NATIONAL DEGENERACY.
Lincoln Abhorrsd Oppression
and Despised Hypocrisy.

The speech of Abraham Lin.
coin in 1855 regarding the polit-
ical situation and the tendency
to disregard the rights Of human
beings to life. liberty and the
pursuit of happiness is striking
" applicable to the condition Of
affairs in this country at the
present time. .~
Mr.. Lincoln said:
IL am not a Know Nothing
that IL certain How could be-?
How can any one who abhors
the oppression Of the Negroes
be in favor of degrading classes
Of white people? Our progress
In degeneracy appears to me to
be pretty rapid. As a nation we
began by declaring that all men
arc created equal
I'VE now practically read 1t.
All men are created equal ex-
cept Negroes When the Know
Nothings get control 1t will read.
All men are created equal ex-
cept Negroes and foreigners and
Catholics.'
when It comes to that !
3 should prefer emigrating to some
country where they make no
pretense of loving liberty-to
Russia, for instance. where des-
potism can be taken pure and
without the base alloy Of hypoc-
risy."

Before she died Mary Willis told
the story to her landlady, Mrs: Leona

When Mary's nerves got to the
jangling point she talked it over with
this other girl. The other girl told
her how, since she had become tele-
phone operator, she had reached the
point where she didn't care what hap
pened because of the WEAKNESS and
nervousness. Then she took a little
morphine one day because another
girl told her what relief it would
bring.
After she started taking it, the girl
told Mary, she didn't mind the whirl
of the days work at the switchboard
nor the howl of the exchange man
ayers for more speed, nor even the
constant seedlings of the subscribers.
''It sounds terrible" the girl said,

that she couldn't get away from the

Then Mary got married. Her hus-

So Mary decided that it wasn't fair
to her husband to continue the habit. |

OURS MOST EXPEN-
SIVE ARMY ON EARTH

From Capper's Weekly.
The army of Switzerland has
been suggested as a good ex-
ample for the United States to
follow.
Switzerland is a nation of 81
million people. Yet without
maintaining a standing army of
any magnitude, it has always in
readiness a disciplined army of
half a million men. We have
less than 100000.
This sort of preparedness is
effected by Switzerland at an an
nual cost of 6 million dollars, as
against 125 million dollars spent
by the United States on the
army, military posts, fortifca-
tions and the most highly paid
army officers in the world.
By the Swiss plan, their young
men undergo military training
for limited time a few months
in the year for three years.
In fact, with a smaller actual
force of trained soldiers, though
a far larger standing army, the
United States spends more mon
ey every year in pensions of it's
retired army and navy officers,
not to speak of the active SER
vice, than it costs the Swiss
people all told for their national
defense.
This only illustrates the we'll
known fact that the United
States army and navy are main
tanned at the greatest cost in the
world.
