ASQUITH TAKES THE HELM
War Office Goes on Carrying Out
Plans Framed by Former
Head-Several Suggested
for Ministry.

LONDON, June 1.-The Brit
ish army went into mourning to-
dav for its late chief, Earl kitch-
ener. Every officer wore a band
of crepe on his left arm. Through
ont the country flags were at half
mast.
There was, of course, no sus-
pension OF activities having to do
with the prosecution of the war,
and at the war office and other
governmental departments Off
cials continued to work out de-
tails of the scheme which Earl
Kitchener formulated. Premier
Asquith has taken charge of the
war Office.
Flood of Condolences.
From allied and neutral countries
cies came a flood of cablegrams ex-
pressing sympathy. In the dominions,
including South Africa, legislatures ad-
5ourned as a mark of respect for the
dead leader. The news was received
in the South African assembly during
discussion of the estimates. Premier
Botha. who was deeply affected. made
an immediate announcement and NOV
ed adjournment, while the members.
Dutch and British, remained standing
rs tribute to the man who won the
dominion for Great Britain against the
forces in which many of the legisla
tors fought.
Newspapers and many commercial
organizations have taken up the de-
mand for immediate interment of aliens
. from enemy nations on the ground
that the Germans may have been ad-
vised from England of Earl Kitche-
ner's departure, and that such knowl-
edge may have been responsible for
the destruction of the Hampshire.
In connection with suggestions that
information of Earl Kitchener's move
ments may have been conveyed to
the Germans by spies, it is interesting
to note that the Official Gazette last
night contained an order placing new
restrictions on passengers landing at
POTS in the Orkney Islands. Hence
forth no person may land at such ports
without specific permission of the mill
tary authorities at kirkwall-
On Way to See Gear.
An official statement issued says that
Earl Kitchener was to have discussed
important military and financial ques-
tions with Emperor Nicholas. He was
going at the request of the Russian
government. He intended to land at

CONVENTION HALL, Chicago, June J.
In his keynote speech today as temporary chair
man of the republican national convention Senator
Warren G.. Harding OF Ohio, said:
at is good to greet this representative body
of that American repubcanism on which IS cen
tered the high hopes of the republic. | can be-
lieve-nay, | know-that a vast ajorlty OF the
people of our United States is expecting the party
sponsors here assembled to write the sacred
covenant of republicansm, and reconsecrate the
party to the nations service and the peoples ad-
vancement That same majority expects you to
select standard-beare who shallnot only typisy
our expression of faith but shall so enlist the con-
fdence and trust of our American citizenship that
the work of this convention will be confirmed over
whelminplv at the ballot box next November.
"The country, wearied afresh by disappoint
ing and distressing democratic administration, IS
calling for republican relief and there is every
inspiration, every encouragement, every comb
dence that the light of republican conscience, set
aAame in this convention, will illumine the way
to the countrys restoration.
LET US FORGET 1912.
1--WE did not do very we'll in making for far
r,orv the last time we met The country has re-
eretted. let us forget-and make amends to
country We did not divide over fundamental
principles, we did not disagree over national poi
icy. We split over methods of party procedure and
preferred personalities. Let forget the differ
ences. and find new inspiration and new compen-
sation in united endeavor to restore the country.
"The essential principles of republicanism are
unchanged and unchanging; the lofty intent the
understandable soul and the undying spirit of re-
publcanism are as dominant today in the des-
tined beginning sixty years ago, at any time
during the intervening years, and they
phasized today by the proof recorded to repubi-
can credit in the matchless chapters of American
progress.

THE QUALIFICATIONS
 OF AN ARMY OFFICER
Thinks Officers Should Not Oespise Life, Even lf They Do Not
 Fear Death.

LONDON. July 1.-According to a Berne message received by the Wire less Press, the chief of the. Italian general stan. Gen. Cadorna, has a strong objection to "showy" officers who risk their own lives and those of their men in acts of bravsdo which have no real military value.
 We have no use for heroes of TO- nance" he says. When Peppino Gari- baldi. who is noted for his reckless courage. sought a commission in the Italian army, after having served in the earlier part of the war as a vol unteer in France. he was recommend. ed by D'Annunzio'as "one of our bray est"
 That is bad" retorted Gen. Cad. orna tersely.
 He sings and laughs amid hail of enemy explosives" continued D; Annunzio.
 At the mere sight of him his men l become seized with an enthusiasm that leads them to rush joyfully to death in an intoXication of holy ar dor" proceeded D'Annunzio.
 Worse and worse" responded Gen Cadorna-
 What qualities. then, are requir ed ?' asked D'Annunzio
 ''I am of the opinion answered Gen Cadorna. that he should be taught l first Of all not to get killed himself and not to expose his men without need. An officer who is worthy of his position does not fear death, but he . does not despise life He must be cool methodical and serious"

Although the article is without a signature. the subject IS such as to justify its publication. and the Pro EreSsive-M Miner only wishes for more along that line A mass of such ar ticles might have the happy result of waking up the Commercial Club to our need that is herewith forcibly set forth. The incident is related by the party, and follows:
 In walking about the city yesterday with q visitor. she remarked that it seemed strange to see the United States Forest Service offices in one building. the Lighthouse Service of fees in another and the United States Immigration offices in still another she might have added the postoffice and customs house - Why weren't they in the Government Building? I had to tell her that we were not so fortunate as to have such thing as Q government building. and we some times wonder why it Is so.
 told her of our fine public library built and maintained by ourselves; that we were justly proud of it and a fine little city building on a valuable downtown lot She seemed to think that if our government really knew and understood conditions here there would be more aid in building up this wonderful country. But when our own people refuse to understand our needs: what can we do?
