It is right that I, as spoke: man of our government, should a tempt to give expression to what believe to be the thought and pu pose of the people of the Unitt states m tnis vital matter. "This great war that broke so su< denly upon the world two years ap and which has swept within its fTan so great a part of the civilized worl has affected us very profoundly, ar we are not only at liberty, it is pe haps our duty to speak very frankl of it and of the great interests < civilization which it affects.

G. some light forward upon the future E as well as backward upon the past. It is plain that this war could have come t_ only as it did, suddenly and out of secret counsels, without warning to the world, without discussion, without any of the deliberate movements of counsel with which it would seem nat e ural to approach so stupendous a conh test. It is probable that if it had been foreseen just what would hapre pen, just what alliances would be a formed, just what forces arrayed 1. against one another, those who brought the great contest on would 5. have been glad to substitute confer3t ence for force. If we ourselves had 3. been affordded some opportunity to m apprise me oemgerents 01 tne attim tude which it would be our duty to w take of the policies and practices yt against which we would feel bound to -e use all our moral and economic strength and in certain circumstances xt even our physical strength also, our s_ own contribution to the counsel which t- might have averted the struggle t would have been considered worth r- weighing and regarding. >t] Must Keep It Safe. "And the lesson which the shock of 1- being takan by surprise in a matter rQ so deeply vital to all the nations of ie the world has made poignantly clear d, is that the peace of the world must id henceforth depend upon a new and r- more wholesome diplomacy. Only |y when the great nations of the world 3f have reached some sort of agreement as to what they hold to be fundamen/e tal to their common interest, and as re to some ieasiuie memou 01 acting in js concert when any nation or grouup of a- nations seeks to disturb those fundatit mental to their common interest, and ie as to some feasible method of acting of in concera when any nation or group v- of nations seeks to disturb those funs. damental things, can we feel that civr ilization is at last in a way of justity fying its existence and claiming to ly be finally established. It is clear that nations must in the future be govid erned by the same high code of honor ts that we demand of individuals, n- "We must, indeed, in the very same to breath with which we avow this conto viction, admit that we have ourselves 3e upon occasion in the pas; been ofin fenders against the law of diplomacy as which we thus forecast, but our cons' viction is not the less clear, but rath/e er the more clear on that account.

Repeated utterances of the leadfa ing statesmen of most of the great a- nations engaged in war have made it t- plain that their thought has come to ts this, that the principles of public as right must henceforth take precedence nf over the individual interests of particular nations, and that the nations of of the world must in some way band to themselves together to see that that w right prevails as against any sort of Presen of the V< was the Clerk anil Bookkeeper o: Union County Dispensary.

That f thought constitutes a chief part of the s passionate conviction of America. 1 "We believe these fundamental t things: First, that every people has a c right to choose the sovereignty under ( which they shall live. Like other na- c ti'ons we have ourselves no doubt once c and again offended against, that a principle when for a little while controlled by selfish passion, as our franker historians have been honorable enough to admit; but it has become more and more our rule of life ( and action.
