In the course Of their report the mi

\ PEACE SOCIETY.

A peace Society hah been organized
at Los Angeles This Is said TO be the
first on the Pacific coast
At the first meeting about hundred
persons We're present, and constItu-
ton patterned after that of the Amer-
can Peoc Socity was adopted.
The feature OF the gathering was a
lecture by Or. II II. Guy OF Toxic,
Japan. The speaker said he had lived
h. Japan for eighteen years. apd that
the Japanese are not preparing for war
now The speaker declared that the diff
aculty between the United States and
Japan is nothing but little misun-
derstandlng which can be easily nd-
iusted If the people rise up and strong
~ declare themselves as opposed to the
spirit OF war.
We are pleased to notice that the
principles tor which yeace societies
stand are being recognized Friends OF
those principles should remember, how
ever that a general, conversion Will
ne, a be affected by the formation of
soclties that meet once year or so.
An active propaganda for peace, as
earnest as that OF the temperance
friends. or the friends OF suffrage. is
needed. Great things are not achieved
by the occasional passing OF resolutions
and an annual conference.
