Editorial
Opinion
A Former PresIdent Abroad.

A Former President Abroad.
Chicago Tribune.
The present generation Of Americans
has seen two x-presidonts make tri-
umphal tours of Europe. But it was not
always thus. In 1853 Martin Van Buren
x-president like Mr.. Roosevelt and like
him. too. a New Yorker and an aristo-
crat visited the old world. but for him
no guns doomed from warshipa at
Naples, the Sorbonne did not reecho
with his oratory, and no military
squadrons wheeled I'm sham fight for
his benefit.
He made his way about from capital
TO capital unostentatiously and not
without complaint Of the cost Of living
and lack of American home comforts
His journey created no excitement in
Europe and no sensation at home. It
was taken primarily 10 benefit his
sons health, and i'm this IL was a fail
ure Had IL been a triumphal tour
like that Of Mr. Roosevelt 1t might
have carried him before many more
examples of royalty than can at pres
ent be seen, for then Italy had several
Kingdoms within its borders, and Ger
many was peppered with petty princi-
palities and monarchies.
But during his two years OF travel
Mr. Van Burcn went merely as an
American citizen. and when he was
received at court 1T is not likely that
many monarchs really knew who the
prim. little side whiskered man was
who bowed before them. To them
America was a vague locality over sea,
scarcely cutting any figure in diplo-
macy and little more In commerce.
In the library Of congress there are
a number Of letters written by Van
Buren during his travels. but they are
largely concerned with the clothes he
is having made for court presentation
and other occasions. He had great
trouble persuading tho tailors TO ac-
commodate themselves TO his desires.
At one time he ordered.
