II is easier TO make war than II Is
TO restore peace. A nation may real
ize dimly the cost OF going 10 war.
Carried away by enthusiasm and pas
sion, IL seldom considers the greater
cost that may involve In falling in
war and being Obliged to ask for
peace.
Rumors of peace negotiations-of
roundabout attempts on the rart of
one set of belligerents TO get an
inkling of the terms acceptable to
the other set-will continue &c cir
culate. But peace will not be immi.
nent until one group Of combatants
becomes far more concerned about
ending the war than about the par
ticular conditions on which the war
is to end.
The return from Europe of Colonel
Edward NJ House. the Presidents
most intimate friend and counsellor,
will undoubtedly revive talk about
the inolinations toward peace OF the
governments which he has sounded.
The visit here of a Dutch subject
Dr.. Van Gheel Gildermeister who
had previously interviewed IN Berlin
Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg
and Herr on -Jagow, started similar
discussion ten days ago. Jt was
said that Dr. Gildermeister had as
certained that Germany would ash
from the Allies, the return Of colonies
(Kiao-Chou excepted), a new German
sphere of influence IN North Africa
and a reconstruction Of Poland Shit
would agree TO evacuate Belgium anC
would give France a strip of Alsace
Lorraine. II she were to be allowed
to annex Luxembourg.
These demands we're more moder
ate than any formulated up 70 tina
time by spokesmen for Germany
Yet at the same moment that the
were being put forward here tho Kin
of Bavaria was congratulating hi
subjects that the outcome of the wa
would give South Germany a bette
access to the sea-an access, natural
ly, either through Holland o
through Belgium.
The war so far has been prett
much of a draw Terms of peac
made now would therefore settl
none of the issues which precipitate
hostilitles and would noid out n
promise of tranquility for Europe
Unless one set or helligerent
triumphs and is able to re-establis
new continental equilibrium
Europe will remain an armed caml
with more national energy than eve
absorbed in preparation ror a ne'
struggle.
A peace of that sort would be ecc

A wAyERING, wOBBLING ADMINISTRATION.

While the American people haye pictured Wilson in

diplomatic troubles with Germany in which he has dis

EDITORIAL OPINION

share in the benefits Of modern prog
ress, to which not a few Of their
number have made notable contribu-
tions.
Under the present administration
leading members of Indian birth have
already received official recognition
through appointment. to civil posi-
tions. The appointment of Long
Lance to a cadetship is in keeping
with the attitude heretofore adopted
by Secretary Lane toward the So
called wards of the nation. No doubt
this latest recruit to the ranks Of
our protectors will more than con-
firm the promise of his name through
the development Of tactics far in ad-
vance of its somewhat obsolete sig
nifcance. At all events, he can lay
claim to a hyphenated combination
beyond the boast of even the proud
descendants of the Mayhower. for
none can gainsay that he is an Ameri-
can-American to the core.

there. or would she turn her hordes
loose upon other nations?
The people in The United States
who consider peace first and national
integrity afterVa ard have an object
lesson in China which cannot be ig-
nored. China's policy has been ex-
actly the policy which some Ameri-
cans favor. Peace without means Of
defense has brought present humilia-
tion and loss upon China, and the
aftermath is likely to- be woe and
disaster to Japan.
Let us have peace, but always self
respecting peace-peace that does
not involve sacrifice or honor or ma.
tional interest. The peace that pre-
serves itself by yielding slices oi
territory or tho rights of the people
! is mere Chinese peace, more dis.
graceful and costlier than war.

