than any other agency is to blame

NE ROrroNIIEss IA.

Of 1877 British warsbtps together with
vessels from every nation possessing
a modern navy, had gathered at
Portsmouth in honor of the kings
coronation. 1t must be admitted that
this sight was an inspiring one The
spirit Of war has been with us yer
since the beginning of the world and
the great feet reviewed by King
George Saturday is the elimination
Of mans efforts along the line Of
destruction. To gaze upon the YES
sells as assembled at Spithead, or
even to read about them, one could
not help but be impressed with the
great power there displayed. 1t is
evident that war between two first
class powers would mean the great
est slaughter of all times. In fact,
It is argued that the sight of such a
warlike fleet, ready for action at
any moment, is one of the greatest
factors in preserving peace. Man is
realizing more and more the horrors
Of war and it is requiring a great and
greater p]rovocation to force him in
to it.
But what kind of a civilization
have we that the greatest cause for
peace is the heavy armament of our
neigLbor? Is it not & confession Of
weakness that we must be ever ready
to blow somebody's head off in order
to prevent him from doing the same
thing to us? After all, as long as
it requires such great fleets and
standing armies to preserve peace We
are but little advanced above the
heather nations of the early centur-
les, except in the inventions that
make warfare more deadly. The
leading powers OF the world to-day
call themselves Christian nations,
yet where is that greatest Of all
Christian principles, the spirit of
blotherly love? The great arma-
ments of the world puts the lie on
our lips every time We profess our
friendly feeling one toward another.
Our friendship is merely in words
as long as We continue to spend mil
lions and millions to be prepared at
a moments notice to strike each
other down. The world, it would
seem, has a great way to go before
it can truthfully be said that we are
Christian nations and love u neigh
bors as ourselves. When that time
comes the greatest argument for
! peace Win not be preparation for

The Horses Prayer

To thee, my master, l offer my prayer: Feed, water and care for me and when the days work is done, provide me with shelter and clean, dry bed. Always be kind to me. Pet me sometimes, that l may serve you the more gladly and learn to love you. Do not jerk the reins, and do not whip me when going up hill, Never strike, beat or kick me when do not understand what you want Watch ne, and if fail to do your- bidding, see if something is not wrong with my har- ness.
 Do not overload me. or hitch me whore water will drip on me, Keep me we'll shod. Examine my teeth when do not eat 1 may have an ulcerated tooth, and that, you know, is very painful Do not tic or check my head in an unnatural position or take away my best defense against flies and mosquitoes by cutting off my mane or tail.
 cannot tell you when am thirsty so give me clean, cool water often, cannot tell you in words when am sick; so watch me, and by signs you may know my condition. Give me all possible shel- ter from the hot sun and put q blanket on me, not when am working, butwhen am standing in the cold Never put frosty bit in my mouth first warm 1t by holding it moment in your hands.
 try to carry you and your burdens without murmur, and wait patiently for ypu lonu hnurg nf tbn day pr uiphf Without the power to choose my shoes or ! path, sometimes fall on the hard pave ments. and must be ready at any mo. ment to lose my life in your servlce.
 And finally, O my master, when my useful strength Is gone, do not turn me out to starve or freeze, or sell mo Go some human brute, to be slowly tortured and starved to death but do thou, my mas ter, take my life in the kindest way, and your God will reward you here and here- after. Amen.-M. Cora Dow.

"JIM'' M DoNALD's FIGHT

Referring to the prospect of Highway Commissioner Macdonald being busted to make way for democrat, the Bridge port Post says: ''The queer part of the fight, so far as Highway Commissioner Macdonald is concerned, that there are some very prominent Democrats work ing for him, and that includes men who are widely known as party leaders. What the capitol frequenters are asking is.whether these men, some of whom are members of the General Assembly, will vote against the governor when the appointment is made" : .4s.+
 The fact that political lines seem to be obliterated in the case of Highway Com missioner MacDonald's supporters. indi- eates that the sensible members of both parties recognize the futility of any ef- fort to find man capable of filling "Jim'' MacDonald's shoes in that par ticular position. It is a growing opin- ion that the office of highway commits sioner, as well as some others, ought not to be political office nor subject to the football rules of the scrambling spells, men.

