NEW YORK. Aug 6.-Hats off to
Fred Merkle, the Giants first base
man, who is now cavorting around in
the outfeld. Probably no man has
been censured by both critics and the
public as has Merkle since he broke
into the major leagues. But now
Fred has the laugh on every one.

THE RISING TIDE OF MILITARISM

Again we note how the tide of mitarsm rises This
week the annual convention of governors of the states is
meeting in Boston, and only did the several state ex
ecutiyes agree advance that the chief subject OF dis

state of Massachusetts mobozed its entire national
guard to parade before the visitors 1t will cost the state
twenty-five thousand dolars-it would be unlawful to
appropriate one thousand to give work to men unem-
ployed But what is twenty-five thousand dollars when
the German rechstag will be occupied during the week
in appropriatng twenty-five hundred million dollars
more for war purposes Every dollar spent for rational
preparing for defense would save thousand if war
should come and perhaps in preventing war.
The difficulty is there is such thing as rational pre-
pairing for war When the spirit seizes nation rea-
son DEPARTS defense is forgotten and the spending for
aggression goes forward.
If the nations of Europe had not been well prepared
for war there would have been But with half the
world mad there seems alternative for the other half
but to against it.
BY the way these conferences of governors have been
greatly disappointing When they began much was ex-
pected of them in the way of suggested legislation and
especially of uniform legislation for the various states
But they have degeneraed into mere pleasure unkets-
and after all governors in general not ADLER than

from their session of week than from sessions of con-
gress continuing for months and sometimes for years?

FOR A WORLD DEMOCRACY

"The Union of Democratic Control" is the name of a
movement started in London year ago. just after the
outbreak Of the war; which has grown in Great Britain
with amazing rapdity and which has sounded the key
note which universal peace can be permanently based
The bottom principle which the Union is founded
is that shall be declared by any nation until
the question has been submitted to the people and their
favorable verdict has been given
If this had been done in the of the present war
there would have been Even the people Of Ger
many Loyalty as they have supported their military lead
ers would probably have deliberately voted to de-
clare war against Russia France and Great Britain and
there is increasing reason for believing that if the matter
submitted to the people of Germany today they
would for peace Certainly the people Of every other
nation involved would do so.
Another principle Of the Union is "No province shall
be transferred from government to another without
the consent of the population of such province"
The influence of such proposal as this in favor Of
peace is too apparent to require explanation
Other features of the policy of the Union look to the
securing of democratic control of the foreign policies of
all nations and the creation Of an international Council
the decisions of which in international affairs shall be
binding upon the nations.
The fundamental idea of the Union is, clearly that
the government Of every people shall be based the
sent of the governed and this the transformation
of all the governments of the world into republics.

"After having pruned the general
appropriation bill to the extent Of
nearly one million dollars, which even
then does not bring It nearly within
tho income, provided for the state,
/ have convened the legislature in
extra session for the purpose Of con-
sidering revenue measures and I am
hopeful that there may be some re-
suits that will prove generally salts
factory to the people Of the state.
ut would place an unreasonable
burden Of liability upon an admins.
tration II 1t were required to shoulder
an appropriation bill carrying ap.
pro&imately three million dollars
more than the sources of income
would provide for the biennial period,
and that in few words, prompted me
to tho action which I took. 1t is a
constitutional obligation OF the legis.
lature to provide revenue to carry. on
tho states business and maintain the
varied educational and clcemosynary
institutions and where the revenue is
lacking, the appropriations should be
made accordingly.
No Pride Of Opinion.
ut has been suggested In the Demo.
cratic press that some so-called ideal
revenue bill of mine, which failed OF
passage, was responsible for my hay.
ing vetoed the :appropeation bill. In
my message to the legislature on the
subject OF finance, l pointed out n
half dozen or moro methods, and one
of which would have met with my
approval. and any one Of good many
other methods would have been aC.
ceptable 10 me.
1.-THE legislature has faiied to pro.
vide for the deficit which found OK,
listing in the treasury when became
governor and the revenue is quite
short of the amount called for in the
appropriation bin. which is violation
of article 10, section 8 OF the consti.
tuition OF the state. This being true,
there was no alternative other than
to keep the legislature in session un.
I'll such provision is made.
at cannot be truthfully said that
the state government is conducted
on an extravagant basis. but on the
contrary the state OF West Virginia
gets greater amount out OF every
dollar expended than any other state
OF the Union. This is attested by the
fact that our per capita cost is lower
than in many other states. Our state
institutions are conducted on basis
that shows that there is no cxtrava.
gance, whatever.
81 believe that those who have spe.
cial privileges from the state should
assume their proportional part of the
tax burdens in return for these con.
slderations. ] do not desire that It
should be said that the business Of
the state was run in a haphazard way
during my administration and that
liabilities were made which could not
be taken caro- of as was the condition
