FATE OF THE CHILDREN
WORST OF WARS HORRORS
Young Boys Drilled to Become Soldiers
of the Future.

OF all the worlds children the most
fortunate are the happy, care free
children OF America. From the White
sea to the Black. from the plains OF
Poland to the English channel children
have watched the battles Of this war
with fear and shrinking or have wan
dered homeless In tears and suffering.
Orphaned and desOlate children. too
little and too weak to speak for them
selves, have died by thousands, killed
by hunger and cold and war.
VIII the war spoil the kiddies? All
over Europe play is all Of enemies,
hatred and crude brutality.
In Germany the schools are the sup
ply department of the army. The chill
dren are compelled by law to undergo
physical training of semi-military char
acter. Said General Won Wachs, adj
dressing $4,000 Berlin boy scouts:
"You are reserved for the defense of
the capital. The moment may come
when the very existence Of the coun-
try may depend upon you and lads of
your age"
The youth of France has been called
to the colors. "We should be guilty"
urged the minister for war In the
chamber, 'if we did not prepare and
drill these soldiers of tomorrow who
may be called upon to snatch the final
victory"
In England nonmilitary, compulsory
service for boys is imminent. In the
event of long war the lads who are
now fourteen must presently be re-
cruits. No time is to be lost in or
ganizing a system OF military training
In the schools so that they may be
ready for what fate is in store.
An imperial ukase calls up Russias
new conscrlpts year before their time.
Frances eighteen-year-old recruits
have left school or work for training,

but high spirited and burning to fight.
In Prussia every youth of seventeen
has already been summoned, and
schoolboys of sixteen compelled to
commence military drill.

ready the drain has begun, and this Is
one OF the unexpected and hideous re-
suits OF the war. For there is nothing
in war quite so terrible as the tragedy
OF the boy who is forced to become a
soldier.
All Europe knows that in the world
today no children have such opportuni-
ties for health and happiness as those
OF America.

Garfield's Picture of the Ocean.

II was one of the bitterest conven-
ton fights ever waged that was on.
The Grant forces stood solid from
first to last, on the one hand, and the
Blaine men were equally unyielding
on the other.
There had been demonstrations for
both candidates of half an hour of
shouting and cheering for the first
time in convention history. The dele
gates had gone wild 1t was under
these conditions that James A. Gar
field of Ohio-General Garfield he was
called then-rose to nominate John
Sherman for the presidency. He said:
81 have witnessed the extraordinary
scenes of this convention with deep
solicitude. No emotion touches my
heart more quickly than sentiment in
honor of great and noble character;
but as l sat on these seats and wit
messed these demonstrations, it SEEM
ed to me that you were human tenn
pest. l have seen the sea dashed into
fury and tossed into spray, and its
grandeur moves the soul of the dullest
man. But | remember that it is not
the pillows, but the calm level of the
sea, from which all heights and depths
are measured; when the storm has
passed and the hour of calm settles
on the ocean, when the sunlight battles
its smooth surface, then the astrono-
mer and surveyor take the level from
which they measure all terrestrial
heights and depths.
Gentlemen of the convention, your

Speech Won a Nomination.

Another convention speech which
won a presidential nomination for it's
maker was that of William Jennings
Bryan at the Democratic national con-
vention in Chicago, preceding the free
silver campaign Of 1896.
The country was wrought up over
the money question and the division
was not based on party lines. Many
Republicans favored bimetallism;
many Democrats wanted gold stand
ard. Bryan, not yet 36 years old, was
little known congressman when he
rose in the convention and said:
81 would be presumptuous, indeed,
to present myself against the distin-
guished gentlemen to whom you have
listened if this were mere measur-
ing of abilities; but this is not con-
test between persons. The humblest
citizen in all the land, when clad in
the armor of righteous cause, is
stronger than all the hosts of error.
| come to speak to you in defense of
a cause as holy as the cause Of liberty
the cause of humanity.
" Therefore we care not
upon what lines the battle is fought.
If they say that bimetalism is good,
but that we cannot have it until other
nations help us, we reply that, in
stead of having a gold standard be-
cause England has, we will restore BIZ
metalism, and let England have bime-
talism because the United States has
il. If they dare to come out in the open
field and defend the gold standard as
a good thing, we will fight them to
the uttermost. Having before us the
masses of this nation and
the world, supported by the CONNER
cial interests, the laboring interests
and the toilers everywhere, we will
answer their demand for gold stand
ard by saying to them, "You shall not
press down upon the brow of labor
this crown of thorns; you shall not
cruelty mankind upon a cross of gold"
That speech settled it. The free
silver plank was written into the
platform and Bryan was nominated
for president.

Speeches

present temper may not mark thu
healthful pulse of our people. Whei
our enthusiasm has passed, when the
emotions of this hour have subsidized
we shall feel that calm level Of pub
lie opinion below the storm from
which the thoughts of mighty peo-
Pile must be measured, and by which
their final action will be determined.
"Not here in this brilliant circle,
where $4,000 men and women are
assembled, is the destiny of the Re-
publican party to be decreed. Not
here where | see the enthusiastic faces
of 756 delegates, waiting to cast their
votes into the urn, and determine the
choice Of the republic; but by 4 million
Republican firesides, where the
thoughtful voters, with wives and
children about, with the calm thoughts
inspired by love Of home and love of
country, with the history of the past,
the hopes of the future, and the
knowledge of the great men who have
adorned and blessed our nation in
days gone by. There God prepares the
verdict that shall determine the wis
dom Of our work tonight. Not in
Chicago, in the heats Of June, but in
the sober quiet that comes to them
between now and November, in the
silence Of deliberate judgment, will
this great question be settled"
The delegate in the crowd who
shouted, "Why don't you take it your
self" when General Garfield con-
cluded may have started movement
at the psychological moment. At any
rate, when 80 ballots had brought
neither Grant nor Blaine nearer the
coveted honor, and Sherman was en-
sirely out of it, stampede set in for
Garfield, and he was nominated on
he Beth ballot. That his plea for
on behalf of Sherman,
vas responsible for the convention
urning to him, few doubted then, and
has not altered the belief.
