The military spirit has invaded the
churches, at least the suggestion to drill
tie members ofSunday schools II military
tactics Is urged by patriots who rvcogn .ze
no patriotism which does not find ex-
preston in drill, drum, flag and cannon.
Il will not be great while before the
law will require every pulpit to be deco
rated with flags with cannon to the right
of it, cannon to the left Of it, cannon
everywhere. We must have patriotism
though it takes every frecracker IN
China, and>e7ery loom 10 the country be
compelled to 90 into the business Ct
weaving bunting. No one discovered
tie genuine essence of patriotism until
il was found that it consisted in
playing that school houses are barracks
and that knowledge of military tactics is
history. Let the small boy quit wasting
time on the three Rs and give his atten-
ton to playing "soier" and we will be
deluged with good citizens. We have
been running on for years with false
IDEAS OF education. The little tin sojer

TIE Germans IN this country are to
celebrate the victory of Sedan In several
Of the large cities, notably in New York,
Chicago and st. Louis. It is an ill-ad-
vised movement and will undoubtedly
result IN riots as does the celebration of
the battle Of the Boyne cause dissen-
sions among the Irish il this country and
in Canada. The battle of Sedan result
ed in a victory which will ever make
the German heart throb with pride as it
should, and It's celebration IN Germany
is proper. no matter how much it may
gall the French. But it is not proper
that a foreign event should be cele
brgted in this country which cannot
be otherwise tuan offensive to large
class Of citizens of French extraction.
The Germans instrumental in getting up
this celebration have not given the mat
tsr sufficient reflection or they certainly
would not be so regardless of the feelings
Of so many of their fellow citizens. The
celebration OF the anniversary Of the uni
tication OF Germany is proper thing to
commemorate as it Is not suggestive OF
the humiliation of any nation.

The State Journal should not be so
dls!ugenuous IN dealing with the short
age IN the state treasury. It's not the
previous administration which Is re-
sponsible for the shortage. The prev
ious administration" levied no state tax
for the reason that the money received
from ez-state treasnrers made any levy
unnecessary. The shortage Is mainly
due to decrease Of tie license money
received from railway and other corpora
tions, because Of reduced volume Of
business owing to depressed business
conditions. The last legislature is not
wholly blameless as 1t was unnecessarily
ex,ravaganr. Isn't it a little better to
tell the truth about these things?
