trine it has yet q be proved that the
best sentiment Of majority would IA
vor fight with any Of the EUROPEAN
nations in case any one should venture
to challenge the Monroe doctrine
We also believe that the most signif-
cant paper read at the recent Mohonk
conference on arbitration was that of
Rear Admiral Chadwick, because it
showed this broad-uiinded and very alert
American officer as being pro-German
IN his sympathies ana inclined to assume
that the best way to have international
peace is to ignore Germanys desire for
colonies and allow her to expand where
she will, sure that wherever she goes
she will raise standards of efficient gov
ernment and sane living.
And we further believe with the adj
mifal that there are fewer citizens in the
United States to-day than ever before
who, relatively speaking. would wish TO
see this country embroiled in a war to
sustain the Monroe doctrine

nur British Cousins.

Our friends across the sea find that
Senator William Alden Smiths report
and remarks about the Titanic disaster
are "bombsstic bosh." All we have to
say IN reply is that we think this remark
emphzticslly British.
Willthey, can they, deny the facts, and
If so, on what kind of evidence? Will
they follow the principle of the old
Roman lawyer who exclaimed from the
rostrum "Si fecisti mega" (if you are
guilty, deny it,. Let US say that the Brit
ish Board of Trade and its inquiry COM
mission hesitate from exposing the char
scteT of Englishmen to further reproach.
But if so, do they forget that to exten-
uate them is to invite a repetition?
Would such procedure rebound to the
credit of that great seafaring nation? Is
it not to the interest of England that
such conditions in the mercantile ma
rine shall be remedied, no matter at what
cost or at what degree of injury to the
individual?
However, we find at last one paper that
is not afraid or conceited enough to
whitewash that which is too black for
whiteEash. We. refer to the London
Daily News, which has this to say:
''Seme of 'its (the oommittee's) con-
clusions are irresistible, and they are
very disturbing. We cannot believe the
Titanic alone of British ships had these
defects. They are probably very general
among the liners, and if that be so one
of the proudest of British institutions
needs very considerable overhauling."
This sounds more like It We give
warni6g. to oursBritish friends that it
will not do to defend everything Eng
lish, men, deeds, or institutions, just be-
cause they are English. The time has
gone BY when the man who had the
good fortune to have been born on the
little ISLAND strip to the north of the
English Channel" considered it part of
his national creed to look with contempt
upon those "pitiable" human beings who
were not Britishers. Such a course
places on trial before the whole world
the English character, and in this case
also the British marine for its lack of
seamanship.
Lord Mersey, well known from the
days of his justiceship, is not the man
to acqut the British Board of Trade,
thus declaring that the Titanic was sailed
admirably. unless he can disprove the
charges laid by Senator William Alden
Smith and his committee upon evidence
cited. Were he to do so, it would incite
travellers who could consult their own
convenience to patronize any line ex-
cept d British, because of the apparent
desire of the British government to be
an aooompliee in manslaughter by bad
seamansfip.
Perhaps the Senator's style of oratory
IS displeasing to Our cousins, and perhaps
also he IS not an accomplished naviga-
tor, but he has proved himself an &C
complished Investigator, and our British
contemporaries appear in a very uues-
tionsble light intellectually by espousing
cause that can but hurt the British
prestige and reputation for a Square
deal" and sufficient safeguarding of
ocean travel.

Rear Admiral AIahan, in a plea for a
steady increase of our navy-which. as
we had occasion to point out in these
columns yesterday, is not shared by the
Democratic leaders of the House-says
that the Monroe doctrine has not behind
it a shred of sanction from international
law, because its assertions are contrary
to established international practice, and
because it rests solely upon the will OF
the American people. who have no right
to dictate to others what to do and what
not to do.

Seven Modern Wonders.


In. the remote, misty ages of the pas
the fashion was set of measuring tn,
progress of the human race by naming
the seven great wonders of the world
and it would seem that we have not yet
gotten past the custom. Cornell fac.
ulty, graduates, and seniors of the chem.
ical department have issued a liss oi
the seven most wonderful instances oi
modern ingenuity in the following or,
der of the relative importance: Wire
less telegraphy, synthetic chemistry,
radium, antitoxin, aeroplanes, Pan
anna Canal, and telephone.
Here is certainly food enough for
wonder, but the thought naturally comes
as to whether this would be the univer-
sal selection or if the prejudice of the
scientist is to be seen through it. Again,
one wonders if, had the selection
been made prior to the Titanic disas-
ter, wireless would have been awarded
the first place even by scientists. Syn
thetic chemistry, which has gone so far
as to enable a scientist to make from
the materials Of his laboratory the
dishes of food for number. Of guests,
and which gives US favoring extracts
which never saw fruit as well as
many other wonders and mysteries,
naturally stands high in the esteem OF
its votapes. Radium and antitoxins, OF
course, hold high rank with all, espe-
cially with chemists.
Aeroplanes have been long in the
making, and the mastery of the air has
had high place in mans imagination
from the old Greek times when Icarus,
the son of Daedalus, dared to try to
fly across that sea named for him, the
Icarian Sea, on wings fastened to him
by wax, and by his audacious soaring
came too close to the sun, by which the
wax was melted and he fell to death,
as many of his presumptuous Success
sors have done. The Panama Canal
would doubtless hold higher place
among the wonders # chosen by lay
men or engineers. 1t is possible, also,
that physicists would put the telephone
higher up than the chemists of Cornell
have done. But it is very evident that
the body of members Of the chemical
faculty. have heen loyaI 70 the tradi-
tions of their cult in the importance
which they give to the wonders of their
own particular children of the science
family, and it is quite likely that the
list will receive several revisions before
the wise men of this day will agree upon
any seven of the wonders and mysteries
of the present day. We live in an age
when one is not certain but that this
very day will bring to our knowledge
some invention or discovery which will
eclipse in mystery and value all of its
We have wondered until
we are blase and are prepared for al
most anything and not much surprised
at anything, 50 fast is our progress be-
ing showered upon US.
But this much is certain, that the
list here, given makes that of an
cient times and the one of the Middle
Ages both cut but sorry figures in hu-
man development by comparison
