Death of King Edward.

Ii was a bolt from the blue. The news
of King Edwards death came While the
world was still considering the starting
news of his illness, and hoping that 1t
might pass He had returned from the
continent in fair condition. and takef,
business with his usual interest. On
wis side the latest advices were that he
'RaS making his preparations TO entertain
NJ. Roosevelt. and showing much pleas
l,re in the arrangements. Then came the
announcement that he was disabled, and
then the announcement of his death
In a way, the end was fortunate A
long siege jim bed-a slow approach to
deatil-would have been hard for such a
man to bear. He had enjoyed life so
much it would have tried his courage and
patience to be obliged to give it up by
degrees. 1t was better for him that it be
snatched swiftly.
It will be better. too, for the country.
With the king on his back for months
everybody now hoping and now despair
ing-the political situation might have be-
come far graver than it is today. So
much would have depended on the king,
and yet the king In no condition for ac-
ton. ANY temporary provision would
have had dangers and drawbacks.
But. coming swiftly, death has come
mercifully. The king is spared suffering,
and the country greater doubt and I'M
rest. The old Cry is call to duty. 'The
king is dead; long live the king" The
father departs. the son takes his place.
The country at once faces a new situa-
tion. and must rise to it.
II the new king is comparatively young
and untried, he has the greater claim
upon his subjects because OF that fact
Partisan strife should, and may. abate In
bitterness for a time. He is a man OF
good purposes and clean life an English
man through and through. and his peo-
pie should see that he has a good start
and a square deal. Liberal and conserva-
tive alike should lend q hand toward
making the path OF SO worthy a ruler
free OF pitfalls at his setting out.
The reported last words OF King Ed
ward show both serenity Of spirit and
the proper thought in his supreme mo-
ment He was sustained by the feeling
that he had tried to do his duty. He
was entitled to the feeling, too-and
maybe he enjoyed it-that the world had
given him its approval. He had had
abundant assurance Of the worlds good
Will, and even admiration His efforts
fer peace had been widely recognized
snd applauded, and he stood acclaimed
everywhere as his country's greatest
living diplomat. He was giving up enor-
nous power, but was going to sleep with
the satisfaction Of having used it we'll,
for his own people and for all mankind.

Taft and Roosevelt.

Winston Churchill has written some
clever stories Of American life, and may
be his only claim to notice is based upon
them. But he has made a shy at politics,
too, and asks consideration on that score.
He is on his way home from a foreign
trip and interviewed in London about
the political situation in the United
States declared that it was blue for the
republicans. democratic victory in
November would not surprise him. He
picks Mr.. Roosevelt for 1912. and hopes
TO see him the candidate. His party. he
says. must cast out the men who have
controlled it for the past quarter of a
century.
Mr. Churchill does not seem to know
that the men who have controlled the
republican party for the past quarter Of
q century are the men who elected Theo-
dore Roosevelt Governor Of New York
IN 1893, Vice President I'm 1900 and Presi-
dent in 1904. Mr.. Roosevelt was glad Of
their support. and in ONCE worked with
them with a will. He left the White
House last year on excellent terms with
the great majority OF them. Why should
the party cast them out. and at the same
time prepare to accept the leadership
again OF the man who with their aid
made SO great q name for himself and
accomplished SO much for the country:
We hear frequently and from many
sources criticism OF Mr.. Taft for the
relations he holds with Mr.. Aldrich and
Mr.. Cannon. Why has he not barred
the door against them? Why should
he be visited by. and give his confidence
to, leaders so roundiy denounced by men
ana newspapers OF prominence In repub-
iican councils? BY whom, except rep
resentatives Of the interests, Is either
Mr.. Aldrich or Mr.. Cannon trusted to-
day3 And SO forth.
Do not the men who taik.i this strain
know that MT. Roosevelt while in once
gave hts confidence quite as fully to
Mr.. Aldfich and to Mr.. Cannon as Mr..
Taft has ever done? Did the doors of
the White House ever swing wider at
the approach Of the chairman Of the
Senate finance committee or the Speaker
Of the Houee them during the seven
years occupancy Of that building by
Theodore Roosevelt? Did not Mr.. Roose-
welt pay public tribute to Mr.. Cannon?
And Is It not q. widely accepted belief
In political circles that 1t was the In
duence Of Mr.. Aldrich that prevented
Mr.. Roosevelt at the beginning OF his
second administration, so to say. from
taking up tho tariff Question?
Why. then, all OF this gable about
putting Mr.. Taft out and Mr.. ROose-
Welt in again ON the allegation that the
former keeps, and the latter did not keep,
bad company? Are Mr.. Aldrich and Mr..
Cannon worse men now than a year or
60 asoc What proves it? No rot de-
serves more justly the description of
tommyret than the rot Mr.. Churchill
and hts friends are assiduously circu-
lating.
