now imposes. Finding ii a political
disadvantage TO retain possession of
Mexico City, Carranza has ordered its
evacuation thereby passing over to
the oX-bandit Zapata the duty of re-
ceiving Mr.. Bryan's remonstrances as
to conditions there.
How can. our government expect to
accomplish anything through long
distance diplomatic negotiations with
an outlaw like Zapata? Bushwhaek-
ers who find it profitable to maintain
anarchy cannot be argued with in the
language of the law of nations Il is
almost as fruitless to try TO argue
in that language with sticklers like
Carranza for all the punctiliO with
which the head of one nation should
address the supposed head Of another
nation. Carranza Is not the head of
the Mexican nation, or any part OF the
Mexican nation except for purposes
of diplomatic controversy He has
power to contract and promise, but
no power to fulfill.

PROMISE vs.. PERFORMANCE.

IN HE platform adopted by the Wilsonized Democracy
at the Baltimore national convention was com.
posed chiefly of promises made TO the to be broken
to the hope" We already have called attention to many
Of those broken promises In view Of financial figures
given out in Washington, desire to call at
tenton to another broken pledge. In the Baltimore
platform find the following:
I'VE denounce the pronigate waste OF the money
wrung from the people by oppressive taxation through
the lavish appropriations of recent Republican Con-
crosses. which have kept high and reduced the
purchasing power of the peoples toll. We demand o
return to that simplicity and economy which BELTS a
democratic government and reduction in the mum.
ber OF useless Offices the salaries OF which drain the
substance OF the people
And in the face of that platform read in tho
Washington dispatches today that Chairman Fitzgerald
chairman of the House Appropriations Committee and
Representative Gillett ranking Republican member OF
that committee agree that the appropriations of the
last session OF Congress totaed $1115I2l 400; that
contracts involving additional appropriations Of $37-
100000 authorized and that treasury deficit is
probable. Mr. Gilett also gives out figures showing
that the total appropriations for the entire Sixty
third Congress s22SlOO OOO sl13OOOOOO great
than that of the siStysocond Congress S177OOO
GOO than the total appropriations of the last Re
publican Congress. Congressman Glctt says that not
sinc9 the Cleveland administration has the United
M aH treasury been in such impoverished condi-
ton as it is at present
We ask all thinking to consider how such a
Congressional record and such condition of the treas
ury square with the promise OF economy made in the
Baltimore platform.

cruiser, Eitel Friedrich, into the port

quest for reasonable time for repairs,

States vessel upon a very doubtful

have already entered upon cXamina-
ton of the case: il is but few days
old, and it may engage the attention
of all our executive departments
before the end OF the present week.
There is scarcely a doubt that how
ever much the British government
may overlook the niceties of interna-
tional law itself, as acknowledged by
Premier Asquith, it will insist upon
all the niceties in the case Of this
vessel, and it will not be slow to find
precedents and quote authorities fol-
visiting condign punishment upon the

International Problems

tFrom the Washington Post)

There is never any doubt Of Great
Britain protecting its own subjects. It
makes law when necessary TO do that
II had law for the hiring of the
Hessians; law for the employment OF
Brandt's indians in the Wyoming mas
sacre: law for the cannon of the mu-
tinous Sepoys; law for the cccupa-
ton of Egypt, law for the reprisals
upon the commerce of neutral ma
tions, not international law. but Brit
tain's law, the code compiled i'm the
magazines of her battleships and cruis-
ers; the statutes defined by the FAM
ing lips Of the great guns Of her
navy. and the interpretations placed
upon them are accepted by all ma
tions today. save Germany, Turkey,
and Austria-Hungary. it would seem
from reports as to the sinking of the
William p. Frye that the case OF the
United States against the German yes-
sci is a much stronger one than any
that the allies can present, and our
people will watch with attention the
course of our administration Of this
affair
If wrong has been done our coun-
trymen. the administration should in
sist it be righted. and if that wrong
is clearly established undoubtedly
Germany must make full reparation
There may be interminable discus
sions as to international law arise

THAW AND HIS ACOUITTAL

III AIRY KENDALL THAw has been acquitted OF
N conspiracy in the matter Of his sensational es-
cape from tho New York State Hospital for the Crml-
nal Insane at Matteawan. The question now before
the court is whether he shall be released returned
TO that asylum Il promises to develop into bitter
legal fight in view of the fact that Thaw taken
from New Hampshire to New York for the express
purpose of standing trial for conspiracy AS that
charge has fallen, his lawyers assert he should be
released at once
Public sympathy is with Thaw. II is recognized that
he committed great crime when he shot and killed
Stanford White the roof of Madison Square Garden;
but the further fact is recognized that when he killed
that he rid society OF a moral monster of the
first magnitude and one who for years had preyed
upon women and girls. including the lght-headed and
morallyweak woman who had become Thaws wife
The feeling seems to be not that Thaw should not
have been punished at all but that he has been pun
ished enough than enough for his tragic act
and that prosecution has been followed by persecu-
tion in his case
It announced recently that Evelyn Nesbit Thaw,
his wife, had said she would testify in his favor II he
needed her. Her since the shooting has been
such miserable and scandaous one that Thaw will
be much better off without either her friendship or
aid She has ruined his life up this time Surely
if he Is TO enjoy freedom now Il should be spoiled
by any reconciliation between him and her That prob
ably would be the worst thing that could befall him.

The Other Side of The Frye IncideHf
(From the New York SUM-

the Frye by the United States Govern
ment did not in any way guar
antee in advance the non-contraband
character of the cargo or render the
vessel immune to search and seizure
by visiting belligerents. That insur-
ance is conditional upon the non-con-
traband character of the cargo. not
determinative of such character. If
the wheat should turn out to have
been intended for military or gov
ernment use and properly TO be re-
garded as conditional contraband
then the policy would be void: that
is all. In deciding whether to pay
or not to pay the loss, therefore. the
United States will have to pass upon
the same question which would have
come before a prize court in the case
of the capture of the Frye by the
Prinz Eitel Friedrich.
1t is not necessary that national
bitterness or patriotic indignation
should enter into this case: much
less that there should be demands
for its solution by extraordinary
methods All things considered il
strikes us that the person most to be
commiserated is the gallant Captain
of the German auxiliary cruiser; the
seadOg whose humane qualities are
attested alike by his prisoners and
by tho photographs of his countc-
nance He sailed n gallant race for
seven months against disaster. and
finally came to grief only through his
own laundering zeal and misconcep-
iion of international law and German
policy. His government will have to
pay the bill pecuniarily but in every
other way he is likely to be the chief
sufferer in consequence of the Incl
dent of January 2S.

The owners Of the William p. Frye
are not warranted in denouncing the
act Of the German commander as
piracy" if that is really their opin-
ion as reported 1t was manifestly
a blunder suggested by overzeal; but
that circumstance does not make pi-
rates of Commander Thierichsen and
his suhordinates on the Prinz Eitel
Friedrich. The German government
is responsible for the sinking of the
ship by order of one of its duly COM
missiOnod officers; and there Is not
the remotest probability that the
German government is seeking or will
seek TO cyade its full responsibility.
Nor is there any sense in the talk
about proceeding to obtain reparatiOn
by libelling the Prinz Eitel Friedrich
now that she is within the jurisdic-
tion of the American courts. An at
tempt tc subject this warship TO civil
process would come TO a speedy and

claim said to have been advanced

namely that when the Government
War Risk Bureau insured the vessel IL
placed the governments official seal
not contraband cargo on the charter
for tho cruise on which the vessel
was about to embark" This is a
