Business of Painting.

The primary business of painting is
to create a beautiful surface, beauti-
fully divided into interesting shapes,
enlivened with noble lines, varied with
lovely and harmonious colors. Its sec
ondary business is to remind the spec.

mired in nature, and to create the il
fusion of truth.-Kenyon Cox in The

No Comfort for RepubIicanism

The New York Times. which is not in sym pathy with progressivism reminds republicans that they have had no cause for the jubilaton in which they have ndulged the result of the Maine election. We do not agree with the Times in a statement that the only reliable strength of pro- gressivism is made up of the socially discontented and that the of it's apparent strength in 1912 consisted of those who would have followed Colonel Roosevelt into any party, and republicans who intended to remain republicans but embraced the opportunity 1912 afforded, to administer a rebuke to their party
 The Times conclusion may be accepted as true that what it calls the real progressive strength is always sufficient defeat the republican party That while the truth, is only part of the truth
 The result in Maine may be attributed in part to little effort having been made by the progresses in the campaign Colonel Roosevelt visited the state and appeared in but few places; it may be attributed in part the apathy which frequently prevails in off-year campaigns and to the fact that in Maine in many other parts of the country which had for years regarded reliably republican, many progressives, formerly republicans felt that without sacrificing party principles they might assist in the election of republicans who not especially ob- Jectionable. They the more inclined to this action by the democratic tariff legislation.
 Tle progressives of Maine had reason to be- ieve that it impossible succeed this year, acting alone, though they had good a chance to succeed as the republicans acting alone. Nor was success to them as imperative as it seemed to be to the republicans
 In many parts of tie country last spring the progressives made splendid showing. They red many municipalities, and in a bye-eiection in Boston congressional district they boiled larger vote than had been cast for MT. Roosevelt in 1912 Another thing in the Maine election, in which pro- gressives find encouragement, is that the progress sive vote in that state this year four times large it in the election year ago.
 The progressive party is not to be compared within other third party with which the Times would compare it. the free soil party the pop ulist party The latter, though strong in certain sections of the country did not possess strength of wide The progressive party is well en- trenched in almost every part of the country. Nor Is the progressive party to be considered being composed of the socially discontented It ganized, it is true, for the mightest protest that went up from the American people, but it quickly passed through the period of protest and entered the stage of aspiration and action.

Americans and the War

That the sympathy of the American people and American newspapers has been with the allies in the present war has been plainly evident but nobody seems to know why. It may be on account of the manner of the beginning of the war; on account of belief that Germany if it did not precipitate the conflict, the and only power that could have averted it.
 The American position has been attributed to American antipathy German militarism so op- posed to our democratic institutions But that ex- planaton is far-feched. Americans have the great est respect and admiration for Germany for it's foremost position in science, art and the manu- factures; because, also Germans constitute after the native American population, the largest part of the American population and of the best parts Americans rule do not care anything about German militarism the German form of govern ment. Not American fifty has the slightest interest in the internal affairs of d foreign nation unless they conducted like those of Turkey have been at times, appal humanity. But after all Americans have rule been against Ger many in the present
 The English since the outbreak of the war have certainly done nothing to hold the sympathy of American newspapers and their readers The British censorship of the intended for Americans has been of the most senseless character as the As sociated Press has frequently pointed out It has Just issued a copy of letter by American Cor respondent to the London Times, complaining that Americans allowed cable news already printed in the English papers after having been of ficialy made public; that they are snubbed by the censor that their matter is unnecessar riIy delayed until 1t is worthless for publication and that it is frequently consigned to the waste paper basket
 The conduct of the British management of the wireless station at Sasconsett, Massachusetts must have further tendency to alienate American sym pathy from the allies. The management flagraptlv violated the neutrality of this country sending mes sages to British warsips and receiving and forward ing orders for supplies from them It not only re- fused to promise that it would desist from these acts, but resisted the establishment of American censorship over it's messages until last Friday our government found it necessary to close the station
