Veteran Soldiers in America and in
England.
From the Columbian.


Another historic difference between
American and British is in the treatment
of the soldiers and sailors who have
fought the battles of their country. Eng
land practically abandonS the old soldier
TO starvation and the workhouse. He gets
a medal. perhaps, but he cannot eat the
medal. The veterans of the American
army and navy. on the other hand. re-
ceive pensions, and are taken care of in
soldiers homes. Comparatively lew Vet
Grams care to accept the hospitality OF
the homes, although comfortable and well
conducted. and make living as best they
can with the aid of the pensions granted
for disability and old age. The pensions
amount to an enormous sum in the aggre-
gate but very little individually The
people bear the burden willingly recog-
nizing that it is fulillment of Abraham
Lncoln's pledge in his second inaugural
to care for those who have borne the
battle, their widows and orphans
The burden will not last long Ten
years hence there will be but few sur
vivors of the men who fought me civil
war, and as the nation grows in power
and prosperity il will honor the more the
memory of those who Offered their lives
for the Union which is the foundation and
pillar Of our national greatness

Militant and Non-Militant Nations.

From the Columbian.
China is not the only example of
nation or state which has paid dearly for
neglecting the military art. In all ages
of the world history has taught the same
lesson. The people hardened to war have
triumphed over those who devoted them
selves wholly to peaceful pursuits The
military machine has rolled like jugger-
Germ was with commerce. luxury and
learning. Sparta vanquished Athens, and
degenerate HellaS was absorbed by Rome
Rome itself fell when the Romans ceased
to be their own defenders. Modern his
tory has witnessed no change in the rela
tive position of militant and non-militant
nations. The great powers of Europe are
keyed up to their highest point OF war
like efficiency because they know and feel
that they cannot otherwise maintain their
prestige and command respect for their
rights. The German kaiser and the late
King Edward have been Listened to with
respect and approval when they declared
themselves champions OF universal peace
because the former had behind him the
most formidable army and the latter the
most formidable navy in the world. With
out that army and that navy their words
would have made but little impression.
War is a terrible evil, but from it's en-
saneuined fields springs forth the flower
Of liberty, and the nation that would be
free must ever be prepared for the sac
rificeS that war entails. Inc millennium
of universal peace will not come at the
touch OF Mr. Carnegie's golden wand.
That 1t will come eventually all right
minded men hope and believe and p. ay.
Meantime it is both right and duty to
follow the injunction of the hard-headed
Puritan warrior to Put your trust in
God and keep your powder dry"

RICHMOND, Va. May 6, 1911.
Not one of the candidates for the
United States senatorial nomination was
mentioned by any OF the members of the
state democratic committee at it's meet
ing here this week. There were thirty
three members in attendance and there
was good deal of talking. yet no one
apparently was Interested enough to call
the name Of his choice for the Senate.
There is some difference of opinion re-
sarding the action of the committee in
calling attention of the Judges of cleo
ton to the language of the primary plan
especially that section which says that
no person shall be allowed to vote save
those who are willing to pledge them
selves to vote for all the nominees Of
the party at the fall election ]. NJ. Cur
It's of Newport News offered a resolution
which would have amended the primary
plan, and this was voted down, the COM
mittee holding that only a convention of
the party could undertake that.
The definition OF what is democrat
oCcaSioned a good deal of talk. The ma
jority of the committee wanted to open
the poles to every white man in the
state who would agree to support the
nominees of the party. regardless Of
former affiliations There was slight OPP
position to this, but the idea is to al
low all white men who desire to do SO to
vote in the primary, agreeing to vote for
the nominees when they go to the polls

A meeting OF the board of education,
the annual review and parade Of the High
School Cadets and the presentation OF two
high school plays might be stated az a
summary Of school activities for the week
just past The spring weather has been
a great announcement for outdoor activf-
ties but a discouragement for the indoor
ones.
The review of the cadets Thursday was
practically the first time that the cap
tains had a chance to size up all or the'f
rival companies. The work on the grass,
though not the first this year, also proved
a good opportunity for them to gauge the
ability of their own companies. AS q
result many captains will be busy In the
next few drill days correcting mistakes
up to as high degree of efficiency as
possible fer the drill this year
The meeting of the board of education
Wednesday was said to be one OF the
shortest and least interesting this year.
The plays at the Eastern and Central
High schools Friday and last evening
were considered to be very successful.
Much praise was given the amateur act
ors of both schools for their work.
The Commissioners have replied to the
board of education's complaint in regard
to closing the Summons and Douglass
schools. The Commissioners formal reply
was to the effect that there Is some DOUBT
about the necessity Of closins the two
schools.
