Losses Of a Little War.
From the Boston Transcript.

From the Boston Transcript.
The people of the United States are in
clned TO minimize the wars in the politi-
cally volcanic republics 10 the south of
us. We hear so much OF so many gen
erals i'm the course of a Central Ameri-
can revolution, OF SO many battles IN
which the two armies participating would
scarcely reach in the aggregate the
strength Of an ordinary brigade. that we
are apt to conclude that the casualties
are small in proportion to the FORCES
participating. In this conclusion the
fierceness Of neighborhood fighting, car
ried on at close quarters, the belliserents
seeing the whites of one another's eyes.
Is overlooked. We think that these revo-
lutions and campaigns will soon be over.
and that in any event the struggles In
the minor Latin American states can
have little bearing on the progress OF the
movement to substitute arbitration Tor
war in the settlement of internal or IN
ternational complications. Nicaragua,
which after almost year of civil war
has reached at least truce, IL not peace.
has had an experience which should be
corrective OF the impressions to which we
have referred. The contest which mas
been raging for almost ten months has
cost the lives OF four or five thousand
Nicaraguans. without reckoning the
deaths incident to the war but not oc-
curing in il. What these figures mean be-
comes apparent when We realize that tne
entire population of this little republic
cannot possibly exceed that or the city
of Boston.

A Rare Mischance.

In this complex life of ours accidents
happen in the most peculiar manner.
There Is no way to foresee some of the
nishaps that beset humanity. Here is
one just reported from New Jersey. A
young woman leaning out of second
story window watching a fire company
dash by in response to an alarm was
struck in the face by a shoe cast by one
of the engine horses and painfully In
jured. There is a rare combination Of
chances The likelihood OF a shoe being
cast by a fire horse is but slight. and
the probability that the shoe thus Pc
cGliarly thrown should fly high enough
TO reach a second-story window is in 1T
eeif meager. But that a shoe should be
cast in this manner and reach p human
target al such a distance effects a COM
bination that has probably never occurred
before and may never occur again. No
one could figure on this combination by
any mathematical Juggling with the law
OF chances. Some accidents are strictly
.avoidable, as when people delibera tely
put themselves in the way of danger
without need But watching the progress
OF fire company from the presumably
vantage point Of an upper window could
scarcely be considered as hazardous
Nevertheless this mishap adds to the sug-
gestion that life in large cities is uncer-
tain and full OF perils.

ly we'll known to every tourist. Even
those who are not acquainted with the
details OF the law are Informed before
reaching these shores, SO that there Is no
excuse of ignorance on the part OF any
incoming traveller, either native or foreign
born. A failure to declare dutiable ar
ticles Is attributable solely to a desire
to evade the law. which Is no less a pun
ishabie act because OF the comparative
insignificance of the duty involved. The
woman who tries to smuggle a necklace
through the customs to evade the pay
ment of a few dollars tariff would prob
ably be the first to invoke the law to
punish any tradesman who tried to cheat
her. The husband Of the would-be SNUG
gler in this case has presumably had oc-
casion I'm the past to appeal TO court TO
protect his rights. To him the law Is
significant and useful institution when 1t
works in his favor. but 1t is something
to be evaded when II goes against his in
terest.
Unfortunately there is general feel
ing that IL is not disgraceful to be caught
smuggling. This Is perhaps because only
light penalties are as a rule inflicted upon
those who are thus detected In an effort
to cheat the customs. In most cases
fines are imposed or the goods are con-
fscated, whereas il the Imprisonment
penalty was more frequently administer
ed the prohibition against differentiation
or failure to declare dutiable goods would
acquire significance. II every returning
traveller were thus warned that the con-
sequence of detection I'm the act Of dodg-
ing the tariff would be term in Jail
there would be more honesty on board
ship and on the piers. and the task of the
customs inspectors would be rendered
easier through a more wholesome re-
spect for the law on the part of pas
sengers.

Party Regularity and 1896.

Mr.. Bryan thinks that the democratic
candidate for President in 1912 should
be a man who supported his party in
1896 as in the three subsequent national
contests. He wants a nominee without a
break in his record OF party regularity.
He lays great stress on regularity.
We may believe, therefore, that he
takes pleasure in Hoke Smiths latest
success. Mr.. Smith can show the sort of
record Mr.. Bryan admires. He did not
agree with Mr.. Bryan on the silver ques-
ton in 1896, but in order to be regular
and encourage his party by his regularity
he resigned from Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet,
where the influence was all anti Bryan.
His course in 1900, 1904 and 1908 was
easy, and called for no personal sacrifice
on his part.
But what will be Mr.. Bryan's feelings
toward the senatorial aspirat tons OF Da-
vid r. Francis OF Missouri? They are
now formally announced. Mr.. Francis,
II will be remembered, succeeded Mr..
Smith as Secretary OF the Interior. He
knew Mr.. Smiths reason for retiring.
and so in taking his place virtually an
nounced antagonism to the democratic
ticket He continued In office TO the end
Of Mr.. Cleveland's term. Will Mr.. Bryan
wish Mr.. Francis well? Will he stump
Missouri I'm the interest of Mr.. Francis
candidacy?
BY 1900, Mr. Francis, like others who
had bolted four years before, was in line
again That year Mr. Bryan and free sill
yer had no terrors for him. And OF course
in the contest of 1904 Mr.. Francis found
pleasure In supporting Judge Parker.
who, like himself. was a gold man. In
fact. had IL not been for Mr.. Francis
bolt in 1896 he would probably have been
placed second on the ticket with Judge
Parker. New York and Missouri would
have made a better geographical COM
bination than New York and West Vir-
ginia.
But there was his bolt staring Mr..
Francis in the face. Judge Parker had
not subscribed to the doctrine of free sill
yer at any time. but had voted the ticket
| in 1896. Otherwise his nomination fol-
President would have been impossible
Mr. Bryan, who did not want him, and
foresaw his defeat, could have used
| bolt against Judge Parker disastrously.
Mr.. Bryan's insistence on regularity
will grow in interest and Importance. we
shall hear much on the subject in the
next two years, and all the more should
Gov. Harmon be reelected. He. like MI
Francis, was anti-Bryan in 1896. and sal
with Mr.. Francis at the cabinet table
where Mr.. Cleveland and all OF his ad'
visers were pulling for democratic de-
feat.
