The circle banner. [volume] (Circle, Mont.) 1914-1939, 1915-01-29

According to a clipping handed
us by a friend here the other day
Rep. John Gerlach of Minnesota
has introduced a bill permitting
cities of the fourth class to levy a
tax for the maintenance Of village
bands. This certainly is a good
bill and one that should be passed.
We would suggest that one of our
Representatives introduce a sim
liar bill in this state.
Commenting upon this bill the
Minneapolis Daily News has this
to say:
THE small town without a band
doesn't know it's alive. 1t is sour,
sordid, selfish, .unsociable. 1t has
no community consciousness indi-
viduality or pride. If its dry, it's
likely to be a stamping ground of
hypocrisy; it it's wet, it is probably
the hang-out of drunkards. With
out the inspiring, democratizing,
eminently social element of the
community band the town runs to
severe, unsocial extremes.
mo matter if the band is bad,its
influence on its town is good. It's
about the first thing that makes a
town feel that its really on the
map. 1t is a help to business, a
promoter of acquaintance, an aid
to matrimony. A town with
band on the job doesn't need the
county seat and doesn't have to.
beg very hard to get the Flyer toI
stop there.
1T isn't all in the music. Co.
operation is a big part of it. A
live band is the best preventive Of
a dead town."

sin, but women have as much right
as men. II God can save an impure

in he points out that in the history
Of civilized Nations we have had cen.
turtles OF war and only decades OF
peace. He wonders II this Is inevita.
BILE: II II Is a fateful course that can
not be changed; II civilized man is
to forget nothing and learn nothing;
II all the fine faculty OF a mounting
intelligence must expend its energy
in the treadmill OF war.
And DIR. Thwing points out some
other things that are interesting,
namely, that we have trained the fe-
rocity OF the wolf out of the dog; and
with care and infinite patience we
have bred viciousness out Of other
beasts, and domesticated them to
friendly and even affectionate rela.
tions with men, making them useful
in the service Of peace. The ques'
ton is not directly propounded, but
the suggestion is there: Is human
intelligence and the human con.
science less amenable to the rational
teachings of peace than are the
beasts of the field?
For the better part Of half a cen
fury the greater part Of Europe has
professedly spent the best Of its ener-
gies in furthering the progress OF
civilization through the constructive
arts and activities of peace. But sud
denly It is disclosed to us that all
this was but a mask to an ambition
and preparation for war. And now
the shock is upon us and war con-
sumes the fruits OF this half century's
labors in peace.
When peace comes again, is his
tory only to repeat itself? Arc we
to begin again in the same course OF
self-deception, and devote our best
thoughts and highest endeavor to
create. only that we may the more
terrifically and the more effectually
destroy? Is there no hope OF redemp-
tion from this treadmill destruction,
either in education or in the rational
mental poise and the spiritual in
sight of the race?-Portland (Ore,)

Discussing the Lusitania incident
in a speech at Philadelphia Monday,
President Wilson said: America
must have the consciousness that on
all sides II touches elbows and
touches hearts with all Nations OF
mankind. The example OF America
must be a special example and must
be an example not merely Of peace
because II will not fight, but because
peace is a healing and elevating in
fluence of the world and strife is not.
There is such a thing as a man being
too proud to fight. There is such a
thing as being so right that 1t does
not need to convince others by force
that II Is right"

HAS SERIOUS EYE TROUBLE.

Mayor W. W. Harris developed
serious trouble with his eyes a few
days ago and Is now in Dallas for
treatment. Since an examination
was made, n message to his family
states that one eye is entirely gone
with no hope OF II being restored.
The message also states an operation
is necessary to save the other and
this will be performed while he is
there. His many friends will deeply
regret to learn OF his misfortune. and
all unite in the hope that his illness
is not as serious as Is now thought.

Ebert HUBBARD.

II was no ordinary light that went
out when Ebert Hubbard went down
into the blackness OF the deep waters
In the sinking Of the Lusitania. A
star OF the first magnitude was sud
denly hurled from its place in the
armament Of letters and It's bright
light will be seen no more.
!. Ebert Hubbard had few equals as
a writer. His was the gift OF that
compelling force in the use OF the
written word that makes the pen
mightier than the sword. His was
the Eiit OF poesy not expressed 10
rhyme, yet making vibrant every
sentiment and emotion OF the human
heart. One stroke OF his pen was
like blast from the horn OF Roderick
Dhu, and the neighing OF war steeds
and the tramp OF marshaling forces
were heard Another. and the tears
OF a Nation gushed in sympathy for
the oppressed. the unfortunate, the
weak; and every heart was ready to
be laid upon the altar OF helpfulness,
OF sacrifice, of service. Yet another,
and the bow OF promise was hung in
the Bonded sky, the granaries OF the
earth were filed with the argosies
OF ripened haryests, peace brooded
DER the earth, the sable curtains of
night were drawn and a mother was
heard grooming her baby to sleep. All,
his was wonderful gift, and now II
is all hushed and silenced forever
more.
He had many peculiraities, many
peculiar views on great questions
which the world did not endorse. but
these were no bar to the universal
recognition OF his wonderful mind.
We met him Just once. az Dallas
few years ago. and had just a per.
sonal minute with him. but in that
minute we were cognizant Of the fact
we we're in the presence of genius.
He was born in Bloomington, ILL.,,
in 1850. He made himself widely
known as the originator and proprie-
tor OF the Roycroft Shop, in East
Eurora. n. Y, founded for the avow-
ed purpose Of reviving the old handi'
crafts, particularly that Of artistic
book binding. He also originated the
Philistine, a periodical devoted TO ex-
pressing a curios tumble OF shrewd
but generally kindly philosophy
which is sometimes marred by vul.
garity and personal vilfcation. His
other literary work includes series
OF biographical sketches published
under the caption, Little Journeys"
several pamphlets, such as "A Mes
sage to Garcia" (1S9S), which is a
vigorous arraignment of the careless
employe and of which about half
million copies were circulated, and

himself and as he was generally

which has met with great success.
His one visit to Texas was as the
guest OF the AID Clubs of Dallas and
Houston. While in Houston he was
entertained by the Press Club and
made an impression that brought him
many friends locally.
