WASHINGTON LETTER
(Fr0m our Regular Correspondent

MR.. BRYAN'S PROTEGES:-F
men have entered upon the duties OF
Secretary of State with so many politi-
cal obligations as did Mr.. Bryan and
no Secretary of State has ever repaid
his obligations by the appointment to
desirable office of so many of his pro-
te9es. The Assistant Secretary of
State, John e. Osborne, is not only a
protege of Mr.. Bryan's, but was
appointed to that office primarily to
look after Mr. Bryan's political
interests. Mr.. Bryan's son is a U. S.
District Attorney and his son-in-law
holds a well-compensatcd office under
the Government. His former Secre-
tary, Robert F. Rose, is a Foreign
Trade Adviser and the other trade
adviser is William B. Fleming, who
.endeared himself to Mr. Bryan by
being The only man ever elected to the
bench in Louisville on the "16 to L"
ticket. Ex-Governor John Lind is q
close friend of Mr.. Bryan and there
are host of others throughout the
Service and the diplomat
ic corps. Should the new Secretary of
State be actuated by determination
to fill these various offices with his |
own friends there would be such IL |
sweeping out of Bryanites that the |
State Department would hardly know
itself

In the West.

Ciricillo's Italian Band was on the
Pacific coast last season, it will be re-
called, and it's popularity then was so
marked that every Chautauqua wanted
it returned the present summer. One
of the cities visited year ago was
Wenatchee, Wash, and the Daily
World in speaking of the concert said:
Boom. Like the crack of q twelve
inch gun was the crash of the first note
sounded by Ciricilo's Italian Band at
the Chautauqua tent last night. The
audience of nearly 1000 was startled
and did not relax during the two hour
concert. 1t was a remarkable event.
"Ciricillo is different from what the
advance notices indicated. In no re-
spect does he resemble Creatore or Fee
rullo, the fire eating directors to whom
he has been compared. He is more like
Sorentino of the Banda Rosa, possess
ing all the gracefulness of that master,
but far more inspiring. He is not a
gymnast, nor does he ape the hypnotic
Svengali. casting a spell over his mu
sicians like tribe Of Trilbys. He ap-
pears unconscious of his own personal
ity, as though lifted out of himself and
the material world. He seems to be
floating upon the surface Of vast
ocean of harmony. pushed hither and
yon by the pillows Of massive sound.

do, reaching naturally the climaxes
when the waves break. the awful din
and apparent confusion creating a fear
that he might be submerged, but al
WAYS extricating himself from the tur-
moil with grace and mastery"
Two concerts will be given at the
Chautauuua here by Ciricillo's Band.

Dumb
Merchants

1t might well be said that ''there
are none so dumb as they who
WILL not speak,"
There are merchants who would
consider themselves sOrely afflict-
ed if they could not talk, yet who
wiIlfully and deliberately place
themselves in the silent ranks of
the n0n-advertisers.
In the modern business world the
n-adyertiser is like the unfOr-
fortunate mute; but with this
added handbags:
His failure to utilize this
UONcIlul uOucIu
publicity-is a reflection ON
his courage and intelligence.
His voluntary silence = his
failure to tell his story to
the WOrld-encOurag belief
that his story will not stand
scrutiny.
For merchants proposition
must have substantial merit if it
is to be advertised successfully
in The Star-MirrOr. 1t is there
subjected to the censorship of
both the Star Mirror and the Star
Mirrors highly intelligent body of
readers, trained to demand sim
cerity and cleanliness in adyer-
Using.
The Star-MirrOr readers know
that Star-MirrOr advertisers are
the livest most progressive, most
responsible of all those seeking
their patronage.

Certified Cargoes.

A very happy solution of the diff
culties involved in the British French
embargo upon neutral cargoes which
may be of contraband nature is offered
In the suggestion that the United
States certify all cargoes leaving
American ports for Europe. Such
certificates, based upon a physical ex-
animation of the cargo. as 1t is slowed,
by a representative of this government
or upon an affidavit Of the shipper,
would stand as an official invoice and
guarantee. 1t would not involve a de-
termination by the United States that
the cargo is not contraband. actual or
conditional. A ship carrying a cargo
so certified might be stopped at sea
by a belligerent vessel and boarded for
purpose Of search, in accordance with
the right that this government has
formally acknowledged. The presenta-
ton of the American official certificate
respecting the character and destina-
tion of the cargo would doubtless suf-
hce to satisfy the boarding officer at
least as to the nature of the contents.
Seizure or further detention would
then depend upon the question Of con-
traband and destination. This deter
mination would be greatly simplified

An Anti-Wilson Movement.

The New York Evening Post has in
formation from this town that a move
ment is on foot within the democratic
party to deny Mr.. Wilson renomina-
ton This appears in the Posts story:
ut is noteworthy that while the re-
publican leaders are busy rebuilding
their party for the coming conflict,
with an occasional thrust at the ad-
rnif1istration to keep up the interest,
factionalists within the democratic
ranks are engaged in trying to tear
down the structure they have erected.
"The friends of the President beileVe
that the enemies of the administration
have shown their hand too early, too
boldly and with too little reason to
warrant extraordinary notlce at tniS
time. little later they probably VIII
be dealt with at first hand py the
President himself
The next eighteen months are in the
lap of the gods. There may appear at
the end of that time political situa-
tion so radically different from the
present one that new leaders in both par
ties may be necessary. and be chosen.
But, today. everything points to Mr..
Wilson among democrats. On the rec
ord up to this time. and on that which
seems likely to follow if nothing alb
normal develops, the democrats. If
be able to elect anybody. A movement
strong enough to dethrone Mr.. Wilson
would dethrone the party-"knock it.,
in his own phrase, into a cooked hat"
1t is true-and Mr.. Wilson himself
knows it-he is unpopular in certain
states and with a number of democratic
leaders. Louisiana resents his attitude
on sugar Other southern states resent
= 10
New York, New Jersey, Illinois and
Missouri there is raucous grumbling
about patronage.
For time Mr.. Wilson was repre-
sented as Indifferent about the matter;
as feeling a sense of security in the
fact that his party could not slaughter
him without at the same time COM
mitting suicide. But his taking to the
stump, and the announcement that he
will speak to the people often this
year, suggest that he will take no
chances, but will exercise the eternal
vigilance which is the price of Office as
well as of liberty.
The unfriendliness in the eastern
and middle states is probably of more
concern to Mr.. Wilson than that in the
southern. All that the south can do is
to "cuss the court" She has chained
herself to the democratic chariot, and
must follow wherever and by whom it
Is driven. But in the east and in the
middle territory there is independence !;
and now and then it flashes an ef-
'fective revolt against a leadership it
does not like.
Speaking of the anti-Wilson men, the
Evening Posts correspondent says: "a
little later. they probably will be dealt
with at first hand by the President
himself" That has 4 schoolroom tang
to 1t. One can almost hear the swish
of the birch Mr.. Wilson knows how to
deal with the unruly; and If he begins
in this business in the fashion with
which he is most familiar, we shall see
some truly lively politics.
