TWAS NOT FOR PERSONAL USE

Chief of Police George T. Wood
worked up a case Thursday against
Clayt Baughman, colored, who had
ordered a gallon of booze sent him
by express. As is necessary, Baugh-
man went before notary pubic and
swore that the whisky was for his
own use. Mr.. Wood kept his eagle
eye on Baughman and when he found
that he was going to divide his whis-
key with Hathaway Hill, he took him
in tow and carried him before City
Judge R. L. Dawson, who fined him
$50. Baughman is laying out the
fine in jail.

lleved that they would receive SYM
pathy, perhaps, and safe harbors."
Eugene Jalbert. of Woonsocket,
vouches for this story from Rumford:
AT recent meeting in the town
the French Canadians gave a posi-
tive expression of their enthusiasm
to help give the world an assurance
of their determination to defeat the
Kaiser and his gang. Thirteen thou
sand six hundred and fifty dollars
was subscribed for Liberty Loan
bonds during that meeting, and
Rumford has not large population.
But, best of all, a service flag was
lifted high to let that audience see
that 1902 boys have followed the flag
to France"
In Lowell, Mass, there are ten
French-Canadians to every one of
any other nationality; in some of the
New England cities the percentage
is even higher than in Lowell; In
New Hampshire there are towns
where, judging by the advertised
names of streets, shops and stores,
the inhabitants must be entirely
French Canadian, and in some places
French is the only Language spoken
by most of the people; in Vermont
the same is true. But the story of
the attitude of the French
in the United States toward the war
against the vicious autocracy Of
Germany does not change. Even in
New York City, where there are TO-
600 French-Canadians, there is no
difference. At the corner of Seventy
sixth Street and Lexington Avenue,
New York, there is the French Ca
madam church of Jean Baptiste, in
which hundreds of French Canadians
are communicates. The brothers Of
the church are "for the law which
has determined that CONSUMPTION in
the United States must be oheyed."
That, too, is the expressed sentiment
of thousands of French-Canadians
in this city.

abolition of economic boundaries
within the United States-the free
exchange of agricultural products
from the West for manufactures
from the East-which has developed

Nationalities
In Europe there is no one citizen

alities Gamble traced, and these are
localized, not intermingled. The
Bretons in France, the Basques in
Spain, the Bohemians, the Fleinings
in Belgium are cases in point. Most
of us believe in the small nation. We
owe art tol Greece, and religion to
Judea. 1t was Rome, as a small
nation, that gave us Roman law.
Ireland has contributed song and
lyric and sdyll. The England of
Shakespeare, of the Authorized Yer
sion of the Bible, of Milton and
Bunyan was small. The America
of Washington, Jefferson and Frank
lin was still small.
We need variety. Boston ought
to differ from Detroit; humanity
ought to be made up of all sorts.
Providence has marked out the
boundaries wherein men Of distinct
races may dwell.
But if big empires like Russia as
she used to be and Austria-Ger-
many as she is to-day are to be
avoided, the small nations, while re-
serving their individuality must CO.
operate with each other. For pur-
poses of trade they must form them
selves into commercial unions. 1t

lions. Every sovereign state has
the right to impose tariffs. But does
any one seriously doubt that the
progress of South America would be
accelerated if she were to establish
a commercial union? Is it not true
that jealousies between the South
American republics have been TO-
mented by trade restrictions along
boundaries? Indeed, it is precisely
these restrictions which make the
delimitation of territory so impor-
tant matter.

would thus make Bulgaria the domi-
nant power in the Balkans. Goods
could be stopped on the frontier and
railroad cars held up.
On these grounds the second Bal
kan war broke out, which left Bull
garia with sense of grievance and
made it impossible for the Western
powers to win her support. This
entire situation would have been
avoided if the Balkan peninsula
had frankly accepted internal free
trade. That plan would also have
solved the problem Of Kavala, which
happens to be port on the Egean
Sea, inhabited by Greeks, but the
gateway to Bulgaria. There also

