What Pres. Wilson
Thinks Of War

From his address on "The Bible
and Progress" delivered at the Den
yer Auditorium, May 7, 1911:
| do not know that peace lies in con-
slant accommodation. l was once
asked if | would take part in a great
peace conference, and | said, Yes,
if | may speak in favor of war-no,
the war which we seek to avoid, not
the senseless and useless and passions
and the war with human wrong-the
war which is that untiring and I'M
ending process of reform from which
no man can refrain and get peace.
No man can sit down and withhold
his hands from the warfare against
wrong and get peace out of his ac-
quiescence.
The most solid and satisfying peace
is that which comes from this con-
slant spiritual warfare, and there are
times in the history of nations when
they must take up the crude instru-
ments of bloodshed in order to vim
dictate spiritual conceptions.
For liberty is spiritual concep-
ton, and when men take up arms
to set other men free, there is some
thing sacred and holy in the war
fare.
l will not cry peace" so long as
there is sin and wrong in the
world. 4
Why Most of our Statues Were Built
to Honor Fighters
Did you ever look about you in any
great city, in any great capital, at
the statues which have been erected
in it? To whom are these statues
erected? Are they erected to the
men who have piled fortunes about
them?
/ do not know of any such statue
anywhere unless after he had accum-
lated his fortune the man bestowed
it in benefcence upon his fellow men.
And alongside of him will stand a
statue of another meaning-for it is
easy to give money away.
l heard a friend of mine say that
the standard of generosity was not
the amount you gave away, but the
amount you had left.
1t is easy to give away of your
abundance, but look at the next
statue, the next statue and the next
in the market-place of great cities and
whom will you see?
You will see here a soldier who
gave his life to serve, not his own
ends, but the interests and the pur-
poses of his country.
l would be the last to disparage
any of the ordinary occupations of
life, but l want to ask you this ques-
ton: Did you ever see anybody who
had lost a son hang up his yard
stick over the mantelpiece
What is the difference between the
yardstick and the musket?
There is nothing but perfect honor
in the use of the yardstick, but the
yardstick was used for the mans
own interest, for his own self-sup-
port. 1t was used merely to fulfill
the necessary exigencies of life,
whereas the musket was used to
serve no possible purpose of his own.

Contributing Reporter
Has Nerves Racked
By Imported Gents

Time: Sunday afternoon, the season
of quiet and rest, broken usually only
by the constant roar and occasional
shrek from the not-far-distant Pail
sades Amusement Park.
Place: Knox avenue, one of the
most restricted parts of Grantwood
People: Three men of foreign birth
apparently South European) came
up the avenue from the cliff, possibly
having climbed up the steep face of
it. One particularly noticeable among
the three, dressed in dark clothes ex-
cept that his coat was gray, walked
rather unsteadily, in see-saw fashion
the other two, in little better condi-
ton, trying to support him and pre-
vent his falling over. They were urg-
ing him along, while he seemed rather
reluctant. They had not proceeded
far when two others of like national
ity came from the same direction
with quicker step. One of the two
was rather disheveled and in consid-
cradle of a hurry, as far as his un-
sober condition would let him, while
his companion was using every en-
deavor to restrain him. In little
while, however, he staggered up to
the first party, before they reached
Palisade avenue, and made an attack
upon the one in gray coat-presum-
ably a renewal of previous fight.
The companion of the two yanked
them apart and held them though the
second one and the aggressor made
violent attempts to break away and
renew the combat. His companion,
however, succeeded by coaxing and
threats and physical exertion in per-
suading him, despite desperate re-
Palisadian. [volume] (Cliffside Park, N.J.) 1906-current, 1915-07-31

He took every risk without any pos
sibility of profit.
The musket is the symbol of self
sacrifice and the yardstick is not. A
man will instinctively elevate the one
as the symbol of honor and never
dream of using the other as SYM
Dol of distinction.
Soldiers Win Only Gratitude By
Sacrifice
Doesn't that cut pretty deep, and
don't you know the soldier has his
monument as against the civilians =?
The civilian may have served his
state-he also-and here and there
you may see a statesman's statue,
but the civilian has generally served
his country-has often served his
country, at any rate-with some idea
of promoting his own interests,
whereas the soldier has everything
to lose and nothing but the gratitude
of his fellow men to win.
Let every man pray that he may in
some true sense be a soldier of for
tune, that he may have the good
fortune to spend his energies and his
life in the service of his fellow men
in order that he may die to be re-
corded upon the rolls of those who
have not thought of themselves, but
have thought of those whom they
served.

sistance and considerable damage to
headgear and wearing apparel, to re-
turn the way they came, and was as
sisted in his efforts by third one
who soon came up and they were not
long in disappearing down the cliff.
In little while the first party of
three was also observed walking rather
quietly in the same direction. In the
meantime, somebody in one of the
nearby residences had telephoned
police headquarters, and the trio had
not gone far before an officer in
plain clothes hurried up and on in
quiring finding that they had been
in the squabble accompanied them,
followed by two policemen in uniform
who came up on the run. Behind
these, of course, quite a crowd of
curiosity seekers hurried, mostly boys
and youths, flowing over with desire
to see a SCRAP" 1t was not long,
however, before the gray coated one
and his two companions sauntered
again toward Palisade avenue, at
tended by the police and the crowd,
and it was all over.
The other combatant and his
friends had discreetly disappeared.
Altogether, besides disturbing the
peace of quiet neighborhood,
graphic picture was presented of the
material at hand regarded as desir-
able to be grated in or woven into
the fabric of our nationality. Other
wise yclept "Americanization." Of
such is the Republic of the United
States.

