STIRRING COMMENT OF STATE
PAPERS.

We give considerable space to the
editorial views of many state publi-
cations, for the purpose of showing
what others think on subjects which
have been handled in these columns.
Our readers will find the same inter.
esting and entertaining:
The Longmont Call, in timely edi.
torial, calls attention to situation
in Kansas City which should give
those people Of Colorado who read and
follow the advice of the Denver Post
a pretty fair line on the general char
acter OF those two sterling patriots
Tammen and Bonfils-who conduct its
destinies. When Col. William r. Mel
son, editor of the Kansas City Star,
died the proprietors of the other pa
pers OF the city, with the single ex-
ception Of the Kansas City Post, show
ed their esteem and respect for the
veteran editor and fighter by the time
nonored method Of turning their COL
umn rules--a trick, which results in
black lines, symbolic of mourning.
Every paper in Kansas City, more
over paid high tribute to Col. Mel
son-again with the single exception
OF the Post. Col. Nelson stood four
square to the world. He was a man
OF strong convictions and of abso-
lutte integrity. 1t is little wonder that
the owners Of the Post saw nothing
In his character which should cause
the Newspaper world to regret his

REMEMBERIN THE MAINE.

. Mrs. Lottie E. Short, mother of
one Of the three Americans who lost
their lives when the oil steamer Gulf
light was torpedoed by German sub
marine, demands that the United
States avenge the death of her son.
She has declared her intentions of
writing to President Wilson and Sec
retary Bryan in which she will de-
mand that the German government
make reparation.
While the plea of one mother, when
millions are involved, is hardly suffi-
cient grounds upon which to make an
imperative demand of Germany, it
ought to be warning to this gov
ernment that the American spirit,
once aroused, is hard thing to sup
press. 1t would seem as if the Am
erican colors are slowly but surely re-
laxing from that firm attitude which
European nations have been accus-
toned to expect of them. Little by
little the powers have been encroach-
ing upon the neutrality of the United
States as if feeling out just how far
they can go before being stopped.
President Wilson should see by this
time that firm" notes to the rulers
at war are not having the desired
effect He ought to be able to fore
see what the effect would have been
in this country had the ulflight been
an American battleship instead of a
merchant vessel There is no doubt
but what the people want peace, but
the danger of another incident like
that of the Maine is too great to be
trifled with.
Uncle Sam almost declared war be-
cause foreign nation refused to sa-
lutte our colors. The stars and stripes
ought ct least to be safe from tor
pedoes in strange waters, says the
Des Moines Capital.

tons will be with foreign nations and
the state of our neutrality. 1t is bare
ly possible that the United Statse
will be absolutely forced into the Eu-
ropean mae1strom in which case the
election will largely hinge on the is
sues then presented. Let US pray
that our president viii be guided. like
Solomon, with an understanding heart
and while being able to command
strict accountability for all outrages
committed by Germany or the allies,
keep out Of the fray. This is not q
war Of conquest between nations and
confined to men under arms, but one
Of butchery of women and children
and non-combatants.
Semi-weekly herald., 1915-05-13

We must all admit that President
Wilson faces serious problem in the
sinking of the Lusitania. 1t is too
much for us and we are going to
back up our president in any demands
he may make. We would not for one
moment object if Germany torpedoed
every allied warship and sent them
to the bottom of the sea, but when
it comes to the sinking of vessels car
rying American citizens, ships not en-
gagged in war, then it is time for Wig
orous action.

