THE STROKE OF FATE IN PORTU
GAL

The overthrow of the Portuguese
monarchy and the establishment of
republic has been confidently expected
for some time. Less than three weeks
ago the editor of La Vanguardia, one
of the most enlightened of the public
men of the day, gave out well rea-
soned forecast in which he said that q
republic was not only inevitable, but
near at hand. No country in Europe
has been in q state of greater unrest.
The taxes are oppressive, the revenue
is low, the tobacco monopoly is hated,
and the extravaganza Of the royal fam
lily while King Carlos was on the
throne was great. These things have
kept the public and the politicians in
a ferment. The anti-Clericals and the
adherents OF Don Miguel, the pretend
er, have been active. Overshadowing
every other movement, however, has
been the militant demand for repub.
lie as the only salvation of the coun.
try, and the indications are that the
plans of the republicans have been Sc
we'll laid that they become effective al
most at blow.
The time of Prince Henry the Navi
gator constituted the golden age o
Portugal. and her mariners, obedien
to the Princes direction to ''follow thu
setting sun until you find an island,
more than carried out their instruc
lions. Since the loss of Brazil in 1922
however, the oversee dominions of tn
mother country have shrunk consider
ably. Portugal itself has only 34,5O'
square miles of territory, and a popu
lation of but little more than 5, GOO, 900
That the desire for republic is deep
seated, and not passing furry, SEEM
certain. How well the people are pre-
pared for responsible government re

Mr.. Kerr is too well known to need

Mr.. White will no doubt become an

Claude r. Zappone, the representative
for the Potomac Boat Club. Of this city,
at the New York meeting of the National
Rowing Association TO determine the
place of this years national regatta, re-
turned to washington last night, after
having succeeded in bringing the great
aquatic event to the Potomac River for
this summer.
His story Of the meeting only proves
conclusively that the other cities trying
TO land the privilege Of holding the re-
gatta never had a show against the
claims OF the Washington oarsmen.
Saratoga Did Not withdraw.
Contrary TO the statement issued last
night by the New York papers. he says
that Saratoga did not withdraw in favor
Of the Capital City. and Baltimore re
Trained from doing so until absolutely the
last minute.
The dates set for the event were July
% and 30. but Mr.. Zappone was given the
privilege Of changing the dates If he deem
ed it advisable. and unless they con-
hict seriously with the committees plans.
1t is probable that his recommendations
on the matter viii be accepted without
question.
Practically Set Own Date.
The matter of dates is another incident
that shows how much all the oarsmen
present were In favor of holding the re-
gatta on the Potomac. for. although either
Baltimore or Saratoga was willing 10 ae-
eept any date set by the committee. Mr..
Zappone set his own date for the affair.
after he had objected TO one proposed by
the national committee.
The members OF the Potomac Boat

gatta for the last month. are completely
satisfied and happy over the result They
viii get into action Immediately on the
