WORLD NEWS
ENGLAND Stands with the u. s.

The British government through
Sir Edward Grey, the British For
eign Secretary. announced its view
in the House Of Parliament that no
immediate action could be taken in
connection with the death OF Ben
ton. Sir Edward Grey pointed out
that the British government re-
served the right TO secure repara-
ton whenever il was able TO do so
in case there was failure TO secure
satisfaction through the efforts OF
the United States government. This
statement lessons the tension that
has existed over this subject.

Wireless Telephone
Marconi has devised transmitter
which renders possible telephone
messages by wireless over a dis
lance of 100 miles. Successful
speech tests have been carried out
between Chelmsford and Bourne
mouth. The first commercial in
stallations on shipboard will be
working within the next few months.
II is expected that a range of two

Pope Gives a Great Bell
A 10000 pound bell, the largest in

Rouen cathedral. II is the gift OF
Pope Plus X, and will be called the
Jeanne d Arc. The hammer for
this bell weighs 5000 pounds.

Judge Gerard the U. S. Ambassa-

readily adapt themselves TO the ar

Mines Running Full Blast

Owing to the open weather many
coal mines in Eastern Kentucky
have been in operation only a few
days out of each week. But during
the past week heavy orders have
come in and the mines are running
from four days to full time. This
has given an impetus to all other
lines of business.

NEWS FROM THE TRIPOD.
"TO SERVE MANKIND"

ITO SERVE MANKIND"
,(From the New York World"
How mean and petty much of the
criticism of the Presidents Mexican
policy seems in the light of the noble
address that he made at the Brooklyn
Navy Yard yesterday In paying his
tribute Of honor to the sailors and ma
rines who died at Vera Cruz!
I'VE have gone down to Mexico"
said Mr.. Wilson. ITO serve mankind.
II we can find out the way" and we
doubt If there is a single human be-
ing in the United States who honestly
believes that the President has any
other purpose.
1t would be 80 easy to play politics
with such a situation. 1t would be SO
easy to lead the Nation into a war Of
aggression, even though, as the Presi-
dent says, "a war of aggression is not
war in which it is a proud thing to
die" 1t would be so easy to play the
/ demagogue and the blatherskits, so
easy to inflame popular sentiment, so
easy to create state of public opinion
in which war would be inevitable.
War administrations are seldom de-
MED the verdict of approval at the
polls That is human nature.
These are issues that rest in the
hands Of the President. Although Con-
gress alone has the constitutional pow.
er to declare war, any President con-
fronted with difficult foreign problem
can easily create conditions that COM
pei war
A less patient President than Mr..
Wilson would long ago have had an
actual state of war In Mexico. A less
conscientious President would have
plunged the country into war as the
easiest solution Of a complicated prob.
lem which had proved too troublesome
to be dealt with by wiser methods. A
cunning and demagogic President
might have invited war as the certain

elections in the fall and securing q
vote of confidence in his Administra-
ton.
Mr.. Wilson has played no selfish
politics with this situation. He has
courted no careless popularity. This
is thing in which motives are Of
paramount Importance, and Mr.. Will
sons motives are in harmony with the
best that is In the life and traditions
Of the American people. A President
whose avowed purpose is Ito serve
mankind" and whose actions all square
with that purpose will never lead this
country far astray.
Mediation may be successful or 1t
may be a failure. War may prove to
be the only solution; but If 80. the
American people will always know that
the hands of the government were
clean and that, thanks to the honesty
the patriotism and the integrity of
Woodrow Wilson, there can be no dot
on the record.
