Why europe Wont Make War.

why EUROPE won MAKE war.
New York World: That usually
sane paper the London Spectator is
"seelng things" Admiral Canevaro
once Italy's Minister for Foreign
Affairs, made a speech at Touon--
possibly after dinner at which the
wine was OF superior brand in
which he said that European nations
would "perhaps consider the neces-
Slty of uniting against America,
Africa and Asia" J he Admiral
suggested that "the future ofcivIliza-
ton" would require such IL union.
The spectre Of Europe forming Il
military and naval community Of
interest" fighting trust, so to
speak, to down America Africa ard
tfia, makes deep impression on
the Spectator "The annovanre of
the Continent with America is very
deep it says. 1t specifies three
reasons for that deep annoyance
first, our protective tariff and trusts
have caused Europe to think that
we aim "to monopolize trade, and
so in the end to control all the
wealth of the worId;'' second, our
anti European policy in Asia, par
ticularly our fr1endIiness to China;
third, our attitude III South Amrri
ca. whose territory we Will not take
ourselves "nor let anybody else"
The annoyance Of Continental
Europe is quite inteIIigiblc, so far
at least as our commercial policy
goes. Its avowed aim has dong been
to make trade with other nationsas
one'sided as possibIe-to sell every
thing to and bny nothing from them.
Yet the Spectator is careful to dis.
sociate England, which is the only
European country which does not
aim at the same end by protective
tariffs of its own, from the suggested
hostile alliance of "the Continent" .
But the vision of the United States
of Europe inclusive or exclusive Of
England, attacking th e United .
States OF America, sureIy belongs
to the domain Of operabout1c rather
thai to that of serious affairs. Eu-
rope at war with America would .
soon be hungry and before long
starving Europe. .
The Impression that only England
depends largely for food supplies
on this country is mistaken. Ut the

ly speaking, Or almost three
sevenths. were consumed by the
people of Continental Europe.
Moreover, European Industries

THE meeting of the Southeast Mis-.
souri, Press Association at De Soto
last Friday and Saturday was very
interesting, instructive and enter
tanning, and while the attendance
was not what was desired, numcr-
icalIy, it, was larger than usual.
The meeting was called to order
at $50 p. m. Friday, by J. F,
Mitchim Of the De Soto Press,
president Of the association, and was
led in prayer by ReY. Grow, after
which Hon. Sam Byrns delivered an
eloquent address of welcome which
was responded to by Hon. N. A.
Mozely, editor Of the Bloomfield
Courier. The regular order of busl-
Hsss was then taken up and several
very interesting papers were read
and discussed during the session
Friday evening we were invited to
attend an entertainment given by
the public school which was very
interesting as well as entertaining
and was enjoyed by all. After the
entertainment we were taken to the
banquet hall, banqucted and toasted
till prudence said enough.
The meeting was called to order
Saturday morning by the President
and led in prayer by Rev. Father
Furlong, OF New Madrid. The reg
nIar order of business was resumed,
interesting papers read and discuss
ed, the following officers elected,
and the meeting adjourned. Eli D.
AXE of the Iront0n Register, presi-
dent; Colonel Paul B. Moore of the
Charleston Enterprise, vice presi.
dent; W. W. Waters of the New
Madrid Missourian, secretary, and
W. Il. Grow of the De Soto Rcpub-
llcan, treasurer.
Editor J. F. Mitchim, retiring
president, was honored with tho
presidency OF the Worlds Fair CO.
operative committee with the priv
ilege Of selecting his tour colleagues,
After adjournment, the editors
visited and were shown through the
railroad shops and driven over the
city Of splendid churches and school
buildings, in carriages.
TO say that we were royalty en-
tertained would be no cKugeration,
and the many c0urtesles shown
were highly appreciated and ENJOY

Triumph in Electrical Transmission.

Triumph in Electrical Transmission,
When it was proposed in 1886 to
chain Niagara 10 commerce and
manufacturing by transmitting It's
powerln electric currents 10 Buffalo
many scientific men shook their
heads incredulously. Not only the
engineering practieabiIity of trans.
mitting the power such IA distance
doubted, but it was not believed 10
be possible to convert the hydraulic
power of the cataract into electrical
energy.
1t remained for the wizard Tesla
to supply the enthusiasm and the
inventive skill that finally realized
one Of the greatest engineering tri,
umphs' of the century. The lre-
mepdoas forces of Niagara were
utiffaed and transmitted over twen-
seven miles of upland and lowland
with tritling loss of energy, to tnnn
the wheels of industry in Buffalo.
Tesla was the one electrical genius
wh0 insisted, against the stress Of
much scientific opinion. that the
transmission Of tins power was pos.
slble.
Since the completion of this en-
glneerlng marvel in 1896, which
gave to engineers a hint of the pos
sibllitles of electrical transmission,
projects involving a transmission
OF currents Of high voltage for much
greater distances have been carried
to successful conclusions.
The longest Transmission of elec-
trio power in the world was tested
at Oakland, CAL, last Sunday, when
street cars were run by power
generated on the Yuba River. l40
miles distant. A current of 10000 |
volts was transmitted the entire
distance with a loss of only 5 per
cent. OF course the higher the
voltage the smaller the percentage
of loss. 1t may be possible to IN
crease the voltage to such point
that there will be practically no loss
of power through transmission.
Events in the electrical world
certainly point to hydraulic power,
converted into electrical energy and
transmitted through cables, as the
industrial power of the future.

Why Stop At Steel?

Kansas City Times: Although Con-
gresham Babcock's proposed bill to re-
move tariff duties from all the products
manufactured by the steel trust has &
string tied to it, as was recently shown
IN The Times, the Philadelphia Record
believes he is sincere, and is of opinion
that his attitude indicates a trend on the
part Of segment of the republican party
to insist on revision and scaling down
OF the schedules OF the Dingley bill.
"The tariff controversy" it says, "is
now chiefly confined on the one side to
the extreme prOJectianists, who are blind
to the abuses Of the system, and, on the
other, to those republicans who agree
with Representative Babcock of Wiscon-
sin, that the 1u,ics should be removed,
or substantially reduced in all cases in
which the domestic products are con-
trolled by industrial trusts"
Mr.. Babcock's bill, however, even if
sincerely intended, stops with steel pro-
duets. Why not widen its scope? The
steel schedule Of the Dingley tariff has
not the most need for reform. In COM
parison with some other duties the rates
on steel products are reasonable and
mild
Take the cXorbtant duties on WOOL
for instance. They have caused the
greatest mischief to our wooden indus
tries. As a result, a new reign of shoddy
has come in. To slnuggle pig iron or
steel rails is somewhat difficult, but no
of watching by custom house
officials can keep down the contraband
traffic in woUlenso on which duty OF near
ly 100 per cent has been placed.
Tariff reform ought not to be attempt
ed in patches. Duties should be revised
and cut down all along the line. In all
places where the tariff enables the manu-
facturers Of trust goods to sell cheaper |
to the foreigner than to the home con-
5umer, it should be abolished, and such |
articles as trusts produce should be plac-
ed on the free list.
Democrats are unanimously in favor of
his kind OF reform, and if a few republic
,ans like Congressman Babcock will CO.
operate with then, it will be an easy
natter to turn the scale against the
present high duties which increase the
OF the people to defend
against the combines.
