new year the writer says, let 1t be
festival of renewed affection, for
giveness and peace-a good day on
which to set aside the little an
imosities, envies and jealousies that
mar the daily life.
Resolve in the new year to live on
higher ground IN a more healtAful
and happier atmosphere, rejoicing in
the good fortune of others even if it
be denied to ourselves, realizing tat
while some must win and some must
lose, and some must rise while others
fall, all must suffer, in the end, who
sin.
Make this the happiest of all New
Years by believing sincerely in the
fellowship of men, the virtue of wo-
men, and the goodness Of God.
What beautiful thought. Only that
we could get to the point Of rejoicing
in the good fortune of others. 1t toe
often happens that we ratneT TeJoIce
in the downfall of others. Why is it
so? l have often wondered. Can t
explain. Do we really believe in the
fellowship of men? Do we believe in
the virtue of women and the goodness
of God? Then let US manifest it in
our dealings and in our conversation
and the words that proceed out OF our
mouths. I sometimes conclude that
many of us forget the statement writ
by st. Matthew But say unto you,
That every idle word that men shall
speak, they Shall give account thereof
in the day of judgment. And that
many times they do like it was said
of Job: Therefore doth Job open
his mouth in vain: he multiplieth
words without kno~,eAge."

| was reading in this same Leslie 5
Weekly on this same editorial page
another little article headed "The
Plain Truth. in which the writer
says: Tee. .ol2Ier. A correspondent
asks if it is true that President
Wilson is Prohioitionest The pres
ideat is undoubtedly friendly to the
temperance cause. His views on
Prohibition were given by one Of ais
closest friends during the prcsidcn ,ial
canvass, Nj. Dudley Eield Maione, Of
New York, who now holds an import
ant Office under the administration. IN
is address before the American Wine
Growers association, last February,
Mr.. Malone stated that Mr.. Wilson oc-
casionally enjoyed Little Scotch
whiskey and that the president in
reply to a question as to whether ne
was prohibitionist had answered that
Prohibition had no place in politics,
bu> that it belonged to economic and
social questions, for every man sf",''4
live according to his own c"n.H'r0,
sense and his own judgment We
believe there is one Prohibitionist in
the presidents cabinet, tae travelling
gentleman who advertises grape juice,
and makes money talk
Well, l am inclined to agree With
Mr.. President Wilson, and some
times rather enjoy a good Scotch high
ball myself. And l have always ad-
vocated the doctrine that every man
should be permitted to live according
to his own common sense and his
own judgment and so long as | did not
interfere with tie rights CT the proper
ty or the happiness Of my neighbor
should be permitted to live according
to my own common sense and my own
judgment, but the trouble with this
modern day regulations and laws they
are trying to make me live according
to the Judgment will not say COM
mon sense-of some fanatic on the
subject and want to regulate my con-
duct and take away from me my per-
sonal liberties and right to exercise
my common sense and judgment and
to regulate my actions by the judg-
ment of some one else. But I'll be glad
if taey do not interfere any more.

lndemnities of Civil War.

The American civil war brought
about a strange condition in the mat
ter of war indemnities. AS a result of
the naval activities of the south, Eng
land, a nation which had no part in
the war, was compelled to pay an
indemnity of over s19,OO0O0O to the
United States. This was because of an
indirect participation in the destruc-
tion of the American merchant marine.
When the confederate states found
themselves actually at war with the
north they were under the enormous
handicap of having to fight without a
vestige of a navy. The powerful navy
of the federal government promptly
blockaded the whole seacOast of the
south and made the importation of
supplies difficult and hazardous. JEFF
fersOn Davis saw that if the south
was to last any time it must have a
navy of some sort. Besides pushing
work on the few men-of-war which
were in course of construction in the
southern shipyards, he issued letters
of barque to all vessels which wished

WHAT INDEMNITY WILL LEVIED?
COST Of WAR RECALLS OTHERS

to become privateers under the Con
federate flag.
Davis plan was to retaliate for the
blockade of the south by preying on
the American merchant marine. AT
the outbreak of the war a large num-
Der of the finests hips in the world
were sailing under the American flag.
The chance for prizes was so rich that
many English sea captains hurried to
Join the ranks of the privateers. Not
only were vessels designed to prey on
American commerce built, equipped,
outfitted and manned in English ports,
but they used these as headquarters
from which to carry on their opera
tiOns. Before the war was over, the
fleet of privateers had become so large
that the American merchant marine
was practically swept from the sea.
The three worst offenders were the
Alabama, the Florida and the Shenan-
doah. In all 1863 vessels were destroy
ed or captured by privateers hailins
from England.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1914-11-05
Strong Protests Made.

