very recently. Not only that, but it will hardly be
denied that the retirement of Cowdray has in effect
given new force to Monroeism, by Strengthening
the assurance that sentimental objection of this coun
try will be regarded seriously without even the ne
cessity for diplomatic representations in such cases.
Latin America, ii is to be confessed has been led
to msconsrue purpose in insisting upon the
Monroe Doctrine. That which we regard as a pro-
lection to them the minor republics construe as
Yet there is reason believe that they are
beginning to take a more accurate view. Ii we get
through the present crisis in Mexico without inter-
venton and without permitting Europe to intervene,
the record thus written in Mexico construed together
with the Cowdray incident in Colombia, will surely
be understood by the smaller countries assurance
of our good faith toward them. .@- -.
Mr.. Shuster fears that with increasing pressure
of population in Europe, seeking outlets into the vast
of the undeveloped Americas will at length
be put TO the test of force maintain the Monroe
Doctrine. That seems rather unlikely Honestly ad-
minstered-as President Wilson is administering it
in the affairs of Mexico and Colombia for example
the Monroe Doctrine has a moral force behind It
that may be expected to count in favor than
a preponderance of battleship tonnage With the
growth in population and power of the smaller re-
rubics, there will come time when something like
pan-American Monroeism will divide the RESPONSE
bility for maintenance of the doctrine; when the
other countries of this continent will have larger
voice and larger share in the burden of its enforce
ment That is the ideal which, it is to be hoped may
guide the development of this cardinal feature of
foreign policy.

MINORS AND LIQUOR SELLING.

There is no doubt that liquor is sold constantly
in Washington to minors, in violation of the law.
The fact that lot of college youths celebrated a
football occasion by going out and testing the fac
ties for having good time" should not be made an
occasion for disgracing them. The notion of inves-
tigating" the performance which took place on the
evening following the Georgetown-Virginia game is
well enough, if it shall be an investigation of the
liquor sellers that violated the law. But so long as
the town licenses some hundreds of places to sell
liquor and permits them to violate the law by selling
to persons not entitled to buy, the young men who
fell under that temptation ought not to be made the
real victims of the investigation.
Those excesses of virtue which inspire such in
QUESTIONS this might very we'll be suppressed.
There is for vast deal of improvement in
the management of the liquOr-seng establishments.
But instead of getting them properly improved, we
see young men and women somehow getting liquor
in public places, and their actions are denounced as
disgrace The community permits the vending of
liquor to be made just attractive just as seductive
just as tempting as it may be. The people who vio-
late the law are not going TO be particularly dis
graced by any investigations the youths who have
fallen under these temptations may be, or feel that
they have been which is much the same thing.
The liquor laws should be enforced all the time
not spasnodically. Their enforcement should be so
handled that such "disgraceful affairs as this COL
lege celebration would not become "disgraceful"
The punishment for such affairs wants to land where
it belongs; investigation, publicity gnominy, shame,
brought down upon the young people who were vic
Tins, not offenders will be exactly the wrong thing

. THE ARMY-NAVY GAME.

Z From New York comes the story that the great
Army Navy football contest at the Polo Grounds yes
terday lost most of its character as a great united
service contest, and rather degenerated into big
sporting spectacle devoid of the sentiment that has
commonly attached to it. Not at all surprising. New
Yorks disposition is to make sporting proposition
of anything between dining out and national elec-
ton. Sentiment has a small chance in the metrop-
olis.- -. .e...- .-.--..
Franklin Field, in Philadelphia, isn't perhaps as
big as might be desired, in point of accommodations
for the multitude, but there is reason believe
that Philadelphia makes up in sentiment and in ca
paciy TO recognize the distinctive character of the
contest what it may lack in other directions.
None the less the real place for this contest is
Washington. Here is the headquarters of both
branches of the service. Here is the habitat of off,
cia society Here is concentrated the greatest group
of the people who best understand the character,
quality, and purpose of such a contest as this. To
alternate these games between West Point and An
napolis as has been suggested by some, would make
them altogether too local and provincial. To play
them in New York loses their distinctive quality in
the careless cosmopoltanism of that tremendous
population. The National Capital is the one proper
place for staging the great event That is what The
Times said before the decision reached in favor
of the Polo Grounds; and the outcome of the first
contest there has completely vindicated that judg-
ment.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

