UNCLE SAM LEADS
WnI BE ChieC OF Triumvirate to
Govern the World.

Vienna. Aug. 2-Professor Edward
Suess, the eminent publicist and paleon-
tologist has given an interview respect
ing the industrial and political preponder-
ance Of the United States, that attracts
much attention especially as it confirms
the anti-American views of continental
manufacturers and Economists.
The professor, surveying the interna-
tional relations from the standpoint OF
a political philosopher, observes lat
while the French revolution was occasion
eu " the abuses Of the privileged classes
the present situation has been caused by
a revolution Of material conditions. The
declining national sentiment should be
replaced by a movement for the cem-
mon defense Of the central European
states against the American trusts which
are moving to conquer the foreign mar
kets more surely than they could be con-
ouered by battleships. The American bal
ance Of trade has reached an Unparal-
leled figure. II was 4 serious question If
the present political units OF central IEu-
rope is strong enough to make an effect
i've defense. taking into account the
physical conditions. The present shifting
Of the cente rof gravity of the world 5
forces wound create three great units
China, Russia and America. When China
was equipped with railroads the people
would find that she had the most capa-
bic merchants and the cheaRst labor.
Russia would have the largest army
and be the greatest peasant sstate. Eu~
ropean capital would flow 70 the United
states. and would be an important in
crease Of her economic prosperity. OF
the three the United States has decidedly
the lead It's policy was commercial ag-
gression beyond doubt and states ike
the American union and Russia had
gained far more in the way Of the mo-
biiizatlon OF their powers from the con-
struction OF railroads than such countries
as Germany and France.

Ore is not gre-tor nor less than tho
other. each has the qualities necessary
10 make both happy. And men and wo-
men are never seen at better advantage
than when their total uniliseness TO each
other IS most apparent.

masculine woman is ridiculous.
