citizenry well informed in the princi-

is also alive to the necessity of doing
by every citizen actively and lawfully
all in his power to make those prin-

Professor Davis also thinks that the
state should be more closely united
if the best results are to be procured
in carrying on every progressive
movement aud says:
The spirit that showed itself so
nobly in the late war, the spirit that
led old men to leave the comforts that
long life of industry had procured,
young men to give up ambitions they
had cherished, women to take up du-
ties it had been thought they were un-
fitted for and that aroused in the
very children in the land feeling of
patriotism, the spirit, say that led
to all this disturbances of the even
tenor of society and the joining of all
portions of our citizenry in the accom-
plishing of one common purpose, is
the kind of cooperation that must be
secured in times of peace if we are
to have united peaceful, progressive

ating with the Secretary of War at the
request of the State Department, the
District Of Columbia Supreme Court
was informed to-day by acting Secre-
tary Woodbury.
This information was given the court
in the answer by the Navy Department
to the rule issued by Justice Stafford
requiring the department to show cause
why it should not be enjoined from in
terfering with the telegraph company
in connecting the cable.
Mr. Woodbury. pointed out that Sec
retary Baker had revoked the permit
gEan ted the company for connecting he
cable lines and that the navy had taken
the necessary steps TO prevent the
carrying out Of the work by the COM
pany because it considered that the
company was without legal authority
to continue the work.
Counsel for the company argued that
the President was without authority to
Interfere in the laying Of cables and
that it could proceed legally with the
work regardless OF the revocation Of the
permit as granted by Secretary Baker
Further argument was continued by
the court until Tuesday to permit the

Dry Leader Says
Moral Conscience of
England Is Gone
People Never Will Accept
Prohibition Except Under
Pressure From Other Ma
lions, View of DR.. Henry

The people Of England will never ac-
cept prohibition Of their own free will
Dr.. George W. Henry, one Of the cam
palgn speakers who returned recently
from Scotland, where he took part in
the dry campaign with "Pussyfoot"
Johnson, said yesterday. 1t is the con-
tention of DR.. Henry that "the moral
conscience Of England Is gone" and
that the nation will 60 dry only
1hSougn the moral persuasion which
Wl!i come from other nations and from
pressure which will be exerted upon
her by her dolninions and the other
countries of Great Britain.
DR.. Henry further contends that II
IS only matter of time before Scot
land. Ireland anc Wales will be dry
Our success at the recent Scottish
eicctlons.' he said, "is greater than
most Americans aeaize. Twenty-Five
per cent Of the voting districts of Scot
lani signifed their willingness at the
elections to accept the prohibition veto
act of 1913.
hon ,That is is only the first step. If the
neht me-, al. ana ireland becomes self-govern-
lnS, the first bill to pass the Irish
/,
for, the people Of Ireland, and particu-
Iarly those in the north Of Ireland. are
the most abstemious in the world. The
sltuation is very dubious just now in
Wales. for the Welsh miners are par
ticularlly fond of their toddy and gin.
In England itself, however, condi-
tlons are altogether different,' DR..
Henry continued. There was never
more drinking in England than there
IS to-day. The public houses are
crowded, not by men alone but by the
host Of women who have learned to
drink during the war. Long queues
leading from the doors of the public
houses is & common sight in England
on Sunday night. The people of Eng
land spend more in one year for booze
than they do in three for boots The
unofficial figure for this year is four
hundred million pounds sterling. If
prohibition is to come to England it
must cHme from the outside, for the
Englishman is too fond of what he
terms personal liberty TO impose pro-
hibition on himself; and, besides. the
moral conscience Of England is gone"