FORMER JUDGE GRAY AND PREPAREDNESS.

rSORMER JUDGE GEORGE GRAY of this State, is an
intelligent. minded, patriotic and peace
loving American citizen. He is recognized the world
being possessed of those attributes. Therefore
what he says relative TO this country in the situation in
which it finds itself a result OF the European
will command worldwide attention and respectful
consideration. In his country, State and city it
cannot fail to make profound impression upon think
ING people.
Judge Gray attended peace conference in Philadei-
phia yesterday 1t had been called by the National
Provisional Committee The object was to organize
a League of Peace, formed and directed to pro-
duce practical results. Associated with Judge Gray in
the list of speakers we're many Americans of promi-
nence including former President William Howard
Taft Judge Gray made It clear that while he believes
in world peace he also believes that the American army
and navy should be made strong that this country
will be in a position to defend itself against all COM
ers enforce its just demands upon any nation
which manifests a disposition to become an interna-
tonal outlaw.
Most Americans will agree with his declaration that
1t the duty of the United States to strengthen its
sea power that it may protect the highways and byways
of for the vessels Of all neutral nations,
and strengthen the army so it may serve as the
upon which the citizen soldery OF the States
may be built as efficient arm of defense.
"Then, when speak in the interests of inter-
national peace voice shall be heard with respect II
not with fear and not a cry coming from a weak.
ling" Judge Gray added at is plain duty now
to prepare to make the future safe from another strug
gle such is devastating Europe"
There are peace-at-anyprice advocates who will not
agree with such uterances but they are as COM
pared with the millions of Americans who feel that pre-
paredness, based upon desire for peace of the
greatest of American needs at this time
No who knows Judge Gray will accuse him of
being ingo. His whole of official and private
conduct would give the lie to such accusation He
speaks American who believes in peace with
honor its accompaniment, and who thinks that
country should be at all times in position use
its army and navy TO call halt upon operations
of any international outlaw bully that may be dis
posed to profit by the heplessness of its neighbors

There is an inconsistency bordering hypocrisy
in the demand for the purchase of articles "Made-in-
America" when we also advocate throwing down the
bars which have kept out Of our markets goods
in Germany or made in England, made in Italy.
1t is a very plain and simple proposition which has
been recognized by the majority of the people of the
United in every election except two since Abra-
ham Lincoln stated the facts in his plain and simple
language when he said that If buy article from
European producer, get the article and the resi-
dent Of Europe gets the money while If buy from
an American producer, we get the article and also
keep the money.

INDUSTRIAL DEPRESSION AND IT'S EFFECT.


NE ANY persons overlook the indirect effect of indus
IVA trial depression upon every line of business Just
now for instance attention has been directed to the
fact that although this country has received enormous

the shoe industry is experiencing exceptionally dull

discard shabby pair Of shoes and buy new pair,
will. in hard times. have small patch put on the
uppers and a new half-sole nailed on and then wear
the repaired shoes until he gets thoroughly ashamed
of them Children whose parents would encourage
them to wear in good times will them
to 60 barefoot when money is All this makes
dull times for the dealer in shoes Who by making his
clothes wear twice long, cuts down the trade of
the clothing MERCHANT
The clothing dealer makes up his loss by letting his
house another year without painting and the paint

TIRE FABRIC HARMED
 BY MOISTURE -MESSNER

Carl Messner of the Southwestern agent for the Michelin Tire Com pany says that the action of damp ness on the rubber part of an auto mobile tire is insignificant, but its effect on the canvas is serious
 When cotton fabric is left in a moist atmosphere, such as on the floor of a damp cellar. for example il is not long before spots and stains make their appearance. Such stains denote the presence of minute de- structive srOwths, the action of which reduces the fabric to mould. The same is true of wall paper hung in q camp room eventually the paper will fall from the walls.
 The application of these experi- ments to automobile tires is easily followed
 Sometimes a casing will blow out suddenly, perhaps when the car is being used for the first time in the spring, the cause being weakness resulting from the decay of canvas
 In order to judge the seriousness mined whether the canvas of the tread only has been affected. for in that case the tire can be retreaded and restored to thoroughly servicab- ble condition. If the body canvavs of the casing is affected, as well as the tread, it becomes necessary to have the casing completely rebuilt
 Deterioration caused by dampness can be prevented by storing tires in absolutely dry cool places.
