most particularly to Pensacola and

The bill provides means for pre-

this purpose would adopt means Of

marked the other night at a dinner.
Diplomats talk most when they go
wrong" he certainly said a wise and
veracious thing, although it was not
original.
The Pittsburg Post declares, very
justly, that the baron's remark might
be reversed and made to read:
Things go wrong when diplomats
talk most" and commenting on the
matter continues as follows:
II the diplomatic branch of most of
the governments of the world, those
of Europe especially, and those of
our own country not, perhaps, ex-
cepted, could be abolished, OF sill
enced, the peace of the world would
be immeasurably advanced. Diplo-
matte service usually represents the
political and ruling social and court
castles rather than the Drawn and
sinew of the nations, the people who
pay the taxes and fight the battles
that diplomacy often nec1leSSly
brings on. With the modern greater
ease Of communication, with the speed
and secrecy with which information
can be transmitted, with the inter
change of ideas and peoples which is
going on all over the world, the need
for the old-fangled, pompous repre-
sentative of his sovereign at the-court
Of every other is past.
And these "old fashioned, pompous
representatives of sovereigns" were
always the greatest of menaces to the
tranquility and happiness, both of the
people they represented and those on
whom they were imposed. Their one
purpose was to show their best jiplO-
matte stunts and to outwit all the
other "oId-fashioned, pompous repre-
sentatives of soVereigns" with whom
they came in contact. They did this.
| moreover, Just for exercise, for the
! fun OF it; and no doubt rubbed thei:
hands with glee when they succeed
ed in embroiling two nations in a
bloody war, whereby their own might
! profit

ranks in diplomatic history with
MachiavelH Kaunitz, Fox or the very
best of the crowd, let the cat out
/ OF the OaS NuCu uS USSldASU, Adll-
guage is intended OF conceal
thoughts" which goes. to show that
Idiplomatists are constitutional liars,
if the Japs are not-and one can
scarcely believe the latter are after
Takahira's sober declaration.
1t may be put down as fact that
the modern breed inherits to a large
extent the characteristics of their
predecessors. Their self-importance
| is Just as great, their cumulative spir-
liz Just as strong, their planning and
scheming just as underhand and their
disregard of the people only slightly
tempered by the universal spread OF

In truth, diplomatic correspondence
should be open and above board. Sc
effectiveness is ever the source of
tragic denouement It's mystery
arouses suspicion and suspicion is
the chief cause of unfriendly feeling
As the Post concludes, the day
when the service of the "old-fangIed,
Ipompous representatives of sOver-
eigns," was of any benefit has passed,
if indeed, it ever existed, sld the
business affairs between nations
should be carried on with less com
