-A"'•r&S*'P»*'- .:>h K£*Rli McHENRY PLAINDEA1,ER, McHENRY, JEbliM ».V ' Wf ¥he father of our country has told '§in personal letters what heavy furdens he had' to carry during the war for independence m : , "Jar' ECAUSfi George Washington be­ lieved sincerely In the inborn In­ alienable right of men born on this soil, or transferred to it, spiritual­ ly as well as physically, to the fruits of freedom and independ­ ence ; because he believed that this . nation was to be held by them free of nil oppression, whether la. Che form of unjust taxation or any, other infringement of the interests, i0 welfare and principles of the inhabitants, he re- * ofeives today the homage of the millions who enjoy the heritage of the free America for which' h» fought and which he helped establish. This, accord* lQ£ to an article in the New York Herald, which ~®&es on to say: ' In this he was at one with other great men bred In the new, free spirit and atmosphere of the" colonies. 'He did not seek to set himself over them, but to work with them, contributing as his part In the struggle his military genius and experience and his carefully trained executive ability. His Ideal was the common good. For that he .gave his time and strength unstintedly, risked his all and withdrew only when government was so well es- , tabllslied that It would not suffer from his retlre- aent. Throughout his career the one reward he sought was that he might partake, "In the midst of my , fellow citizens, the benign influence of good laws • nader a free government, the ever favorite object a Of my heart." Washington, although possessing wealth and po­ sition* although observant of forms and Ceremonies., was in the best sense a democrat, a man who . sought the same privileges and opportunities for everyone of his fellow citizens which he enjoyed and devoted his gifts and energies to that end. That they might have them he not only expended flreely his energies of mind and body, but he con- ^ ':t Btantly exhorted his fellow countrymen to prepare"", themselves for the high destiny that he foresaw for this country, first, by raising and equipping an ade­ quate army, a task that frequently hung leaden on his hands, and, second, by properly safeguarding their rights after, they had been won. I .« < George Washington received less education--in achool--than most lads of poor parentage do today. Be left school before he was sixteen years old. and except in mathematics, in which he had advanced « through geometry and trigonometry, his education did not extend beyond that which boys usually get la the grammar grades of the public schools. What he studied he knew, however, as his carefully kept notebooks attest. He manifested a special aptitude for surveying and for military affairs. This taste led to his having a royal middy's warrant, ob- . falned for him when he was fourteen years old, and only because of his mother's reluctance to have him go to England he was spared to fight for the colonies Instead of becoming an officer In his majesty's service. He had been out of school only a few months 1 When he got his first job--as a surveyor. It was a ' good one, too, for Lord Fairfax, having noted the lad's mental equipment and his intrepidity, gave him a commission to survey his wild acres In the Shenandoah valley. So well did Washington ac­ complish! the arduous task that he was made a pub­ lic surveyor. Almost coincident with his entrance upon a private career young Washington identified himself with jmbllc interests. Fond of athletics and sports as well as of military affairs, he joined the local militia and wheu nineteen years old was made a major. Whejn he was twenties he won his first ^td^uWy in ft!r%xf1innt but disastrous first cam­ paign againjrt the French. It was there that he /£§st tasted the bitter fruits of unpreparedness. j .When Washington went to Philadelphia as a member of the Second Continental congress he wore his provincial uniform, an Instructive expres- ' V rpv DMVfll BY NATURE HOW PACIFIC COAST CITIES HAVE Vast flower of Northern ant to Engineering Skill Forced America. To this name honorable and to preserve the liberty of our country ought to be our only emulation, and he - will be the best soldier and th< best patriot who contributes Ao&t to this glorious work, what­ ever his station or from what- ever part of the country he may Come. Let all distinction of na­ tions, countries and province#** thereof be lost In the generous contest who shall behave with „ the most cburage toward the enlpmy and the most kindness and good humor to each other. t "If any be so lost to virtue and love of country as to continue in such practice after this order they will be severely punished and discharged from the service in disgrace." After the disastrous battie of Long Island Wash­ ington "once more took the liberty of mentioning to "congress that no dependence could be put in militia or other troops than those enlisted and embodied for a longer period than our regulations have heretofore prescribed. "Our liberties must of necessity be greatly has- aftded, if not entirely lost, tf their defense Is left to «ay bnt a permanent standing army. I mean one to exist during war. Men who have been free and . subjected to no control cannot be reduced to order -ia an Instant. ... "There Is no situation on earth l^ss enviable or more distressing," continues Washington," "than that person who is at the head of troops regardless of order and discipline and unprovided with almost every necessity. The difficulties that have sur- .rouuded me since I have been In the service have kept my mind constantly upon the stretch ; the wounds which my feelings as an officer have re­ ceived by a thousand things that have happened contrary to my expectations and wishes; the ef­ fect of my own conduct and present appearance of things so little pleasing to myself as to render it a matter of no surprise to me If I stand capitally cen­ sored by congress . . . Induce a thorough con­ viction in my* mind that It will be Impossible, unless there is a thorough change In our military system, for me to conduct matters to give satisfaction to the public, which Is all the recompense I aim at or aver wish for." This unhappy state of things'was almost wholly due to the feeling