WAR AND PEACE.

Look on that picture and then or
this:
over in the Orient Jap and Russ
are killing one another because of a
dispute between two governments
concerning territory
At The Hague is a tribunal created
for the purpose Of settling disputes
between governments.
Is that tribunal a mockery?
The man who was the first to sug-
gest the creation Of this international
court Of peace, and who has been its
chiefest advocate is the greatest land
robber In the world. He Is in favor
OF peace so long as he Is permitted to
grab all the land adjoining hts own.
In one breath he talks eloquently Of
peace and in the next he is guilty Of
aggressive action that calls for war.
The Car is doubtless sincere in de.
string the advent Of that peaceful era
in which the lion shall lie down with
the lamb-but the lamb must be in.

And there are others.
selfiishness is stronger than senti
ment. The nations eulogize peace.

drum throbs and the battle flags are
unfurled. The appeal is to the arbi.
trament OF force.

lucky and other barbarian regionsl
has taken place. Men do not carry
clubs to settle disputes Nor guns.
They have agreed TO arbltrate their
grievances through the courts. But.
somehow, the consensus Of mankind.
which We call civilized. has not ad.
yanced along with the individual dis
position toward peace and fairness.
There is a great deal Of heathenlsm
in our civilization.
But
There stands The Hague tribunal!
Therefore
Let Andrew Carnegie build his
white and stately temple at The
Hague. Let It stand as a perpetual
reminder that here and not on the
battlefield is the place governments
should meet
Let II stand in the Imagination of
the world over and against the Roman
temple OF Janus.
The temple OF Janus was kept open
In time Of war and closed in time of
peace. And so constant was war.
only once in the history OF the Ro.
man republic was Il closed.
Let the noble temple OF Peace at
The Hague be closed In times Of war
and open in times Of peace. And
seldom may it be closed!

other laws. And the demand for the
union card is that way. Men found
they could better conditions bu unit
ing. which is an old story. They
found that If others were not united
they were that much weaker They
have two ways, two right ways, OF
doing away with this obstacle. One
is to persuade the others to join
them: the other Is to refuse to work
with them If they won't join them.
It is the placing of restraint upon the
refractory ones, and also the sincere
ly unbelieving ones, to keep them
from hurting the cause by which
they themselves will benefit.
There is no punishment, much less
revenge, in the right application Of
the principles of unionism; simply
holding back, keeping those who will
not help out of the way, that they
do no harm. They are forced to
stop work II they will not join the
by the mutual consent Of
the latter not to work with them. not
by any aggressive force; and If there
is any wrong here It is in the idea,
the plan of the unionists. not in their
methods (the proper methods, let It
be again understood), for that is
mans right the world over, to band
together for mutual aid, provided
there is no aim to harm anybody
else.
