| and one can afford to smile at them; but
smiling is forbidden when we realize that
all this increase of apparent strength
among European nations is really an in
crease of weakness. Taking as an example
the case Of Germany, with its lordly
chanceling who prates of "divine rights,
and we shall realize how like a wasting
consumption Is this reliance on force.
The function of the army abroad is to
starve out all originality in the rank and
file, SO as to transform the men into so
many unfeeling, unthinking machines.
The perfection of discipline is to make
them do, needless of consequences, just
exactly as they are commanded. This de-
struction of initiative takes place, too, just
when the young men are best fitted to
abundant energy.
Yet this is only part of the injustice;
for the army relentlessly takes from home
the young and capable and turns them
into receivers of aims, like the paupers and
the demented. The army produces moth
ing but demands everything. 1t placesu upon
those who are least vigorous the burden of
supporting those who are most vigorous.
Then having ground away the individual
ity Of the soldier by years Of Draconian
severity he is thrown back into the world
with wrong ideas of labor; and he needs
must go through second attempt to ad-
just himself to life as it really is, and not
life as the few military years have led him
to think it to be.
The whole tendency of the system is to
put brakes on the wheels of progress and
to create discomfort. Common sense
among the common people is making
them feel that they are in the position of
the tabled cat whose paw was used to drag
out hot chestnuts for the military mon,
keys. The parade and the show do not
help The people up, but do hold them
down so that military few may swag
ger over them and trample on them.
The cure of this insanity of force may
come from without; it will never come
from within except by bloody revolutions.

Starting once more with the initial
statement about common sense, let US
look abroad for while in order to prove
the point In Europe are four OF the five
great nations that lead the world, Russia,
Germany France, England. Notwith-
standing their progressiveness in other
directions they seem to be afflicted with
national dementia by reason Of rivalry of
force.
For nearly twenty years not one OF them
has been involved in a serious European
war; yet throughout all those years, and
long before, each Of these great powers
has been piling up ornaments, increasing
army and navy budgets, multiplying de-
structive forces, and exhausting to the
point OF protest the pockets OF the great
common people upon whom the burden
of all this falls.
What result has accrued? Nothing. They
are all relatively where they were at the
outset and as dsnclned as ever to come

PRESENT-DAY THOUGHTS.
BY G. GRosvENoR DAVE.
Copyrighted by Dave & Tabor.

There is common sense in international
arbitration. 1t brings into existence be-
tween nations the same sweet reasonable
ness that characterizes civilized individ-
uas. Disputes between men in progress
sive countries are no longer legally settled
either by crude attack with bowie knife
or shot gun, or by orderly duel with sword
or pistol.
Why? Because late dawning common
sense in this benighted old world realizes
that in such conflicts the wrong man is
likely to be victor; on the principle that
the sneaking house breaker is always bet
ter prepared for a successful struggle than
the half awake and honest but thor
oughly nervous householder. In theory, of
course, 1.-THE righteous is as bold as
lion;n in practice, however, the rendng
and devouring strength of the king of
beasts has been too often on the opposing
side.
Thus, with advancing enlightenment,
we canvass numberless disputes before
properly constituted tribunal, and though
the laws delays are tedious, and though
judges prove that they are men by making
errors, yet we all concede that things are
better managed than when "knights were
bold and barons held their sway. The
glamour of fiction still fingers over that
period when the point of lance was
proof beyond all questioning; but the
clear, real light Of modernity shows that,
in our day, there are rights to the weak
and victories to the righteous. This is ad-
vance, and he is benighted who denies it.
Broaden the thought nov, if you will,
and answer to yourself the question: "If
my neighbor and do we'll to avoid blows
in dispute, then why not let my num-
berless neigh bors do the same when a dis
pute arises with those of another nation?"
y very reasonable objection will be that
perfection has not yet been reached in the
conduct of individuals or nations. True.
So We sometimes by force compel obedi
enee to the rulings OF a court; and we
often by law use force to stay the hand OF
the quarrelsome and murderous. This is
all granted, and the same will be nation
ally true even when the common sense of
arbitration permeates the conscience OF
the five great nations of the world.
During the past three weeks we have
seen proof of this in the fact that after
President Cleveland had arbitrated in
dispute between Italy and the United
States of Colon bia, Italy was compelled
20 make a show of force in order to secure
settlement. We too, since April p, after
all reasonable means had failed, have been
compelled at great expense in money and
men, to do police duty in staying the
Strengthening hand of Spain, that unpro-
gressive employer of Cortez and of Pizarro,
of Torquemada and of Weyler.
But as bloody disputes among men are
reaching minimum because of the SAN
ity of modern thought, by the same sanity
shall The same end be reached among ma
tons. For though murders still occur
and though wars still rage, yet are they,
we believe, storms whose force is e1-
pended, as at sea. on the surface, while
the great currents go on their stately way

Historic Faneuil Hall was damned to

The meeting was called by Timothy ].
Coakley to unite all the divisions Of the
Ancient Order of Hibernians in Boston
and the neighborhood and other patriotic

Of the Civil War. Many men of we'll

American flags and the stirring music
rendered by band, gave the gathering a

Fully 5000 people succeeded in getting
