\ Pitiful Trnged.t
OX board the Spanish steamer Montserrat
200 French and Gorman reservists have
sailed for home?to tight. On the ship they
are boon companions, mingling freely, dis
cussing war events, swapping yarns and to
bacco in perfect coincraderie. These Ger
mans and Frenchmen will, by the time they
have reached the other side, like each other
personally so warmly that there will be tears
at parting. Human Drolher and Human
Hrother of different tongues, but like hearts,
will clasp hands and say sad things about
the parting. Then they will go. each man to
his own llag. and they will pet guns, and they
will shoot each other down like dogs, all be
cause nations are at war.
It is not ho far a cry hack to our own war.
and to the parting of families. There was
a gray old mother who sent her two son* to
tin* front?one North, one South. The boys
kissed at taking leave; anil the mother
blessed them both, and said: "Hoys, it is ter
rible that you are not on the same side, but
you must be true to your convictions, and if
you meet in battle you must neither know
your brother!?' The same family gave an of
ficer each, to North and South, to lead oppos
ing armies. Father fought son. affections
were, thrown to the winds, men became mere
animals with high motives.
Somehow, to the average intellect; these
things appeal ub pitiful in I he extreme. And
civilization, in the face of "great military
necessity," goes on disuniting, disrupting,
tearing asunder those whose natural affec
tions should make so monstrous a thing im
possible. Well, it may be right it may be
the way of arms?it may be justified by mili
tary necessity; but all the same, it is pitiful,
and civilization that permits it should hang
her head in shame.
\ Hush for Fresh Air
Ci'KKKNT reports of real estate operators,
and the better evidence of one's own
eyes, indicate a rush for fresh air that Is leav
ing the populous centres to those who must,
whether they will or no. live in a state of
congestion. Those who can. and who have
in them the wholesome desire, are making
for the suburbs, and in city development there
is a great tendency to wide houses and open
grounds where values will permit.
It is plain enough to satisfy any one, th.it
a city built low and wide is in the nature of
things more, comfortable than a city built
high and narrow. There is no more striking
illustration than the town on Manhattan Is
land. which, to accommodate its enormous
population, is beginning to tilt with the
weight of its skyscrappers and tenements.
I'p there, where life is measured in dollars
and cents, lobsters and silver buckets, pre
tense ami gilt, there are also suburbs; and
t^tosc who brave the subway scramble and
cuminuters' inconveniences, are doing (lie
best they may. to at least live in comfort, no
matter how (hey may he compelled to work.
Congestion tends '<? artificiality of exist
ence. The home disappears in the environ
ment of apartment life. There is no place
to dig. no place for baby to play, no place to
relax. That growing city, which counts con
dition of living among ils responsibilities, and
weighs its advantages by the happiness of its
people, would do well to look forward to
wideness and roominess, rather than plan
anything which seeks to centralize at tho ex
pen so ?>f comfort In this respecti Hichmond
is favored with present roominess ami plenty
of space for growth
The I'liilippine Dill
Washing!on Star lakes exception to
* Commissioner Quezon s argument that
tIk .lone: IMiilippino bill t hoiild lib passed
?because 111> Filipino people should be as
. ured at thi> psychological moment that they
may rest easj as t<> liieir future, since the
t'ultcd States will not under any circum
stanced betray its trust."
"Is it necessary," asks the Star, "to as
sure (he Filipino people that it 'will not
under any circumstances betray its trust'?
Does Sehor Quezon himself entertain any
don lit on t hat point ?"
This is a very clever way to create preju
dice against Senor Quezon's argument, but
that is all Why should Senor Quezon's fel
low citizens be overly confident of our good
intentions when we refuse lo reaffirm them?
"Why should not 'hey become suspicious if
iur Congress deliberately votes down a pro
posal to make our promises a little more defl
nit? ? If we intend to keep our word what
is the objection to telling the Filipinos just
what it !? that we promise?
The Star intimates that only pride stands
in the waj : that we, as an honorable nation,
think tlie l'il\|)inos should be satisfied with
our declaration that we will do the right
thing l'liat may lie the position of those
opposing the Jones bill, but it will not satisfy
the Filipinos or \mcrieuus either. Kvon be

affirmation would not lie satisfactory due
