which, when in full operation, would
afford total available strength of
nearly 100000 men-or. counting in
the National Guard. about 100000
men. The guardsmen have fought
the federal volunteer force as a dan
gerous rival TO their own Organiza,
ton There is no necessary antag-
onism. The federal reserve is in
tended to enlist large numbers OF
citizens who would not be likely to
Join the Guard because of it's greater
demands, but who would be willing
to 60 into training for short periods
every year. Such force has the
great advantage Of being subject to
call at any time for national pur-
poses without the possibility Of a con-
hct of federal and state authority.
At the same time, the Senate bill pro-
vides for the liberalization of the
National Guard as far as possible.
The Senate measure commands re-
spect as pledge of the nations pur-
pose to strengthen its arm and give
effect to it's words. 1t can be made
a powerful diplomatic weapon.

NO WAR REMINDERS.

Canada has wisely decided not TO
extend the war zone to the Great
Lakes. The government at Ottawa
announces that it has no intention Of
searching vessels with the purpose of
Selling sailors or passengers of en-
envy nations.
There is said to be simple, prac.
tical reason for such moderation.
There is already shortage Of sailors
on the Lakes, and SO many of the
present sailors are Germans and Aus.
trians that shipping would be serious
ly inconvenienced if they were driv.
en- out. But more important con.
sideration is the danger there might
be to the friendly relations of the
United States and Canada if an Am.
erican vessel were searched and
everybody on board subjected to in
spection and possible arrest every
time the boat touched at Canadian
port. Hard feelings would inevitably
result, and there might be serious
complications from the inadvertent
seizure of American citizens.
The Great Lakes constitute a very
important part of the longest peace
full international frontier in the
world. Nothing should be allowed to
interfere with its peaceful character
The United States has given ample
proof Of its good faith by drastic sup
preston of every attempt on the part
of Canada's enemies to make wal
upon her from our territory. 1t is
proper and natural that Canada
should avoid any annoyance to us
growing out of the war.

TRAINING CAMPS.

Private military preparations are
going right ahead without regard to
any action that Congress may take.
The most notable phase of this unof-
fetal preparedness is the populariza.
ton of the military training camp
idea, which came into existence last
summer in the Plattsburg expert
ment. That small beginning, which
gave the rubin ents Of drill and dis
cipline to a few hundred volunteers
from business iand professional life,
looms large as the fruits begin to
show. 1t is expected that at least
10000 men of military age will re-
ceive months training under regu-
lar army officers this year.
Camps are to be established in all
sections of the country. Not only
is there widespread interest among
eligible men, but employers have ris-
en- to the idea with unexpected en-
thusiasm. There was published a
few days ago list of 1871 corpora
tons pledging themselves to give a
months leave of absence on full pay
to employees attending the summer
camps. The list included banks, trust
companies, insurance companies and
mercantile and industrial organiza-
tons.
A months drill, Of course, will not
turn rockies into soldiers. But it
will provide respectable nucleus for
future volunteer army that could
be whipped into shape much more
quickly for the start the men have
had Moreover, the four weeks OF
vigorous outdoor life will be better
for the volunteers, physically and
mentally, than their usual vacations.
