He was beginning TO see things.
No sooner had he reached New

and Mexico. His statement was near

United States would have 10 eXpend.

British ambassador at Washington.
He declared il was neither authentic
nor authorized. and we may accept as
much OF that declaration as we care
to- Il probably was not authorized,
but we have the testimony of four
reputable newspaper men that it was
authentic.

a neutral nation. At the same time
these claims will be finally adjusted.
The replies were among the most
dignified ana high minded utterances
10 which the president has given eX-
preston and must have deeply inn
pressed those to whom they were ad-
dressed with the absolute absence Of
bias and prejudice on the part of the
American government. Incidentally
the people of the United states We're
given an object lesson in reticence
on the subject of rights and wrongs
Of the European conflict.
What the president said as to the
final adjustment of the charges pre-
ferred by the two belligerents was
not the least impressive portion Of
his reply TO the Belgian commission
ers. THE nations of the world,
said the president, have fortunately,
by agreement. made plan for such
reckoning and settlement. What
such a plan cannot compass, the
opinion of mankind the final arbiter
Of all such matters, will supply" The
verdict Of universal opinion will carry
a penalty greater than any constituted
court Of arbitration can infiict. The
one will be in adverse sentiment and
prejudice. the other in money.
1t may be presumed, however, that
the chief purpose of the Belgian and
German governments was to get their
charges of the violations of the laws
of humanity and the rules of war be-
fore the American people in an Off
ciai and credible form and to create
sympathy and sentiment in their
favor. To the extent of the publicity
they were successful.

BETTER DAYS FOR RUSSIANS.

i n
There is every indication that at
the close of the present war, Russia
will be a rejuvenated and a renovated
nation. There is a bigger story in
Russia today than the story of armies
and battles. 1t is the story of a people
coming into their own. creeping out
from under a pail of gloom and dis
trust which has enveloped them for
centuries.
A change in fundamental principles
of government is being made. A united
Russia. united for the first time, is
responding to an appeal to race. The
appeal has been answered by every
peasant and noble from the Baltic sea
to the Pacific ocean.
A new spirit Of nationalism is
emerging from the chaos which has
envelOped the countries since the
japanese war. This spirit is to place
Russia hencefOrth among the progress
sive nations of the world. The Poles
and the Jews look forward 10 right
treatment. and it will be accorded
them. The car will not break his
royal word. If he did, his house would
fall about his ears.
For many years Russia has not at
tracted any world-sympathy 1t has
always held the Slavic menace and Its
treatment of the common people has
been such as TO merit rebuke from
civilization. Now there is a promise
of something better. BY all rights
Russia should be in the very forefront
OF progressive civilization. Her peo-
pie are progressive. Under proper
government they should make rapid
strides within the next few years.

The election of a democrat as gov
ernOr of Maine yesterday by one OF the
largest pluralities ever received by
candidate for that office can be inter
pretated as a ringing endorsement OF
what the party at Washington has
sought to do for the peace and pros
perity of the people of this country.
When a president and his party mas
achieved results which size large and
which have all the marks of good and
efficient government the manner IN
which the people voice their approval
is by electing representatives OF the
party to further assist in such govern
ment or by maintaining in office those
public servants who have been gov
erned by a purpose for duty and high
regard for party pledges. The cleo
ton of democratic governor or
Maine is nothing short of a tribute TO
