DECISIVE BATTLE .NEEDED
Tho war does not ?.onvey the idea of
thu imm?diate restoration of peace
not until after there ha? been Home
declBlve hattie giving to one side or tho
other a complete mastery of the situ
ation. True, the (Jermun army failed
in it? attempt to rush like an ava
lanche upon i'ariK, because ltd plans
were frustrated in thc initial move
hy the brilliant fighting and Hkilled
tactics of the Belgians.
But the German army is merely
frustrated, not defeated. The issues
involved in this great battle seem to
require a decisivo battle. The Ger
muu army is a magnificent organiza
tions, hi determined and ls brave. Up
on Its own territory the Gorman army
may present an entirely different kind
of fighting from that which it has
shown on the offensivo in the ap
proach to Paris. The battle toward
which the tremendous armies are con
verging may therefore be the most re
markable and the most momentous
In the whole history of tho world.
It is now likely that thc Germans
ultimately will suffer defeat, and
those who know the rca! heart and
soul of the Gurman people will re
gret that a mad emperor has rushed
into a war of such bloody consequen
ces, of such sorrow laden conflicts.
The great issuo to bo settled In this
war yet may bo not which nation shall
be coneidored superior, but what shall
be the fate of the dynasties?
Is this war the making of the peo
ple? Will the powers which may tri
umph be as cruel in their demande
and exactions as were the instigator!
of a war whose solo purpose seemi
to have bcon covetousness and thc
seeking ot territorial accessions?
A mere cessation of tho fighting
without the settlement of the varioui
vital questions Involved and that bavi
been brought about since the begin
nlng of thia collosal war would no
mean lasting peace. A truce for th)
replenishment of arms, for the re
crulting of fainting battalions, woult
only mean a' prolongation of a strug
gie which is dealtne death and sorrov
as generously as the sower casts hil
grain.
What the world needs ls a deep ant
abiding peace. A pence that wit
spread contentment all over Europ
and assure each nation or each repub
lie that there la no effort being mad
io deprive lt If ita logical and absolut
standing among the other govern
ments of the world:
It-may be that no arbitration ex
capt that ot the bayonet will bria
these Htirf-'neckcd1 nations to an ar.
preclation-of the 'importance aad th
vast futurity of the cauaes at issue
The realization that the rights of th
people rather than the privileges nn
pride of the crown are inevitably ii
volved in this truggle will be the onl
thing to cause a satisfactory termine
Uon of'the war.
Tho serried host? are manoueverln
for position. . The embattled leglor.
are taking their stand. Myriads t
arms are tented upon waiting field
and it may be but a few days befoi
there will be struck a blow whoi
force and effect will be auch that tl
world will realise that m?stet
perches upon the banners of one <
the othor of tho contending armle
and then and only then, will como
peace ' without auBplclon, a pjea*
without auch reprisals that lt may n
be called peace.
May the day be speeded so that tl

