The Dutch Minister'S O6ense.

The claim is made by officials in Vene-
zuela that President Castro was entirely
justified in dismissing NJ. de Reus the
Dutch minister. from Caracas. The presi-
dent. IL appears. is quoting such instances
as the action of the United States in 1858
in requesting Great Britain to recall Lord
Sackville- West for writing a letter COM
menting upon the political conditions in
this country and advising a former Eng
lish subject how to vote also the similar
demand made by the United States ten
years later upon Spain for the recall Of
Seno: de LONE for writing a letter criti-
cising this government NJ. de Reus' Of

ing letter to society In Amsterdam
composed OF prominent Holland mer-
chants organized with the object of Sc
curing employment in foreign countries
for young Hollanders. This society had
written to the Dutch minister at Vene-
zuela with others asking his advice and
asking his cooperation in this enterprise,
and he replied advising against sending
young Dutchmen into Venezuela because
of the deplorable political and social con-
ditiens there. Had he confined himself
strictly to answering the inquiry Of his
correspondents without chaIacterizing the
Internal administration Of Venezuela

Union Labor.

Judge Taft received a union card while
in Cincinnati the other day. and now Mr.
Bryan has been similarly honored. Union
labor is not in anybody's vest pocket. 1t
does its own thinking and It's own voting,
Sad would be the day for 1t II 1t were a
mere pawn In a political game. Whether
there are more democrats than repub-
licans in the ranks of union labor Is a
question. A reliable census could not we'll
be taken. But whatever the division may
be- We may expect to see it manifested In
normal form this year. There has been
no more creditable exhibition by wage
earners than the prompt protest every
where against the charge that they have

least no valid ground for his dismissal
Unfortunately-or possibly it may be for
tunateiy-he spoke Of the President Of
Venezuela in terms that might be con-
strued. as sighting. Following is his Ian
guage In those parts of his letter which
are criticised by the government at Ca
racas:
referring to your letter of the oath Of
February. 1 am sorry to inform you that
the present time Is anything but favorable
for business The system of government
tatorial ruling president. which is econom-
ically for the creation and afterward al
ways for the annulment Of monopolies,
through all kinds Of subletieo. has very
nearly ruined the country:
The revival of commercial trade is also
impossible as long as the present govern
ment rules the country. for 1t cannot be
expected that the present president. after
the nine years during which he has
reigned. almost as a dictator, will change
his system of governing and his domestic
and foreign policy"
1t will be noted that NJ de Reus speaAs
of Castro as almost dictatorial." and
again as almost dictator" The ques-
ton now arises whether 1t is contrary to
the laws Of nations and to the rules Of
international ethics to call the rulers Of
the entertaining countries by near-names.
The most patent fact today in the record
OF Venezuela in its relations to the world
is that Castro is the closest approach t
a. dictator that any modern so-called re-
public has produced. The question now
before the world is whether the Dutch
minister has actually offended by report
ing to his correspondents privately in
terms exactly describing the conditions
existing in Venezuela
1t is supposed to be the business of for
eign ministers and ambassadors to keep
their countrymen and governments in
formed of conditions abroad But they
take risk in writing letters especially
of non-ofacial character. 1t is more
than coincidence that all three of the
cases now in view of letter-writing dip
lomats who have come to grief turn upon
communications addressed to private par
ties outside of the line of official diplo-
matte correspondence.

If Washington is to be visited with any
more such fires as that Of today at the
corner Of 10th and e streets the most
urgent need Of the local fire department
will be an equipment of pitchforks and
rakes. 1t was obvious to any onlooker
when the hay wagon was all lit up that
the fire laddies at the capital, brave as
they are in the face Of danger, are in sad
need OF training In the hay field. Pos
sibly their awkwardness in unloading the

implements. The pikehook does not make

Criminal Neglect.

At Bogota, N. j.. last evening an auto
mobile heading for New York carrying
six people sped down a grade to a steam
railroad crossing. and wher on the track
was struck by a train. One man was
killed. and all the other occupants of the
car were more or less seriously injured,
some probably fatally. The crossing was
equipped with no lights or gates or other
forms of protective appliances. and the
approach to the track was thanked by
buildings to shut of the view of approach
ing trains 1t was. in short. an ideal death
trap. In one Of the New ork paper re-
ports Of the tragedy occurs the following
paragraph:
THE crossing a. BOgota. where the fatal
accident occurred, has long been known
one of the most dangerous in that
section
Here, again. is an instance of the grade
crossing we'll known as dangerous and
neglected by railroad and state authori-
ties until death occurs to demonstrate its
character as a menace to life. The list
OF such cases is criminally long A few
decades ago grade crossings could be here
and there tolerated as a necessary evil
OF slight significance. But that time has
passed long ago. The railroad that MAIN
rains or the state that permits a railroad
to maintain a grade crossing at any point
on sthe line in these days of thick settle
ment and frequent road use by the public
is assuming a responsibility of the grav-
est character, which should be expressed
in terms of criminal prosecution when
death occurs at that point
The rural grade crossing is more in evil
dence today in the tragedy reports than
the urban crossing was formerly. This
is because Of the great increase in auto:
MODELLING. There is scarcely a country
road anywhere within a radius of hun
dred miles of large city which Is not
daily used by motor cars. The result Is
that automobiling parties are being struck
by trains with frequency that should
shock state legislators and railroad au-
thorities into prompt curative action.

