she could do the other day with Il
city government that held up her
claim for damage TO property through
the overlooking OF a sewer.
She tied up the City hall with at
tachments, tied up the police station
with attachments. tied up the water
department and the street department
and every other thing about depart
ments with the same manner OF legal
documents until the city officials threw
up their hands and were humbled be-
fore her.
Then she agreed TO let the garbage
still continue TO be removed, and the
city horses came forth from the pri-

them and the typewriters in the city
building get to clicking again, after
Mayor Daniel W. Badger had passed
out his personal check Of $4,000, as
bondsman for the city to insure the

the fame OF the great ones equal in

for the American people that stands

as a matter Of fact, their protection

the spectacle OF a man arrested on the

II is easy enough after a war has
been fought TO prove the uselessness
OF II. 1t has often been shown how
the difference between the north and
the south might have been adjusted
with such terrible waste OF life and
treasure. Grant that within the &C.
vices Of political expediency these
preventions were possible. the fact
still remains that the wars were
fought. that great moral faults were
purged, and the God Of battles en-
forced his ancient law OF eye for eye
and drop Of blood for drop OF blood
Children are always bearing the
faults OF their fathers, and the men
and women Of go to So poured out
of their own veins and out of their
own souls an equal portion OF blood
and misery that their fathers drew
from the veins OF an enslaved race
No moral debts long remain unpaid
What II the purging was drastic
and the throes suffered by the war
ring elements brought II staggering
to Its knees, was not the cleansing
complete? The nation stands today
the stronger and the sweeter for that
conflict. For II was not merely the
quarrelsome distemper OF war that az
fiicted the people. but a score OF dis.
eases; not human slavery alone. but
factional jealousy. greed. selfishness
state disagreement and federal
abuses. How vastly these have been
eliminated can be appreciated only
by a study OF the injustices of that
ante-bellum period. The nation in
that memorable struggle was expected
by cynical observers in Europe 10
crumble and fall. But these observers
failed utterly to grasp the Significance
Of the struggle that was being fought
for national purity and national unity.
Instead Of perceiving a giant rending
himself. as they thought. they were
watching a giant wrestling with the
evil that was within him.
AS the day OF that conflict ever re-
cedes, and the din grows less stri.
dent to the ear, its better significance
makes itself felt. The broad page OF
history teaches lesson that partici.
patton In the actual war itself might
not have taught. II any soldiers stood
In the trenches unmindful OF the sig.
nificance of the struggles In which he
was a part. he is not unmindful now
as he measures his step to the beat of
the muffled drum today. For time has
shown all wherein lay the universal
meaning OF that conflict. The nation
was being bled Of its distempers. even
through his veins. And Il rose IN.
weakened and saddened. but with the
courage Of the victor and the resolu.
ton OF the chastened.
