that MIR. Wilson is minority President lie
polled fewer votes in 1912 than MIR. Bryan did IN
1908 or in 1900 The combined Taft and Roose-
Welt vote in 1912 exceeded Mr.. Wilson's by l3lS,-
$50. The Democratic party is no stronger to-day
than it was in 1912. Its only chance of success
lies in maintenance of the breach between the
Republicans and the Progrcssivcs.
That breach is rapidly closing. Mr.. Wilson
himself has done more than any other person to
close it. Self-preservation is the first law oil poll

Presidents policies are willing to forget the dii-
ferences of 1912 and to reunite for the purpose oil

revelation is in itself worth 100000 new votes to

An Easy Part of Prison Reform.

II is rather staggering list OF qualifications
which the Prison Association insists the new war
den of Sing Sing should possess He should be
IAN efficient manager good psychologist a
good social worker" good director and dis
ciplinarian." good financial manager and
should have knowledge of architecture santa
ton. agriculture dairying and forestry All these
matters enter into the routine of prison life over
which the warden, if he amounts to anything IS
the director and guiding influence.
There is one thing the new warden should not
be. and this is quite as important as all the others
put together-he should not be political heller,
appointed because of political influence. war
den may call on the state architect for advice
about sanitation and repairs and the prison d-
rector of industries for suggestions about the
running of the prison manufactures. But he
should not be one who would call on the boss for
directions about prison favOrs and prison graft
New York State is neglectful of its prisons in
that it does not appropriate money enough to
have some of them clean and sanitary. it does
not put an end to conditions which degrade and
brutalize convicts, sending old ones out into the
world confirmed criminals and educating young
ones into expert offenders against society But
recent exposures at Sing Sing have aroused pub
lie sentiment to point where it demands at least
that no more politicians be put where they can
exploit cOnvcts and the public alike by the mis-
use Of their power. prison reform" is bound to
be a long, slow task.

Running an army on coldly scientific lines in a
democracy is not proving sinecure for Lord
Kitchener. The secrecy with which he has en-
veloped the line of battle has caused many jour
nalistic heart-burnings in Great Britain. Now
comes the case of the Canadians to stir more
groans from the critics.
These sons Of empire were almost Struggled
into England. They landed at Plymouth without
band to greet them for the simple reason that
no one knew they were at hand. From military
point of view the Kitchener veil of mystery was
a great success. The chance of German inter
ference with the transports was greatly lessened.
But from popular point Of view this method left
much to be desired. Here was a mother country
anxious to make fuss this help from her
children in the West; and before any one could
stir the trick was turned and the Canadians had
been hurried off to military camps, nobody knew
exactly where.
The call of the press now is that these coonials
be marched through London before they leave for
the front, and great welcome will undoubtedly
be Forthcoming if Lord Kitchener can see his way
to this weakening Of military rigor But will he?
Why trumpet to the Germans that here come the
Canadians? The demand is an excellent illus
tration of the continuing problem that faces the
British government, the problem of squaring mill
tary efficiency with the mental processes and GOV
crnmental methods of democracy.

entitled THE Country Has Made an
End of Wilson and Wisconsin,
As a character sketch it struck mr.

am not the only one unfavorably i'm
pressed by Nr. Wilson's snug self
complaceucy and his utterly indefensi-
bic usurpation Of legislative power,
and that, TOO. by a minority President
As my wife often remarks, Mr.. Vii
sons attitude constantly reminds her
o. the attitude OF the ostrich which
buried It's head in the sand and faucicd
itself quite concealed. Your cartoons
on Mr. Wilson have clipped and pre-
served. They are certainly worthy OF
it. X. y. Il.
