The Ancona Barbarism

The sinking of the steamer Ancona
in the Mediterranean by submarine
flying the Austrian flag presents
one of the most shocking features
OF the war, and if the reports now be-
ing received are true an atrocity even
greater than that of the Lusitania S
destruction without warning blackens
the record of the government respon-
siblc There is some conflict in the
necessarily fragmentary statements
Of officers and surviving passengers
with reference to the question of
warning. Some declare that the An
coma was sunk without warning, while
others assert that she was in flight
for two or more hours before she
was overhauled by the submarine,
and that time was then given for the
debarkation of the ships company.
But apparently all reports agree that,
warned or not, the Ancona was treat
ed with singular disregard for the
preservation OF lie. Shots, it is
stated, were fired around her by the
submarine alter she had halted, and
while the debarkation was in prog
ress, possibly for the purpose of
Fastening the unloading of the ship,
but actually increasing the panic, and,
according to some statements, direct
ly causing losses Of life.
If the worst that is told in the
accounts OF survivors Is true the COM
mander Of the submarine, after over
hauling the ship, did his utmost to
cause terrifying decentralization
among the passengers, most of whom
were women and children. The COM
mander OF the Ancona may have been
culpable in fleeing after receiving a
command to halt, but this course did
not justify the wanton shelling of the
ship after she had been stopped and
when she lay at the mercy of the sub
marine. Had she been then torpe-
doed without further ado the cruelty
of her destruction would not have
been as great as her continued she'll
ing without effect. The whole affair
smacks strongly of barbarism, of an
utter disregard OF innocent life.
Technically Austria does not stand
bound by any German agreement to
conduct submarine warfare humane
ly. Morally, SO far as this govern
ment is involved through the de-
struction or the endangering of
American lives, the United States has
a cause of grave complaint against
the government at Vienna, if the sub
marine was Austrian. If. as some in
dications hint, she was d German
craft flying Austrian colors, the case
is indeed one of the greatest serious
ness.

presidential nomination. She gave
her support several times to John
Sherman without result, and three
years ago failed at Baltimore with
Judson Harmon.
But although she failed with Mr..
Sherman. she won in 1880 with an
other son, who had gone to the con-
vention in Mr.. Sherman's behalf. Gen.
Garfield undoubtedly did his best for
his chief, and made so attractive an
appearance he drew the prize him
self. When the convention decided
that it did not want Mr.. Sherman,
it took long, strong look at the
man in charge of the Sherman boom,
and nominated him. And made no
mistake. Gen. Garfield proved to be
a winning candidate at time when
republican prospects were none too
bright.
There is not the slightest ground
to question the perfect sincerity OF
these men who will have charge OF
Mr.. Burton's interests at the nominst-
ing convention. Their loyalty is as
sunablc from their high positions
and influence on affairs. But if the
convention should decide against Mr.
Burton. and yet feel disposed to go to
Ohio for the candidate, it will have
in plain view a trio OF good men. all
OF whom have shown strength at
home. and any one of whom could
carry the state next year.

Ohio.

In Ohio polite. is we'll understood,
and, as rule, we'll played. On the
republican side it is being we'll played
now.
Until recently, the names of four
Buckeyes were mentioned in connec-
ton with the republican nomination
for President-Mr Burton, Gov. Will
lis, Senator Harding and former Am
bassador Herrick. Today there is
but one. Mr.. Burton at home mas a
clea, field. The other. have taken
themselves out Of the equation, and
will try 10 go to the national conven-
ton as delegates in Mr.. Burton's in
terest As all three are capable
politicians, they should be of great
help to their friend and neighbor.
1t may be said without disparage-
ment TO anybody that the choice was
we'll made. All things consider ed, Mr..
Burton is the most widely known and
iavorably considered Ohio republican
in action today. Hi. record in the
Senate is still fresh, and has been
much applauded. As member of that
body he measured we'll up to the ira
ditions OF the state. That he would
meet ali the requirements of the
presidency cannot be doubted. He is
an able, honest and experienced
statesman.
Ohio, however, even when united in
behalf of favorite son, has not al
ways been able to land" him for a

Taft and Roosevelt.

