Germany's Future

cir: am afraid that Mr.. Smonds. In his
article in to-day Tribune on III Belgium
Made Peace" etc. has lost his viewpoint re-
,arding the origin Of the present European
corGagrstion.
since 1870 the world dominion bee has
bcca perpetually buzzing in Germany's bon
net. The present conflict reveals the grca.
organizations she has made to accomplish her
object world power. Should this war end
in draw. leaving them relatively as strong
as they were when they started. II wou'i
mean resumption OF preparations for the
next conflict.
There can be no peace in Europe. nor in
any other part of the world, for that matter
until this world dominion bee which has
been buzzing in Germanys bonnet for nearly
ffty years, is as dead as door or coli" )
nail
If Germany withdrew from Belgium CT

REGISTRATION OF ARCHITECTS
New State Law Is Considered a
Species of Taxation.
IL The Editor OF The Trihunc-

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The recent issuance OF application
blanks under the New York State law for
the compulsory registration ot architects, to-
gether with the text Of the act, has first
called to the attention OF many architects
the curious wording Of the law and raised
serious questions as to its purpose, its ef-
feet and as 70 what, if anything, lie. be-
hind it.
In brief the law provides that architects
not having practised in the state before the
&C. takes effect shall not be permitted 70
practise unless duly registered. Architects
already engaged in practice may secure such
certificate II they fail TO do so they may
not be styled or known as registered srchi-
tects," nor may they append to their names
the magic initials "R. A. This is the only
penalty involved. If, however, such an srchi-
tect is not registered at this time he may
not subsequently avail himself OF the clauses
which permit him TO submit evidence of ex-
perience or diplomas Of recognized schools
but must go 70 the trouble whatever MS
attainments, his experience and his educa-
tom Of presenting himself before a board
Of examiners selected by the regents.
Consider the result. The capable and
reputable members OF the profession will
register TO save themselves possible future
annoyance The inefficient or undesirable
members will forego the somewhat empty
honor Of being styled or known as "R. A.
and continue to practise as heretofore, there
by saving the head tax Of s25. The public
will enjoy the precise measure Of protection
j., now enjoys. The properly qualified archi-
tect is neither worse of nor better of than he
was before. The state has collected a con
siderable sum in fees, which, however, is 10
be spent upon the creation of a board Of
examiners.
Similar laws have been passed in two or
three other states, with a very doubtful de-
gree of success. One OF them, owing TO its
low requirements for registration, acts pure
" as a vicious form Of taxation of architects
in its own and neghborng states
believe many Of your readers would be
glad 10 know who and what were back OF
this legislation, and whether the committee
Of the American Institute. OF Architects ap-
proved IL upon full knowledge and mature
consideration. JOHN OAhMAN'

THE CANDIDATES

Gent answer 10 the suggestion that he
thought himself digger" than his party.
My purpose is not defence Of Justice
Hughes nor the advocacy Of his nomination
but to call attention TO the fact that the
people do no. exist for their party or gov
eminent, but that the party and government
should be maintained for the people.
Il is the duty Of 4 party 30 select ITS cand.
dates because Of their fitness for the Office
for which they are nominated and not as q
favor to the candidate; and the duty Of those
elected TO give the best service possible TO
the people II this be the case. ! submit that
the expressions about Justice Hughes beng a
traitor 70 his party and Mr.. Taft an migrate
are Irrelevant. CHARLES a. CLD r.

ucccdngFo Years
Su

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: | have spoken to a number Of Rcpub-
licans within the last two months in an en-
deavor TO obtain their real views on the ques
ton Of IN, Presidency Three out OF every
four told that they would be happy TO see
Theodore Roosevelt the candidate OF their
party. Some, Of course, hold this view solely
from the desire to win and the conviction
that he would be by far the strongest candi-
date that tho Republicans could name. More,
however want him because he represents
most ardently those views which they them
selves hope 10 see prevail IN our nation:
That our country should be ready to risk all
II necessary, to preserve the rights and lives
Of our citizens our honor abroad and our
peace at home, and that it should bend every
energy at the present time toward thorough
preparedness in order TO uphold its own
credit and 20 protect itself from foreign sg-
gression.
One interesting fact, however remains
namely. the practical impossibiity that these
Republicans will ever have any opportunity
TO express their views at the polls. The sit
uation seems to De the same now as IL was in
1912 A Presidential preferential primary
for this state has been consistently refused
by three successive legislatures. Word has
already gone out from Republican headquar-
tiers throughout the state, as ! am credbly
informed. that no delegate shall be named By
any local organization unless he is known in
advance 70 be pledged against Roosevelts
candidacy While they will be allowed 70 90
through the farce OF primary election, no
genuine opportunity will be furnished to the
pro Roosevelt Republican 70 vote either foe
him or for delegates pledged 70 him.
You are evidently willing 70 accept Hughes
AS a candidate. should he desire to run, but
there are many Republicans who disagree
with YOU They feel that those very qualities
that make Hughes an excellent judge tend TO
make him less desirable as our Chief Exeeu
tive: that II il a grave mistake 10 put a man
on the bench, keep him there for half dozen
years. and then after this judicial training
and almost complete segregation from active
affairs plunge him again into political life
Further. they realize that he has had no er-
porience whatsoever in the handling Of for
eign affairs and international problems, and
finally. they do not know whether or not he
believes whole-soulcdly in prompt and sdc-
quate preparedness.

