Mr.. Wilson at Home.

A staff correspondent writing from
New Jersey gave The Star yesterday
some interesting information bear
ing upon politics in that state. There
is no enthusiasm for Mr.. Wilson in
those democratic circles where none
existed three years ago. The Presl-
dent has not grown upon the men
he had at that time antagonized.
They have organized no opposition
to him respecting next year. They
may not oppose him for renomina-
ton. But absence OF opposition on
their part will not necessarily sig
nifty an approval by them of his
course in Office. or expectation of his
reelection. They will simply bow
to the action of the national conven-
ton, and philosophically await re-
suits.
There is warrant for believing that
this is true elsewhere No anti-Wil-
son movement appears anywhere. In
MANY states the Presidents renomi-
nation is taken for granted. His
friends will hear to nothing else; his
democratic critics are offering no
name as a substitute for his.
Let US suppose, then, the national
convention Wilson gathering. But
one name is presented, and that
name vigorously applauded. Demo-
Gratis from north, south, east and
west join in praising the administra-
ton and asking for its Endorsement
at the polls.
After the conventions public
"tumult and shouting" must come a
private entertainment of what really
is what and who is who. How many
votes can be delivered on election
day? Is the machinery in shape for
bringing out the party's full
strength. How do the bosses really
feel? If not good, what is necessary
to make them feel good, and to hus-
tie?
Here will come the bosses chance.
They are very practical men. They
often PROFOUND the question, What
is there in this for me and mine?"
And, for that matter, so do many men
who are not bosses. 1t is a very
human inquiry, in and outside of poll
tics.
The managers of Mr.. Wilson's sec
ond campaign, therefore, will have to
play practical politics with practical
men. And particularly will they be
obliged to remember that the oppo-
sition has overcome some of the
difficulties under which it labored in
1912. Then the democracy won by
a sort OF default The republicans di-
vided and destroyed their own
chances. Instructed by that folly, the
republicans are reuniting, and at
present promise to come to the
scratch next year in much OF their
old formation. 1t will take a tre-
mendous effort to convert the
democracy from minority to a ma
jority party.

troops at Avlona. the principal sea-
port on the Adriatic, opposite Brin-
dist, while troops have advanced into
Albania from Montenegro, Serbia
and Greece. All three of these trans
Adriatic powers would be glad to
gain a part of the Albanian spoils in
the event of partition. Greece, not
yet participant in the great war, is
expected to disavow the acts of the
irregular bands that have gone from
her soil into Albania later. From
Rome have come expressions of in
dignation at the Serbian and Monte
negrin advances into Albania, but
there is no reason to believe that
serious friction will result on that
score, inasmuch as there is an
intimate personal relationship be-
tween the Italian and Montenegrin
crowns, while Serbia is not in
position to ALLEVIATE Italian SYM
pathy and support at this critical
uncture. The participation of Greece
in the war, which is expected
to follow the. reorganization of
parliament in a few weeks, will
doubtless be based upon certain de-
fined conditions respecting later ter
ritoria1 accessions in which the south
ern part of Albania may figure. Italy,
it is understood, is determined, in the
event of the defeat of the Teutonic
allies. to hold fast to that portion
of Albania which lies opposite the
heel of the Italian peninsula, thus
giving her command of both shores
Of the strait of Otranto, the mouth
of the Adriatic. 1t was one of Aus
tria's ambitions in creating the king
dom OF Albania to exert a dominant
influence at that particular point
across the narrow water from Italy.

No Lack.

If you're looking for something to
do, son,
Don't think that your chance is
small.
Don't wander away and get blue,
son,
For there's labor that suits us all.
If you're built for fight, there's a
chance in sight
In the lands that are far away.
If for peace you yearn, you can take
your turn
In the eloquent display.
You can march to the battle line, son.
You can teach if you've learned
Alright.
You can toll where the grain grows
fine, son,
And study your book by night.
There are tasks that wait till the hour
grows late
And never a task that's through.
Don't doubt and sigh as the hours
go by;
There's plenty for you to do.

world weren't too busy making things
hotter than-well, plenty hot. for
war purposes, it would be at Prof.

covery of almost absolute zero.
Why? Because it is highly posi-
BILE that with extreme cold things can

or we can do things more cheaply. For

sort which Chinese factories can

a million spindles. Limited quantities

one might say. Does it? See the
other side. China raised in 1912 about
800, 900 tons Of native cotton, only
fraction Of the amount required by
its own factories. The highest yield
per acre is said TO have been 176
pounds, about one-third Of a bale.
But this low yield was due TO sew
eral causes; poor seed, poorer cult
walton. and still poorer agricultural
implements. Even at that, consider
ing the cheapness of labor, one-third
OF a bale per acre is profitable. De-
termined effort is being made to bring
about intelligent cultivation and gen
eral use Of improved implements. Bet
ter seed is being procured.
Is China adapted to the raising Of
cotton? Admirably so, inoeed. Ac-
cording to reliable estimates. there is
in China 27,OOO,OOO acres of land
available for cotton culture which. by
use of irrigation. may be increased by
1000. 900 more acres.
The abolition of opium manufac-
ture has turned the attention of the
government and of the Chinese farm
ers TO cotton. AS yet their efforts
have not been highly rewarded but
this new movement looks like real
business.
As Russia with an open Darden-
Giles. menaces our wheat industry. so
does China. in it's re-awakening,
menace our cotton industry.
1t is quite within the range of pos
sibilities that China may yet supply
the whole eastern hemisphere with its
raw cotton. as we'll as the manufac-
tured product. This is not pessimism
but merely looking ahead. Our op-
portunity is now, China's in the flu
