THE SULTAN 4TINDIcATIoN."

The Hon. William J. Bryan is a political
mOralst. The Hon. Roger C. Sullivan is
political humOrist. HumOr and morals do not
always mix, and in the hand-tO-hand encounter
just concluded in Illinois the humOrist seems
10 have triumphed and the mOrast seems to
have been wOrsted. Mr.. Sulivan's idea Of
humOr in politics is to profess one thing and
practise another He is not worried over petty
inconsistencies between logic and conduct. and
can smile indulgently at the ingenuOusness of
critics who insist squaring words with deeds
and backing up opinions by action AS is well
known. Colonel Bryan and MIR. Sullivan differ
about little matter Of malversatiOn. Colonel
Bryan holds that Mr.. Sullivan is a receiver of
stolen gOOds-that his title as a member OF
the Democratic National Committee is tainted
Mr.. Sullivan asserts, Oh the contrary, that the
title in dispute is technically fawless. and that,
though he may have prOfted to some extent
by the "hold-up' engineered by the "reOrgan-
izers" at Springfield two years ago, all defects
and irregularities in his commission were
cured when the Democratic National Conven.
ton seated the delegation which elected him.
Colonel Bryan was convinced-as any disinter.
ested student of the record will be convinced
that the Illinois State Convention of 1904 was
controlled by trickery and violence. and at
St Louis he made a passionate but unsuccess
full appeal TO the conservative" majority not
exhibition OF political larceny.
The Nebraska leader was in apogee then, and
his protests were fruitless. Now that he has
been rediscovered and rehaIoized. he has set
about undong the outrage committed at ST.
Louis. He has publicly called on Mr.. Sullivan
TO resign and has announced that he does not
care for the support or Endorsement of state
willing 10 tolerate a receiver of stolen goods
81. its representative on the national commit
tee Logic and self-respect should have COM
pelled the Illinois Democrats TO face the issue
raised by Colonel Bryan. But the Peoria con-
vention pusillanimOusly lodged IT, A facing
both-yyays policy was decided on, and the Illi-
nois Democracy elected TO try 10 carry Bryan
on one shoulder and Sullivan on the other just
as the Democracy is trying here TO balance
Jerome against Hearst. and in Massachusetts
10 balance Moran against Whitney.
Mr.. Sullvan's friends easily controlled the
state convention. Yet, as we have said. Mr.
Sullivan is a humOrist and he cheerfully in
structed his followers 10 pass a resolution I'm
which the man who called him n receiver OF
stolen goods and denounced him as unfit to
associate with honest Democrats was lauded
as ..fittest to lead in the fight TO rescue our
government from the hands of special inter-
..ests and restore IL 10 all the people" Said Mr.
Sullivan through his committee on resolutions:

vB. ROOTS VISIT TO Chilli.

Tracing in reverse the historic course OF the
Oregon, the Secretary of State has now left
Argentina for Chill. To this stage OF his prog
ress a peculiar interest is attached Those TWO
southernmost republics of the continent, lying
side by side and enjoying intimate social anu
commercial relationships while topographcaly
strongly contrasted, have in many respects been
much alike. Each has been likened TO our own
country Argentina being called the United
States of South America, and the people of Chilli
because of their energy, enterprise and progress
being called the Yankees of South America
phrases which are glad TO recognize as COM
pIimentary TO us, as well as TO them. Ihe great
cities of each have been marked with culture
and an opulent splendor comparable with those
of any of the worlds capitals, and degree OF
civic stability and integrity has been attained by
both, emitting them TO assured places among the
important powers of the world.
In such a happy condition and amid joyous
antlcipations of the coming celebration of her
centenary Mr.. Root leaves Argentina. week
ago he would have found Chill in a like pros
porous condition. AS it is. he will find the west
ern republic in mourning, her palaces laid waste,
her marts OF commerce desOIated, her people
stricken with losses, wounds and DEATH through
such calamity as seldom comes to any land,
though such as we ourselves have recently suf-
fered The contrast between BuenOs Ayres and
Valparaiso will be striking and distressful. 1t
may be that these unhappy conditions will cause
a change of plans. house Of mourning is not
a house Of entertainment That, however, will
doubtless be as the ChlianS themselves wish
and prescribe.
Mr.. Roots visit to Chilli will be accomplished
under widely different circumstances from those
which were a few days ago expected. But it
will be no less interesting TO both nations, it,
indeed, it does not lead to closer relations and
a stronger bond of friendship than could have
been fOreseen IT will be Mr.. Roots privilege TO
bear in person a message Of heartfelt sympathy
and TO receive the confident assurance that Chill
is supporting her misfortune with no less fOrti-
tude and recuperative energy than our own peO-
pie have displayed in the face of a similar dis

