DISARMAMENT OR--WHAT?

may count for more to Canada in the
coming council of the nations than
Laurier's Canadian fleets of armored
cruisers and Borden's Naval Aid SUI
per-Dreadnoughts had both been
achieved. Canada may have Sbeen slow
to protect herself, but it was because
she trusted her neighbors and kept her
own heart pure. Blessed are the pure
in heart, for, when others are blind
and miss the way, they shall see the
truth and their judgments shall be
just.
But one such experience is enough.
Canada must stand for the disarming
of every nation and for International
izing Of all defences, or Canada must
arm. And in standing for disarma-
ment no other nation can call Canada
either a weakling or a coward These
days of heroism and self-sacrifce, and
the inevitable coming days of personal
grief and national loss. will give that
iibe the lie. Neither can we be taunt-
ed with disloyalty to Britain's foreign
policy as Salisbury and all the great
statesmen back to Russell expounded
it, and as Asquith and Grey in this
later day of stress have 50 earnestly
urged it. Nor is disarmament a denial
of North American internationalism
it is its affirmation. Along four thous-
and miles of international lakes and
boundary lines it has been done for
well night a hundred years by these
two proud but unequal nations. 1t is
the truest American idea for which,
when in their exhaustion the war-na-
tons meet in council Canada and
the United States will stand together
and speak with one voice. Canada as
a combatapt in this war, the United
States as a neutral, both as sufferers,
will speak for North America, and
will not speak in vain.-Toronto

y THE LITTLE SPOT CALLED :
= HOME


There's something in us native to
the soil where we belong,
The gift of gentle kindness or the
joy of living song;
There's something in us answering in
the long result of years
Responsive to the message of the sail
that caught our tears,
And caught our echoed laughter, in
the childhoods far away
1t comes back rushing DER US some
far time at work or play
And all the end an answer,
Of the problem where we roam
Is in dreams remembered
OF the little spot called home!
1t may have been a cottage just along
a sunny road,
Where many stopped in travel to lay
by their weary load;
1T may have been howell in an alley
of the town
Where only roaring thunder of tha
traffic tide poured down;
No matter what our toiling or oul
leisure of our taste,
There's something native to it in the
chance we prove or waste;
No matter how it happens
Picture pamphlet, play or poem
There's something in it native
To the little spot called home
Beyond the sunny memory of til,
golden childhood days
We walk in grand revivals of thou
sand glowing ways;
Our struggle leads us outward as {
ship is lead to sea
By alien winds around her on the
star-board and the lee;
But ever at the apex of the efforts
that we climb,
There's something gets us dreaming
of the days of childhood time:
Before us in our triumph,
On the land or on the roam,
Is, the consciousness forever
OF the little spot called home!

it comes to market, say for at least
four months in the year after Septem-
Der 1st of each year. The handling of
this money any live bank would be
glad to get the use of during this pc
liod practically free of charge to the
government.
You have now your warehouse bond
ed and in charge of government ex-
perts, Cor should be)-you have your
postal savings bank, and you have
your paying, bank with the cotton
funds-and what will be the result?
The price is fixed at Washington
daily, and when cotton comes to MAJ
ket the owner or grower can store it
or receive 1-2 it's value in cash that
day and the balance in 80 or so
days at the discretion of the govern
ment, viz: Upon his having the cot
ton properly sampled and classife
at the government warehouse, and on
taking the receipt therefor to the pos
tai savings bank and receiving a gov
eminent check for same on the paying
bank, after a fee is paid to the gov
eminent, according to the scale of
money orders already fixed.
The receipts for the balance of the
payments on cotton are held by the
paying bank or bank of deposit, and
same can be sold or discounted at any
time by the owner thereof when he
chooses at slight discount to the
bank.
This is my beginning" plan, which
can be elaborated, and if any one has
a better one, let the government have
it, as the grower is looking earnestly
for a good one which will meet the
present requirement Respectfully,

Asks for License for Horse
Stealing
(Brawley, Cal, News.)

To the Honorable, the Board of Su-
pervisors, County Imperial, State CT
California, l hereby make application
for special license to steal horses. l
am willing to pay literally for the
privilege. l am emboldened to make
this application by reason of other
special privileges sought at Brawley
and other places by citizens of good
neral character" The business for
which they desire licenses produced
at least three-fourths of all the crime
committed in Imperial county last
year. 1t has filled our lookup and the
county Jail. 1t has made our criminal
court the most expensive in the his
tory of the county.
The business for which l ask lie
ense is far less injurious to the com
munity than the business of selling in
toxicating liquors, either at wholesale
Or retail
l. pledge myself not to take away
the sense of any man, nor to rob his
purse
2. l obligate myself not to cause
men to beat their wives, damn their
children in the world, commit murder
or raise disturbance, in the commun
ity. l only want to steal their horses.
3. And if the man has a soul, which
most men believe, l promise to do
nothing to destroy this germ of i'm
mortality, but will leave it to its own
moral course. l only want to steal
horses.
4. l Furthermore solemnly promise
that if the license is granted l will
not steal horses on Sunday, nor on
election day, nor on legal holidays,
nor after u o'clock at night. l also
solemnly promise not to steal colts.
nor horses that have no sense, nor old
broken plugs.
3. Your honorable body will real
ize the license l pray for will result in
far less harm to the community than
license to sell intoxicating liquors.
Of course, may damage the property
of few well-to-do persons. but their
bodies, minds, regulations and char
acter, am above imparing.
6. would further enforce my ap-
plication by reminding your honorable
body that you cannot run the county
without the license fees; that if | don't
steal horses, somebody else will with
out the license, and all attempts
prohibit horse stealing only results in
producing sneaks and liars.
Permit me to add that am liberal
contributor to the political jackpot,
