THE JOY or rER11...,,
Disposition Of Men to Court Danger
and Trihe With Death.

From the London Spectator
No one can doubt the joy that attends
peril who has seen the men Of certain ne
groid races prance into battle, or, still more
significant, into the dangers of another's
battle. Could authority, blasphemy or even
the sjambok keep the Zulu and Basuto
scouts who accompanied British columns
in South Africa out of the zone Of fire?
How they laughed and bounded, or If on
horseback galloped, shrieking with pleas
ure. where the Mauser bullets Missed and
hummed, gambling with DEATH unasked,
not wanted, big black childish nuisances
often, noble in nothing but the nobility of
physical courage, but in that with all the
blood of all the Towards of heroism. Their
dead kings, Chaka and Dingswayo, knew
how to organize Bantu holiday when they
used to bid their impis charge and stab
each other for nothing but pure sport.
Where, to an induna and his spearmen, was
the pleasure in women or maize beer COM
pared to the fierce embrace Of danger the
drunkenness of the drink Of deadly combat?
Men may pass the whole of their lives
without either being themselves or seeing
fellow man In danger. Yet who In his
dreams has not sported with jeopardy, max
ing mock of 1t, and awakening with the
same strange exaltatfon as fills the encoun-
terer Of a living peril, perhaps with the
same fire in the eyes? And what phantoms
Of danger hang over the pillow, what Storm
ings Of imminent deadly breaches, what
wrecks and CONGREGATIONS, what racings

pursuit Of robbers. or being a robber. away
from certain visionary horsemen, soldiers
or constables, who thunder after! What
fun they all are! But there are hazards
which, real OF spectral, are no fun at all,
even to heroes. which glaze the eye instead
Of firing It, and turn the bold bombardier
to a little whipp'd dog These are the
lonely, helpless perls, the falling from dir
zy cliffs, the being swept away on irresisti-

something such as these; he was snipe

bottomless boys which culver all over their
acres at the mere tap of the foot like the
breasts of laughing girl. We got him out
when he had sunk to his chest, but the
morass did not shudder more than he. But

Why England is Peaceable.
From the London Spectator.

From the London Spectator.
The huge problem still remains-not, Is 1t
the right thing to do to give our cavalry
swords or rifles?-not, Shall We pay our
private soldiers one shilling or two shillings
a day?-not Shall we require this or that
qualification from divisional officers?-but'
Can we make war? Can we, that is, STILL
IL we are forced to it, engage In war with
power or with powers as we were able TO
engage in war in the early years of the last
century and even SO late as fifty years ago:
The question, we acknowledge, looks at
first sight absurd "Of course! would be
the answer of the music halls, and in GER
tain respects the answer Of the music halls
is a valuable answer.
But still, can we? We have to remember
that the economic conditions and questions
affecting the nation have altered during the
past fifty years. A country which goes TO
war has to consider not only the provision
ing of the army engaged in lighting Its pat
Ties but also the provisioning OF the popu-
lation which it maintains at home. At the
time Of the Crimean war We had popula-
ton of something under thirty millions, and
we had about nine months supply OF corn
to be bought at price; for at one time the
price of corn during the Crimean war rose
to 52s. quarter. Today we have popula-
corn than we did fifty years ago. and II we
had at any moment to depend for our food
upon the supply Of corn within our shores
we should have only three months supply
upon which to draw, unless, of course, we
could get more from outside.
The question then badly sta ted-there be-
ing a great difference between thirty mil
lions to feed and nine months corn and
forty millions to feed and only three
months corn-is whether we can still con-
template the possibility Of war with a great
naval power in the same spirit as that in
which we have contemplated 1t In the past?

Gompers Opposes Arbitration Bill.

A dispatch from Albany, N. Y, yesterday
says: President Samuel Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor appeared be-
fore the senate committee on judiciary to-
day to oppose Senator Lewis bill providing
for so-called arbitration of difficulties be-
tween public-service corporations and their
employees
Mr. Gompers said: "If you enact this
principle into the legislation of this state,
and make labor compulsory even while
waiting for the decision of tribunal, or In
accordance with the award of that tribunal.
you will simply make outlaws Of peaceful
and law-abiding citizens. II you outlaw
strikes you will simply give place to the
harsher measures which you cannot legis-
late out of existence, the right of men to
combine and quit work, If need be, for the
betterment of their condition"

The newspapers and legislators in the

Due to the aggressive German naval cam
