Present-Day Thoughts.
BY G. GRosvENoR DAVE.


There is common sense in interna-
tional arbitration. 1t brings into eX-
istence between nations the same
sweet reasonableness that character
ICES civilized individuals. Disputes
between men in progressive 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
housebreaker is always better pre-
pared for a successful struggle than
the half-awake and honest. but thor
oughly nervous, householder. In
theory, of course, ''the righteous is as
bold as lion;h in practice, however,
the rending and devouring strength
of the king of beasts has been TOO
often Oh the opposing side.
Thus with advancing enhghtment,
we canvass numberless disputes be-
fore properly constituted tribunal,
and though the laws delays are te-
dious and though judges prove that
they are men by making errors, yet
we all concede that things are better
managed that when knights were
bold, and barons held their sway
The glamour OF fiction still fingers
over that period when the point of a
lance was a proof beyond all question
ing; but the clear, real light of mod
ernity shows us that, in our days,

tories to the righteous. This is ad-
vance, and he is benighted who de-
MES it.
*s,*
Broaden the thought now, if you
will, and answer to yourself the ques-
tion. ''If my neighbor and | do well
to avoid blows in a dispute, then why
not let my numberless neighbOrs do
the same when dispute arises with
those of another natiOn?" A very
reasonable objection will be that per-
fection has not yet been reached in
the conduct of individuals or nations.
True. So we sometimes by force com
pei obedience to the rulings of court;
and we often by law use force to stay
the hand of the quarrelsome and
murderous. This is granted and the
same will be nationally 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 q.
S. of Columbia, Italy was compelled
TO make a show of force in order to
secure settlement. We too since April
21st, after all reasonable means have
failed, have been compelled, at great
expense in money and in men, to do
police duty in staying the slaughter
ing hand of Spain, that unprogressiYe
employer of Cortez and of Pizarro, of
Torquemada and of Weyler. But as
bloody disputes among men are reach

The Portland Me- argus, speaking
of the patriotism of the Maryland
people in the war with Spain, says
Maryland seems to be kept in a
tremor of patriotic enthusiasm as the
war sweeps along. The fact that the
cruiser Baltimore took a prominent
part in the battle Of Manila was fact
highly gratifying to the Monumental
City and to Maryland. Satisfaction
was heightened by the presence of a
disabled gun from the cruiser and now
Marylanders a.e properly taking
pride over the achievements of Schley
at Santiago, meaning the whole world
shall know that he halls from their
State. And their patriotic enthusi-
asm is taking a very practical form.
They are talking of raising enough
money TO buy home for the gallant
commodore. The movement began
with a big meeting at Cumberland on
Thursday night last. As one enthus-
iastic admirer of this naval hero ex-
pressed il: "Marylanders feel that to
Commodore Schley more than to any
other one man belongs the credit of
wiping out the Spanish fleet at Santi-

pen will so record it,

Army Camp in Maryland.

The military commission, composed
of Col. J. NJ. Moore, Lieut-Col. Chas.
Smart and Maj. H. S. Heistand, spent
last Friday i'll Oakland, looking for a
site for military encampment. They
came in the private car Of Mr.. Thomas
Fitzgerald, of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. Mr.. S. B. Hege, of the B.
s. O. passenger department at Wash
ington, ID. G. was in the party. All
the available land in this locality was
examined. They desire 1000 acres of
land with large stream Of water for
bathing purposes and spring water
for drinking and cooking purposes.
D. E. Offutt, J. T. Mitchell, Col. a.
G. Sturgiss and Thos. j. Peddicord,
of Oakland, accompanied the party
on their tour of inspection.
A fine camp, covering 800 acres,
could be located near Mt. Lake, but
while it has magnificent drinking
water, it would lack sufficient water
for men for bathing. 1t is understood
however, that a tsuitable camping
place has been found along the line of
