SUCCESSORS TO DYsENFoRTH

1t is saddening that the trend of express.
ions with regard to the Government rain
making experiments is decidedly skeptical.
The Teas Farm and Ranch, an agricul.
tural journal published at Dallas, asserts
as the result of investigation, that the re.
ported successes in rain-making were false
that the experiments were ridiculous fail.
ures, and that some of the rain asserted to
have been produced fell the day before
General Dyrenforth unpacked his war ma.
teriaL Finally, asserts the Texas editor,
sit is probably true that more atmospheric
conclusion was made by the jack-rabbit
hunters in one day than by the combined
efforts of the rain-makers'
With due regrets for the departed glories
of the rain-makers, this trencbant
slaughter of their record points out one
hope for the artificial production of rain.
If atmospheric conclusion is the thing, our
Texan cotemporary, while dashing our
hopes in one direction, gives us solace in
the other. No one can doubt that selec-
ton of Texas jack-rabbit hunters would
produce very strenuous conclusion, both by
their artillery and their verbal thunders,
when the rabbits got away. 1t is hoped
these hunters may make rain where Dy-

REMARKABLE REPUBL1cAN1snI

Concerning the reports of organized
opposition to the Fonseca dictatorship in
Brazil, the Washington Star says that
they may have little or no foundation in
fact" and adds: "The friends of repub-
icanism and of Brazil will hope that this
may turn out to be the case"
In other words it is asserted by news
paper in this country that when the exec
utive head of the government overthrows
by his usurpations even the semblance of
republican government the friends of re-
publicanism and of Brazil will hope that
the Brazilians will accept military
tyranny without opposition. That is a
very remarkable assertion. So far as any
meaning can be assigned it means that
the fundamental principles of repre-
sentative and popular government are, in
the opinion of this class of republicans,
not worth struggling for.
To this singular assertion it should be
hoped by the friends of republicanism and
Brazil that the Brazilians will fight with
all their might for the maintenance of
popular government and against the usur-
patien Of dictatorship founded on the
same Pratorian basis as that which created
Roman Emperors in the decadence.

BULWER'S PROPHECIES.
France and America Will Eventually In
wade England.

France and America Will Eventually In
wade England.
London Daily News.1
A curious letter from the late Lord Lytton,
then E. L. Bulwer, will be found in the
memoirs of Miss Catherine Hutton, just
published under the title of "Reminiscences
of 4 Gentlewoman of the Last Century"
Its date is April, 1912, the period OF Sir Rob-
ert Peers first Income-tax Budget, and the
author of Pelham appears by this letter
to have regarded that measure with melan-
choly forebodings. He considers that such
a step ought to be "the last resource of a ma
tion," reserved for the contingency of a
European war. "And who, he asks, can say
when that may take place, seeing the al
most universal hostility of France against
US, which 1 believe the death of Louis Phil
ippe will at once release from restraint?
off like Zanoni, 1 might venture to pre-
dict, 1 would hazard two assertions that
now would be considered preposterous-
first. that England will be invaded ana over
run by America and France, our navy con-
quered and London taken; secondly, that we
should drive back the enemy, and that the
time will come when the preservation of
Europe will force the great powers to
destroy France as nation, and to parcel it
must ultimately engulf Europe, or Europe
crush France; of this last I am certain"
The vanity of political prophecy could not
be better eXemplif1ed than by the facts that
while happily no one of these grave con-
tingencies has arisen, the writer of the
Cabinet Minister in a Government on the
best of terms with France, and his son is at
this moment, English Ambassador to the
French Republic.

TOO MUCH MARGIN.

Now that the work of the New York
Press in hunting the Tammany tiger has
ended. it returns to its steady and, let us
hope, more profitable occupation of boom
ing the Nicaragua Canal scheme. Its last
effort is an extended editorial based on the
expression of the London Engineering
Journal, which, it says, confirms its stand
as to the merits of the route and the &C.
curacy of Chief Engineer Menocal's esti.
mates
But somehow the esteemed Press omits
to say that the estimates thus confirmed
by what it asserts to be high authority,
placed the cost of the canal at the total of
about S75, 900, while the proposition
urged before Congress is that the United
States shall indorse bonds for the corpora
ton to the extent of S100,OO0,0OO. This
omission may be due to the difficulty of ey-
planning why the Government should
guarantee the payment of S25, ,OOO, 900 more
than the estimated cost of the canal, un-
less there is some construction company
arrangement through which the promoters
of the scheme intend to make that sum by
unloading the canal On the United States.
The Nicaragua Canal may have all the
commercial advantages that are claimed
for it. But that is no reason why the
Credit Mobilier business should be re-
peated. Neither will it justify the sink
ing OF S10O.Oo0,0O0 of Government credit a
thousand miles away from its nearest
border, while waterways are needed for
an internal commerce of far more import
ance to the people of the United States.
