Among the many Interesting ob

I cannot recommend to your notice
measures for the fulfilment of our
duties to the rest of tho world without
again pressing upon you the neccssity
d( placing ourselves la a condition of
complete defence and of e.Mictlns from
them the fulfilment of their duties
toward us. The United States ought
not to Indulge a persuasion that, con
trary to the order of human events,
they will forever keep at a distance
those painful appeals to arms with
Ahlch tho history of every other na
tion abounds. There Is a rank due to
the United .States among nations which
will be withheld. If not absolutely lost,
ty the reputation of weakness. If we
desire to avoid Insult, we must be able
to repel It, If we desire to secure
peace, one of the most powerful In
struments of our rising prosperity, It
must be known that we are at all
times ready for war. Nor can
nuch arrangements, with such objects,
be exposed to tho 'ensure or Jealousy
of the warmest friends of republican
government December 3, 1 71
The devising and establishing of a
well regulated militia would be a gen
uine source of legislative honor and a
perfect title to public gratitude. No

To an active external commerce the
protection of a naval force Is Indis
pensable. This Is man feat with re
Bard to wars In which a State Is Itself
a party. But besides thlu, it Is in uur
own experience that the most sincere
neutrality h not a suttlcient uuard

President Wilton's Disaster.
I'rcnldent Wilwis's progrummo of
prepnretlncin, forniully submitted to
the Congress on December 7, 1015,
linn been wrecked. Ilia ncheme of
nrmy expansion, never nccepted by
Ills "collcugues In Congress," has been
nlmndoned by him. That abandon
ment cost him his Secretary of Wur.
Ills naval sugsostlons hao been dis
regarded. Unfortunately, the fact
has not moved his Secretary of Um
Navy to efface himself from ofllclul
life. The President's financial pro
posals have been torn up and cast
aside. Never nan an Executive plead
ing with it Legislature of his own
party been more contemptuously re
buffed, nnd Mr. Wilms must bo deaf
to the nation's voice, blind to the na
tion's acts. If he cherishes the opinion
that the country now expects from
him nnd hfs pari Nans a satisfactory
and udetiunte solution of the prob
lems of national defence.
In nothing that has occurred since
lie became President lias Mr. Wilson
displayed his essential and uncon
querable weakness us u public ad
ministrator more fully than In hW
treatment of preparedness, in noth
ing else the Democratic party lias un
dertaken since jiower was conferred
tiHn It In llM'J have Its leaders shown
more tlNcournglngly the Incompetence
that Justllies the sneers of their op
Ionents. Where directness, disinter
estedness nnd tlrmness were needed,
there has been evasion, selllshness

could not rise above parochial con
siderations. At a lime when unity
In action and harmony In counsel

the United States, the Deniocrnts In
Congress could not submerge their
personal differences or subordinate
their personal prejudices.
When Mr, Wit son became an ofllce
holder he assumed the leadership of
his party. He did It In New Jersey,
he extended the range of his activi
ties when he went to Washington. And
his leadership hns produced a situa
tion In which the legislators on whom
he must depend for success openly
ill-regard his carefully matured poli
cies nnd oppoe his most solemnly
advocated measures. Their disrespect
for his sincerity mid lack of confi
dence In his Judgment nre measured
by their disloyalty to his proposals.
If they believed In him they would
give their adherence to those projects
that receive hi unquulllied and seri
ous support ; dlbellnving, they treat
his advocacy with contempt, and they
-erve notice on him thnt his Indorse
ment l without weight.
Under these eircuni-tiinoos Ameri
cans uware of the necessities of their
country cannot and do not expect
from Mr. Wilson nnd the Democrats
the system of national defence that
every Intelligent man knows Is en
joined by the International require
ments of to-dny. They see n party
demoralized, disorganized, without co
herence or common purpose; a leader
ship tlouted; the administration of
l.v.Mi:i.s preserved while Oaiuumin
departs; ami they know that the first
step toward the suttlcient armament
of the United States will not he taken
until the first Tuesday after the first
Monday In November, when, the rule
of disorder will be ended by the
expulsion of the Incompetents from
places of authority.
Mo me Occult Causes of Disease.
Slowly but surely enlightenment of
the public upon the causes of disease
has removed superstitious Ideas upon
the subject, so that to-day the con
viction has been established that sick
ness is not due to an net of Provi
dence hut to Ignorance, Indolence or
neglect, nets of man. Causes hitherto
neeiilt are rapidly diminished by their
removal through simple but effective
means
As ui) Illustration may be cited a
recent investigation by the Depart
I incut of Health of tho probable. In
fectlon of toy whistles by the ped
lers who sell them after demonstrat
ing their notes with their own lips.
.f twelve whistles purchased from
pushcarts, tlvu having metal nm!
seven wooden tuoutlipleces, ninety
nine bacteria colonies developed from
the wooden whistles and forty-live
from the metal ones. A large variety
of micro-organisms was found, many
of which were tespjil umhi mice to
iletertnlno their virulence. Eight ut
the nine mice died, five within twenty
four hours, two within tho next twenty-four
hours and one four days after
Inoculation. The lesson Is obvious.
Toy whistles siioul.l be at least
boiled beioro . niiiiren ure permitted
to use (hem. The mucous membrane
of the niotilh Is one of the parts of
the body most susceptible to Infection.
There can be no doubt that many ob
scure cases of diphtheria and other
Infectious throat and mouth diseases
httve b-on conveyed by this appar
ently Innocent musical Instrument.
N'nt alone may the pedler himself
be thu direct caus. of transmission,
hut the exposure of his wares to the
Impure dust laden air of his dwelling
may convey Infectious dlfcabes pre-
vnlllng In the family to children for
whom these toys have been bought.
Another probable cause of disease
has been discovered In tho research
laboratory of the department In the
cigar cutter. It Is a common practice,
of smokers to moisten the tip of n
tignr before cutting It off. That In
fection may he transmitted In this
way was demonstrated by the pres.
ence of diphtheria bacilli on it cigar
cutter which had been used dip a
cigar previously held between the lips
of a person ill with diphtheria.
Other bacteria being also ohtalned
from these. Instruments, the depart
ment suggests tluit moistening of ci
gars before being cut be dispensed
with. Tobacconists will be cautioned
not to use any type of cutter In which
the knife blnde Is pressed Into n coni
cal socket The cutter In which the
blnde alone comes In contnet with the
cigar Is to be recommended ns less
dangerous.
While nosophobia or fear of dis
ease, should he (llscournced nnd the
public should not bo needlessly
alarmed by apprehension that dis
ease producing bacteria lurk In many
unsuspected places, It may Inure to
Its benefit to point out all known
sources of disease.

