CARNEGIE ON WAR SPIRIT.

Tells Peace Society That British
BattIeship Building Revives It.
Members of the Peace Society of the
City Of New York and large gath
ering of others interested in interna-
tional arbitration listened recently to
addresses by Andrew Carnegie and
WI Ting Fang, Chinese minister, at
the Carnegie hall celebration in New
York city of "the present condition Of
world peace"
Mr.. Carnegie arraigned the policy of
the present British government in re-
gard to building nayies, which, he said,
had revived the war spirit and begun
an international race in providing arma-
ments. The steel man, however. ex-
pressed his approval Of the suggestion
made by London writer for an An
glo-American alliance in the interests
Of peace in the Atlantic and the Pa
cif1c. Speaking of this plan, Mr.. Car
negie said in part:
This idea seems to have merits. We
would simply announce to the world that
we would not permit any power to attack
these possessions. On the other hand.
Britain would not be committed to en-
gage in any war in which we unfortu-
nately engaged. Any power attacking us
would know it could not attack our Pa
cific possessions without having Britain
to contend with.
1t would be made condition that the
one need not help the other unless the
party involved in dispute with another
power should first offer settlement by
peaceful arbitration. This being refused
by it's adversary, the treaty then to be-
come binding.
The suggestion seems well worthy of
consideration. It may be step toward
the final solution Of the peace Of the
not without justification for indulging the
hope and belief that the leading nations,
furthest advanced in civilization, must
come eventually to this conclusion.
In conclusion Mr. Carnegie said:
Be Of good cheer No great cause is
making such rapid progress as that of the
peaceful arbitration Of International dis
putes. There are those present tonight
ilized nations. Just as in our own genera
ton slavery, man owning, has passed
away, so are the youth of today to see
man killing no longer disgracing civiliza-
tion Be of good cheer. All goes well.
Men are soon to beat their swords into
plowshares and their spears into pruning
hooks and learn war no more.
WI Ting Fang said that the policy
OF China must be primarily for peace
and that any activity in providing an
army and navy was only for protec-
ton.

MILITARY PRISON BURNS
Twelve Hundred Soldiers Prevent Con-

vIcts From Escaping.
Leavenworth, Kan, April Lit took
1900 United States soldiers to main
tain order and to prevent prisoners
from escaping during a fire which de-
stroyed four buildings of the federal
military prison here.
All the 800 prisoners were marched
out of their cellhouses when it seemed
that the whole prison certainly would
be destroyed and were held under
heavy military guard until the fire
was under control. Then after some
of the cellhouses had cooled suffi-
GENTLY they were marched back again.
The fire was discovered before mid
night by a sentry, who fired his pistol.
The fire call was sounded and the en-
tire garrison at Fort Leavenworth
turned out. The Thirteenth infantry
was thrown around the prison.

Captain Scott points out that the

hence for purposes of comparison
Lieutenant shackleton's farthest south

the great point.
General Booths beau ideal and pa
iron saint is John Wesley. There is
much in common between the two
both religious reformers, both break
ing away from old conventional Gus
toms, both preaching in the open air
and using methods denounced as SEN
sational, both appealing to the poor,
the sinful and the suffering; both do
ing prodigious amount of work, not
only as preachers, but as writer's and
organizers; both looking personally aft
er the movements they founded even
to minute details, both starting great
new departure in religion, both jeered
at and held in contempt in the begin
ming, but gaining the golden opinion

A Universal Traveller.

Whatever may be thought Of the re-
ligious methods of the Salvation Army,
it's social work merits and receives uni
yersal praise Behind all these benef-
icent activities stands the prophet
like figure of William Booth. Auto
crat he may be, but if so he is an au-
tocrat for good and one who has done
more to spread self reliance and self
respect among those who most needed
both these qualities than any other
one man Of his time.
Not only his Institution, but the man
himself, is known in well nigh every
land beneath the sun. In the prosecu-
ton Of his work he has been univer-
sal traveller, having trayersed Amer
lea and Europe many times and hav-
ing visited Africa, Australasia, India
and even Japan The dream Of his
life was to stand in the Holy Land,
which he did some years ago, and his
venerable figure seemed like one that
had stepped out of the Old Testament
and had returned home.
General Booth lives the simple life.
he eats no meats, his food staples be-
ing tea and toast, vegetables in sea
son and rice. He sleeps little, has no
recreations and works even when trav-
cling. While immense funds come into
his hands. they are all turned over to
the army, as he requires little for him
self.
This is the warrior Of peace, the
evangelist who breaches in deeds, who
carries the gospel to the poor. Take
him all in all. know Of no more In
spring figure in modern times.

GOLD BRICKS.

If your abode's on Easy street and
troubles out of reach, most all the
fellows that you meet will tell you
you're a peach. They'll tell you that
in all their days they never, never
knew, in all this wilderness of jays,
as smooth a bird as you. While you
have bullion in the keg and rhino in
the jar, they'll come around to pull
your leg and say how smart you are.
They'll glory in your growing fame,
they bow and scrape and fawn; they
will load their babies with your name
and sleep upon your lawn. But
when misfortune comes along, and
iolts you in the neck, and everything
is going wrong, and even hopes a
wreck, and when with Dame Despair
You sup, and have your fill of woe,
your gold brick friends will pass you
up. and say: 81 told you sol" And
then some quiet chap will come, and
prove to be your friend; he'll say:
"When things are on the bum. they're
always sure to mend!" And he will
dry your raining eyes, and guide your
weary feet, and help you once again
to rise-clear back to Easy street.
And you will note that he is one who
sang no servile tunes, when you were
loaded down with mon,' and insolence
and prunes.-Walt Mason in Portland

NEW COINED WORDS.

