Righteousness and Peace.


I'VE have heard righteousness contrasted
with peace Why, I tell you that right
eousness and peace cannot be divorced. I'M
agine the state Of mind Of that man who
insists that they can be divorced. What
could be greater righteousness than peace
on earth, good will toward men?
1.-The man who assumes that he Is right
and insists on judging his own course has
not the proper sense either Of justice or Of
righteousness. 1t Is the man who offers
to submit his cause to a righteous Judge
that embraces the righteousness that exalt-
eth a nation
To emphasize his plea Mr.. Carnegie added
that II he and another man should have a
dispute he, Carnegie, would not be honest
if he insisted that he was right and would
not listen to the judgment of third.
why, the only thing for that other man
to do would be to say: Well. you may be
right but want to go before Mr. Root or
Mr. Hughes here and what they say about
your rights we will abide by"
Points to Which Carnegie Objected.
President Roosevelt in his letter which
was read to the delegates and the audience
that filed Carnegie Hall had referred to
peace and righteousness in this way:
First and foremost, l beseech you to re-
me mber that though it is our bounden duty
to work for peace. yet it is even more our
duty to work for righteousness and justice.
Ii is righteousness that exalteth a nation,
and though normally peace is the handmade
of righteousness, yet If they are ever at
odds it is righteousness whose cause we
must espouse.
Secondly" the Presidents letter went on
to say, II again earnestly ask that all good
and earnest men who believe strongly In
this cause. but who have not themselves to
| bear the responsibility of unfolding the ma
TONS honor, shall not by insisting on the
| impossible, put off the day when the posi-
| bic can be accomplished"

President Roosevelt and Andrew Carnegie,

Mir Carnegie called upon his audience
to imagine the state of mind of man who
could divorce peace and righteousness, and
welt, who had said in his letter, read to the
delegates couple of hours before, that If
peace and righteousness are at odds the
cause Of righteousness should be espoused.
Mr.. Carnegie departed from his prepared
speech when he took issue with the Presi-
dent. His was the last address Of the
day and everything was going smooth with
him when he suddenly left the reading
desk, pushed his spectacles up over his
head and launched out:
I'VE often hear justice contrasted with
arbitration. Arbitration is the essence OF
justice. But what is the first principle of
Justice? Junius tells us that the first prin-
ciple of justice is that men should not be
judges in their own cause. When a man

People In Washington who control
things that congressman must have,
he says, have agreed among them
selves on a scale Of prices, and these
prices are such that every cent Of a
legislators salary is exhausted before
he leaves Washington.
IF congressman received only $1,000
year they could live just as well as
they will live on the $780," said Mr..
Adamson the other day. THE people

Mr.. Adamson said he rented two

landlady $50 month for them and in
structed his secretary to move In. He
returned to his Office In the afternoon
to find that his order had not been
obeyed The landlady, he says, had
learned that Adamson was a congress
man. She also learned of the increase
In salary, and she accordingly notified
the secretary when he went to take
possession that the rent had been rails

1t Is Mr.. Adamson's idea that COM

ART OF wlNKINa.

Professor Sterling Assures Women It

Professor Sterling has aroused some

'the art Of winking" in lecture on

1T requires" he says. "veritable edu-
cation to wink, although blinking Is
very simple. The effectiveness Of fine
eyes can be immeasurably enhanced

Of half closing them, conveying at will.

their hereditary genius for utilizing
their eyelids Spanish women would

A snob was defined by the speaker
as imam who prostrates himself be-
fore those who have position and
wealth and who considers himself su-
perior to those who do not bask In the
sunshine Of influence"
Professor Russell also scored the
cynic and the pessimist.
"a cynic falls PROSTATE before the
duties Of life," he said. HE watches
the game from the side lines, giving
advice to those who have the courage
to participate in the game. Get into
the game yourselves, my friends, and
do not stand aloof, neglecting your alb
solute duties.
"The pessimist also gives way before
the problems of life. He sees and
wants to see no good in anything that
exists or can Ibe accomplished In the
world. His point OF view Is distorted
by his constant habit OF putting things
ir the darkest light.

feet and up on your toes, as athletes do

along for yourselves and others. Above
all. take manly attitude In regard to

Skee jumping bids fair to become one
of the most popular Of winter recrea-

persons have taken to this sport this
winter than ever before In the colder
parts Of the United States.
Ole Feiring of Duluth is the Ameri-

this title a few days ago in his homo
town by flying leap Of 112 feet For
several years Gustave Bye, also Of Du-
luth, held this record. His best jump
was 1O0 feet.
Skee jumping is one Of the most spec
tacular Of sports. 1t is also q daring
feat, and for person to compete In q
skee jumping contest he must not only
be possessed OF great suppleness, but
must also have an abundance Of cour-

JUDGE FORTS WARNING.
We Are Going Too Fast, He Says.

We Are Going Too Fast, He Says.
Stick to the Constitution.
"The constitution Of the United
States could not be written today" de-
clared Judge J. Franklin Fort Of the
supreme court of New Jersey at din.
ner Of the Middlebury College Alumni
association at the Cafe Martin, In
New York, the other night, says the
New York Sun. 1T would be impossi-
BILE to get together body Of men who
would adopt 1t. Gladstone said moth
ing like 1t ever came from the human
brain. Compared with 1t the constitu-
ton OF the state Of New York is mon
strosity. Yet the convention that pre-
pared 1t was composed OF such men as
Root and Choate The trouble is that
today men would want to embody In a
constitution what should be In the
statutes.
"The constitution of the United
States has stood through three foreign
wars, through the greatest rebellion
the world ever saw and through the
questions Of interstate commerce. 1t
will stand through the Japanese ques-
tion. 1t Is good enough for all time to
come.
II believe the courts of the United
States have power to reach any viola
ton Of law or breach Of treaty In the
United States. The constitution says
that the decisions Of the United States
courts and the treaties with foreign
nations shall be the supreme law of
the land. Sooner or later the supreme
court must pass upon this Japanese
question. II they do so In the light OF
the constitution, they can come to but
one decision.
'.The American people demand that
their judges be not allied with any COR
porations or business or client. l be-
lieve that the president and legislators
should likewise be men who have no
alliance with anything inimical to the
public welfare. Hitherto we have made
the mistake Of allowing men to occupy
great Offices irrespective Of their fit
ness Too often they obtained those
Offices by the use Of the pocketbook.
I'VE are going too fast In the United
States. From this men think there Is
nothing higher than money. This Is q
mistake, and 1t will be great danger
to the republic for educated men to get
this idea"