Boy Coasters Badly Hurt

AS the result of coasting accident in New Milford Friday, two boys, Carlisle Penfeld, IF years old, and George Key holds, years old, are in a critical con- dition from the injuries they received. Penfield is cut about the head and face and in delirious state, while Reynolds is suffering from probable internal in- juries.
 The accident took place on Chicken Hill, steep incline which runs into the town. The boys were on bob sled, Pen6eld lying on his stomach and steer ing with young Reynolds on his back. At the bottom of the hill Penfeld failed to make turn and the sled crashed into a boulder. Reynolds was thrown over the boulder landing on his abdomen on large stone, while Penfield's head struck the boulder.

Fight Over Pensions

After one of the most spirited debates of the session, in which the senators in dulged in frequent clashes bordering on personalities-the measure recently unanimously adopted by the House, ex- pressing the approval of the General Assembly on the proposed bill in Con- gress increasing the pensions of Vet erans of the Mexican, Civil and Spanish wars was passed in the Senate by vote of Is to II. Senators McNeil and Bart lett of Bridgeport voted for the measure as did Senator Judson, Senator Paddock of Bridgeport was absent.
 Senator Donovan of Norwalk opposed the bill strongly. calling to the attention of the Senate the attitude of Congress man Hill on the measure, and arguing that it was an unnecessary increase of expenditure of public funds by several millions of dollars. Senator Judson declared that the attitude of 212 Con- gressmen in favor of the bill ought to be more convincing than that of Congress man Hill.
 The measure was discussed under a suspension of the rules, before effecting which the Senate was rocked with dissension. Senator Donovan claimed that a two- thirds vote was necessary for the suspension of rules and accused Lieut.. Gov Blakeslee, president of the Senate, of unfairness. He was called to order and the debate on the measure proceeded under the suspension rules.
 With the endorsement of both branches of the Legislature the measure will now be forwarded to the Connecticut dele gation at Washington as an expression of the opinion of the State on the mea- sure now before Congress.

FOR E SIGHT

Abraham Lincoln was undoubtedly an emi- nently great man and knew how to run a nation and keep the old ship of state right-side up in the storm. But what work would he have made trying to start fire department in town that thinks it won't burn because it never has?-Con- nectieut Western News.
 In the absence of specifications we don't propose to indulge in any extended exegesis based upon the, situation here presentedE
 If the bustling little town of Canaan, located down where the Housatonic river flows lazily and gracefully and without turbulence down through it's riven chan nels to the sea and where the traveller is always sure of making train connection if he waits long enough, is the town in question, we are sorry.
 If on the other hand Editor Rodemeyer is dealing i'll glittering generalities, if he is simply freeing his system of cer- tain abstract philosophy that nearly every man who thinks is apt to accumu- late about once in so often-if, we say. heiis writing not in the concrete (mean- ing form of expression, not building materiaD we can only express admiration for his subtle wit-and pass on.
 We have all heard of the man who tore down his house in order to put in a bath-tub; of the man who talked through his nose in order to save the wear and tear on his false teeth of the farmer who about II o'clock each morning in having time, gave his toilers in the field plenty of oatmeal water in order that they might not eat so much at dinner time; of the man who never married fo1 fear he might be obliged to spend money on somebody; of the man who thought because he had lived to be 80 he was going 70 live always.
 Now we have added to the illustriOui list men who think that 8 town vii never burn because it never has.
 There are towns that have to be visited by fire and flood in order to be, purgec of their iniquity.
 Canaan is not one of these.
 Meantime we are going to ind ou what the situation is in relation to fire department in Canaan.
 If we learn that The News is taking gentle rap at it's village we may have something to say that will be wortl reading. Eagle
