ADVANCE Raving had some 10 years' experience in the Militia, read articles by Catholic Priests on the above subject, and at- tended Divine Service at annual .drill with the aseexrnbled thousands, the thought has been forced home to me, that bat two churches took a sane and sensible view of War and those were The Catholic, and The English. Both deplored its horrors, the frightful devastation and awful waste, but en, coura ed men to take upon themselves the duties of true citizens, and prepare for the defence of their country and the up -holding of its honor in time of need. How different from the sense- less caws the parrot cry of "Jingoism" or "Militarism" froni certain quarters of platform and press at every ap. propriations for strengthening the defence of Our Country, Our Empire, Is it that two these churches, being, or having been State Churches, Lave a more intimate acquaintance with State Craft and a broader outlook on World Affairs ; or is it that men talk loosely on platform, in pulpit and through the press, and don't exactly mean what they say ? We all deplore War. Napoleon is said to have wept when he Iooked on the awful carnage. No doubt Wel, liugton's heart sickened as he saw his battalions desimatea in that frightful struggle and Sherman said "War is Dell" and one might quote denunciation after denunciation of War's horrors but would not its horrors be magnified ten thousand fold to your country if it had to call untrained men to the defence and send them out to be mowed down by the scientifically trained and equipped array of a hostile nation, Russia was unprepared, She was driven out from 'the Coveted lands and her navy beaten in about two hours fighting. In her case to the horror was added the humiliation of defeat. You have just witnessed the case of Turkey, 'humiliated on every hand, shorn of territory and- reduced in influence. The horrors will never be written, they occurred within her former boundaries. She will have to pay, not only her own war burdens, but the bulk of those of her conquer- ors as well, In 1870 France laughed at the warn- ings of her Ambassador at Berlin. War with Germany was unthinkable. There seas no cause. A forged tele- gram furnished the excuse. The horrors were all on French soil. The humiliation of the investment of their Capital city, Paris, the reduction of its inhabitants to the verge of starva- tion, the loss of two fair provinces and the payment of an immense war indemnity was the price paid for their laughter and lack of preparation. So might examples be multiplied but mark the lesson. The unprepared must bear the worst of the horrors, suffer the humiliation and pay the costs. Why then should there be that senseless outcry of "Jingo" and Mili- tarist whenever our Government makes an appropriation for the pur- pose of strengthening the defence of. Our Country, Our Empire ? To my mind War bas been and will be to the end of time, and who dare claim to be so close to the purpose of the Creator as to say it is not as much a part of the Divine system of the Universe as those frightfully destruc- tive forces of Nature, the Storm, the Flood, and the Earthquake. Its aw- ful cruelty is no worse, its horrors no greater, its destructiveness no more terrible. A short time ago we had the Boxer rebellion. in China with the avowed object of driving out the Foreign Devils (missionaries) from the country. Who did not approve of the dispatch of a British man-of-war to the seat of the trouble P Were not prayers of- fered up for its speedy arrival P Were not the reports read with anxiety and did not a sigh of relief and a prayer of thanksgiving go up from every Chris- tian community when the news came that the allies had entered Pekin. The foresight of the British Govern- ment made the dispatch of that man- of-war possible. but when the trouble is over, and our people Safe, any ap, propriation for the increase of our defence is jingoism or militarism, The dog is said to lick the hand that smites it, The tendency of ourpresent- day civilization is to smite the hand that protects it.

