 It will be noticed that the Provf- dence securities debentures, discussed by Senator BuIkeIey, amount to $19,- S99,000. Thees bonds are at four per cent interest
 The new bond issue which this bill would make possible, said MT. Buck land, is needed to pay off old bonds that fall due within the next three years and to make needed improve 1aeIasa.
 The New Haven does not intend in any way to repudiate the Providence Securities debentures discussed by Senator Bulkeley, he said, but does not believe that they should be given any better guarantee than they now possess Should this bill pass, the Providence bonds VIII be just as good as they are now The purchasers of these bonds when they bought them did not expect to be secured by a mortgage on the New Haven road and should not be.

Military Preparedness.

Some years ago, when he was president of
the United States, Theodore Roosevelt an
nounced that the best way to end war was
to be prepared for it, and SO thoroughly pre-
pared that the other fellow would not 'pick
the quarrel" that would involve the nation
That is rather a fine theory, and it works
out among school boys because the fellow
who is bigger and stouter and more alert
with his fists is generally respected in peace
by the smaller ones of the student body; but
this preparedness appears to have had no
restraining influence in Europe because
the military countries of the world, which
have been prepared for years, are now en-
gagged in a conflict the end of which no man
can today forecast.
Recently we have heard much from the
military men of this country about the Unit
ed States being unprepared for any char
acter of military conflict; that the coast
defenses are inadequate and that the navy
is of too few units to be able to control
any portion of the seas in the event we meet
one of the great powers. There now comes
the announcement that the aide of Major
General Leonard WoOd-co-operating with
other officers of the army-is unofhcially
organizing the American Legion, which is
to be the first reserve of this country
in the event of hostilities The National
Guard of the various states would go first
and then the reserve corps would be called
on. Theodore Roosevelt, true to his manner
and custom, has been one of the first to
join this great movement, and repeats his
theory that preparedness means more for
peace than otherwise.
There is no doubt that in this country
there will be many to enroll in this legion.
The people of the United States are patri-
otto; they have a love for the flag and love
for the land in which they live but with
Whelming for peace. We want no conflict
with our neighbors. There is no war party
in this country; the military spirit is ram
pant only on dress parade upon holiday oc-
lcasions.
1t may be we'll to have this American Lee
-gion that will be composed of reserves, but
when it is organized, when there is strength
shown to our military department and our
naval forces we should not wear a chip.
There should be no strutting and prancing,
inviting trouble, but rather let us continue
to be the opponents of peace, and impress
upon all the world that our only desire Is
to be allowed to occupy our place as one of
the nations of the world, unhindered by 9TH
ers and hindering none in its sphere of influ-
ence and activity in the pleasures and pur-
suits of a happy people.

The Price of w ar.

At Geneva there arrived the other day
$500 men, some Frenchmen, some Ger
mans. All are manned That is, they have
lost an arm or leg or else they are blind
or so badly wounded in some other way that
there is no chance of their ever bearing arms
again. They are the vanguard of the army
of useless war prisoners to be exchanged.
They may be worth something to their
countries when peace comes again" says
the Savannah News, "but many of them will
be helpless dependents. Before the war
they were strong and hearty men, some day
laborers, some university graduates who
held high positions, some professional men,
All are now mere wrecks. That is what
war does Perhaps their wives and their
children are glad to get back from the hor-
rors of war even these human remnants,
but many of them will be unable after the
war to earn a living for themselves, and will
be burdens upon their families. One of the
best commentaries on war is this exchang-
ing of its derelicts.'
