The Bull Moose Burial.

Itappears to have been national affair
the burial of the Bull Moose. The
third party was foredoomed to failure by
the falseness of its foundations. 1t was
born of a personal quarrel to serve a
personality 1t came into being not as
the result of demand for new party,
but as weapon of peeved protest against
the Republicans for their refusal to over
throw the rules of the national conven-
ton under which Mr.. Roosevelt had been
nominated in 1904 in order to accomplish
his nomination for third term in 1912.
The popularity of his personality enabled
him in the latter year to 60 before the
country with the appearance of griev-
ence, and for that year only to throw the
Republican party into the third place.

"THE WEAKNESS OF THE GERMAN
MACHINE."

| Efficiency! 1t is most alluring word.
The whole world has been made little
mad by it, as if great deeds could be
done by mouthing syllables. Men as we'll
as nations have been ruined by the fetish
of name. 1t is the device of the mod
ern gods, whom they would first destroy
they hypnotize with pet phrase.
For years we have been told of the
perfection of the German military ma
chine, and that in two words tells both
its strength and weakness. The German
army was military machine" but an
army is something more than machine.
An army consists of three parts men,
material, and brains, and the first two
are valueless without the last; and the
German military system made brains
subordinate to the machine. The rapid
ity with which Germany modified and
brought her soldiers to the colors was a
triumph of the machine; the failure of
her plans in the field shows her military
chiefs relied too much on the machine
and attached too little Importance to the
human element.
l was in Berlin few years ago and
remarked to friend, who had lived there
a long time, that one instinclively felt
Berlin was we'll governed; it was ap-
parent even to casual visitor that the
municipal officials knew their business
and were on their job. "Berlin is strik-
ing illustration of German system and
German slavishness to rules and regula-
tions," he replied. Between certain
hours on certain days in the week Inter
den Linden must be .watered, and if at
that time it is raining cats and dogs you
will see the watering carts stolidly plod-
ding up and down and adding their little
contribution to the torrent. To the Ger
man an order is an order, and If it runs
foul of common sense, so much the worse
for common sense. In an English or
American city foreman or gang-boss
acting on his own initiative would keep
the watering carts in the stable. In
Berlin, l suppose, nothing less than an
edict of the Emperor could suspend an
ordnance duly made and provided

SUFFRAGE WINS IN TWO STATES.
Montana and Nevada, Perhaps Nebraska

CHICAGO, Nov. 5. Woman suffrage
leaders rejoiced tonight when belated re-
turns indicated that votes for women
had been apparently granted in two of
the seven States voting on the question
in Tuesdays election. with a third State
in doubt. First returns had indicated
refusal of the franchise to women in all
seven States concerned.
Montana and Nevada, according to the
latest returns, granted votes to women,
while Nebraska showed such a small
vote against the approval that the wom-
en- claimed the State. Missouri, Ohio
and North and South Dakota refused
to grant equal suffrage, the majority
against granting the franchise to women
increasing with the size Of the popula-
ton concerned.
In Montana, where workers OF the
American Women Suffrage Association
made heroic efforts to win the ballot, the
vote was SO close that the official count
will be necessary to decide the outcome,
but the women have slight lead on in
complete returns.
In Nevada, which seems won to the
cause of equal suffrage, los precincts
out of 240 gave 3,619 votes for women
suffrage and 2508 against.
The effect of women's votes on pro-
hibition in Tuesdays election Indicated
that women do not unanimously oppose
saloons. The ratio of the woman vote
on the subject in California and Wash
ington has not been tabulated yet. Both
these States voted for the first time on
the proposition to GUST saloons, and in
both the vote in favor of retaining sa-
looms was large.
The California proposed amendment
would have prohibited the manufacture
of wines, an important industry in the
State. The severeness of the proposed
law is given by leaders of the antisaloon
league as a possible reason for the de-
feat of the me asure.
The women in California probably aid
ed in passing a law to close all resorts
with women inmates. Early returns in
dictated that segregated vice quarters in
California would be voted out.
In Illinois, the proportion of female to
male voters in the Democratic, Republi-
can and Progressive parties was about
the same. The women political leaders
were mostly identified with the Progress
sve party. Figures in many precincts
showed, however, that the percentage OF
women to men was larger in the Demo-
cratic party than in the Progressive.
