PEACE DA
Today is Peace Day.

lCdng N cav Lay
May 1S, 1899, the first peace con
fernce' was opened at the Hague
Since that time the movement for uni
versal peace has made great strides
and has been taken lp in some form
to some extent, by every civilized ma
ton of the world
The latest method Of promoting ire
clDse of peace is through instructions
in the rublic schools. The movement is
fostered by the American sofool Peace
I.eag, e. L. j. Abbott is p, resident Of
the Oklahoma branch OF he American
Lgasue. He has addressed the follow
ins letter to The Press
Edmond, Okla, May IA, 1912.
May 18th is Peace Day. 1t was on
this day in 1899 that the first peace
conference was opened at The Hague.
We are all aware of the great strides
the universal peace movement has
made since then A permanent court
of arbitration has been established; a
world parliment meets every eight
years at The Hague; capitol in
whic hto carry on these activities has
been erected-it is known as the Pal
ace of Peace Now when nations fall
out they look to The Hague instead of
to arms to settle the difficulty.
And why not? Here in the United
States we have forty-eight states, sep
arate and distinct for the most par.
Often they do not agree, but we have
no armed frontier, neither do we rush
to war to settle our difficulties. We
have courts in which we have suffi
cient confidence on which we rely to
adjust our disputes after the cause has
been joined. The British Dominions
have several governments of like char
acter-Canada, Australia. New leland
and South Africa, and the very
strength of the Germa nempire is be-
cause the states of which it is compos-
ed no longer fight each other
The reason now address you is to
request tha tat such time in the near
future you point out in your valuable
publication the significance of Peace
Day and what has already been accom-
plished by the universal peace move
ment. 1t was realized by the leadets
of the second conference-th of 1907
that to attain universal peace senti-
ment and public opinion must be be-
hind the movement as we'll as as reas-
on. The American School Peace Lea
que was the result 1t is confidently be-
lieved that if war is presented in its
proper form to the mind of the youth
of all nations that by the time the
fourth conference meets in 1928 that
war between civilized states will be
almost as impossible as war between
Oklahoma and Kansas. For when war
is once stripped of its glamour and
false ideals it will cease to exist.
1t seems almost an impossible task
to stop war, but it is not at all inn
possible i fthe leaders of thought in
each community will do their part.
Will you use your influence by say
ing word for Universal Peace ON this
occasion?
Very truly,
L. ! ABBOTT.

came for pushing it, and for the rails

simply showed under with business

some came to the front, as they al

Card from Secretary Hepit

To the Editor of The Bryan Eagle:
| was astonished tonight to read the
editorial comment upon my article in
today's Eagle, and especially the ref,
erence to the Brazos County Fair AS.
ISOLATION. So, far as the Aero Club is
concerned, that club held meeting
today and its statement, was furnished
The Eagle, but am told it was too
late. for. today's issue. That statement
shows for itself how much graft
there was. for anyone. Nearly all Of
the expenses going to The Eagle, it Isl
the. only one who can take that sting
As for the fain association, Mr.. Gam
mill and myself are the most inter-
ested, as We have paid out over $4,000
(the larger share to The Eagle) and
have never received q dollar from any
one. except $4,000 from Miss Marion

Everybody is requested to read the
card of Mr.. L. M. Hewitt elsewhere in
this paper. The editor of The Eagle
feels that he was fully justified by
the facts and circumstances for all
that has been said in this paper in
regard to the matters at issue, and has
no apology or explanation to make,
and no comment except that it is re-
grettable that Mr.. Hewit's statement
was not made earlier. The facts, so
far as 1t is possible to ascertain them,
are now before the public, and each
one can form or revise his opinion as
to the merits Of the case, always re-
membering that charity thinketh no
evil"

|OH|O CONSTITUTIONAL
CONVENTION OPENS

Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 9.-The one
hundred and nineteen delegates Sc
lected at the November election to
frame a new constitution for the state
of Ohio assembled today to organize
in preparation for the important task
before them. The preliminary work of
the clerks and committees will &C.
cupy considerable time, and it will
probably be the end of this month be-
fore the real business of the conven-
ton is taken up. 1t is expected that
four or five months, perhaps more,
will be required to complete the con-
stitution.
Three big issues will occupy much
of the attention of the convention.
These are liquor legislation, taxation
and the initiative and referendum
The last mentioned probably will be
subjected to an even more severe
fire than either of the other two ow-
ing to tn feeling that has already been
manifested by both sides. y
determined effort will be made
to get the liquor question out of the
way in advance of the other important
matters that will come before the con-
vention. The course that will be pur,
sued in regard to the liquor question
can not be forecasted accurately.
When the constitutional delegates
were elected in November there were
few candidates who pledged them
selves on either side, and in some
counties the voters found it impossi.
BILE to indicate, their. choice OF dele
gate with the liquor issue in mind.
Wayne B. Wheeler, superintendent
OF the State Anti-Saloon League, as.
serts that the majority OF the dele
gates favors the temperance causv
The majority, he asserts, will oppose,
any, submission Of the liquor question
which will destroy existing temper
ance laws or take away from the gen.
eral assembly its present power to
prohibit the liquor traffic.
Sixty.one of the one hundred and
nineteen delegates are pledged indwri.-
ing for the initiative and referendum
with the following percentages: Not
more than u percent of the electors
for the submission of constitutional
amendments; not more than 10 per
cent 'cr the submission of other ini-
tiativo measures, and not more than
q rer cert for referendum petitions.
Several % TIE delegates are pledged
- ~ principles of the initiative and
referen ium without psecifc percent
tages. Il
The taxation problem promises to
be a bothers0me one for the conven-
ton to solve. Many students of the
subject of taxation have been trying
for years to provide for the ella ssifica-
ton of property for purposes of taxa
tion. The matter came up during the
last constitutional convention, and
after extended discussion and many
compromises it was left in substan-
TALLY its old form. .i e!
