FOR JOINT REI'RESENTATIVK Peter A. Fullmer. not v iiixifiiors issrii It is difficult, and bound to be difficult, for a lot of Indiana people to find any logical excuse for the movement that seems to be on foot in some sections of the etnte, and occasionally heralded locally, to make the constitutional convention issue a religious one. There Is no denying but that Ihe brewers and liquor interests of the state will do what they can to ward off a constitutional convention beim; held, but if civic state pride and progressive interest are insufficient to successfully combat that influence, we doubt very much if making a ehurch and anti-church issue of it will help it any. The clergy at Indianapolis on the one hand, and liquor interests on the other, appear to be the principals at lault in this connection. It is all rii;ht and proper for clergymen as eitizens. and churchmen as citizens, to exercise their religious feelinuMand j-eiitiments in behalf of any movement that they regard for the public good, but the moment they undertake to exercise those feelings and sentiments as a i lergical or a church movement, they jeopardize it with a whole lot of people that might otherwise be for it. For it has become deep-seated in rery American breast "keep the church and state forever separate". Indiana needs a new constitution, or ; t least a lot of amending done to the !d one but it must be a constitution lor men to be utilized hy them as men, while the only mission of the hurch as recognized by the laws of this land is, to make men of them. Tor the sake of the constitutional convention movement we sincerely hope the Indianapolis clergy will change their methods, and take their stand wiili the rest of the people on this subject as citizens advising their parishioners to go and do likewise; be Christian citizens if they can. and that is welcome, but abandon the ehurchology. 1 I . . 1 . . ! jo oe an .American citizen, ana next; to tluit a citizen of Indiana, is enough when matters political are involved the Christian citizenship is a mere matter of individual quality.

Tin; m:ij ohjfctiox. The Indianapolis News (stand-pat) quotes the South Hcnd Tribune (stand-patter) this way: It is not surprising that South Bend and other cities of the great state of Indiana, which have important municipal problems before the public service commission, have to wait anil wait for the consideration of those problems by the commission.

Li Hung Chang. Though the peace plowshares presented by fir. Bryan to ambassadors and ministers who joined him in signing peace treaties prove not to have been beaten from swords we see no loss of analogy, since they were cast from nuts and bolts from-,the naval gun factory. THE sword is the symbol of war, we admit, and it features in the literature of warfare while nuts and bolts appear only in the invoices but, in actual warfare the nut or the bolt of a gun may be as vitally essential to victory as the sword. Hence, we repeat, we see no loss of analogy. Mr. Bryan is guilty of no breach of the eternal fitnesses. While on the Subject of War. (Tolstoi.) Whoever you may be Frenchman, Russian, Pole, Englishman, Irishman or .Bohemian understand that all your real interests, whatever they may be agricultural, industrial, commercial, artistie, scientific as well as your pleasures and joys, in no way run counter to the interests of other peoples or states; and that you are united by mutual co-operation, by interchange of services, by the joy of wide brotherly intercourse and by the interchange not merely of goods, but also of thoughts and feelings with the folks of other lands. If people would but understand that they are not the sons of some fatherland or other, nor of governments, but are sons of God and can therefore neither be slaves nor enemies one to another those insane, unnecessary, worn-out pernicious organizations called governments, and all the sufferings, violations, humiliations and crimes which they occasion would cease.

The signing by See'y Bryan and the respective ambassadors of the treaties of peace with Great Britain, France, Spain and China marks the impressive culmination of a policy exemplified in practice by our course in Mexico. The common denominator of these treaties is the proviso that all disputes which the usual diplomatic offices fail to adjust shall he placed before a permanent committee of investigation during a period of a year. This action is the effectual insurance of a lasting concord, with dignity and honor, between ourselves and countries whose population is at ! number of the earth's inhabitants. !

It is richt to attribute a lasting significance to the concludi In.i,' of tnese peace compacts, aim io sav of each, as Pres't McKinley said of the Olney-Pauncefote arbitration treaty with Great Britain, that "the importance and moral influence of such a treaty can hardly be overestimated in the cause of advancing civilization." Philadelphia Public Ledger (Ind. Itep.) hiiyavs phut: tkfatifs. The United .States has signed peace treaties with Great Britain. France. Spain and China. The contracting parties agree to submit all disputes i t investigation by a permanent com mission during a period of one year before declaring war. Th step is a wise one. Treaties are not absolute, but they are highly persuasive. They may be broken when it comes to a test, but generally they hold good. They do not afford a certain guarantee of peace, but at least ' they make for it powerfully. These' treaties provide a means whereby hasty action may be prevented, due consideration e.f the issues ; had. excited national feeling g;ven a 1 ehance to subside and a peace-able soi lution aided. !

ALMOST any day it rains a fisherman may be seen wending his way across the apron of the dam. He carries a cane pole over his shoulder and a can of bait in his hand. He differs little, if at all, from other fishermen. One would recognize the type immediately on sight. At the other end of the dam a boat is tied and in this he steps and rows to the middle of the river, where the eddy from the falls holds his craft stationary. Once located he sits and fishes until the shades of evening fall. Then he ties up his little boat, recrosses the dam and repairs to his humble Lome. From time to time the neighbors detect an odor of frying fish in the air, but not often. O. Annette. We see you yet. All uripplng wet. Caught in the net.

Kalamazoo Telegraph Press. Ml! N'T WILSON' IS RIGHT! Pres't Wilson's action with regard to offensive statements made in the United States by foreign diplomats comes none too soon, nor can it be too vigorously followed up. These indiscretions of "trained" diplomats are peculiarly distasteful at this time. They tend to increase the difficulties of the government. Either directly or indirectly, they challenge its announced policies. The idPa that seems to possess some foreign diplomats that this is a country where an.vbody. no matter what his olliclal position, may appeal from the government to the people or give unsolicited advice to the nation did not, of course, originate with the individuals who are at present in had (xlor with Washington. We have had similar' impertinences from foreign diplomats before. In faking appropriate action Pres't YVilson is simply doing what was done in the case of the Frenchman. Genet, and the Englishman.

J German and French birth, for ex ample, the representatives of those nations are not warranted in speaking here as freely as they would at home' in 'their own house; in brief, that this is a nation and not collection of foreign colonies.
