MAY LEAD US INTO WAR.

The recent action of the Senate in amending
the general revenue bill provides what diplomatic
representatives regard q serious menace to con-
tinled good relations between the United States
and the governments of Great Britain, France,
Italy and Russia.
The most drastic retaliatory measures that
were suggested were passed with the approval
OF both parties and were backed by the depart
ment Of state. That this is a more serious matter
than is generally recognized is found in the dis
patch that these four allies powers are to hold a
conference in Paris in order to decide upon a
course of action towards the United States.
The retaliatory legislation is directed against
the British blacklist, the embargo on importa-
tons, the blockade OF neutral ports in the north
ern part of Europe, the interference with neutral
mails, the opening Of the mails, the censorship OF
cable messages, and all other measures under
taken by Great Britain and her allies in their
efforts to strangle Germany.
The powers which are given the President to
use in his discretion include the right to deny
clearance to the ships of these nations, to bar
their use OF the telegraph and cables, and to re-
strict the right of importation from them. The
power of the army and navy of the United States
is authorized to be used to enforce and uphold
these measures when carried out at his discretion.
That this tremendous power has been placed
in one hand is a sign of the time and is absolutely
necessary for this country to hold it's own in the
avaricious times through which we are passing.
That it will be used to promote, if possible, the
interest Of peace, none can doubt. Secretary
Lansing says the dispute with the Allies has not
yet reached an impasse, and that every effort
will be made to settle the questions involved
through diplomatic channels.
Only the event of a definite failure, and an
attitude on the part of Great Britain and her
allies necessarily regarded as unfriendly, will
cause a usage of the terrible power given the pres
ident. Our citizens should know that. once a
trade war is entered into actual war may soon fol-
low. At all events there seems to be some excit-
ing times ahead for American diplomacy, and a
s%training of the good feeling which has existed
between this country and the Entente since the
beginning of the war.

WOMAN'S RIGHTS AND HOMES.

About the most amusing argument Which we
have heard advanced by those who argue against
woman suffrage is that 1T will destroy the home
A noted trenchman, Eugene Brleux, in speaking
of woman's economic emancipatlons, says:
DIRTY dishes will be cleaned outside of the
home. Stockings will be darned in factories.
Cooking will be done as an established industry
outside of the home"
Well, what of it? Suppose all Of this happens,
and even more fancy that future age, when men
and women will meet each other in business life
and as equals. Do you expect an outlook OF saw
agery, or a competition between men and wom-
en- that will be fierce"
To be truthful, women may achieve much IN
tightening their labor around the house, or in
entering the ranks Of big business and the portals
Of closed professions. We wish them well in that,
but no sane man believes that love will ever perish
from the earth. The washing Of dirty dishes out
side the home ought to put another sparkle in the
young wife's eye. The darning of stockings in
factories may insure Johnny and Mary an ade-
quate supply of stockings, whole in toe and heel.
Cooking done outside the home may give the race
its finest humans, without rendering illegal the
making of Judges and pies.
Surely the home is not an end to be upheld
without the love behind it. Whenever that great
feeling becomes a memory in the minds OF men,
then our homes will disappear, but in that case,
we shall need them no longer. The Frenchman
may breathe easy again. The house is safe if
love lives.

COMMUNITY FACTIONS.

FactionaliSm Oftener than any other influence
or force has obstructed the progress of comm
mites. Factionalism usually is but a manifesto
ton Of energy misdirected, force gone to waste
and where factionalism is rampant true leadership
is lacking. However able a person may be, howev-
er wise, if he lack tactfulness and diplomacy he
can scarcely hope to succeed as a leader. Conces-
sions and compromises are necessary in all rela-
lions of life. Of course there should be no con-
cession and compromise with positive wrong, but
even the wrongdoers may be won to a better mode
of life by fact and diplomacy.
A community divided into factions must re-
main at a standstill until a leader arises who is
discerning enough to discover common grounds
on which factions may unite. Often the spirit de-
veloped in fractional rivalry is vindictive though
the original difference between factions were only
with respect to methods of procedure or of policy.
Generally, if leaders are wise enough to grant to
all credit for equal honesty of intentions and to
make concessions where no vital principle is vio-
lated harmony may be secured. This may mean
changes in leadership-a sort Of concession and
compromise that only the most generous of lead
ers will assent to.
Briefly, a community rent into factions detri-
crates instead Of improves and its people are chag-
rined to observe social life languish, commercial
opportunities vanish and enterprise of every kind
disappears. Ii ever the maxim in unity there
is strength" has a true application it is with re-
spect to community activities. A community un-
tied and organized for promoting the public well
fare has all the elements of health and strength
its energies will be devoted to building up, not
tearing down, it's energy and enterprise will be
directed into constructive channels, not d~estruc-
tive, and good humor, good will and hopefulness
will be the dominating sentiment, instead of an
ger, revenge and spite.
A time generally comes in every community
when the restoration Of harmony is possible and
citizens who wish well for their community are on
the lookout for opportunities to suppress rival
RES, unite factions and promote good feeling
