j, LAWYERS AS LEGISLATORS.

Americans are, as u rule, governed
largely by their prejudices, and this
fact becomes more clearly known ev-
cry campaign year when voters must
express themselves at the ballot box
selecting men who, shall be officials.
Often we hear political speakers try
Ing to array one class against another
and making all kind OF unkind re-
marks Of them. It will be- found that
the virtues do not all reside with any
one class, but that there are good
men In all classes.
OF all the classes that are the OBJ
5ects OF these attacks, many of them
insiduous, and often for the sake of
hnmor, nole have been more widely

times, II Luke may be taken as au-
ithority, we find evidence OF such an
attitude. for therein we read Of an oc-

country is bountifully able to protect
the interests OF all the people" This
gentleman Is right People believe
| what they read, the remarks of certain
political speakers TO the contrary not
withstanding. and if they read any
thing often enough. they will soon be-
lieve il true.
But The Intclligencer does not think
It necessary TO color the picture at
all. There is no very dark side as we
see 1t to this war picture. The suprc-
macy OF the United States is assured,
and the war will only cause our cele-
brated Yankee ingenuity" to hunt for
new fields. South America, Africa,
and other countries not engaged in
war will be glad TO enter into trade
relations with this country. and while
there will be Il temporary setback,
II will be only temporary. Already
the tendency is to regard the war as
not wholly an evil, In so far as II re-
lates to American industries.
Read what the Manufacturers Re-
cord says of this matter, and let us
think as this great journal thinks:
Humanity may be staggered by
the horrors OF Europc's war, but civ
ilization will not be destroyed. Mil
lions Of men and billions of treasure
may be lost in this devilish work:
thrones may totter, and new maps of
Europe may be necessary before the
end Is reached: but all mankind will
on the wreck Of these ruins, build II
better civilization-one in which the
people and not few INSCRIPTIONS
men who feel that they have been
Divinely appointed will rule.
AS the people Of this country view
the horrors OF the European situation
they may well take courage and thank
God that they live in q land free from
such conditions as those prevailing in
Europe. While moved by profound
sorrow for the awful tragedy that is
being enacted. and sympathzing with
the suffering on the battlefield and the
greater suffering Of broken hearts in
homes made desolaate by wars de-
struction, we yet have right to lift
up our hearts in thanksgiving for the
blessings of this country In material
things and In the freedom from the
conditions prevailing in Europe.
I'm the light Of the contrast be-
tween the blessings which the people
of the United States are now enjoyinS
with the magnificent crops of the year
vouchsafed to us, how small and petty
seem our thoughts when we mourn be-
cause business is not quite SO good
as 1t might be and because our
chances Of making money are for the
moment not quite so abundant as in
times past.
LET the people Of this country put
behind them such pessimfsm and such
narrowness. and In spirit of enthus-
iastic optimism carry forward the
work of the day, without hesitating
or halting. and there will be BUSINESS
enough for all and room enough for
all when the temporary disadvantages
Of the present situation have passed
away"
