WHAT IS INVASION?

There has been q lot OF talk by tho
peace price people Of the mat
ter Of invasion. and many Of those
who have been using every possible
effort to prevent the proper protec-
ing violated have been loud in their
protesta tons that they would be
heartily in favor Of fighting to defend
the country from invasion.
What is invasion?
Are eternal principles bounded by
rights sacred in one place. and worthy
of no consideration in another?
There is no sanctity about a given
area of the earth's surface. For a
million mon to land on the Atlantic
coast and march across to the Pacific
would in itself injure no ono What
ever OF evil there is in the invasion
Of a country lies not in the more
presence Of certain individuals within
q prescribed area. but in the purpose
for which they come. and the acts
which they commit while they occupy
that territory. Invasion Of territory
is injurious only when 1t involves the
violation of the rights Of the people
who live in that territory, the destruc-
ton OF their property. tho 'circum-
scribing Of their liberty of speech and
action. or the jeopardizing Of their
lives. Most people are willing to f,ght
to prevent these things.
But when the individual leaves his
own door yard. he carries certain
rights with himself II he IL an
American when he is at home. he Is
still an American when ne goes
abroad. and he carries with him, into
the uttermost parts Of the earth, those
rights which the founders of his ma
ton have declared to he inalienable.
And his government is bound to pro-
tect him in the exercise Of those
rights, wherever he may be. in for
eign lands or on the open ocean. as
II he were at home. II he is in a
foreign country his freedom Of action
Is modified by the laws Of the coun-
try in which he IL. On the ocean it is
subject to the regulations which ma
tions have found it necessary. for their
mutual protection and conve nience. to
provide. But within those limits, no
matter where ne may be, his rights
are inalienable and indestructible.
and his government cannot evade the
duty Of protecting him in the exercise
Of them.
The government Of the United
States is bound to protect its citizens,
whether they be in Maine or Califor-
MIA. in the exercise Of their lawful
rights. 1t Is bound to do this no mat
ter how obscure the Individual, and
no matter what tho cost may he.
Whether that protection requires the
services of a federal marshal. or an
improviscd posse. or all the soldiers
and all the guns that can be assem-
bled. the rights of the individual must
he defended, and a government that
will not defend them is a contempti-
BILE thing, unworthy the allegiance Of
Its citizens or the respect of mankind.
And 1t is no less the duty of the gov
ernment to defend it's citizens in the
exercise Of their plain rights when
they have travelled beyond the terri
torial bounds of their own country. It
is that sort Of right which the Ameri-
can government is now called on to
defend, and 1t must not fail.

Here is what they say:
Senator A. j. Gronna:

Representative H. r. Helge.
From the prcsident's message
II Is difftcult to know just what
authority he wants from con.
grcss. In the first part Of the
message he intimates that he
wants the right to conduct an
armed neutrality in defense Of
our rights on the sea.
ITO an armed neutrality, en-.
forced in a strictly impartial
manner, think every American
will subscribe, but the power to
conduct such neutrality the presi-
dent already possesses without
coming to congress-. It therefore
looks as II that is not all he dc.
sires.
Later in his message the
president hints at wanting q
blanket authority. which might

Help for Starving Belgian

The local committee in charge of

starving Belgian children, are work.
ing hard to send a good contribution to
these little sufferers, and would
greatly appreciate the support and CO.
operation Of every interested person.
William Howard Taft says that the
American people have as much gener-
osity as any people in the world but
it needs an electric shock to arouse
them to its exercise. This shock is
bound to come when the country wakes
up to the horrible suffering in the war
ring countries Of Europe. "A million
souls. mostly women and children.
would be conservative estimate Of
the number in Bible lands now either
actually starving or on the verge OF
starvation" Relief workers say that
in some places they go without food
for days. and pounce upon food which
is given to them like dogs dying Of
hunger. imploring the workers for
bread with outstretched hands. Every
where is that dreadful pang Of hun
ger. II is hoped that people will help
generously and feel that each has done
his bit" for the starving children OF

UPHELD BY PREMIER.

peace, he declared, would have to solve
quickly the problems which would oe,o.-
mine the course of things in Great Bri-
tain and the empire for generations, ana
unless he was mistaken in the temper OF
the people they did not intend to en-
trust this tremendous reconstruction to
any party machine; they meant, he be-
lieved. to take it into their own hands.
Therefore. he declared, he was glad men
of all political faiths had agreed upon a
basis for an electorate, millions of whom
made sacrifices for their countr''.
After intimating that the government
was not prepared to adopt proportional
representation, the Premier concluded
by Expressing the hope that the House
would show the same spirit. not merely
of Cancellation, but of good sense and
carry through the recommendations sub
stantially in the form in which they
were made and without the bitterness of
a political controversy.
Several members of the House sup
ported an amendment introduced by
Arthur Clavelle Salter, Unionist, urging
the avoidance of the question during the
war, except in the shape of temporary
measure placing soldiers and sailors on
the register the ground being taken by
him that any scheme of reform as sug-
gested would discourage the Allies, dis
content the lighting men and detract
from the national efforts to win the
war.
Walter Hume Long. secretary for the
colonists implored the governments op-
ponents to consider the governments
policy. He urged the adoption of the
conference proposals in full It would
be criminal folly, Mr.. Long said to lose
this opportunity for compromise and
for the members of Parliament to turn
their backs on the possibility of a set
Element, chance of which might never
return. He had been a life long on
ponent of woman suffrage, the secretary
added. but if he. still held the same
views which he did not. he would not
raise his voice against granting recog-
milton to women, who had suffered and
died %for their country in the war and
without whose herosm. self denial
