AS the time draws near the annual
city meeting, the voters should know
who are in the field to fill the import
ant positions as Mayor and Alderman,
and for mayor we have heard of only
one name mentioned, that of J. t.
Gardner; for city alderman, the
names of w. w. True, Carroll Hunt
ington and j. A. Aubin have been
suggested. Mr. Aubin on being APP
preached on the matter says he is
not in the field for any contest. He
was in the field last year and the gen
erous support that he received at that
time, only lacking two votes of be-
ing one of the first Aldermen show
ed that he is very popular with the
public and would be a good man on
the board, and we believe that if the
voters should see fit to honor him
with the Office, that he would accept
the honor. The other man that have
been suggested are not ready to make
any statements as to their views,
but any of them elected for these po-
sitions would fill the offices in q most
efficient manner.

NO DISGRACE TO FEEL FEAR
Idea of What Constitutes
Real Bravery.

An English observer calls attention
to the fact that our world war has
destroyed the fear of being afraid.
Heretofore, even to most distant an
tiqnity, the one quality insisted on in
the soldier was that he should be
fearless and the more callousy so the
better. The faintest tremor of timid-
ity was black mark against the most
respondent knight as well as the low
lest bowman or halbardier, and the
schooling for war was an utter def
ance of the personal risk.
This theory held, as many will re-
member, even till the period of the
Boer war, whe1f the British suffered
SO severely in officers because it was
held cowardly for a commander to
seek cover Men, then as now, felt
fear, for that is one Of flesh's attri-
butes and, indeed, is one of the most
valuable of human possessions, since
fear is our protection from dangers
and harms innumerable. We fear wild
beasts to avoid them, snakes and
spiders to increase our attention,
storms and tempests that we may pre-
pare means of escape from them.
So it was only in battle that chiv-
airy insisted that man should be with
out fear. or pretend to be.
With the coming of new warfare
however, all lands at once came to q
more sane understanding and the old
physical bravery has given place to
moral resolution. The man who now
enters the hell of shell fire, of hurled
flames and deadly gases, no longer
attempts to fool himself into the be-
lief that he is not afraid. He knows
full well and only a stupid nature
could avoid the knowledge that the
human is at the mercy of forces a
million times beyond his own ability
to counter. The old knight might
really believe he was able to unhorse
all the enemies that rode against him
and therefore might conceivably be
without fear. but how can a soldier
feel that way when facing modern
weapons of destruction?
Therefore, it is no longer a dis
grace to feel fear or to admit it; the
only disgrace is to allow fear to pre-
vent one doing his duty. How much
finer fiber is needed for this new de-
fance!

LAR0R ISSUE VITAL,
DARTMOUTH IS TOLD
Justice Stafford, at 15oth An
niversary, Says Colleges Must
Furnish Leaders

HANOVER, \. H.. Oct. 2O.-Stu-
dents and alumni of Dartmouth Col
lcgc, who assembled in a large tent on
the campus today to celebrate the
15Oth anniversary of the college, heard
Justice Wendell p. Stafford, of the
Supreme Court of the District of Co
lumbia, define the college spirit as "a
bold and hardy determination to culti-
vate and discipline our powers with
the aid of all that men have learned
before us and then to pour the whole
stream of our powers into the noble
tasks of our own time.
Justice Stafford spoke on The Col
lege Training School for Public.
Service. After eulogi2ing Daniel
Webster and other great sons OF
Dartmouth, he continued:
1--WE now stand face to face with a
new riddle of the sphinx. The ques-
tion it propounds is one that we must
answer if free government is to sur
vive. That question is, How are the
masses of men and women who labor
with their hands to be secured out OF
products of their toll what they VIII
feel to be and will be in fact n talr re-
turn? Until we can answer that
question we shall have no peace ana
il we fail to answer it we shall have n
revolution.
Our safety can only be found in
policy that treats all men as brothers:
all equally entitled to the fruits or
their labor. all equally entitled to
raise themselves as high ms posSlDle,
each in his own place. without dong
wrong to any of the rest. It IS the
spirit of justice and fraternity that
must be our guide And where are
we to look for leadership if not IN IN
stitutions such as this!
