ARE the British Orders in Council to stop
A trade In Bibles made in Germany? +?
This is not foolish question, but serious
proposition that is to be put up to Sir Ed
ward Grey, the British Foreign Secretary.
American importers have bought $4,000
worth of Bibles in Germany which they are
trying to get through tee British blockade.
The steamship companies have refused to
carry them, as they fear they will be seized
as contraband and Secretary Bryan has been
asked to intercede with the British Foreign
Office in behalf of the release of the books.
1t is not always wise to indulge in prophecy
but we are inclined to believe that Sir Ed
ward will decide against the American i'm
porters, on the irrelevant ground that owing
to the present state of German civilization
Germany needs not only all the Bibles that
1t produces, but that use could be found for
a large supply from other countries. II Sir
Edward were asked to relax the blockade in
the interest OF cargo of Bibles billed to Ber-
lin he might consent, so prejudiced are the
British at the present time.

goes to the Left-toward the grand old his
toric party of the Republicans, and the cX-
treme Left of Bissoatl and his Socialists
Indeed. as Bertani said, the nation is only
"conditlonally monarchical' Certain parts
of Italy are proudly Republican Umbria,
Rome, Genoa, Lombardy, Tuscany, Vcnetia,
Piedmont are still largely faithful to tho old
Republican tradition handed down from the
mighty founders of modern Italy--those
hardy old Republicans Ma2zin Garibaldl
and Cattaneo.
1t Is to be sure, largely a middle class
party; but that is merely because the ar
tisans and laboring men of the cities and
the fields have gone a step or two further
and are in the Socialist party Are they
anti-monarchical? Both parties are. What
divides them are questions of civic and eco
nomic policy, In fact that is true of all the
various parties that make up the Left-Radl-
calls, Liberals, Republicans, Socialists. They
are divided by ideals Old Crispl saw 1t
clearly when he said that monarchy stood
for union, while republicanlsm meant dlvi-
sion 1t means just that because in the dlvl-
sons and discussions of free men in a re-
public is life and the possibility of growth
not death.

The Pilots and the Port

GOVERNOR BRUMBAUGH has treated
VI the bills increasing the pilotage fees at
this port as the average citizen would have
treated them. lie decided that, whatever
may be the merits of the controversy over
fees. the present is not an opportune time for
increasing the charges OF ships that seek
this port. An attempt is making to increase
the number OF ships coming here, and in the
present state Of business the Governor thinks
that 1t would be unwise to put any obstacle,
even a slight one, in the way of the port
boomers. But he holds out the hope Of
future relief to the pilots.
This is probably as wise q decision as 1t
was possible to make under the circum-
stances. Now, II the Governor will continue
TO show his interest in port development by
using his influence in the General Assembly
districts and from the western part of the
State that their prosperity is wrapped up
with the prosperity of this city, and that
every dollar which they appropriate for port
development here will come back to them n
hundred fold in improved demand for the
things which they produce, he will distinguish
his administration in a way that will make
have preceded it, To give it this distinction
he would not have to indorse the proposition
that In view of the fact that this is a great
inland port the Commonwealth itself should
employ body of pilots to bring all ocean
going ships up the Delaware without cost to
the shIpowners ,

81 Deal SQUARE"

THIS was the motto of Chicago butcher
Awhen he started in business years ago He
died the other day, and it is the motto of
his will. He proved that he dealt square" by
leaving to his divorced wife all but the
amount legally due his second wife as her
dover. He said that the first wife helped
him make his fortune, and that she was en-
titled to 1t when he was gone.
He was right. No disagreement between
them which led to their separation deprived
her OF her moral claim to the estate which
had been accumulated with her assistance.
The case might have been different If she
had been merely a social butterfly spend
ing his money for her own pleasure. But
she seems TO have been thrifty woman.

A Sad Disagreement Among Friends

THE ORDER IN COUNCIL
Varied Comment on Great Britain's Recent
Sea Order, Which Raises Old Questions
and New


From the Boston Transcript.
The order in council was nothing but a
proclamation and the Importance the public
seems to attach to the document would better
be transferred to the policy it expresses,
The net result OF the correspondence is not
wholly unfavorable to the United States. The
Allies agree to limit the operation of what they
for the first time calling BLOCKADE"
to European waters including the Mediter-
ranean That is a concession won by the United
States which had protested against the as
sumption of claim to overhaul off our own
coast vessels bound to or from Germany. The
Allies pledge themselves not to indulge in the
practice which is known "hoverlng," which
has for its purpose the interceptlon of vessels
just outside the maritime league In winning
this admission the United States has won
much, even If 1t got more than that to
which 1t was entitled Here is at least some
abatement OF the Allies arrogance, and as our
Government by means considers the cor
respondence ended It may gain some other
points before the exchange OF views Is COM
pleted.

From the springasld Republican.

AS for Britain, reply its side was
made almost superhuous by the order in council,
for which the German war zone decree gave
excuse, and which obliterates at a stroke most
of tho matters with which the identic note sent
by the United States had dealt OF more lasting
interest are the points raised by our Govern
ment in It's note OF inquiry as to the nature OF
the proposed retaliation, nor arc all these points
yet made perfectly clear. As the State Depart
ment pertinently remarks: THE first sentence
claims the right pertaining only to a state or
blockade. The last sentence proposes treatment
Of ship and cargo as II no blockade existed. The
two together present proposed course OF action

From the New Orleans States.

The most critical stage so far as the United
States itself is concerned, has now been reached
in the war, and there ought to be no shadow OF
weakness in the attitude of the Administration
toward It. What the Government must de-
termine is whether it is willing to submit to
chaos in its own business and industrial life
merely because the belligerent nations decree
that world-trade must stop except under the
conditions which they themselves set down.
