NEWFOUNDLAND SUFFERERS.

There need be no long deliber$tion over the possibilities of the appeal which is being made for assistance in behalf of the Newfoundland homes which have been left destitute by the recent disasters, being worthy. Those who perished must have suffered greatly, but the greatest sufferers will be those who survive The afflicted households are those of fishermen who at the proper season are engaged in their own interests, but during the se- were cold engaged in the hazardous business of sealing for the remuner- alton which was to be obtained
 With none too liberal yearly earn ings at the best these people have now been reduced from fair assurance of the necessities to practically nothing. A knowledge of the conditions of those people and their humble existence such as has often been told by Wilfred T. irenfell from the experiences he has had in his work in that region, only emphasizes the unmistakable misery and suffering which must follow the loss of the heads of the families, who became separated from or went down in the sealing vessels.
 There is no reason to believe but what there will be a generous re- sponse to the appeals for assistance and with the customary alacrity with which this country gives heed to the call for help whenever and wherever it is needed, it can be expected to do it's part in contributing to the relief of the stricken Newfoundland homes Not only sorrow, but want exists in that northern territory. It is a situation which is unmistakably sad, and needs the helpful hand of sympathetic hu- rnaDitV

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.

While the result of the election in the seventh congressional district of New Jersey, w here the republican can- didate was elected by an overwhelu- ing vote despite the part which Pres ident Wilson had taken in behalf of the democratic candidate upon whose election or defeat rested approval or d1sapproval of the present administra- tion, was a blow to. the democratic hopes, it furnished another lesson rel ative to party conditions which can not pass unnoticed. It was an effective lesson on what can be accomplish ed by a united republican party and an indication of the need of Just such action being taken
 It was through the standing togeth- CT of the republican forces in this re- publican district, following the con- trfbution which it had previously made to the democratic forces in congress, that victory was secured At the same time in the congressional contest in Massachusetts interest ebbed and Walkover was provided forS the demo- cratic candidate because of the per- sistence in division. With a recog- milton of the, need of bettering condi- tions and the ending of democratic rule and policies one of the weakest arguments lies in urging the continued division of the republican party The New Jersey district has shown what can be accomplished by getting to- gether. The Massachusetts district Fe- vea1s the effect of holding apart The former means republican success safe and sound legislation, while the de- crying of democratic mistakes, but still following a hopeless movement, simply insures the continuance of pres ent conditions. It ought to inspire careful thought.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Nurse and Guide Ideals.

The longest life lived has never reached finality in its desires. To some this is the glory of our lives, a con stant leading forward, a proof of our infinite capacities; to others it is the delusion and the limitation that cast them into pessimism. It certainly seems that we are capable of more joy than is ever ours; it hardly seems that we are capable of deeper sorrow
 It is clear that our ideals need very careful nursing and guiding. They may become an inspiration and a disappointment and weakness. even to despair We may idealize love as fully as we please, but perhaps we have no right to idealize the loved one too com pletely. It may be claiming the inn possible and therefore counting dis aster. Above all, we must not expect more from another than we are able to give ourselves; in hard contact with reality we may have to be content with less.
 The one whom we love may not have our capacity for loving, may not even desire it, may be satisfied with some thing far less. claiming that we also should be satisfied. There are persons who cherish the highest ideal. of love and whose life is constant hunger for it, who never come near it's fulfilling They have to be content with few fallen crumbs where others are feast ing. Ii brave and wise, they can carry their ideal to a spiritual attainment; but many of us are neither brave nor wise,
 If we do what we can with the. fitA tie thatis given to us. the second best or the third best, time may come when we shall be filled in richer meas eure; and in any case our possession shall be according to our gifts.

REFORMING CONVENTION RULES.

The republican national committee has called for early action upon the proposed plan of representation in the national convention in accordance with ideas which, have been advanced for meeting that needed reform The change in the basis of representation is one which should be settled without contributing to the benefit or detri- ment of the candidates for the presi- dency and by such a determination through state conventions before the first of the year, that very point will be entirely overcome. There is also re- ferred to the state convention for rat ifcation the rule permitting every state to Select delegates in accordance with the laws existing in the respee- tive states
 The course which is being pursued in this reformation cannot fail to inn press. The changes are those which have been demanded previously, but which have been made the occasion for a struggle in the convention as a means Of breaking down prescribed rules. By undertaking the desired objects during an off year the unjust features are overcome and it will be possible to get action upon the merits of the rules themselves without being encountered with other influences.
 The needed changes have received timely attention and by referring them to the different state conventions, in stead of endeavoring to put them into operation by committee action alone, a participation in the enactment of the new rules is afforded the states which is preferable to like results which might be obtained in national conven-

NEW CHIEF OF STAFF.

In view of the importance which al ways attaches to the head of the army there is naturally much interest iii the change which is to be made therein according to the announcement that General William w. Wotherspoon is 2 to succeed General Leonard Wood. There is no question but what the present chief of staff has been most capable official and has done much for the benefit of the service. Itsis a case, however, of one fine military record succeeding another with the prospects, that the same general plan of army organization which has been urged by General Wood will be carried forward
 It was forty years ago that Gen. eral Wotherspoon began as a line of ficer and since that time hes has had extensive and varied army experience He was for two periods attached to the general staff and was also head of the war college. This, with the fact that the general scheme for army organi- zation was developed and perfected in the war college and that he has served as assistant to the office which he will assume, doesn't indicate that he will attempt any radical changes. On the other hand the time which he can expect to serve does not encour- age anything but the carrying out of the present policy. By reason of his age General Wotherspoon must re-
 tire in November. His tenure. of office will be sufficient to obtain for him the promotion and permit him to be of much aid to his assistant who in the general course of events can be eX- pected to become his successor. It is too early to judge what this may involve in the way of changes, but it is evident that whoever holds the of fee of chief of staff he cannot fail to recognize the necessity of the greatest efficiency in the army.

VILLA AND THE sPANIARps.

Just how much this country will be- come involved in the action which is being taken by the constiutionalists of Mexico in forcing out of the coun- try the Spanish residents, many of whom are merchants and people of wealth. is matter of speculation at present. It is fully apparent that there is no love lost between the rebels and the Sraniards, but while their lives are being spared they are being driven from home and possessions in a man. ner which would naturally awaken protest. It is also with marked dis elimination that such orders are being enforced against them, since they are the only foreigners who are rnolested.
 General Villa is unquestienabiy ex- ercising his position for future benefits hoth through the financial aid which. may result therefrom and for the ef feet which, tt will have upon the aid being received by EaeFsa from the Spanish. Thus does this ceHntry face the difficulty of obtaining for these people the same treatment which is accorded other foreigners, Americans included. In view of the rights to