WILSON WILL BE RENOMINATED

Announcement is made by those
close to inner administration circles
at Washington that President Wilson
will accept denomination at the
hands Of the national Democratic
convention next year.
There is nothing startling in this
declaration. 1t is in strict accord
with the stern logic of events. To
be sure Mr.. Wilson was nominated
and elected upon platform specifical-
y declaring for the single presiden-
tial term but political parties have ar
easy way of circumventing not only
precedents but pledges if the exigen-
cies of the hour seem to warrant a
different course Of action.
The platform plank to which we re-
fer reads as follows:
"We favor a single presidential
term and to that end urge the adop-
tion of an amendment to the consti-
tuition making the president of the
United States ineligible for reelection
and we pledge the candidate of this
convention to this. principle"
With the Baltimore platform dis
posed of it will be conceded that the
Democratic party could not reason
ably do anything else than nominate
Mr.. Wilson. Mr.. Wilson is a minor
ity president and yet he is unques-
tionably stronger than his party.
There are times when he exhibits an
intense partisanship which his inde-
pendent supporters cannot approve,
but on the other hand he has been
called upon to meet SO many trying
situations and has exemplified in pub
lie and private life so impressively
the ideals which wholesome American
sentiment is wont to cherish that peo-
pie have been more disposed to praise
than censure.
The evidence is very conclusive,
therefore, that Mr.. Wilson is the
strongest candidate which the Demo-
Gratis could name.
1t should be remembered, however,
that while the campaign is one year
away we are living in an era of rapid
ly moving events. Circumstances
might change in very short time SO
as to put the administration to an
entirely new test.
The pet measures of the Wilson ad-
ministration have not yet stood the
test of normal times. A sudden COL
lapse of the European war and & re-
versal of the currents of export and
import trade, would reveal the prac-
tical workings of the new Demo cratic
tariff law in such manner as to call
for speedy verdict from the people.
The last year of the present admin
istration might have far more in
fluential bearing upon the fate Of
President Wilson and the Democratic
party than the entire three years
which preceded it.
Semi-weekly herald., 1915-05-13

The effort constantly being made to
enlarge the presidential cabinet points
to the needs of an expanding nation
and the wonderful diversity of occu-
patton and industry compared with
what existed in the early days of the
republic. Howard Elliott, chairman
of the board of directors of the new
ly organized New York, New Haven
& Hartford Railroad company, is an
earnest advocate of proposal for the
creation of new cabinet official to be
known as secretary of the department
Of transportation. Mr.. Elliott declares
that the transportation business of
the United States is second in i'm
portance only to that of agriculture
in the volume, Importance and rela-
tionship to the general welfare of the
country. In justification Of his posi-
tion Mr.. Elliott points out that, one
Of the most useful officials of the
Canadian government is the minister
of railways and canals. There is much
worth considering in Mr.. Eliott's plea.
The idea will probably some day be
adopted. President Wilson has cab
met Of ten members. Washington had
cabinet of four. Notwithstanding
the Importance Of agriculture there
was no secretary of agriculture in the
cabinet until 1889.

The place symbols the sensible

There is no loneliness like the lone

Statements have been made that
perhaps there is something personal
IN our fight to assist the committee
appointed to investigate the Denver
Post. Such is farthest from the case.
There is absolutely nothing personal
in our position. The Denver Post is
in no sense of the word a rival of
the News, either in advertising, cir
culation or influence and we are not
egotistieal enough to even suggest
that we are rivals of the Post. The
influence of the Post in this section
of the state is very little. Its influ-
ence outside of Denver is of small
concern. 1t has a demoralizing influ-
ence in Denver, and that sort of an
influence is an indirect detriment to
the state. That is why we are making
the fight for the committee. The Post
represents an element in journalism
that has long since passed into obliv-
ion. 1t represents the time when un-
scrupulous men, men without princi-
pie, purchased newspapers for the
purpose of blackmailing public Off
cials and business men. 1t represents
that class of journalism that has de-
parted from the publicity life of Colo-
rado, with the exception of itself. The
newspapers of this state are high
class, broadminded institutions. The
Post is the only one that attempts to
dictate and that ruins if it can, when
it is not allowed to dictate. The twen-
tieth general assembly was composed
Of men from outside the city of Dem
yer, who live in a different atmo-
sphere from that which surrounds the
Denver Post. They live in an atmo-
sphere of self esteem and independ-
nee. When the Post undertook to Gre
ate an atmosphere of corruption it fell
down. The men composing that as
sembly knew the Post had nothing on
them, so they could act Independent,
no difference what threats were made
against them. Perhaps the next leg
islature will not be composed of men
so fortunately situated. There might
be a few who the Post could black
mail and control. Certain it is that
unless it is the influence which is ex-
ercises is driven from the state, there
will be some succeeding assembly that
will not be as strong as the last one
For this reason the investigating COM
mittee should be successful in its
work. We know that the papers of
the state are taking the same posi-
tion taken by the News. This speaks
volumes for the integrity and high
purpose of the press of Colorado. 1t
should be lantern of hope to the
state officials. They should realize
that from now on they need have no
fear if they will do their duty, for
Irrespective of what methods may be
employed by the Denver Post to con-
tlol them, the people of the state will
be with them. No stream can rise
above its source. No paper can sue
cessfully seek higher level than the
moral plane adopted by its owners.
If public officials would only remem-
ber this, the influence of that paper
would long since have passed into OBJ
livion.-Grand Junction News.
