BURTEs THE HATCHET.

The Baltimore Sun makes a note of
the fact that Mrs, Carrie Nation has
given up her Ratchet, acknowledging
the failure Of the violent reform meth
cd. Mrs Nation ought to have known
that from the beginning OF the work
that made her notorious, but perhaps 1t
was notoriety she sought. The Sun
says:
THAT eminent travelling reformer,
Mrs. Carrie Nation, who came out OF
Kansas some six or seven years ago
and has been running around loose ever
since, announces that she has discard
ed the Ratchet. which she has so long
waved as an emblem of reform. After
six years of smashing bottles ana
breaking saloon mirrors, she has found
that men still drink, and there are
more gilded palaces OF sin than she
can demolish, even " she works al
her waking hours. She has also found
that she has declined from a novelty
into a nuisance, and that the police do
not hesitate to arrest her nor the judges
to impose fines, Just as ii she were an
ordinary disturber and not a reformer.
Some people believe that Mrs. Ma
ton Is u sincere advocate of temper
ance, while others are inclined to think
that she Is a mere seeker after notorie-
~ and excitement, Few will contend
that she has furthered the cause of pro-
hibitlon. and many think that her
methods have brought 1t into ridicule
and disrepute. Mrs. Nation announces
at last that she has given up the
Ratchet. and will hereafter seek to
achieve her ends through the ballot
Temperance Is seldom promoted by
Incorporate methods. The suppression
Of the Ratchet Is a gain only to be ex-
ceeded by the suppression OF Mrs. Ma
tom
The fact Is that Mrs. Nation has
achieved nothing In the way OF reform
by her assaults upon the property Of
other people. But for her sex she
would probably have been killed long
ago in some low den. Mrs. Nation has
perhaps learned the great lesson un-
derstood by so few; BLESSED are the
meek. for they shall inherit the earth"

JAPANESE WANT PEACE.

There seems TO be practical unanmity
now, among all whose opinion IS en-
titled to consideration that there Is no
reasonable foundation for the war talk
that has been INDUCED IN for some time.
This was the key note OF the address
at social function given by a Japan
ese society In New York a few days
ago.
About 200 guests were present al the
banquet, and among the speakers were
prominent naval officers OF both Japan
and the United States Admiral YAM
amoto said In part speaking OF the two
countries;
we have always been next-door
nelghbnrs, With only an ocean between

HOW TO KEEP THE PEACE.
President Tannce Of Rrown.

The old adage. In time of peace
prepare for war; is fallacious.
would rather say, in time OF peace
prepare to make war lmpossiblel" The
men who are always urging nations to
prepare for war when there Is no war
do not realize what they themselves
mean. They really mean that. when
England builds a "Dreadnaught," we
must build bigger vessel still in
order that England may build third
that we may build n fourth larger
and more powerful than the other
three. Thus preparing for war in
time of peace Is preparing to make
war last for centuries to come, is
practically preparation for making
war eternal. The way to keep the
peace ls not to place bulldog i'm your
front yard.
