The condition of Europe at the pres
ent time Is appalling. Great nations
are at each others threats in fright
full death struggle, and if protracted
even those desiring to remain neutral
are liable to be drawn into the
vortex of war. Millions of men
have been called into action to settle
the disputes of kings by the arbitra-
ment of arms. No such gigantic con-
flict as this threatens to be is of rec
ord in history. Its only parallel was
the alliance of nations against Napol-
con just one hundred years ago. Con-
ditions today are altogether different
from what they were a century ago
science and invention have improved
the methods and means of killing, and
the Hundred Days, With its ending in
Waterloo, will sink into insignificance,
in comparison with the numbers en-
gagged and the loss if life, if ever the
hordes of Germany and Austria on the
the other. clash together on one en-
sanguined field. What the outcome
will be is beyond human ken. If con-
tinued only a few months the loss OF
life will be frightful, the waste of
treasure incalculable, the sorrow and
suffering it will bring upon innocent
thousands beyond conception. War
is always barbarous. 1t settles no dis
pute. Peaceful arbitration would an
swer a better purpose than the bay
Cnet From what is apparent upon
the surface as to the causes that have
led up to this Europewide war they
would appear of hardly sufficient inn
portance to justify this great crime
against humanity. There must be
other deep underlying reasons for such
hasty action in precipitating war than
the world at large knows of. possibly
a spirit of revenge, d desire to acquire
territory by conquest, jealousy of the
growing strength of neighboring
states, or brutal desire to fight for
tie lust of fighting among those with
the power to set nations against ma
tons. The end no man can forsee.
The conflict may change the map of
Europe. 1t may ring the death knell
of kings and emperors. Death AMI
devastation, sorrow and suffering will
follow in the wake of these armies
graphing in the throes of battle, yet
il in the end great good may come to
the human race in better government
q better condition, and a stronger ce-
menting of the brotherhood of man
then the oceans of blood and tears that
will flow will not have been shed in
vain

There will be a dozen or more in
itative laws on the ballot at the No
vember election to be adopted or re-
jected by the voters of the state. Some
are good and some are bad, and the
voter should study the measures care
fully before making a decision. Pos
sibly the safest plan would be TO
vote mo" on all of them. However,
no matter how he may vote let every
voter vote yes or no that the measures
may neither win or lose on a scant
minority of the total vote cast. For
be it understood and remembered it is
through the Indifference of voters that
schemers expect to be able to foist
vicious and pernacious laws upon the
people,

Every right thinking man is opposed
to war, or violence OF any kind where
life and property is jeopardized
There are people, however who pub
fly to the support of, and extend SYM
pathy to, assassins and destroyers of
private and pubic property. Pro-
tests against war coming from such a
source sounds like insincerity and hy-
