Quite true, but if time changed with the rapidity that woman does, we'd all be dving of old ago before we were three years old. And now we hear that Hennery FordVpa^sengers are engaged in ?quabbling, dissension and argument. Some "Peace Ship," that. Hennery can practice the art of peace-making even before he lands im Norway. Every country in Europe appears to be taking tilnis in baring their teeth at Uncle Sam. First it was Germany, then England and now it is Austria. The first two found that Uncle wasn't scared of bared teeth and Austria will probably find out the same thing. AN ILLOGICAL ARGUMENT. In ihe article, which was published over his name in .yesterday's iwue of the Daily News, II. E. Hcniges made the following state ment : "I want to say to the poor taxpayers of this town ship that when accident or misfortune overtakes you and for one cause or another you are unable to pay your taxes, that this cla^s of men who an? urging with you to vote $50,000 bonds will not come to your relief hut will have their agents or representative!! standing at the court house door to take advantage of our misfortune or poverty and buy our laud by Sheriff >ale through main force." We do not know where Mr. llodges -houM pet that idea, but we desire to call his attention, ami the attention of others of our read ers. to two occurrences that, happened Monday afternoon. One of the fanners of the township went among (he business men of the city taking up subscriptions to aid in rebuilding the Old Ford School house. The responses were liberal and he had over $150 pledged in a very short time. Another farmer went around on the name day. asking the business men of the city to aid a farmer whose house had been burned down las? week. Over $100 was promised in a little over an hour's time. Those are but two instances. They were not the first, nor will they be the last. They are sufficient, however, to prove that Mr. Hodges' statement is without foundation. Tli?'re is one fact that we cannot impress upon the minds of the residents of the township too strongly. That, is, that the business men of Washington realize thai the prosperity of the city rests with the fanners of the county. If the farmer has a poor season, buainessj in the city suffers; if he has good crops, the increase in business is proportionate. i In doing anything to hurt the farmer, the business man hurcs himsolf. If ft was thought that the proposed bond issue would work any hardships upon the residents of the niral sections, is it to be supposed for one minute that all of the leading business men of the flity would givo the project their endorsement? Think it over. MASS MEETING FOR SATURDAY. A mass meeting of the voters of Washington township has been railed for Saturday morning at the court house '"at which time the true sentiment of the voters can be expressed as to whether they will vote for a bond issue for good roads or not." Judging from most of the names, which were attached to the peti tion, the meeting is being called by those who are opposed to the ftwxl roads movement. This is of no material difference, however. Those who are op posed to t.he bond is?*ue have an much right to call a meeting as those who favor it. The program, at the present writing, has not yet been announced, but it will undoubtedly be an interesting one. Every voter in the township, who can possibly do so, is urged to bo present afc the meeting and hear the subject discussed. It will probably menu much in the present campaign. CONTINENTAL ARMY OR MILITIA. \ Although the naval program has Ihhjti the division of national de fense to meet with the greater amount of discussion, the army plan is of equal, if not more, importance. Just what -tcp* will l>r\ taken is unknown, but Secretary Garrison favors a big increase in the standing army, with a large appropriation for new guns, aeroplanes and equipment for artillery, cavalry and infantry. If properly bandied, one of the most- effective plans for increasing our army efficiency would lie, not to create such an immense standing army ? although it is admitted that the present force of 87,000 men should be increased -but to put the State militia on a more capable and worthy basis. 1 With well-drilled militia com pan i en, the United States would bsj afforded a reserve army of over half a million men, and the cost of j their maintenance would bo fsr le*? than that of a huge standing ai^ny. The militia in the past ha* not. been very effective. This has been due largely to lack of interest, and lark of proper instruction^ If, however, a competent military officer or two were planed in charge of each company and could supervise the instruction of the men, marvel oiir results could be obtained. Increase the standing army, if it i* necessary, but let us. by all tnectia, develop the militia. ^ DAILY NEWS WANT ADS GIVE GOOD RESULTS' ' .
