THE WORD.

God has not told US whittier we are
going,
Only the seed our hearts hold is His
sowing,
Only we follow in His great wind
blowing.
Not like a tFumpet-cry on high out
leaping,
Most like a woman's cry or child's
weeping
Came the great Word to us, apart and
sleeping.
Only a Whisper came to us at walk
ing,
Like a low wind across the wheat
fields shaking:
Follow and come! The path is made
for taking!
'Once wise men bIazed path for
this worlds needing,
Followed unhoping where their, truth
was leading,
Now We must tread where once their
feet trod bleeding"
Frightened, we murmured each 20
each, outpeerins,
Each still unknowing Of the others
fearing:
Sister, you heard it! Sister you too.

Until we followed through the faint
dawn golding,
White hand outreached to hand un-
used to holding,
Followed the pathway, still unguessed
unfolding.
Still shall we follow 'till the dark is
falling,
Still, though the path be rough or
burdens CALLING,
Still we must follow to the Whispers

God has not shown Us whittier we
are going,
Only the hope our hearts hold is His

Only we follow in His great Wind

RAYMOND popGEs QUERIES.

Mr.. Raymond may have something to say in a
few days in reply to the polite queries addressed
to him at the beginning of his campaign by the
Socialist County Committee He must take the mat
ter under consideration" Similar queries were ad-
dressed to Mayor Haussing and he responded at
with frank reply. Mr. Raymond waited for sec
ond and urgent request for notice to be taken
of the queries
Now while the doctrines of Socialism are professed
by comparatively small number of voters, the ami
mating principle, the good of humanity, is in the
hearts of the great majority of men. Mayor Hauss-
ling's reply was in that spirit He could not sub
scribe to the doctrine of Socialism, but he could SYM
pathize with the human spirit out of which Socialism
grew.
Mr.. Raymond never had any sympathy with that
spirit His training and environments those of
man apart from the common people. To him
humanity is simply the servant OF property and the
dollar the paramount consideration. All of Mr.. Ray
monds campaign talk has consisted of appeals to the
selfshness of the dollar He has hardly uttered a
word to commend his candidacy to the sympathy and
support of the of people who believe the
human needs paramount.

WEDNESDAY EVENING. OCTOBER q. 1s1
AN INCREASED REGISTRATION.

The complete figures of the registration for the
November election almost uniformly show increase
,ver the figures of 1913. This increase also runs
through the county and in West Hudson, where it
not SO pronounced 1t is evident, therefore, that
here much larger interest in this years elections
han had been suspected by political managers, most
IF whom had looked for total registration this year
below that of 1913.
There have been extraordinary events since last
July to distract the attention of the people from their
public affairs but while they diverted interest from
political meetings and made the campaign appear list
ess they did not distract peoples interest from the
election in November.
The larger registration in the city is good sign
Of an increased Democratic vote Much of the in
crease was due to the indefatigable efforts of the
organization workers to get the party vote registered
In this respect they far ahead of the Republican
managers
In view of this fact the public may expect the
usual cry, reiterated the close of every local
election campaign in this city, of false registration
The type in the News Office used two years ago is
available for this year.

Rev. Mr.. Johnston's Ethics

TO the Editor of the Evening Star
Being a daily reader of your most
valuable paper, | had occasion to
read part of sermon" delivered by
REV. Mercer G. Johnston" rector of
Trinity Episcopal Church. and would
be thankful to you il you would be
kind enough TO insert my answer TO
same.
First. may | say that | am not of
German blood, nor do | wish in any
way to publicly express my opinion
Of my sympathy for one or another
of the nations now at war in Europe.
The esteemed reverend may be pos
sessed of far greater knowledge than
of the history and spirits of nations,
and whatever may be of use to one
able to address a public gathering,
but | will say that with what little
knowledge / possess, / at least have
brains and sense enough to adhere to
the wish of our President and remain
neutral" Perhane IN the course OF
the present war a man will, through
great interest in its progress, offer his
opinion in private, in friendly chat,
one way or another. Just as our
Upright speaker has offered his
opinion of the right or wrong feeling
one nation has towards ours, so may
another be able to offer his from just
the opposite direction. But that is
neither here nor there as far as we
are concerned Our noble President,
the man we have put in the White
House, and who looks to tho welfare
of our great nation, asks and even
begs us to be absolutely neutral, not
even to express our opinion of one or
the other side of the European con-
fict. and / think it the duty of every
citizen to adhere TO it. Why should a
man. If he is a citizen of the United
states. publicly disregard this plea of
our leader? The speaker did not speak
as an American, as the entire article
has an English tinge. He asks that
those in sympathy with Germany
should either go there and fight for
her or not interfere with the full and
free working of the American spirit. '
If they because they have their
opinion are not interfering, Is not he
himself doing so when he gives his
opinionY If he wants to be in sym
patty with England why doesn't he
go there and fight for her and not in
terfere with the ''full and free work.
Ing Of the American spirit2" II is
just such public opinions that when
expressed stir UP trouble and make
wars possible, and b think such SER
mons should not be tolerated. for

TRADING ON MAYOR M1roHEL's NAME.

Mayor John Purroy Mitchell of New York, is a
Democrat He is supporter of Governor Glynn for
election and of the entire city and State ticket in New
York. Mr.. Mitchell had any Affiliations with
political knockers and traders.
There is something comcal, therefore, in the an

York to ask Mayor Mitchell to come to Newark and
deliver address in aid of the election OF Re-
publican candidate for mayor.
Apart from his party associations Mayor Mitchell
progressive in his views and therefore, is the oppo-
site of the reactionary candidate champoned by this
Citizens League He is man of the type of Mayor

OPINIONS AND VIEWS FROM THE EXCHANGES

to South America, and this explains
why our exports to that region in
creased from SAL 100000 in 1908 to
STAG 000, 900 in 1918. Just in proportion
as we get the manufactured goods
trade of South America the trade be-
comes reciprocal instead of TRAN
gular, and the reason for settling in
London and Paris disappears. Now,
with the interruption of traffic be-
tween Europe and South America
great impetus is given to the direct
trade.
The committee appointed by Secre-
tary Redfield to advise the country
on the best means of facilitating this
impetus is made up of men prominent
in the banking and manufacturing
world, and of long and large expert
ence in trade with South America,
The report it has just issued dwells
on the close relation of finance and
traffic. The new banking and cur
rency law invites our banks to estab-
lish branches in South America, and
the committee suggests several tenn
porary measures to facilitate pay
ments before the proposed branch
banks get into operation. 1t urges
the adoption of the dollar as the unit
of exchange. The Dominion of Can

dollar as the unit, though it's politi.
cal relations are with Great Britain.
The Spanish dollar is the historical
and customary monetary unit of all
Spanish America. The calculation OF
exchange IN dollars and the opening
of American banks would greatly ia
cilitate the district trade, which Is al
ready growing fast on account of our
| increasing ability to compete with
European manufacturers in all lines
and is destined to be very greatly in

But the war influence is only Incl

ports to South America have been
growing rapidly during the past
decade. The war stimulates large
existing trade, and If we can In some
measure supply South Americas need
of capital, and II we can at least fur
nish South American customers with
the credits TO which they are accus-
toned, and which they need because
OF their limited capital and the flnan-
cial resources Of their customers, we
