Dear Sir: A number of newspapers
are publishing warnings to young
people on account of the desire or
many to visit California during the
expOsitions to be held there next year,
asserting that in all probability there
will be an over-supply of help in all
kinds of work and pointing out the
dangers and hardship that will result
IT young men and women depend
mostly upon working their way on a
sightseeing trip. A warning of this
kind applies to young people contem-
plating a similar visit to any large
city and exemplifies the necessity of
n%urturing strong national ideals to
make such warning unnecessary, and
for the people to bear at least a silent
protest against things that are not

1861 Gettysburg Addness.1914

'Fourscore and seven years ago. spoke the President,
our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation,
conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all
men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil
war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived
and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great
battlefield OF that war. We have come to dedicate a portion
OF it as a final resting place for those who here gave their
lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and
proper that we should do this.
"But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate we cannot con-
secrate, We cannot hallow, this ground. The brave men,
living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far
above our poor power to add or to detract. The world will
little note nor long remember what We say here, but it can never
forget what they did here. It is for us, the lv-
ing, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished
work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly adj
vanced. 1t is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great
task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we
take increased devotion to that cause for which they have gave
the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve
that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation,
under God, shall have a new brit tn of freedom, and that govern
ment of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not
perish from the earth"

HEARTS BOWED DOWN..

HEARTS BOWED DOWN.
Another sea catastrophe has beer
added to the recent long list of ma
rine disasters.
Empress of Ireland is now linked
with the ill.fated Titanic and Voltur
no in deaths log of the seas grim
toll.
Wireless instruments and Othel
modern appliances devised for the
safe operation of sea-craft were In
vain. The big ocean liner apparently
was as helpless as an open dory, after
the fatal impact:
Recent years have witnessed many
accidents at sea. Hardly a month
goes by, but what some minor acct
dent is chronicled by the press, and
too frequently the world is shocked
by an appalling loss of life on the
ocean.
Is ocean travel growing less and
less safe? Has science failed to min
imize the hazard of death on sea?
These and a hundred other ques'
tons come crashing into our brain as
we contemplate the awful fate of the
Empress of Ireland" and feel the
inadequacy of words to express our
sorrow.
Speed is the death dealing force
on sea. Rivalry between the steam
ship lines to lop off a few min
utes or a few seconds in their run
ming time has plunged many souls to
a water grave. The Titanic, with its
thousands aboard, struck an iceberg
while going at top speed, so that, in
the parlance of the sea, "a record
might be broken. What an awful rec.
ord It did beat,
In vying with each other in ele.
gance of appointments, size and
equipment, have the shipbuilding com
panies sacrificed comfort for safety?
1t would seem so. The Vaterland, a
floating palace, with it's Roman baths,
its Ritz-Carlton dining rooms, its ball
rooms and a thousand other features,
nearly wrecked the Southern Pacific
pier in the New York harbor upon its
initial trip, last week.
This ocean giantess, the largest
craft afoat-probably not the safest
sunk a barge and damaged other
ships and piers in getting started on
her first trip back to Hamburg. So
large is the Vaterland that no dry
dock in America is large enough to
hold her, and repairs had to be done
by divers.
IF the passengers were consulted,
the steamship companies would com
pete with each other in the safe oper.
alton Of their crafts rather than in
elegance and speed.
The Tribune published today a list
of all the largest marine disasters
since 1896. Where the lives lost is
a matter of record, the total mounts
to the astounding figure of 6,O46.
What a terrible toll of lives in less
than 20 years!
While the Empress of Ireland dis.
aster technically will be classed as a
river rather than a e catastrophe,
the distinction is one without a diff.
ference, except more pathetic. These
passengers were drowned like rats
In a cage, within a short distance
from land.
Only In this particular is there
much difference between the sinking
of the Titanic and the Empress. Both
disasters took place in darkness,
Many of the passengers had retired,
thus making rescue work more diff.
cult.
With meagre reports at present
writing, the first question suggested
is, under what guidance was the Dan.
ish collier blowing up the river at
such a speed.
There will be the usual investiga.
tons, the usual perfunctory findings
but oh, the sorrowing hearts.

n FIGHT s on,

The Foster county campaign is on.
With the closing of the time for FL
ing petitions Monday evening, the
stage may be said to have been set
for the playlet that will take a month
to produce. From the stage will come
suggestions of tragedy, comedy and
drama. 1t will be interesting to watch
from the side lines and the actors will
throw their whole souls into the work.
The average voter will not worry.
Whatever the outcome he is already
assured of getting a good public ser
want. Democratic and republican a..
pirants are $of good class. The men
who seek public offices are good men,
almost without exception. 1t will be
hard for the voter to 60 wrong in his
choice.

tenn of nominations has not filled the
court house with incompetents or rich
men. Quality has ruled, as It would

Of less ability.
The campaign will be waged Wig
orously until June 2.
The state, congressional and sen
atorial campaigns will be equally brisk
this year. There are direct issues to
be put forward by the candidates and
settled by the people.
Forecasts as to 0utcOmes are not