manifested in several sections of the country, persisted in to the hampering of Washington's campaign and to the detriment of the cause. Congress was finally prevailed upon by Washington's representations and the tardily dawning consciousness that war was enevitable and that, being so, unpreparedness meant calamity. On I>ecember 20, 1776, hp wrote to the president Of congress: "Short enlistments and a mistaken de­ pendence upon our militia have been the origin of all our misfortune and the great accumulation of our debt. ... I beg leave to give It as my humble opinion that eighty-eight battalions are by no means equal to the opposition you are to make, . and that not a moment's time is to be lost In rais­ ing a greater number, not less. In my • opinion and that of my officers, than one hundred and ten. alon of his feeling In regard to the crisis that was___^; In my judgment this Is not a time to stand to come--in Its way a fulfillment of prophecy-- f<>r during the session he was put at tjie head of the irregular army near Boston. He found that army not only without discipline and equipment, hilt without powder. Men who had enlisted onlj for a few months ran away. Washington ardently appealed to the Continental and Provincial con­ gresses to provide for longer enlistments and an adequate system Of recruitment. Conservative and aristocrat as he was classed, •Washington now favored the radicals, who sought to break with the home government and set up tfeeir own. "I have never entertained the Idea of In accommodation," he said, "since I hqard oi the measures which were adopted In consequence of the Bunker Hill fight." His stanch attitude was maintained In the midst «f disheartening experiences, not only with the aaemy in the field, but with troublemakers in his own camp. "I know the unhappy predicament In Which I stand," he wrote; "I know that much Is ex­ pected of me; I know that, without men, without arms, without ammunition, without anything fit for the accommodation of a soldier, little Is to be . done; and, what is mortifying, I know that 1 can­ not stand Justified to the world without exposing nay own weakness and injuring the cause by de­ claring my wants. My situation has been such that. I have had to use art to conceal it eten from my Oficers." * Jealousies hampered him so sorely that he stern­ ly proclaimed: 'The general most earnestly en* treats the officers and soldiers to consider conse­ quences; that we can no way assist our enemies more than by making divisions among ourselves; that the honor and success of the army and the,' safety of our bleeding country depend upon har Biony and good agreement with each other; that the provinces are all united to oppose the com­ mon enemy and all distinctions in the name of upon expense; our funds are not the only object of consideration. ... It may be thought that I am going a good deal out of my line of duty to advise thus freely. A character to lose, an estate to fortell, the Inestimable blessings of liberty at stake and a life devoted must be ray excuse." Far from holding himself aloof and wanting to keep all power in his own hands, Washington wel­ comed co-operation. After he had been invested with the dictatorial powers necessitated by the emergency of public af­ fairs, the Council of Safetv of New York apolo­ gized for certain measures they had taken in re­ gard to New York troops which were later discov­ ered to have been an infringment of his authority. Washington replied: "I should be unhappy in the belief that any part of my letter to you could be construed into the slightest hint that you wish to Interfere In the military line. Heaven knows that I greatly want the aid of every good man. and that there are not such enviable pleasures attending my Situation as to make me too jealous of Its preroga-' tives. Rather than complain of your efforts In the military way, you deserve the thanks of us all, and 1 feci myself ham>y in this opportunity of return­ ing you mine In the great&ft truth and sincerity." At Valley Forge, where Washington's troops were ;almost naked, had few blankets and scanty food, fee was moved to resentment against "the gentle­ men. without knowing whether the army was real­ ly going into winter quarters or not, reprobating the measure at much as If they thought the sol­ diers were made of stocks and stones and equally insensible of frost and snow, and. moreover, as if they conceived it easily practicable for an Inferior army under the disadvantages I have described ours to be to confine a superior one, In all respects wpll appointed, within the city of Philadelphia an<J to cover from depredation and waste the states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, . . . I can as­ sure these gentlemen that It is a much easier and less distressing thing to draw up remonstrances In a comfortable room by a good fireside than to oc­ cupy a cold, bleak hill and sleep under frost and snow without clothes or blankets. However, al­ though they seem to have little feeling for the naked and distressed soldiers, I feel supera­ bundantly for them, and from my soul I pity those miseries which it Is neither in my power to relieve nSOr prevent." Washington made persistent efforts to get a guaranty of half pay for his officers after the war, himself having no personal interest In the meas­ ure ; he had declared from the first that he would never profit by it to the amount of a single penny. He deprecated constantly the Jealousy of the mili­ tary part of the .government by the civil depart- ^ttent. "If we would pursue a right system of policy," he wrote to a member of congress, "in my opinion, there would be none of these distinctions. We should all, congress and army, be considered as one people, embarked In one cause. In one Interest, acting on the same principle and to the same end.' "That I have not been able to make bows to the thste of poor Colonel B. (who, by the way, I believe never saw one of tl\em) Is to be regretted," he wrote in a letter to iSavid Stuart, "especially as upon these occasions they were indiscriminately be- stowed, and the best I was master of. Would It not have been better to throw the veil of charity over them, ascribing their stiffness to the effects of age or to the unsklllfulness of my