PREPARING FOE CHEAP ALCOHOL

The United States Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, who has just returned from Europe,
declares that denatured alcohol shas not yet
supplanted gasOlene there The only autOmO-
biles which were propelled by spirits, so far
his observation went, were in Germany.
Nevertheless, he appears to be confident that
in time this country will be in q position 10
teach the world good deal about the pOssi-
BILE uses of alcohol.
The cautious tone which Mr.. YerkeS adopts
in discussing this matter is to be commended.
American ingenuity and energy justify the ex-
pectatiOn that after a few years the United
States will afford an example TO other cOun-
tries which will be extremely influential but
it would be a mistake to look for sudden and
vast revolution in the immediate future. One
reason for entertaining modest hopes at the
outset is that the utilization of alcohol abroad
has not yet taken place on a great scale An
other and more important consideration is that
no one can now say anything definite about the
prices which will prevail here during the first
few months after the new law has gone into
effect. When once il is evident-as we believe
il will be in the course of year or twO-that
alcohol can compete on even terms with gaso-
lene, there should be a large demand for it,
but no one to-day can supply market quota
tiOns for next January
Again, something besides low prices will be
found TO be essential to an extensive indus
trial use of alcohol Many of those who will
be benefited by the new resource which is to
be put at their disposal have something still
to learn about ii. THE Industrial World" COM
mented at length a few weeks ago on the fact
that the Llrer the alcohol the lower the tenn
perature at which it will vapOriZe and explode
in the cylinder OF a gas engine. That periOdi-
cal pointed out that a novice might get disap-
pointing results with a low grade of fluid,
whereas a better quality would give him pre-
cisely the service he desired. This is only one
instance among number which might be cited
10 show that consumers must study how TO
make the most of their coveted opportunities.
Finally. it is probable that the manufacturers
of certain classes of machinery, notably gas
engines, will find it desirable TO make some
notifications in their products TO insure the
highest efficiency with alcohol. Very likely they
are studying the question now, but until they
announce the outcome of their investigations
prudent persons will hesitate TO make pur-
chaseS,

THE CTBAV TROTBLES.

The troubles in Cuba appear 70 be increasing
in severity. They do not yet amount TO any
thing like civil war, and IL is not TO be antici-
pated that they will. But they do amount TO a
serious insurrectiOn. in which there seems TO be
a combination Of professional brigands In quest
OF loot. of disappointed Ohiceseekers striving to
win by force what they failed TO get by lawful
means, and of those professional revOlutiOnists
10 whom periodical uprisings are the very
breath of life. That the people OF Cuba or any
considerable portion Of them are behind the
movement or sympathiZe with il does not ap-
pear. But in so mercurial a country and one so
long accustomed to insurrectiOnary movements
almost anything may happen. Wherefore it is
earnestly TO Ice hoped that the insular govern
ment will promptly put forth strong hand and
atone for being caught mapping by suppressing
the revolt in a thorough manner.
There is no ground for sympathy in this cOun-
try with the insurgents, for there is not the
slightest evidence Of moral or civic principle in
their campaign or of cause for their uprising
other than OF the most selfish and sordid de-
scriptiOn If we grant that the major motive
is not larcenOus. but political. even then We
must regard il as aiming at the overthrow Of
a government which has done uncommonIy we'll
and which deserves uncommOnly well OF Cuba
and at replacing il with a government Of untried
and unknown qualities. but which. however Writ
advance by the lawless manner OF its accession
Upon such an achievement this nation and the
world would look with decided suspicion and
cisfavOr. and upon what we must regard as
futile attempt at il they look with strong repro
baton
II is, OF course, 20 be borne in mind, and en-
firely without offence. that many OF our Latin
American friends are revolutionists by heredity
and tradition and training and are naturally
prone 10 rise as sparks are 10 fly upward In
view OF their antecedents. the chief wonder is
that they do not more frequently manifest their
insurgent tendencies. and we must regard them
as entitled to commendation and congratulation
on the expedition with which they have so
largely transformed their dispositions. It is
also gratifying and encouraging TO observe
that the relationship Of the United States 70
those countries is exceedingly influential for
the maintenance of peace and order. We do not
mean that fear OF this country is, like the fear
OF he'll, "a hangmans whip, 10 keep the world
n order" But far more agreeable 20 note

chases.

Fully two months have elapsed since the Duke
of the Abruzzi won his freshest laurels as an
explorer, but only within a few days has a
detailed account Of his achievements in Central
Africa become available for scrutiny. Hence it
is now possible for the first time to dispel several
uncertainties which have existed since the sue
cess of the italian was briefly announced by
cable.
Geographers will be glad TO learn that the
height of the loftiest peak in the Ruwenzori
range is determined beyond doubt by barO-
metric measurement, and is no longer a matter
of euesswork, however shrewd. This summit
which In honor Of the Queen Dowager of Italy
has been named Margherita. rises TO an ele
vation Of 1920 feet. and is therefore, one hun
dred feet higher than Mount st. Elias. which
the Duke OF the AbruzZi assembled in 1897. The
difficulties Of mountain climbing are not, OF
course exactly proportonate TO height above
sea level but ION the face of the returns the
performance Of nine years ago has now been
surpassed.
II was reported last spring that three men
connected with the South KensingtOn Museum
in London had anticipated the Italian prince In
the conquest Of RuwenzOri The statement had
an element Of truth in it, but was not altogether
correct The particular peak the top Of which
they attained (Kiyanja) Is, according 70 their
own account only 163I9 feet high The Eng
lshmen also say that until the last moment they
believed they were attacking the lOftiest noun
