Here the great question has been free

strength Government here has ex-
listed for the man; there it has ex-
listed for a people. 1t is curious
matter that while Germany has led
the world in intellectual freedom yet
political liberty has there found
restraint and a curb. 1t even has
seemed to lack exponents and cham
pions. Whether this is due to the
repressive influences of the govern

people or to their social environments
and philosophie thought we are un-
able to say. But the iron-clad laws
of Germany attest the fact. And to

The meeting was held to discuss

enough sentiment existed in the
county to warrant su,h step. w.
" Marsh, superintendent of the dis
tlict, said the time was ripe now for
an election. When Supt. Wheeler
put the question the vote was unan-

ing the leagues work, said:

iquities? | heard saloonman claim
that the pastor has hurt the wet

those incidents would creep into the
limelight on such occasions serve as
a boomerang in the hands of those
who attempt to use them.

In all the churches of the coun-
ty Sunday, representatives of the
Anti-Saloon league talked for the
temperance cause and money was
subscribed to defray expenses Of the
election which it is said will be held
not later than next October.

GOVT WILL
DEFEND LAW
Enters Case to Uphold EN-
ployers' Liability
Act.

Washington, May l--The United
States government has commenced
a defense OF the constitutionality OF
the employers liability law. 3N
The first move in the defense was
the filing in the Supreme Court OF
errors New London county. second
judicial district OF Connecticut, the
governments brief in the case OF
Edgar q. Mondon, plaintiff against
the New York, New lIayen & Hart
ford Railroad Company.
Attorney General Wickersham and
Wade II. IGllis, his assistant, who
prepared the brief. have taken
strong personal interest in this case
because OF its great Importance and
at the outset ate that the govern
ment has no interest in any other
question involved than to defend he
validity of wholesome and inn
portant act of Congress, passed TOR
the prote tion of a vast number OF
citizens and for the safety Of inter-
state commerce In the brief 1t Is
contended that the statute is con-
stitutional though broad enough to
include an action for an injury sus-
tanned by a servant Of railroad en-
gagged in interstate commerce caus-
ed by the negligence Of an employee
not engaged in interstate commerce.
rhe brief concludes as follows
t'This is wise, progressive and
humane statue 1t seeks within APP
proved and conservative lines 70 ac-
complsh an object whose worth and
Justice all men have long admitted
and many other civilized nations
have long ago attained. Legislation
that is to protect railway employees
does not benefit a class alone. The
safety Of an Interstate carriers
servants means the safety of inter-
state commerce itself.
"'With respect to this act, not only
its beneficial purpose but the care
with which 1t was framed to meet
the very constitutional objections
now urged against it should make its
validity assured"

Washington May War Is to be

Dakota on the effort to erect statue
on a public square in this city to
Alexander Hamilton. He introduced
a resolution repeating the resolution
providing for such memorial.
~ want that man forgotten as
soon as possible" said Senator John
son in conversation. "I do not

THE LAST OF
TIE BIG STICKS

Down in the White House in Wash
ington, it is said that President Taft
is toasting his shins evenings, before
fire which is fed with big sticks, Of
various forms and shapes which were
sent by admirlng friends to the
belligerent president, Theodore
Roosevelt To many this will appear
as the irony of fate, while others will
consider it thorough joke, that the
man whom Roosevelt selected to car
ry out MY Policies" should warm
his toes by a fire which was licking
up one of those policies, to rule by
might. Both of these views may be
right, but back of these there is
significance which is really beautiful.
10 see n president who stands for
peace, warming the rlrs: nome I'm the
land, in the very heart of the nation
by a fire made or the remaining en-
blems of his war like predecessor, is
indeed a pretty bit of sentiment
which should strike the heart OF
every American
For seven and one-half years but
more particularly for the last four,
the voice of the warrior has been
heard, and the cry has been for
more battleships, more marines and
a greater army. The people have
been given ru nors of wars and
until they have all but
forgotten peace. Now the new presi-
dent, who is accredited with being a
man of peace rather than of war,
warns himself before fire which
consumes the fast emblem OF a war
like policy.
Universal peace is the object of
peace loving people. They hope for
the time when all powers shall gath
er TO arbitrate their differences and
war shall have been relegated to the
tribes in barbdr.sm. where it rightful
ly belongs This can be realized and
it will be realized, but not until the
nations bring ;heir big sticks and
drive the chill from the halls of the
international peace palace with an in
ternational bonfire.