Mr.. w. Morgan Shuster publishes in the current
Century Magazine study of the Monroe Doctrine
and its bearing the foTe gn relations of the United
States. Mr.. Shuster is eXCel!enty equipped by both
experience and intellectual qualities to consider the
subject in those broader aspects that nowadays
commanding attention such sshas never before been
devoted them. He finds that the doctrine is about
the only foreign policy of this Government that re-
mains fixed and permanent. AS to other affairs our
national attitude changes with the change of Ad-
ninistration. The broad general purpose of holding
the western continent aloof from the colonial enter
prise of the old world is the fixed and permanent
feature of our international program
But we are not consistent in that attitude Mr..
Shuster insists If we to Europe out of the
Americas, we should ourselves keep out of the old
world. That We have not DONE for took the Phil
ippines and now hold them by an anomalous tenure
which thus far has at all clarified the problem of
their ultimate future. Moreover, while Monroeism
assumes purpose of saving the minor Americas to
their own people. those very people construe it as
rather monopolization for ourselves of tine oppor-
tunity to exploit and dominate We took Texas from
Mexico Cuba from Spain, Panama from Colombia.
True, we did not retain Cuba but Mr.. Shuster OBJ
serves, and everybody realizes, that we would have
retained il save for an ouburst of moral enthusiasm
which committed us to the Teller resolution in ad-
of actual occupation of the island AS it was,
we took and held whatever else we could get our
hands on of Spain's.
Out of all this Mr.. Shuster makes right uncom-
Portable case against the good faith and sincerity of
our foreign policy. Indeed it seems that he is rather
unfair to this Government bad is the against
it. rule laid down by Monroe is necessarily mod-
fed with the change of times and circumstances. The
Monroe Doctrine kept France out of Mexico, Britain
out of Venezuela, and in various other places pro-
tected the Latin republics. The very fact that it is
the one overshadowing feature of foreign policy
has been enough to keep Cowdray out of Colombia

She is now at work upon another

near future and which she has Illus

The Kewpies first made their appear

weeklies. Incorporated into an army,
it is their especial delight to descend
upon the bad, the unfortunate or the
deserving and set everything to rights.
Dirty children are made clean; bad
children good; poor little girls and boys
who are deserving are given a wonder

ties are changed into the most charm

attempt -.-
Has Flag In Hair.
There is Wag, the chief, who wears
nothing in all of the world but a tiny
flag stuck in his hair. Afraid-of-his-
Voice is more cautious and wears q
neck, while the carpenter breaks the
back of gossip and fiaunts modesty by
wearing an apron. Not since the days
of the Palmer Cox Brownies has there
been an army as popular. First. Rose
O'Neill drew babies, then Kewpies, and
finally the whole adorable army Just
naturally materialized itself into dolls
through the wishes of children and the
work of the author-sculptor.
At the wish of the buyer, the Kew
pies are costumed according to the
favorite character in the Kewpie bal

on a long string that goes around the
neck-lo! you have regular-add flag
in the hair-the chief-and so on until
the whole army is assembled
In private life, Rose O'Neill is Mrs.
Wilson, and Just at present she Is
trying hard to forget the Kewpies in
order that she may give her undivided
attention to her new novel.
But she may as well try to hide from
paying the wages of sin as to attempt
to escape from a Kewpie. No matter
ho great her fame as an author may
be- no matter how beautifully she may
paint in pen and word. she will live
and owe her everlasting fame to the
Kewpie, God bless him.

Milwaukee. - Milwaukeeans will
not sit idly by with their hands fold
ed while representatives. of other
cities are laboring with the legisla-

having the state fair removed from

regard the fair as fixed institution
for Milwaukee by reason of the large

on any proposition to remove the fair
to any other city Active work to
this end has been begun by the leg

contention will be made that no 9th
