Copper Basin coultry, that was being
loaded for market In the shipment
we're several hundred pounds of cop
per matte that was dug from the bot
torn of the old smelter that operated

Of rs miles and is rich enough to net

A MAN TO ADMIRE.

It Is not surprising that the Ger
mans feel impelled TO express their
admiration for President Wilson. The
allies and everybody else viii be do
/ ing the same thing before this war IS
over.
Acceptance by Germany of the prir-
ciples in under-sea warfare upon
which Wilson has insisted from the
first is a diplomatic victory more sig
nifcant than any blood bought trj-
umph effected by either side since tina
war began. Tt marks the recognition
OF certain rights for humanity. con
summation that assuredly has been
wanting as a result of any clash Of
arms on land or sea during the lasc
year.
Had the United States yielded the
principle of international warfare
which aims TO protect non-com-
batants travelling the seas the
bars would have been thrown down
to every barbarity which modern ma
rine equipment might make possible.
Once International law were disre-
garded in any respect and the whole
fabric. none too strong at best. would
have crumhled. President Wilson
stood firm not only for the United
States, but for humanity and he has
won the day BY diplomacy he has
carried a point that it IS doubtful if
this country, even if Ieagued with all
the other nations fighting Germany,
could have sustained by force of arms,
and certainly not without expenditure
of thousands Of lives and of vast
treasure.
we must not. however. assume that
Germany has yielded simply for the
sake Of humanity. nor is it likely that
she did so because she feared the
armed forces that we might be able
to send against her by sea or land. 1t
was the prestige of America and its
vast industrial and commercial re
sources. together with the moral ef-
feet that the i'll win Of this govern
ment would certainly have throughout
the world that gave Germany cause
and which furnished the backing that
President Wilson needed to make his
diplomacy effective
Whatever the reason for German
compliance however, the important
thing is that the principle at stake has
been recognized and the way made
easier for future diplomatic triumphs
in the same direction

The man. who was young and well

THE CRITIC DTSARMED

to say that if the party in Germany
headed by Admiral Won Ttrpitz had
prevailed we should have had Wa
instead Of an amicable arrangement
facing US
Results count, and in this case the
president has all the results on his
side. Il is useless for his critics to
point to the consequences on the other
side of the probabilities. They did
not happen. Whatever wisdom there
was in opposition to him is discomft-
ed by the result It may have been
wisdom, but it is proved fruitless.
The presidents attitude undoubted-
" conformed TO the average Amerl-
cans idea OF national Importance, and
the result comedies with that esti-
mate We do not know what consid-
erations moved Germany They may
have been considerations OF expedi-
ency or humanity They may repre-
sent the triumph of diplomatic GeTi
many over militant Germany. What
ever they represent in Germany, thay
stand In the United States for the
clean cut triumph of American princi-
pies against great odds.
The critics of Mr. Wilson's scheme
merely bow to and acclaim the fact
that he has arrived at the desired end
without use Of the methods which
they thought necessary. He has avoid
ed the ultimate. although he used the
ultimatum.
The result was the test. He met that
test The method is no longer Of any
Importance,
