Spoils.

Undoubtedly. Adlai Stevenson's popu-
lsr,ty as politician rested largely on
the record he made in the Post Office
Department as a spokesman. He acted
according to his convictions He thought
that his party friends were entitled as
= reward for party services to the fed
eral patronage in the hour Of victory.
and he did all he could in his place to
carry out that policy. He courted rather
than tried TO dodge criticism on that
score. The louder the protests from the
condemned republicans and their friends
the more vigorously he welded the az
But that was twenty nine years ago
not exactly in its incipiency then. and
among its leaders were men of much
consequence. Still. it was travelling a
hard road. and the future did not look
bright
Moreover, the democracy had been liv.
ing on husks for quarter-century. Not
since Buchanan's day had the party as a
party refreshed itself at the national
table. Men had grown gray working for
democratic success at the polls without
ward. Great numbers, in the language
Of George William Curtis. were very
hungry and very thirsty
Naturally, when Mr.. Stevenson opened
the doors of the Post Office Department
and ad3itted thousands to a, long table

Congress.

Two objections are heard respecting
Letting things go until after the cleo
ton: a. Who is in position to make
promises about the work of the short
session" and 90 who will now accept
promises made as a political maneuver'
AS to question number one, it is plain
that great deal depends on the Novem-
Der result If the administration is in
dorsed. such administration policies as
may be left incomplete now can be COM
pIeted then Mr. Wilson will have even
a stronger hold on Congress then than
he now has The New Leadership will
have been specifically Endorsed. and the
New Leader very greatly encouraged.
But if the result at the polls is against
the democrats: if the figures show only
a small majority for them in the next
House. or. worse still. none at ALL then
everything will be doubtful about the
short session except as to the supply bills.
The New Leadership will have been re-
pudiated and the New Leader shorn OF
much power. The legislative branch of
the government will become again an in
dividual in its own right. Senators and
representatives will express, and main
tain, opinions of their OWE.
As to question number two, it may be
suggested that it is going to be difficult
for democratic spellbinders next fall to
make any promises of their own, or quote
promises made by others in the party 8
name, with a straight face. In lively
remembrance of the fate of the Baltimore
platform. the public will be "leary" on
that point. Many voters will be openly
incredulous even unexpectedly so.
Others will want bond security Only
a few will give their faith again in the
spirit of hope on, hope ever"
The proposition for leaving the trust
question open until after November-the
Senate taking the papers until next
winter-is founded on the hope that the
business world can in that way be molli-
fed. Business. big and little. has been
harried so severely and for 50 long time
it not only needs, but demands, rest.
IT regards itself as the sport of poll
ticians, many of whom do not know the
a. b. C. of the situation or the subject.
Much is involved in the solution of the
question. Both business and politics have
q stake in the game; and the President
is the umpire. ne is responsible for the
taking up of trusts by Congress at this
session: and a single word from him
other word; and Congress, at his bidding.
is expected to fight it out on his line if it
takes all summer.

Carranza and the Mediation.

The A. B. c. mediators at Niagara
Falls in receipt of Carranza s communi-
cation announcing the appointment of
three delegates to the conference, have
CURLY reminded the first chief of the
constitutionalists that he has ignored the
terms of their invitation to participate
in the mediation regarding an armistice.
In other words. notice is served upon him
that there can be no participation in the
peace negotiations without an armistice,
and it now remains to be seen whether
the revolutionists will be halted pending
the adjustment which is now in slow
progress.
This position of the mediators is en-
tirely logical Mediation is obviously i'm
possible in the face of hostilities. and
there can be no effective negotiations SO
long as the reyolutionists are in the field
operating actively against the federal
forces and seeking to extend their terri
tory. Against the refusal of the media
tors to admit the constitutionalists with
out an armistice the United States can
enter no reasonable protest.
Meantime, a report from Mexico indi-
Gates that perhaps an armistice would
be practically forced upon Carranza
owing to the failure of his attack upon
Zacatecas, undertaken against Villas
advice and led by Natera, who was
placed in virtually superior position to
villa himself. The constitutionalist army
suffered there, 1t is reported. its most
serious reverse since the insyrrection
started, and some time must elapse be
fore the attack can be renewed with
chances of success. Possibly Carranza
will make virtue of necessity and &C
cede to the terms of the mediators.
Throughout these preliminaries Car
rama has played plain waiting game
respecting the mediation. His delay In
replying to the invitation to send dele
gates was palpably designed to gain
time pending the arrival of the Antilla's
cargo of ammunition. As expected the
announcement of the appointment OF
delegates has followed closely upon the
landing of those supplies. From day to
day, however. the strain of waiting has
been 50 severe as to threaten an absolute
failure of the mediation.
Now the difficulty at Niagara Falls
centers upon the deadlock between the
American and Huerta delegates regard
ing the personnel of the provisional gov
eminent to be established in Mexico. No
progress is reported toward an agree
ment and indications are that the media
tors are growing FESTIVE. AS long as
they remain in session, however. hope
continues that a way may be finally
found out of the trouble.

The New York.Pretoria Collision.

The collision in fog at sea between the
steamers Pretoria and New York. fortu-
nately without disastrous results, is dis
quieting indication that there Is lack Of
safeguarding precaution on the part of ves-
sci commanders even in the open ocean,
where there is an abundance of room.
According to the story told by the COM
n.ander of the New York, he had been
running at very low speed, estimated
AT about four and half knots an hour.
when at :; o'clock in the morning the fog
shut in so thickly that he stopped his
vessel and began to sound signals. Pres
emily the range lights of the Pretoria
appeared and her fog signals were heard.
The New York was put under reverse
speed ana had just got under way when

Art and Reality,

This world Of ours would be just like
wondrous story book.
With sprites and elves and COLLINS fit

And now and then an angel all effulgent

The men would all be handsome, with
athletic grace endowed.
or else they'd be SO comic that they'd
make you laugh aloud.
And women, with their ankles posed with
elegance and care.
Would poise their hands and float like
gracious spirits through the air.
But as we trudge we feel ourselves too
stout or else too slim,
And those who might be laughaole are
only sad and grim.
We would not be 80 often moved to MUIR

Why Have Coroners?

From the New York Times.
What good is a coroner rms frequent
" RECURRING question is again justified by
the news that wound has been found
in the skull of Ella Winter. the Baltimore
girl whose body was found IN Curtis bay
a week ago last Thursday. The coroner
inquest had dismissed the case with a
verdict Of death by drowning. Whether
the girl was murdered or not. the cir
cumstances of her death were such as to
call for careful investigation. The coro-
ner's notion of such an investigation
seems to have been characteristic OF his
tribe, Was she found in the water? Yes
Very well, then she was drowned At
some time. perhaps. we shall become
sensible enough to abolish an ONCE which
once served a useful purpose but has De-
come an anachronism.

Worlds Greatest Publicity Expert.

From the BIrm1ngham Ledger.
There seems to be no doubt that Col
Roosevelt is getting ready to run for
President again. This is indicated by
two things: First the colonel is getting
FESTIVE out of high official position in
which alone he enjoys a field of activi-
ties and opportunities that enable
him to revel In the limelight of publicity
every day in the week and every hour in
the day. There is no other American in
or out Of public life who possesses more
colonel He literally gorged himself with
it for years 1t was a mania with him.
Ever since he left high official position
offering large opportunities to satisfy
this craving he has been FESTIVE and dis
satisfied to get back. 1t is a necessary
food with him.