For a Two Platoon System.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: was surprised in reading your paper
last Thursday to find that you oppose my
bill for the relief OF frcmen in cities Of the
first class.
Your principal contention is that IT Will
disrupt the Fire Department. TO my nina
this argument is incomprehensibie and unin-
tolligible. How any law that has for It's
paramount and only object the promotion o.
the health and efficiency OF an occupation
will cause Generalization is beyond my com
prehension.
have made a careful study Of this sub
iect both from the standpoint OF member
Of the Legislature and IA a citizen OF our
great city, and my contentious are the re.
sult Of earnest endeavor and sincere belief
in the Righteousness of this much needed
change. We all know that the Empire Stat"
occunjes foremost position to-day for its
humanitarian legislation in regard to Labor
and our policy in regard to the penal, chart
table and curative institutions OF our state
Now. what does my bill seek to do? A casual
examination will show that 1T simply pro
vides an amendment 20 the charter that the
fremen will be divided into two divisions
"a work ten and fourteen hours, respectively
and i'm case OF emergency or sudden conHa-
grafton the chief may suspend the operation
Of tho law.
II is unnecessary to state the importance OF
this department to the citizens Of our city
and also from municipal standpoint. Their
work speaks for itself and many agree with
ne in the Legislature that a continuation OF
our present policy in regard 70 this depart
ment is a lasting disgrace to the greatest
cit, in the world. JOHN J. RYAN.

Rather Anarchist than Roosevelt.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Is it really possible that the sane
safe and intelligent Mr. Root is for Roose-
vel.7 Will the Republican party miss such
An elegant opportunity TO elect a President
by naming a man who is sure TO go down to
defea. at the hands Of the millions OF Re
publicans who would rather vote for an an
srchst than for the man who is responsible
for the downfall of that party in 1912?
Will our leaders take chance at winning
the Office OF President and losing the party?

In the Good Old Summer Time.

Justice Tompkins, Of Westchester, holds
that every one may be little mad in sum-
mer Summer is the season of relaxation,
and especially in the matter Of the pro
prieties. During nine months of the year
man should protect himself against nat
ure. and the prophecies are part of his
protection. But in summer the proprieties,
like Undertaking, need thinning. The
natural exuberance of the spirit must have
a greater ventilation. One may exchange
ones formal costume for a bathing suit,
both literally and fguratively.
or course that is what every one does
who inhabits during the heated term one
of those beach colonies, whether Of bunga-
lows or tents. which dot the metropolitan
sands Privacy is there reduced to mini
mum and the sexes come as near to com
rlete comradeship as adult civilized life
permits. And with the phosphorescent
breakers foaming up TO ones doorstep
under the moon and distant photograph
senerading love-sick nature it may be just
rs well that impulse be not goaded with
superficial restraints.
SO the Justice has refused divorce to
a complaining husband on grounds col
lected at a summer beach colony. In such
a community most signs fail. He might
have added. however. that it was, perhaps,
the last place in the world in which a
Jealous or suspicious husband should seek
rest and peace.

time skill as a band director, which
was so thoroughly recognized when he
resided here. The members of the
band are to be congratulated, also, in
their perfect performance. Considering
the fact that the band consisted of but
twenty members, the concert was in
fact marvellous, and proved beyond a
doubt that, with few additions, Minot
still has the material for one of the
best concert bands in the entire coun-
try. The only thing that married the
event was the usual 4th of July hilar-
ity and the accompanying noise, and
many who came to hear the music
were prevented from enjoying it on
this account.
The Evening.
A large crowd remained for the ev-
ening's entertainment which, owing to
series Of most unfortunate circum-
stances did not pan out very we'll The
fireworks committee had ordered even
more fireworks than were displayed a
year ago but only eleven out Of the IS
pieces ordered arrived, the delayed
shipment arriving only this morning
The committee supposed that the en-
tire shipment had arrived until that
evening when the box was opened. AL
tho the crowd had a right to be dis
appointed, no one felt worse over the
affair than the members of the COM
mittee themselves. Minot has always
done her best to deliver the goods just
as advertised. The fireworks were or
dered in plenty of time, but must have
been held up in transit.
The Calithumpian parade was an
other disappointment. The committee
had assurances of over hundred en-
tering this parade, but only few re-
sponded and the larger part of them
came in at the eleventh hour with
scarcely any preparation in order to
make some sort of showing. The
trouble seems to have been that every
body wanted to see this feature and
nobody wanted to take part in it.
Large prizes had beer offered and.the
fault for the failure of this rart of the
program lies with those who did not
go to the trouble to compete.
The celebration, taken by and large,
was big success, however. The var
ious committees worked hard. Minot
businessmen spent their money freely
for the celebration and worked like
Trojans to show the visitors a good
time. Of course in handling such an
immense crowd and pulling off a cele-
bration of this size, there are bound
to be certain sins of commission, but
those who spent days Of their valuable
time in preparing for the day deserve
a vote of thanks.

JESSIE BRYAN TO TELL STORY
OF HER MOTHERHOOD

Jessie Bryan, the young Canadian
girl who claims she is the mother of
the baby girl that Mrs. DOllie Ledger
wood Matters says is the offspring
of her and Fred Matters, will take
the stand in Judge ThOmsOm's court
an reveal the story Of her mother
hood to aid the prosecution Of Mrs.
Matters.
DR.. Mark GOldstein yesterday tes-
titled that in November, 1914, he per-
formed an operation on Mrs. Matters
that he believed took. from her the
possibility Of motherhood. In an
swer to a question he said he did
not believe that Mrs. Matter ever
was or ever would be a mother.
After Jessie Bryan, which is mere
ly an alias used to prevent her
secret from getting back to her
home town, has finished her story,
two nuns from the Misericordia hos
pitaI, Ottawa, Can, will testify con-
corning the alleged manner in which
Mrs. Matters came into the possess
sion of the baby she says is hers.
