sessions in the hope of obtaining a large indemnity. No dream of high finance could be more absurd th1n this fan. tastic investment. The banker who ad. vanced funds on the prospective gains of such an undertaking would be con- sidered out of his senses. The states. man who proposed it would be written down as an ass. War is too serious T business to be engaged in as a finan. eial speculation, and We may safely dis. miss that possibility as outside tha bounds of either reason or conjecture. The prey may be easy and inviting, as Senator Lodge fatteringly suggests, but the difficulties in the way of getting it are so enormous as to constitute val
 uable element in our national self-pr,.. tection. Just why an opulent country. inhabited by brave and aggressive people, should be considered an easy prey, the senator does not explain, but that idea Is just as logical as the be. lief that after l32 years of independ. enee, one of the mightiest nations on earth is in danger of conquest from an oversea enemy covetous of our riches.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1908-04-29
IAN EASY AND INVITING PREY

One of the big navy arguments now
 adays is that the United States, by req
 son of its opulence, constitutes an open
 invitation to military aggression, and
 that, therefore, We should be defended
 by navy capable of resisting any flee,
 that may theoretically be brough, against us. Senator Lodge expressed
 th.s idea in his speech of Tuesday on the naval appropriation. bill. He sad
 that "a great and opulent country with brave and aggressive people like our own, is an easy and inviting prey if not well defended.''
 IL is rather curious to note the re- vival in the l32d year of our independ ence, of military notions which were prevalent at period when incessanr warfare was the normal state of man. kind, and when the conquest of weak and opulent territories was a common diversion of aggressive generals. The world has made some progress since then, and while the necessity for main taining expensive armaments has not disappeared, conquest for tho sake of conquest :s game that has pretty much gone out of date. There IS a great deal of loose talk about the danger of raid upon civilization by some modern At. tila, or of the descent of some Napo- leanic war lord upon wellfavored TO- gions, but these speculations entirely ignore the conditions and particularly the immense expense of modern war fare. No modern nation could enter on . career of conquest without running it's o.n treasury, and draining to the dregs the national resources. The most recent war proceeded to the point of financial exhaustion of both combatants. and there ended. Neither belligerent could have carried on warfare without tho aid of external resources, and when these were at last refused, the game was up for both. Who is to pay the bills of conquestf What international fnanciers would furnish the funds for taking advantage of the easy and invit. ing prey offered by the opulent United States?
 The only reply to this we have heard s that some adventurous nation--Japan B usually in miud--might undertake a speculative attack on American pos.~

SOME KNOWING PEOPLE

Who have no money are circu- lating the story around Globe that If the Military Heights" addition in Fl Paso. owned by McCcrd & orpin, is so good, why do they not sell 1t in their home city. instead of offering their lots to citizens of other cities. The wise cnes forget that Fl Paso is to this country hke Denver is to Colo rado, Salt Lake to Utah, or Spokane to Washington. All roads within a radius of 800 miles of El Paso lead to that city. Fl Paso's trade district embraces the following we'll known mining camps, not to mention hur dreds of other towns: Bisbee, Tombstone, Clifton, Globe, Nor onci, Metcalf, Pearce, Silver City, Or gan, Mogollon, C.ooney, Pllos Altos, Dawson, orogrande. Durango, Torreon. Sta. Eulaia, Cananea, Batopilas, Paral, Cumpas, Nacozari.
 The really knowing people know that their money is safer in Real Estate Investment in big center Ike Fl Paso. possessing diversified resources, than in 6 town of one resource. However. to further contradict the statement of tho knowing ones 1t will be necessary to state that over sl5,o0o.0o worth of Military Heights Lots" have been sold in Fl Paso, and more are being sold every day. Over sl3,ooo worth of Military Heights lots have been sold in Globe in the last three weeks to tho Really Knowing Kind.
