The world Is on the vergo of a cotton famine? and the high prices that are being asked for the manufactured product are in full keeping, with the entire situation except the present price of the raw material. Raw cotton is not now bringing anything like its real value, owing to discriminatory manipulation; but the probability Is that at least two or three million bales of the cotton now in the hands of the growers will bring more than 50 cents a pound. ( Of course we want everybody to read The Enquirer, whether as subscribers or borrowers. It seems to us, however, that at tho prico every family can easily j.ffcrd to have its own paper, and because there is so much of It, tho b.orrower imposes on tho good nature and convenience oi the lender more "than he is warranted in doing. It necessarily takes tl subscriber a longer time to get through with his paper, and, to have to borrow it back to finish reading it himself seems rather hard, to say the least of it. This point was emphasized to one of tho publishers over at the county fair the other day. A ,?Y9JqpttjB^bq^i^er_cajne up sr?H&gly with'the declaration: "Since you nave made The Enquirer so much bigger, I do not like ;it as well as before." Just a little surprised, the publisher asked, "Why?" "Well, you see there is so much of it that I can hardly get it all read before my neighbors nre after it," the subscriber said. \ At last the political wire pullers representing the private inner circles that have so long dominated American finance, are about to dowji John Skel-> ton Williams, the best and ablest comptroller of the currency the country has ever known. When Mr. Williams took the office of comptroller it was mainly for the purpose of try ing 10 DreaK up u mig ui wtiuuo grafters who were manipulating government finance in such a way as to insure special privileges and emolument to those on the inside. For years and years, The Riggs National bank of Washington had been the great central station through which the manipulators pulled off their schemes?schemes that enabled them to reap where they had not sown, and levy tribute on operations with the planning and execution of which they had.had nothing to do. It was from the Riggs bank that congress was maniuplated when there was need for the manipulation of congress, and it was from the Riggs hank that the treasury department got instructions v lid L limuu Dinvuill IIIV IVI HIU grafted on the inside. Early in his career Mr. Williams went after the Riggs bank and showed up the deviousness of its doings in a way that left hut little room for doubt that nil lie charged was true. Rut before Mr. Williams could complete his work the political majority In the senate was changed and now Mr. Williams is to be choked off with the result probably that the Itiggs bank will soon be able to resumte its old tricks in the same old way. The enterprise of the publishers of the Literary Digest in reproducing lllfcil I11UM UUt't'U> from typewritten copy by mear.3 of the photographic proces3, rather than submit to the demands of the striking printers, is more or less admirable, but when it comes to the suggestion that this departure probably means a revolution in the printing business we balk. Among the newspaper comments we have read on the subject, most of them, reproduced in advertise' monts of the Digest, wc have soen but i few that seem to indicate that the writers have any practical conception of what they arc talking about. (5cni orally speaking, we gather,that most of these comments were intended for psychological effect on the linotype operators; but even from that standpoint they are wasted. The average linotype operator knows more about the whole printing business in a minute than the average editorial writer i knows in a month of Sundays, and that : nil of them are amused at most of the ; things that are being said, wqj are quite sure. Injthe first place, the pho- , tographlng of the typewritten copy, does not eliminate either the subsequent stereotyping or printing, because . after the photographic plates have been made the balance of the process Is the same as in the case of linotype slugs. But that is not all. The Literary Digest will never see the day when it can find men and women to produce such copy ' as Is required for photographing at anything jlike the cost that the samw amettmb t>f matter can prepared in *the linotype* way.

In a way "thd* experiment is interesting, especially as a diversion; but there is nothing, of permanency^ about the innovation, and the Digest may as well make up its mind to that In one respect, however, we arc lnclinod to think that the Digost Is very much Improved. It has evidently been impossible to get among > the typists proficient operators who would , stand for ^hat fool phonetic spelling fad for which tho Digest has assumed ' to serve as an expbncnt, and in that1 circumstance there is some comfort. saving. ' No nhatter how little you tnake, if you save some of it, you ano getting ahead. , I No natter how much you ipake, if you waste it, you are going backward. .HiEveryf man who has ever got anywhere worth while in an honorabfe way, and there is no other way to get anywhere worth while, hks found that the saving of his first hundred dollars was more difficult than the saving of his next'nine hundred. Any man who thinks that the mete accumulation of money Is the chief end of life, or even an honorable worth-while occupation, is a fool; the same kind of a fool as the man who wastes all he can get as fast as he ran aret his hands on it 'The correct rule with regard to money Is to provide for reasonable needs, and to spend the surplus in a ' way in which you will "Btill have it.

The differences between employer and employes which have been in existence since the beginning of time have not been settled and they will not be settled during this generation. The bnly possible basis of settlement satisfactory to both Sides is justice and even that will not be satis?i ?*---? ? haanuao thorn iaciory iu cv^ijruuuj i^vaw ^ are people on both sides who don't ' want justice.and there are people on both sides who do nut want to be satisfied. ' All men of real intelligence on both sides know that things never have been right, and they are not right now; also that .they will not be right for a long time to come. There are very few reasonably wel\' informed people who are 'especially surprised at the present situation, because they know that the always pre, sent dissatisfaction and unrest ever becomes more acute everywhere following the conditions of t^jic past five years. People who feel themselves permanently established in plenty, ease and authority naturally favor tno status quo, and people who aspire to plenty, ease and authority just as naturally seek and work for readjustment. > As the result of the mighty over- ( ' turn growing out of the great war, perceptibly and imperceptibly there is going on -a worldwide readjustment i that is making substitutions in the seats of the mighty, and the efforts of those that have those seats to hold them, and those that have not got them to secure them, is what is making the present widespread strife. At bottom it looks like a vain, selfish struggle, or rather a struggle of selfishness; hut there Is very little reason to protest against it because it has always been slon. it has hud a lot to do and York is at the foot of the list. But an' tli how, the auditor's office has been sub- cl jected to much inconvenience, and the w books arc In a shape that means a lo C of extra work. In the case of mercantile returns still in the hands ol y the commission, the auditor has beer jr entering in pencil the figures made by b, the merchants, with the idea of a( changing these figures to ink as soon ^ as possible after the tax commission reports its conclusions. In the ab- V; scnce of final, figures from the com- tj mission, the auditor will have tc go g( on as he has things now. If later the c, ebrtlfnlsSioh raises (the returns before y receipts are1 issued, the excess will hare to go-on'as additional and if the returns are lowered, the taxpayer will ~ have to-get back his overpayment by * means of reflate! fronr?the comptroller general, ^ nAosplteflious red-tape pro- * cess.

The work of putting on returns and writing receipts is ?. quite a, large undertaking at best, 11 and when It has to be done in a great p rush, as under the present circum- * stances, it involves no small amount of additional labor and concern. * ' ft SUBPOENAS FOR THESE x o Thirty York county business people * have been summoned to appear before\he state tax commission in Co- b lumbla today to testify as to y the amount of goods, wares, merchandise, etc., on hand, liabilities and assets.'
