London. Sept. Surprising any
thing of the kind the world has ever
known, the war budget was yesterday
introduced in the house of commons
hv ReginaliMcKenna, chancellor of the
exchequer. 1t calls for an expendlt-
.ure of $25. 100000 daily.
New military requirements ana
changed methods of warfare have
&, eated over night additional expendlt-
ures. These had not been reckoned
with even in the comparatively recent
estimates of David Lloyd George, the
munitions minister, necessitating this
budget Tuesdays budget is the third
since the outbreak of hostilities, and
calls for the most drastic and far
reaching taxes in the history of the
country and involves even free trade
Hereafter automobiles, bicycles,
motion picture films, clocks, watches
musical instruments, plate glass ana
hats will pay tax of 33 1-3 per cent

plained. the objects Of such taxation
are purely temporary and without re

However, what / meant to say was that
General Nash has become so infatuated with
himself, and with the office of Adjutant Gen
eral, that he is demanding life-term for
himself-a remainder over to his oldest son
to be added later, perhaps.
General Nash may be good man: I do
not say that he isn't; but he has not made
favorable impression by demanding that our
State system be revolutionized in his be-
half.
We do not need military autocrat, hold
ing office for life.
Federal judges have sufficiently proven to
this country the undesirableness of life

They are undemocratic, and they are dan
gerous.
Let us not have any Germanizing Of

Let the officer of the spiked helmet ride
over the Germans, if it suits them; but we
don't want any life-term spiked helmet
martinels riding over Us.
What's more, we are not going to have it.

Ii Seems that Georgia Needs a
Life Term Military AutOcrat.

IT HE German idea seems to be taking root
among the militarists of our country.
It may not be long before our officers will
be wearing spiked helmets, and ordering the
troops to fire upon any lame shoemaker that
laughs at the Army, as was done last year
at Zabern, in Germany.
Military fever is a most contagious dis
ease, and it has spread into our schools and
colleges in a most beautiful way.
Even the church schools teach the dear
boys two lessons, with equal earnestness and
effectiveness: one is, how to convert fellow
creature, and the other is, how to shoot
him.
Naturally, the boys often get the lessons
reversed and they shoot before they con-
vert.
This is what you might call high state
of Christian civilization; and we are i'm
mensely pleased with it.
When I see an advertisement of a religi-
GUS school, showing the dear boys all dressed
In warlilIe uniform, and carrying swords and
guns, [ involntarily tap myself ON the head
to see if it sounds hollow
Being modest man, / would prefer to
believe that 1t IS I, who am crazy, rather
than the bishops, and archbishops, and the
cardinals who serve the Prince of Peace by
teaching young men the noble science of
military murder

EDITORIAL NOTES

GENERAL weeks ago Mayor Thompson,
- of Chicago, adopted unique way of
settling street car strike that promised to
tie up traffic, cost the city huge sum of
money, and result in boodshed and loss of
life.
Mr. Thompson persuaded the street car
officials to meet the strike leaders in his
office, and, when they had assembled for the
conference, locked the doors and kept them
locked until the warning factions came to
an agreement and made FRIENDSHIP made
prisoners out of officials and labor leaders,
and made them avoid a situation that would
have seriously damaged the entire city
Recently a strike was on at the Standard
Oil plant at Bayonne, n. j., and conditions
were fast becoming as bad as they were at
Roosevelt, n. j., during the strike at the.
fertillzing plants, which terminated in a
gang of hired thugs shooting down a score
of unotfending men, who had simply left
their work, and were peacably assembled on
the public property of the town.
At Bayonne, the same class of guards
hired thugs and gunner from across the
river in New York-had been put on duty,
and riots were in order, causing terror
throughout that section.
The local police officials could not, or
would not, handle the situation: the Cover
nor would not order out the militia, and
anarchy prevailed until the Sheriff of the
county took the bull by the horns and set
tied the whole thing somewhat after Mayor
Thompsons way
The Sheriff first chuczed the hired guards,
who had begun to shoot down people, in jail !;
then took charge of the local police, and
made them take the oath of deputy sherifs;
then slapped the face of professional agi-
tator, and put him in jail; called mass
meeting of the strikers in defiance of the
local authorities, and persuaded the men to
go back to work
This Sheriff knew what the contention of
the men was; what the Standard Oil Com
pany contended for; and when he made it
clear to both sides that he was playing fair
and would brook no outside interference

