I2.77S.3O4, less than one-fourth were

called the boys of OF"
What a slaughter of young manhood,
the flower of our country, the hope and
treasure of our hearts and homes War
takes the httest in body, mind and spirit
and leaves the less fit at home to pro-
pagate the~race. 1t is recorded that the
average stature OF Freshmen decreased
an inch after the close of the Napoleon
ic wars.
Peace means prosperity; and the sun
never shone on land which has seen
such wonderful development and pros
perity as we have enjoyed since the blue
and the gray clasped hands and the
north and south were reconciled. Let
us not forget that might never makes
till they are settled right Differences
will ever arise between men and between
nations, but we are all conscious that the
right and wrong, the justice and equity
of any contention, whether between in
dividuals or nations can never be deter
mined by physical means, by the arbi-
trament of the sword, but rather by get
ting together and talking it over in a
fair and friendly spirit. The Lord is
not always on the side of the heaviest
battalions. Napoleon said He was and
St. Helena was the answer.
Nearly 1000 years have passed since
over the plains of Bethlehem the angels
sang to world dominated by the sword
peace on earth, good will among
men," the advent of the Prince of
Peace, the hope of the world.
"Slow rise the souls of men up from
the dark
The murky dark of self and sin and
care
Slow comes that perfect manhood's
morn whose spark
Is caught from God and famed by faith
and prayer"
Aye slowly they rise, but they rise.
More and more the nations are referring
their differences to peaceful arbitration
where calmly and dispassionately JUS
tce and equity may be established. And
it remains for us by thought and feeling
in spirit and in truth, by word and deed,
TO hasten the day when nations shall
learn war no more, when the millions
of money for which we are now taxed
to provide armament which is soon OBJ
solete, may not be required at our hands,
or may be used for public improvement
and the betterment OF the conditions
of our common life: When, indeed,
Swords shall be beaten into plowshares
and spears into pruning hooks" Slow
" up the corridors of time comes a
beautiful figure in robes of white, in her
hand an olive branch and behind her
the standard bearers of all nations keep
ing step to the music of their own voices
singing the grand anthem of universal
peace.
We here dedicate this monument TO
our patriot soldiers dead to the patriot
soldiers living. 100 Of whom are joining
the silent majority every day; to the
eternal principles of popular govern
ment which they established and to
which we here dedicate ourselves that
this Government OF the people, by the
people and for the people shall not per-
sh from the earth"
And may Almighty God in whom we
trust add His benediction.

SETTLERS GAIN TIME.

A bill granting homestcaders on ir.
rigation projects twenty years instead
of ten in which to pay for their land
and water rights has been favorably
reported by the house irrigation con-
mittee. This should prove a great re-
lief to homesteadcrs. 1t was colossal
folly for the government to give the
settlers only ten years in which TO
transform the desert into garden and
TO pay all charges for land, water, cap
ital, interest and living expenses.
Older nations would have looked
upon the task of reclaiming the desert
as matter of several generations or
even Of century. 1t was American
optimism that made the first advocates
of reclamation believe that all irrlga-
tion projects could pay for themselves
and sustain families on the revenue de-
rived in ten years.
A mistake was made in calculating
the cost of government irrigation prof.
ects. They proved more expensive than
had been anticipated, and the settlers,
of course, were required TO make up the
difference by paying higher rates for
their water rights.
A law conceding twenty years will
be met with acclaim. 1t will permit the
original settlers to retain their lands
instead of being compelled to abandon
them after having done all the pioneer
work

TREATY THAT FAILED.

of which has just been given to the
public, is intensely interesting Just at
the present moment. The. document in
question was signed at Vera Cruz in
1859 by Robert M. McClane for the
United States and by NJ. Oeampo for
Mexico. Under its terms this country
was authorized to "intervene in sup
port Of its own treaty rights and the
security Of its own citizens whenever
Mexico may be unable TO guarantee the
same without incurring the obligation
or necessity Of general intervention
in the domestic affairs of that coun-
try
Minister McClane warned Lewis Cass.

treaty was ratified further anarchy
would exist in Mexico. necessitating in
tervention. Owing to the excitement

until the present time. The Mexican

that health and not wealth comes first
in the long category Of human desires;
that the lot of the man in youth or
middle age who goes forth to his daily
toll in full possession of his physical
powers is more desirable than the LOT
of the man of wealth who. tortured by
disease, finds that gold does not bring
health or happiness, and sinks into an
early grave.
The aggregate wealth of the Van
derbilt family is constantly increasing,
but the stock is deteriorating from the
physical point OF view. Cornelius, the
boatman, who laid the foundation OF
the fortune, as the result of active out
of-door life in his youth, lived to be
So years old and enjoyed good health
during his more than four score years;
William H., who inherited the bulk OF
his father estate, failed TO reach
the allotted three score and ten and
answered the final call at the age of 6l;
Cornelius. eldest son of William H.,
died at the age of %. and George, who
succumbed to appendicitis IN Washing
ton last week. passed away at the com
paratively early age OF 30.
The cou-,ry is an undoubtcd loser by
the sudden removal from active life OF
George Vanderbilt. He was man Of
studious habits and used his great
wealth to secure the happiness of 9th
ers as we'll as himself While the Eng
lish system of holding vast tracts of

Americans, yet due credit must be Civ
en- George Vanderbilt for the great
work he accomplished on his Biltmore
estate IN North Carolina. He was
model landlord and the sincerity with
which he is mourned by his tenants is
proof that the money laid out in model
villages and the like was not expended
in vain.
That he was comparatively unknown
TO the great mass Of Americans is due
to the fact that his great fortune
played DO part in the game of high
finance in Wall street; that he was not
enamored of society "high iinks. !"
and that be had not been through the
divorce court. Better comparative OBJ
scurity, however, than the notoriety
achieved by others Of his family But
" comparisons are odious." Suffice it
to say that good man has gone to his
eternal rest.