On the subject of the presidency
Mr.. Taft said to newspaper inter-
viewer at Chicago:
~ am not a candidate. am not a
politician As a citizen / may say
without qualification that Elihu Root
of New York is the one man who
answers the requirements of the
times for the presidency"
Did you catch any sentiment on
your travels that would indicate that
Col. Roosevelt might be put forward
as a candidate for the republican
nomin ation?" Mr.. Taft was asked.
II did not come out here to answer
the riddles of the Sphinx" the ex-
President retorted as he hurried away
to his Orchestra Hall meeting"
Mr.. Taft has abundant reason for
putting aside the topic of Mr.. Roose-
welt and the presidency. Once bit
ten, twice shy.
When the two men parted on

they were the best of friends. Mr..
Taft was in the highest Office through
Mr.. Roosevelt's favor. and appre-
ciatcd the favor, and Mr.. Roosevelt
was under a pledge-not made to Mr.
Taft, but to the oountry-not TO run
for the presidency again. Zach man

With Mr.. Roosevelt in Africa shoot
ing big game. Mr.. Taft proceeded IN
Office without suggestions from MS
friend. He could not hope to please
everybody, and probably did not try;
but he made many admirers. and, IN
the main. carried himself well.
Among some of those he did not
please were a few intimate advisers
of Mr.. Roosevelt: and they made
notes of their grievances. They like
wise communicated with their ch1ct
while he was en- route home so that,
when he landed. his plans tor the
future were already laid. lie wanted
the presidency again, and his TRENDS
got busy in his behalf.
Mr.. Taft was slow and reluctant 10
believe the news. His friends urged
the truth upon him. but IT differed
so widely from matters as he under
stood them. time was required 10
bring him to realization OF the SIT
,atiou. When he did realize 1T there
was too little time left for HIM to
take the steps which, taken promptly,
might have thwarted some OF the ma
ueuvers intended for his injury.
lust now Mr.. Roosevelt is himself
silent on the subject OF next year and
his plans. There is no risk IN the
statement that the presidential bee is
still busy in his bonnet, and there
is wide belief that Notwithstanding
his denunciation OF the republican
party and many OF its members he
would jump at a chance to lead 1t
again. But that such chance will
come to him, either naturally. or by
the manipulation of his lieutenants, IS

Grafton in responsible republican
quarters.

Influences and Preparedness.

In a letter refusing to lndorse a
plan formed at Yale University to
establish battery composed OF un-
dcrgraduates. members OF the facul-
ty and graduates Mr.. Bryan says:
II have no objection to voluntary
military training. such as VIC have
had in Universities in the past, but
am not willing to give Endorsement
at this time to any movement that
can be construed as an encourage
rnent to the preparedness propagan-
da which is being fostered and Sup
ported by the preparers of prepared
ness and by the manufacturers OF
munitions.
In an interview on preparedness,
Representative Bailey OF Pennsyl-
vania, who will be heard in the House
on the subject. says:
1t is gradually dawning upon the
country that the munitions makers
are at the bottom of all this agitation
for enormous additions to Our mill
tary and naval establishments. My
candid belief is. that the prepared
ness program will crumble and fall
to pieces If subjected to the light
of day. The people need only to see
the selhshness behind it to set upon
IT the seal OF their disapproval.'
II these two nillennialsts can sup
port their contention. preparedness is
beaten. Congress will not vote dol
Jar toward policy with its root in
mere money-grubbing But in the
way of support they must offer some
thing very much stronger than the
fact that nunition- makers in Amer
ica will get business if preparedness
is entered upon. OF course. they will
But what bearing has that on the
great change in public sentiment re-
corded in newspapers and elsewhere
IN the past six or eight months as to
an adequate national defense?
The President and the Secretary OF
the Navy have both changed their
views, and frankly acknowledged the
change. A number of senators and
representatives have done the same
thing. Politicians, lawyers, educa-
tors, clergymen and business men are
now in the ranks of the advocates
of preparedness. There is even an
association of distinguished women
working for that end. Have they
been influenced by the munition-
makerse By resting on that ground
the millennialists give their case
away.
A small merchant who had granted
credit. not wisely, but too literally,
in rejecting on his situation spun this
couplet. and thought he had solved
the matter:
TO trust is to bust; to bust is he'll.
No trust, no bust; no bust, no hell"
The argument of the miliennialists
is based on this philosophy, and may
be stated thus:
To arm is to fight; to fight is hell
No arm, no fight; no fight, no hell.
Unfortunately for the philosophy
and the argument, however, both
credit and fighting have always ex-
listed, and exist today; and in the
practical world neither business with
out credit nor government without
supporting force is conceivable. And
as we are practical people we must
do as the practical world does, hav-
ing care all along not to extend
credit or use force without full war
rant OF the necessities.
