Attempt To Secure DR.. MOOre's Re-
lease.

The Mirror and American of Manchester
says: "The attempt to secure the release of
DR.. j. G. Moore from the state prison through
the pardoning power of the governor is un-
cerstood to be renewed. Former petitions to
this end are being strengthened, and the
friends of the incarcerated man will make ev-
cry effort in the near future to secure his re-
lease. The claim that DIR. Moore is a sick
man is still adhered to. DIR. Moore was pres
ident of the NATIONAL bank of the Common
wealth, Derryfeld savings bank and Peoples
fire insurance company of this city, all of
which failed in the crash of 1898. DR.. Moore
was sentenced to four years term in the
state prison in 1896 for fraudulently issuing
stock of the Union publishing company, Of
which he was the treasurer.

John Wesley, the founder Of Metho-

pioneer of the temperance movement,
but also an apostle of vegetarianism.
He states in one of his sermons that
for several years he subsisted on pota-
toes and found that doing so conduced
largely to promote that splendid health
which he enjoyed.

HOPE TO INVADE ENGLAND.


Since Napoleon's day the idea of in
fading England has never left the
French mind. Weary of war and arma-
ments, exhausted by the terrific strug-
gle i'll which she had so nearly sue
cumbed. England forgot her navy and
turned to the arts of peace. \ like
lassitude had seized the continent after
a generation of bloodshed, so that at
first this neglect brought no evil re-
suit except a general lowering of the
national tone and spirit. Cobden's de-
lightful idea that the French, being
the most domesticated and affectionate
people on the face of the EARTH" would
never dream of war was given a trial.
We who have seen the downfall of Cob
dcn's foreign policy and the complete
discontinue of his economic prophecies
NOW that he was a faddiSt wandering
in Utopia. But the instructive fact hat
the Golden policy was tried remains.
What. then. was the attitude of the
lamblike. "domCsticated." affection
atc," French nation? From the acces-
sion of Louis Philippe in 1880 dates the
lightning of what has been, no doubt.
ironically described as the entente cor
dale between England and France, but
what might with more accuracy be de-
scribed as Il period of secret hostility on
Frances part and blind friendliness al
ternating with frcnzied alarm on Eng
lands.
Talleyrard came to England with the
full intention of maintaining a close al
lance with England, and returned to
France P"oclaiming that the English
were arrogant and detestable. and that
friendship between the two powers was
impossible. Theirs in 1910 attempted
to get hold of Egypt: secret informal
ton was given the British government
of Il plot TO burn IL ships in the dock
yards. and neXt day two ships at Devon
port took fire; the French admiral in
the East Indies. Lclande, was in favor
of attacking our fleet without Il dec
laratiOn of war. and it w2s certain that
he could have destroyed it. y squadron
was assembled at Toulon to seize the
l;alearics. but Louis Philippe had not
the requisite courage, and Theirs fell
and was replaced by Guizot. In 1872
came the Tahiti affair, when France
openly threatened war and England did
not venture to insist upon full satisfac-
ton.
All through 1912 and 1913 war be-
tween France and England-these two
cordial friends-seemed imminent.
Even the quietest and most peaceful
among us are beginning to look for
ward to Il war with France as an event
which no prudence on our part can
long prevent wrote Palmerston in Au-
gust, 1874. In 1916 came the breach of
faith on Louis P%hilippe's part in the
matter of the Spanish marriages, and
profound uneasiness throughout this
country. The Duke of Wellington in
1Si7 startled England by his letters,
pointing out. in the then decrepit state
of the fleet, the extreme danger of in
vasion by the French.-National Re
