terests that hope to gain possession
lof the water power sites and hold
them for future use in generating
electricity, thus controlling the in
dustry OF the nation through con-
troll of the power, are appealing to
this state sentiment, in the hope or
dividing the authority and dealing
with each separate group in the
manner in which state legislators
are always handled. The whole
people of the United States are
equally interested In the use OF the
power sites in every state, and on
this ground the group OF federallsts,
headed by President Taft, are maxi
ing their fight for federal control
OF them. II is difficult for corrlp-
tionists to manipulate matters at
Washington without exposure, as
recent events have proven; but in
the states they have their own way.
AS sure as the nation relinqulsnes
to the states authority over the
water power sites, the source of
future electrical energy, which will
operate the factories of the world,
will fall into the hands of a mo-
nopoly, that will grind the public
under the iron heel of an Industrial
the like OF which the
world has never before seen. or else
the nation in desperation will turn
to socialism with all the fearful
of its artificial equali-
lies. The tariff may be attended to
ater. the question of the succession
20 the presidency is of minor i'm
but this conservation issue
IS involved in the fight between
state and national authority over
water power sites.

UNION RESCUE MISSION.

ON April l the Union Rescue Mis-

work at the corner OF Fifth and

found to be much more suitable
than where we worked for line
years and four months on South
Third street.

we are engaged OF caring for The
poor by finding employment for
those able 10 work, finding homes
for children. rescuing the fallen.

needy. holding religious service for
those unable to attend church and
our own regular evening service at
the mission. besides a wide range
OF other charitable work. is too well
known to the people OF Paducah to
need repeating.
During all these years this work
has been supported almost entirely
by private contributions from the
best people OF Paducah, but while
the city has increased In population
the number who have needed help
have more than kept pace. until II
has now boone impossible for us to
supply the needs OF all who apply TO
US and are deserving help.
While II would be impossible for
the work TO exist at all without the
aid 30 generously given up to this
time II has been secured largely by
personal solicitation. but this plan
requires so much time and inter
feres so seriously with the time that
should be given 10 the charity work
that we have decided to make an
appeal for regular contributions.
II 20 men will pledge themselves
to pay us $500 and 25 women will
agree to pay us 800 a month be-
ginning with this month. we on our
part will give our pledge that every
dollar will be used In promoting the
work and the good accomplished
will be increased more than a hun
dred fold.
Who will be the first to respond ?
We have both phones. Old phone

only for what is actually needed to
meet our expenses and the appeals
for help that we are constantly re-

Let us not in these piping times

tors who talk to us of the horrid
cruelties of war, forget that the
strong arm of militarism protected

IL would be shameful, indeed, II en-
lightened Christian nations should
go to war with one another for ma
terial gain; but II Christiandom should
disarm, II would soon find itself at
the mercy of Mohammedan and pag-
an races. How would the peace of
Europe be preserved without a few
ships sent through the Mediterranean
and Aegean seas and to the Dardan-
elles, occasionally? What would be
