EDGERTON BASHFULNESS IS INVERTED EGOTISM Recently the newspapers had a rerj Tunny story of a Jury foreman so bash ful he could not report the verdict. He got It so twisted that the jury bad to be dismissed, and had not the prisoner simplified matters by pleading guilty a new trial would hare been necessary. It should- be a part of our public school education to train people to speak: In public. Every man and woman should be able to express himself or herself Intelligently before an assemblage If called upon to do so. There Is no more Inherent difficulty lu speaking to many people than In speaking to ope or two. It is merely a matter of forgetting oneself and thinking of the thing to b said. Hashfulness arises from self con sciousness and is only a form of in T'erted vanity. People who think more of their bands and feet than of their message are guilty of this reverse egotism. The man who really has something to say and means to say It will get a hearing. By having his mind on his thought he forgets himself, and the rest is easy. He who thinks of himself more than of his theme must have either a very slight theme or an inflated Idea of himself. There come times in every man's life when it becomes necessary to express himself In public Just as there come times when he must defend himself. He has not a proper, all around training unless he can do either should occasion arise. This does not mean that he should make himself a nuisance by talking too much or that he should be quarrelsome. It only means that he should be able to acquit himself with credit and courage under ail circumstances. Courage is the keynote in both cases. It may require the same sort of courage to overcome stage fright that is called for in facing a bully. The man who is worth his salt will have enough sheer grit to do either. If you would speak In public keep your nerve and stop thinking of yourself. That is the secret. FILE ARTICLES FOR NEWCASTLE BRANCH.

Mrs. Roy E. Baker and her father, William Layman, of Elnora, Ind., have returned from Indianapolis to the former's home in this city following a fruitless search for Roy E. Baker, 27 years old, who disappeared Tuesday and wrote a letter to his wife that she would find his body in Wh'te river at Ind'onapolis. Baker had failed in the manufacturing business in this city. His relatives do not believe he bas carried ouf his suicide threat. To sign some one else's name to a check is about the poorest way of all to forge ahead, bright young man.

Our Policy of Drifting.

The American people are beginning to realize the necessity of a system of established policies for the various departments of government, to be pursued irrespective of changes in administration or the political complexion of congress. Farseeitig statesmen for years have urged such a system of government, but their arguments have been ignored by both Republican and Democratic leaders, who cling to the absurd notion that no matter how beneficial any certain policy one party may establish, it is absolutely essential that the other party oppose it for political reasons. The Republican party has stood for high tariff protection, while, theoretically, the Democratic party advocates tariff for revenue only, and the business interests of the nation are constantly being disturbed by congressional tinkering with the tariff. The sane method of having a commission of experts deal with the tariff, revising schedules from time to time as conditions warrant, has been shunned by both old parties apparently for no other reason than taking the tariff out of the hands of congress would be robbing the two parties of a subject they have used for ages as a campaign issue. Since the Spanish-American war a few real statesmen and all the peoples of our colonial possessions have been urging the establishment of a fixed colonial policy, but in vain, and after fifteen years the Filipinos, for instance, are still in the dark as to whether the American flag is to continue to float over the islands indefinitely or whether it is to be hauled down. True, the Democratic platform declares for the independence of the islands, but a platform declaration by either of the two old Bourbon parties is usually worth less than the paper it is written on. Porto Ricans have been clamoring for American citizenship, but there is no fixed policy concerning the status of those islanders. The United States is the only one of the world powers which has no established naval or military policy. Students of national defense for years have been urging the creation of a fixed naval program and under Presidents McKinley and Roosevelt congress each year, without following any definite plan, appropriated for two battleships. When the lower house went Democratic under the Taft administration this indefinite naval policy was thrown out and it was with difficulty that the friends of the navy secured an appropriation for one battleship. This year the Democratic congress only appropriated for one battleship, and eventually the United States will drop to fifth place as a naval power, although for several years it wa the second naval power.

