FOREIGN NEWS NOTES

Paris. Feb. S.-San Marine, the
smallest independent state in Europe
the confines Of the country are so
restricted that the army has never
fired its one piece Of artillery for the
reason that the proiectle would in
wade foreign soil-has just elected its
rulers for the next constitutional per
iod. The election took place at about
the same time that France elected
NJ. Poincare TO succeed NJ Fallieres
TO the presidency OF France but II
was attended with no excitement, no
campaigning and practically no I'M
certainty, and San Marine will now
continue with its new regents for a
space OF six months. when the next
election takes place.
The grand council OF San Marine.
composed OF 80 members, elect the
two rulers who preside over the destin-
les Of the state under the title of cap
tains regent. The regents are chosen
by the council without their having
even to go through the formality OF an
nouncing their candidature.
San Marine has existed as a sover
egn independent state since the frst
dawn OF modern history. Its army
will never trouble the peace OF Europe
consisting as It does OF a dozen cara
biniers and a few customs house ex
aminers. The state. which lies. be
tween two provinces OF Italy, has g
population Of about 10000 people and
an area OF 3s square miles. The can
non which Is never tred for fear OF
international complications, rests II
peace in the courtyard OF the govern
ment house.

France. will depart from the custom

airy seclusion of French presidents
and accept freely such private invita-
tons as he may desire.
The etiquette has been that the
president confne his social life to
a small circle of intimate personal
friends and to vast official entertain
ments given by himself and paid for
out of the 100000 allowed for that
purpose by the government NJ. Poin-
care sees no reason, he says, to live
the secluded life of a monarch or to
deprive himself of instructive and
pleasant social intercourse with his
fellow men, and he viii do neither.
There is no center where the dis
appearance Of the war cloud would be
received with greater pleasure than
in Paris. Ever since September the
shadow of the Balkan complications,
and then the actual operations OF war,
have Influenced trade and commerce
adversely. The reason is the sensitive
ness OF the market. inseparable from
furs and furbelows. feathers, silks, sat
ms and jewelry, which constitute the
basis OF French industry. Prosperity
is great, but 1t is a prosperity de-
pendent on fashion and its changes,
and hence is subject to constant fiuc-
tuations.
A sign Of better times, however. is
the immense amount of rebuilding now
going on in the city. Old houses are
coming down TO give place to snowy,
new business premises, overlaid with
ornamentation.
This activity in bricks and morta in
the center OF the town is proof OF the
PArisian's reluctance to inhabit the
suburbs. There is practically no build
/ ing going on IN the districts outside

So says Newton D. Baker, aggres-

existed before.
This is not because the county gov
eminent has been inactive. The 400

of brick pavement in the city. Two