Miners, Operators and the Public.

miners and tho operators, ure repre

by which the bills must ultimately be
paid, does not participate In the pro
ceedings. Yet with the public rests
the determination of tho controversy

Already thu price of nnthrnctte In

GERMAN NERVES.
Are the Kaiser's Troops Peculiarly
Hasreptlble to "Krleghjtrle"T
In tho latest German newspaperM
and medical 'journals there arc clr
cuiruUantl.il statements about Ger
many' tiervouB strain in tho wnr. Ap
parentlV tho increase ot hysteria and
Insanity has been far greater than
most pcoptu Imagine, To llhtstrato
this let us quote frolu a lino article In
tho Deutsche Mrdltlnterho Worieu
ichtift on Juuuary 2C. It is by Dr.
Meyer, a surgeon back from the
front, and describes tho nerve shatter
ing effecus of hlgli explosives on tho
typical German recruit.
"We must allow," says this medical
authority, "that the new offensive In
tho west and the poor quality of our
recruits have brought with them an
mcreaso of hysteria." It appears from
other communications that It 1ms been
necessary to havo special wards In
hospitals for the growing class of de
mented eioldtors und nervous, break
downs. Evidently this subject presses
more and more upon tho public mind
of Germany as' tho war wears on.
Everywhere tho press and tho medi
cal authorities, though carefully cen
sored, go surprisingly far In laying
bare tho less theatrical side of war.
Whether this frankness Is intentional
or a sign of the deep uneasiness of the
people concerning tho future of the
race Is not clear. However, one thing
Is clear; these reports of tho effect
of life In the trenches and on the fir
ing line are a note of the agony of the
nation. How eUe can thu following
passage from an article by lYofessor
Gaupp be Interpreted? It Is well worth
quoting for tho instruction of our
American public, for we are said to bo
a nervous people.
"There uro plenty of men," writes
the German expert, "men othenviso
energetic and normal, whoso nervous;
systems are not equal to the strain
nnd hardship of modern vvarfnrc The
temper of their souls Is not proof
against the danger, cruelty mid ter
ror." The professor writes as one who
knows war. lie lias coined u word,
"granatkontuslonen." to ilescrlb the
effect of an exploding shell. Without
causing a single, external wound It
produces ti shock, a concussion of the
brain and spine, which often leaves
men unconscious for hours and even
days. When they uro awakened they
aro often deaf and dumb and de
mented, or they are delirious and rave
over their experiences This Is the
"kriegshysterie" or wnr hysteria. Tho
description Is a fair nummary of nine- j
tenths of tho extracts from German
writers. '
It Is curious to note that English ;
and Drench eyewitneiseje write with
more restnt nt. They, too, dfserlbc the
nervous shook, the hysteria nnd deaf
mutWm in soldiers from the fighting
line. They write tint tho great Ger
man shells scoop out craters, thnt :
they send up suffocating clouds of j
greenNh smoke, and that they stain j
everything near a ghastly yellow. Hut
they will not admit that these shells I
nre such dreadful visitors after nil. I
It Is well known that an Immense
amount of metal in needed to kill a
single man well Intrenched In a strong
position. Still thi nrvous strain Is
horrible, nnd. ns Professor f!atitppsas.
only the greatest physical and moral
hardihood, reenforced by thorough
discipline, can prevail against It. The
effect on an Im.iclna'lw youth who
had never been seasoned or who lnd
not the harilneBs of nerves of Inher
ited pluck. Is terrifying and demora
lizing. More serious even are the effects on
tho older man of the reserve, who hiu
lost bis original fitness In the oom
lorts of prosperous civil life, who
often takes to tho trenches tho cares
of busline neglected Htid of a wife
and children .it home, litre the true
bitterness of iIm'!i L- f.ienl when the
mobilization com-. and the hu.sh.ind Is
rudely snatched from bis lltlln pri
vate life.
We err in thinking Germans more
phlegmatic than ours Ives. The won
der Is that any discipline or training
can rob these war omditions 'f their
horror. Though It ,s the habit of Ger
mans to look tisn military service ns
a normal state of things, tho ordinary
German civilian who Is called to the
colors leavii.g comfort and good liv
ing suddenlv, may lo-e lvn reason or
hL nerve as quickly as any other man.
The German affords a singular con
tr.ttt to the Frenchman or English
man 1n many wayrt, but he seems on
the evidence of Ills, medical writers tolte
more temperamental than the other
two races, nnd his disciplined soul has
iv strong dash of tho rinotlonal. Very
remarkable, too, and most pathetic, Ls
the picture of the hapless German
civilian, torn from his moorings In
a suburb of Rerlln or Munich und
sent to tho front. These men for the
most part become gisd soldiers, but
given the occasion, like the explosion
of a great shell or an offensive by the
enemy, and a vein of weakii.s.- ap
pears which sometimes turns to hys
teria. The results tire painful to the
believer 1n German stability, and the
writers of the press, reports do not
disguise their fear that the multipli
cation of nervous wrecks Is a grave
menace b the nation.
One reason for this is tho fact that
men so aftlicted are exceedingly dif
ficult to treat medically They must
le kept In hospitals In quiet, dark
rooms, isolated from tho outside world,
u way from voices and noise. They are
often physically helpless, for In some
men extreme shock or fright causes n
complete relaxation of tilt- muscles, o
tha' they can neltht r stand nor walk.
Medical writers eall th.s hysterical
paralysis, and It seems to be not un
common in the trenches .luring u bom
bardment by heavy sun tire. It !.-,
however, not true paralysis, Ir Is
panic or terror with Intervals of night

