This is sure) MEMORIAL A French rconomiat is authority for th«’ statement that the European war is costing the nations engag«*! I48.400.00U daily, lie divide« this enormous expense among the nation« engaged for a full year of war as follows: His estimate of the coat for Eng land. France, Russia. Belgium and the other smaller powers on the side nf the allies, is 110,000,000,000. and of Germany, Austria and Turkey at *7,400,000.000, for the first year of the war. This economist also states that England and France can sustain this enormous financial bur den with greater ease than Germany and Austria When we consider that the nation al debt of them- nations before this war liegan was from illMi to 1150 per capita, a debt more than ten times that of the Uni tad States, one simply wonders how long this enor mous burden can I* bourne without placing all of the warring nations in a bankrupt condition. Should this war continue for two years, the percapita indebtedness will lie near |5< mi for each man. woman and child in each of the countries. A family of five persons, supposing th«- wealth r«|uaJly distri buted. would have to pay interest on *2500, on account of the nation, besides earning for their share of the nation's current expenses. The Unite«! State«, with her tre- menduous resources, could scarcely carry a financial burden so heavy. The people would not submit to be taxed so heavily here, anti it is proliablr that when this great war doses and the bill of coats made up. the people over there will refuse to pay the bill. No matter how large the war chests were when the war tiegan. the bottom must ewn be reached, if that point has not now been r«*ached Then war loan after war loan must tie floated to carry on the conflict. The money lenders will soon refuse to loan more money on their bonds, when the war must cease tiecause of sheer exhaustion. Then will tie the time to establish world peace, because th«me European nations will he glad to make war impossible for many years to come. No matter which of these nations was to blame for the commencement of the war. ail of them will be glad to quit, just as soon as they can and retain their dignity and respect among the nations of the world. It may. and doubtless will, be the cause of the change in the political con duct of these countries. A farm of government that leads its people in to a war so destructive to life and property as this one is proving, will not retain the love and respect of its people. And. in the end. the people rule after all. no matter what the form of government may be. DAY Next Sunday. .May SO. is Memor ial day.

Each G. A. R post would march to their re- spective cemeteries and scatter flow era on the graves of their dead comrade«. The citizens, at first, paid but little attention to the day nor the services. The war had then lieen dosed but two years and while the people respecte«l the soldier for what he had occomplished. they were too deeply engr<M»ed in the living and affairs of the day to think of the dead. But as time advanced, the day grew in importance. State after state made it a l«-gal holiday. The citizens as well as the old veterans gladly gave the day to the memory of the dead and began decorating the graves of the love«! ones who had pasaie<l on, with flowers. Every year added graves of old veterans, until now it would lie difficult to find a cemetery which does not con tain the grave« of Civil war veter ans.
