ward a lasting peace. Woman and
man need each other spiritually as
well as physically, asserts Senator
H%ansbrough. Woman :s more i'm
mediately the victim CT the war than
man, why then aaCu.d not she be
heard in conferences where war is
declared and peace terms adjusted?
asks the senator. Woman is at her
best as a comrade, as a confidante,
as a trusted helpmeet. 1t is such a
woman. in the concrete, who is des-
tined to restore the state to normal
conditions, in full partnership with
man. Woman may also aid the
cause OF peace by teaching her
daughters to love, not the dashing
young %lieutenants in uniforms, but
the mel of spiritual temperament
who find life's rewards in the pus-
suit of the higher things Of life.
That is, woman must use her inflL.

professional warriors have arrogated
to themselves and which social lead

REDFIELD LISTING.

Secretary of Commerce Redtield
seems to be listing.
He is reported to have made the
following statement during the re-
cent Eastland investigation:
81 don't believe that tle stability
of a boat should be inspected any
more than your tall buildings are in
spected for stability. The matter of
stability, as we'll as all plans Of the
ship, are left to the builder"
This was cold comfort to Chicago
outraged by a disaster directly at
tributable to inefficient federal in
s%pection.. No wonder that the city
was indignant and several of it's
officials are calling loudly for his
removal from Office. ,.,
Secretary Redfield started to in
yestigate the investigators. His
ann of cross examining wit
nesses was captious and at times
fiippant. Such wanton disregard of
public sentiment wholly %disqualifies
Secretary Redfield for the position
he holds.
Surely the licensing Of any craft
must be predicted upon the stability
Of the boat. The department of com.
merce had several warnings as to the
shortcomings of the Eastland, but
there is no record that any vigorous
attempt was made to drive the death
ship from passenger service.

WAR AND WOMEN.

Henry Clay H%ansbrough, United
States Senator from 1891 to 1906,
from North Dakota, has written a
book, just off tie press, entitled
"War and Women" an exposition OF
mans failure as a harmonizer. AS
he has failed, it devolves on woman
to abolish war which is the authors
argument for universal peace. AS
the announcement Of a public Official
Of twenty years experience, the book
is bound to attract considerable no
tice. The following is a resume of
his work:
In the opening chapter he states
that all of the larger belligerent
powers engaged in the present war,
are responsible for it. In the second
chapter, he shows that the military
arm is a power almost supernatural
dLu ludL III 6OVcI Al4CAto AdFC UCCn
strong enough to withstand it's in
sidious influence.
Those who profit financially by the
war are able to maks their wishes
paramount everywhere. The United
States will have to give up her fool
isl policy of isolation, and take
part in the great world arena of in
te%rnational politics. She must do
tlis not alone for her own sake, but
for the establishment of a perma-
nent world peace.
The Monroe doctrine, he asserts,
must be abandoned, and this country
should form an alliance with Eng.
land and France, the two foremost
free governments Of Europe. The
English people, like ourselves, are
anxious for an understanding that
will put the Anglo.Saxon rae on a
peace footing .
