hand, a nation prepared for war IS
a menace to mankind unless the ma
tional purpose is to treat other ma
tons with good faith and justice. In
any community it is neither the con-
scientious man who is a craven at
heart, nor yet the bold and strong man
without the moral sense, who is of
real use to the community; it is tne
man who to strength and courage adds
a realizing sense of the moral Obliga-
ton resting upon him, the man who
has not only the desire but the power
to do his full duty by his neighbor and
by the state. So, in the world at
large, the nation which is of use in the
progress of mankind is that nation
which combines strength of character
force of character, and insistence upon
it's own rights, with a full acknowi-
edgment of it's own duties toward
others. Just at present the best way
in which we can show that our loyal
ty to the teachings of Washington is
a loyalty of the heart and not of the
lips only is to see to it that the work
of building up our navy goes steadily
on, and that at the same time our
stand for international righteousness
is clear and emphatic.
Of
country's history has the navy been
used in an unjust war. Never has it
failed to render great and sometimes
vital service to the republic. 1t has
not been too strong for our good,
though often not strong enough to do
all the good it should have done. Our
possession of the Philippines, our in
terest in the trade of the Orient, our
building the Isthmian Canal, our in
sistence upon the Monroe doctrine,
all demand that our navy shall be of
adequate efficiency. If it is strong
enough I believe it will minimize the
chance of our being drawn into for
eign war; If we let it run down it is
as certain as the day that sooner or
later we shall have to choose between
a probably disastrous foreign war or a
peace kept on terms that imply ma
tional humiliation. Our navy is the
surest guaranty of peace and the
cheapest insurance against war, and
those who, in whatever capacity, have
helped to build it up during the past
twenty years have been in good faith
observing and living up to one of the
most important of the principles
which Washington laid down for the
guidance of his cOuntrymen. Nor was
Washington the only one of our great
presidents who showed far-sighted pa
triotism by support of the navy. When
Andrew Jackson was in congress he
voted for the first warships we ever
built as part of our regular navy; and
he voted against the grant of money to
pay our huniliating tribute to the pi-

the provisions of the District code, no COM

the mandamus be discharged and the petit

The opinion of the court sustains both

The Ohio Governorship.
Representative Biedler of Ohio was at
the White House for a few minutes, but
did not talk about state matters. of which
there are many things of interest at this
time. The real surprise in Ohio politics is
the announcement Of Lieutenant Governor
Harding that he will stand as candidate
for governor against Governor Herrick,
who Is a candidate to succeed himself, and
has the backing of Senator Dick and many
other strong men. The prohibition senti-
ment of the state Is opposed to Governor
Herrick because he saw fit to sign bill
that did not suit them, while the brewers
are also more or less dissatisfied because he
signed bill that did not meet their APP
prevail. The opposition to Governor Her
rick appears to be regarded as strong
enough to induce Mr.. Harding to take a
dash into the gubernatorial fight, and 1t
is supposed that he has hopes of success.
The Herrick people In Washington, and
the governor has many friends among the
official element here, feel that he will easi-
ly secure the nomination, despite all the
opposition that may be aroused.

slNnuE REMEDY FOR CArARRn
just 1srcathe Hyomei Four Times a
Day and Be Cured.

II a dew years ago someone had
said you can cure catarrh by breath
ing air charged with a healing bal
sam, the idea would have been ridi-
culed and II remained for that emil
nent investigator, II. T. Booth. to dis
cover in Hyomei this method of cure.
Hyomei has performed almost mir
aculotis cures of catarrh, and is to-
day recognized by leading members
of the medical profession as the only
advertised remedy that can be relied
upon to do just what it claims. The
complete outfit of Hyomei costs 81,
and consists of an inhaler, a medicine
dropper, and n bottle of Hyomei.
Breathe Hyomei through the in
haler for a few minutes four times n
day. and It will cure the worst case
of catarrh. 1t soothes and heals the
mucous membrane of the air pas

In PendletQn there are scores OF
we'll known people who have been
cured of catarrh by Hyomei II II

will return the money you pay for

dence that can be offered as to their
faith in the remedy.

fearless, that the citizens are becom-
ing desperate. Many inhabitants of
certain sections of the city, much
visited by burglars, have armed them
selves to protect themselves and their
property against burglars and thugs,
as they are unable to get adequate
police protection. Commissioner Nc
Adoo says that the number of police
men and detectives in Greater New
York Is insufficient, but skeptical cit
iEens are inclined to believe that IL
is not al all a question of numbers.
II Inability to discover and appre-
capability of the police force, the po-
lice fDrce of New York displays. un-
deniably. the most astounding lack OF
ability. Some critics of the adminis-
tration are of the opinion that the
police 'forceris numerically adequate
and clever enough, but is compelled
by orders from above to devote so
mucn time and effort to the persecu-
tion of trivial offenders guilty OF mi
neither enough time nor energy left
10 cope with the real criminals.
Health Conditions Improving.
II the figures published by the
health department are reliable. the
health conditions in New York are
better now than ever before in its
history since Colonial times. The fig
ures are based upon the census OF
1900 and show a death rate of 1s per
i000s Allowing for an increase of
lropulation since 1900 of about 10 per
cent, would reduce the death rate t0
about Il per 1000. That figure beats
all previous records.
The report of the health depart
-ment for the first six months of the
present fiscal year shows that there
were 50,S43 births in New York
against 47,3S4 In the firs1 six months
Of 1904 and 37.769 deaths against
1850 in the first six months of 190i
There have been 20.76S marriages
during the first six months of this

responding period of last year.

Never before in the history of thi!
city has there been such an eagernes'
-and rush on the part OF the owners o.
real and personal property TO pa!
their taxes at the first possible mo