THE LESSON OF HAGGIN'S Lil
Jame- B. Haggin, who died li
week, became in hts life time ' t
owner of the greatest race horses
the world. To hame Salvator, Ixw
?treet and Hambarg alone ls to cou
his name with the smartest pages
tu? history o? xtt? tuft. Tita roman
career of this man pointa to hut c
lesson.
He lived to be something like
years old, and* was not a happy tn
although ho had achieved euee esa
numerous ways-as tho world lo?
upon (success. Hts father waa a k
tucktam his mother * christlani
Turk, whose family name was B?n .
Their son, James lien All Haggin,
went to California in 1849 when tho
gold fever swept thia country. Ho
made the foundation of his fortune
practicing law for the miners.
In association with Marcus Daly and
Senator Hearst, father of William II.,
Ilaggin became un owner of the Ana
conda mine, and his Interest sold af
terwards for $9,000,000. Mr. Ilaggin
became thc owner of minen, fron.
Alaska to Chile, and all turned out
well.
He then yielded to the appeal of the
soil, an appeal which comes to every
man during his lifetime, and acquired
a ranch which was as large as the
state of Rhode Island. It was Haggin
who established tho right of irrigation
and L?ade the Joaquin Valley the eden
that lt is.
Haggin raised the largest crop of
hops in the world and tho largest
flock of sheep in America and then
turned his eyes to lils native Blue
GrasB state. He purchased 10,000 acres
and beenme the largest land owner in
the stato of Kentucky, and owned
three times as many race horses as
any other man. Many famous race
horses have passed through his pad
dock gateB.
Haggin was somewhat of a moralist.
Ho said on one occasion, "Raising
hornes is a fascinating occupation. It
foBtcrB tho worst habit of the Ameri
can people, I mean the habit of gamb
ling, which begins in the majority of
racetrack tips."
"Tho worst habit of tho American
people" has been given its last chance
in South Carolina. If Higgin, the
owner of Salvator, thought lt was bad
what must bo the kind of race meets
that have been held in thia state by
promoters of a sport outlawed in other
states?
The one lesson that his life points
out is that ho gave up breeding horses
and converted hlB Kentucky estate
Into a tobacco farm. "A man can't af
ford," said ho, "to be bosBod by his
business,"
That is a great truth from his lips
of a man who bas had big idoas, hs
achieved big thingB. He rer' '
tho pleasures of life aro c
they bo sane and sanely induib
CURE FOR VAGRANCY.
The mayor of Anderson recently un
dertook to keep beggars out of the
oity. The charitable organiationa at
work here and the county home can
take care o: the poor and needy and
no one will be allowed to suffer here.
There are too many professional hog
themselves to the rules or regulated
charities.
.There ia a tendenoy in the south to
permit too roany vagrants, particu
larly among the negroes. If the police
make an arrest, some soft hearted
man may get a trifling negro off the
chatngang. The negro loafer knows
how to wheedle the white man. With
referonce to breaking up vagrancy,
the following from tho Pittsburg, Pa.,
Dispatch may be interesting without
further, comment:
"Saturday night's crusade by the
police against tho loafers and mashers
who infest th0 downtown streets was
the most extensive that has been con
ducted in! recent years and it was pro
ductivo of results. The lodging of a
large number of men and youths be
hind the bars may look like drastic
treatment, hut there Was need for a
thorough clean-up and it la safe to say
that next Saturday evening the fa
vorite occasion for this too popular
pastime bel?g the end of the week,
will, find fewer of these pests of so
ciety parading tholr obnoxious pres*
ehce.
"Every large city, and many a small
ono os well, suffers from the nuis
ance. It waa .once the proud American
boast that a woman might, travel from
one end of the country to the other
without risk of insult, and we were
wont to vaunt our superiority to for
eign nations in this respect
.".Whatever tho reason, conditions
have changed. Gangs ot loafers, ' well
dressed and presenting the .outward
aspect of respectability, make a prac
tice of standing at et re et corners, im
pregnating th0 atmosphere with to
bacco juice and foul language and
audibly commenting on the appear
ance of passers-by. . .. ,
"lt. ls an actual ordeal for a modest
Kiri or wom?h to pass such a group
of loafers, even if their attentions are
restricted to Impudent stores, which 1B
not always inc case. Tno evil ls not
confined to downtown, .but/la.to bo,
mot with all the.nuemorus business
centers scattored about the city. It la
at Ita worst on Saturday evening, as
has been, said/ but the ; professional
J nil nijn rn omi moohiiri. ora hnoo ny;T
night in th? week and tboy are so nu
merous, and persistent that a system
atic campaign Is. necessary for their
elimination.
"Pittsburgh ls no worse in this re
gard Gian other large communities,
but it ls going to be much better. The
evil, fortunately, Is on* that yields
readily to radical treatment,""

the number in wounded and dead .that

be staggering.
Firemen from Paris have been sent j

Losses in Galicia and Poland, where

for moro than three weeks, are even,
greater than those.tn France,and, ac
cording to the orflcial reports,. ? the j
Russians still are following tho Aus
trian and German forces.in the hope ot |
striking another blow before they, can

