lzation is such that 1t Is necessary to impress congress with what we want before they will start to give it to us. Congress will vote for preparedness when it's members realize that the peo- ole demand it, and the way to make them realize this is to write and tell them so. The war college and the navy general board have submitted reports showing what we should do to make this country invincible. These reports are the result of months and years of study by the best military and naval authorities in the country They should be adopted.
 Every citizen owes a duty to him. self, his family and his country to learn all he can about present condi- tions, to discuss preparedness with his friends and show them why it is es- sential and to write his congressman and senators and have his associates also write them and state that they want congrese to adopt the reports of, the general board and war college. Speed is essential. Do it now!

NEGRO LYNCHED
 AT IDABEL
Negro Who Attacked White Girl Was Lynched Monday Morning.
 Little Excitement.

Idabel, Okla, April 5.-Oscar Mar tin. negro was taken from justice Of the peace court room here Monday morning about II o'clock and hanged at the rear of the court house, in which the preliminary trial had been in progress.
 There were about 800 persons in the mob, nearly all of whom had lis tened to the evidence. According to the evidence the negro had commit ted a statutory offense on 13--year- old white girl while she was with c girl companion gathering wild on:ons in the woods near Bismark in this county
 At the time the mob took tile ne gro from the court room the testi- mony had been completed and the justice was ready to announce his de- cision. The mob dver-powered the officers in the court room, placed q rope around the negro's neck, push ed him out on a porch, tied the end to a rail and pushed the negro off. A few pistol shots were fired, the mob dispersed and during the after noon .he town had become quiet. The body was cut down and held for rela- tlVeS

pared with the cost of unpreparedness.
 The expenditures of the United States for it's army during the ten years preceding the Civil War were S16s, s,o7e, ,7o7.57.
 The cost of the Civil War (for which we are still paying at the rate of hun. dreds of millions year) was S1O,eo2.. 7e3,21o.oe.
 Now suppose that the United States had spent three times as much on its army during the decade preceding the war and in 1861 had possessed an army of 3O.GOO men tstrong enough to have quciled the Rebeiion). we would have spent in that decade only $5O4. .2339 1o1. and we would have saved in money alone over S10.O0O,0OO.OOO, the differ ence between what adequate prepared. ness would have cost and what we have up to the present time paid for that one war.
 Adding to the four years of civil war which came from unpreparedness the other yeaHs of wars prolonged because of the same neglect it appears that the beet agents of the makers of arms and ammunition are the advocates of defensclessness.
 The Revolution lasted five years long er than it would have run had we met the issue intelligently; the War of 1872 ran two years longer than it would if we had been prepared: the Creek War six months; the Florida war six years: the Mexican War one year.
 Thus eliminating the smaller indian wars, unpreparedness has given US a clear total cf 18 years of war. Write to your Senator and your Con-
 gressman urging them to work for
 the immediate adoption of a policy
 that will absolutely insure the nation
 against war.]

MURDERlNG MEN BY DELAY.
Preparedness More Humane Than Am. bulance Corps.
 TPART WI

It is estimated that Congress by it's lack of proper military policy. has sent unnecessarily to their dcath--by dirc"t ,Ht;SeS uiunc over three hundred thousand of our citizens. How Iona is this to continue? Only adequate pre- parednesS will stop it. Up to 1880 the United States has had one year of war :o every three of peace. During the life of our country we have employed 4,095,215 soldiers in wars against. a total enemy of 2.e53.000.
 We hear arguments against pre- paredness on the grounds of mili- tarism. Militariam is state of mind. When a nation has reached the limit of it's expansion and competition be- comes excessive expansion is essential and lust of conquest results. The United States today has nowhere even nearly touched the limit of it's expansion. and we have no desire for conquest. While we have still uncon- quered our own resources 1t is inn possible to become militaristic. We ere too busy developing our own pos abilities to think of conquering others.
 Security is cheap at any price, but unpreparedness is the most expensive luxury in the world. Switzerland was prepared and is inviolate. Belgium was unpreparcd. Now look at it! Even assuming that preparedness costs half billion this year (due to our previous negligence we are forced to make a spurD. if we consider it as 2 form of insurance and consider the capital and lives saved it is a low rate of premium. As business proposi. tion, what would you think Of a man who neglected to maintain his factory fireproof if he knows it is in dan- gerous neighborhood and apt to catch fire and when he knows that such a fire would result in the loss of lives of many of his employees? What would be done to the directors of company who deliberately shut their eyes to such a condition and allowed their factory to become a firetrap and did nothing to prevent it? Congress to- day stands in the position of such board of directors.
 IL IS u pCCulldI lldIAC Ol iliIIlu IueS0 anti-preparedness people have got themselves into. "The ocean is de- fense enough" and they forget Galli- poll and Saloniki. Preparedness brings on war;" and they ignore China. Our present system is good enough" and they overlook our history. Our navy can't be licked" How about the fact that it was licked in the last maneuvers? Preparedness is inn moral" The Bible shows us time after time that preparedness against un- justiHabic attack is not only moral, but also essential. And SC they go. All have different reasons as to why preparedness is wrong. and the only thing which they seem to possess in common is an infinite ability to talk without a knowledge of facts Pre- porcs1ess is 3 business proposition foy thjg country, aad it simply means beinG flrsighted and appropriated erp pugh to learn by our experience and eaErent,history
