Concerning the silence on the part Of Justice
Hughes, who is considered as the possible selec-
ton Of the Chicago Convention as the Repub-
lican candidate for President, the Baltimore Sun
makes the following very wise observations
This is not an ordinary campaign. The
issues are not ordinary ones. There is no such
such thing as the Republican party's political
faith with reference to the matters Of prepared
ness and the great war and Mexican policy
Mr.. Paci6st Ford is as true Republican today,
so far as these things are concerned, as Mr.
Militarist Roosevelt. Mr. Hughes may be
paci6st or miEtarist, and still be good Repub-
lican. But if he is to be elevated to the Presi-
dency, it will make all the difference in the
world which he is.
For this reason the Republican convention
if it names the silent Hughes, will most assured
" be buying a pig in poke As we have
said before, this is matter which concerns the
Republicans primarily. IF they want to take a
chance, it isn't anybody's business much but
their own. The people will have ample OPP
portunity to learn what Mr.. Hughes thinks be-
fore election day But it does seem rather hard

TO OUR GRADUATES.

Nearly every hamlet village, town and city
at this commencement season OF the institutions
Of learning, welcome home those who have
spent years in hard study and with honors have
graduated; and many are the hopes and expec-
tations centered in you---hopes that society will
be elevated, many immorals corrected, wrongs
nghted and places Of importance better filled.
Do you ask, where is your place. The world
is before you and though it may seem crowded,
there are still many wants that it does no adver-
tise, to avoid rush Of applicants, but these
wants exist and are, indeed, very pressing and
very real, and your compensation will be as ann
pie as you have brains, pluck and energy to earn
It. The world wants graduates who are men
enough to search out these places and make
room for themselves; it wants young women Of
sufficient self-reliance to bear the dsappoint-
ment Of not securing the FIRST position for which
they apply; most Of all, it wants character, and
very wisely declines to accept college Of
school diploma as conclusive evidence Of that.
Enter into your life work with right motives,
earnestness zeal and honesty Of purpose, and
thoroughness that will satisfy. Realize the re-
sponsibilities which have come to you, and as
sumo them in great humbleness, and yet, in true
manLness, and bear il mind, BY your fruits ye
shall be known.

Washington. Jan. 10 The London
dispatches saying that papers seized
from Captain Won Papen showed that
money paid through him TO alleged
bomb conspirators had been handled
through the German Embassy aroused
much interest here TO day. but no ign
appeared that either the State Depart
mcut or the embassy regarded the
revelations as serious. Al The embassy
Count Won Bcrnstorf repeated the
statement that he did not believe the
dispatches. and explanations absolvng
him from the various charges were
offered. Al the state Department 1t
was stated that the matter would not
be considered until official information
arrived, but officials privately were in
clined to minimize the danger of new
crisis
Republican leaders and other critics
OF the administration. while declaring
the charges the most serious yet made
against tho German Ambassador, and
fully warran;ing the breaking of OF
relations If proved, did not expect any
such result They believe that even
more damaging evidence has lain for
months in the state Department pig
conholcs. and that in this case, as In
every other where the Ambs ssador
himself has been involved. his excuses
viii be accepted.
The gravity Of the charges, they de
clare. does not lie 80 heavily against
the ambassador himself as against MS
government. They point out that his
exclamation that he was not personally
responsible for the activities Of his
military and naval aids and that he
knew nothing Of what they were doing
may be true. The important thing IN
their view. is That. II the charges are
proved. n will be plain that. Wn.incr
with or without Won Bernstort's knowl-
edge. the embassy here was actually
beng used as part OF the plan for
destroying the American munitions
business and otherwise violating our
neutrality.
II is further pointed out that the
charges would disprove aI the peas
Of innocence made by the German GOV
eminent iu connection with these Grim
NAL activities. German officials lcre
have repeatedly stated that. while they
could not deny that such crimes were
being perpetrated. they were without
the sanction or cOnnivance OF the GOV
eminent. The officials have regretted
that misguided persons Of German sym-
Dathies should do such things, bur in
sisted that they could not be held ac-
countable.
As detail OF this general denial
has been the specific denial that any.
thing done by ron Pspen or Boy-Ed
had been Illegal Il was admitted That
thew had been working for their c0un-
try i'm rather underhand ways. but
there has been the most emphatic re-
pudiation Of any connection with the
bomb and other outrages.
II now the new charges are proved,
il will be shown that in several instance
these denials were utterly false, and
