Vigorous Style.

Washington, Aug. 24.-The ex-
treme caution OF the State depart
ment in dealing with the situation in
China, where the Japanese have vio-
laued Chinese neutrality, and in Ven-
ezuela, where President Bastro holds
helpless the properties OF the asphalt
trust, is attributed to the proximity
OF the presidential election. Every
head OF department in Washington
knows that the President desires
things TO run along in hum-drum
fashion until after election.
Nowhere is 1t more keenly realized
than at the state department that q
radical foreign policy In China might
present complications embarrassing
at home. The administr ,tion pre-.
iers that the agreement which Secre-
tary Hay brought about among the
Powers to respect the neutrality OF
China should remain an agreement
only on paper, rather than take the
lead in correcting the dangers grow
ing out OF the entry OF neutral Chi
nese harbors by Japanese warships.
In Venezuela President Castro has
apparently checkmated the bold de-
mand made by Mr.. Bowen for the
release OF the properties oil the New
York and Bermudese Asphalt Com.
pany from the hands OF the Venezu.
elan receiver.
Mr.. Bowen's demand was met with
refusal, On less pretext than this the
navy department. has hitherto order
ed American warships to Laguayra.
The British government early Or
dered the Tribune to Venezuelan
waters, but no American warship
has headed that way. The nearest
approach Of the flag to Venezuela is
found In the announcement that
after visiting Haytian waters Admi.
raj Sigsbee's flagship, the Newark,
"may" go to Cartagena, which is not
Venezuelan port at all, but in Co.
lombis near by.
Knowing the slowness Of the vene.
zuelan courts, it is said at the state
department that there is plenty Of
time to deal with the situation. The
asphalt trust, however, is losing
money every day.

connection with the future of the

In assuming that sell government
as you used the phrase, is identical

Judge Parker said:
1.-The incident OF war brought the

we are not at liberty to disregard

s~bserved by preparing the islands
as rapidly as possible for selfgovern-

ances that it will come as soon as
they are reasonably prepared forit."
The Democratic national platform
says, regarding the Fiiipinos:
I'VE insist that we ought to do
