Raise Provisional.
The southern newspapers are
&oiu the farmers and all the peo
ple of this section eood i service
when they urge the planting of
larger food crops and the; raising
ot more hose. The war came up
on us when it was not too late to
provid at least partially,! against
the . ;:!amity of short tood sup
plies in the south this year.
Already the prices ot provisions
have anvanced and they I will go
higher as the war advances. It
passes comprehension that the
great majority of the farmers . of
the south have e;one on' year after
year reiving upon the west for
their meat and bread when they
could hare raised it at home for
lass than its ordinary cost Now
that like price of corn, the price
of wheat, the price of meat, the
pric of everything to eat, is sure
to go up and may remain unusu--ally
high for a year or lODger, it
would" be the height of tolly to de
pend upon the western supply in-
stead of our own farms. I

It is to be hoped that Spain
trill learn some lessons in civil
failure from the United States.
The President's liberal f methods
in dealing with her commerce on
the seas and his avowed purpose
to have no privateering, the ad
miral's paroling of an pfiicer to
gratify his great desire to see his
family and the: kind reception of
prison era should bring a smile on
many a Spanish cheek and show
them the heights of civilizatidh to
which they have not attained.
Too Much Of the Commercial.
Sara the Philadelphia Record :
J ustice Patterson, of New York,
in a speech before the Law Club
ot that city recently, deplored the
fact that the law had become so
largely, a trade instead of a pro
fession ; and on the following day
Dr; Edward Everett Hale, in an
address betore an educational
body in the same city on "Mor
ality in the Public Schools," made
the declaration : 'There is daDger
of the managers of a great ma
chine taking more pride in the
machine and its workings than in
. li "i . i j mi "
me results it turns out. xnis is
the danger in our public schools."
These words will, of course, be
resented as the views of pessi
mists ; yet they come from men
qaaHfiec to speak as public teach-
-6 coming simultanebusly
they gain an emphasis Which must
command attention. We are ac
customed to flatter ourselyes with
the idea that our development
along material lines necessarily
involves a corresponding develop
ment along intellectual and moral
lines. However that may be, the
fact can no longer be denied that
the commercial instinct is begin-
ning to dominate almost every ac
tion of our people.

A Newton lady whose son left
home yesterday to enlist in the
army was so overcome with grief
that she swooned away at the de
pot. The mother followed her son
to the train and, although he hid in
the car, she found him and pleaded
with him to stay at home. He was
obdurate, however, and the mother's
words fell on deaf ears. She had to
leave the train as it was pulling out
and fainted away on the platform.
