Empty Guard Ranks.

The ruling with regard to former Ma.

OF Importance to the various states of
the union.
For them it means that the coming
Of peace may find them without any
military organization of their own. In
Massachusetts, for example, there is at

provided for its formation I'm time of
war" When peace is signed it is ex.
Pected that the career of the state guard
will be over.
Then Massachusetts may for the first
time find herself without a military aux
llisry to her police power. The "organ.
lied militia" traces its unbroken history
from the earliest days Now, at the end
Of the most glorious chapter in all that
history, there threatens to be only blank
pages.
The institution of the National Guard
itself is not abolished by the ruling;
merely its personnel is lost. That per
sonnet may readily be found again by
the enlistment of old members or Of
new members in the old National Guard
organizations. The recruiting would nat.
urally be encouraged because of the pres
ent availability Of trained officers as
commanders.
1t is in accordance with the American
tradition and American spirit for states
to have their own little armies: it is a
part OF their state sovereignty. The
principal use of the militia might be TO
put down violence, for which federal
arms would also serve, but the states
have susually preferred tOsdo their own
police work
Even in an era of disarmament and
reduction of military establishments the
National Guard would probably in some
form continue. Only the institution Of
general military service as a permanent
national policy would ahreaten it-and
the answer to that question, as to so
much besides, must depend upon the
peace conference.-Boston Globe.

tion of having its battles fought for it
by Great Britain The British navy pro-
tected our commerce on the seas in the
full measure in which it protected the
commerce of Great Britain. Save for the
menace of the U-boats, and the limita.
lions of the blockade the American mer.
chant ships went freely on the seas of
the world. We were able at every mo.
ment to realize the difference of our sit
uation from what it would have been If
the high seas had been the scene of con
slant naval battles. The German navy.
held in its ports, was held away from
us as well as from British commerce.
On land, British soldiers, as we after.
ward admitted by our entrance into the
war, were fighting as much for our ma.
tional safety as they were for their own,
II that were not so, then our subsequent
participation in the war was wrong It
was our war; we were a little late in it
that was all
This for three years -and then came
year, gloriously eventuating, in which
we fought side by side with Britain.
The historic foundation and the present
justification of this common endeavor,
WIS NOAIIiph SAT- ilCes was I0e laGL Lnat
for hundred years America and Britain
had gone on side by side in the support
OF the principles Of home government
and of international law and interna-
tional justice which are common to them.
We fought together not only by reason
OF the German aggression upon us both,
but because our common ideals, our com
mon interest, our common hope of the
future, had really brought us so near to
gether that we could do nothing else. |
The crisis of the war had tried the souls |
Of the two natoss, and had found them
one in purpose.

IS FACING A DEFICIT.
Austine Institution at Brattleboro Strug-
giles with Increased Costs.

The third biennial report of the Aus
tine institution of Brattleboro, for deaf
pupils has been issued. Il shows that
for 1917 the number of Vermont state
benefciaries was 81 and for the past year
80 The difference is nearly all due to
the fact that in 1917, owing to the per
capita cost of maintaining the depart
ment for the blind, that department was
given up, which took away six pupils.
In each year there were nine pupils from
New Hampshire.
The school is maintained in part by
the state and in part by an endowment,
and some private pupils are taken, who
are called full-paid pupils. In their re-
port to the governor the trustees say
that the advance in prices of supplies and
fuel has considerably increased the cost
of maintenance, but that the careful
practice of economy in which all inter
ested have participated, the increase has
been kept as small as possible. The re-
port continues: Because of this UNI
ayodable increase in cost an advance
must be made in our charges or a deficit
will be incurred"
The booklet contains a list of the off
GERS and faculty, reports of the attend
ing physicians, DR.. Winfred R. Lane, and
the surgeon, George R. Anderson, the
principal, Miss Helen G. Throckmorton,
catalogue of pupils, statement of the
purposes of the institution and general
information, acknowledgements of gifts
and courtesies, the acts relating to the
education of deaf and blind children, and
several full-page halftone illustrations
showing groups of children in pageant
costume, besides fine picture of the.
building. 1t is very attractive report.

One Place Where War VIII Never Be.

Nine Americans out of ten, we believe,
viii agree with the sentiments of Col.
onel Roosevet's letter to George Haven
Putnam on the matter of our relations
with Great Britain, which is published in
another column to-day. Colonel Roose-
welt does not call for treaty of alliance
between the United States and Great
Britain, but he presents the eminently
common sense idea that the relations be-
tween the two countries, by the inevi-
table logic of war in common, follow
ing hundred years of peace, have now
advanced to a condition which may safe
~ carry the guarantee that under no cir
cumstances shall there ever be resort
to war between them-that no question
whatever that arises shall be regarded as
outside the range of settlement in judi
rial fashion,
We say that this is the logic of events,
and that it is so must be apparent from
! consideration of the conditions and oc-
rurrences Of the war. For three wretched
years the United States was in the posi-

COnquers Rheumatism
In a Very Few Days

IL is an established fact that small dose of
Rheuma taken once day has driven the main
and agony from thousands of racked crippled
and despairing rneumatics during the last
seven years.
Powerful and sure; quick acting, yet harm
less and Inexpensive, Rheuma gives bleased
relief almost at once. The magic name has
reached nearly every hamlet in the land and
there is hardly druggist anywhere who cam
not tell you OF almost marvellous cures.
If you are tortured with rheumatism or sci
atica you can get Rheuma from f. A. Drown

that If it does not completely drive rheumatic
Iaaianns from your system-money back.--Adv.
