Of justice or failure to appreciate the wck"'ineSs
Of, needless sacrifice.
Whether it is better to punish the hayward
one or to exercise patience better to bully and
bluster or maintain perfect selfcontrOl, is al
ways a subject for sharp difference of opinion.
1t tries mems souls
That's Just what 1.-The Mexican situation is
doing to America today President Wilson is
seeking in every possible way to keep us in the
paths of peace. In this he has the hearty sup
port Of the American people. Should the Presi-
dent fail in his effort he will also have the sup
port of a people thoroughly united for any fight
that may be on hand in any direction.
Meanwhile let it be remembered that although
human errors are common to all men, the Amcri-
can people from the President down to the most
unassumiRg citizen are unashamed and mafraid.

ALWAYS THE PEOPLE PAY. The Conareaationalist, Auaust IS.

4 TIER all the terrible lessons of the ages "A past, even with the devastated still bleed. ing Balkans before them, could not the masters this conflict realize that the most precious pos sessions of any nation are its men, women and children. that the homes are the bulwarks of nation, that civilization advances only in peace while war destroys their best and breeds Darbarism? Have they not learned the blight ing curse that comes from race hatred which the spirit of war indames? But is not war inevitable among those whose chief business ruled by Napoleonic ambition?
 While the war lords sate their lust for power and great domain the people pay the terrible price-always the people pay.
 In our horror and dismay that great war involving all Europe and menacing all the na- tions of the world, should be begun so ruthless ly, we might despair of the onward course of the Kingdom of Righteousness. But we must not lose our faith in God Even the blind am bition and brutal warfare of worldly monarchs shall be made to serve Gods purposes. The cause of justice and righteousness is coming to it's own. In recent years democracy has made steady and rapid progress throughout the world, especially in Europe.
 The gospel of democracy, world brotherhood and world peace is proclaimtd by the prophets of the twentieth century. The prophets vision is breaking upon the multitude, upon those who do the worlds work and fight the worlds battles. They are beginning to realize the price they have to pay for monarchy, the price they have to pay for war. They realize as never before their right and their power to rule

wAR-FoR WHAT?
hristian Herald, Aug. 2e, 1914.

Christian Herald, Aug. 26, 1914. TN Europe to-day seven countries are engaged in bloody warfare.-FOR WHAT?
 Seventeen million men have been called from their peaceful vacations and are engaged in trying to slaughter one another.-FOR WHAT?
 Of these seventeen million over thirty thou sand have already been murdered.-FOR WHAT?
 Wherefore it follows that over thirty thou sand wives, mothers and children have been bereaved of husband, son or father.-FOR WHAT?
 The patriots of 76 went to war for prin- ciple, the establishing of which had an imme- diate effect upon their pocketbooks, their pride, and an ultimate result in upbuilding the whole country When the war in Europe is over every person who survives will be poorer, every moral sense blunted, every sense of jus tice dulled-the progress of civilization re- tarded no one knows how many years.--FOR WHAT?
 Ask the potentates who sit upon the thrones. Ask the wastrels whose personal aggrandize- ment is being reared upon the grief of the people. Ask the spirit of militarism that hov- CTS like vampire over the uplift of humanity Ask the diplomats who might have prevented 1t, but did not Ask the people themselves in the name of common sense why and for what purpose crime of such enormity should be permitted.

What the Religious
 Press Has to Say Concerning the Or ganized and Wicked Slaughter That Di- rectly Controverts
 All the Teachings of the Prince of Peace"

17HE charge has been made that the out.
 br eak of the vast European conflict
 A proves Christianity to be failure-in Europe, at least. And voicing of this charge Is found in the article that leads the interest ing symposium on this page.
 It is, of course ndsputahle that Jesus Christ taught peace-"peace earth, good will to men" is the essence of his doctrines. The nations that are at war are Christian na- tions which for hundreds of years have listened to the teachings of the Saviour expounded in their churches They have pious rulers the Czar nvokes Diety and in the name Of Christ and Holy Russia; the Kaiser reverently announces that Deity is with the Germans and the Kings of England and of Belgium do the sayhe thing.
 Yet it is certain that the Saviour abhorred and preached not only peace but nonre- sistance. How can the actions of the Christian countries be reconciled with their profession of Christian faith.
 Upon this point the following comments on the war taken from the editorial pages of the leading denominational publications in America are extremely interesting.

charity are Tn its soul, its acts will be just and charitable If hatred and greed dominate its spirit hatred and greed will mark it's atti- tude toward its neighbor. Mammon not Christ, will be it's god Heaven will be in its wild dreams; the earth in it's active life. Trade and conquest will be the be-an and endal of its existence. It will watch its neighbours progress with Jealous eye, inspect it's neigh bor's ports, reckon it's neighbours ships, count its neighbours soldiers, estimate its neighbours lighting power and at favorable moment hurl itself at it's neighbor in war.
 For what? For dross, a temporal advantage For this must Gods noble creature, man. die brutal death; for this. too, must widows mourn and children weep-not for high prin- ciples but for vile lucre. That is the lesson of great part of this war. Mammon must be served once again, adored by the sacrifice of thousands of human lives, propitiated by the walls of women and the tears of children.
 The conquering nation will emerge from the war all dripping with blood. It will wash Throughout the world preachers will point a finger of one hand at the glittering mass coined from mans life blood, and lifting their voices will shout: Behold what the unadulterated Bible, the pure Gospel. has done for this nation' finger of the other hand will be directed to the conquered, despoiled nation, and men will be warned against a religion which has left it's adherents m such misery.
 God awaits His day. The cannon will not roar forever, the drum will not sound for long. The mocking of Christ's spirit will cease. And then? The judgment.

