A Prophet of War.
baltimore News.l

The voice Of General Butler. like that Of the
historical character. Is still for war. He made
war himself in the military sense, and has
made war in the less deadly field of politics.
Although he has reached the time of life when
most men are for peace and tranquility, the
General not only favors but predicts another
War between tins country and Great Britain.
General Butler, as becomes a prophet. Is
dark and mysterious: and, although he evil
IDENTIFY means that our next war viii be with
England. he does not actually say SO. nor does
he explicitly declare that il will be about
Canada. but he gives strong hints that such Is
his opinion.
Ever since we began 10 have a history. he
remarks. every generation has seen the United
States engaged in war. Unless the ineXOra-
bic logic OF history Is about 10 fail, the time
when we will have the next war on our hands
is not far off, Whether It will bee concerning
the Canadian problem. do not pretend 10
say" Nevertheless. he adds Significantly
that Canada must one day be Ours-by gift, by
purchase or by conquest.
The general would no doubt like to live 10
at least witness this coming war, for he is too
old 10 take active part in 1t. He has not for
gotten the last great conflict in which he was
soprominent figure. and his blood stirs at the
thought of his own doughty deeds. H0stili-
ties are not in sight just now. however. and 1t
is not worth while To grow alarmed about the
matter. Canada Is somewhat agltated, but
not dangerous.

Deadly Car stove.

10 have little influence on the action of some
of the railroad companies. They do not take

rious devices designed 10 supplant car stoves

common Of late. Surely. 1t would be cheaper
to adopt a safe method Of heating the cars.
even If the initial expense We're greater than
the cost OF the antiquated plan of burning
coal In the correr stoves.
II is becoming increasingly evident that the
only law which Will drive out the car stoves Is
that which viii make the highest officer, I'm

for deaths that can be traced directly to its
use When such officials realize that their
own safety is In jeopardy because of the en-
ployment OF car stoves. they viii discover
that some other method OF heating is both
safer and more economical.

They have won, but by SO greatly reduced a ma

While ayowing desire for free trade with
