C.) Herald, which does not resort to the hyster ical, hypocritical prating pretence of patriotism of the .lingoes and has the merit of frankly and honestly stating the truth as follews: Wo (tho United States) shull dispute thin (commercial) leadership1 cither with Drltnln or Germany, nn the caBo may be, when tho opportuni ty presents Itself. That Is why we have kept out or the strangle. It fa to our advantage that our potential rlvaln shall weaken each other iih much as possible. This Is what nil of our apostles of preparedness have In their hearts, and nil flic (alk that oilr post-prandlal orators and statesmen put forth about our objects being purely defensive and our having no Interests In the Eastern hemisphere, and to on. Is Just so much hypocritical balder dash. Wo deslro to bo u (treat nation and to hate oilr "place In the nun." which Is Just n synonym for "bossing tho nhow," and, though we nre not so truculent or so objectionable about It, our aspirations In this respect nro not a whit different from those that Onrmnny has published broadenst to the 'world. In living up to these aspirations we nro acting naturally, legitimately nnd sanely, and thcreforo It Is ridiculous to be dishonest about it mill to attempt to conceal ambitions which wo nre rather scared of because we do not fully understand that they are Inevitable. At the close of the present struggle we shall bo In a position. In all respects but arms, and the will to nrm, to control the destinies of the ter restrial globe. . . . We must arm. ,. . tloiubs and dollars are the only things that count today. Wo have plenty of the one. Let us Iriy In a good supply of the other and blast a path to world leadership as soon as an op portunity presents Itself. It is a good thing to undei'staud the real aims and mo tives of the phindcrbund that is attempting to Prussianize America by "preparedness" preparedness to crush a Belgium or it Serbia, if necessary, to secure "our place in the sun," preparedness to forcibly setae Mexico aild South America as spheres of influence for exploitation. The world is a melon for our wealthy k'isure class, aikt we only need a big army and navy to cut it at the people's expelise. "Bombs and dollars"'are all that is needed we are told and the people are asked to stipplv both. Bombs and dollars ni id blood. What are world-wide destruction and human misery compared to the profits of the plundcr bund The ideals of the fathers of the republic must go. What are liberty, justice and equality compared to "bossing the show" the bosses, of course, being our own bosses? "Bombs and dollars are the only things that count today" ill the preparedness folly. Is a "place in the sun" really Worth while? Ts the sun shine of injustice that glares across the highway of com mercial imperialism to be compared with the shining light of the path of the just, "that shineth more and more unto tho perfect day'" RV RLE F NATIONAL RIFLE Tales of the Town On Christum eve.

CONTEST IN 1916 AVASIIINCTO.V, Dec. :J0. -Uilles for the liMG iiallotutl rifle matches have been drafted by 11 committee appointed to foruiulate tlioni for con sideration of the board for tho pro nfollbn of rkle jirnctfcb, which will uieet here January :!1 for its annual session. Tho suggested ehan0 of rules weie made public today by the war department utid me In Hiibitauce as follews: Tho substitute for the present method'of division of teams by stdiid Iuk llo three classes with trophies and prlfccs for each class, a class A, H and C division on standing, the flrat fifteen state teams to form the first clns, the next fifteen tho sec ond and the remaining teams the third. Class A team members would receive gold medals, class II sliver, and clans C bronze. Cash prizes woiild be dispensed with In the na tional team matohoit. Teams from tho army, navy and marine corps nnd also from schools nnd colleges would be added to tho various classes, according to utand Iiir, a sIiikIo trophy to bo u-warded to the highest United Stales service team mid a single trophy to tho high est school or college toani. The highest score team of the trophy win ners would bo awarded the national trophy, the second team the Hilton trophy nnd tho thrld team the bronze soldier of marathon trophy. The committee suggests that coast artillery bo represented by a team nnd that officers with tlio rank ot major be admitted to tho competi tion na team cnptulns, previous reg ulations having excluded grades abovo captain. A gctiornl revision of rules govern ing pistol matches Is recommended and It Is proposed that the number of rash prizes be luci eased In tho in dividual matches. The board will decldo tlio place of tho lUll'i maUhcs later.
