Pacifists continue to bury their
heads in the sands of theory and dream
Of the time when wars will cease. An
international court of arbitration is
the goal they are striving for and it
has an appealing tone. When the
plan is calmly considered from all
viewpoints, however, serious defects
protrude, and Congressman Murray OF
Oklahoma recently pointed out what
the establishment Of an international
tribunal for the settlement of dis
putes between nations and the en-
forcement of the DEGREES of such court
would mean to the United States, A
majority of those not white would
control an international compact OF
this sort, and religions not Christian
would also be in a majority, while
those who believe in republican insti.
buttons would constitute a hopeless
minority. The Monroe doctrine would
Of course, die as no other nation in
the world has agreed to it, and we
would have to abandon the exclusion
immigration acts against China and
Japan. Ultimately this world court
would determine our tariff laws anG
every relation between nations. The
right of trial by jury and the total
separation of church and state are two
of our distinct principles not found in
other republics, and they certainly
would not be as secure under a plan
giving control Of the world to the

ASKS HEARING
ON WATER RATE

Request for hearing at any future
conferences on the water rates recent
ly established over the protest of the
city and manufacturers, has been ask,
ed by the Pennsylvania railroad in a
letter written by Superintendent LIE.
Boutillier to Alfred Bavis, president
of the board of works.
Mr. LeBoutillier also intimated that
If rates were increased materially, the
railroad company might find it profit
able to construct and operate it's own
water works system
Upon receipt of the letter, Mr..
Bavis said personally he would wei.
come representatives of the Pennsyl-
vania at future hearings and he be-
lieved this would be the attitude of
the whole administration.
The railroad company is getting
water at 6 cent rate. Although not
assuming a hostile attitude toward the
corporation, Mr.. Bavis said he could
not consider such rate fair.
He continues to be of the opinion
that an appeal should be taken from
the commissions ruling.

GERMANS TRY
TO DRIVE BACK
RUSS ADVANCE

PETROGRAD, Aug. q Terrific
fighting is in progress between Ger
man and Russian forces on the west
bank of the Stokhod river today. The
Teuton army, resisting the Russian
advance on Kovel has been heavily
reinforced and is attempting to drive
the Cars troops out of the positions
which they captured west of the Stok-
hod by a brilliant charge
Reports thus far received by the
war office state that the German
counter attacks have been fruitless
The Russian artillery on the east bank
has inflicted terrible losses on the
German infantry. That the Teuton
commander regards the lost positions
also Of vast importance is indicated
by the fact that in several instances
the infantry was ordered to attack
without any artillery preparation.
The belief at the war office is that
the next few days are likely to see
the Austrian and German forces so
effectively separated that it will be
impossible for them to cooperate fur
ther. The well balanced strategic
plan of the Russian general staff, il is
asserted, is working out admirably
1t was discovered too late by the Aus
tro-German commanders for them to
take effective steps TO prevent the
splitting of their armies.

were drawn for bitter fighting in the
senate today when the child labor bill
is taken up, probably late this after.
noon, Immediately after the disposit-

priation.
The opening of the fight will be
marked by an effort on the part of a
group of Republican senators, led by
Borah, of Idaho, to couple the child
labor bill with the immigration This
plan has a two-fold purpose. first to
compel President Wilson to sign the
twin measure despite his opposition to
the immigration bill, and second to
command support Of the southern
Democratic senators who favor the
immigration bill but oppose federal
child labor legislation.
