MUST Be- PREPARED FOR WAR
armament Hasn't Come-Army Re-
serve Plan Not Satisfactory

Washington, Dec. 11.-Although no
reference is made to the necessity
for a larger army, Secretary of War
Lindley NJ. Garrison. in his annual
report to the president made public
today, asserts that the time has not
vet come when nation can wisely
disarm or slacken its efforts for pre-
paredness in case of war. The sec
rotary asserts the present provision
for an army reserve is not working
out WELL and since we must build up
reserve. he has reached the opin-
ion that an act to per,nit the war de-
partment hOnOrably to discharge a
Soldier, when it is satisfied of his pro-
ficiency, with no other obligation on
his part than to return to the colors
in case of war, would be more eff
fective.
AS Secretary Garrison has said sew
eral times in public addresses, he does
not feel that the country at large
takes the pride in its army that it
should. He asserts that he hopes to
see in time a growing sentiment of
increased pride in our army in times
of peace, pride in the army as the
tsained and efficient organization to
which we turn for help in times of
great national calamity. He outlines
the relief work of the army during the
past year, referring especially to the
Dayton flood. the Omaha tornado and
Adirondack forest fires. Reference is
also made in the report to the mag
1ificent work of the army in Panama
and to the efficient patrol maintained
on the Mexican border

:ARTHUR WAS PERSISTENT
BY X. CUNNINGHAM.

I've often thought" said the girl
who likes to talk, that if everybody
in the world had the persistenCy of
cat what wonderful things might be
achieved, | have been moved to this
philosophical state of mind by the
career of Arthur, our alley cat.
Il named her Arthur the first time
| saw her because when | was quite
young there was a boy named Arthur
whom | hated with such a whole soul
ed hatred that even to this day the
very name gives me the creeps Ar
thur was the kind of cat you dislike
violently on sight She was lean and
a notified gray and one eye had
cast and she had the general air of
dissipated vagabond.
Il can't imagine what began the
uplift in Arthur's soul. For some rea-
son she suddenly came to the deter
mination to attain a higher social
sphere-and one day we found her
comfortably disposed on our 500 dav-
export in the living room
and then she sponged the ash dust off
the davenport with gasoline.
That night Arthur mounted the
trells to the upstairs windows and
perched on the sils and sang mourn
fully at each of us in turn. She was
a regular feline soprano, because 9th
erwise she never could have got from
window to window When she war
bled you were overcome with a sense
of shame that you were repulsing her
aged to convey that emotion.
In her broken hearted despair at
our stoniuess she extracted the paper

door the next morning and breakfast

departing, licking her whiskers, and
threw pail n her. which she nimJly
sidestepped

dressing for dinner party, he found

Within the next week Arthur had

STAG FAIL TO MAKE HIM RE-
SPONSlBLE FOR EMPEROR.
HE DEFIES THE PARLIAMENT
Dares It to Pass Measures Providing
for His Dismissal-Zabern Incl

Discussion.

Berlin, Dec. 1l.-Socialist members
OF Parliament have failed in an eff
fort to have passed amendments to
the constitution which would make
the imperial chancellor responsible L.
the house for the acts of the emperor
and providing for MS dismissal on the
demand of the house.
DR.. Won BethmannHolweg. the i'm
perial chancellor, defed Parliament
to pass the amendments, which were
introduced at the opening of the
budget debate. Their fate was set
tied regardless of his attitude when
DR.. Peter Spann of the center party
announced that his party would OPP
lose the amendments and would vote
the budget, not for the chancellor.

The chancellor thereupon declared
the amendments were clear inva.
sion OF the imperial prerogative anC
announced that he had neither pre-
sented his resignation nor did he in
tend to do so as a consequence OF
the vote of noncontidence passed by
the house. This vote" he said. was
not similar to votes of censure in
countries governed purely by parlia-
ments. To the chancellor that vote
merely signitied that he and the inn
perial parliament held different opin-
ions. In Germany the emperor alone
has the right of appointing the i'm
rh1nHnllOp iS ri,
constitutional to attempt to bring
pressure on his majesty, either by
votes of nonconfidence or by the re-
fusal of supplies and the proposal of
amendments to the constitution to
meet his unbendng resistance"
Zabern Incident Brought Up.
The chancellor declared that he
knew the majority of the German ma
ton was unwilling that the emperor's
power should be subjected to Social
list restrictions
Il warn the house" said a Social
list member. against failure to follow
its vote of censure on the govern.
ment with the necessary steps to es-
tablish the Responsibility of parlia-
ment and to clip the wings of the
military in the country. The aroused
popular opinion of the nation is now
behind parliament and will support it
in limiting the monarchcal power by
legislative act. Parliament should
refuse to discuss the budget until its
terms have been accepted"
The responsibility for Zabern Incl
dent having been charged to the
chown prince was the cause of this
latest revolt against the imperial po-
licies.

SENATOR kUUT GETS PRIZE
Peace Premium From Nobel Fund Is
Awarded to New York States
Senior Soon.

Christiana, Norway, Dec. IL
United States Senator Elihu Root of
New York was designated for the No
bel peace prize for 1912.
The award to Senator Root was
made because of his work in the paci-
fication of Cuba and the Philippines,
and for his connection with the settle
ment of the dispute between the
United States and Japan.
The Nobel peace prize is worth
about $4,000 The award was held
up last year, which accounts for the
award for the two years being made
at this time.
