?”
“Bltel** exclaimed Eddy Echidna, and
he laughed so loudly that Mrs. Echidna
came out from their burrow In the soft
sands to see what the commotion was
about. Come on. wife, this chap wants
to know if wo bite. Oh, that’s some Joksl
Why. we couldn’t If we wanted to—we
haven’t a tooth In our heads We de
pend on our tongue to catch our food—
which. Ist me say. before going any far

and Insects stick, and my tongue and

that crush the inscot* an I can swallow

possibly bit a you."
"Funny!" exclaimed David. *Tva been
through these wood* a good many tlmaa
and only vesterday ! was right down
here; but 1 didn't see you folks."
"Because we re seldom <>ut In the day
time." laughed Mrs Echidna, hobbling
up bsside her husband "Fact is. I didn't
know- that Kddy was out of bed yet. We

winking at David "She isn't content

No, she'd rather wait until they’ve gone

"I certainly do. and so d» you!"

' we should dislike very much to se* Uncle
Sam place a chip on his shoulder and
swagger forth in search of conquests.'*
I But many, who consider the conscript
ed youth In danger of exposure to the
tferm of ITussianlsm. look upon the col
unteer as safe, sane and wholly desir
able.
Quoting Brigadier General John Sher
burne's statement that preparedness* is
J.ke insurance and over-preparedness like
over-insurance—leading to waste and ar
son—the DEH MOINES REGISTER (Ind.
Kep.) concurs with this viewpoint and
explains “that this talk was not the talk
of a pacifist for General Sherburne
lought in France.” but the testimony of
a man who “hay kept his head clear and
has never :ost sight of the ideals and
) urposes of democracy.’*
“The Civil War.” the BUFFALO
TIMES (Item.) reminds us "on the
Northern side was fought and won most
ly by volunteers,” and It believes that
there is a growing relaxation on the
part of young men that some experience
in training camps is a valuable element
in education ’*
With Jehu enthusiasm but still with
faith in the young men of the country
the CHARLESTON NEWS AND COUR
IER (Dem.) urges that instead of con
demning voluntary training as a “worth
.etJH makeshift, the liberal minded sup
porters of compulsory training should
recognize the possibilities of the scheme
and do what they can to make the most
of it." relying on the fact that “a more
pronounced military spirit and a wider
conception of the obligation of the citi
zen to fit himself for military service
now exist in America. ** ,
The SALT LAKE DESERET NEWS
(Ind.) considers that the measure does
not mean the “make or break” of the
country's future.
On the one hand It points out that
while the “stigma of militarism’’ will be
attached to it by many, opposition by
congress Is not accurately tfidicative of
opinion in Washington, but “the com
promise.’ it says, “comes probably as
near to satisfying both sides V H anything'
that could Just now be devised.”
Voice of the Press
INTERNATIONAL IGNORANCE.
It is said to he unbelievable that the
British and French people, to say nothing
of the British and French premiers fram
ing the League of Nations, could have
been ignorant of the constitutional limits
of Mr. Wilson's authority at the peace
table. But Is this knowledge so univer
sal? Are not our own people not merely
Ignorant but indifferent about the meth
ods of government of our European
neighbors?
In a courteous and friendly editorial
welcome to Sir Auckland Geddes, the
new British ambassador to the United
States, the New York American says:
“But much oftener men are raised to
the peerage, as both the Oeddeses have
been, because they are men of great tal
ent and sagacity.''
They arc probably men of great talent
and sagacity, particularly Sir Eric Ged
des. But they have not been raised to
the peerage. It is true the same author
ity. in publishing her portrait, calls the
wife of any knight or baronet a “peer
ess." But this does not make her one,
any more than the American wife of a
viceroy of India was a ''vicereine.” al
though the Hearst newspaper generally
Invented that rank for her.
It would do no harm for Americans who
discuss British constitutional distinc
tions. like the peerage, to satisfy them
selves eb to what a peer is, and why the
king is “primus inter pares" and why.
consequently, the peers in Westminster
Abbey put on their coronets when he is
crowned. British titles of honor include
the wife, but titles of office do not. The
wife of the viceroy of India or Ireland has
no political or official standing, and not
ns much power socially as the wife of the
president of the United States. An ob
vious personality is here to be avoided.
How many Americans could have writ
ten Earl Grey's admirable letter to the
London Times defining the Joint powers
un*l responsibilities of the United States
senate? Naturalized Americans are oblig
ed «to have familiarized themselves with
the Con&titUtion. How many native-born
Americans have read It. or read any book
on it. like Bryce’s “American Common
wealth?”
How many Americans, able to write a
grammatical and Interesting letter, write
to this and other newspapers advocating
export taxes, and how many could point
out the constitutional disability? How
many men not lawyers could describe off
hand. the other method of amending the
Constitution, or how many lawyers?
There are two ways You know how the
Eighteenth Amendment was passed.
What was the other way In which the
Constitution could have been amended?
One of our greatest writers discussed
‘ h certain condescension in foreigners ”
Are we not suffering a little from a cer
tain superiority in Americans? No doubt
the readers of this paper are familiar
with the constitutional distinctions here
suggested. But how many of the claimed
