THE TARIrr AM OTHER ISSUES.

TNHE luncheon which the Democratic National Com
mittee enjoyed at the White House was the first
hospitality of the kind which the President has ever
shown to the organization of his party Some OF the
committeeman, recalling this and knowing that
President may summon whomever he may wish to see
TO come to the White House were little surprised
to hear Mr. Wilson emphasizing the Isolation OF his
life al the Executive Mansion And some If them re-
nected that his life had been excessively iso-
lated" after all.
The President hardly less happy he tried TO
talk slang to his guests. The Democratic National
Committeeman are by no means hnicky, and some OF
them admit TO deficiencies in grammar and diction
But they look for something different in President
and they cannot understand whether the President
trying to get himself down to what he thought to be
their level whether he is trying new pose with
which follow the afectation Of Isolation which
cannot be much longer maintained
However. the committeeman were politely respon-
sive to the Presidents efforts They reshed the food
and they Uttered decorousy when he spoke of getting
things "on his chest" and when he said the Republ-
cans are talking through their hats" They main
tanned also the expected silence when asked them
if the Republicans had any issue except the tariff.
This question betrays narrowness Of political
horizon which is ncomprehensble, and is regarded as
proof f the care with which TumutF has guarded Mr.
Wilson's life from the intrusion Of newspaper and other
! criticism. While Republicans would be vastly con-
tent to fight next years campaign no other issue
than the tariff they are in feet surrounded by an en-
barrassmont of riches when they contemplate the man
which the fight may be carried on Mexico for
egn relations in general the Treasury deficit, the
extravaganza of Congress the bungling of legislation

when he asked this question.

ANornrR SUBMARINE CRIME.

f. as is asserted the big British passenger steam
ship Persia destroyed without warning and
with no opport unity for safety given to her company,
the crime was a diabolical and its perpetrator
should be called immediate and strict account for
its commission. II oold-blooded and as de-
fensoless as the destruction Of the Lustania by
the Germans and the Ancona by the Austrians
It must be accepted that the submarine that de-
stroyed the Persia belongs to either Austria Ger
many. In view OF the positive assurances given by
the former in the Ancona and those given by the
latter in the Lusitania the destruction of the
ship only objectionable crime against cviliza
ton but also direct afront to the United states Cow
emment quite apart the fact that it is thought
that one OF victims is Robert N. McNeely American
consul at Aden Arabia.
No effort should be spared by the United States Gov
ernment to obtain all tho facts in connection with
the destruction of the Persia No time should be lost
in fixing the responsibility for the crime. With the
responsibility fixed the criminal should be called TO
immediate account

Fog yesterday tied up shipping in
the local port. The Wilson Line made
but one round trip between this city
and Philadelphia during the day. The
Wilmington made her way from Phil
aGelphia to Wilmington but did not
return. The steamer Philadelphia
made a round trip and was all day
doing it. The ferryboat Long Beach
made one rOund-trip between Penns-
grove and Wilmington.
The Merchant made her regular
trips to Deep Water Point during the
day but did not make her night trip.
The Dime Line steamer Endeavor
made her trips during the day and
took her $50 o'clock trip last night.
The Maryland "jitney' boat made
her trips and met with no trouble.
Trains over the p, b. and w. rail
road and the B. and o. line kept NOV
ing. but many trains were late be
cause they had to run slowly and
carefully to see the signals.
The trains between Wilmington and
Philadelphia were more than usually
well patronized because of the Doats
being tied up by fog.

Germany as for Germany AS mat
ter OF fact, what they did to inter-
fere with the munitions plants was
purely incidental to their main pur-
pose of absorbing as large a percent
age as possible of the credulous RIM
telen's S50O.OOO strike promotion fund.
David Lamar, the ex-"Wolf of Wall
Street" was the originator of the no
torious Antitrust League. which used
to operate in the lobbies OF Washing
ton. It's sympathy with the cause or
labor was just as mercenary as was
its sympathy, when converted into La
bor's National Peace Council, with
the cause Of pro-German neutrality
In playing Germany's game it was
not even moved by desire to increase
the wages OF the workers in munitions
factories by inciting strikes and hold
ups.
The munitions workers were able to
take care of themselves; they did
| take care of themselves in most cases
/ The Peace Council was after divi-
dends, whatever labor got or Germany
got. 1t was perfectly willing to be-
come itself violatOr of the antitrust
law in the pursuance Of the laudablC
ambition to keep Rintelen's gold in
circulation in antitrust channels.
For these contemplate go-between'
in the conspiracy to suppress the mu
nitions traffic no possible sympathy
can be felt They were not even sin
cere and loyal conspirators. The spiri
in which they operated was far basei
than that of the misguided hypenatei
here who have consciously put Ger
many's interest above any duty the.
owe to our laws and our neutra
status. Only scorn can be their por
ton. whether or not they escape con
viction on the charges on which the.