The report from Petrograd saya the
Russians have severed communication
between Cracow and Przomyol, tho two
fortresses for which the Austrians and
their German allies are heading and
have begun an advance to sever com
munications between Galicia and Bud
apest.
The oplnlonla held that the Germana |
plan some bold stroke against Rennen
kampf before the troops which have I
been.engaged in Galicia can reach hun.
It is pointed out that it would be a
bold stroke indeed, for tho Germans j
to attack the Ruslao fort? on the fron
tier on invade a country that within
a few weeks would be a marah and la

lon of mankind, the final arbiter in
iuch platters, will supply. It would
be unwise, it would be premature toe
a single government, however, fortu
nately separated .from tho present I
struggle and it would be inconsistent
with tho neutral position of any na
tion, which like this has no part in
the contest, to form or express a final
Judgment.
"I need not assure you that this
conclusion, in which I instinctively
feel that you will yourselves concur,
ls spoken frankly because in warm
friendship und as the best means of
perfect .Understanding between us,
an understanding based upon mutual
respect?.admiration and cordiality.
? "You are most welcome and we are
greatly honored i hat you should have j
chosen, us as the friends' before whom
you could lay any matter of vital im
portance to yourselves, in the confi
dence that your cause would be un
derstood and met in tbe same spirit
in which it was conceived and intend
ed."
The text of the statement of the
Belgian high commission, presented
to President Wilson today by Mr. Car
ton de Wiart, was as follows:
"Excellency:
"His Majesty, the Klug of the Bel
gians has charged us with a special
inj sion to the President of the Uni
ted States.
"Ever since lier independence was
first established, Belgium has been de
clared neutral in perpetuity. The neu
trality, guaranteed by the powers, has
recently been violated by one of them.
Had we consented * to abandon our 1
neutrality for the benefit of one of
the belligerents we would have be
trayed qpr obligations toward the.
others and it was the sense of our in
ternational obligations, as well as that
of our dignity and honor that has
driven us to reslstence.
"Thc consetiuences suffered by the
Belgian Station wero not confined' to |
tlie harm' occasioned' by the forced
march oman Invading army. This ar
my not only seized a great portion of
the territory but it committed incred
ible violence the nature of which ls
contrary to the rights of mankind.
"Peaceful inhabitants were massa
cred, defenseless women and children
were outraged, open and undefended
towns were, destroyed, historical and
religious inonuments wer reduced to
dust andi the famous library of the
University of Louvain waa given to
tho flames.
"Our government has appointed a
judicial commission to make an of
ficial investigation, sb aa to thorough
ly and impartially examine the facts
nnd to determine the responsibility
thereof apd I will have the honor, Ex
cellency, to hand over to you the. pro
ceedings of the inquiry.

"It was the request, even to. the in
itiative of the United Stat eh, that all
civilized nations have formulated and
adopted at The Hague a law regulating j
tho rights and usages of war. ...
"We refuse to believe that the war
has abolished tho family of civilized
powers or the regulations to which |
they have freely consented..
> "The American people have always I
displayed their respect for justice,, RB
?search for progress and an Instinctive |
atachment for the laws of humanity.
Therefore, ' it has won a moral In
fluence that is recognised by the en
tire world. It is for thia reason that
Belgium, bound as it Ia to you by ties I
of commerce and increasing friendship |
turns to the American people at thia
time to let them know the real truth
of tho present situation. - .
"Resolved to continue its unflinch
ing defense of its sovereignty and- in
dependence, it deems it a duty to
bring to the attention of the civilized
world thc innumerable (crave breach
es of the right, of mankind, of which
she hos been a victim. .

his mind:

. Mr. Cart?n de Wiart handed to |
President .Wilson th? results of the of

gian government, showing in detail I