horrible dreams of battlo expose the

cording to Secretary Lansing's figures,
seventy-six American cltlzenii have been
massacred In Mexico since 1912 and
forty-seven In the three yearn preceding.
What a blot on' tho honor of this great
nation ' No wonder wo are held In
contempt by .the other great nations of
tho eaith. I have been "all over," and
1 know of no country where cltlr.en of
thu United States have any respect
shown them or are treated with any
consideration.
If you will visit Canada at the pres
ent time I think you will find that our
ptople are disliked there almost ns
heartily as the Germans. The Cana
dians don't want us. and It Is a matter
of dlltlcutty for a Yankee to retain his i
employment, no mutter how long ne nas

Is niwvshovn when tho traveller from

THE FAIL OF ERZERUM.
A Shadow Thrown Otcr British Jubl.
1st Ion by Hnssln's Victory.
To thk Kpitob or Tub Hu.v .Sir:
There was no great Joy In England over
the Russian victory of Erzerum, and
them will he les Jubilation when tho
Russian advatico to the Mediterranean
or to Constantinople. Every Ruslan
succeas In Asia will emphasise Eng
land's dilemma In this war.
In the past England has made war In
turn upon each European nation with the
help of other Powers as soon as thnt
nation 'became powerful enough to en
danger the supremacy of England on
the seas. Whllo this policy which made
the ally of yesterday the foe of to-day
earned for England the name of "per
fidious Albion," It was no doubt the best
policy for the growth of tho British
Empire. Yet It was a dangerous game
and In likely to miscarry lit any new
complication.
Whatever be the) outcome of this war
England will be the loser, unless the war
turns out to be a deadlock without a de
cisive victory on either side. If Ger
many wins on the Continent she can
laugh at England and bldo her time to
Krl BStli jf ncrmnny loses the war
nothing matters much for the Germans.
but Russia will be sure to dominate tsitli
Asia and Europe. The prophecy of Na
poleon will be fulllllod. England svill
have to get ready for her laM great nnd
boieless war. in that war she will have
no ally In Europe, Germany, the only
nation which oucn could successfully halt
the Russian glacier, will be ullled with
Hussta and Japan. Arid then the Anglo
Americans will have their much desired
opportunity ef pouring out tholr jood
like water for dear old England, but It

prayer for England:
O r.ngbindl long, long may It t r
