1t would seem that there Is some
thing wrong with the lunacy laws
of the States as developed IN the
notorious Thaw case. There ought
not TO be any reason why an escaped
lunatic should not be brought back
without any interference. no matter
where he may have run to, or who
he may be. He is legally insane
until he is discharged as cured from
the institution where he is commit
ted If he is an insane criminal ne
should be returned with no more
trouble than any other criminal
But of course-as in the IhaW
case-money seems to make al
ference.

Congressman Ben Johnson has
been stirring up the animals" at
Washington almost ever since he has
been there. but lately in more
radical way. He has been trying
for some time to uproot a munic-
ipal graft and establish tax me-
dunn of fairness between theGovern-
ment and Washington property
owners. by which the latter shall
bear their reasonable share. Lately
Mr.. Johnson's amendment in this
matter has been adopted. The
Washington papers admit that his
amendment will save between two
millions and three millions of dol
lars a year OF the peoples money
which heretofore has been unjustly
handed out to the residents of the
city OF Washington In the way of
paying one-half of their taxes. thus
increasing the taxes of the people in
Kentucky and the other States. But
they are fighting him just the same.

Big Contracts Placed BY

GOOD times ARE NOW UPON US
Declares Schwab-Steel Mag.
nat Cancelled a Big Sub
marine Contract.
KANSAS CITY Is HELPED MUCH

New York, Dec. 24.--The nations
of Europe have placed contracts in
the United States for more than
$500, 100000 worth of supplies
since the beginning of the war, ac-
cording to Charles NJ. Schwab, presi-
dent of the Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration, who returned here to-day
from England aboard the steamship
Lusitania. Mr.. Schwab predicted
that for this reason the United
States was now at the threshold of
the greatest period of prosperity it
has seen in many years"
Mr.. Schwab, who sailed for Eng
land less than a month ago, admit
| ted that the object of his trip was
to cancel provisional contracts he
had made with the British Govern
ment for the building of submarines.
This he had done, he said, after hav-
ing been advised by Secretary of
State Bryan that for an American
concern to supply submarines to any
I
of the belligerent nations would be
violation both in letter and in
spirit of the neutrality of the United
States
The contracts which he had given
up. ne said, We're worth more than
$4,000, 200, but he had been able
to secure while abroad contracts for
the supply of various munitions of
war. although he declined to say
with what nation they had been
negotiated.
The next big problem that the
United States will have to face"
said Mr.. Schwab, will be the devel-
opment of transportation facilities
in order to handle tremendous in
crease in manufacturing and COM
mercial enterprises.
The period of prosperity that /
predicted on my last return from
Europe is about on us. The con-
tracts placed with American manu-
featuring concerns by Europe call
for delivery within the year and /
look to see big revival of business
in every line"

Kansas City Helped.
Kansas City. Mo-, Dec. 26-Kan-
sas City has reaped several million
dollars from the warning European
countries by supplying them horses
and mules and provisions and shoes
for their soldiers, according to fig
ures announced by the Commercial
Club to-day. These show that $5,-
100000 worth of horses and mules
have been marketed through here to
the British Government. One
manufacturer alone supplied half
million pairs of shoes to the same
market.
The exports of iifty-two flour
mills in this district outside Kansas
City have been $4,000 barrels this
year, compared with $4,000 barrels
last year, due chiefly to the big
foreign demand since the war began.

There, is considerable comment
among people and newspapers as to
whether or not Christianity has
proven failure in its influence over
the warning European nations.
Christianity is essentially a plan Of
peace. The ringing note at our So
yiour's birth was Peace on earth;
good will to men," 1t is personal
affair of the heart and deals partic-
ularly with individuals. 1t promises
nothing only as the human heart
surrenders to it's blessed influence.
The European war is the spirit of
Iegalized wholesale murder running
rampant. 1t has no sanction from
any scriptural quotation. The heads
of the nations are to blame. In
their individual cases Christianity
fails to prevail. but the Ark of the
Covenant still stands like the immu-
table wall of Eternity.
