The country, l am thankful to say, Is
Mt peace with all the world, and many
happy manifestations multiply about US
of a growing cordially and sense Of
community Of interest among the ma
tons, foreshadowing al age OF settled
peace and good will. More and more
readily each decade do the nations
manifest their willingness to bind them
selves by solemn treaty to the proc
esses Of peace, the processes Of frank
ness and fair concession. So far the
United States has stood at the front Of
such negotiations. She will, / earnest

fresh proof If her sincere adherence to
the cause If international friendship

In addition to these 1t has been the
privilege OF the department Of state to
gain the assent, in principle, Of no less
than thirty-one nations, representing

world. to the negotiation of treaties by
which it shall be agreed that whenever

And yet the farmer does not stand
upon the same footing with the fores-
ter and the miner in the market of

sons. Nature determines how long he
must wait for his crops and will not
be hurried In her processes. He may
give his note. but the season Of its
maturity depends upon the season
when his crop natures and lies at the
gates Of the market where his prod

gives Is of a character not known In

1t might be on the counter Of the

government is seeking to assist as

PRIMARY NOMINATIONS
FOR THE PRESIDENCY.

urge the prompt enactment
of legislation which will provide
for primary elections through
out the country at which the
voters of the several parties may
choose their nominees for the
presidency without the interven-
ton OF nominating conventions.
venture the suggestion that this
legislation should provide for the
retention of party conventions,
but only for the purpose of de-
claring and accepting the ver-
dict of the primaries and formu-
lating the platforms of the par
ties, and | suggest that these
conventions should consist not
of delegates chosen for this sim
gle purpose, but of the nominees
for congress-, the nominees for
vacant seats in the senate Of the
United States, the senators
whose terms have not yet closed,
the national committees and the
candidates for the presidency
themselves, in order that plat
forms may be framed by those
responsible to the people for car
ryine them into effect.

PRESIDENT MAKES KNOWN
HIS PHILIPPINE POLICY.

President Wilson's policy to-
ward the Philippine islands is
made clear in his message. He
urges the development Of tho
Philippines, always keeping in
view ultimate Independence Of
the islanders. While he does not
believe they are ready for self
government today he believes
that eventually they will be. He
points out Improvement that has
recently been made by calling
attention to the fact that more
natives have been appointed on
the Philippine commission than
was the case previously.

the Chattanooga and Tennessee River
Power company. Many serious OBJ
stacles to navigation have been for
ever obliterated by increase In depth
Of water for many miles above the
dam.
The project is peculiar in that IL Is
the first instance where a private COM

dam across a navigable river, where
river improvement and power develop

feet long inside the gates. The lower
gates are ifty-nine feet high. Each
gate weighs 100 tons. The dam Il 100
