We are neutral here in the

say we are; and we want to see
peace restored in war torn Eu-

the dove of peace would now

Jne pOpulace tine freedom OF CnOugnC
and speech in politics or the Christian
virtues following the free exercise of
their own conscience in religious matters,
has brought himself under condemnation
of the aristocratic element of his time his
character maligned and bIackened by char
acter assassins, and often leading to his
death by the assassin's knife or bullet.
Socrates, the great Grecian philosopher,
though belonging to the artitocratic ele-
ment when he began teaching the moral
virtues and the Immortality of the soul to
the populace, the sophists, who were the
aristocrats and ruling element, prosecuted
him and eventually secured death SEN
tence against him, and he was forced to
drink the deadly hyssop. Tiberius and
Caius Gracious were assassinated because
they were political champions of the ROM
an plebians against the patricians. Julius
Caesar excited the jealousy of the Roman
senate because he was a popular idol of
the people, and they had him assassinated.
Martin Luther opposed the sale of indulg-
ences and other corrupt practices in his
church and was accommodated, and
only escaped death by the rivalry and jeal-
ousy of the ruling powers. John Calvin,
Peter Waldo, the great French merchant
prince, became social outcast and suf-
fered great persecution at the hands OF the
ruling classes because he opposed corrupt
practices in the church and taught the
Christian virtues to the populace. John
Calvin offended the ruling classes by his
austere religious views, and was forced to
expatriate himself, and remained an exile
in Switzerland the remainder Of his life.
The early cQlonists of America sought
a home among savages and wild beasts Of
the jungle that they might be permitted to
worship God as their conscience dictated.
Roger Williams, assistant curate in the
established church of England at Dover,
Massachusetts, took the high ground that
the civil authorities should not have juris-
diction in matters purely Of conscience and
he was ordered by the authorities to return
to, England, but preferred to go alone
among savages hence he settled at Provi-
dence, r. l.
When Patrick Henry defended the peo-
pie against the oppressive tobacco tax
fixed by the established church of Eng,
land, he was characterized as dangerous
demagogue.
Sam Adams, Benjamin Franklin and
Patrick Henry opposed the right of the
home government to tax the colonies
without representation, and advocated the
rights of men above those of kings, and,
for this, would have been hung for sedi-
lion if the English authorities could have
laid hands upon them.
Thomas Jefferson was severely de-
nounced by his political enemies as dem
agogue and dangerous to American insti-
buttons, because he advocated demo-
,ratic government.

! MODERN BAY0NETS.
Rigid Tests They Must Pass Before
They Go Into Service.

Rigid Tests They Must Pass Before
They Go Int Service.
Any soldier win tell you that moth
ing in his equipment wears better than
his bayonet. for this few inches Of
steel seldom snaps or loses its shape
however great the strain imposed upon
it. This Is because the modern bay
met has to pass through twenty-three
severe tests before it is considered At
to be attached to soldiers gun. a
bayonet blade is forged from the
finest steel, and the first stage Of its
manufacture consists Of heating 1t UNI
til red hot, when It Is placed under a
hammer which deals 1900 blows a
minute. This process results in the
original piece of steel being hammer
ed out to twice its length. The bar is
then heated again and rolled between
two huge iron cylinders, which press
1t into the rough shape Of blade.
Emery wheels then grind its edges un-
til they are as sharp as a razor.
| Altogether the bayonet passes through
200 processes before it is ready for the
testing room.
The first test applied to the polished
blade is the striking" test. A steel
arm grips the bayonet and with great
force drives it against solid piece of
wood. A badly produced blade snaps
like a needle, but good piece Of steel
energies from this severe test with its
edges straight and unblunted.
Then comes the bending test. The
point of the bayonet is firmly gripped
in vice. and 1t is bent and twisted
into part Of circle If 1t survives
this ordeal the blade is placed straight
up under a heavy weight attached to
lever. The steel is bent beneath the
| weight. and to pass this test it must
| lift up the mass of iron by its own
| elasticity.
However badly bent, good bayOnet
should spring back perfectly straight.
and it is tested for this quality before
leaving the factory. The blade Is
placed on a curved block, the point be
ing secured in hole. The bayOnet is
then bent to the curvature OF the
block, and when released it must
spring, back to its original straightness
to satisfy the rigid ruling Of the In
spector. Altogether bayonet has to
lpass twenty-three tests with regard to
its accuracy and strength.-London