The United States made strong pro
tests to England against this viola
ton of neutrality, but they were ignor-
ed. The Civil war seemed to be all
the trouble that could be taken care of
at once. so that England for the time
went unpunished. As soon as the war
was ended, the United States put in a
claim for a payment of something Ov-
er $l9.0O0,O0O damages to the owners
of ships and cargoes destroyed by the
English privateerS. At first England
refused to consider the matter, and it
even appeared that hostiities might
break out. Fortunately this was avert
ed. The affair dragged along for a
period of twenty years. Finally, in
1885, England paid over the whole sum
demanded. AS far as possible it was
distributed to the persons who had
owned the lost vessels. In this way a
number of families which had been
made bankrupt by the war were sud
denly restored to a position of wealth.
Supposedly neutral nations are now
much more careful about observing
their neutrality. Such an indemnity
as that paid by England will probably
never be necessary again.
Prussia. since her rise to power,
has always insisted on a course of un-
relenting punishment for the victims
of her arms. This was shown in the
Franco-Prussian war by the terrible
tax mentioned above, as well as in
other conflicts. In the Seven Weeks
War in 1866, Prussia took the field
against her present ally, Austria. Prus-
sia was then the greatest of the Ger
man states outside of Austria, and had
ambitions to become the ruling power
among the Teutonic people. The small
er German states, realizing that the de-
feat of Austria would mean the loss
of their independence, took sides with
the Hapsburgs.
After a brief campaign Austria was
entirely subdued. BY way of indemnity
Prussia annexed Hanover, the Elbe
duchies, and the celebrates of Hesse,
Nassau and Frankfort The old North
German confederation was also bro
ken up and a new one organized with
Prussia actually in control. This great
addition of territory made possible
the present German empire, as pro-

When Erasmus described war as
''the malady of princes he was not
so accurate as would at first appear. IL
NAV be the princes who are i'll, but
it is the people who suffer the cohse-
uuences and foot the bills. The cost OF
the present war has been estimated
many times, but when 1t Is over the
losers will face a further stupendous
outlay in the indemnities OF money
and land which will be eXacted from
them.
AT the end of the Franco Prussian
war in 1871. Bismarck demanded an
indemnity which staggered the world.
Nothing of the sort had been dreamed
of before. Not only did France lose
Alsace and Lorraine, two of her best
provinces, but she had to pay in cash
the stupendous sum of $1,000, 900 900
francs, or $1,0OO,0O0, 600. This vast
sum of money was obtained only by
the loyalty of the French people who
in thousands of cases gave up their
jewelry and siverware to help make
up the amount. The lost territory and
hardships caused by the huge levy
have never been forgotten. The de-
feat of the kaiser will mean that
France will ask for a return of both.
Should she ask for interest on the
81 goo. 100000 for forty-four years, it
would make an almost impossible sum.
The eXacting of a tribute in money
or land, from a defeated enemy, is as
old as war itself, and there are num-
Der of interesting examples in recent
times. When the American colonies
achieved their independence they won
the ownership of their own territory
as the result of military success. The
biggest indemnity ever obtained by
the United States, however was that
following the war with Mexico, in
1S47. The decisive victory won by the
United States resulted in Mexico Civ
ing up all claims to territory north of
the Rio Grande
No cash indemnity was obtained
from Spain after the Spanish-Ameri-
can war, but besides the freedom Of
Cuba this country obtained Porto Rico
and Guam outright and the right to
buy the Philippine islands for $4,000