What justice is there in taking the taxes
off the million-dollar endowment of

If the church doesn't pay it, the plain people

The assaults that are being made upon
fundamental democratic principles emanate
from the church hierarchies; and the assault
which Gambler is leading tends toward ex-
acHy the same goal, as that which the CALI
van attack seeks to reach.
The road that Gambler is on leads back to
the union of Church and State, and the
road Galliyan is on leads back to the licens-
ing OF printing.
Gamblers bill, in its effects. would tax
everybody for the benefit of the churches
while Galivan's bill would prevent the pub
lication of just such editorial as this.
The two great iberators of the human
race have been the free press, and the sep
arate State.
Gambler is struggling to restore one of
these abuses, and Gallivan, the other.

from anybody, he easily persuaded the Oil
Company to yield some, and the strikers to
accept the company's offer and get back to
work
It's rather refreshing to read Of an coca
slonal occurrence OF this l1ind-to sec that
public official IS able to rise to the occasion
and handle situation that promises to do
great harm to the whole community.
In cases like the above, there is no ilI-feel-
ing left between employer and empoyee-it
IS not like where the men are forced back to
work by brute force Or starvation-where
guards Or the militia are used to intimidate
one faction into accepting the terms Of the
other-for the agreement is brought about
by one in whom both sides have confidence
and the spirit that prevails forward is
friendly.
Since going West, Colonel Rcosevelt's trip
has been almost continuous ovation, and in
every speech he has made he has stated his
position on the European situation in Just
as positive terms as Roosevelt knows how to
use, ana is drawing the line squarelv between
his position and that Of the Administration.
Roosevelt is taking the position that this
Government took during the, war of 1872
that the high seas belong to no nation. but
are public highway, upon which the com
merce of nations is entitled to travel free
and unmolested, except as restricted bv the
law OF nations under certain conditions,
which are clearly set forth by treaty.
There is no doubt but that this view is the
view of the great ma jority of American peo-
pie, and, our position being so clear to every
one, SO much letter writing between Wash
ngton and Europe is beginning to tax our
patience.
We are beginning to feel that our Govern
ment should either do something, or keep
quiet. and give us a rest from the Alphonse
and CASTOR stunt, and it is no wonder that
Mr.. Roosevelt has jumped into popular
leadership of not only those inclined to be
militant, but those who believe in demanding
self respect.
While Mr.. Wilson has been 'Ewatchfullv
waiting" Mr.. Roosevelt has been shouting
ito hell with molly Goddess" and it is dead
sure fact that Roosevelt is catching the peo-
pie.
With Mr.. Bryan campaigning on "peace
at any price" platform, and Mr.. Roosevelt
on an "America for Americans platform
the Administration is left in very ticklish
position.
The radicals against war are with Mr..
Bryan, while those who think we ought to
show that we are not afraid to fight for our
rights are foc1ing to Roosevelt, and unless
Mr.. Wilson puts time limit on his diplo-
matte correspondence, he will find that he is
left out in the cold with nobody to keep him
company.
1t has been six months since we first
stated our position to the European powers
and the people think that the time has come

REMOVED TO HOSPITAL.
Old Confederate Veteran Meets With
Accident.

Mr.. Nichols, an old Cos federate
veteran is III at the Emergency Hos
pital where he was removed from the
place he called ''home" an old shack
in the woods back of West Annapolis,
an outhouse on the old Giddings es-
tate
The man is very poor He met with
an accident on Wednesday last when
returning to his home after having
walked to the city to sell some little
garden truck to earn a few pennies.
The old man, feeble, very feeble, at
best. became so weak he fell by the
wayside, striking his head against a
sycamore tree in the roadway, be-
coming unconscious. In the fall one
of his ribs was fractured.
He was found lying there uncon-
scious and soaked with the rain, for
last Wednesday was horrible day as
to weather conditions. He was picked
up by Mr.. Sweeting, and carried to
his shack at West Annapolis, where
what could be done for him was done.
Friends in Annapolis only heard yes
terday of the old mans illness and ac-
cident, and forthwith took steps to
have him removed to the Emergency
Hospital. The removal was accom-
plished through the kindness and cour-
tesy of Medical Director James G.
Field, U. S. NJ, who loaned the use of
the navy ambulance for the purpose.
The old man was found suffering
from his injury, lying on broken cot.
too short for him, with his feet rest
ing on a chair near the door which was
frequently opened. Flies were lester-
ing him and there was no fly netting
to protect him from such annoyance.
There was no money TO buy food or
medicine, and his condition was
pitiable.
He is made as comfortable ss pos
sibe at the hospital where it was
found he was suffering from a frac-
tured rib, and internal injury.
