OTHER VIEW POINTS

Reports to the governor In respect to the matter of forming a national guard in Connecticut just now touch delicate subject in a discreet way. We see evidences of an indisposhion on the part of old soldiers to put them selves into the power of the federal government again until they know what 1t has in mind They remember 1916. The state will do it's part when plans are worked out. Until that time the state guard is functioning pretty Waterbury American.
 The prohibition enforcement bill. as finally passed by the senate. con tains the object ona ble search and seizure features which set so dan gerous a precedent for tho confscation of private property and private stock. The advantages of n saioonless nation are becoming more and more apparent IS time goes on. but that does not mean that it is right to search q mans house for such stores of liquor as he may have accumulated for his own con sumption The main Intent of prohi- bition is to remove temptation in the form of the countless saloons that faced the young man of yesterday ev cry time he walked down the street. The radical prohibitionists may 1nd that in providing for search and seiz- as privately stored liquor they are paw ing the way for drastic confiscations, the end of which can only be anarchy. Prohibitionists have long been loud in their defense Of ~the law. Let them now see to 1t that law is not subvert- ed in the interest of temporary aridL- ty.-Hartford Post

exploration did not take place until the time of Captain James Cook, 150 years later while Volonization was delayed until twenty years before our Civil War.
 When colonization did take place it resembled the settlement of the Am erican colonies, in that settlements were made in half a dozen places. in stead of being promoted from central base, according to the usual British method. The colonizers are said to have profited by study Of the mis- takes of England which brought about the American Revolution, and so well did they apply the lessons that the far away island today is one of the most loyal portions of the British em- pire. This fact was attested by the way New zealanders far exceeded their expected quota of troops in the World War.
 A chief figure of the colonization was Edward Gibbon Wakefield. as bizarre q character as his association with such distinctive dominion sentence in England for abducting an heiress by means of forged letters. he was debarred from the Parliament upon which he later exerted an indi- rect but potent influence to aid in carrying out the colonization plan now associated with his name. A fundamental part of his policy was, to avoid great landed estates. the Dromiscuous giving away of land to ne CT do- wells and adventures, all finally. though his early disgrace still drove him to work under cover of psedudonymS and agents. he ranked the foremost colonisl authority of his day, a zealous reformed and ideal ist.
 Tt was due to Wakefield that man of substance gained a foothold in New Zealand, that industry rather than exploitation became the motife of the colony, and that the fundamental aim of the government still is that of no millionaires and no paupers.
 The island population, exclusive of Maoris, now exceeds a million. The Maoris. numbering about 50.00o, have risen to a position of emfnence, being represented in the legislative assembly, in the cabinet, and having physicians attorneys and other professional men of note among their numbers

Hence the latent instincts of these savage cannibals were developed here as nowhere else and, even before the English came, the Maoris had gable roofed houses. with eIaborately carved posts and lintels. and interiors decorated with designs of crude bea uty-
 Women were needed in the Strug gle, against harsher natural forces. so they won positions of esteem. and were represented in tribal councils.

Yet they knew not the use of minerals, and their leviathan can oes, lashed together, were constructed with tools of stone, shell. bones, and even of human teeth.

 The elevation of the spiritual nature is what the professedly pious pay too little heed They not only do not pray believing but they do not pray for their enemies-an act which. if sincere. brings to them spiritual sense which in effect amounts to a direct blessing There is still too much of the viper in us: and the old poison glands have not become atrophied What makes prayer effective is sincerity. not self ishness. To love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and thy neighbor as myself. is the price of true spiritual knowledge, which reacts upon the hu- man soul. Results do not come from complaining and whim pering. but be- cause of the action of love. of which the reaction is knowledge of spiritual power

REGULATING slLLsoARDs.

