MOVING DAY.

In connection with the receivership
Of Henry SiegeTs looted bank a cur
ious fact has come out in New York.
The receiver has some money for the
5000 depositors but fully half of them
can't be found.
They have moved about from fiat
to fiat or from city to city until their
addresses have been lost.
In Europe it is common for father
and son to rotate for centuries in
possession of one sturdily built home.
In the cities of the United States,
according to the last census. less than
a third of the population own homes.
OF the 81 per cent who are tenants
(twice the percentage of tenancy
which prevails on the farm. though in
both city and country tenancy and
itinerancy are growing) few stay in
one place longer than two or three
years.
Already. in our big cities. one NOV
ing day a year isn't enough. So we
have two. one for the spring fitting
and one for the fall.
Much of the miscellaneous restless
ness of our time is undoubtedly due
to this migratory habit. You can't
work up much real enthusiasm for a
boarding house or for a residence
which some other person owns.
The tramp who in springtime takes
to the ties is brother in kin TO the
fiat dweller. only he moves in lighter
marching order.

CARRANZA'S INADMISSIBLE
DEMANDS.

General CarranZa cut a ridiculous
and sorry figure in his correspondence
with our state department concerning
the exact manner and form TO be OBJ
served in dealing with the constitu-
tionalists" and the improperly of ig-
noring him, the only supreme CHIEF OF
the various revolutionary armies, in
representations relating TO the security
of foreigners. He climbed down
eventually in turgid, stultIloquent
communication, but his absurd claims
gave many a taste of his quality. re
had written himself down a pompOus,
vain. weak figurehead.
What was merely grotesque in con-
nection with a serious but minor and
forgotten incident becomes sinister and
dangerous in a crisis of the first mag
ritude CarranZa'S demand" that
the United States evacuate Vera Cruz
and refrain from occupying any other
Mexican port, and his open threat of
hostilities of a course that means
making common cause with Huerta-
were not things TO be lightly passed
over. The president, of course, prompt
" rejected the silly demands and eX-
plicitly restated his position. Both he
and congress had disclaimed the in
tcntion of waging war against Mexico
or of violating her sovereignty and
controlling her domestic affairs. If
Carranza and Villa and the other
"constitutionalists" had any political
sense, any real ability, they would
have eagerly welcomed the important
disclaimer, the proffer of friendship
and peace TO Mexico, and at least
agreed TO preserve neutrality toward
the contest between the ''usurper" and
"tyrant" on the one hand and the
American government that was taking
steps TO eliminate him and vindicate
it's own honor.
If Carranza. Villa and the rest make
common cause with Huerta the whole
Mexican program will have TO be
changed. but they will he responsible
for the deplorable change. for the eX-
tension of the theater of war and the
abandonment of the policy Of lOcaliz-
ing and limiting the campaign. Are
they aware of the gravity of their at
titude? Are they capable of reflec-
ton, of measuring the consequences of
their folly Chicago Record Herald.

The other lawyer was almost equal
ly insistent that the answer should
be brought out.
So each attorney grouped large
stocks of law books about him and
began to pelt the court with citations.
For nearly four hours they argued
back and forth, digging up one tech
nicality to show why that witness
should or should not answer. At the
end of the afternoon Garrison said he
would take the question under ad-
Visement and let them know in the
morning. But when court opened the
next day the lawyers had brought in
some more weighty authorities. and
the arguments continued for anoth-
er hour. At the end of that time Car
risOn decided in favor of the plain
tiff, holding that the witness should
be permitted to tell what he knew.
The attorney for the plaintiff re-
peated his question:
DO you know anything at all about
the relations between Mrs. Won Doe
and Mr.. Rowe?"
