One is international treaties and
agreements; the other is force.
This country has heretofore relied
upon the former, but the expert
ences of the present war have DEM
onstrated that in times of actual
strife international laws and treat
les are mere scraps of paper, and
are no guaranty OF safety. There
remains then but one alternative
and that is force, aud experience
has also shown, that with modern
methods of warfare, it is disas-
trous to postpone preparation until
the conflict starts. For this coun-
try to abandon it's hopes OF settling
all international differences on a
basis of justice by means of inter
national courts, and return to the
'barbaric custom OF defense by force
is step backward in civilization,
but we must face conditions as
they are. We can not advance too
far beyond the customs that pre-
vail in the countries with which we
may have conflicts. Until eviden-
ces of a higher state of civilization
are manifested in other countries
we must prepare to defend our
rights in the only way that seems
. safe, and for that reason the sug.
! gestions of the president will prob
ably be supported, although the
extent of preparedness, and the
methods of attaining it, which he
proposes, may be materially modi
fed.

According to the testimony given IN

in TO four different bars on the way
and found his wife in an alteration
