A foreign official in an interview today
with a representative of the Associated
Press said, while the government regrets
the action of the senate, 1t does not think
a collision with the United States will fol-
low, as the time elapsing before the house
can adopt the senate resolution will serve
to calm the hasty thinkers Of the United

the same kind of talk as the jingoes in
America.

salvation Army In America.

The recall of Ballington Booth and
his wife from command OF the Salvation
Army In the United States is having
some side lights thrown upon T. Booth
and his capable wife have done earnest
and successful work in this country.
They have built up n force strong in
numbers and showing the best results
They have made the Salvation Army
better understood in this coutry than it
was before their coming. They have
attracted the sympathetic cooperation
OF persons who have been disposed to
look upon the Salvation Army move
rnent as merely rough and transltory
outburst Of religious tanaticlsm.
While ali this has been going on Ball
ington Booth and his wife have been
taking an increasingly firm hold on the
confidence and affection of the Saliva
ton Army and OF those who have init
mate knowledge of their work. They
have become thoroughly Americanlzed
In feeling and are now American c!ti-
gems So far Us this country Is concern
ed they are recognized heads of the
Salvation Army.
It seems that this is more than old
General Booth, the communder-in-
Chief. can stand. Therefore he deter
mines to sever these relations. The
army wants to rebel Ballington Booth
and his wife say that as soldiers they
must render obedience to authority. but
they cannot conceal their grief and
modification.
A possible result of II, all is a declara-
tion Of INDEPENDENCE that shall make the
Salvation Army in America free from
foreign control. Why not?

AN HISTORICAL MYSTERY.

A ada, or the Missing Links OF n Lost
Chapter In American liistory-Ono OF
the Most Fascinating Publications OF
tho Present TIme-A People who were
wronged by Historians and Lauded by
Poets.
One OF the most remarkable works OF
modern times Is that of Acadia
missing links OF lost chapter In Amer
lean history, by an Acadlan. who is
no other than EdOuard Richard. an OK
member OF the Canadian parliament,
and n great grandson OF that unhappy
people who were deported from Nova
Scotia in l755, and OF whom so much
has been written In history and sung In
poetry. Who has read Longfellow's
sweet lines OF Evangellne's story md
thought for moment OF the awful
sufferinRE md horrors Of her people,
and the doom that unjustlAably fell up
on them that made them outcasts and
pnrIahB through the almost unbclievc-
man? Mr. Richards book tells that
story, and he relates II well, He writes
Il TO supply vacuum In history, the
missing links. or rather the lost. stolen
and Suppressed documents that induced
historians 10 slur and Islander the Aca-
dams. This book will be rcad with
tntenBe human interest. II Is more ro-
mantle than the greatest romance and
a tragedy with nll the pitileRs environ

the brutally strong. Nothing equals

Tn. Presidential Nomination.

They are very perspicacious persons
who see in the selection OF a sergeant
alarms for the ST. Louis convention
something OF great significance in re-
spect OF the presidential nomination.
These persons think they see McKin-
ley-Allison combination. The combi-
nation would be good. but the inference
is strained.
The sargeant-at-arms was chosen by
a subcommittee Of the Republican ma
itonal committee-excellent men who
could no more control The national con-
ventlon than they could turn back the
flow OF the Mississippi by bidding 1t to
60 the other way.
1t is a fair guess that when the con-
ventlon meets all the aspIrants will be
represented on the principle OF every
man for himself with no regard to the
hIndmost. II the combinations are to
como they will come later.
As to the general outcome of the con-
vention Republicans feel perfectly Sc
rene. There is not man In the field
who cannot be elected II nominated. and
there is not one of them who would not
serve with credit to his party ard his
country.
This Is what 1t is for n party to be
rich in men and to have the confidence
Of great country.

The Next Great War.

Everybody thlses It for granted that
long wars are no longer possible. The
next great war will be settled quickly
probably by one big fight. According
to Admiral Gherardi. OF our navy. there
is no room for any nation to be conf
dent Of the outcome OF a war in which II
may be involved. but the greatest naval
power has the greatest reason to hope
for success.
In case of war between the United
States and England Admiral Gherardi
supposes that England might send out
q squadron OF forty ships. We could
not send out an equal number. but IL
we had them and England should come
out of the fight with thirty-four ships,
leaving us but thirty-two. "that would
end the war" We would be beaten.
II Admiral Gherardi is right this
country is always in peril. for 1T has not
the naval establishment to back up any
position that may bring It into conflict
with a second-rate power. Admiral
Gherardl is expressing u professional
opinion on a matter concerning which
he should be well informed, and yet We
want to hear from other men Of his pro-
fession before accepting his gloomy
conclusion,
This much at least is certain, that this
country is doing itself great wrong to
move so slowly In the matter OF Its de-
lenses. The interests placed In peril
are so vast that money cannot measure
them. We can. however, compute the
cost OF such navy as such country
should have. and It should be the first
care of Congress to lay the foundation
OF that navy and to push the construc-
ton with all possible speed.
War ships and coast defenses are not
built In day; but an enemy may de-
scend upon us In an hour. What is the
value of the best diplomacy that is not
backed with guns?

ness. Why he went out to Ashantec
has not been made entirely clear. It
seems that he wished to do something
and to be somebody more than a mere
son-in-law to the queen.
Doubtless there will be u great show
OF national mourning. but OF the British
soldiers who have gone out to Ashantee
to do the fighting there are many who
win never see home again. and honest
hearts will mourn for them. The death
OF prince Is not sadder than the death
Of another man.
