TT ade.
Washington, Sept. pa great bicy-
ele craze has struck Bavaria, according
10 q report from United Ctates CONNER
clad Agent Carpenter at Furth. He
says the old and the young can be seen
daily practicing in back yards, vacant
lots and along country roads, desper-
ateiy struggling to maintain am equi-
poise, and the apothecarieS are conse-
auently doing a brisk business In lima
nents and court plaster. A short time
ago It was not considered at all proper
Tor young ladies to appear on bicycles,
put the strong prejudice which existed
mas been gradually giving way and now
the ladies, married and single, and the
Toung girls are rapidly becoming devo-
bees of this delightful sport. The local
bicycle firms have begun TO increase
their plants to meet the rush. and two
new companies are about TO EN- bark in
business before the end of the year. The
consul thinks there seems to be fine
opening for the American bicycle max
Pr, as good European wheels ara sold
for an exceedingly high price and they
are certainly not TO be preferred to the
light, graceful American machine The
Germans will not buy on circulars, but
must see the goods, so that the proper
way to reach the market is by means of
agencies supplied with wheels. The
suty, being assessed by weight is small,
not exceeding a dollar and half for
pne bicycle. The wheels should be
fully equipped with mud guards, bells,
and lamps all covered In one price, FOR
the Germans do not like TO buy extras.

mander. The craftsmanship that
could at the proper time have proposed
cOncilliatOry measures to avoid re-
course to arms in the late rebellion
would have manifested higher type
Of genius than the manipulation of
war forces that compelled an unwil-
ling concession. If twenty-five years
before the war we had been as strong
and determined in the council cham
bers Of the nation as we were on the
battlefield the chariOts of war would
never have been hauled out. Whether
this be true or not, it is time to draw
our combating forces from the higher
realm of spirit and not from beneath; (;
to be resurrected out of the animal and
the barbarOus into the divine humani-
ties; to wash the war paint from our
faces and remember that we are the
sons of God.
And, my friends, / do believe we
have passed the war belt of human
development. Cyclones are the result
Of unequal conditions in the air strata
and the whirling currents are the
efforts of nature to equalize tempera-
ture. And in like manner is war the
result of unequal distribution of in

must be conflict of some sort until
these are equalized among the nations.
And Is not this equalization being
rapidly cOnsumated throughout the
world? There is no longer much
chance for serious misunderstanding
Every part of the world is coming into
commercial relationship with every
other part, and our greatest contest to-
day Is what shall be the common medi-
um Of exchange. 1t has been divided
world that has led us to fight each other.
But there Is getting to be one world
with no sections, but one large locality.
With an equal intelligence among the
nations, and equal ideals of right and
justice, we will finally become too good
to war, and when we consider the COM
mercial hazards, and the cost Of war,
we shall be to selfish to fight. And
when we view the modern equipments
of war, and realize how splendid has
been our inventions of destruction, we
shall be afraid to fight, or meet the hor-
rOrs of our own sastly ingenuity; for
Washington was philosopher when
he said: "The best way to preserve

them. Your memorial is secure on
earth only on the merits of what you
have done for the common veal.
Now, am going to be frank with
you and give you an estimate of war as
aside all glamOr of victory and calmly
viewing war in the abstract and with
out considering the cause, is nothing
less than monstrous crime. say
considered abstractly and from moral
ground alone, war is wholesale mur-
der that finds its excuse alone in bar
barism, and DIR. Young was not too
severe when he wrote:
lone to destroy is murder by the law,
And gibbets keep the lifted hand In awe.
To murder thousands takes specious name,
Warsg glorious art, and give immortal fame"
1t is not because you were warriors that
you are honored today but because you
were patriots, and if you had not been
patriots before you were soldiers, and if
you had not responded to war measures
as civil necessity and not as q choice,
there would have been no memorial of
gratitude for you. But war and not
peace is the natural order of the uni
verse. The evolutionary processes of
nature is but warfare continued
through the ages Nothing good or
beautiful exists in any realm that is
not the survival ola struggle. Even
Jesus who was led as lamb to the
slaughter said: II come not to bring
peace, but a sword" and there is grim
philosophy in thehymn of Isaac Watts:
"Must be carried to the skies
On fOwery beds Of ease,
While others fought to win the prize
And sailed through bloody seas?''
Conflict and not peace is the watch
word of the ages and the condition of
all strength. The history of civilization
is the history of it's wars. 1t seems a
sad record and not favorable COM
ment on humanity. 1t is time that
civilization should discover resources of
mind and heart more powerful than
gun powder. Is there not way to
conquer an enemy without filing him
with lead? Will the flowers of peace
bloom only when cultivated with
swords and enriched with human
blood? Cannot the music of civilization
proceed without these seasons of horrid
discOrd? There is something in human
nature among the highest types, that
rejoice in displays of physical power,
and is ready to crown with greatest
honor him who comes out of the smoke
and confusion of war with the shout of
victory. 1t has had its place in human
progress by Fastening the fulfillment of
ideals; it has lifted the hand of op-
preston; it has been the worlds
mightiest educator when only the
cannon shot and clash of arms could
speak in terms that could be under
stood. And this is why the warrior
has always received the greatest en-
comiums of human praise. And this