In a public speech not long ago
Mr.. Winston Churchill alluded to a
"shortfall" in the British revenue.
The Manchester Guardian is inclined
to admire this new word, and notes
a tendency toward the revival of the
compounding power of English. These
examples are given:
People have long grown familiar
with "foreword" for prefaces, though
it is scarcely more than a generation
old. output" was only a technical
term of the iron and coal trades thr-
ty years ago; now it is one of the
hardest worked and most respectable
words in the language. Psychologists
are much interested at present in our
proteid 'intake." Not very long ago
Intake" was dialect word meaning
an inspiration of the breath, the
bringing in of the crop, and a num-
Der of other things Stevenson used
it in one of these meanings-an in
take of the breath-but It has hard
ly yet got into the educated mans vo-
cabulary except in its medical use.
Many such compounds still survive

violated. The Anti-Saloon League has
frequently abandoned in despair its ef-
forts to obtain convictions. The spor-
adic blind tigers are the smallest fac
tors in the situation. The thing that
counts is the number of communities
wherein no attempt is made to stamp
out the traffic. What are we going
to do about this phase?
whether or not we like it, whether
or not we approve it, we are faced by
what is virtually a system of extra
legal local option. with communities
constituting the law as they see fit, or
ignoring it as they see fit.
Nor is it the variety of local option
which prevailed in Atlanta before pro-
hibition became effective. Then the
traffic here. and in other Georgia
cities, returned a revenue commensu-
rate with its exactions, and was regu-
lated and restrained in a model man
ner.
mo such spectacle is offered by
this Observation-Disclosures. In
some respects it resembles nothing so
much as legalized contraband traffic
or elusive piracy, that preys parasite
ike upon the state.
THE man who wants whiskey still
gets it, with little trouble. But the
state gets a negligible fraction of the
'evenue it once commanded from
his source.
These are naked facts. DR.. Brough-
on would be the last man to ask
The Constitution to bury it's head, os-
rich-like, to them and arrive at peace
through hypocrisy"

LONDON IN STATISTICS.

The volume of 500 pages dealing
with the administrative county OF
London contains mass of statistics
which naturally suggest. in connec-
tion with a population of more than
100000 people, the thought of inn
mensity. And this thought will be
deepened when the figures here quot
ed are compared with the cores
ponding statistics of our city. In
| general the figures relate to the year
19OS-9, though in some instances the
facts are not available for a later
year than 1905 or 1907.
The population of Greater London
in 1910 is estimated at 7,537,1S6 In
1907 the number of marriages SOL
emnzed was 40,551.
On January /. 1908, the number of
paupers was 14S,664; vagrants, 1851.
During the year 1862 tons of meat and
foodstuffs, exclusive of 10000 rab-
bits, were seized as unsound.
The extent to which London cares
for the pleasure and creature COM
forts of its people is seen by the sta
tistics of its parks, theaters and pub
lie houses-taverns. At present the
council maintains parks and open
spaces with an area of 5000 acres, the
capital expenditure on which is L.
702,S37 pounds and the annual cost
of maintenance 111,514 pounds. The
city corporations own and maintain
6491 acres and the Metropolitan borg
ough councils 325 acres.
The number of theaters licensed for
the performance of stage plays was
SO, with an approximate seating ac-
commodation of 60,932. In addition
there are 81 music halls with a seat
ing accommodation of 64,S51. In all
there were $50 premises licensed for
public entertainment.
London has 1882 public houses, or
houses licensed to sell wine, spirits
and beer; 1918 beer houses where no
spirits or wine may be sold, and 462
hotels and restaurants.
The total strength of the metropol-
itan police is 1879 and of the city
police 1144 During 1907 57,637 ar
ticles were found in public carriages
and deposited with the metropolitan
police by drivers and conductors. OF
these $4,000 were umbrellas and 274
were watches. The number of per-
sons for trial at the courts of assize
and quarter sessions in London in
1907 was S543. OF these 453 were
acquitted and 1O7 not tried. Four were
sentenced to death. The estimated
net cost of the administration of po-
lice and justice falling on the admin
istratve county in 19O7-S was 2,10O,-
900 pounds.

A WHOLESOME LAW.

The district attorney has issued
warning that proprietors of cigar
stores, near beer joints and amuse-
ment parlors must not allow minors
to play cards or other games OF
chance within their establishments.
To do so is in violation of the state
law and prosecution will follow.
The state law upon this subject is
a wholesome one and the officers will
be recreant indeed if they do not en-
force it. Especially is this true since
Pendleton is a school town and being
such is in duty bound to safeguard
the young men who are of student
age.
There is nothing in the idea that
boy under 21 years of age needs to
seek amusement around haunts that
reek with tobacco smoke and where
card playing furnishes the chief am
usement. Well developed young men
are not turned out by such joints.
Every normal young man should be
in school or he should be at work.
This is true regardless of whether he
was born with "silver spoon in his
mouth" or is of poor parentage. If
he is employed, then the greater por-
ton of his waking hours will be oc-
cupied and he should have no diff
Guilty in finding proper amusement
during the remainder.
A student is more out of place in
an amusement parlor" than is any,
one else The student is in the de-
velopment stage; his character is not
yet formed and he attends school prl-
marily that his character may be so
developed as to make him a good man
and citizen.
Every time a student patronizes an
establishment such as those men
toned above he subtracts from his
store of useful knowledge and he ex-
poses himself to habits that If TAX
Ell up will greatly impair his effi-
cheney, physical and mental, and also
lower his moral standard. Many
young men like to frequent resorts so
as to become sophisticated. But that
is a false conception and dangerous
one. No young man should learn
the ways of the world" until his char
acter is formed. He is then able TO
Judge how much those things are
worth and invariably he will find that