Japan bays a standing army of 810,- 000 and a stronger Navy in the Paci- fic, thaiz has the United States, man- ned by born sailors, who would win or commit suicide, The Fhillipines and Hawaiian Islande, perhaps also Lower California would be splendid territory for their suiplue population, " Observer, Shall We Piave The Scott Act? Auburn, May 20, 1013. To the Editor of the Advance, Dear Sir :----I have (read with con- siderable interest the discussion going on in your valuable paper,under the heading, "Shall We Have the Scott Act?" 1 feel it my duty to endeavor to make some reply to the attacks made on the Temperance people by your correspondents Meears, Jno. Ransford and J. R. Beattie. Mr, Ransford in reply to the query, "Why is it necessary to place any re- striction on the liquor tragic ?" states that the reason is to be found in the greed of governments for revenue and in the demands made by the Temper- ance people, who control "A Few Votes." Mr. Bamford has only given part of the reason for the restrictions placed on the traffic. So far as the Govern- ment's greed for revenue is concerned, any government either Grit or Tory knows that the liquor traffic is no source of revenue. On the contrary, it is a cause of considerable expendi- ture inthe ways of jails, asylums, in- creased police forces, etc. Again it is a financial loss to the country in that it provides` livings for men, who do nothing to increase the wealth or productions of the nation. In fact the liquor dealer is a parasite feeding a society and giving nothing, or rather worse, than nothing in return. Again there is a loss in what is known as bad debts. The workingman's money, which should go to buy bread for his family, and to pay his grocery bill is spent for drink, and no dealer can continue in business if accounts are not paid. regularly. If bad debte amount to any considerable sum he must either charge more for his goods, or else assign and in either case the loss is eventually born by the produc- ing class. War to my mind is the result of conditions, for example, japan is a Nation of fifty millions cooped up in a little island of about 161,000 >;q. miles, only one seventh of which le arable. They• are industrious, intellectual, arn- bitious, proud, have beaten China, humiliated Russia and feel themselves a World Power. Their people are de. nied the right of citizenship or even to hold Iands as aliens in the U'tnited States. How would you expect a proud, people to feel under Such con- ditions ? Here are teeming millions restricted to a small area, every foot of which is used to ire utmost limit, looking in on other millions with im- mense areas of land not utilized to the 10th part of its productiveness, a people affluent and living like princes'. Would you not expect the Japanese to want to break in there if they have the power, or would you expect them, a conquering people, to call home their subjects to a meagre fare, ever ,more meagre as the genre roll on, to all the pinphed faces of their dear. ones and with the resignation of despair air to work unheeding, and leaving others in ineresiaing numbers to fate the ever Morn difficult Woggle for eeistenee. Is there not a eonclltton there to pro- voke warfare, What would be your plan of attacking and removing that oondition P Would you just get up and denouudt>t war as awful, wasteful,ran• So, we think we are safe in stating that the Province of Ontario would be many million dollars richer if the liquor traffic were abolished absolute- ly and completely. At least we can state that in the village of Auburn, which has been dry since May let, 1905, business has not suffered in any way, unless it be to the undertaker's. On the contrary, wet -.believe business to be in a much more satisfactory con- dition since local option went into effect. Mr, Ransford speaks of the Temper- ance people controlling, a few votes. For his comfort, we will venture to state that these few votes are in- creasing, and if we could prophesy, we will predict that Ontario will alt be dry in less than two decades. ., Beattie in his letter speaks of the' perance people, as "swivel headed cranks." Well maybe they are, but all cranks are not Temperance Cranks, there are a few on the other side also. Again Mr. Beattie asks for quota- tion from the New Testament, for- bidding the use of liquor. We quote, Ephesians 5: 18 -"Be not drunk with wine wherein is excess," but we would remind Mr. Beattie that the Bible in- stead of laying•down precise rules for our conduct, propounds broad. prin- ciples for our guidance and we most heartily believe that the use of liquor in any form, save as a medicine, is, directly opposed to the principles laid down in the Bible. Thanking you for your trouble, Mr. Editor, I remain respectfully yours, R. H. Munro. WIT AND HUMOR. Dodging, the new manager of abisbuit factory, his name and features being unknown. There was a workman at the concern, who liked to sneak off to a shedd about three in the afternoon, and smoke a pipe and look over the afternoon papers for an hour or so. One day as the workman sat reading and smoking in the shed, Dodgin are peared "Who are you ?" Dodgins asked sternly, frowning at the idle work- man. The workman frowned, back. ""Buhl Who are you ?" said he, "rm Dodgin, the new manager," was the reply. At this the workman smiled, "So ane It" he said heartily, "Come in and have a smoke." SOME GOOD ADVICE. Bl h.
