THIS MILITARY BUSINESS.

An officer of the New York National Guard who has resigned from the service makes rather unexpected comments on the countrys military situation.
 The National Guard" he says, "is through" lie makes complaints regarding the treatment of himself and other Guardsmen of the conditions they have found the border. But he that nearly all the Guardsmen will get out of the service they and return to it. They don't to be caught again in a situation making them liable be ordered any time indefinite period of active service at a distance. And no others will take their places.
 More than that, he is convinced that a Continental Army formed according the Garrison plan would better It would exist only paper. And for the reguar army itsef"As enlsting for it." he declares, "and am opposed universal conscrip- with all this military business"
 If all citizens like this officer it is hard for anybody to "see where going get of with this military business" But fortunately yet proved that the willingness citizens to serve their country in died The enthusiasm have focked to the training camps and ships the past shows that military ardor still exists that tens of thousands of patriotic Americans eager themselves for participation the defense Enstments in the regular military organization it is true have Jagged But that fact is largely accounted for by the boom times and the keen competition for the service of all abebodied and abe-brained men, It is this competition by making army and navy service attractive; and surely that can be done.
 As for the National Guard self-if the attitude of this exocer is the attitude of the organization in gen. uselessness of that body becomes selfeviden The Guardsmen fought the Continental Army and manded that congress give National Guard chance It having its chance If the members fulfill this officers prophecy, they will have clearly demonstrated the adequacy of the present law. Then may be able to get army that will do the expected of it

MOTOR CAR FATALITIES.

The latest automobile accident report reads lko the record of battle Twenty the larger American cities in the first eight months of this year had 1O4O per killed and 5000 injured by cars. It likely that the cities listed represent the most one-haif onethird total casualties the county. The present year plainly destined to be a record for automobile slaughter.
 The immense increase in the number of tends of to increase the accidents But is hardly necessary insist that how many number of injuries and deaths.
 Most of the mishaps attributed to unnecessary speed It is suggested that there must be a general slowing down of automobiles, city and country alike hour less, there would be far fewer accidents.
 Not all the responsibility however. rests with the driver large proportion of the pedestrians hit by mobiles through own fault. S only dangerous but it is unfair to street in the middle city block where the motorist naturally doesn't pect anyone foot It is also dangerous and fair walk along a road without paying any attention approaching It is dangerous and unfair to let children play in a road where there is much traffic Motorists hardly be blamed justly for more than half the child accidents.
 Cutting down the casualties isn't merely of putting the the automoblists. It's matter automoblists and the public getting together and cooperating safety plans.

If the records of the recent primary were us proving the apathy of citi zens who failed enjoy their suffrage right it would unnecessary to voice pleas and entreaes to men and women do less than their duty.

 The difference between contributing to the election of an efficient candidate or who by their failure enable unworthy cand date to creep in through the support of militant mi nority is the difference between prosperous business and losing one home defended by property safe guards and undefended family assured of the enjoyment of human rights and assailed by social injustice

SPEED CARS.

The annual automobile for the Astor Cup seems to have been disappointing in respect Nobody killed, hurt. The event. however was not totally without interest car caught fire and one turned turtle.

 It is impossible to view such spectacles anything else than sporting events. They longer contribute anything valuable to the solution of construction prob lens. The mechanical factors all pretty clearly de ternined. It's almost wholly a competition of human nerves One may be little better than another for this particular purpose; but what sensible woman wants racing capable of 100 miles hour or more? Those racers of importance than steam loco motives would be if they for hauling trains but solely for crazy speed competitions Fancy rival locomotive companies building engines just to race against each other and hiring daredevil engineers to them
 What the public really wants is of ordinary power and speed, made little manageable a little attractive little durable little cheaper There is still room for development along those lines
