It is a generous thought; we are sure our government will respond to such a call, if it does not first inaugurate a plan for peace, but, really, what Lord Bryce wants is as yet impossible, for no serum has been found that can kill the fierce germ of war in the hearts of men; no preventa ,, tive that can meet it and smother it in its incep - , tion. ' As medical scientists hope eventually to sub due or prevent all diseases, so good men read their bibles and believe that the time will come when the nations will learn war no more. But the nations are not yet prepared for that time the wild beast in the souls of men is still in its full strength. It has been found that .many of the most viru lent diseases have their germs originate and nursed to full strength by filth. It is in the filth of ignorance, superstition, hatred, envy, malice and the lust of power and avarcie, that the germs of war are hatched and jft brought to full growth in the hearts of nations. At this stage of the world, nations should strive to keep their hearts free from that filth that they may give no offense. At the same time they should see that their shores and their people are . provided with the best known preventatives to keep the germs of war away and combat them in case they effect a landing. Such A Company SINCE the war of the rebellion the Democratic candidates for president, no matter who they have been or what principles they have sto'od for have carried the votes of the people of about a dozen states in their pockets from the day of their nomination. And the moving spring that has dominated their minds and acts, has not been their desire J to see the country advance, but their hate of the I party in opposition and that party which bears I the same name that did the party that foiled their fathers' efforts to destroy the great republic and found a slave empire; though not one in ten of their people ever owned or expected to own a slave. It matters not what a Democratic platform may contain, no matter what palpable mistakes a Democratic administration may make, they swallow the platform and declare that it is sweet to the taste, and they vote to have the party succeed Itself, no matter how manifest are its errors, or what further misfortunes its continu ance in power presages. That the Democratic party is alive today is due to them. And the queer feature is it has not been in devotion to principles but through hate of the party they hold it as a duty to fight. And, con sciously or unconsciously, the men they send to congress, are governed by the same motives. For five years prior to the election of Mr. Wilson the ,vj need of a revision of the tariff was manifest but y every suggested revision was fought and beaten by these men. Their claim now of inaugurating the movement for the revision is a joke, the praise they now openly claim credit for it reads as it would look were a company of comedians to claim credit for putting over the most solemn tragedy of the season. The thing to do is to continue to beat the party every time it raises its crest, and to con tinue to build little red school houses for the enlightenment of their children, until they sub due their hates enough to be willing to listen to reason. ,yj "Long is the way that leadeth out of hell up " to the light." The Magenta Rose NOT many of our young ladies know how a cer tain rose came to be named "The Magenta?" The picture of the faded Eugenie at ninety i years of age published today is a reminder. When the French army returned from the Austrian war, a court reception was given the officers at the Tullleries. The guests included Marshal McMa han, who had fought the battle of Magenta to final victory and won the title of Duke of Magenta. The Empress Eugenie, then in the very flower of her beauty, approached the anarshal and as she pinned a rose on the lapel of his coat said: "Great soldier of France, permit me! This is henceforth the Magenta rose." Any soldier of France would brave death on the hope of winning such a rose. That Democratic Economy IN persuance of the Democratic party's pledges of strictest economy in the expenditure of pub-' lie money, the party in congress rushed through a bill appropriating many millions for a new ar mor plate manufacturing plant at Binghamton, Alabama. That was done, too, in the face of the offer of the president of the New Bethlehem Armor Plate works, to place his works under the special su pervision of a board appointed by the govern ment and to accept for work the price named by that board. The only conclusion that can be reached is " that out of that appropriation enough money could be used for campaign purposes to insure effective work for the campaign in places where it was believed the best results could be obtained. No Lobbying, Eh? WHEN the democracy last came into control of the executive and legislative branches of the government, announcement accompanied by a great flourish of officials trumjpets was made that lobbying in and about congress must cease. Wo believe that some men accused of trying to se cure legislation were driven out of Washington. And yet by some mysterious means the ar rangement was made by which one special de mand of the Big Four unions for an eight-hour day was, without investigation, to be driven through congress, and all other demands were to bo waived for the present. How was it done? And what was the hurry to justify legislation to cost the people who patronize railroads in the United States $60,000,000 per annum? And who made this deal and what was the consideration for the unparalleled act? The Captain And His Craft THAT gallant German submarine cruiser, "U 53," that, crossed the North sea and the At lantic from Wilhelmshaven in seventeen days to Newport, R. I., braving the storms and hostile ships and escaping the notice of the thirty-seven warships guarding the entrance of the port, should be a notice to our naval authorities that a sword fish is much better fixed for fighting than a whale, and that a dreagnaught costs more than a fleet of submarines, and when destroyed carries more men down to death than would twenty smaller craft. That Captain Hans Rose is very much of a man. He sails into port, hands a letter to a reporter, asks him to kindly mail it to the Ger man ambassador, declines food and fuel, or oven a demijohn of water says he has plenty for thirty days, that he called merely to mail a letter; makes a flying visit to a couple of officials, then swings his ship around and sails away at eighteen knots, till he reaches the three-mile limit then ducks. The three most conspicuous things he reveals are his two deck guns, his torpedo tubes and tor pedoes on his ship, and the Iron Cross on his breast. The most significant words he spoke were, when some one wanted to bo remembered to Republican Ticket I National m President jH CHARLES EVANS HUGHES "Vice-President jH CHARLES WARREN FAIRBANKS jH Presidential Electors IH ASA R.
