pdPLoMATIc INDIscRETIoNs.

When a. diplomat so far forgets himseM as to voice his personal sen timents in 8 mannef which involves Enother government, it is time that he should recognize his unfitness for the trust Imposed in him and with draw. or his government should promptly replace him. Just at the present tfnne intentional indiscretfons are numerous and the prompt action which has been taken by the govern rnent ccncerning them is to be com 1nended Without proper considera- tfon of the position which they oc- cupy in respect to their governments, 4. Rustem Bey and Baron Schoen have made statements which if they were from private individuals might pass with little attention, but coming from the recognized representatives of for eign governments, at a time when they are possible of much ulisconstruction, they cannot be allowed to go unno- ticed.
 Ti1e Turkish ambassadors determi- nation to leave in a fortnight indicates his recognition of an indiscretion. The denial by the German ambassador of tho baron's words is an endeavor to b1ake amends. but it does not jibe Hith the baron's subsequent admis- Sion Of the accuracy of his reported Interview. Even though repudiated by the German government it discloses a dangerous tendency from that em- hassy which would be displeasing to this government at any time, but is particularly so now in view of it's neu- tra1 attitude.
 Even though Baron Schoen has just returned from Japan there is no req Son to believe l1is biased idea of the dapanese feeling represents the true attitude towards this government, but the ease with which a mountain can be made out of a mo1ehill calls for
