Al SUBSTITUTE FOR WAR.

Considerable attention is being Civ.
en- to the article by Professor James
of Harvard In the August Mcclure S
on The Moral Equivalent Of War"
After stating with much sympathy the
arguments advanced by the militar-
lists, he sums them up in fear of the
emancipation from the fear regime.
Still he believes in the ultimate reign
OF peace, and he can see that war is
due to finite motives and subject to
prudential checks and criticisms.
In place. of military CONSUMPTION of
the youth, he suggests that there
might be worked out a system of con-
scription "of the whole youthful
population, to form for certain num-
lber Of years a part of the army en-
listed against nature Thus, he
thinks. the injustice might be evened
out, sturdy ideals inculcated and mo
one would remain blind as the llxur-
'ious classes are now blind to mans
real relation to the globe he lives on
BY letting all choose from among the
various hard manual occupations, and
by serving a period in them, the gid
ed youth might get 'the childishness
knocked out of it." And it would tend
to preserve in the community the solid
and manly virtues.

Why Some Towns Grow.

Pocahontas Record: The reason
why some towns grow is because
there are men of push and energy N
it. who are not afraid to spend their
time and money to boom the town.
They erect substantial buildings, Or
ganize stock companies and establish
factories, secure railroads, work up
public improvements and use every
means in their power to locate III
their city. Wherever they tell OF the
advantages of their city, they write
about them in every letter. they SEND
circulars and newspapers to all whom
they think they can get to visit the
city and when any one visits them
treat him so kindly that he falls IN
love with them and their city at
once. 1t is enterprise and everyone
pulling together that makes progress
sive town and don't let the fact es
cape your memory
To hear every person saying some
thing pleasant about its people anu
its interests is the surest, quickest
way to make a town attractive 10
stranger. One of the best ways IN
which to make town attractive Win
that sort of attraction that will draw
other people to it is for every man
and every woman to have pleasant
word for the people and the town
generally. Talk up your town II you
have others come to you. Talk UP
your town II you feel an interest IN
It. and have it's people feel an inter-
est in you. There is no better way 10
do it, And many a time one little
word of unpleasant reference 10
something that does not exactly SUIT
YOU and not particularly concern you
as to that matter will turn some
good mans influence away from your
town and even drive him away. Al
your own Preside, talk up your town.
Among your neighbors talk up your
town. When you come in contact
with strangers, talk up your town.
Talk is the mast potent agency ever
set in motion for helping your town.

there is no such thing as standing
still. Is the editorial page to shrink
in size and Importance, and sink out
of sight? Is the newspaper to cease
to serve as forum, and more parti-
cularly as a guide and critic? Or are
the editorial opinions to permeate the
news and be spread over all the con-
stituent elements of the paper, maxi
ing the whole paper an admixture
of views and news inseparably COM
bined? / frankly say that I do not
think the editorial page will be crowd
ed out-at least not until some agen-
cy better adapted to the work is de-
veloped which is not yet in sight. We
will continue to undergo journalistic
eyolution-the editorial function is
legitimate and must be exercised as
long as the average newspaper reader
is indisposed. unable or untitled to

penings and form the sequence or

Accomplished Under Taft

Philadelphia Press: The chief basis
on which the Republican party has. a
just right to ask for a majority In the
next house is the work done in the
present house under President Taft's
leadership. The leading measures
were proposed by him and in many
cases drawn by his cabinet Last
March. when conservatism and delay
seemed likely to prevent any legisla-
ton, it was President Taft who In.
sisted that the pledges OF the Repub-
lican party platform be fulfilled, and
carried his point. Little would have
been done but for his demand, and but
for his aid the western senators who
now criticize him would have returned
home empty handed from a fruitless
session.

THE PONY EXPRESS.

Perhaps the most picturesque figure
on the old trail was the pony express
rider. The overland stage proved too
slow for mail and express in its flight
from the Missouri and the Pacific.
True. 1t had cut down the months OF
the old OK team to twenty five days.
and still there was clamor that the
east and west be brought closer to-
gether. and 1t was done. The pony
cut the time to ten days.
Those who were personally acquaint-
ed with the famous pony express OF
those days could never forget the In
trepid rider who braved all peril. for

1t was in 1850 that the pony express

The Intention OF the pony express
was to carry letters only and not moro

cided that the safest and easiest mode
OF carrying the mail was to make four
pockets, one In each corner Of the mo.
chlla, covering made of heavy leath-
er for the saddles and generally used
by the expert Mexican and Spanish
riders. The mochila was transferred
from pony to pony and went through
from st. Joseph to San Francisco, the
pockets containing the mail being lock-
ed and opened only at military posts
en- route and at Salt Lake City. These
precious letters were wrapped In oiled
silk to protect them. but even this pre-
caution sometimes failed. Rivers had
