Clark Names Roosevelt.

4 fear the Greeks bearing gifts
The republicans will fear Mr.. Clark
bearing Mr.. Roosevelt. And well
they may. The gift is loaded"
There is little risk in the statement
that Mr.. Clark was not born yester-
day. Nor is there more risk in the
statement that during the greater
part OF his born days he has been
an astute politician. As proof, we
have his high position and his ma
tional influence. Mr.. Clark knows
politics thoroughly.
For two reasons Mr.. Clark is a
Roosevelt boomer He admires the
man; and the democratic party would
greatly benefit from Mr.. Roosevelt S
leadership OF the republicans next
year. Mr.. Clark would then take the
stump, and, while abating none of his
admiration of the man, give thirty
seven eloquent and convincing rea-
sons why Mr.. Roosevelt should not be
elected. He would handle the topic
to the queens taste, and give all other
democratic stumpers pointers for
their addresses.
We need not doubt the accuracy of
Mr. Clark's report of his test of Mr..
Roosevelt's personal popularity. 1t is
common knowledge that that contin-
ues. Many men applaud the mention
OF Mr.. Roosevelt's name in public
speech, or the appearance of his face
on the screen at the movies" who
have no thought of voting for him for
President again.
The same is true of Mr.. Bryan. If
Mr.. Clark had extended his expert
ment he would have found liberal ap-
plause for every adroit mention of
Mr.. Bryan's name-more. probably,
than for that of the President And
yet the country has three times re-
fused to elect Mr.. Bryan President,
and has no thought of seeing him the
democratic candidate next year. But
popular audiences, either at political
meetings or at the movies" like ref
erences to the man who, despite all
sorts of reverses, keeps on keeping
on.
Much as Mr. Clark desires it, and
adroitly is recommending it, Mr.
Rooseveit's nomination by the repub-
licans next year is almost inconceiv-
able. 1t would reopen all the sores
OF 1912. 1t would bring into the cam
paign the third-term issue, which
would completely overshadow the
second-term issue as applied to Mr.
Wilson. 1t would make quotable by
the democrats all the denunciation OF
the republican party by Mr.. Roose-
welt since he left it. They could prove
by the candidate himself that the
party for which he was standing was
not worthy of public confidence, and
should never be intrusted with power
again. In a word, by nominating Mr..
Roosevelt the republicans would make
Mr.. Wilson's reelection absolutely
certain No wonder Mr.. Clark is a
Roosevelt man.

A Trio of New Senators.

Three OF the new democratic scna-
tors-all comparatively young men
have had large experience in public
affairs, and two of them in congress
sioni affairs. This should be of ma
terial help to their party.
In his new Office Mr.. Underwood
will find work on some topics he has
burt recently had in hand as men,
Der OF the House. Two years ago, as
a representative, he confronted the
question Of revenue, and probably
thought when the measure bearing
his name was signed by the Presi-
>-cnt that the question had been dis
posed of for some time. But when
che takes his seat as senator he will
be greeted by it with the old familiar
Here we are again! You can't lose

the chamber. he is likely to be much
consulted when the question is taken
up there. He will be on familiar
ground.

Mr.. Broussard. He has been trans
ferred from the House to the Sem
ate, and as member of the former
body was but recently talking and
voting on the revenue problem. Now
as senator, he will be called upon to
talk and vote on it some more. Like
wise will he have chance to cham
pion again the cause of sugar. which
two years ago was defeated through
the influence of the President. Blu,

The Irresistible Foe.

We labor on with strength and skill
To guard against each human i'll,
And when peril seems at hand
We organized mighty band,
Equipped for fight or else to play,
And bid the peril march away.
We plan protection for the race
To give it health as well as grace.
A proper standard to compel,
We censor foods and drugs as well.
But just the same, Time sounds the
gong,
And then some nlicrobe comes along,
Too small for any eye to see,
And coHquers all in scornful glce.

AMBASSADOR DISMISSED
DR.. Constantin Dumba Was Guilty of
Improperly.

Washington, September 10.-Ambas-
sador Penfield at Vienna has been IN
structed by cable to inform the Aus
tro-Hungarian government that DR..
Constantin Dumba no longer is &C
ceptable as an envoy to the United
States, and to ask for his recall.
Secretary Lansing formally an
~nounced the action tonight. 1t was the
answer of the American government to
Doctor Dumba's explanation Of his
intercepted letter to Vienna outlining
plans for handicapping plants in this
country making war supplies for the
Allies.
Ambassador Penfield was instruct
ed by cable yesterday to deliver the
following note to the foreign office:
Mr.. Constantin Dumba, the Aus
tro -Hungarian ambassador at WASH
ington, has admitted that he proposed
to his government plans to instigate
strikes in American manufacturing
munitions of war. The information
was reported to this government
through a copy of a letter Of the am
bassador to his government. n
bearer was an American citizen named
Archibald, who was travelling under an
American passport. The ambassador
has admitted that he employed Archi-
bald to bear official dispatches from
him to his government.
by reason Of the admitted purpose
and intent of Mr.. Dumba to conspire
o cripple legitimate industries of the
people of the United States and to in
terrupt their legitimate trade, and by
reason of the fragrant violation of di-
plomatic propriety in employing an
American citizen protected by an
American passport as a secret bearer
of official dispatches through the lines
of the enemy Of Austria Hungary. the
president directs me to inform your
eXcellency that Mr.. Dumba is no longer
acceptable to the government OF the
United States as an ambassador OF MS
imperial majesty at Washington.
believing that the imperial and
royal government will realize that the
government of the United States has no
alternative but to request the recall OF
Mr.. Dumba on account Of his improp-
or conduct, the government Of the
United States expresses it's deep regret
that this course has become necessary
and assures the imperial and royal
government hat it sincerely desires to
continue the cordial and friendly rela-
tons which exist between the United
States and Austria Hungary.

PROGRESS OF THE FIGHTING
Situation Along Various Fronts az
Viewed from London.

NtC"Oo
The German crown prince, says a
London cable of yesterday, is making
another determined attempt to break
through the French line in the Ar
gonne, and Berlin declares he has TAX
en- trenches over a front of two kilo-
metres q IA miles) and to a depth
of from 800 to 500 metres, capturing
1000 prisoners, 48 machine guns and
81 mine throwers.
The French admit a partial German
success, but declare that in most In
stances the attackers were thrown
back with heavy losses.
This Is the princes second effort to
win a victory in this region within the
last three months. He apparently Is
as far from his objective this time as
before. Fighting was in progress all
yesterday and throughout the night
and still was going on at last reports.
This doubtless is the German reply
to the artillery bombardment which
the Allies kept up for 10 days, but
which now seems to be dying down
without succeeding infantry ttacks.
south of Arras, bomb throwing seems
to have taken its place.
Along the eastern front things are
moving more slowly again after the
Russian offensive in the southeast in
which the Muscovites claimed a sub
stantial victory had helped to enliven
matters.
From the Gulf Of Riga to olita,
south Of Kovno, the Germans assert,
the situation is unchanged, while their
center from that point to n beyond
the Pripet marshes continues to adj
vance. Thence to the Roumanian
frontier the Russians are still the ag-
gressors; they are endeavoring to
prevent the invasion Of B~essarabia.
On the whole. the Russians appear,
with fresh ammunition supplies, to be
making a better stand. They are aid
ed, doubtless, by the rains. which are
turning the roads, especially In the
region of the Pripet and its aftluents,
into quagmires.
The only news from the Dardanelles
comes from Turkish sources, which
report an artillery action In which the
Allies ships took part.
