Return Of the ESsnyIst.

We don't hesitate to make noise about our
business. We put up hurrah about things
which we know in our hearts rotten and
think that smile will make others think as
We want them to think. But if somebody else
adopts our tactics we make an awful holler like
an author whose idea has been stolen was
down Norfolk the other day--ever hear of
Norfolk! If YOU heard of Norfolk YOU
never heard OF any place. Well. man down
there nearly knocked me off the sidewalk by
showing advertisement of a church which
had inserted picture Of the Savior in the paper.
The man thought it going pretty far That
man didn't hesitate to have his picture in
the paper in connection with something he never
had anything do with. l don't think much
Of any religion that won't stand publicity. The
church that put that adj in the papers is on

Two Kinds of Conservation

NY IL the BrltlSn working classes Stan0
w almost as unit in opposition to con-
scription-one of the reasons at any rate
is shown with much clarity by writer in the
London Daily Chronicle. who declares the
demanded sacrifice places the whole emphasis
on life and disregards money. If there is to
be CONSUMPTION of men. he says there must
be also conscripton of property, and con-
tnues:
When tho conscriptionist talks of
compnlSion for men, he is exact and
precise. SO many to into
the army, many into munitions
many into necessary industries: all
the iesl and blood is dclicatcly parcclcd
out. 1t is only when come to
finances that vagucness begins All
that be said about this is that
must he careful not to bankrupt
selves: that our financial stability Is
necessary To for just continuation
OF the war and the like No If
to ACCEPT conscripton at ALL we must
have before MS a system that does no;
fill us with distrust and suspicion
system that aims At all classes and not
only the mass of the workers. When
have that system there will be
som" likelihood of the working men and
their leaders facing ii with something
other than rcsolutc hostility
There will he some difficulty, we imagine
in evading the force OF that argument
There was time when property was every
thing and human life nothing, but that time
has sped The thought of to-day makes
different distribution Of its accents
1t is true that war taxes are making heavy
inroads on large fortunes, but they bear even
more heavily, in a relative sense on the
slender capital and modest earnings of the
poor. If mans life is TO be at the service
Of the state, should his material posses
sions, down to the last farthing There is
small sense and less justice in demanding one
and eXcmpting the other.
When military service is mere matter of
voluntary giving, the case is different Then
one man may give his life for his country and
another battleship or the equipment OF
battery of artillery leaving it to the casuists
to determine which has made the larger and
more honorable sacrifice. Not so, in a de-
mocracy, at any rate, when the element of
volition is excluded and the state takes what
its necessities require. If we are to believe
the war critics, the military need to-day Is
measured in francs. marks and pounds ster-
ling, quite as accurately as in manhood. skill
and vaor. The British proletariat insists
that when il comes to CONSUMPTION, blood and
gold shall be placed on equal footing
is over. Despite all the protests. conscrip-
ton becomes more and more probable as it
becomes more and more necessary. When
the time arrives we shall expect to see Lloyd
George the chief protagonist OF the new
policy-perhaps the head of new govern
mcnt-and that policy itself partaking of the
Lloyd George radicaism and humanitarian
ism, rather than of the Toryism Of Kitchener
and BOnar Law.

Fairfax Wants That VIII
