Astonishing.
the New York Tribune

rom IIe new 1Ork Tribune.
The speech of acceptance delivered
yesterday at Seagirt. \. j., is an astOund-
ing political document. Who wrote it?
Certainly not DIR. Woodrow Wilson, the
historian, publicist and student OF gov
eminent. chased to the woods some time
ago because of his unfortunate tendency
to express definite views on all sorts of
embarrassing questions. No, the inSpi-
ration Of yesterdays address must have
come from some other quarter. Matthew
S. Quay once telegraphed to a republic
an candidate for governor in Penneylva-
mia: Dear Beaver-DOn't talk. A
communication from the managers of the
Wilson campaign must have reached Sea-
girt a couple of weeks ago. reading
Dear Woodrow-Talk. if you have to.
but don't say anything" Nobody who
carefully studies the remarkable colloca-
ton of polished commOnplaces and studied
evasfons delivered yesterday at Seagirt
can see in it any of the characteristics
of the Wilson of the past save the single
one-a disposition to kick over the ladder
by which he has risen-which came into
unpleasant notice in the course of the
Wills on Harvey atterson fracas.

Bakers Forced to Bake.
ON the London Chronicle

FROM the LONDON CnrOnlcic.
The French master bakers who, by
refusing to bake, have placed Toulouse
in fear Of a bread famine would have
had but sorry time of it in the past.
In the sixteenth century, for instance,
the French baker was forced to make
bread. and bread of the weight re-
CURED by law, ION pain of being
scOurged." Occasionally there were de-
faulters, and then the authorities
moved. The offenders were occa-
sionally condemned to be whipped
naked at the cross roads" And more
elaborate punishments were arranged.
In 1921, for instance, four bakers were
conveyed by the police to the porch of
Notre Dame bareheaded, and each car
rying a taper two pounds weight
there to beg pardon Of God, Of the
king. and of justice for the frauds
which they had committed in the fab
rication, and In the deficient weight Of
their bread"

y Munich paper has been searching the
records of history to discover who were
the first mountain cli-lbers. 1t gives the
palm To Moses and his ascent Of Mount
Sinai and rules out Noah for his ascent
% Mount Ararat because he made il in a
boat. There is sufficient evidence to show
that the ancieus thought mountain climb
ing sheer madness.
No one in the time OF Horace or Polyb-
ius wanted to go climbing for a sum-
ner holiday. A Chinese emperor In the
seventh century was the first to make
climbing fashionable = tlp east But
the first true tourists IN Europe seem to
have been Dante, PetraTch and Leonard
Then came the Emperor Macmillan /,

Swiss mountains But climbing for pleas
ure, such as We know il today, was not

COMMENT ON WILSON'S
SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE

makes it perfectly clear that he does not
intend to be led away from the dominant
issue of this campaisn-the reform and
revision downward Of the tariff-into any
discussion OF side issues. OF of questions
which are Of state rather than Of ma
tional concern. His speech is a plea for
the administration of the government.
and especially the taxing power OF the
government-the greatest Of all powers
in the interest Of the whole people, and
not for the benefit of any special class
or private interest. There is the ring of
genuine Jeffersonian democracy in every
line of il, and no man can read 1t with
out realizing that Wilson does not merely
profess, as so many public men are in
the habit of doing, a belief in Jeffer
sonisn democracy. but that he under
stands what Jeffersonian democracy is.
and that is what cannot be said Of most
of its prOfessed advocates.

Political Philosophy.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
1t is a system of political philosophy
not a plan of action, that Gov. Wilson
presents in his speech accepting the
democratic nomination to the presidency.
His philosophy is no abstraction. how
ever 1t is very practical. and has a
direct bearing upon our national prob
lens and policies. 1t is applicable. The
dominant thought, the very soul Of
his discourse. is the common interest
of all the people, their partnership in our
activities and ONr prosperity. The part
nership idea comes from his mind, not
as sub.imated political theory, but as
a practical, immediate remedy.

Moderation and Restraint.
ON the Philadelphia Ledger.

From tue Philadelphia Ledger.
Gov. Wilson's speech of acceptance is
distinguished by the moderation and re-
straint which are its dominant charac-
teristics. by it's rich diction, virile ex-
preston and statesmanlike quality. Sc
lected by his party because he stood for.
or was supposed to stand for, the most adj
vanced doctrines of 'progressivism,'' the
Governor of New Jersey makes the key
note of his campaign calm and sober
statement of the great governmental,
economic and social problems that await
solution by the American people, and
shows the mental attitude with which
he would approach the great task of find
ing the solutions should he be intrusted
with the responsibilities of the presidency.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1912-08-08
From the New York World.

Woodrow Wilson's speech Of acceptance
is the ablest, clearest, sanest statement
of high public purpose this country has
known in a generation. Without passion,
without invective. without abuse. without
partisan bitterness, without denunciation.
without egotism. without demagogy, he
has driven straight to the heart of the
supreme issue of American institutions
the partnership between government and
privilege. Every great conflict within the
lifetime of the republic has hinged upon
this one question. Every great reform
ma rking a milestone in the political prog
ress of the American people has forced
the dissolution of such partnership.

Making Things Over.
From the New York Herald.

What Gov. Wilson purposes to bring
about might be Iikened to "a tremorlesS
earthquake His speech of acceptance
Will be read widely and discussed seri-
oUSiy. We doubt if any deliverance from
nominee OF either of the great parties
was ever keyed on such high. ambi-
tious plane or ever had so much re-
semblance to the Ten Commandments or
the Golden Rule. The governor is
summate skill Gov. Wilson is not only
going to make over the United states"
he is going to make over american hui
man nature" Running through his en-
tire speech are frequent references to the
rule of justice and of right and the
rule of right and the common advan
taSe.

last night. When sighted at 7 o'clock
from the inwa rd-b bound Cunard teamship
Caronia she was laying over to weather
a strong wind, but to all appearances all
was well aboard after her. long voyage.
The Detroit was a mere speck on the At

all sides. 1t was learned later that the
Detroit made the Irish coast at s o'clock

hours from Nantucket

perienced continual bad weather. strong
southeast winds and nigh seas. She HAD
absolutely no trouble with the engine
and stopped only once from water in
the gasonne fuel. Her consumption was
thirty-nine gallons a day. About 40
gallons were left IN the tanks. The cost
Tor fuel and fabrication was about 4
cents q mile.

The boat was very uncomfortable and
a terrible roller. The water in the tanks
spoiled and she had no water for the rest
OF the passage. The amateur crew,
Moreton and Earl. behaved splendidly
All hands were very tired, but in good
health. Capt. Day said:
I'VE have solved the fuel problem,
showing that the projected race from
New York to Paris is perfectly feasible.

boating is all hard work. There is no
pleasure like sailing. The Detroit ia the
pioneer Of the thousands of vessels that
within few years will cross the western
ocean driven by internal combustion en-
gines.'
Boat and Grew Cheered.
The Detroit was loudly cheered on ar
irving in the outer harbor at Queenstown.
Capt. Day and the crew responded en-
Enthusiastically. Irish fishermen piloted the
vessel to the inner harbor, and along the
shore front the people cheered wildly.
The chairman Of the Queenstown urban
council, with others. met Capt Day on
landing and rendered a hearty welcome
to the captain and crew. Accompanied
by cheering crowds. they went to the Rob
Roy Hotel. They were scarcely able to
walk. owing to their long confinement

AS Mr. Smith was one of the best
