The Home Folks.

Secretary Tumulty's letter to
Sheriff kinkead does not affect the
Wilson boom in the slightest degree.
All il does is to reveal the thorough
LOYALTY OF the Jersey democrats to
their chief, and most excellent taste
on his part.
Seeing democrats in other states
getting into the game early. the Jer-
sey men are impatient to JON the
procession. They have nobody IN
mind but Mr.. Wilson. and want to
make formal proclamation OF the
fact. 1t is a most creditable feeling.
Mr.. Wilson. however. sure OF his
ground both as to the home folks and
other folks. wants the outsiders to
keep the matter in hand now that
thew have taken it in hand. 1t Will
be more seernly and more agreeable
to him to have the indors ement OF his
course in the White House-tak:ns
the form OF renomination-come from
democrats not allied to him by the
ties of statehood He wants his
neighbors to help receive with him
when the democrats from north.
south. east and west come forward
next year bearing assurances OF con-
tinued distinguished considerations
He is, and has a right to be, sure
they are coming.
The case is so plain it seems quite
unnecessary to argue it. Mr., Wilson
is his party's only possible candidate.
If. for any reason. he were to de-
cline denomination he would throw
the party into the utmost confusion,
and send it to certain defeat. Moth
ing could save it.
And equally fatal woul, be the
party's refusal to renominate him.
That would be a confession of failure
from which there could be no recov-
cry Dire confusion would result
from that. No man-and it has some
strong men-put up in Mr.. Wilson's
elected. He would represent in the
campaign both factionism and con-
fessed failure; and, in the language
OF the late John S. Barbour of Vir-
ginia, the party would march
through slaughter house to an open
grave"
Nobody today may draw with sure
ty the lines of next years contest.
Chaos is at present ruling the world,
and it is anybody's guess what the
chaos will produce. The presidency
may be fought for on domestic is
sues. or on foreign issues, or on a
combination OF both. But, whatever
the issues, Mr.. Wilson will be the
democracy's logical and inevitable
representative, unless it decides to
throw logic overheard with the rest
and go to its doom in a mad fit of
fury.

The Austrian Ambassador.

If, as reported, Ambassador Dumba
declared to Secretary Lansing, in the
interview at the State Department
yesterday, that in his efforts to EN-
barrass the munitions makers of this
country who are under contract to
supply war materials to the allies he
was acting under instructions from
Vienna, the situation becomes much
more grave. Such instructions would
constitute a serious international Of
Tense, and the grievance. of the
United States would be not against
DR.. Dumba but against the Austrian
government.
This whole matter depends upon
the Interpretation that is to be put
upon the letter that was intercepted
in London from DR.. Dunba to the
Austrian foreign Office. In that let
ter. according to the text just pub
lished. DR.. Dumba wrote:
Yesterday evening Consul Cen
eral Won Nuber received the inclosed
aide memoir from the chief editor of
the locally known paper Szabadsag
New York;. after previous con-
ference with him and in pursuance OF
his proposals to arrange for strikes
in the Bethlehem Schwab steel and
munitions war factory. and also in
the middle west. 1t is my
impression that we can disorganlze
and hold up for months, if not en-
tirely prevent. the manufacture OF
munitions in Bethlehem and the mid
die west. which, in the opinion of the
German military attache, is of great
importance and amply outweighs the
expenditure of money involved"
This does not specifically state that
DR.. Dumba has himself engaged in a
strike-promoting propaganda or that
any one acting under his orders has
done so. 1t indicates that DR.. Dumba
was aware of the consideration of a
plan, if not its practice, to start such
strikes. His use of the word 1--WE"
is, however, significant of participa-
ton. The letter was dated August
20, presumably on the eve OF the sail
ing of his chosen messenger. That
no strikes had actually been provided
for is indicated by the phrase. But
even if strikes do not come off it is
probable that we should extort, I'M
der the pressure of the crisis, more
favorable conditions of labor for our
poor. down-trodden fellow-country-
men,"
In order to declare the Austrian am
bassador persona non grata it is nee
essary that his offense against the
diplomatic proprieties should be spe-
cihc and we'll established. knowl-
edge of what was being undertaken
by others does not necessarily con-
stitute such an offense. But if, as
the ambassador is reported to have
told Secretary Lansing, he was act
ing in this matter under orders from
Vienna the matter becomes gravely
potential of an issue with Austria
which may find expression in terms
more severe than the dismissal from
this capital of the Austrian ambas-
sador.

The Two Bryaus.

Said Mr.. Bryan in his speech be-
fore the peace convention at Chi
cago Monday;
We must not be too hasty to criti-
else those in official positions, who,
as ] know from experience. are often
misrepresented and misunderstood"
Mr.. Bryan now knows how it is
himself. As The Star suggested the
other day, he has discovered the diff
ference between criticising and be-
ing criticised. As critic he ran an
uninterrupted course of sixteen years.
and made it lively for all the targets
at which he aimed during that long
period. Republicanswere always pre-
ferred. but he sometimes took a

did he usually rang the bell.
Then came the TIME when as an Off

squads himself. His experience last

1t was enough. He suffered and
learned much, and now, as we see,
has grown philosophical and chart

who when doing his best should not
be shot.
