PREPARATION FOR PEACE.
In :n address on the peace ship,
just made public, a delegate made
some striking statements. Heri arc
some:
"This is no time to disturb Ameri
can traditions and prepare us for war,
and that preparation in the mil
itary sense is only a century old, but
that is not correct. Preparation in
the military sense is many centuries
old, the ancient histories are full of
it; preparation in a peace sense, how
ever, preparation in a civil ense is
not so old. I call your mention to the
preparation for peace, that now exists
in the United States and Canada.
Whefe there are no forts, where there
are no soldiers, where there are no
tranches or guns, that is preparation
for peace, and that is about
a century old. A preparation tor peace
exists between Norway and Sweden.
There is no fort between their fron
tiers, and that is tke kind of prepara
tion we need now. America is in dan
ger, but of what is she in danger? The
president does not say in his message
of what America :s in danger. At this
time the president docs not mention
a single nation that dc dares to saj
is an enemy of the United States of
America, but the United States is in
danger, none the less. It is in danger
of enemies from within and tliey are
not naturalized enemies either, they
are th men, who arc building battle
ships at tremendous profits: nun
who are trying now, to. add to the bur
den of taxation of the United States
of America and to mortgage poster
ity, for years to come. To fasten this
dreadful military burden upon us, they
are telling us that we want to cliinafy
America, that we are all molly cod
dles. It may be true, that every mol
ly coddle is a pacifist, it is not true,
that every pacifist is a molly coddle.
It is not true perhaps, that every
one, who -favors preparedness in the
United States is a grafter, but noth
ing can be truer than, that every graft
er in the United States is in favor of
preparedness; every corporation law
yer in the United States is in favor
of preparedness. Joseph H. Choate,
the other day, had the superlative Im
pertinence to say that he had consid
ered this matter, that he had gotten
the facts from military auliorities and
had found that America was' not pre
pared in any single respect or in any
particular. Was -ever there a more
absurd statement made by any man
than this one, from a great interna
tional lawyer? America is prepared
now if you want a mil-'tary prepared
ness; it is very very simple.-These
men do not want a military prepared
nts, what they want is a great mili
tary profit. If we want to prepare
ourselves, it is the simplest thing in
the -world. Germany has spent a
great amount of money upon its fleet,
its wonderful navy. Now how does
it go about to protect that fleet?
By the very simple provision of hav
ing mined a harbor; a very simple and
inexpensive matter, but mines in the
harbor offer very little profit to the
steel trust. We arc, "for national ef
ficiency and security," but that is not
the way to go about to get that by
turning our best energies to the mak
ing of murderous instruments of de
struction; by sending our best men
into vile barracks and muddy trenches
and by turning over the public treas
ury to a lot of profit mongers, who
are not actuated by the slightest pat-'
riotic impulse whatsoever. "Ap
plause." STOP AND REFLECT
The Orcgoman, referring to the fact
that the repubican national convention
next year will be held a week before
the national democratic convention
next spring, says:
"Always in the lead, the republican
national convention will be held a
week earlier than the democratic af
fair." Yes, indeed, the republicans
.were In the "lead" at Chic.igo in 1912,
but their lead at the election in the
fall of that year was a very infinites'
imal "affair if you please.
MISFITS
Thp Hi'nosits in the banks of Kausa
last year increased 13 per cent. Not
much liquor in that.
There used to be a saying: If wishes
were fishes we would have some fried
If wishes would bring peace thci
would be a calm in Europe.
The smile that counts is the one
that is good in private lite.
Some nennle's conscience doesn't go
'any further than the conduct of their
neighbors.
The hottest day in summer is not as
sultry as war news.
The steel trust is running over with
prosperity, with more in prospect as
-militarism becomes dominant.
Woe to the men who put this nation
in the column of militarism.
