War n Fight for seIr-Preservnt,on,


HINCKLBY, MINI, Aug. SO.-To the
Editor OF The Bee ! have been reading
with interest the opinions of different per-
sons In your columns regarding the great
war now being waged by civilized (?)
man. One man feels that he has found
the cause of all war chat is a great step).
IL is in the church and the teaching OF
Its ministers; another thinks 1t is the
crowned heads OF Europe; another feels
that II Is the great gunmakers of the
world who are responsible for the awful
crime, etc.
A moments reflection will teach us that
none Of these are the cause of war. nor
are the moneyed interests. so often
chargd with wanting war, the cause
The teachings that so out from the
church do not make men go to war, but
they go TO war Notwithstanding the
teachings OF the church.
We have TO take only a few ges from
history to show us that men do wage war
where there are no crowned heads"
Men have fought under all conditions:
they still fight and always will fight until
reason prevails and they not only know
but understand to do the better way. The
fight in us Is part OF our creation, just
as with the lower animals. II is an in
stinct for elf-preservation.
Let the pulpit and the press tell us what
an awful murder has been committed, tell
us the cost in human lives and rivers OF
tears. tell us what the money so spent
would do In educating those nations chill
dren. Let them all unite TO show us
what war really is and its results and
what these valiant dead might have ac-
complished under a united banner Of
peace. A. J. HUNT

what Il Costs to XIII a Ma

What IL Costs to Kill n Man In Battle.
General Percin in La Science ct la Wei
Il read in an American newspaper that to kill a
man in modern warfare costs in the neighborhood
of 5000. This figure seeming to to be excessive
l sought TO verify It, My results show that really
the newspaper below rather than above the truth
To get at the cost of killing soldier it is
TO divide the cost of the war to Of the bel
lgerents by the number of men killed the other
side.
I'm 1901 France spent about 2OOOCOOOO francs in
the actual warfare and O0OOO0O00 in restoring
its property and in payments for injuries
to others which it is perfectly fair TO include in the
costs Then there 5000 10000 for indemnity
and still 1000 600 for interest loss of
and seizures by the enemy for maintenance during
the German occupation. In the same way the Russo
Turkish OF 1S77-7S 2OO1OCOOOO francs to the
Turks, and the Russo-Japanese war. 1905 cost the
Russians 6,OOO,OO0OOO In the Frauco-Prussian
there 2 600 Germans killed MORALLY wounded;
in the Russo-Turkish war. 600, and in the Russo
Japanese co. in the latter instances Of Russia and
Japan. respectively From these figures 1t is evident
that the price per killed to the opposing side
in 1S7O s21OOo 1S7,-7S. $1,000 and in 1905, 400
all of the figures in Of those named in the
American journal.
II rather expected when l undertook this calcula-
ton to find that the costs were increasing. On the
side the engines of cost more they
perfected On the other hand progress in the art of
killing is always surpassed by in the art OF
defense. The result is that the ratio of killed
wounded in actual battle is continually diminishing.
This ratio was per under Frederick the Great.
per cent under Napoleon. per cent in 1870 and "a
per in Manchuria. But IN 1870 there were not
great battles. The German armies fought little
Foschwiller and Sedan and the French little
between Sedan and Coulmiers. The fight taken
up again in December, but less sharply than at the
beginning. During much of the time men did not
kill, but the expenses never ceased. In Manchuria.
the contrary they fought nearly day. The bat
ties were long ones fifteen days at Mukden. twelve
at Cha-Ho and eight at Lao-Yang This increase in
duration the battles compensates for the slight loss
in any individual hour of the fight One may also
why the cost of a killed is not higher in 1906
than in 1870
That which kills and reduces efficiency in is
not the cannot the rifle, but fatigue cholera and
typhoid. In 1870 there registered in the hos
pitfalls no less than $4,000 Germans who although
they survived inactive for some time. The Grim
