A cynic Sajs that driving an auto

The chap who knows it all and feels
Impelled to tell it, is so busy that he
has no lime to live. He keeps other
people from living too.
What’s the use of getting up these
dark mornings and wasting electrici
ty? Belter to save it and keep it to
use the night before—to add another
bull to the list.
Many a talker tries to impress you
with the idea that one man is as good
as another but you may discern way
down ueep in his heart that he knows
there are very few in his own class.
One lesson, and only one, history
may be 8ai<l to repeat with direct
ness—that thu world is built somehow
on moral foundations; that in the
long run it is well with the good; in
the long run it la ill with the wicked
—James Anthony Froude.
The Indianapolis Star calU attention
to a peculiarity of the war dispatches
by saying that apparently when a
German drups a bomb h_ hits only
women and children while an allied
aviator can throw one into a crowd
and never touch anyone but a sol
dier in uniform.
If it weren't for snow to shovel,
wood to split, coal to dump, letters
to write, calls to make, and a long
snooze In the morning along wilh a
lot of oiher things on Sundays, more
of us might find time to go to church.
Perhaps we ought to go anyway. This
high pressure civilization will surdy
bring on nervous prostration or a
physical smash-up If It doesn't land
us In the grave in thirty or forty
years.
The Nugget had two scare head
telegraphic stories on Saturday. One
dealt with the rapid conquest cf
Roumania by the Germans, the o*her
with a world-wide plan to bring about
pease. Seth were seat te the' Nugget
as ••otlicial” by the International
News service. But one of them was
generally accepted by readers as true
and the oih.r received with "tncrei
ulny by many. No one doubts that
on Saturday v oa Falkenliuyne s army
had advanced eastward beyond the
Alt river, or that a fresh German
tuiay was g.tag uevvn troui the Trans
ylvanian Alps m the north, or thu.
a £>uig*u army hud creased the Danube
from the aeuth and that all three
armies ware advancing with speed to
ward Bucharest. The dispatches from
several capitals said so and they wort
"omc.ul.” Today s news conhrms the
dispatch oi Saturday. Over a quarlei
• of Uouman.a has certainly been oc
i cupied by the Teu.onic allies and n
i has been done in a week or ten days.
Few readers of ihe Nugget doubt thal
the facts are essentially as stated.
1 Why should the other Iruporlan.
d.spatch to the ettecl that America is
| leading u movement lor peace will,
the aid of all neu.ruls and the Con
sent of ail beli.geien.s be doubt’d.
. The source oi th.s news is the some as
, the other and it is stated to be on
the highest oflicial authority in this
country, and with the approval of the
1 Highest uncials in the various coun
tries at war except Austria. The
■ dtaih of Franz Joseph caused a little
set-back in that country but the new
emperor is said lo be rapidly falling
in line.
What is there about the proposal
of peace that pi o-ulbes ana pro-Ger
lut-ns shuum un..e in tliinku.g as im
possible at this time? Has not the
impossible been uone over and over
tn mis war? Was it nut impossible
to stop me utiuuin advance on Fans?
Vt us it not impossible lo stop the
Russian Steam culler when it SLar'ed
for Berlin! Was it not also impas
sible to halt the German invasion of
itussia betoie it reaen.d Warsaw and
Fetrograd ? it was thought impossi
ble to co^e with ihe suoniannes which
seemed likely lo Control the English
channel, but the neis did it. it was ,
auposs.ble lo scad submarines across
the Atlantic but German ingenuity
did it. It was impossible for air
planes to contend successfully with
the Zeppelins but they have done it.
Aeros did the impossible when they
flew from Fiance lo Munich. And the
Austro-Germans did the impossible
wneu they halted the Roumanians
and Russians in Transylvania, threw
them aside, and pen. Hated Roumania
in great numbers m a movement which
may not stop unui that country is
completely occupied. Now that these
things hate aciually been done inosi j
people forget inal they were once ^
.sought "impossible.”
Most peo.de wno read and think
have loifueti in their ow n minds some
idea as to how the war will be
brought to an end. These concepts j
vary from the condition when "not a j
single German will be left alive” to j
that state where England "can't bor- j
row another penny." One of these I
ts us unthinkable us the other. There I
are innumerable intermediate views
such as "un.il the G rmans are worn
down so that the all.es can sweep on
to Berlin from all sides,” and "until
both sides are so exhausted thal their
people at home will refuse furthei 1
sacrifice and will demand peace at any !
price.”
We believe that the last view men
tioned contains a potent and imme
diate reason for concluding the war.
Let It be remembered that no news
from any of the warring countries
leaks out. except in rare instances,
which is not in accord with the wishes
of the authorities in each country.
News of famine, unirest, unwilling
ness to suffer more for king or flag
never passes the censor. The items
we have received of food riots In Ber
lin, uprising in Hungary, revolts in j
Wales and Ireland, peace meettngi in
Trafalgar square and the like may be
but the trlckings of a great stream
which now threatens to burst all re
i siraint. We do nut know us to tins,
I arid oiler it only as one of a number
! of possible reasons why both eruciue
. nd central powers should be willing
a> cry enough, it bools not that the
-ilies have iitieen or twenty million
,.ien who have not yet fired a rifle
at a "nun." It does not matter
.uskfiar we can figure out how term-,
can bo arranged. No more coulu
one of us figure how tho awfuf thing
.ould possibly start before it began.
..e all bad a dozen cogent rearon..
,'hy such a freightful nigh: mart
ould not arise. Hut it came, is here,
nd will pass, and in its wake wil.
| .me what will.
tfecause we s.ave other expectations
1 ..ail ot a peace which will be some
. uut on the basis of a drawn battle
i s ng reson why it shall not come.
.hut we think is merely our own
j .lought and in no way has influ
ace on the fac.s of the war and the
act that a peace is now being at

.iitlee ou commerce, which has rju

lias uncounted au Van .ages. Tills was
never more manliest man auring the
recent session or congress.
A s iaiisiic.an has li._en analysing
the rivers and harbors bill and the
manner in winch the uppiupr.u.iuiis
were disuibu.ed. lie tinds that these
members of the senate committee on
commerce succeeded in hauling down
.or their suites these hunusome ap
propriations in this one bill.
Marlin, of V 11 gala, us chairman, got
$1,240,000 tor his s.ale; Stmmotis, o:

000; Sheppard, Texas, $2,303,500,
Clarke, Arkansas, $130,500; Shields,
Tennessee, $l,o54,000.
An interesting comparison is possi
ble, if the figures could be collated, ol
the actual value oi all oi the watei -
oourne commerce of these states, as
compared with the appropriation,
made from the federal treasury for
the improvement of their waterways.
Some such comparison was made
,n part during the last session of the
Sixty-third congn ss, by a Wiisaonsin
member, who cited specillc instances
where the total value of all of the
goods carr.ed over certain waterways
was les3 than the annual appropria
.iens which had be n made fur the
improvement of such waterways. The
.igures cited above show that the ne
cessities of commerce have no such
relation to the amount of the orpro
priation3 as the s curing by a state
of a position for one of its senators ^
on the committee on commerce.
