The purpose of this meeting was to study tlie cause of war and its prevention. The meeting was unlike practical!* every other gathering held at any previous iime to discuss wars. Such assemblies ordinarily are politioal as semblies which gather themselves together for the purpose of playing on some popular chord which appeals, to -some important political division. In the recent assembly.il was a gathering of a large number of American womn, the mothers \>f the men of the country; the women who are unwilling to see their sons slain in war, and wh'o are unwilling to see their posterity burdened with heavy war taxes. The purpose of this meeting was to elwaurage peace and justice between man and nations and "to create a spirit of-love and fellowship, that re moves from the minds of the people the thought of war. The general idea of the delegates was to talk peace and act peace and we would have peace, as on the other hand if w'e talk war, we will have w&r. There was a note expressed in the deliberations that nations feel theii \n security because they know they either have or are committing a wrong Then i. is that they make preparations for war, because 'hey expect to lie assailed. Just as the man who commits a crime, when he'hears a knock at the door expects to see the sheriff come in. . Hut if he >s at peace with all men and knows that all his ac s have been approved by his fellowmen, he lias no fear and mak no preparation for defense. The Forgotten Man SAL) NEWS ot the forgotten man is heard at every turn of the road At no lime sjnce the Civil War reconstruction period has there beei such di» ress and uncertainty anuw'ig tUe agricultural classes as thdre is to day. "" The forgotten man is the fellow who melts the frost of the winter from the land in puts it in condition to produce the bread of life that people may be fed. The methods followeiT'Dy 'thauclass of people have proven inade quate. The freedom once breathed by the tillers of the soil has been sapped out of them, and many of them are nyw found helpless. Ihe two mgst, nideous monsters that grip men—one debt, the other poverty to Die point of hunger—are staring tliem in the face. We have forgotten iliul there are thousands who face one or both of these conditions. It is onl> a common thing these days to see old homesteads go under mortgage, and for the fiist tune since granted by the English crown to the Lord Proprietors his >uch been the case. These mortgages are not; going into the hands of 'friendly neighbors, because there are few able to j help, but in the hands of foreign, nontaxable bond holders. Certainly these people have hopes that some condition will prevail that will enable them to reclaim thai which they have lost. Yet what gnuuncls arc there for such hope*, if the sys'em has put theSn in a hole is the same system they are relying on to pull them out. I'-rhap.- one other wa> which they rely is to""slop spending for such things as others of the com munity have. The farniei can deny his children the opportunities of schools anJ of clo'hes ai d such other things as other ptople have, and may be able to restore himself to some extent, to what he once considered an independ ent position in life. "It will be a genius that tells the world how a farmer who has lost houses, land, and teams, under a certain system of economic procedure, can pay taxes, interest, and big prices and regain that which he has lost. And is it true that there afe people, yea, hundreds and thousands even, in our own section thatahave to look to some one —and some one, too, who usually wants large profits—for every meal they eat and --every thread they w;eai. In a recent observation a woman .was found in the field assisting her husband distribute fertilizers, while her six small children were huddled around a small fire. Another observation revealed three women shelling peanuts for planting while one small child lay quite sick, with what was supposed to lie diptheria, they were too poor-110 doctor/had been called These people are the forgotten filk. drifted, partly through misfor'une—maybe ignorance or imprudence- to a stage in life in which they have lost that valuable part in man which gives him that feeling that he is not an outcast and looked down upon by men. These are the people aAter all who are feed,ng the world, and though ragged, ignorant, and pec*. haps undependubte, yet hey are entitled to more considera ion! • , % The the people is to find the forgotten man and help him up, He is now only a servant for some other fellow, who, in turn, is a servant for some liinher-up fellow. The condition is perhaps more serious than we think. See the fellow who Is in the*.'death grip of debt and the fellow who is hungry and ask ihem._ Remember these are not always bail people. Many may have-been more honorable than the more fortunate fellow in business.
