+" IMnuMANlTY or WAR;
Discussed BY Rev. NJ. Root In Ms discourse al
The Elmwsod TsmpIs

The Inhumanlty OF War" was the
subject of the discourse by Rev. T..
Tallmadge Root at the Elmwood tenn
pie last evening. and In substance the
preacher said that his theme was taken
from the book OF Amos, who had mes

inhumanity in war. Amos protected

given free rein. Amos protested against
this. Amos has had to walt 26 centuries

The Red Cross has been recognized by
all the nations OF the world. Today not

lie opinion TO use a rife loaded with an
explosive bullet. This same triumph
must lead men TO abolish war itself.
War is inhuman. More than that need
not be said. The horror OF the naval
battle OF Santiago, whare hundreds OF
Spanish sailors were cut 10 pieces and
burned, Is TO be lamented. Interna-
tional arbitration should be sufficient In
all cases before blood comes 10 boiling
heat. If people only saw the facts the
warrior would be abhorred. Any ma

Our esteemed contemporary. the Man
ufacturing Jeweler. which has wide
reputation of knowing what it is talk
ing about, scouts the very idea of
jewelers. trust, and furnishes an argu-
ment that must be convincing to such
persons as have regarded with doubt
and nmazement the rapid formation of
the trust in the columns OF such OF the
newspapers as seem to have fallen most
completely under the powers of the
hypnotic promoter. "of all the indus
tries thus far brought under the trust
formation, says the Jeweler, that OF
making jewelry will prove TO be the
hardest 10 organize and hold. In the
first place. the multiplicity OF manu-
factories forbids the formation OF a
combination that will absolutely control
the trade: and should it be possible for
a trust TO purchase and control the 500
or more general manufactures of Jew
elry. such a purchase instead of de-
stroying competition would have the re-
suit Of Increasing IT," II appears, more
over. that the jewelry boys, whom the
trust proposes TO throw out OF business

so hopeless plight as their fellows in
other trades under similar conditions.

There is plainly excellent ground for
scepticism regarding the formation OF

plate such a project suggests a trust
nightmare with more liabilities and re-
sponsibilities than any ordinary group
OF human beings. even such clever and
such resourceful chaps as manufactur-
ing jewelers. are. would care 10 tackle.
A particularly fanciful poet might pic
ture 10 himself the act of sweeping the
