HATRED OF WAR.
But the recollection of all this fighting, con-
tirued the ambassador. gives me little pleas
ure: and there would indeed be no pleasure if
thought such commemorations tended to breed
a love of war. May we not rather regret that
all this fighting had been thought needful" p"
Courage has been shown. but who ever doubted
that either Frenchmen or -.nglshmen, whether
of colonial or of British stock were good fight
ers? Perhaps the Indians showed the greatest
courage and endurance of all
They had TO face not only death but the
prospect of horrible tortures at the hands If
Indian enemies. Most of all. this fighting might
have been avoided by larger and more Chris
tan craftsmanship; and the moral would like
TO see drawn from these commemorations of
wars would be the avoidance of such methods in
the future. No renewal of strife need be feared
among the three nations that now Joined
United States are all linked by what / believe

remembered only 10 forget. But it was for thus
generation to strive that neither should be fight

ing, the speaker said:
Let us appeal to the great ones of the earth

we have here in the person of President Taft, to