Mr.. Watterson's Keynote.

Asked in New York yesterday for his
views Of Mr. Bryans chances MIR. Wat
terson replied:
1T is much too early in the campaign
to make predictions. l am not the one
to make them anyway. AS always l am
in this fight to win. and as always. l ex-
pect to win"
This is good philosophy, and as ap-
plicable to one side as the other. 1t Is
altogether too soon for predictions. OBJ
servers whose views are of value have
not yet digested the situation. The cock
sure individual at this time is he who
mistakes the prattle around his home
tavern for the decision of the country.
He sees Taft or Bryan as his cronies do.
His vision and information extend but
little beyond Podunk or Shady Grove.
This is the time for work. Men of
value In the equation want to win and
hope to win. They are putting their
souls into their activities. What if Taft
is handicapped by republican divisions
here. there and yonder? All the harder
should republicans not responsible for or
involved in those divisions try to close
them. What If Bryan is handicapped by
democratic divisions? Democrats who
have accepted his candidacy should be
spurred by the situation to do their best.
The difficulty on the democratic side Is
the wealth of democratic authority avail
able for republican use that Mr.. Bryan
cannot be elected. Democratic leaders
and democratic newspapers are on record
as despairing of success under his guild
ance. They gave the party away in their
strenuous efforts to prevent Mr.. Bryan's
nomination. They carried their criticism
of him prior to the Denver convention to
the limit. The result now is their great
embarrassment. Mr.. Bryan. against their
almost frenzied protest, is the candidate,
and they must support him.
The corner is sharp. and not every
man or every newspaper can turn 1t we'll
Mr.. Watterson himself is among those
who have had to turn 1t, but even he has
10und II difficult. All he has said against
Mr.. Bryan is serviceable for the opposi-
ton. and some of 1t Is of comparatively
recent date. During his advocacy Of Gov.
Johnson he gave some f1fty-seven reasons
why Mr.. Bryan's nomination would
resemble q milestone much more closely
than a pair of wings.
Nevertheless, q conversion-the real
thing-once made should go These
anti-Bryan men. now pro-Bryan by q
decree of fate, should keep on keepin'
on" But their line should be work and
hope. Predictions of success are not for
them.

Concerning Tar and Acid.

Notwithstanding the drop in temperature
which Washingtonians have been enjoy
ing for nearly a fortnight the summer s
influences seem to have affected some
members of the community rather un-
fortunately. This Is the time of year
when students of ARCHAEOLOGICAL con-
ditions look for abnormalities Of tempera-
ment. There is some strange influence In
the suns rays that upsets the usual lines
of thought and conduct. Recently two in
stances of this sort of thing have come
to view. In one case a group of men al
lowed their anger to go to the extent of
applying coat of liquid tar to another
who had given them cause of irritation.
but who might possibly have been reached
by less drastic means and quite as effect
lively for the punishment of any offenses
he had really committed against the So
cial. moral or statutory laws. The tarring
case rather seriously shocked the commu-
nifty. and it had hardly recovered it's equi-
librium when it was treated to another
sensation. A woman became so angry at
her half-brother because he annoyed her
that she chased him into the street and
threw acid into his face. Had she con-
fined her attentions to the object of her
so bad. But anybody who has tried to
throw liquid out of bottle at a target
knows how difficult it is to be accurate
of aim. Consequently some part of the
corrosive substance fell upon a child and
burned her severely.
These crudities of temper are to be
seriously deplored. Fortunately in the
two instances the brainstorms have not
{v, ItcQr
urement. but they have nevertheless DEM
onstrated the danger which is run by any
person who allows the angry passions to
rise beyond control. In the acid-throwing
case the woman has since remarked that
her only regret was that she had not a
pistol in her hand when she went after
the object of her wrath. Just here is
where the advocate OF a more stringent
pistol regulation system finds his strong
est argument. In the present state of
affairs 1t is possible for any embittered,
imprisoned person to procure weapon
with very little difficulty and at slight ex-
pense The result is that murders are
committed constantly in blazes Of rage
which would never occur were the procure
ment of a deadly weapon more difficult.
At the same time, even though these late
happenings have not caused tragedies,
they are to be placed in the class Of I'M
desirable incidents. Washington Is q CEN
ter of interest in many respects. but in
the main 1t is the source of a wholesome,
constructive line of news, and It has no
desire to figure as a scene of freak hap
penings or extraordinary crimes. Its chief
ambition is to be rated as a peaceable,
we'll behaved, decent community
