The Diplomatic Center.

The ambassadors to the United States
from Germany, Great Britain and
France returned yesterday from Eu-
rope. and the embassies of those coun-
tries in this city are now to be re-
opened. AS the capital Of the largest
and most important of the neutral
nations Washington will be the I'M
questioned diplomatic center of the
world during the months to come,
while the armies of the kaiser and
his enemies are fighting. Here must
concentrate most of the international
business of all the powers, especially as
the United States is acting as repre-
sentative of the various belligerent
countries at the capitals where they
are respectively without ENJOYS during
the war.
Yesterday an appeal went to Con-
gress from the State Department for
additional funds for the American en-
bassies, now intrusted with the inter
ests of other nations, and immediate
action is to be expected, especially as
the clerical help allotments to the en-
bassies are none too large in ordinary
In connection with this requisition
for an emergency appropriation a list
of the extraordinary duties of the
American embassies was published,
showing the remarkable concentration
of diplomatic responsibility upon the
United States. Thus, at present the
American ambassador at London has,
in addition to his ordinary duties, much
enlarged and rendered far more diff
cult by the war, the task of represent
ing Germany and Austria at the court
of st. James. The American ambas-
sador at Berlin must safeguard the
interests of France, England, Russia
and Japan. in addition to those of this
country. The American ambassador at
Vienna represents, besides the United
States, England, France and Russia.
Ambassador Herrick at Paris is in
trusted with the interests of Germany
and Austria, and likewise Charge Will
son at ST. Petersburg, while Ambassa-
dor Guthrie at Tokyo has been intrust-
ed with German representation.
Never before has such responsibility
been placed upon the foreign ennis
saries of single nation, and this
responsibility will probably be extend
ed as other powers are drawn into
the war. The intrusting of these
interests to the United States is a
high compliment to this country and
which the United States has adopted
and must scrupulously maintain
throughout the conflict.

Made in America"
From the Philadelphia Telegraph.

Evidence accumulates rapidly that the
war in Europe is going to teach Amer
leans how to do many things for them
selves which they have hitherto depend
ed upon foreigners to do for them. That
will be one Of the big benefits conferred
upon the people of this country by the
great struggle. II adequately improved
by the people Of the United States it will
rank first among the indirect conse-
quences of the war.

THE WATER SITUATION.

To have plenty of the finest water that flows from the ground is bless ing we do not thoroughly appreciate until we get away from home. Lit tie Rock just now is in the distress ing throes of water famine. The board of health has issued warning against using the city water for drink ing purposes, and there is no other supply except from wells, which is taking as long a chance as drinking the city water of that city. Hot Springs is supplying much of the need there by the shipment of the spring waters, and a big industry is being built up in this line. With the sale of Hot Springs cold waters in Little Rock at moderate rates, the situation is much relieved, and there is no reason why that business should not be held even when the city water famine of Little Rock IS strengthened out.

TO CORRECT ERROR.

In presenting the fact that Senator James r. Clark had withdrawn from the civil sundry bill by request the item carrying s20.0OO as an approprl- ation for improving the Hot Springs free bath house." the mistaken inn precision has been created that Sen ator Clarke is antagonistic to Hot Springs.
 Of course here in Hot Springs we understand the situation, and know that Senator Clarke asked this item to be stricken out because he had joined with the people here in a de- mand for new free bath house on a different site, instead of the repair of the old bath house.
 We take pleasure in making as far as we are enabled, the correction of the mistaken impression.