The Newark Eagle,
New Morning Paper
To Scream On Monday

The Newark Eagle, carrying with
it all the good will, friendship, affilla-
lions and patronage of the Newark
Morning Star, will make it's initial
bow to the reading public next Mon
day morning, August 2, taking the
place of the Newark Morning Star
in the newspaper field.
It will be under management dis
tinct and apart from that controlling
the Evening Star, the separation of
the Newark Eagle from Evening Star
connections being entire and complete.
With new organization and man
agement the Newark Eagle will ap-
pear as an Independent newspaper
in every respect, with the intention
of justifying and fulfilling the trust
and confidence reposed in its pre-
decessor, the Newark Morning Star,
and retaining the friends and patrons
of the latter publication.
Attired in new dress of type,
clean cut and pleasing to the eye.
the Eagle will be most attractive in
appearance.
Local matters will, of course, re-
ceive more attention than in the past,
with details carefully noted.
The entire world of athletics, with
special attention to local sporting
news, will be covered in an expert
way and with entertaining detail.
All the latest telegraph and cable
news of the country and of the world
will be furnished the Eagle by that
most reliable of all services, the As
ISOLATED Press. This should speak
for itself.
There will be local staff, in charge
of city editor familiar with Newark
and Newark's conditions and the re-
quirements of the people; State
staff, under command of an editor in
close touch with New Jerseys affairs.
The main editorial staff will be COM
posed of men particularly adapted to
this department of the newspaper
business, all operating under special
supervision.
In acting with good faith to all, the
Eagle merely asks that good faith
be shown it in return.
With it's vast mechanical improve
ments in appropriate branches OF the
establishment, new and attractive
type, an enlarged force of editors, re-
porters and general workers, and the
determination to "get there" that in
variably appeals to the people, the
management can see no good reasan
why the Newark Eagle should not re-
ceive public encouragement and be
rewarded by success of the most
gratifying kind in its venture.

Suffrage Pilgrimage
10 Home Of Pioneer
State Demonstration

The mecca of suafragists on the
morning of August 10 will be the
former home of Lucy Stone, 16 Hurl-
putt street, Orange, N. J. On all
highways and railroads leading to
Orange there will be automobiles and
trains filled with the leading suffra-
glsts of the state. Suffragists from
New York and Pennsylvania will also
be headed in that direction to do
honor to the birth of Lucy Stone at
the home from which came her famous
protest against Taxation without
representation" in 1857.
Another object of the pilgrimage
is to impress upon the voters of New
Jersey the size and strength of the
suffrage movement. Lucy Stone found
ed the New Jersey Woman's Suffrage
Association, the organization which
is directing the pilgrimage in 1865
ing vigorous campaign to win New
Jersey October 10 as the first east
ern state for equal suffragists.
The ceremonies for the day will
begin with the unwilling of the
bronze tablet to the memory of Lucy
Stone, which is to be placed upon the
house at p. m. Miss Alice Black
we'll, the daughter Of Lucy Stone who
was born in this house in Orange will
be the chief speaker at the unwilling
of the tablet.
The headquarters of the pilgrims
is to be an old Colonial house on
Main and Halstead streets, Orange.
After the unwilling of the tablet,
the pilgrims will return to this house
where a large mass meeting will be
held at which DR.. Anna Howard
Shaw, Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait,
and Miss Alice Stone Blackwell will
be speakers. The pilgrims who came
auto will tour the Oranges, Mont
clair, Glen Ridge and part of
Newark.
The Campaign State Cooperative
Committee will meet the afternoon of
August IL at the pilgrimage head
quarters, delegates coming from New
York, Pennsylvania and Massachu-
sets. The delegates will be the
guests of honor at banquet to be
held at the country club in Orange.
A Challenge Accepted
On May 20, "Jim" Nugent offered
to pay half the expenses of any I'M
partial investigator to study woman
suffrage in Colorado. On July IT,
the Newark Evening News, never a
suffrage paper, published the results
of such an investigation and reported:
That, NEARLY all seen by the News
man in wide canvas agreed that If
woman suffrage were put to vote
tomorrow the State by an overwhelm-
ing majority, would vote to keep it.
That, "Whatever mismanagement
is found in the state government IS
there not because of equal suffrage
but in spite of it."
That, at is on questions of moral
nature that women show themselves
in greatest unity"
That, "There seems to be little
doubt that the influence of the women
has knocked some of the rougher
edges off election day."

Cut The Cutout
Out If You Will,
You, Mr.. Autoist!

The residents of Palisade avenue,
Bluff road and Anderson avenue, are
greatly annoyed every night, almost,
about midnight by young mans
automobile. He is said to have a
position in the park and lives in Fort
Lee. He goes callihooting through
the roadways of Palisade as though
he were trying to win race with his
cut out wide open and the muffier
making the noise of a levithan be-
ing pursued by whole. Perhaps if
policeman Tommie Dalton should halt
him sometime and whisper the inter
esting fact that most people in Pail
SADIE are living here largely for the
happiness of sleeping in a quiet place,
he might be led into being considerate
of the feelings of others. Just why
he hasn't realized that he is NUS
ance can only be accounted for on the
grounds that he hadn't thought
about it.