Nominations By Primary. On Thursday of this week the city Progressive committee will meet for the purpose of reaching some definite plan for the nomination of a municipal ticket, whether by convention or primary. It seems that there is little doubt but that the committee will decide on the primary plan, which is the only consistent action for it to take. The Progressives are pledged to nominations by primary where this method is provided by law, and nominations of city officers by primary is authorized by statute in Indiana. The "argument will be advanced by some people that it would be a hard matter to determine who would be entitled to vote at a primary election, but would not the same difficulty be experienced in determining who could attend the ward meetings and take part in the selection of delegates who would make up the nominating convention ? A primary comes nearer to getting a correct expression of the will of the voters than any other form of nomination, and we hope the committee will make no mistake in the action it takes next Thursday.

(Advertisement) ! EDITORIAL VIEWS. I a FALSE PACIFISM. (Chicago Tribune.) When it first was rumored that a baseball player had pitched a "curved ball" a learned scientist hastened to prove that it could not be done. The incident is recalled by a recent article ln lQe active propagauua Ol Mr. i a. i x t j m a a Carnegie and his group against preparedne68 for war The article is by President Jordan of the Leland Stanford Pr. university, and is called "The Impossible War." The title is characteristic of this group, who are fond of dogmatic statements. To these misguided enthusiasts was must be presented, inferentlally at least, as "impossible," the fear of war "baseless," etc., .etc. Qualifications, when resorted to by the more responsible of them, like Dr. Jordan, are not emphasized. The reason is obvious. Intelligent qualifications virtually destroy the position taken by this group. War must be made to appear impossible, or the demand for adequate defense ia at once seen to be rational. Dr. Jordan's essay on "the impossible war" begins with the round assertion that a general European war Is "humanly impossible." But he follows this up with the following astmishing qualification: It may be. of course, that some halfcrazed archduke or some harassed m'nfstpr rr state will, halt unknowingly. give the signal for Europe's cona- ia lact. lhe agreed signal has been given more than once within the last few months. The tinder is well dried and laid In such a way as to make the most of this catastrophe. Nevertheless, in spite of this dime novelish view of the situation, Dr. UUMT Wait

Jordan assures us for assurance as to the future is another conspicuous attribute of his school of pacifism that "Europe recoils and will recoil, even in the dread stress of spoils division of the Balkan war." Dr. Jordan bases his assertion that a European war, by which it is to be assumed he means a war between the six powers of the triple alliance and the triple entente, is impossible upon the theory that the cost would be pro

hibitive and that "the bankers will not find the money for such a fight." There will be no general war until the masters direct the fighters to fight," he declares, and adds, with the conclusiveness of a Carnegie: "The masters have much to gain but vastly more to lose, and their signal will not be given." Now, stripped of their conceited dogmatism, these statements only re peat the most obvious considerations respecting a war between the great powers. The cost in blood and treasure is fully realized by more careful and responsible minds than Dr. Jordan's, and unquestionably that cost has weighed heavily upon mounting ambition and kept in leash even national resentments and enmities. It makes a general war improbable, but , the statesmen of Europe know very well that it does not make it "impossl- j ble," humanly or inhumanly. That is t why Germany's army has oeen increased within a few days and 1 France's army following. ) President Jordan takes a French of- j flctals estimate that a general war would cost $54,900,000 a day. From this he concludes that the bankers would refuse to finance it. which is but not the naive conclusion that this would end the matter, Bankers may refuse to finance an ambitious enterprise, but when sovereign peoples declare war they can make it, and would make it, on their own resources. The dream that a group of bankers could say them nay is ludicrous. This fact seems to move in the background of President Jordan's mind. So he tells us that "it is not alone the paralysis of debt which checks the rush of armies. The common man is having a word to say." He is. But instead of this being, in our generation, an assuranee of peace, it presents one of the chief dangers of war and one of the chief reasons for MAKES HAIR GROW Parisian Sage an Invigorater that Makes Hair Grow Abundantly or Money Back.

military preparedness. Because Socialist congresses protest taxes for armament and "resolve" against war. It does not follow that the peoples have not and will not make war. Ferrer says the Italian people compelled the war against Turkey. We know the people forced our war upon Spain. The Balkan peoples could not have been kept from war upon Turkey, and it is their leaders who keep France and Germany from making war. The Utopian pacifists shut their eyes to this because it does not square with their opposition to rational preparedness. They are not satisfied to accept at their real value the broad force which are working slowly but surely against the awful arbitrament of war. They see the curs of armament waste and hide their beads in the sand, declaring that war is not.
