of peaceful progress. both at home and
in foreign markets. This loss should
be more than made up. 1t would seem,
however. when the orders which were
formerly sent to Germany, Belgium,
France and Great Britain begin to find
their way into the offices of American
manufacturers.
Then. our machinery industry has to
look forward to lessened competition

Hon. Swager Sherley of Kentucky to
the remarks of the Republican howlers
of the National House of Representa-
tives: ave could have delayed the
levying of this tax, we could have de-
layed the bringing in of the bill until
after election, and have deprived you
of any campaign thunder you may be
able to get by virtue of what you will
be pleased to say is an additional bur-
den laid upon the American people.
But, instead of that we realized what
every thinking conservative man in
America realizes, that in a condition
of such world CONFUSION, with credits
impaired as they are, it was the utmost
Importance that the Treasury of the
United States should not only be in a
position to stand any present shock,
but any future shock that might come
| by reason of this tremendous disturb
ance of conditions. We believed that
it was important not to put any great
or strain upon the banks than WAS al
ready placed upon them by this condi-
ton, and 80 believing, we have not
looked to the moneys to the Govern
ment's credit in the banks, but have
sought to obtain by internal revenue

| We go to the country simply with a
proposal to supply the revenues that
have failed through no fault of ours,
and which you would have had to sup
ply if you had been in power; only
you would ha We had a greater failure
Of revenues, because you raised a
greater proportion of your total from
customs duties than we. To the ex-
tent that we have substituted income
taxes and a corporation tax for GUS
toms d6es, to that extent have we
lessened the disarrangement of the
Government finances by virtue of this
world war. Heretofore, II there be
any difference in the attitude that the
two parties would have been in in this

In my opinion the railroad compan-
les are justified in their appeal for
higher rates. The cost of everything
pertaining to living has greatly ad-
yanced during the past few years, as
has also every article used in trade,
construction and transportation. The
reader will do well to read the rail-
ways plea on the first page Of this
paper. 1t is logical, conservative and
%instructing. Just compensation should
go with every business and the public,
/ believe, is in favor of it. Let the
question be understood, and judgment
rendered in accordance with the facts.

A FEW years ago the high tariffites
wanted nothing but the Home Market
for the American producer and manu-
facturer. They desired no truck with
the foreigner, and wanted the tariff
wall built sky-high to that end. We
didn't need the foreigner in our BUSH
ness, you know. Well, the present
wa has cut out our European trade,
and our Republican friends ought to
be happy, but they're not. The all
suficing Home Market doesn't seem
to fill the bill, albeit that detested
t'pauper labor'' is intensely engaged
in throat cutting and cannot compete
with the American working-man.

CRISES IN GREAT LIVES

"Garibaldi," said Cavour us not only
general He is a banner" True as this say
ing was, It becomes almost Joke in view OF
the fact that at the great crisis of Garibaldfs
military career the banner was at the head
of a retreating column.
The retreat, however, was strategic IL
occurred before the battle of Solferino, In
1859, when Garibaldi aided the Italian King
with the French against the Austrians In
accordance with his usual mode of hghting,
Garibaldi had occupied all the farmhouses
in the neighborhood of Castelnedolo. Moth
ing like regular battle was attempted, the
leader knowing too well how his soldiers
fought. corps Of sharpshooters was pushed
forward, ostensibly to harry the Austrians
on their line of march, Suddenly bloody
engagement began The Austrians realized
that they could not gain by frontal attack
and decided on q turning movement Out
from the farmhouses poured the Garibaldini,
fanlxing the Austrian turning corps, fighting
irregularly in the OPEN Additional Austrians
appeared. Back went the struggling Carl
baldini into the farTphouses. Hour after hour
Garabaldi continued these tactics his men
now pouring helter-skelter from the himsy
barricades. now rushing pell-mell back.
At the end of the day Garibaldi found him
self in a critical position. He could not go
telling on his soldiers. To stay where he was
would lay him open to all sorts of danger.
With the calm carelessness of a gentleman
OF leisure he began retreat. There was not
even the suggestion of a defeated army, He
had simply done a days work and left the
Job. II turned out later that by deciding to
retreat instead of risking battle Garibaidi
had made possible the victory of Solferino,
which made nation out of Italy.

Submarines for the Navy

THAT the Navy Department has designed
l. new and distinct submarine, superior In
slze speed and cruising radius to any similar
craft now afloat, Is a matter Of national
graduation. The present warfare on the
seas has amply demonstrated that any navy
must be hopelessly weak which Is not strong
in its submarine fleet. American effort to
keep ahead of the times in the science of
naval design and construction is the promise
of future supremacy.
To urge preparedness for war is not incon-
sistent with condemnng militarism. Mill
tarism is a state of mind. Newer ideals OF
peace prevail in this country, but they Will
not save us from the international madness
of which even the 2oth century can be guilty.
Since we must have a navy, and strong
navy, let 1T be so superior in power-and
economy of cost-as it is possible to make 1t.

In the Name of Humanity

TNENs Of thousands of men, women and
4 little children must die of slow starvation
in war-ravlshed Belgium this winter unless
the people Of the neutral nations spring
instantly to their aid Their harvests were
trampled down by marching armies, the mills
and factories are closed, their homes have
been shattered by shot and shell, and they
wander, ill-clad and hungry on the verge Of
winter, tho wards of the worlds pity.
Ambassador Page cabled yesterday that
q, 100000 a month will be necessary for food
alone. This amount, large as It may seem
In cold figures, will provide only the barest
necessities. Food is needed, not money. In
the words of Mr. Page, There never has been
such dire want in any land in our time"
Philadelphia is the City Of Brotherly Love.
In spite or depression OF business in America
for the past few months, there are many
thousands of our citizens who are fortunate

can hardly pose as generous when Phila-
delphia has subscribed only $4,000 in the
face of the heart-breaking call. Let all
racial distinctions fade away at this time
and each give according to his ability. The
nations now at war cannot help Belgium;
they will have as much as they can do to feed
and clothe their own. If we fail, the heart
of the world has failed
