ARE WARS NECESSARY?

There never has been a war waged against civilized peoples that could not have been avoided or settled with out bloodshed, with honor, if the masses had been wise, provident and prudent, and the leaders, the office holders, those in authority, had been brave patriotic and unselfish. We will organize the great world court, in which the international conscience shall be the supreme law, to which all our differences shall be submitted and by which they shall be settled. We will organize "the parliament of man" and bring about "the federation of the world" for the good of all rather than submit our interests and ourselves to be exploited for the az grandizement of the titled few. We will repudiate the right of any man to inherit a public office. and spurn with contumely the power that would attempt to force us to bend the knee of subserviency to a ruler who claims to hold his place by divine right By Senator James K.

BILLIONS FOR PEACE

A new America will he created by this war. We have the richest coun- try on the earth and the most unpro- tected. We have been deploring na- tional armaments abroad and the heavy burdens thus imposed on other nations.
 We have rejoiced in the belief that our isolation made it unnecessary to put ourselves on a military footing commensurate with that of other na- tions. We have been mistaken.
 We are involved in the greatest of all wars. We are now compelled to follow the examples of all the other first-class powers and enter into the competition for suremacy in arma- ment on land and sea.
 It will be our purpose to surpass all others. The creation of a large standing army and the greatest navy in the world will involve an expendi- ture of billions of dollars for muni- tions, ships, accouterments, horses, artilley, Notifications and all that our establishment on a war basis in- wolves.
 A huge public debt will be created, for part ofthe burden of military pre- paration must be transferred to other generations It is not pleasant out look.
 There is satisfaction however, in the thought that this tremendous sac rifice will be made to maintain the nations honor and guarantee last ing peace throughout the world.

THE IRISH IMMIGRANT

When I was a young man the Irish immigrants just oyer were the main source from which we drew our farm help. These sturdy sons of the Emer- aid Isle had one overpowering am- bition, and that was to own few acres of their own, a privilege denied them in the land of their birth. Soon small holdings and outlying fields were picked up by Irish laborers who were willing to endure any privation in order to secure the coveted home. and they thereby greatly enhanced the prosperity of the community. The Swedes and other Scandinavian peo- ples are today doing for Minnesota and other Northwestern states what the Irish and Germans did for the Atlantic states in a previous period, and the process will doubtless go on as long as there is land for sale and work for the sturdy sons of Europe. It has been, peaceful conquest be- cause having behind it higher mo- tive than that which animated Alex ander, Hannibal, Caesar and Napol- con, who were best only upon con- quest and whose cohorts left every land they touched vastly poorer than they found it.-Farm Journal.
