The Highlanders have played bet

TAKE 1T CALMLY

Those who fancy that the world is
coming to an end, or that civilization
Is going to blow up, because of what
they term the social unrest" of the
present day could easily restore their
mental poise by a short course in
history.
The world is not experiencing any
thing new. After every great upheav-
al 1t has been shaken with unrest.
Without going back to remote peri
DDS, where there might be room for
dispute, we have only to refer to some
of the crises of recent times to find
conditions approximating those of the
present.
Old men can still remember the
unrest which followed the Civil war
The country was filled with hate. So
c;al institutions were topsy turvey.
Politics became species of insanity
If looked as if all we had hoped for
The American nation had turned to
ashes. Yet time softened the hate
dissipated the frenzy Of politics re
stored the old social equilibrium and
healed the scars Of war
few are old enough to recall the
psrioa q via speculation follovlns

gold in California. 1t was then easy
to demonstrate that we had left the
Old pathway, and show that if existing

Far deeper and more widespread
was the unrest after the American
revolution and the dpheavals which
attended the French revolution. The
chaos which now prevails in Europe
is no greater than that which existed
while Napoleon was tearing up king

garding the future. The instability
of ideas and institutions which now
alarm us, were just as much in evi.
dence then as now.
The truth is, there is no occasion
for becoming alarmed over the des
tiny Of the human race. It Is going
ahead. Civilization is moving for
ward. Our race is still a trife un
tanned but it is sound at the core
It takes rs periodical spree, and suf
fers it's periodical morning after,
but it alway comes around fresh
smiling, hopeful and exuberant afte
it cleanses its face from the stain

Instead of filling the air with Jere

which have not been previously stu

PNFSnENT AGAIN ASKED
ron ARMENIAN REPORT
Senate Henews Request for Find
,ings Of Commission Under
Mai, Gen. Harbord.

The Senate yesterday renewed its
request to President Wilson that II
be furnished a copy Of the report Of
the commission under Maj Gen. Har-
bord that recently made an in
vestigation of the situation in Ar
mehia and nearby countries.
The resolution Of request was Of
Hered by Senator Wadsworth. repub-
llcan New York. who was the author
OF a similar measure last December
and it was adopted without discus
sion.
The Turkish question was first
brought up by Senator King. demo-
crat, Utah. who introduced a resolu
lion expressing sympathy for the
Armenians and urging the allies to
take steps to enable them to obtain
their political Independence.
The resolution suggests that military
. meas sures be taken to expel armed
Turks and kurds from Armenia, and
to protect the natives from recurrence
OF the long continued ma ssacres.
Senator King said the policy of the
allied powers was to leave the Armenian
race facing extinction. Under the Ger
man peace treaty, he said the allies
were bound to set up a protected state
In Armenia, adding that this could not
be done II Turkey was to be allowed
Constantinople
He expressed regret that the Ar
raenians could obtain only Zip service
IN the allied countries for the allevia-
tion Of their tragedy.