teacher raiher than to pride and dignity of office, which. Ood knows, has no charms for me? For I certainly say I had rather be at Mount Vernon with a friend or two about me than to be attended at the seat of government by the officers of state and the rep­ resentatives of every power In Europe." Washington explained that he had reception hours every Tuesday from three to fonr o'clock, when gentlemen came and went, chatted with each other and acted as they pleased. "At their first entrance they salute me. and I them and talk with as many as I can. What pomp there Is In all this I am unable to discover. Per- #hap8 it consists in not sitting. this two reasons are offered: It Is unusual; a more substantial one, I have no room large enough to contain a third of the chairs which would be sufficient to admit It. If It is supposed that ostentation or the fashion of courts could give rise to this custom I will boldly affirm that no supposition was ever more erroneous.' for If I were to give indulgence to my Inclinations every Moment that I could withdraw from the fa- ,.. tl)gue of my station would be spent in retirement. That It Is not proceeds from the sense I entertain of the propriety of giving to everyone as free ac­ cess as consists with that respect which Is due to the chair of government, and that respect 1 conceive Is neither to be acquired nor preserved but by observing a just medium between much . state and too great fau^llarlty." In 1783 Washington, In his second term as presi­ dent, wrote to congress that while he sought peace and urged a faithful discharge of every duty to-,, ward others, he recommended prompt measures nrtt only for defense, but for inforcing Just claims. "There Is a rank due the United States among other nations which will be withheld. If not abso* lutely lost, by the reputation of weakness. If wa desire to avoid Insult we must be able to repel It; If we desire to secure peace, one of the most pow­ erful Instruments of our- prosperity, it must be known that we ace at all times ready for war," he wrote. As he wished to avoid war, so he also wishes to avoid alliances which might jeopardise the peace of the nation. "Against the Insldioos wiles of foreign Influence the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake." he said wamingly. "The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations Is in extending our commercial re­ lations to have as little political connection as possible. . . . "If we remain one people under an efficient gov­ ernment, the period is not far off when we may deny material injury from external annoyance; when we may take such an attitude as will cause the neutrality we may at any time be resolved upon to be scrupulously respected; when belligerents, un-j Jer the impossibility of making acquisitions upon .as, will not lightly hazard the givingus provoca­ tion ; when we may choose peace or war, as our In­ terests, guided by justice, shall counsel."

Fevy people know that trains are along the Pacific coast, Cities lighted and factory power obtained from har­ nessed waterfalls up In the Sierra mountains. It is a commentary on the wonderful industrial progress of Amer­ ica, celebrated by America's Electrical week, that the force which drives the wheels of the Pacific coast commerce is derived from heretofore useless rivers amidst the whitecapped moun­ tains of California. The engineering world has watched with Interest the progress of the great South -Yuba-Bear river development, which had its beginning in 1912 under authority from the California state railroad commission. At that time the Pacific Gas and Electric company entered upon the construction ojf a 225-foot datn at Lake Spaulding by which It was proposed to baek up the waters of the South Yuba river and to transform Lake Spaulding into a great storage reservoir of 43,500-aere feet capacity. This work is again in progress and Is said by engineers to be the finest enterprise, In conserving national re­ sources and In providing hydro-elec­ tric power In great quantities that has yet been undertaken in the West, where this kind of motive force is rap- Idly taking the place of steam and oil power. The Idea of damming the waters of the South Yuba at that point occurred to electrical engineers many years ago, but the great disaster of 1906 and the troubles - that followed caused the project to be temporarily abandoned. The project called for the diversion of water from the South Yuba at the dam through tunnel and ditch into Bear valley, and for the construction of a power house in the Bear River gorge some nine miles below Lake Spaulding, at a point where a head of 1,375 feet was obtainable. From this It was proposed to utilise the water after Its release Into Bear river several times over in its course through mountain and valley down to the point of its arrival at the City of Auburn, some 47 miles below. The fall of the water between the two points being approximately 4.300 feet, It was found possible to survey sires for a chain of not less than seven developments in all,, Altogether, the plans cafliNI for an aggregate development of something like 162.000-horse power. The work on Lake Spaulding was started In 1912. and In the following year tunnM and ditch work was begunupoiMhe Chris­ tian valley plant and also that ad­ jacent to the city «fAuburnv.

Westermarck, In his "History of Hu­ man Marriage," says: " There is uot a shred of genuine evidence for the no­ tion" thut geheral polygamy ever formed a real stage In the history of mankind. "Monogamy is by far the most common form of human marriage. It was so among the ancient people of whom we have any direct knowledge." And another authority states: "It seems probable that from the first hu­ man mating has tended toward monogamlc unions." ' As for marriage laws, there Is little doubt that religious sanctions are older than legal. In Christian countries the marriage laws are generally derived from the law established by the Christian church In the middle ages, which in turn drew many of its rules regarding marriage from the Roman civil law, and was also influenced to some extent by Teutonic Ideals. It is worthy of note that the Greeks and Romans, in their history, show little or no trace of polygamy. Mr. Carnegie's Escape.
