CURRENT COMMENT
Stop. the War Talk.

II war between this country and any
| foreign power were actually sought, no
better persuasives could be devised than
the scare stories against which Secreta-
ries Bryan and Daniels have been COM
PEELED to caution certain editors and cor
respondents. In any question between
races, mems prejudices are at best too
prompt, their passions too hot. To fan
the embers of international resentment
and distrust is grave crime against So
ciety. Liberty of the press cannot be
stretched to cover lies and calls to
violence. No wonder Secretary Daniels
indignp tion waxed hot when he saw the
cruiser Maryland on an ordinary test run
reported as stripped for action, ready for
war, and sent to San Francisco at top
speed.
Not much better than these irrespon-
sible provisions are the remark too oft
en- heard in cooler and less mercenary
circles; references to the war that must
come" the war "of manifest destiny"
and what not. Unless the Mohammedan
fatalists are right, unless we are swarm
ing puppets in CHASTITY game, no war
can rise through an impersonal necessity,
nor otherwise than by mems own will
aforethought. Between man and man,
between nation and nation, ii is a mark
OF good sense to keep cool, to see
straight, to say what shall and shall not
happen. Inviting war by forecast is but
social arson.-Boston Herald.

Bennington Battlefield.

| New York and Vermont We're almost
| in a state of actual war before the out
break of the Revolution, and although
that particular controversy ended with
the admission OF Vermont to the union,
it would seem that an important in
cident of the Revolutionary war was
destined to serve as the basis of an un-
ending dispute between the two states.
There is no reasonable doubt that Gem
eral John Stark and the men who fought
under him always believed that it was
at Bennington that they defeated the
Hessians and made certain the utter
failure of Burgoyne's campaign. There
is also no question that the engagement
has been known to history, and will
continue to be known. as the battle of
bennington, and Bennington is in ver-
mont. But New Workers have long in
sisted that, although Bennington is I'M
deniably in the neighboring state of
Vermont, the battle of Bennington was
fought somewhere else. SO insistent
have the people of the Empire state be-
come on this point-that is. such of
them as care anything at all about the
the New York legislature
at its last session appropriated S250,000
for acquiring and preserving that por-
ton of Rensselaer, county on which the
claim is made that the battle was
fought, or, at any rate, a part of it.
Governor Sulzer has signed the bill, and,
not content with giving it his approval,
has added memorandum which the de-
scendents of the Green Mountain boys
will be fully justified in considering not |
only as unfair, but as decidedly "rub.
bing it in The governor settles the |
question to his own satisfaction in this |
way: Our sister state of Vermont has |
given much prominence to the part in
his battle taken by its citizens and /
which occurred upon its territory. With I
enterprise it has given to |
he land within its borders upon which /
part of the battle was fought and to |
hose who participated in the battle such |
prominence that many of our citizens /
ave been misbd into the belief that
he battle of Bennington was fought 1
ntirely upon Vermont soil and not upon
he soil of the state of New York,
whereas the fact of history is that the n
important part of that battle was
ought on the land provided to be pur-
hased by this bill in Walloomsac valley Il
n Rensselaer, county"

iempshire. talking about "the fight at

DISPLAY THE STARS AND STRIPES

One way in which we can honor the
nations soldiers and sailors tomorrow
is by displaying the flag for which they
fought. There is nothing which so stirs
the veteran as the sight of the loved
stars and stripes waving proudly over
school house, public building and private
residences or occupying some other fit
ting position. The sight appeals to the
veterans not alone because the flag is
near to them but because the displaying
of the grand old emblem betokens a
spirit of patriotism among the younger
generation who are coming up to APP
preciate the blessings which the flag
typifies. Moreover, the sight of the
stars and stripes does us all a certain
amount of good, as it reawakens
thoughts of that which the flag signi-
fees. Therefore, let there be general
effort everywhere to display the ma
tional emblem from school house. pub
lie building and private residence. Let
II attract the eye from any dignifed pc
sition. We can scarcely see too much
of the emblem which Congress adopted
officially 1875 years ago the fourteenth !
of the coming month.

With lips berouged, forms tightly laced,
These peeresses of mani

The falling of the Frisco lines into
the hands of receivers comes at about
the psychological moment to aid toward
that five per cent. raise in rates which
the railroads are asking; but the st.
Louis & San Francisco railroad has, per-
haps, other things than too small rates
to account for its misfortune, notably
the loading of itself down with sub
salaries which did not pay. 1t has been
determined by other railroad systems,
too, that it isn't good policy to acquire
more than they can comfortably as
simulate If they bear this fact in mind,
the railroads will run less chance Of
falling into the hands of receivers.
