NEW ENGLAND INDUSTRY.
Boston Herald.

The announcement of the proposed
reduction of operation by the cotton
mills OF New England is in no sense
an indication OF disaster. There is n
division of opinion in the industry as
to the necessity of such a movement
at this time, and 1t is entirely precau-
tionary In its character. The past year
has been notably successful in the New
England cotton industry, and the mill
situation is stronger than 1t has been
for some years. The market is not
oyerstocked with the manufactured
product and even an ordinary demand
would keep the mills at their full ca
pacity of production. Partial curtail-
ment ia planned at this time because
present demand is light. and In the
existing uncertainty of the business
world. conservatism advises against
piling UP a surplus of manufactured
product. which would only further de-
molarize the market. The consensus of
opinion of manufacturers and jobbers
Is that the period of curtailment will
not be long, and that out OF the expert
ence viii come better market conditions
advantageous to the operative as we'll
as TO the mill owner.

NOT FOR WAR.

President Eliot of Harvard university
recently advised young men Of Hebrew
nationality to Join the militia and try
10 regain the ancient martial spirit OF
their nation. To this advice Rabbi
Fletcher very properly takes exception.
IN Boston dispatch the Rabbi is quot
cd as follows:
II was shocked TO read President
Eliot's advice to the Jews He said that
the Jews were inferior to others in
physical development and stature. and
he suggested that the young men join
the militia and cultivate the martial
spirit of their ancestors.
IN so far as President Eliot pleaded
for physical development and an out
of-door life / cordially sympathize with
his idea. But when President Eliot
harks back TO the glorious times when
the Jews had a martial spirit the loss
of which he deplores, and to regain
which he urges them to join the mi
itia. then, as Jew as an American,
as man. l protest against his utter
ance.
The Harvard sage errs In asserting
that there Is no reason why the Jews
should not make good fighters.
There happens to be the best of
IedSuHS. Ine jew mas got out of the
habit of fighting He has lost the prinl-
tive mans desire to Kill, because he

President Elliot's appeal to the Jews
must be In vain. because, by long ira
dition. eliminating now in native in
sunct. your average Jew believes that
lsraels mission Is peace,
This Is true. The great principles OF
which Judaism was the exponent dur

agation of which Christianity was called

the destinies of men, cannot be spread
by the sword. like Mohammedanism
They VIII grow and conquer only by the

quered empires and overthrew pagan
systems of philosophy.

on the contrary, that when the mind OF

tFor tho .,Newsp by n, J. Hapsood.l

lFor the ''Newsr by RI. ]. Hapgood.
The cause Of the recent stringency
In the money market which resulted in
the temporary suspension of thousands
OF employees all over tho country hae
been guessed at by many authorities
Some blame one thing and some an
other. I believe. however, Il Is gem
orally recognized by those who havo
made n study Of the signs OF the times
that the existing conditions are the out
come OF complication of causes. Fur
thermore the opinion has often been
expressed that IL one thing more than
| another can be considered responsible.
1t is the frenzy for speculation so
prevalent among the American people.
| 1t Is not so much the get-rich-quiols
idea-although this enters into It to a
| large eStent--but the excitement OF the
game seems to be irresistlbly fascin-
ating. There is nothing In the wide
world that arouses a mans interest
more Intensely than a game OF chance
Ihe uncertainty OF the thing, II is said,
makes II worth while.
Just watch the boys on the street
tossing pennies. The element of ex-
element and greed for gain is just as
obvious on the street as on the En-
change. The fiuctuation in the stock
market has the same psychological ef-
feet on the consciousness of those con-
cerned as the slip of a coin or the turn
OF card. The ticker tape produces
an Identical kind OF excitement in the
mind of both the race track gambler
and the man who speculates in wall
Street.
This is perhaps healthy and per-
tectly moral excitement, for In sub
stance 1t is not muh different from
the intense interest which business
man displays in his looking over daily
gross receipts. 1t is love for gain
and everybody loves to win. Self
preservation is the first law of nature
and we all want to be self-preserved
at the lowest possible cost and trouble
to the self
we want something for nothing-all
OF us-but the wise one is not going to
play game that can't be beat. You
can't beat slot machine and you can't
beat the races. In fact, 1t is next
to impossible to beat any game of
chance, and the Wall Street game Is
hardest of all.
Restrict your gambling instinct and |
learn to satisfy your desire for gain |
by moderately safe return for your |
investment. A good savings bank or |
u conservative business is the best
place for the man of small means to
put his money. A sound per cent
dividend is far better than hundred
to one shot that doesn't come in.

Those who md fault with our naval ad-