The question of regulating bill boards is one that has given many communities and states nc end oe trouble. At the present time Massa-
 cnuserts is wrestling with the prob
 lem and others are going to watch the
 odtcome of it's efforts in order. to profit
 by it's deliberations and actions
 E1cw the people If the state stand IF on the matter seems to have been
 pretty cone1sIsiveiy decided when the constitutional arf1endment giving the legislature authority to carry on the
 regulation was adopted by over 1oe,
 600 majority. That shows that there
 is strong sent iment against the gross r1isuses to which biilboards have
 been put
 The hfTIboard nuisance is by no means new. It has been wrestled with for a long time. It has bothered thickIy as wen as sparse1y settled sections of cities, served to make un- attractive many sections that might otherwise present fair appearance and served to obstruct views and blotch the landscape throughout the country. It has likewise been the means of depreciating property value
 How to regulate it is the question that Massachusetts is struggling with now. There are those who contend for State regulation and others be- 1ieve that 1t should be done locally If it is the experience that a state regu- lation bill gets more consideration than those that are local the former should by all means be adopted What is needed in every state is the regu- iation that will be most effective. the regulation that regulates and unless that can be obta1ned the undertaking might as well be abandoned. But with rules once established regarding bill l boards public sentiment oughs to De 1 sufficiently strong to see that any violations thereof are quickly brought l to notice of the authorities

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE.

Out through the middle west there is beginning to be realized the inn portance Of giving more attention te the production of wood lands. In the three states Of Ohio. Indiana and IT, linois the estimate is made that there are about four thousand industrial es- tablisi1ments dependent upon the tim Der supply for their raw material
 Naturally in that section there is concern over tie supply of timber and at the same time there has been more or less time and attention given to the meeting of the requirements for these factories in the shape of raw material and it is interesting to note in this connection that there is to be a for estry conference for these three states this month called by tine Indiana con- servation commission for the pur- pose of finding out what can best be done in the opinion Of experts in for estry and conservation to insure the supply for the future.
 That ought to be an excellent op- portunity for the master minds who are working along similar lines to ex- change views relative to the needs of that particular section There seems little question but what while there is need of making every possible use Of all the raw material available there is also need of giving plenty of thought 10 the matter of reforestatioh for while demands may have been large in the past the requirements of a growing country must be given proper consideration and from the way in which our lumber supply is dimfn- ishing the quicker steps are taken to prepare for the future the better il will be.
 One section of the country it is thus indicated seems to be alive to the conditions It is time that more of them were instead of waiting until it is too late then bemoan their negIi- Gence.

CUTTING RED TAPE.

The trouble out in Omaha where the fury of a race riot. that caused death and destruction as well as an attempt 10 lynch the mayor of the city. was allowed to run for hours be- fore 1t could be checked while two army camps were within trolley ser vice or the city has apparently had the effect that was needed to cut some of the red tape that had to be gone through in order to get the services of federal troops when and where they were needed Omaha is not the only place where similar delays have been experienced but il was one of the latest and it was apparently as the result Of the situation there that ac- ton was taken to correct the condi- ton.
 Life. law and order are more inn porianJ than most of the government red tape This has apparently been recognized for every governor in the country has been notified by Secre- Jary of War Baker that wherever there is civil disorder which cannot be controlled by him because of the de- mobilization of the national guard the governor should seek federal aid by communicating direct with the com 1,landing general of the department in which his state is located
 corresponding Crders were at the same time issued 10 the departmen, comm lnders directing them to respond instantly with the aid of the federal troops 10 inE call from a governor V no found himself unable. with the means at his olspesal to suppress disorder and to enforce the local laws
 IT certainly is lime that such action was taken with mob violence growing to tie proportion that it has in the 7sst year or so. with many states without national guards and with the org delays that have been expert enceo In getting federal help in the past One cad condition appears to Lave been given the needed remedy

THE sHANTUNe AMENDMENT

One of the points Of the treaty re cciving much opposition is that deal ing wish the Shartung peninsula. and the opposition 60 1t is because of the Way in which ChIna is trea ted In- stead e giring back t.

 President Wilson las declared tha he did not favor the arrangement but fe approved it because 1T was inc rest that could be done under the cir 'umstances and believes that Japan will be faithful in carrying out if. promises
 The effort in the senate has been To have the treaty amended so thai Shantung would be given 10 China instead of Japan. and this country would not become party to the reten- ton Of this territory firm China even 1T Japan later on returns it or that II would not sanction the giving it to Japan and take the chances of it's ever getting back where it belongs.

 bven as the American delegation protested when the Shantung provis- icn was under consideration in the peace conference it cannot fail to be understood that even though the sen ate has refused to make any textual change m this respect it shows strong sentiment in favor thereof and against the way in which this matter was handled by the peace conference
