pulsion there is must be of the nor
NAL class. While this report is still
far from confirmation, it is pertinent
to show that If the four nations
should unite for peace, the moral
compulsion could be made extremely
forcible.
Both President Taft and Sir Ed
ward Grey have clearly disavowed
any intention to load the arbitration
treaty between the United States and
England with defensive alliance.
That would have seemed premature
in treaty between only two nations
But if>the time is 80 ripe as to bring
together on those principles the four
nations having the much greater halt
Of the naval power Of the world, and
nearly half Of the military force, it's
full effect requires the inclusion OF
the condition which would be not
strictly defensive alliance, but one
that would adapt the meaning of that
term to the maintenance of arbitra-
ton as real international law.
To that end If such compact were
made between the four nations nam.
ed, it should include not only the
pledge Of arbitration between all ite
members, but also pledge that ev.
cry one Of it's members will be ready
to submit all its international dis
putes with outside powers to arbi-
trament by an international tribunal
To give this agreement binding force
the step further should be taken that
all the parties to the compact pledge
their military and naval strength, fl

powers and next defend each Of these
powers against aggression from one

who was elected by the fusionists, is
one Of the strongest and most bril-
liant men in the state. He is q
prodigy. It. fs really remarkable that
q man 81 years of age should have
risen by his own efforts to so high a
place. And this brings me to re-
mark that the young man in; Tennes-
see has been a great factor in the
reformation Of politics in Tennessee.
Senator Lea is 81, Gov. Hooper is
80, and the newly elected Republican
representative Of the First congress
sional district, Sam Sells, is on the
sunny side of 40.
. President Taft is growing in the
estimation Of the people of Tennes-
see," continued Mr.. Sanders. Il be-
lieve he will get the vote of the Re-
publican delegation in the conven-
tion. Tennessee indorses his admin
istration. The people are in favor Of
Canadian reciprocity and Of revi-
sion of the tariff"
A variation Of the old story of the
blind man" who sees himself robbed
of the pennies tossed into cup in
his extended hand is given by former
Representative Harry Maynard of
Norfolk. Va.
"This actually happened in Nor
folk" said Mr.. Maynard. "A blind
man was standing in front Of the
Monticello hotel with outstretched
hand, begging for pennies. On his
hat was a sign. I am blind Along
came a practical oker, who dipped
into the extended cup, and instead Of
depositing money took out nickel.
Come back here with that mon
ey,'. exclaimed the beggar. Il saw
you take it.
"You saw me take it?' replied
the joker. I thought you were blind.
"'No, I'm not blind; am only sub

sympathy of the people Of Ell Paso
Is with the insurrectos," said Col.
Lyon. They like 'em pretty we'll,
and would do almost anything for
them, but they have some prior loves.
One Of the most priced relics of Ell
Paso for years has been an old Span
ish heldpiece which stood in Foun-
tain park for more years than can be
counted by residents.
Now while Ell Paso people like
the, insurgents, they like their old
fieldpiece better, and when this trou-
BILE began the authorities determined
that they could not part with the
cannon, even to benefit the revolu-
tionists. So they planted steel up-
right close to the cannon and forged
heavy chains which they secured to
the cannon and locked with many
locks to the upright.
This looked like the cannon was
safe enough. but not long ago some
OF the most daring Of the INSURGENTS
stole into the park at night and
pried the cannon loose from the up-
right and carted 1t across the Rio
Grande. 1t was reported later that
they were carrying It triumphantly
of to their column mounted on a
truck. and It ID probably the most
valuable fieldpiece in the service of
the insurgents. The Ell Paso resi-
dents cannot be reconciled to the
loss Of their beloved relic Of The
early Spanish days"

CLASH OVER NEW JERSEY
PRIMARY.

Gov. Woodrow Wilson's efforts to
simplify politics and set up a new
machinery for the registering of the
will Of the New Jersey voters now
finds him in antagonism to the Demo-
cratic state chairman and his follow
ing in the legislature, not formidable
in number, but potential in politics
as heretofore understood and approv-
ed. AS the detection is among men,
bers hailing from the northern part
Of the state, it Is to be inferred that
the sentiment in the large towns is
opposed to the idea of taking politics
out OF polttics-or, at least, the life
and liberty of the thing-and making
an election as colorless a proceeding
as taking a straw vote.
The disaffected Democrats are not
hostile to the primary plan as
whole, but to certain features of the
governors. bill which, as they allege,
would operate against party organi-
zation and effort, and which are de-
INJURED to by the average voter as
taking. too much out of the handling
of local issues. But seeing that the
primary commends itself more
strongly to city conditions than to
the country precincts, the governor
refused to agree to notifications. His
interview with the Democratic lead
er, wherein they came to the parting
of the ways, is described as heated
and acrimonious to the point of q
slap on the wrist. "You never was a
gentleman" quoth the wrathful or
! ganization man as he strobe out of
the governors office.
Gov. Wilson's bill was passed by
the house nevertheless, but it's fate
in the Republican senate is altogether
problematical. The Republicans,
like the dissenting Democrats, regard
the measure as too radical. and they
have one of their own which, it is
claimed, will more closely meet the
views Of the people of the state.
The incident suggests the thought
that while Gov. Woodrow Wilson still
commands the ear and respect of his
people to an exceptional degree, there
are unmistakable indications of irri-
tation growing out Of his sweeping
propositions and Incorporating at
titude. He seeks to reverse a tried
and accepted system Of politics at one
fell swoop, an ambitious move rarely
successful in any line Of endeavor.
Admitting that his hobby" contem-
plates the recasting of human nature
as the starting point. the governor
sees not, apparently, that there is a
little more human nature in politics
than in any other institutional OBJ
stacle to his scseme Of reform that
he is likely to encounter.

Havana

u8v8Q0c
Not since the days Of 'tFlorodora''
has New York been treated to a
more tuneful and picturesque musi-
cal comedy than Havana" Lake the
first named piece which was import
ed from London. "Havana" was
brought out in this country at the
casino, and theater-goers were quick
In appreciating the true merits of
the piece. Its stay at the Casino was
longer than that Of any musical
comedy produced during the past de-
cade and the Messrs. Shubert, who
control the American rights, are
sending the piece on tour, with James
7. Powers In the stellar position.
The company numbers over 100 peo-
pie. The play is in three acts. Sam
uel Nix, bos'un Of the American yacht
Wasp, has visited Cuba seven years
before the action Of the play begins.
There he married a Cuban belle. The
first act Of the play finds the Wasp,
with NIX among the crew, anchored
In the harbor Of Havana" He is
fearful OF meeting his wife, whom he
has deserted. and his peculiar move
ments cause him to be mistaken for
q revolutionary sympathizer. He is
impressed into the cause Of the con-
spirators and is soon arrested BY the
police as the ringleader. His sen
tence is death. He is fortunately
resrued by his wife. who. in spite Of
the ignomintous flight Of Nix, takes
him back and the audience is left to
infer that the Wasp leaves port with
another bos'un.
Havana will be seen at the Metro
politan on Monday, April 3.
