Nations as well as men know now
better than ever before that wars are
frightfully costly in precious lives as
well as in National resources. The
Boer war nearly doubled taxation in
England and it left behind an increase
in the National expense that bid fair
to be practically permanent. We have
the same experience as the result of
the Spanish war. We must for years
pay millions more for our naval es-
tablishment than if the war had
never occurred. These results, hum
dred times repeated, carry lesson in
teaching moderation of demand and
action that has not been lost on kings
and presidents and cabinets and con-
crosses. To go to war is to let loose
the barbaric instincts. 1t is to aban-
don arbiti alton and compromise, and
even honorable concession and set
back the growth of the civilizing in
hhences. A few more victories like
that won against the Beers, and Eng
land would be undone. There is no
real winner in long and bloody con-
fict. Both parties lose. Perception
of these facts is a matter of more uni
versal knowledge and acceptation
among the masses and rulers now
than ever before In the history of the
world. For this reason we dissent
from Secretary Roots dictum that
war between the United States and
another nation must come some time.
1t is not necessary that it should
come at all, and every day of peace
should make the chance of conflict
more remote. Detroit Mich Jour-

If, as Mr.. Wilson declares, the far
mers have relieved the nation of for
eign indebtedness, what has the ma
tion done for the farmer in return for
this great work ? Much indeed, say
the lawmakers. Universities, COL
leges, institutes, experiment stations,
etc, have been established for the
education of farmers and their chill
dren, and research and investigation
have been provided to solve perplex-
ing farm problems. All these are
granted, but their effect is not so
much to make the farmer independ-
ent as to enable him to produce more
and still further increase his exports.
His product values are left in the
hands of speculators, who play shut
tlecock with them, without thought
or care of the interest of those who
produced them.
And not only so. Laws are actually
on the statute books which enable
certain people to compel these same
farmers to pay more for the imple-
ments with which they make the
crops that pay our foreign debts,
than foreign farmers, who compete
with us in the worlds markets, are
required to pay for the very same i'm
plements made by the same parties.
How;can American manufacturers
ship farm implements to foreign
countries and sell them for less money
than American farmers are compell-
ed to pay for the same implements ?

This is the way the Philadelphia

Undoubtedly the administration re-
allies that it is playing very tick
lish game. 1t has large feet in Co.
lombian waters, and marines encamp-
ed on Panama soil, to prevent Colon
bia from asserting her sovereignty,
and at the same time the administra-
tion knows how unpopular war would
be. So we are told from Washington,
and truthfully without doubt, that
"every effort will be made to avoid a
clash between the Colombians and the
United States marines" The admin
istration has got itself into place
where 1t Is difficult to hold on and i'm
possible to let 60. 1t must protect
Panama, the "indepent state" of its
own creation, and it is vitally impor-

avoid war with Colombia. Will not

CathoEicity in South America.

We were pleased last week to hear from gen
tlenan who lived five years in the different countries
Of South America high praise for the priesthood
and religious devotion of the people of those parts

intimate friend. He is the son of Presbyterian
minister, has extensively travelled, is gifted with
artistic ability and keen discerning intellect
Il went to South America prejudced against
Catholics aud returned a Catholic at heart" he
said. 81 believe the conditions of the country are
such that it would be hell but for the priests.
They have power over the people in social Gus
toms that safeguards the purity of the home
Strange as it may seem. the secret of the rigid
morals of the homo are dictated by the priesthood
The lives of the priests and nuns are pure and holy
They are devoted to and efficient in caring for the
religion of the people. The masses show sincere
and deep devotion totheir creed. No one works on
the great feast days, ali reverentialIy lift their hats
or bow when passing a church. and when the Ange-
lus bell rings stop to pray wherever they may be.
"Freemasonry is strongly established in South
America. and many of the men are affiliated with
it. These do not practice their religion. but the
greater part of the men faithful members of
the Catholic church"
Such sentiments as these from talented man,

in Boston, were expressed before few friends and
