There is perhaps some exaggeration, but
rather pardonable exaggeration, in the ex-
IRENE laudation that is pouring upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt from all quarters Of the
world for the part he is considered to have
taken in the contamination Of peace. There
is entire agreement, apparently, among both
public officials and private citizens of the
utmost distinction in all the leading countries
that he is the man to whom is principally to
be credited the gratifying result that has
been reached, if not that without his inter-
vention peace would have been impossible.
This gives Mr. Roosevelt distinction per-
haps without parallel in history, and fully
warrants the suggestion that the next Nobel
peace prize should be given TO him. Be-
fore this honor can be conferred however,
there will be needed an official statement of
exactly what the president really did in the
matter-a point upon which we are yet quite
In darkness, and darkness that is, to say

CONCLUSION or PEACE

The peace agreement concluded by the Rus
sian and Japanese ENJOYS has been the MAR
topic of editorial comment during the past week
It furnishes food for wide variety of opinions
but the writer's unite in paying tribute to the
efforts OF President Roosevelt:
The terms of peace contain nothing which
Is humiiating to either belligerent. Russia
has lost much-its navy, Manchuria, Port
Arthur, the Chinese Eastern railway, and its
prestige in the orent-but has saved its
honor" Japan has gained much and has
saved its honor" 1t has not been humiliat-
ed as it was after the conclusion Of the
Chinese war, when the European nations
compelled it to give up Port Arthur. Each
nation will be free now, thanks in part to
the generous efforts of President Roosevelt
to devote itself to the arts of peace. A year
more of fighting would have exhausted both
financially, and an irredeemable paper cur
rency would have taken the place of gold in
both empires They have escaped that
danger. The Russian government can de-
vote itself to the restoration OF internal peace
and that Of Japan to the restoration of do
nestle industry and the exploitation of Corea.
Each has been much worn down by war
and is in such need Of rest that they are like
~ to remain at peace for many years-Chi-
cago Tribune.
