ENGLAND AND PERSIA.

Shusters case is far more comment
ed on in England than in the United
States at the present time and is the
cause of considerable trouble and en-
barrassment to the British ministry.
The British party in power is COM
posed of all the democratic elements
in the kingdom. 1t is in sympathy
with popular movements everywhere.
1t is intensely irritating to many
members of the party that England
should remain in partnership with
Russia and calmly stand by and wit
ness the ravishment Of Persia. Shus-
ter, On his way home, keeps writing to
the British newspapers, advertising
the impertinent facts of the case.
Yet the ministry has an obsession on
the subject of Germany's warlike plans
and dares do nothing which might
throw Russia into the arms of Ger
many or detach the friendship of
France. which has an alliance with
Russia even stronger than it's entente
cordiale with England.

The senator's friends are trying to
excuse him, stating he was not him.
self, and insist that the entire AFFAIR
was due to his breakdown, and did
not reflect mature judgment, or even
his own convictions on the subject.
Their very excuses prove that the
senator is not a big enough man TO
be at the head Of this country. If he
is liable to do and say things now,
the campaign is but just COM
mencing, that even his friends must
apologize for, what could be expected
of him if he was in the chief execu-
tive's chair, n had the daily grind
of perplexing problems to meet?
The incident shows that the senator
is o only merely a theorist, but that
he is too weak to present his own
honest convictions, and stand for their
enforcement. 1t is no wonder that
many of his adherents are slipping
away.

IT WILL NOT suRsIpE.

Colonel Watterson has retired to the
everglades of Florida. but his little
controversy still stirs the democratic
ranks. The Brooklyn Times tries to
decide some of the features of the dis
pute, and recently remarked:
A direful clang arose from the silver
tongue of the Kentuckian. Homer
might have written. had it been his
good fortune to chronicle the campaign
of 1912, instead of that little fracas
about the walls of Troy. A horrendous
war is upon us. and from inkwells and
.gluepots throughout the country.
Democratic editors are hurting grape
and canister at the rival armies of
their various colonies. I'm a manner

Colonel Harvey. he adds, seemed to
be under a spell wrought by the de-
signing doctor of Princeton. The aus
tere Kentuckian was ven pictorial
lied in the ribald press side by side
with the wicked wizard.
Good fortune and a managing edi-
tor who spends some of his time in
Louisville kept these damning pictures
out of the chaste columns of The Cou-
rier journal, and after a time the
mint-plumed knight of the blue grass
broke through the spell and got away.

broadside in the early morning to the
itinerant governor of New Jersey. He

Watterson is for peace with honor,
and unlike Roosevelt, he is willing to
arbitrate. The tribunal he suggests is
"a body of gentlemen and democrats"
But how can such a body be found?
What is a democrat has puzzled the
nation more than what is whisky.
how can the colonel and the doc
tor ever agree on who is a gentleman?
we fear the good ~coloneI's offer to ar
and prevent the awful carnage
of strife and battle will prove unavail-
ing, and in the meantime what a
southern contemporary euphoni0usly
called the war between the states has
become the war between the demo-
