Mr.. Harvey's Speech.

The freedom from circuitous diplo-
matte expression in delivering him
self of his message to Europe was as
true to George Harvey himself as II
spoken on American soil when he was
a private citizen. This is hne.
A speech SO good in the main, 1t is
a pity that what Mr.. Harvey said with
regard to Americas entrance into the
war didn't carry quite the right favor.
1t portrayed America as actuated
solely by selfishness. having no senti-
nent beyond her own interests. in
helping the allies to win the war.
Certainly this is no. the opinion Of
tho New York Herald and 1t 10 not
the opinion Of the American people.
II is true that it was to our inter
est to have Germany overthrown m

Not So Warm Today.

Those who made complaint yester.
day against the heat Of the we6ther
have won their case. They wished for
lower temperature and they got their
wish. The day has been less sugges.
tive Of May flowers than of autumn
leaves. Weather will change but It
must tax the memory Of old inhab.
itants to recall any other weather
quite so changeable as this. It would
seem that there might be some food
sense in the femifine style Of wearing
furs in summer and II is to Be noted
that fathers and brothers have put
away and taken out their overcoats 30
often since last December that . Ger.
tain mouotony has come to attend the
process. However. It seems almost
useless either to eulosi4s Or denounce
the weather. It may give one q cef.
tain degree Of satisfaction in voseine
his sentiments. but the expression Of
ones views seems not to be at all In
nuential with tho weather.

"The INSPIRED BEGINNING"

In his speeches in New York yes
terday-an were excellent-the Presi-
dent said some striking things. likely
to be and worthy to be pondered at
this time. Take this for sample:
Justice. like charity, must begin at
home. We must be Just to ourselves
and to our own. f1rst Of all. This is
not selfish, for selashness seeks more
than fair share; We seek only that
which Is rightfully our own. and then
to preserve that to ourselves and our
posterity. The war sadly disjointed
things in the world. and we are now
seeking to restore the proper balance.
In our efforts to do this. to achieve
justice without selfishness, we will do
well to cling to our flrm foundations:
believe in the inspired beginning"
The last line Is worthy to stand with
the best lines ever uttered BY anybody
at any time on the same subject.
For the beginning was inspired, ~
We use the word. The men who con-
ceived the American government
government of. by, and for the people
and put the conception into form.
and set the form to functioning,
were extraordinary men appraised even
according to the highest standards.
Their work has received the homage
Of the picked men Of all nations. The
greatest statesman In a hundred years
Of the nation from which We separated
to establish ours-Giadstone-spoke IN
terms Of unbounded praise of the
genius for government the fathers had
shown.
Our greatest statesman since the
days Of the fathefs-Ldncoin- drew
upon the country's resources heavily
in heroic effort to preserve the coun-
try's institutions, and succeeded so
well that even the enemies of that day
are among the country's stanchest
supporters OF this day.
We shall do we'll. therefore, II We
take the Presidents advice and "clink
to our arm foundations" How could
we possibly better ourselves by casting
of from them?

Fredericksburg has been long pre-.
pairing for this observance Of the ripe
and honorable age it has attained.
All its people have joined in and have
put their spirit into the work Of show
ing the world that their fine city IL not
only old and historic, but also new and
bustling. Two and a half centuries
have passed away since white men
settled on the right bank Of the Rap
pahannock. near the Falls, and Frede-
ricksburg's historic memories and re.
nowns are great and numerous enough
to supply half a dozen towns with
fame. Yet she does not rest her claims
for recognition on her past alone. She
wants to show you that she is a busy,
prosperous, up-to-date city. and that
in civic enterprise, civic conveniences,
public utilities and in all modern ways
she can hold her own with the newest,
freshest towns.

Roads for War.

Gen. PershinS Is to appear before
the Senate committee on post offices
and post roads to testify as to the
value Of good roads in war. 1t is
gagged much attention few years
ago. but Americans know more about
that sort Of thing now.
The first striking lesson they had
following, the civil war was on the
Mexican border, when that vast re-
gion had to be patrollcd 10 keep villa
and other bandits on their own SIDE
of the river. The task proved inn
possible, and at that time Gen.. VAN
derbilt proposed that the national
mobile road along the whole Mexican
frontier. Then came the big war. and
the government turned once more to
the roads when railroads and water
ways proved inadequate. Much use
was made Of the Highways, and moro
had been more of them capable Of
standing up under continued use by
auto trucks.
No pacifst can object to considering
for cooperation between the states
and the general government in road
building. Any road that will carry
munitions to soldiers will carry wheat

so much from Indigestion that she
couldn't eat thing but what caus-
ed pains in the pit Of her stomach.
She was so nervous and in such
misery from Indigestion she couldn't
sleep much at night. It was an eff
fort for her to do the least thing
about the house and she looked so
weak and tired all the time that |
was greatly worried about her
II don't think she could have
kept up much longer II she hadn't
got Tanlac when she did and it's
simply astonishing the way she I'M

or nervousness and does her house
work without a bit OF trouble
