Washineton's Failure.

From the viewpoint of the national entity" MT. Garrison said, national ism is the possession of and the ex- ercise by the national government of every power and function necessary to perform properly the collective du- ties and to fulfill completely the col lective obligations of the nation. From ism is the yielding. not in theory but in practice, Of his mind. his heart, and his spirit to the welfare of the nation. the contribution of his material means and his physical force to it's preserva- tion and defense. It means service and sacrifice, devotion and loyalty"
 Won't Face Issue.
 One of the most dangerous senti- ments threatening the integrity of the nation, he said, is that which ''util- izes the natural and universal abhor- ance of war as a reason for not prepar- ing for it's possibilities
 IS ALMOST TREASON.
 "SeIf defense is the cardinal duty of a nation," he said. "The national government is the only agency that can make preparation. To deny its power or to question the imperative necessity of its ex- erting that power is little short of treason.
 SIDE-STEPs DUTY.
 "This is a duty which the na- tionaI government has neglected. In this particular the modern tendency has been reversed. The national government fiinched and faItered and sought to pass its neglected duty to the states. The result was, and was bound to be lamentabIe failure"

 Officials Tonight
New Council Will Take Its Seat and
 May Discuss Salaries.

The new city council will take iJs seats tonight but Mayor Myers says he is in favor of not appointing the new officers for some time until more opportunity has been given to go into the subject more thoroughly.
