GIVING BRYAN A CHANCE.

The subcommittee Of the Democratic
National Committee which selected eX-
Judge Parker for the temporary chair
manship Of the national convention
lacked constructive Imagination. 1t did
NOT fOreScc that # was playing directly
into the hands of the greatest heart tirer
and trouble maker who Will sit in the
convention. Under the foolish impress
sion that it was doing something which
would have harmOnizing effect. it act
ualIy lighted firebrand and put it in
the waiting hands of the party leader
who is most expert at welding such q
weapon in his own interest.
II has been the general fear among
Democrats that Mr.. Bryan would appear
at some stage Of the Baltimore cOnven-
ton as deus or mGchind, capturing and
uniting the divided progressive elements.
It was supposed that he would have to
wait until the convention had involved
itself i'm q stubborn deadlock before as
serting his leadership. That would have
been tedious. and the psychological mo-
ment might not have arrived after all.
The selection Of eX-Judge Parker, how
ever has relieved Mr.. Bryan Of the EN-
barrassment Of playing waiting game.
1t has enabled him TO raise a striking
personal issue ut the very opening of
the convention and to assume the leader
ship in a fight intended to draw the lines
between the radicals and the reaction
aries
The alacrity with which he has seized
the opportunity and the panic into which
he has thrown the leading progressive
candidates for the nomination eI:phasize
his courage and cast shadow on theirs.
Both Speaker Clark and Governor VIII
son are trying 10 tread softly and avoid
antagonizing Murphy and thus alienat-
ing the 90 uninstructed votes which he
carries around in his inside pocket. They
are afraid TO say whether they are for or
against Parker. But while they hesitate
Mr.. Bryan has dashed to the fore with
the progressive sheep from the reaction
AIRY goats. and in the opening skirmish
he will captain the forces on which both
the leading candidates depend mainly
for their support
II Mr.. Bryan can beat eX-Judge Par
ker he will become the chief factor In
the Baltimore fight-the chieftain 70
whom the radicals can rally with feryor

Deputies. eight, giving quotlent OF ~
800. The 5000 Republican votes III
vided by this quotient gives three Repuo-
lican Deputies elected. the 3J,OOo Soclal-
ist votes thus divided gives two Deputles'
and the 10000 Clerical votes thus dlVld-
ed gives only one Deputy. Thus only SIX
DEPUTIES are elected where eight are
called for. and the other two are conse-
Uuently assigned to the Republican or
plurality list, making final result or
five Republicans two Socialists and one
Clerical.
This latter feature Of the scheme, the
assignment Of the residue of seats, is the
one which has caused and will probaDly
continue to cause most controversy. 1t
was at first proposed to give the residue
Of seats to the various parties in pro"
portion to their votes, thus carrying the
proportional principle to the fullest pos
sible extreme. The government decided,
however to give them all to the major
ity or plurality party, partly in order to
give that party sort of bonus ana
partly In the hope Of thus swelling what
might otherwise be mere plurality into
clear majority Of the Chamber. There
is a probability that 1t will have this lat
ter result and thus will tend to confirm
and perpetuate the Republican Concen-
tratiOn, which since it was organized by
Waldecl Rousseau has been the hope or

THE PERSONAL FACTOR.

Great Britain follows the example Of
America in expressing appreciation Of
the conduct OF Captain ROstrOn OF the
Carpathia in relation TO the Titanic dis
aster. He deserves It, The world is
quick TO visit blame upon the culpable,
often without waiting to make sure Of
actual culpability or Of its degree 1t
is only fair that it should be at least
as quick to bestow praise when praise
is due.
There is another reason for It, and
that is TO apply in a reversed sense an
phrase, Ito encourage the
others" The captains Of the Titanic,
the Carpathia and the Californian pre-
sent three impressive object lessons in
the Importance Of the personal factor
and its predominance over even the larg-

THE TALK or THE DAY.

So Mortified are British maids and ma
irons at the stories told OF "cut-ups" at a
recent wedding In Delaware that It would
be difficult these days to induce an Eng
lish girl TO become a bride in that pro
gressive" atmosphere. or an English mother
to trust her daughter to the wild young
hoodlums Of the state where bride and
bridegroom were chained together Just for
fun" Tho common sense Britlshers can
not understand that kind OF practical jok-
ing, and gravely state that unbridled idiocy
should be suppressed by sufficient force

is offered by the Imperial Chancellor,
third prize of $4,000 marks by the Min

further evidence Of this movement for
the extension of German aviation, n
proclamation has been posted in banks
and business houses throughout the EN-
pire announcing that subscriptions are
being taken for a national aerOplane
fund
Germany was interested In aviation
before the French. but did not devote
much attention To il until after the
French had made numerous sensational
demonstrations. Now that Germany Is
concentrating so much Of her energy
upon the aeroplnne, we know less about
what she is doing than concerning the
French, for instance. The Germans
have fewer press agents. Little was
heard, therefore, OF the recent flight from
Berlin TO Vienna by the German aviator.

VIZ SHERMAN RENOMINATED.

The denomination for Nice-Presldeht
of James s. Sherman breaks all RECORDS
in the Republican party. From 1870 10
1908 it followed the rule Of choosing
new Vice Presidential candidate when
ever a President was to be renomlnated.
But this is an exceptional year, ana III
remaining Mr.. Sherman the national con-
vpntion recognized the fact that all
precedcnts may easily he cast ASIDE
when an exceptional situation arises.
New York's vote was the backbone OF
President Taft's support at Chicago IL
was the flrmness of its large delegation
which held the Taft lines tight and IN
spired confidence in the doubters from
other states. When New York asked for
Mr., Shcrmans denomination everybody
admitted the reasonableness Of the re-
quest. This state will be one of the
chief fighting grounds in the coming
and whatever helps here VIII
help the party all over the country. The
popularity with the Re
publicans of New York will he an impor-
tant asset in the November election.
