Insular Arrogance. Tlie daring hardihood, the love for adventure ;and cimquest, as well as the pugnacity of the early Knglish people, have been traced by historians! to the insular isolation of the country where Ihey lived. Surrounded by water, residing on ;in island whose fertility is not very great,
the attention of its inhabitants soon turned to
navigation ; and the conquest of the sea and the tempest entailed thereby, developed a race innured ix hardship and loving conquest and adventure. Out of this insular position, then, grew the pugnacity of the Englishmen, both with respect to war an d commerce. In the lapse.of centuries, the Englishman has carried his pugnacity to the ends of this earth. It has marked his successes both as a military and a commercial power. -Along with his pugnacity, there developed another traits namely arrogance and conceit, both by the way, marked characteristics of the whole Anglo-Saxo n race in its treatment of other races;
John Bull believes he can hurt everybody and anything, but that nobody and nothing can hurt
him. , .... Hence, his arrogant attitude toward the Teu
tonic allies and his bulldozing tactics lately to
ward Greece; hence, also his howl at the unmer
cifully severe beating he is receiving. Hence, also, going Imck a little further, his growling when German; enterprise tore away large chunks
of his commercial supremacy. Hence, finally, his arrogance in ;"controlling" American commerce on the Atlantic. Turn now to the other monumental example of insular pug nacity and arrogance LITTLE JAPAN. In Japan the world has seen another race assume the bulldozing characteristic of its British prototype. Flushed with its military victory over Russia, the mikado is now conquering the markets of the East and is preparing for the time when Jaie will dictate on what terms, how and where the United States shall trade in the Pacific. Great Britain in the Atlantic, Japan in the Pacific, insignificant islands, territorially, yet possessed of enough insular arrogance to bulldoze the whole world, the United States included. Insular arrogance in the Atlantic and in the Pacific, with the "United States as a bumper. How soon will the bumper be forced to feel the iron heel of one or both of them ?
Replacing Cannon Fodder. The war has fled about half a million American horses and males to the German guns. The average life of an artillery horse is about twelve days at the front, say military observers. The number of animals bought by the allies is about 2 per cent of the 28,000,000 horses and mules in
the United State on January 1, 1915. The horses bought for export purposes are of a mixed breeding, but do not bring exceptionally high prices. The disposal of about 400,000 horses of inferior breeding leaves worn for the production and sale of higher type animals to replace the ones sold for cannon fodder. ' The man who is able to bring to the market good serviceable animals, suited for general farm work, will be able to realize handsomely on his forethought, argues Prof. E. A. Trowbridge of the University of Missouri.
Chance For Energetic Boys. 'There always is room for an energetic boy" is a maxim thnt is taught from the earliest grades to the senior year in high school. Many boys tire of the monotony of the admonition and become calloused to its truth. They cannot see the fulfillment of the precept in the hundreds of examples that daily confront them. - But the fact remains indisputably true. Good positions are always awaiting good men. And capable men are lacking because too many boys do not grow up to be energetic, hustling men. A wide-awake boy is difficult to find, complain business men and hads of industrial concerns. But when the .head if a business house, factory or financial institution, notices a lad who is attending strictly to business and boosting his employer's business day in and day out, that boy goes to the front, and ho goes fastThe boys of Richmond would do well to look at some of the uen who have succeeded in Richmond, or who began their careers here. Many of them began as messenger boys, porters, office boys. The reward of the zeal with which they did their menial duties was constant promotion which in time boosted them to the head of the ladder. There's a chance for every boy that sees a chance in his present job and is willing to, work. The boss will do the boosting in good time.
Stay Off The Tracks. One hundred and thirty-one persons were killed, 138 were injured about the body, twentysix lost one limb and three lost two limbs by tres
passing on railroad property in the state of Indiana in 1914, according to the report of the Association of Railway Claims Agents. Ninety-three in this list were persons 30 years or under. One hundred and ninety-six were Americans, sixty foreigners and the nationality of forty-two was unknown. During this period, 4,746 were killed and 6,039 injured in the United States. What a frightful toll! Almost 300 lives snuffed out for trespassing on property constantly exposing the trespasser to the hazards of death and injury. The records of the Interstate Commerce Commission indicate that during the last twenty-five years, trespassers have comprised the bulk of deaths on railroads, in fact, so the association sets out, to the extent of 52 per cent. This percentage is not decreasing but is increasing. A comparison of six months ending in March this year with a similar previous period shows that trespassers are courting destruction and injury in increasing numbers. Indiana's death and accident list is a sordid commentary on the negligence of persons trespassing on railroads and how fraught with opportunities for lifetime misery is the practice. Thirty -one boys, 15 years and under, are included in the Indiana list. Parents should take to heart the warning of the railroads and insist that their boys stay off the tracks and quit "hopping" trains.

OLIVER P. MORTON FINED. Delving in the archives or the Miami Union Literary Society, of Miami university, the other day, students found, in an old minute book, two entries regarding students who afterward became men of national fame. The record of the society's meeting of November 1, 1851, says: "Benjamin Harrison made the following motion: 'Mr. Chairman, I move that every man- who spits tobacco juice on the floor of the society hall be fined 6 cents, and that the money thus procured be saved for six months, and at the end of which time a spitbox be purchased."' The minutes of the same society of January 23, 1843, record the fact that Oliver P. Morton was fined 12 y cents for disorderly conduct.
