M. Delcasse.

We probably get the correct idea of NJ.
DelCasse in the description that he is the
John Hay of France. He has shown an
unusual capacity for diplomacy. and ham
died several difficult pieces of business most
successfully. His experience has been &
little more trying than that of Mr.. Hay.
in that the French government has sew
cral times changed since he took the helm
of foreign affairs. whereas. in effect, Mr.
Hay has had but one chief. So far our
State Department is concerned. the tragedy
at Buffalo made no mark. If We may ex
cept the Santo Domingo business-and that
only in the original form-our foreign af-
fairs since Mr.. Roosevelt entered the White
House have been conducted about as they
would have been if Mr. Mckinley had re-
manned there. Mr. Hay has been potent
liz the State Department from the day of
his appearance there.
The French are great actors. and know
the value of stage play. 1t may be that it
not difficult as appeared on the face
of things to persuade NJ Delcasse to with
draw his resignation. The premier held
but one conference with him, and Presi-
dent Loubet saw him but for half an hour
There is the suggestion of stage wrestle
with the foreign minister slated to fall.
If it was maneuver it succeeded. M
Delcasse not only obtained his vote of con-
fdence at home. but drew forth many COM
pHments from abroad The foreign press,
excepting only the German press, bestowed
much praise upon him, and agreed that ne
should remain at his post. Morocco was
not so much in view Manchuria and no
man in France was in sight who might be
considered so well qualified to assist in the
settlement of the eastern question after the
war as NJ. Delcasse.
Delicate from the first, Frances position
now in the Russo-Japanese matter is ex-
tremely delicate. 1t very properly causes
great uneasiness to hear the eXplanati
that France has never adopted the twenty
four-hour limit for the tarrying of war
fleet within her harbors. How long then?
Undoubtedly the Russians have benefited
by their stay at kamranh bay. and are
the stronger because of the reception there.
II they can continue to run into a sO-called
neutral port here and there, and fill their
bunkers in smooth waters and make re-
pairs while at safe anchor, they will be
much to the good.
With NJ. Delcasse in Office Japan will be
dealing with a who knows the whole
story of the war. France is concerned,
from inside information; and the expert
enced and informed man is the one for this
emergency for everybody in interest.

described in recent issues of The Sunday
Star. is Of greater Importance than may be
measured by the mere visible artistic re-
suits. 1t was impossible to read the reports
of school principals printed in yesterday
issue telling of their experiences with the
little gardeners, without realizing that
factor for the true culture of the younger
citizens of the capital had developed into
effective activity.
The work of the teachers themselves in
thus fostering the school garden movement
is worthy of high praise. They were already
overburdened with tasks and responsible
ties when they were asked by their supe-
riors to start the youngsters to digging and
planting. Many of them groaned in spirit
at the prospect Today the general verdict
from these hard-working, enthusiastic,
earnest men and women is that the added
task has been a pleasure and a help to
them as teachers and an inspiration to
their charges. In reality it is the teacher
who makes this work interesting and in
spring to the pupil. 1t speaks well for the
tact and skill of the public school instruc-
tors of the capital that they have wrought
the results that are in evidence in the
school yards and are being so Interestingly
described in the course of the series of re-
ports now in course of publication.
In this work the teachers need and de-
serve the cooperation of the parents as
well as the authorities. The great majority
of parents doubtless appreciate the value
of the school garden as an elevating infiu-
ence in the life of the child Others will
assuredly come to ackr owledge that this is
a branch of instruction which, having been
long neglected in Washington. should now
be heartily Endorsed and generously sup
ported.

the freedom of a great empire like this
would certainly have stirred him again.
Some years earlier still, Robert Burns
thought of embarking for the West Indies,
and maybe America. Suppose he had come.
Should we have had the songs from him
here that he afterward gave to the world
from Scotland? Some of his most exquisite
productions post date that period. America
might not have inspired his muse although
it is difficult to think of him anywhere free
from it's spell.
And at a much earlier day than that
Oliver Cromwell thought of becoming a
colonist. Would America have developed
any portion Of his genius? And would he
have shaped America in accordance with it?
Idle speculation all. But that we have
missed some very interesting men in draw
ing on the old countries is a fact
