thought operative and valuable. Above
all, remember that the peace pratt
tiers" are in no way blessed On the
contrary, only mischief has sprung
from the activities Of the professional
peace prattlers, the ultra-p acificists,
who, with the shrill clamOr Of eunuchs,
preach the gospel of the milk and wa

in the efficacy Of diluted moral mush

1t seems necessary every time 1
state my position to guard against the
counterwOrds of Willful folly by reit-
Grating that my disagreement with
the peace at any price men, the ultra
pacificists, is not in the least because
they favor peace. I object to them,
first because they have proved them
selves futile and impOtent in working
for peace, and second, because they
commit what is not merely the capital
error but the crime against morality
of failing to uphold righteousness as
the all important end towards Whlch
we should strive. In actual practice

force, who insist that power justifies
there Is no such thing as international
morality. But the ultra-pacificists
really play into the hands Of these
men. To condemn equally might which
backs right, and might which over
throws right is to render positive ser
vice to wrongdoers.
It is as If in private life we con-
demned alike both the policeman and
the dynamiter or black hand kidnaper

To denounce the nation that wages
war in self defence, or from generous
desire to relieve the oppressed, IN the
same terms in which we denOunce war
waged in a spirit of greed or wanton
folly stands on an exact par with de-
nouncing equally a murderer and the

In a capital book by a German, Ed

noble passage at the outset.
During the preparation Of this book
the writer received from his uncle,
veteran army officer living in Ores
den, a brief note containing the fol-
lowing laconic record:

by State Superintendent Hyatt of that
state and will no doubt be followed
by the customary indignant protest

The average person knows little
of this country and consequently Is
apt to make a mistake. Do you know
that you cannot mail tobacco in any
form to friend in France or that
you cannot mail patent medicine to n
friend in Hungary. if you have one
there? The postal laws of this coun-
try prohibit the mailing to any foreign
country Of matter liable to decOmpos

tons. Did you know that. with few
exceptions. you cannot mail to foreign
countries Canada excepted any pack
ct or letter containing gold or silver
substances. jewelry or precious arti
clcs? 1t is true. Nor can you send
any packet or letter containing articles
liable to customs duty in the countries
addressed. That does not apply to
Canada or Mexico or to articles for
warded by parcel post. The postal
laws prohibit the putting of intoyicat

NATIONAL FRIENDSHIP.

My other message is to assure
you that the friendship you en-
terrain for the people of the Unit
ed States is reciprocated by them
far more universally and far
more heartily than ever before.
There is friendship of govern
ments and friendship of ma
tons. The former may shift
with the shifting of material in
terestS or be affected by the re-
lations Of each power with other
powers, but the latter rests on
solid and permanent foundations.
With our two peoples it is based
on community of speech, Of lit
erature, of institutions, of be-
liefs, Of traditions from the past,
Of ideals for the future. In all
these things the British and
American peoples are closer than
any two other peoples can be.
Nature and history have meant
them to be friends. - James
Bryce, Former Ambassador at
Washington. to the British.

Commission Rule in 1914.

Notwithstanding discomfort report
ed from few quarters, commission
rule has been so generally satisfac-
tory in 1913 as to have influenced
fayorably the decisions of municipal
tiles in many parts of the United
tation of discomfort with the preva-
lent system of local government was
that recorded in Pennsylvania when
a long list of it's incorporated places
a few weeks ago accepted the COM
mission system with only slight modi-
fications from it's original form. The
year has been marked by numerous
and important accessions to the COM
mission column, and the geographical
range of the movement has been as
wide as the country.
With the assembling of legislatures
in number of the states next month
the prospects are that discussions
that have been carried on in various
quarters for the last year, on the
point of adopting the commission form
of government in counties and states.
will find expression in bills framed
with one or both of these purposes
in view. There is in the central
western states much stronger SEN
timent in favor of the simplification
of county and state governments than
appears on the surface In a quiet
way the subject has been debated in
club and other gatherings ever since
the governor of Kansas proposed the
change for his own state, and the To-
cal newspapers have from time to
time contained articles indicating
plainly that the matter is being con-
sidered by people of influence, and
SO seriously as to disturb the polite
ians.
A factor that is contributing large
1y toward bringing this matter to the
forefront is the short ballot agita-
ton. The further this proceeds the
more thoroughly is the public inform
ed with regard to the multiplicity of
Offices which it is called upon to
maintain. 1t was not the original
intention of the short ballot advo-
Gates to raise the commission rule
question, but they are beginning to
see that solution of their problem
is to be found in this direction. The
strongest arguments in favor of COM
mission government are, that it re-
duces greatly the number of offices
and officeholders, that it promotes
simplicity in the conduct of public
affairs, and that it invites efficiency.
Demonstrations, so far as municipal
government is concerned, are now
offered by scores of communities in
support of these contentious, and the
claim is made by advocates of the
system that it can be applied with
greater ease to counties and states
than to city governments, because the
former have escaped many of the COM
plexities that have become incor-
porated with the latter under the old
form. The year that is coming is
counted upon by these advocates to
mark the expansion of commission
rule along more comprehensive lines
than have so far been followed

LOST Low

Who wins his love shall lose her.
Who loses her shall gain.
For still the spirit wooes her
A soul without Il stain
And memory still pursues her,
With longings not in vain!
He loses her who gains her.
Who watches day by DAY
The dust of time that stains her.
The griefs that leave her gray.
The flesh that yet encha!nS her
Whose grace hath passed
away!
Oh. happier he who gains not
The love some seem to gain.
The JOY that custom stains nor
Shall still with him remain.
The loneliness that wanes not.
The love that ne'er can wane.
In dreams she grows not older
The land of dream among.
Though all the world wax colder.
Though all the songs be sung,
In dreams doth he behold her
Still fair and kind and young.
