A QUESTION OF PRINCIPLE

Shortly after the Lusitania tragedy the Mail, in very uncomplimen-
tary terms, expressed its opinions OF Americans who persist in travelling
on beligerent ships exposed to the danger OF submarine attacks. This
newspaper believed, and still believes, for that matter, that such acts,
endangering a they. do the national peace, deserves severe condemna-
ton. No american has the moral night to avail himself OF any privilege
which may embarrass his country and perhaps plunge it in war.
On the other hand, it must be borne in mind that President Wilson,
in insisting that Americans shall be permitted to travel on armed mer-
chantmen, is merely standing upon international law. To do less as
certain weakened congressman suggest, would be n ahect surrende
of n established principle.
desire to travel O N armed merchantmen, but his opinion OF their patriot
ism does not prejudice his Judgment, and more than the courts opinion
of a man who pleads the statute Of limitations against an honest debt
prejudces his decision. In other words, it is II thing to condemn TN
patriotic Americans for avaiing themselves of dangerous privileges,
quite another to acquesce in the demands OF a foreign nation that these
privileges cease-because that nation happens to be seeking a advan-
tae in war.
Americans either have a right to sail o n armed ships or they haven't;
if they have, al President Wilson insists, that right must be protected
regardless of the consequences, and If they haven't congress las been
wasting its time discussing the matter. There is n o middle ground to
occupy. Obviously, then, it is not a question OF consequence i
question Of whether W e will become involved in al with Iern1any
but of principle. To abandon a welestabhshed right because ITS eXef-
else threatened war would be poor economy in the long run to 1t woull
invite whitening contempt China affords u a example OF what hp
pen when a nation is willing to relinqush hts rights rather a upho'd
them by foce-Stockton Mail.

AN ARRAY OF PEERLESS LEADERS

Won't it he inspiring in the next Republican national convention to
hear "te man who orators? Every nominating speech. as is well
known, arfuly conceals the m OF the candidate while the author is
describing his virtues.
Ohio, for instance, will present its favorite son, a man who is known
throughout the length and breadth of this broad land as a peerless lead
err. a wonderful statesman, a peer1ess-weIl, a peerless something or
other. Oh, my fellow countrymen, ask you, what does he stand tor:
He stands for, he stands for-I forget just what he stands or except
the nomination, gentlemen, Theodore E. Burton.
Or, consider Michigan. That great state, gentlemen of the conven~
ton, is proud and happy to present for your favorable consideration a
man who would sacrifice himself to serve his country, a mar who has
taken the lead, taken the lead in offering himself to your sufrages-WI-
liam Alden Smith.
And then there is Massachusetts,. 1t is a small state, Sit ut some
of us love it. And Massachusetts,, the home of the Adamses, and Web
str and Sumner, takes pleasure in presenting a man who has made a
fortune in coppers: a mar who makes a fine speech ITO a bankers CON
venton; a man who is a regular campaign fund all in himself; that noble
patriot. that sterling representative of the common people and American
manhood-John w. Weeks

Thrty-cent wool thirty-cent copper, thirty cen zinc and thirty-cent
eggs-but, wait awhile, eggs are OF down o thirty cents; they re fifty
and sixty and in places seventyfve, but they are coming down at the
same time the metals ire going up, and the happy result will be, it is be
feved, thirty cents all around for the chief products of the state, and
then everybody will be happy.
Let the low1y egg go down to twobits; but let the metals stay away

The price Of eggs fuctuates as the seasons come and go-war doesn't
concern the hen; she scratches ground and gets there just the same, in
and out of season When the weather is extremely cold she does the
very thing every other lucky and sensible white Ia does-she sits On
her perch and listens to the cock growing and bEnks her eye with an
indifference characteristic of who doesn't "a whether school keeps
or whether the entente or the central powers win.
When you stop in your rush for the wealth that is EVERYWHERE in

periy is here, all dressed up in its best Sundaygo-to-meetng raiment
They do say that the demand for wheat next fall will be so great
that the price will mount o figures of enormous proportions. 1t is ofy
a prediction based or past performances, a it were, and wheat may go
above a dollar and it may go to two dollars.
There is something in the atmosphere conducive to high prices, and
dustriany If prices of the products of the soil and the range mount to
the high register of the scale and remain there long after peace shall
have been declared in Europe.
Now Is the time for all good men to make hay while the II shines.
Also a good time to make copper, zinc, wool. wheat, hay and potatoes.
The hen just will not listen to reason; there is no way by which she can
be induced to increase her output. But eggs are a luxury that a very
well be omitted from the List of necessities. But we want copper, zinc,
