THE UNFRAMED VOLUNTEER.

From the Chicago News.
Americas unframed volunteer. who
stands in the popular mind as the
uncomfortable defender of his cOun-
try. received some hard knocks at
the meeting of the National Defense
Convention Just brought 10 a close
in Chicago. 1t would be we'll if the
people of the nation should be
brought to realize some of the cold
facts in connection with this popular
IDOLS performances in the wars OF
the past.
School histories OF the United
States gloss over our inglorious cpl
sodes. The victory of Jackson's
squirrel hunters over Pakenham at
New Orleans is painted in colors
brilliant enough to distract attention
from the ruins that a handful of
! British troops made of Washington.
Bunker Hill and Yorktown furnish
a glorious beginning and a glorious
( final chapter for the Revolutionary
War. but the historians leave out too
much of the intervening tale. II the
textbooks would tell the whole story
of the part that our unframed levies
lhave played in wars Of the past the
widespread Indifference to adequate
military training would soon be
1 overcome.
The gap between the armed citizen
and the trained soldier is wider today
/ thar il ever was before. When one
realizes that only 16,500 British re-
| guiars were pitted against the 5OO,-
/ 0o0 Americans in arms in the War
OF 1912 it is painful to think what
might be the result if q hostile army
OF really formidable size should land
on these shores today.

Because the President Says So.

lfTOm the brooklyn tdSlt.l
With what may be called his GUS
tomary infexibility. the President
will push his merchant marine bill
And with even more than his Gus
tomary warmth, not to say heat, he
assails those who are opposing It,.
He asks who commissioned them 10
stand in the way. Charging them with
defying the nation. he warns them
that their credentials will be badly
discredited, If they succeed. Con-
temptuously he dismisses them as
the self-styled friends of business.
Answers to this vigorous lombard
ment will not long be delayed. Part
of the answer will or should be that
Senators who object TO the bill hold
unimpeachable credentials or COM
missions. Another part of it will or
should be that their right to believe
the merchant marine measure to be
harmful, to be detrimental to the in
terests OF the country. and to say so,
Is as indisputable as that OF the
President to fight for its passage. IL
does not follow that Government own
ership and operation is wise because
the President declares it to be so.

Editorial Opinion
WHEN BRITAIN WAS
LAST INVADED.
on Transcript

From the Boston Transcript
Discussion of the possibility OF an
invasion of the British Isles is bring
ing out a good deal of history that
is irrelevant to conditions of the pre-
sent day. and some history that is
not historical. What happened in the
Middle Ages does not count, nor Will
German strategists lay much weight
OF the success Of William of Orange
in landing an army in England in
1858, for he did so with the conniv-
ance of some leading British poll
ticians and not a few officers of the
British army and navy, who were in
the secret But when an English
writer of considerable standing tells
us that there has been no foreign
force landed in Great Britain since
the abortive French expedition OF
1897 he is wrong. That was the so
called "Fishguard invasion" which
was led by a Colonel Tate, an Ameri-
can in the French service. It was
soon over and caused more laughter
than bloodshed. The next year,
however. General Humbert landed in
Ireland with about 1900 French vet
erans under his orders. For a few
weeks Humbert made things pretty
lively in parts of Ireland, and small
as was his force, he defeated a lar
ger body of Loyalists, and though
ultimately compelled to surrender
| gave British public confidence a tre-
mendous shock. Humbert has an
interest for Americans, too, because,
coming to this country some years
arer his Irish exploit, he cast his
lot with us and was one of Andrew
Jackson's most efficient lieutenants
at the battle Of New Orleans. He
/ had the experience, therefore Of be-
ing present at two defeats of the
British, at one of which he comman-
/ ded in person.

sTRIkEs A SYMPATHETIC CHORD

q ENATOR BORAiS arraignment of the partisan
y nature Of President Wilson's Indianapolis speech
and Of the Wilson administration it's
ineficiency has been received with sympathy and ap
proyal by the great mass Of the American people. 1t
both timely and forceful especially in view Of the
open declaration made by Senator Williams. of Misss-
sppi that president Wilson will be renominated and
Reelected"
We have no doubt that the people of the United
states will be pleased to have the national Democ-
racy renominate President Wilson. They eager
an opportunity go the polls and show by their
votes what they think OF him and his Congress and
policies Nothing better could befall the Republi-
party than for the Democratic party to place
President Wilson in the field for reelection in 1916
With his the Democratic Presidential candidate the
Republican nomination would be equivalent cleo
ton. One Of the worst msfortunes that could come
the Republican party would be for the Democratic
party to fail to nominate Mr.. Wilson in 1916
Says the Dover state News a Democratic newspaper
in Kent county: "There is one thing we like about
Governor Miller No one can accuse him of being an
Intellectual snob He is not of those creatures you
meet occasionally who superior air of
knowledge and then talks TO you about something you
arr unable to understand and something you sure
speaker does not understand. We always turn
from Governor Miller whether we see him read him
with the that thoroughly understand the
man We will say for Governor Miller that he is not
an Intellectual snob.' What mpelled the News TO
think that Miller needed al its hands edi-
iofial verdict that he is an intellectual snob.
WLcre and when has such indictment been returned
against him he should require editorial trial and
acluittal? So far we aware one, the Re
publican the Democratic side has suggested even
remotely that the governor is intellectual snob
hence the observation made by the News is wholly
rIcaed for either a defense or laudation.

And Preparedness for War the
Sole Topic Of Discussion
in the Congress.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. Feb. 23.--War
and preparedness for war were the;
sole topics of discussion Monday in
Congress, the Senate debating the
army bill and the House working on
appropriations for coast Notifications.
Chairman Chamberlain Of the Senate
military committee g;lve notice that
Legislation for an army Of 100000
men and q reserve system would be
taken up at the next session.
With reorganization along these
lines" said he. "the United States
will be in position to meet all dangers
within or without the nation."
I Senator Snopt today introduced an
amendment for fifty submarines ct
seagoing type and twenty-five smaller
ones. For the first year. it would app
propriate $4,000. 700.
The European war has demonstrate
ed beyond any question" said Sena-
tor Smoot introducing his amend
ment, that submarines are invalua-
hle for defense of coast cities and
coast lines. That is that sort OF de-
Tense wo want in this country more
than anything else"
Mexico figured much in the Senate
debate. Senator Norris suggested
that If General Villa knew how un-
prepared the United States was for
war he would take the country in
two weeks. Senator Fall declared a
situation had devolved in Merico SIM
liar to that as a result OF which the
French established Macmillan on a
throne. Should the United States be
drawn into the European war, he de-
clared, Mexico would furnish an i'm
base from which it could be
attacked.

RAGING
is Not Mentioned in the Talbot
Anti Gambling Bill as
Passed by Legislature.

CHARLESTON. Feb. 2S.-While not
prepared to give an official opinion as
to whether the Talbot anti gambling
bill applies to pools onsrace tracks. At
torney General A. "a. Lilly is inclined
to believe, after a cursory examina-
ton Of the bill. that pools ON race
tracks would not come within the
view of the act.
The bill reads: III any person at
any place, public or private, bet or
wage money or other things OF val,
uc on any game OF chance. etc, he
shall be fined, !" etc. The bill is gem
orally held to. apply to poker games
and other games Of cards. Until an
official opinion is rendered, however.
there will be some doubt as to Just
what the bill does mean.