FAILURE OF CHRISTlANITY.r The American Hebrew, August IA.

THE London Jewish World dated August D, just before England declared war against Germany, contained .an excellent edltoriai pointing to the failure of Christianity in the present crisis. The World said:
 "As we write the air is burdened with wal and the threats of war Vast armies are mob lizing, marching and counter-marchlng. lhe voice of diplomacy is hushed to whisper al most And men asking not whether the crimson tide of slaughter can be stayed, put how much of the worlds territory 1t can De permitted to dye. The Armageddon, so long urophesied, seems at last at hand. ana Europe looks as if it would, in the historic phrase rat tie into barbarism and the sun oi ciVilAaloh set in of blood.
 "As we ponder these things we ask ourselves whether we do indeed live under Chrlstlan civiization-under the supreme dlspensaIion of the Prince of Peace. Is this all that t"o thousand years of Christianity, driven aheau in the teeth of all opposition and over the bodies of countless myriads of martyrs, can accomplish for men? Has this creed, With all the endless misery and suffering that It mas entailed done nothing after all but lead the nations to the br1nk or Splrltudi uahhi ap'0' and material ruin?
 "rhe Christian creed stands confessed to- day before all men as horrible ana gnastiy failure A faith whose cornerstone Is proth ery peace but whose priests have blessed the cannon and the battleship and turned con fineut into great camp bristling with steel, was already suspect But now that nearly all it's chief votaries have sprung at one anothers throats, and manacal fury has seized on the Christian hosts the voice of reason asks Can this barren creed, the principles of which count for so little in practise, survive the ex- posure? Has not the world had a surfeit of hollow mockeries? Mockeries, to be sure! The religion whose adherents turn their cities into shambles is still preached to Jews as the indispensable key to salvation, and rivers of gold are set flowing to accelerate conviction. Do, for Gods sake, and the sake of common decency, let us have an end to this intOlerable and hateful business If Christianity cannot guard it's own children, let it at least cease to prate to Jews of it's spiritual blessings. In the welter of blood and panic let us, for mercy's sake, have done with hypocrisy and keep . clean tongue"

THE DEVIL IS IN THE SADDLE. The Christian Advocate, August 6.

THE devil is in the saddle on the other side of the globe, and certain crowned heads are his willing lieutenants.
 The civilized world is stunned by the sud. denness and the enormity of the International crime and finds 1t impossible to name any jus tidcation for the frightful outbreak.
 It must not be overlooked that ever since the Franco -Prussan War in 1870 the nations Of Europe have been steadily preparing them selves for great international conflict Dur ing the last forty years whenever an outbreak has occurred in any part of Europe men have said: Perhaps this is the hour when the great nations will hurl themselves at one anothers throats." There is much psychological weight in the mere fact of keeping such sentiment in the thought of so many men. Probably few would have predicted month ago that we were on the verge of this outrageous war, but the conditions were suitable, the temper of European Powers was waiting provocation the forces were ready, and the world is staggered by the tragic outcome.
 The internal irony of the case lies here that at the very moment when international peace is the uppermost question among civil lzed nations, in the very week of a Peace Con- ference was to have met in central Euro pean city, this mOnstrOus iniquity should have sprung upon the world with unrestrained fury. It Is convincing proof that Hague tribunals palaces of peace and artificial expedients for suppressing war will be of little effect until the political magnates of the world become actually Christian.
 If the crowned heads of Europe who are most responsible for this wickedness were the Christians they fancy themselves to be the peace of the world would not have been broken. May God save the people of Europe and for give those who are accountable for the deluge of blood which has begun, and speedily bring to naught the machinations Of cruel men.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-09-06

buries with it, the freer will the field be for the growth of real peace which can only have its roots in the brotherhood of man.
 Peace want, but it must be peace not a mere absence of actual hostilities covering a seething depth of suspicion, hatred, envy and fear If by some miracle the marching hosts could be turned back today; if the hunting ships of prey could be drawn home to their own coasts; if the emperors who have claimed divine sanction for their appeals to force could be suddenly brought to countermand their wanton orders for death and destruction, 1t remains miserable certainty that the state of armed tension would yet exist, the garrisons on international boundaries would not be re- duced, the making of guns and explosives would not cease the toll of the farmer and the mechanic would still be taxed more and more heavily for the upkeep of these mon- strous armies and godbraided general staffs. and the tension would simply continue to grow with an added cause of distrust in the recent ly demonstrated futility of international guar ante%s or national promises.
 As long as any nation or any sovereign in Europe retains the power or the will to dew astate unoffending neighbor, as Germany has done to Belgium, or to plunge continent into war without warning, as Austria has done to Europe, so long is any peace in the real sense of the word social impossbity. Peace, yes-but not peace which bears within it's bosom the seeds of perpetual war, whether hidden or open Peace, again yes! but not peace which is simply the ingenious balanc ing on the point of the bayonet soap-bubble which is bound to burst
 Out of this destruction may yet come forth brotherhood. The people of Germany do not hate the people of France any more than the people of England hate the people of Austria. And perhaps when the princes and the war cabinets and the monster guns and the high power explosives and the bomb-dropping aero planes have thoroughly and absolutely demon strated their incapacity to preserve peace or to promote international amity the peoples will take the matter into their own hands. Let it be this peace full final and fruitful, that we plead for in our prayers, and not that mere mockery of peace which has so long gone by it's name
