PRESIDENT WILSON.
From the New York world.) )

(From the New York World.)
 "Fortunately." says the Herald, "wC have at the head of the government al this critical time man in whose calmness and judgment we have as great confidence as we have in his patriotism"
 "Calmness and judgment" Great words, expressing great qualities. Tn the terrible storm of war that has burst over Europe, Americans have new reason to admire the sense and sanity of their own chief magistrate
 Since autocracy deliberately plung ed civilization into blood, we hear nc more sneers at an administration that chose "watchful waiting" in prefer ence to war. We hear no more ex' pressions of contempt for the Presi' dents idealism and for his theories of service. These theories are no longer the academic dreams of the "schoolmaster." In the light of the worldwide catastrophe of the last ten days the most blatant lingo in the United States would not exchange Woodrow Wilson for any European statesman, and the partisan bigots who professed to be ashamed of their country have all been silenced by events.
 It is very fine to prattle about "a vigorous foreign policy" but con science and sincerity and integrity have their place in government des- pite the Metternich legend that still controls European chancelleries. There was plenty of vigorous foreign policy in Berlin. in Vienna and St. Petersburg; but there was none of the good faith and common honesty that have shone through the diplo- macy of Washington. In consequence, all of Europe is directly or indirectly at war, and 1t is only in the United States that the flame of civilization burns steadily and brightly.
 Who doubts that if a man of Wood row Wilson's restraint and tempera- ment had been at the head of the Ger man government this crime of the cen turies would have been averted? Who doubts, either, that if the United States now had a President of the Kaiser's temperament this country would inevitably be drawn into the vortex of war?
 More than maps will be changed by this conflict, and we ourselves will be affected by it in respects that are neither financial nor commercial. New standards of statesmanship will be es- tablished in this country as the Amer ican people contemplate the terrible results of personal government and imperialistic ambitions abroad.
 To the historian of fifty years hence the fact that Woodrow Wilson was President in this crisis may seem no less providentiaI than the fact that Abraham Lincoln was President when ti,e very life of the Union was hang ing in the balance.

NAMES OF CITIES
 AND COUNTRIES

Comment on the change of the name of St Petersburg to Petrograd, up to this time, ignores the fact that thel names by which the cities and even the countries of Europe are known to their own inhabitants usually differ radically from the names given to the same cities aud countries by people speaking a different tongue. None of the countries engaged in the present war is known to the other countries by the name which its own people use.
 Belgium, for example, is, in French La Beigique, and It's capital city is Bruxelles. The Germans call 1t Bel glen. and it's capital Brussel. France, at home. is La France, but in Germany It Is known as Franlueich. and in Italy and Spain 1t is Francia. The Austro-Hungarian monarchy is spoken of in German as osterreich- isch.Ungarische. It's capital city Is, in German, Wien, and in French, Vien' ne. England is known In France as Angleterre, in Italian 1t is Inghelterra, and in Dutch Engeland, while London is known to the French as Londres.
 Germany" is name known only to Englsh.speaking people. That coun. try is known to it's own people as Deutschland, and to the French as Allemagne. The comment on the change of the name of St. Petersburg further ignores the fact that Russians unfamiliar with other languages know nothing of any such country as Rus sia." They call their native land Ros- siya. while the French call 1t RuSsie and the Germans Russland. The capi' taI city of Italia is known at home and also by the Spanish and Portuguese as Roma, while the Germans call it Rom,
 Ancient Hispania is Spain in the United States, but In Madrid it Is Esponolo.
 Perhaps, when the new geographies which will be necessary when the war is over, come out, by common consent it will be provided that the countries of the world and their cities shall be made known thereafter to foreigners by the names given to them by their own inhabitants, instead of having as many different names for each coun' try and for it's leading cities as there are world languages.

LEASING BILL IS
 ( A HoBsoNS CHOICE

*
 SEATTLE, Sept, 12.-"I shall sup. port this Alaska coal leasing bill," Representative Albert Johnson told the House when that measure was under discussion, flor the same reason that the people of Paris ate hores meat dur ing the siege of 1870. They had noth- ing else to eat, and the people of AL aska can expect little else except ex- cept this bill. shall not delay or hinder the bill in any way. shall be inclined to oppose with my vote any and all radical amendments which are offered to it, and I am in hopes that this bill will go over to the other side of this building and meet the bill-S. 4425-reported by Senator Myers with an amendment, and that between the two we will secure bill which will help Alaska in the matter of coal,'- Washington correspondence in Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
