British Public Declare Aim of

PRoTEcTIoNIsTS ri RABID
WiLHELM's RECOGNITION OF
MADRiZ TAKEN TO MEAN THAT
GERMANY INTENDS TO SECURE
NIcARACUAN CANAL SITE.

London, July 13.-The tension be-
tween Germany and Great Britain has
been materially increased as the re-
suit of the Madriz incident and today
is more acute than it has been since
the height Of the wal scare in Eng
land. The fact that a British news
paper gave out the statement purport.
ing to come from the German foreign
Office in which Americas diplomatic
rights in Central America were nout.
ed, has changed the center of interes.
over the incident from Washington
to London. The advocates of greater
| protection for England are already
making much of the prominence given
Germany's alleged desire to secure o
coaling station in America. declar-
ing that such promise of naval expan'
sion is a menace to England.
Explanations and denials have furth
er clouded the affair and the question
| why did the Kaiser recognize Madriz
as president Of Nicaragua when the
United States. most concerned in the
situation, had taken no action on his
case?
The affair has served to relieve the
report, current at the time of the de
position Of ex-President Zelaya, that
Germany seeks to secure the Nicara
guam canal route, and had arranged
with Zelaya for such rights. Zelaya ii
here regarded as the hacker of Mad
riz. These fresh rumor of a gigantic
struggle over the canal route that was
the great rival of the Panama route
have only brought forth denials, how
ever in Germany.
The official inclination is now t.
ignore the affair as far as possible, &C
cepting the view that the Kaiser's not,
to Madriz, sent on April rs, was
mere bit of formality. Nevertheless
it cannot be gainsaid hat the rela
tons between the three powers involv
ed have been given a keener edge thai
they have had in a long time.

Motion Pictures

While Indianapolis is having Mysteries yer the motion pictures of
the Reno fight 1t is noticeable that without any agitation IN anyones
part the motion picture people in Richmond have announced that there
will be no display Of the pictures here.
The truth Is that the motion picture business is which depends
for its trade from the family.
The institution las beer u o a very high plane as a rule-because
the people demand it.
1t is far better that the absence of fight pictures should come in this
way than It should be the result Of agitation. AS we look at it it is
not the pictures half s. much as 1t is the agitation that makes the
trouble
Mayor Shank of Indianapolis, being a full blooded man, did not see
anything in the "a of motion pictures of the fight. Recent develop
ments show that the people Of Indianapois-some Of them-are emotion
al enough to be stirred up over the still life" reproductions of the fight
Hence the lid may 90 n.
Its a lot better not to get excited about anything this hot weather.

Oyster Bay, July 13.- Theodore

the first time since his return to Am

New York state campaign, he said:

sp~onsibility For Much crims-An

A Massachusetts judge in passing
sentence upon some Juvenile vioiators
Of the law took occasion TO say thai
the trades unions were responsible for
much OF such crime because they pre-
vented young men from learning use
full trades and this forced them into
lives OF idleness and crime.
1t is probable that the ends of jus
tice would have been fully served had

but he felt inspired tD to make m ac-
cusation against workingmen without
according them any of the common
rights Of defendants.
When a judge will thus so out Of his
way to throw a brick at labor and thus
display his animosity. what hope Is
there that labor can expect any fair
ness from him In ase any trial tn
volving the rights Of labor should be
held in his court?
And this was o all.
certain IaDOr men questioned
the correctness Of his statement and
asked for proof the Judge replied:
II have made my statement. It Is
for you to disprove it."
Now, as we understand 1t. this an
swer Is so directly subversiye or con
trary to all judicial practice as to
amount to judicial acrobatics.
We believe the usual practice in the
courts is FIRST to charges defendant
with crime and next to prove him
guilty.
About all the defense has to do Is t
successfully rebut or offset the evi
dence Of the prosecution.
And there IL a presumption Of limo
cence Of the defendant which must b<
overcome beyond a reasonable doubt
In his unwarranted dispersion upor
the labor movement the Judge hereir
referred to reverses the rule Of evi
dence in holding that the accused mus
prove innocence and wipes out the pre-
sumption Of innocence entirely.

Records In Aviation.
PHILADELPHIA Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
So recent is the development of
flight by heavier-than-air machines
that aviation may be said to be a mat
ter Of the present and the future. The
biplane and the m~onoplane are things
OF today. The k~een-eyed, courageous
men who drive them are developing
toward a working basis a dream OF
yesterday. What may be the ultimate
service of the flying machine is yet a
matter of conjecture, but not longer
can the machine be regarded as a toy
or it's operator a reckless experimenter
with no more purpose than the
achievement OF a new sensation.
