WAR N COMMERCE

The foreign trade and business rela-
tons Of the, United States would have
been much lass interrupted could Europe
have adopted the American principle of
exemption of private property from
capture at sea in war.
At The hague conference of 1907,
the American delegation made a plea
for such exemption from capture. This
principle has always been advocated by
u government. France, Great Britain,
Russia, Japan and other governments
opposed it at The Hague, and it was
beaten.
In more barbarous times, wives and
children were captured and sold into
slavery, cities were burned, and nom
combatants put to the sword.
Gradually these wicked customs have
been refined, as respects the lives and
freedom of non-combatants, and as re-
spects property on hand. Even in a
country so backward and r~eactionary
as Mexico, non-combatants have been
mostly safe, and destruction of private
property has been at least the excep-
ton.
Yet in the matter of capture of pri-
vate property at sea, the old archaic
principles of ancient warfare still pre-
vail in all their barbarism. The war
riors may be too cultured to attack
women and children. Yet they will
capture the food that will keep those
women and children from starvation.
They will seize the materials of manu-
facture that permit a country to main
tain its economic existence.
Nothing is gained by these s~urvivals
of savage practices. History shows
few instances where nations have been
-overpowered by blows at economic
prosperity. Besie;ged cities always eat
horse flesh rather than submit. 1t is
only by direct attack on fighting power
hat war can win. The subsection OF
the commerce of the world to the ter.
ror Of naval attack is thus a medieval.
The United States has the glory OF
having led the fight against this bar.
barism.

HEAVY STRAIN ON WIVES OF
PUBLIC MEN.

1t is the rule in public service that
the man wins the applause, but the
wife often carries a burden the weight
of which is unrecognized. The fact is
suggested by the pathetic death OF
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. and the i'll
health encountered by Mrs. Taft in the
White House. The position of ''frst
lady in the land'' is not the ornamental
joy it seems to many aspiring women.
The experiences of a public mans
wife must be a little like those of a
soldiers wife. The latter does not
have to meet the shock of battle nor
suffer from the miasma of fevers. But
she a imagine untold suffering in he,
quiet life at home.
Similarly, it is probable that the
wives of public men worry a good dea,
more about attacks on their husbands
than do the men themselves, who are
used to the rough and tumble of politics.
Modern social dress parade places a
heavy strain on women in public life.
1t ought to be sufficient for them te
supply a quiet and peaceful home life,
where their husbands would find re
freshment after the contentious and
toll of the day.
The customs of political centers
make the wives Of public men social
leaders. They must entertain digni-
taries in an attractive fashion, must
maintain an appearance of social ease
and charm, remove friction, subject
themselves to critical, comment, meet
the intrusions of ambitious persons,
and live in a 1utter and turmoil.
Mrs. Wilson, not satisfied with meet
ing all obvious duties, generously tried
to uplift the slums of Washington.
Her case is a conspicuous instance of
the many women who attempt tasks
beyond their power to fulfill. Life in
the social limelight is one of strain.
The greatest kindness the public can
confer is to let the wives of public men
enjoy q quiet family life so far as is
possible.

MEAT FAMINE IMMINENT.

Economic experts of the Federal
government are giving the high cost of
living problem thoughtful consideration
and are investigating the high prices
of meat. The department of agricul-
ture has just completed = census of the
meat-producing animals of the United
States and finds that there has been a
decrease of 4,183, 600 head and an in
crease of $176, $50, 600 in value during
the past year. On January 1, 1914,
the herd numbered la, 5O7, 600, COM
pared with 148, $50, 900 head a year ago.
The bulk of the nations decreased
meat supply is in the swine herd.
Compared with last year the number
of hogs in the United States has d.
minished 2, 1876, 600 head; cattle It's, 600
head and sheep 1,763, 600 head. The
major portion Of the increased values
is credited to the beef animals. The
value of all cattle, excluding mich
cows. when compared with last year,
shows an increase of $166. 6S8, 600;
swine have gained So. 842, 600 in value,

there has been the necessity of clear

has not become necessary in this
county. The two failures 81 banks in

H FATHERLAND.

1.-THE Fatherland" is a new publica-
ton in New York devoted to Fair
Play for Germany and Austria" In
its foreword or preamble the magazine
says:
LIT is the purpose of this publication
to place the German side of this I'M
happy quarrel fairly and squarely be-
fore the American people. Hitherto
the American Press has offered its
readers a quite amazing volume of
anti-Teutonic prejudice in place of his
torical information. The fact that the
German people are engaged in a
desperate struggle for existence against
Cossack aggression is absolutely ig-
nored.
I'm the case of some papers this is
due to b palrabie. sinister and thor
oughly disinaanuous malice. But in
the case Of others it obviously springs
from an honest misunderstanding. For
years ali European news dealing with
German policies has ONE to America
filtered through British, i. e. Prusso-
phobe sources, and this out of sheer
economy. The consequence is that
Americans have not had a fair chance
to form a fair judgment Of the real
issues. It is the aim of this publica-
ton to afford that fair chance by CIV
ing Americans the facts as Germans
see them from the best available
sources.
ITO review, week by week, the at
titude of the American press, to COM
bat, as far as lies in our power, the
misstatements and prejudices of the
~Slavophile and the Ge~rman-hater, to
point out discrepancies and to protest
against injustice towards a race that
has rightfully earned the sympathy
and admiration instead of the jealousy
of the so-called civilized world for its
industry, its art, it's philosophy and
it's humanity"
