Submarines. if Needed.
(Waterbury Democrat. )

The ship-building yards at Fore River, Mass, have turned out ten sub- marines for Great Britain in five months At that rate, American ship yards, private and public, could pro- vide Us with several dozen modern submarines in six months time, if they were needed We could take over those British boats, too, in an emergency just as tn British govern ment appropriated and paid for for eign-owned vessels of war that that were building or waiting for delivery in her shipyards when the war broke out. As matters stand, we may re- gard those ten submarines as pc tential reserve of our own navy. They couldn't be delivered to Great Brit ain anyhow, during the war, without violating our neutrality

ITALIAN VICTORIES.

An announcement from Rome today is to the effect that the Italian army has penetrated the country of it's nearest enemy to points two or three miles from the Italian border. Sever al points of vantage have been taken if the report is true, two points being on the railroads. Triest is but twenty miles from some of the captured towns.
 The attention of the American peo- pie is centered just now on the war. in that zone. The fighting will not occupy as many men as that on the western and eastern fronts but the entrance of a new power into the hos tilities will be watched with interest to ascertain the effect of an unknown factor. The. war on the other fronts has been in a deadlock for such a long period that it does not draw the interest that is felt in Italy and her. future.

Contributory Negligence on the Pub lie Highways.

Contributory Negligence on the Pub
 lie Highways.
 (New York Sun)
 :. Tn the thirty days of April sixty persons died in New York city as the result of street accidents, an average of two for each day, and 1884 were injured From the records of the police department it appears that eighty per cent. of these misadven- lures were the result of the careless conduct of the victims themselves. Four-fifths of the accidents attributed 10 incaution on the part of those who suffered from them occurred at street crossings.
 It is plain, therefore, that while ,.ecklessness on the part of motorists, drivers and street car men persists, the public cannot escape a great share of the blame for the dangers it finds in the highways of the town. The fact that in crossing streets person l should be particularly alert seems to l ignored by large proportion of those 1 who use the highways. This is con- l firmed by ordinary observation, and
 disregard for conditions that explain many of the injuries sustained. 1t is ] apparent, therefore, that the rigid en- l forcement of intelligent traffic regu- l lations must be applied not only to | the we'll recognized agencies of danger l but to those who are accustomed to l roam about with as little regard to ] their own safety as to that or others. I No person who has observed the
 habits of sNew Workers in the streets
 can have failed to have impressed on 1 him the inconsiderate and imprudent | manner in which vehicles are oper- 1 ated, nor the utter indifference with l which those who stand in imminent I Ieril from them regard the risks they I take. The first should be restrained 1 the second educated to ordinary pre- 1 ca ution for the preservation of their lives and limbs, and if this proves in 1 efTectual they too should be repressed
 for their own safety.

Time for Peace.
(Springfield Republican )

(Springfeld Republican.)
 If Europe were in a. reasonable frame of mind, the present moment would offer as good a chance for peace as there has been since Aug ust 1, and perhaps better than there is likely to be for some time to come. The action of. Italy makes more re- mote than every Germans chance of ultimate victory, yet the honors of war are still with German arms. It would be premature to assume that conquest will go no further, yet the territory occupied in Belgium, France and Russia is now large, and later It may shrink. If Germany should of fer peace in good faith and with not ulterior though of revenge later, it would be enormously to the interest of Europe to make terms, and they would be better terms than could be expected if the allies after long and ruinous struggle should get the up- per hand Unhappily what stands in the way is not only German pride but the fear of all the nations that a peace made now would be merely the pre- jude to a terrible revenge. The pack can barely hold the wild boar and dare not let go their, grip. It is a wonderful tribute to Germany's mili- tary power, but the outlook for peace is not bright.
