A MAKEsHIFT MEASURE.

The house committee on military affairs has
eliminated the provision for universal training
from the army reorganization bin. This is
done through concession to the notion that there
is union of many factors of opposition that
would make this provision unpopular The
south is opposed because it does not want ne
sroes trained as potential soldiers. The Tout
and out treaty supporters are opposed because
they say the league of nations will settle our
armament for US. The paci6st survival is, OF
course. opposed. Certain elements of the nation
al guard are opposed because they want their
old status and believe this threatened by constl-
tuition of great citizen reserve. Thus there IS
sufficient pressure to turn congress from the adj
vice given by Theodore Roosevelt, General
Wood, General Pershing and many others who
know what ought to be done and are not afraid
tc say what they believe.
The army reorganization bill without pro
vision for universal training is makeshift
measure. 1t does not provide regular army
sufficient to constitute our military prepared
ness. It leaves our reserve establishment as
loosely organized as ever. It is return to the
old unpreparedness that has cost us so dear.

Strong men who feel that they do things

composed the train. The conductor
boarded the car few minutes later
and gave lusty tug at the rope which
led through the cars and was connec-

But the train did not start and, after
a few minutes, the signal was repeat

ductor concluded that something was
wrong and got off to investigate. After
a five-minute wait, the lady passenger

WHY THE TRAIN STOPPED.

New York Evening Post: Railroads
have furnished material for the joke
smith ever since their inception.
Though the larger roads such as the
Erie have supplied goodly share,
yet the little seven-mile-long Nantuck-
let Central, which was condemned a
few years ago for running off the
track eighteen times in one week, "
undoubtedly excelled as source of
humor. Merely to catch sight Of its
train was to smile. But closer ex-
animation of it's equipment was an
education, for where else could one
view in the present century a narrow
gauge railroad operating cars having
oil lamps, pin-and-link couplers and
nothing but hand brakes?
What is in many respects the best
story of the Nantucket Central-and
it is true one-concerns the days,
years ago when the road boosted two
engines. A passenger boarded the
train at the 'Sconset' terminal one at

Thy genius commands thee; with rapture oenoio'

Whelm nations in blood, and wrap cities in fire;
Thy heroes the rights of mankind shall defend,
And triumph pursue them and glory attend
A world is thy realm; for world be thy laws
Fnlargd as thine empire, and Just thy cause
On Freedoms broad basis that empire shall rise,
Extend with the main, and dissolve with the skies
Fair Science her gates thy shall unbar
And the east thy hide the beams OF her star
New bards, and sages unrivald shall soar
To uneXtnguishd when time is no more;
To thee, refuge of virtue desgnd,
Shall fly all nations the best OF mankind;
Here grateful to heaven, with transports sha Drlng
Their incense, fragrant than odors OF spring.
Nor shall thy fair ones to glory ascend .t.-.
And Genius and Beauty in harmony blend
The graces of form shall awake pure desire,
And the charms Of the soul ever cherish the fire;
Their sweetness unmingled. their manners resnd
And Virtues bright image instampd on the Nina
With peace rapture shall teach life to glow.
And light up smile in the aspect Of woe
Thy fleets to all regions thy pow'r shall display,
The nations admire, and the oceans obey
Each shore to thy glory its tribute unfold,
And the and the south yield their spices and gold
As the day-spring unbounded they spendor shall flow,
And earth's little kingdom before thee shall DOW;
While the ensigns OF union, in triumph unfurld,
Hush the tumult OF war and give peace 70 the "or'o

From wars dread confusion 1 pensvely strayd-
The gloom from the of fair heav'n retire

Government Ownership Failure.

Creston Advertiser: After more
than two years of government con-
troll and operation, the railroads Of
the United States are again back in
the hands of the owners. Even the
most optimistic advocates of govern
ment ownership cannot claim that
the experiment has been a success.
There has been deficit of more than
$500, 100000 in spite Of an increase in
rates and there has been a tremen-
dous loss in service. Trains have
been late, freight has been lost i, and
broken in transit and there have been
interminable delays in the shipment
of freight. In addition to this, there
has been great depreciation in equip.
ment, in spite Of the directors state
ment to the contrary; no one who
observes can doubt this. Not all the
trouble can fairly be charged to gov
eminent operation, but there is good
reason for believing that most of It
would have been avoided il the roads
had been under private ownership.
There has been loss in the morale
Of railroad employees, and the public
does not get anything like the service
and accommodation that it received
in the old days. 1t will take long
time to build up again the spirit of
loyalty that characterized the EN-.
ployes of many Of the railroads. and
it will take a long time for the man.
