HUERTA'S OWN ELEC-
TON.

General Huerta seems to have
fooled the correspondents and OBJ
sersers of Mexican affairs. He
pulled off a personally conducted
election in the federal territory yes
terday, and it was confidently an
bounced in advance that he was 60
ing to have one of his military sup
polters chosen President. But he
didn't. He had himself chosen; it is
said that the result was approx
mately unanimous.
Just what the general means by
this performance is rot at all clear.
The performance was a farce. 1t
cannot possibly add any strength to
the feeble grip by which he holds the
reins at Mexico City. 1t will in no
wise mollify the constitutionalists in
their attitude toward him, and it is
much more likely to weaken him by
giving another demonstration of his
cynical disregard for simple decen-
cies.
But the performance does serve
one useful purpose. Coming right on

DRAMA IN ENGLISH
VILLAGES.

The love of the English people for
the drama, and, with it, the love they
have for life in the country, are il
Illustrated in some accounts that are
found in late English newspapers re-
Earding the interesting conditions of
the stage in rural places. Of course,
as with US, the larger towns are reg
a'arly visited by the professional
companies which present the leading
plays of the day. Those towns are
the same as our zone night stands"
although the system of covering
shem is somewhat different from
that which prevails on this side. But
n England, as in the United States,
there are many communities too
mail to attract the travelling organi-
..ations, and to some persons the
rama is scarcely known.
The English villages have begun
( custom, which is spreading rapidly,
# having each its own theatrical
company made up of the villagers
themselves. Portable theaters are
rsed, as they were, indeed, in the
days Of Charles Dickens, who de-
scribes them in one or two of his
ToJvels. The actors, then, however,
'sere professional people, while the
rural companies of the present are
made up of amateurs, who not only
oct but even write their own plays
and prepare their own costumes and
scenery. The plays deal with local
.sgends, old-time customs, far-off
things, and battles of long ago, the
memory of which it is well to keep
in mind. In one of the villages the
local clergyman is active in further
ing the success of these perform
gaces; in another some resident who
loves the part, such as a Miss Con-
stance Smedley, who has won quite
q reputation in the field, carries on
the work.
The little companies play in school
rooms and market houses and SIM
FLAIR places, reminding one of the
earliest days of the English drama,
when the companies acted in the
court yards of the inns. It may be
that Shakespeare himself travelled
with one of those strolling troupes.
At al events, the present method Of
giving thc plays is one that suggests

WILSON AND 1916.

There is no doubt that the feel
ing is gaining ground in Washing
ton that President Wilson inclines
not to be candidate again in 1916.
The fact that his 1912 platform con-
tanned a promise that the party
would not re-elect a President need
not be regarded as important, be-
cause the party could reasonably
claim the right to change its mind
if it liked; the convention of 1916
would decline to be bound by the &C
ton Of the convention of 1912. In
theory, at least, the country's de-
mand upon the party would require
it to change its mind. That would
be the defense for the reversal of
policy, and the cup-of-coffee argu-
ment would be adapted to the re-
cuirements of this situation.
But if the President decides that
he doesn't want to run again, he will
likely have his own way. He has
not shown himself a plant person.
Moreover, a desire on his part to re-
tire would be ardentiy seconded by
various gentlemen inside the party,
inspired by ambition to assume the
succession.
1t would become, at the last, a
question whether the real sentiment
CT his party demanded his candidacy.
Champ Clark long time ago said
that if MIR. Wilson succeeded, he
would be certain of denomination; if
he failed, the nomination would not
be worth another mans having. For
Mr.. Wilson fatty to refuse q renomi-
nation would suggest strongly that
he didn't believe he could be re-elect-
ed; and that would have most de-
pressing effect on Democratic
chances. The result would be, as
Democrats came to realize what a
black eye was being given their pros
poets, that many of them would urge
the President to stand again rather
than thus iniure the party chances
by a raint-blanli :efrsal.
If we were guessing at the Presi-
dents state of mind, we wouli guess
that he doesn't intend to make a
fight for a denomination; that he is
willing to take the denomination if
the party warts him to take il: aud
that the question of whether he
would likely win or lose would Re

THE PORK BARREL.

Those Senators who are girding
up their loins for a fight to defeat
or radically modify the river and
harbor bill will find it not so very
difficult, if they will adopt the right
method.
There is just one way to kill such
measures, and that is to concentrate
attacks on certain peculiarly indie
fensible items, and get those stricken
out. AS soon as enough of these can
be eliminated, it will be discovered
that the bill as a whole is hopelessly
weak. Every member who sees his
own bit of personal pork thrown opt
will develop sudden antagonism to
the measure that remains.
The only way to pass a pork meas
ure is by the cooperation of those
members who participate II its
srovender. No pork barrel would
have a chance to be rolled through
both houses and into the law, unless
st made personal provision for
enough members to insure it a ma
9oIity of the votes in each house.
Cut out the indefensible and ridicu-
lous items that are written in as the
price of particular members sup
port, and thereby cut off the support
Of those men, and it will be discov-
cred that the bill hasn't chance.
In short, it is just a matter of
making enough noise to command
attention to the righteousness and
the wastefulness of the items which
are given as the price of votes. The
river and harbor measure is not 60
ing to be reformed until its true
character is thoroughly exposed and
generally understood by the country.
1t may take two or three exposures
q this sweeping kind to do the bust
ness but they will do it.
