k is rumored that two of the mem bsrs Of the Westerly town council wifl net be candidates for reelection next month. They are Albert H. Lang worthy and c. Clarence Maxson, both members of the present highway com mittee and among the most active members of the council. So war as can be learned Councilman Maurice W. Flynn, William Culley, WayIand A. Saunders. Charles B. Thomas and Francis G. Haswe1l would accept re- nomination, which is equivalent to election as all are republicans.
 With few exceptions, it has been the euseom to reeiect members of the town council and for that reason it has not been possible to make the council really representative by hav- ing four members from one and three members from the representative vot- ing districts, though this matter has been suggested at several caucuses of the rspub11can party which is dom- inaat in Westerly.

Hustria's Declaration of War.

The sudden and uncalled for declaration of war by
Austria against Serva has precpitated panic in Europe
The peace of the world is in imminent danger and havoc
has already befaen the business interest of nations
wise connected with the embroglo The markets of the
world have felt shrnkage in values of securities which
were low enough before the present depression.
The rush to armswi furnish new material for thought
The historical optss who have contended that modern
civilization would dispel the idea of world war
may now see tn ,r views ii sipated The warke attitude
of several nations in recent years proves that the human
race is still made up of large number of savages and
that civilization is merely thin coat of varnsh easily
rubbed off when interests affected Our advance
has been in line of personal comforts and Intellectual
bettermens, but with all achievements we do not
appear to have increased the supply of milk Of human

Seeing War SpOOkS.

Another naval officer, Rear Admiral Bradley A. Fske,
has discovered that the United States is position of
real danger of naval attack. The logic by which he
arrives at this conclusion is this: Our country disncin
ed to war and warshps, because of the increase of luxury
IN civilization. Now, says Admiral Fiske the fact
that any country is markedly disinclined to war makes
that ly extremely ,onsve to pressure exered by
country which is not disinclined This necessitaes
greater navy than would be otherwise required in order
to overcome the diplomatic handicap produced
This profound truth being clear mud, he goes on
to point out that present navy would be inadequate
even if not disinclned to war; and 'ths danger
Is combined with another danger which is that we have
continuous diplomatic service and cannot cope with the
highly trained diplomats Of foreign powers.
After this outflow of wisdom who can doubt that it is
our duty to double the present navy, up naval bill
to 900 year and incidentally bestow the rank of
vice admiral on Rear Admiral Fiske-N. O. States

BUR Moosers on Democratic Committees.

The Verniian News thinks that all Bull Moosers now
holding positions democratic committees should resign
and refusal to resign should be pushed off, The great
trouble with the democratic party in louisiana grows out
OF the refusal of democratic voters to drentate between
candidates who real democrats and those who
democrats in only. In the last campaign large
body of voters cast their ballots for candidates who
openly opposed to every tenet of the party Some Of
these elected, hence have chaos in our
politics. When candidate before election has openly
expressed his views and these views contrary to the
principles Of the party and notwithstanding the candidate
has been elected it then shows bad grace the part OF
the voter to wall about his position public issues
The best thing for democrats to do to concern them
selves with the views of their canddateelect the
right men, and worry less about the Bull Moosers