une to them seemed to offer the
greatest advantage.
In a recent visit through New
England, to the cities known as
typlcally expressive of French-Cana-
dian life in the United States, it
was my good fortune to talk with
people who claim Canada as their
own place of birth or as the native
land Of their fathers, whose fore
fathers came from rugged Nor
, mandy and Brittany, and who"
should, according to an historian of
their nation, "have much in common
with the people of the British ISL
ands."
what about the French Cana
dams in Rhode Island? Are they in
sympathy with the policies of the
government at this time?" I asked
Aram Pothier, native of Three
Rivers, Quebec, a man who has been
Mayor of Woonsocket, a represent
ative in the Legislature of Rhode
Island, Lieutenant Governor of
his state, and for six years the Gov
ernor of that state.
In response to the question, his
smile was quite as unmistakable as
that of William Howard Taft, whose
autographed picture hung upon a
wall of the study in the ex-Gov-
errors house in Woonsocket, r. L.,
where Mr.. Pothier and l were seated.
''There is but one thought among
u.s." he answered after a little, land
that is to stand with the government.
The French Canadians in Rhode
Island and in the rest of the United
States are loyal to this country. Any
other thought by them would be fool
ishness."
Here in Woonsocket, Mr.. Po-
thier, where I am told there are
10000 French Canadians in a popu-
lation of $4,000, how are they ex-
pressing thelr loyalty!
"By buying Liberty Loan bonds
and Thrift Stamps; by working
morning, noon and night for the
Red Cross, and by sending their
sons to fight for their country. But

city, who will be able to give you

things
The Mayor, Adelard Archambault,

though he is in sympathy with the

loyalty of his countrymen under the

1T seems very strange that there

that every one who is a French

Again, small nations can only sur
vive under guarantee of the world
at large. That was the case with
Belgium. Now, if the young men
who live by the Mississippi are to
be liable for military service in de-
fence of Rumanians who live by the
Danube, is it not reasonable that the
Ramanians shall observe general
regulations designed to minimize the
.isks of future war? Is the obliga-
ton to be all on one side and not on
the other? This question is the
more pertinent because it so hap

a considerable part of the European
Seaboard. You have Norway and
Sweden, you have Denmark, you

you have the Near East. Before the
war France and Britain guaranteed
the integrity of Belgium. Would it
have been quite fair of the Belgians,
presuming on this guarantee, to close
the Scheldt against Central Europe
and impose prohibitiye railway
rates? Surely Belgium was wise in
recognizing the obligation to allow
through traffic to all nations. Indi-
vidual nations must understand that
there is an international aspect to
human life.

fiscal policy. Great Britain adheres

way the cause of the Allies. AL
though he was born in Massachu-

decidedly French-Canadian, his fore

IN this particular parish the families

In Holyoke I met Joseph Lussier,
managing editor of LA Justice" a
newspaper printed in French and
having wide circulation among the
French-Canadians south of the St.
Lawrence, who do not agree with
the Bourassa type Of politics. At
one time in Quebec Mr.. Lussier was
the political opponent for office of
Mr.. Bourassa, designated by many
natives of his own province and
former associates as the "frebrand
of Quebec" and as the man whose
"one-idea-ed obsession has done the
greatest injury to the name of
Quebec" Mr.. Lussier is a Conser-
vative in politics and believer in
the firm controlling hand in matters
relating to public welfare. "No half
measures should be used with the
men or the women who endanger
lives with propaganda of any kind
that antagonizes governmental prin-
ciples,'' is his opinion.

Commercial Union
AS a Safety Valve

Germany herself, despite her close
touch with helpless Russia, is dis
covering that the twenty-four Allies
can strangle her in time of peace
merely by withholding metals and
other products. If that is the posi-
ton of the most powerful isolated
country in the world, how could b.
hemia expect to survive except as a
member of an international family?
In the case of Serbia before the war
it was the custom of Austria Hun
gary to bring pressure to bear by
raising tariffs against Serbian ex-
ports, and especially pigs. A Ser
bian tariff against Austria was no
remedy. But if Serbia had enioved
numerical union with the rest of
tne Balkans, to say nothing of the
rest Of the Allies, she would have
been secure of markets which would
have rendered her independent of
her hostile neighbor.
