ABERNATHY BOYS IN OMAHA Arrive Thursday Morning on Horse back Trip from Coast to Coast SPEND THE DAY IS THE CITI Srbedale Calls for lxty Miles a Day aad the Boys F.at aad Sleep Oat af Doors While Tbey Are Enrente.

Former President Criticizes the Pro posed Taft Treaties. WAS BETTER THAN DISHONOR Peace May Be Muaabt at Tea Utah Price aad Hliklessisfu at Times Deataada that tVe Flsht. NEW TORK. Spt. 7-Former President Roosevelt deals with the arbitration treaties recently presented to the senate in an editorial article appesrlng In the Outlook today. He says In art: "It is one ot our prime duties us a nation to seek pence. It is an even higher duty to seek nshteousness. It Is also our duty not to Indulge In shsnns. not to make believe we are getting peace by some patent connivance which sensible men ought to know cannot work In practice, and which, if we sought to make it work, mifcht cuse Irretrievable harm. 1 sincerely believe In the principla of arbitration; 1 believe In applying that principle so far as practicable, but 1 believe that the effort to apply it where it Is nut practicable can not do good and may do erious harm. Confused thinking and ii illi!ines to substitute words for thought, tven though Inspired by an entirely amiable sentimen tality, do not tend toward sound action. Not .'.finld if Var. I think that the great majont;.' o: those persons who advocate any and every treaty which is called a treaty for peace or for arbitiation would be less often drawn into a position that tends to humiliate thalr country If they would take the troublu to formulale clearly and definitely Just what it Is that they desire. Of course there are persons wholly Indif ferent to the national honor and Interest who, in consequence, cannot be reached by an appeal to national honor and interest, and there are other persons whose In grained timidity Is Buch that they are more afraid of war than of any dishonor. personal or national. "We. the American people, believe, and ought to believe, in righteousness first, and in peace as the handmaid of right eousness. We abhor brutality and wrong doing whether exhibited by nations or by individuals. We hold that the same law of righteousness should obtain between na tion and nation as between man and man. I, for one, would rather cut off my hand than see the Cnlted States adopt the atti tude either of cringing before great and powerful nations who wish to wrong us. or by bullying small and weak nations who have done us no wrong. Will Flgbt for Right. "The American people aesire to do justice and to act with frank generosity toward ail the other nations of mankind, but I err in my Judgment of my countrymen if they are willing to submit to wrong and injustict Again and again in the past they have shown and rightly shown that when tn. choice lay between righteousness ait . peace they chose righteousness, just e:. actly as they also chose righteousntvr when the choice lay between righteousnes and war." Mr. Roosevelt cites the revolutionary war, the civil war and the Spanisb-Amen- ' can war as Instances In which "we put righteousness above peace." He also cites the existing arbitration treaties between the United States, Great Britain and France as better than the proposed treaty because they make no false pretenses and exclude questions affecting our vital In terests, independence or honor. Eajoylasi the Trip. Both the boys and their father, who Is a big active appearing man, declare that they have enjoyed the first half ot their long summer's ride. They started from New York August 1 and, of course the re mainder of the journey will be a little the harder riding. Neither Louis nor' the chubby Temple are talkative. "Sure, we like it," each one de clares, but the Incidents of interest along th roadway are slow coming when told from their Hps.
