UPRISING
EXPLAINED.

troops In the Cross and Nsassanang riv-
ers region OF German Kamerun. Equa-
torial West Africa, resulting in several
factories OF the Northwest Kamerun
company being burned down and four
Germans killed. as announced I'm these
dispatches Monday, was caused by the
eccentric conduct OF Count Won Pueckler
and was directly due to the theft OF
lantern from the Northwest Kamerun
company.
Won Pueckler. who was the govern
ments district commissioner. was re-
ported 10 be an acute and sensible ad-
ministrator. having sound knowledge OF
the natives ways and character.
The president OF the company. Or.
| Schoeller, received in December last
long letter from Count Won Pueckler re-
gardng tho stolen lantern, concluding
with the assertion that he intended to
make the property OF white men respect
ed by burning ive villages.
Herr schoeller inferred from the vio-
lence or the language OF Won Pueckler
that the latter was deranged and wrote
both to the count and TO the agents OF
the company, commanding that nothing
be done over so trivial n matter. saying
that the company for the first time was
about to pay a dividend. and adding that
the good will OF the natives must be cul-
tivated. Herr Schoeller's letters arrived
too late.

GOVERNOK STANDS FIRM

All doubt as to the nature of the an
swer Of Governor Warfield to the letter
that will be sen, to him by Chairman
Murray Vandiver, of the Democratic
State Central Committee, inquiring as t"
his intentions in refere nee to the two
Constitutional amendments passed by the
last Legislature, was put at rest Monday
when his Excellency at a conference with
Attorney General Bryan announced that
he intended to MAINTAIN the position TAX
en- by him last winter, and added that III
his opinion any other course at this time
would simply mean self qualification.
He told Mr.. Bryan that, acting upon his
advice, he would reply to the letter when
it was received, stating that he does not
intend to advertise the amen@m"n'S al
adhering to his original staLu tnat the
amendments were not legally passed
This determination of the Governor was
communicated later to the counsel who
will represent Mr. Vandivtr in the suit
to be Instituted next month.
Up to NJ ,niay a:tern BON there was still
lingo ring hope among some Of the Dem
ocratic leaders that the Governor would
not feel it his duty to refuse to advertise
the amendments, and that court proceed
ings could be avoided, but the emphatic
way in which he expressed himself
Monday af.ern Don when he conferred
with Mr. Bryan absolutely destroyed this
hope, and the Democratic leaders are now
going forward on the assumption that

The restlessness manifested
throughout the world at present is
attracting the attention of the obser-
want says the Alexandria "Gazett."
There is apprehension that serious ID
ternational troubles, if not actual
clashes, are imminent, and sober states
men and conservative newspapers are
unable to penetrate the fog bank
which occasionally form. 1t seems
that England, after her friction with
Russia incident to the North Sea
affair, is now alarmed over the dimen-
sions of the German navy and the
possibility Of trouble with the Kaiser.
Great Britain has long realized that
a tremendous struggle for supremacy
between the English-speaking and the
Teutonic races is yet to come, and
every movement of King William is
subject to the close scrutiny of British
statesmen. Apart from all this, trouble
between Austria and Italy are liable
to renew war between those countries.
Old wounds have recently been open
ed by injudicious student at Inns
bruck, and the scenes in the Austrian
Reichstag and at Rome recently
show that the hot headed of both
countries want an appeal to arms.
The terrible carnage incident to the
struggle between Russia and Japan
is appalling, anil there is no telling
what is to follow in the wake of this
bloody war. So far the United States
has held aloof from international en-
tanglemen,s, but cloud is likely to
arise on the horizon at any moment
to disturb cur peace. Should the
waters fail to be troubled by disputes
with foreign countries, the elements
of destruction are in the nation in the
tho shape of chronic disturhers OF tbs
peace who pose as political economists
reformers, strikers, rioters, 4. Some
scenes in Chicago during the past few
DAYS show that the United States con
tains a large percentage OF restless
people who desire to perpetuate dis
cord. France has for some time had
similar troubles to contend with.

CONSTITUTIONAL

More than on constitutional ques-
ton is likely to arise in the contro-
versy between the Governor and the
trainers and supporters of the suff-
rage amendment With the best
lawyers in the state at odds as to the
point upon which the controversy will
be carried into the courts, it would be
folly to attempt forecast eff the
result of the impending litigation.
But the educational value of the
suit which will probably be instituted
by the chairman Of the state central
committee in his personal capacity
against the Governor of Maryland
will be great. Maryland's constitu-
ton has undergone many changes
since it's first adoption, and some OF
the amendments made to it were
brought about by just such conflicts
of opinion between coordinate branches
of the government as existed between
the Governor and the last Legislature
From the time that the Colonial
Assembly returned to Lord Baltimore
his laws with the firm and respectful
message that the freemen of Maryland
could originate their own legislation,
the Maryland Assembly has been
marked for its insistence upon its full
prerogative.
In the present case, however, there
is no attempt upon the part OF the
Governor to override the Legislature,
but merely determination that his
full, as be conceives it, prerogative
shall be respected in the interests of
legality. Should it appear, as re-
suit of a suit at law, that the good
roads and the suffrage amendments
passed 10y the last Legislature did
not require his signature, the Cover
nor will be compelled to duly adver-
tised them according to the speeifica-
tions of the law. On the other hand,
should the opinion of the Governor,
in which he is sustained by the attor'
ney general, receive the support OF
the courts, the will of the Legislature
will be defeated. The point at issue
is new one, and its determination
by friendly suit will contribute to the
clarity ing of the whole question OF the
respective lowers ofthe Governor and
the Assembly.
In its bearings it will also serve
to illustrate broad principles of law
and so contribute valuable prece-
cedent that at some other future time
may be serviceable to other states.
Decisions upon Maryland's .consti-
tutional questions have served such
wide purposes Observation-Disclosures Her.
