HOW TO BE A DIPLO-
MAT TO BE TAUGHT
LIKE ANY OTHER
PROFESSION. ~ y

EW1 HERE is a new learned pro-
fession" in America. 1t is the
Y profession of diplomacy. The
youth to whom the consular
or diplomatic service appeals may
matriculate now in college specially
organized to teach him the things he
should know in the practice of that
profession or at any rate to give him a
ground plan introduction to his life
work This Is something new under
the sun in the western world.
There is but one institution in the
United States where the requirements
OK the profession of diplomacy are
taught That is the College of the Pc
litical Sciences. in connection with the
enlarged George Washington univer-
sity at Washington. The chief pur
pose of this college is to prepare young
men for the foreign consular service
Of the United States. The projectors
hope in time to create a new standard
OF excellence in this highly important
branch of the public service, To this
end an earnest effort is being made
Just now toward securing an adequate
endowment for the college.
The Rev DR. Richard ID. Harlan,
son of Justice Harlan of the supreme
court, has been appointed director of
"the George Washington university
movement" The purpose of this
movement is to develop the university
along certain special lines OF graduate
work, for which there are such eX-
ceptionable facilities to be found at

ilcular work for the present relates to

Is tribute to the wisdom and fore

W. IL. Taft was then made the unan-
imous choice of the convention. Mr..
Taft was enabled to make winning
campaign because he was the choice of
President Roosevelt; that he was secre-
tary of war; that he has been holding
federal and other prominent public
offices since 1881; and for the further
fact that he had all the money at his
command necessary for making an
aggressive fight. His brother, Charles
Taft, is computed to be worth all the
way from $50, 900, 900 to S45, 900, 900.
The favorite sons all came in for a
jollying, but further than getting the
vote of their respective states were not
in the race for a moment
The platform was shown clearly the
handiwork of President Roosevelt and
contains all he asked for. 1t pledges a
continuance of Roosevelt's policies and
gives the president unstinted praise
and places him in the class with Wash
ington and Lincoln; it contains an anti
injunction plank which is perfectly
meaningless and is intended as an at
tempt to become friendly with the labor
element of the country; it declares for
revision of the tariff by special SEES
sion of congress; approved of the cur
rency bill recently passed by congress,
touched upon the trusts, inland water;
ways, good roads, the negro, etc.
The platform said nothing about re-
curing publicity on campaign contri-
buttons. Congressman Cooper had this
and many other vital questions SUBJ
mitted to the convention but all were
voted down. The best speeches made in
the convention, so it is reported, were
delivered by delegates from Wisconsin
One thing was very apparent at this
convention and that was that the repub-
lican party is far from being harmoni-

RepublIcan National Convention.


The republican national convention
held in Chicago the past week, from
Tuesday until Friday, resulted in just
what was expected, in so far as placing
In nomination candidate for the presi-
dencv. Secretary Taft and his admir-
ers had been preparing for the conven-
ton for several years, and even before
the date thereof, he had the nee
essary number of delegates pledged
to enable him to get the nomination on
the first ballot. Senator Burrows was
temporary chairman and Henry Cabot
Lodge, permanent chairman. There
was no great enthusiasm, except when
Theodore Roosevelt's name was men
toned. then there was cheering and a
wild time generally, for about forty min
utes.
The lack of enthusiasm for Taft and
Sherman was perhaps owing to the fact
that everything was cut and dried be-
fore the convention assembled. Eom-
ination speeches were made as follows:
For Joseph Canon, by Boutelle.

Telegraph TO Theodore.

If the ship of state needs caulking
Or the lions head twist;
If the senators are baking;
If silver spoon is missed
If there's a plague in Honolulu;
If there's trouble in the cup,
Why, just write to Mr.. Roosevelt,
And he'll fix the matter up.
If they lynch a coon in Texas
If the green bugs in the wheat;
If there's anything to vex us;
If you're troubled with cold feet;
If your dinner isn't ready,
Or you're feeling rather dry;
Send a telegram to Teddy,
And you'll get hot reply.
If there's too much rain in Kansas,
Or it's dry in Tennessee
If summer cyclone fans US,
Or If Towser has flea
Ii your sweetheart proves tickle;
If you want to know the score;
If you get punctured nickel,
Drop line to Theodore.
If you need another member
Of the Ananias club;
If you're sunstruck in December;
Or you're suffering for grub;
Or the beef trust gets too gay;
Ring up Roosevelt on the wire,
And there'll be the deuce to pay.
If he stork don't visit Alice;
If we lose to the Maroons
If Ben Tillman's full of malice,
Or Maria's full of prunes;
If the troops shoot up city,
Or you cannot pay your rent
Take lesson from this ditty;
Write to Roosevelt, president.
If there's scandal in Peoria;
Or the city's filled with graft;
Or If Storer tells mis- story;
Or they're knockin on Bill Taft;
If panic hits the nation;
Or they loose the dogs of war
Or If God eeds a vacation,
Let him trust iR Theodore.
