A Serious Danger.

The war fever is undoubtedly spreading over
the continent of Europe. Strong symptoms of it
become already manifest among the impulsive
French people. There was q time when the American
people gould look upon a great wal involving all
Europe .and ~Asia with comparative unconcern, but
since the dangerous idea that q, a world power it
Is the manifest destiny of this country to help reg
ulate the affairs of other countries has taken DOS
session of the present administration, it is natural
Tor the thoughtful, conservative citizen to be anx-
ious. We can enjoy the vast commercial advan-
tage of a neutral nation, or indulge in the fearful
foil of sharing in the disastrous loss of life and
treasure.

''lhe only sane attitude the United States can
take-and preserve is that of strict neutrality. There
Is no need Whatever for us to NEEDLE. The open

ADVOCATE A
CHANNEL IN THE
MISSISSIPPI

Washington, Jan. ia six-foot
channel in the Mississippi river at low
water from st. Paul and Minneapolis
to Cairo, a distance of 1000 miles, TO
be completed by the time the Panama
canal is put into operation, is the pro-
ject advocated by the house committee
on rivers and harbors yesterday by a
delegation consisting of Governor Van
SAINT OF Minnesota, Ellis B. Usher Of La
Crosse, Captain Alonzo Bryson, Daven-
port, Frank Galenne of st. Louis and
Lewis B. Boswell of Quincy. Illinois.
The total cost OF improvement is esti-
mated at S15.000,00O. No specific part
OF this amount was asked by the dele
cation yesterday, the principal object
being to impress the committee with
the necessity Of authorizing the pro-
ject.
An association known as the Upper
Mississippi Improvement company,
representing five states bordering on
the upper Mississippi, has been organ
lied for the purpose of advancing the
project. Governor Van SAINT told the
committee that 80 cities were directly
interested in the project and that 49,
600 people would be benefited through
the assurance of the river competition
in transportation. The committee
took no action.
