THE DISCIPLINE OF PEACE

WHEN a man tells you that peace
M and so-called prosperity make peo-
W pie soft, you can be pretty sure
he has been locking in mirror From
his cushioned corner OF the club lounge
he has been observing his fellow mem
hers and drawing melancholic, but err
roneous, deductions as to national fabbi-
ness.
If he could look over some seven mil
lion industrial wage earners; a million
miners; four and half million male farm
,aborers; five and a half million farmers
nearly two million gentlemen who sit at
locomotive throttles, shovel coal into the
fire boxes, throw the switches and ballast
the tracks; half million draymen, and
so on, he might get a suspicion that there
is quite bit of bone and sinew left in
the country.
We Americans pamper our children at
home At school they mostly middle
along in free and irresponsible manner.
Then, for at least ninety per cent of the
males, there Immediately arises the ext
gent problem of earning living. They
go into an office or factory, and are at
cnce subjected to discipline much more
searching than that of military training,
and quite as ruthless.
Professor Veblen, in his recent book on
Germany, suggests that, under some cir
cumstances, a part Of the apparent econ
omic losses of war are not real losses, be-
cause the military adventure draws off
the lighter softer, less responsible ele-
ments in the population, which are incap-
able of meeting successfully the rigorous
discipline of peace.-Saturday Evening

NEEDLESS WORRY

~ UR Republican friends, when they
loose breath about Mexico and the
- underwriting" that has kept us
out of war-much to their regret-are
fond Of worrying about the condition OF
the national treasury.
The Democratic tariff law, they say, has
left the treasury in fearful condition.
Therefore we ought to elect Republicans,
who will fill the treasury who for
every dollar they put in the national TIL
will put four dollars, wrung out OF the
necessities of the people, into the till OF
tariff protected Privilege.
They needn't lie awake nights worry
ing about the condition of the treasury.
The treasury, thank you, is in very good
shape.
William G.. McAdoo, whom the nation
has employed through President Wilson
to look after the treasury-and whom
some people hate because he made banks
pay interest on government deposits and
because he refused to let the treasury
department be branch office of Wall
Street any longer-has made a report on
the Condition Of the treasury as it stood
at the end of the fiscal year on June 80.
The balance in the treasury, excluding
credits of disbursing officers and out
965, 231. 97-THE GREATEST BALANCE
IN THE GENERAL FUND OF THE
GOVERNMENT SINCE 1908.
If anybody is worrying about that, it
can only be because of the fear that it will
annihilate all the campaign buncombe
about what the Democratic tariff law has
done to the treasury.
The surplus of ordinary receipts over
ordinary disbursements, exclusive of Pan
anna canal and public debt transactions,
was SCI, 112,s1374, as against deficit of
nearly forty-three million the previous
year.
The receipts from internal revenue came
to the unprecedented total Of $512,74O,
1888, many millions more than the re-
ceipts in any previous year, and this large
revenue from this source reflects nothing
on earth but high state of prosperity.
Incidentally, the expense of collecting
this great sum amounted to only Ia per
cent, THE LOWEST COST IN THE HIS
TORY OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE
SERVICE.
No; nobody need worry about the treas
ury-even for campaign purposes.-Du-
luth Herald.

STANDING BY WILSON

CASA NJ Wallace in Sank Centre Herald)
THE Herald is Republican craft from
tops'l to keelson. It intends to do
it's yellow damnedest to help elect
Republicans to national, state, legislative,
county and local Offices in the coming fall
election. The whole outfit is SO soused
with the Republicanism that when the
Occasional Editor, in his fits of mental
alteration, writes nice things about the
Democrats and the Democratic party, the
blasted old Intertype refuses to work; but
we want the world, the nation, the state
and this locality to know that the Herald
is American, before it is partisan.
For this reason it looks with much dis
favor, not to say disgust, at the scurri-
lous, caustic criticisms of President Viii
son in regard to his manner of conduct
ing war operations at the present time.
Of course he has made mistakes and
possibly the present precarious border sit
uation is due to such mistakes, but the
situation is here now for us to face and
there is nothing for patriotic citizens to
do but face it, and face it with a united
front. Possibly we might almost say that
probably the president will make more
blunders before the Mexican muddle is

WE WANT DOC!

THERE are some things we can't un-
derstand One of them is why
1 "Docie" Storrs (more dignitiedly
known as "Caryl B. Storrs of the Mime
apolis Tribune) will go way back into the
Ozark ages and dig up TX Spears circus
days, or spend good time drifting around
with Sallie and phaeton through the
sands of Winona, or put a lot OF ecort on
showing up Frank Day as nature-faker
how, as we started out to say, Docie
can do all this and not pause in his Visitln'
Round circuit, to spend one day in seeing
Nature at her best in Ramsey Park
we'll, that's clear beyond our comprehen-
sion. We've forgiven this same Doc Storrs
many things; have let him mess up
our kitchen with about bdshel OF mush-
rooms which he insisted upon cleaning
and cooking in his own misguided mascu-
line matter, have sat meek1y under his
advice as to the best and most approved
methods Of putting our son and heir to
bed when we knew he didn't know any
sands of Winona, or put a lot OF effort on
first-nights in the bygone days OF the legl-
innate theatre, and have listened to him
dramatic-criticly expound on the merits
of the show, when we knew, IN our SUI
perior judgment that he was missing, ev-
cry finest shade of meaning. All this have
we borne and been loyal to Doc Caryl B.
But if he doesn't make good his over
sight in not having visited Redwood Falls,
and cooking bacon for our devouring over
the cabin fireplace, We declare war to its
fullest extent of Shermanness- and vow
right here to show him up as we know
him to be- Besides we're sorry to have
Doc miss this good thing-hed like us

THEY'LL COME BACK

THE first of our Minnesota soldiers left
this state today for the front. Three
weeks they have looked forward to
the moment, moment which, it was eX-
pected at first, would be glorifed by the
glamour of war.
But the glamour of war has had three
weeks in which to wear off. For 10, there
is no war. The certainty of hostilities
felt by most people upon the calling out
of the guard has given way to the practl-
cal certainty that there will be no war,
at least SO long as the present admins
tration remains in power. Not since the
Columbus raid has the probability of in
tervention by the United States seemed
so remote.
The leaving of the Third, therefore,
while suggesting much to the magma
ton, is not the exciting event it might
have been. The dramatic "if come back
has been changed to the everyday ex-
preston, when l come back" The last
embrace with the nearest and dearest does
not invite thoughts Of eternity or of the
supreme sacrifice. 1t means that these
men, subject to the executive will of the
United States government, are going in
to training camp for an indefinite and
probably not great length of time. They
are having a respite from the routine of
civil occupation. They are going to see
some of the interesting things of the
world.
Mayhap it will be different There may
yet be serious complications but these are
only possibilities. And though war with
Mexico may ultimately be unavoidable

No information had been announced

after midnight.
At lis Secretary Baker declared
there was nothing in messages already

that long cipher message would be
flied at San Antonio. This. he said.
