 the question, and we advocated his election. But when we arrived at Seward we found the Steam Roller" so fully equipped that we did not think for one moment of presenting his name.
 Results, however, might have been different if the wishes of a majority of the Republicans of the Second and Fourth divisions had been carried out by the men holding the proxies at the convention from those divisions.
 It is a matter of common knowledge that the mass of the Republicans in those divisions are opposed to Shack leford domination. In fact. 1t is stated by men of standing that live in the Second division, that the delegation from there was elected to oppose any thing MT. Shackleford wanted. Why their wishes were not carried out will. be matter for future reckoning. It Is no excuse to say that voting for Mir. Murrane for national commit teeman was not voting for Shackle- ford, because all realize that Mur. rane will be national committeeman in name only.
 To my mind, two colossal blunders were made in the conventions which will result in keeping the Republicans of the territory as far apart as they ever were. One was when the matter of nominating Wickersham had gone as far as it had. it should have been carried out regardless of the fact that he would not stand to be gagged. This very act alone will insure 'his election by a thousand majority greater than he has even before received. The other blunder was of a more serious nature.
 When the very foundation of party organization is ruthlessly torn away l to gratify the vindictiveness of party 1 boss it is difficult to see how party can be built up. This was done when the convention refused to allow each division to report the names of it's central committeeman back to the convention for ratification, but de cided to elect them by the entire body.

THE CONVERSION OF
ALSACE-LoRRAIN
Into an independent Buffer State Be-
tween France and Germany.

Amsterdam, Netherlands, April g.
The conversion of AlSace-Lorraine
into an independent buffer state be-
tween France and Germany, possibly
joined to the small independent Grand
Duchy of Luxembourg that is now in
German occupation, is the latest sug-
gestion put forward in Dutch socialist
circles in an attempt to bridge the
deep chas between the French and
German socialist groups, and to en-
able the socialists on both belliegerent
sides TO work with one accord in their
respective countries for the attainment
of peace.
The Alsace-Lorraine question is the
great stumbling block which has hith-
erto defeated all attempts Of the fam
Gus Socialist International to restore
harmony and unity among the various
naional groups affiliated to it, and the
Dutch socialist organ, Het VolI now
puts forward the foregoing as the chief
point in a draft of peace terms upon
the basis of which, it urges, all social
lists might undertake a campaign in
favor of ending the present terrible
struggle.
Rejecting the idea of the war indem-
nifty recently referred to in the reich
stag as out of the question, the pro-
gram in question sets forth further
that Germany shall surrender the ter
ritory she has occupied in the west
| in return for the restoration of her
hundred times more necessary for her
| national existence, while the Allies
shall give her back her lost colonies in
| exchange for the non-Polish Russian
I territory in German occupation and
| the restoration of Serbia and Monte
negro. Russian Poland should. it is
proposed, become an Independent state
which is on the one hand what the
Russian emperor has promised and on
| the other would furnish Germans with
an important reinforcement of the
which so many of them regard as
threatened on the Russian side.
AS regards the Alsace-Lorraine So
luton already mentioned, it is argued
that only a defeated Germany would
ever cede this territory to France.
while only a crushed France would
reconcile itself to Alsace-Lorraine re-
naming German Hence the call for
another plan The people Of the new

FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL

extreme rise of 4 3-S to the new

5-S to the new maximum of 80 IA
were attributed to a drive against the
short interest in those issues, the same
probably applying to Crucible's rise
much of which was later forfeited.
Other shipping shares like United
Fruit and Pacific Mail kept moderate
pace with marines, while American
and Baldwin Locomotives and New
York Air Brake represented the
stocks of the munitions group in less
active fashion. Motors and other

DICTATORSHIP HAS CEASED
IN NICARAGUA
People Are to be Given Choice in /
Selection of a President.

Managua, Nicaragua, April e.
The people of Nicaragua are 10 De
given the right 10 express their Will
for the selection of 4 president. That
will be a remarkable state Of affairs
for Nicaragua where, for twenty years
dictatorship and revolution have in
terdicted and made such a condition
impossible. AS the Secretary Of State
expressed IL in an official letter when
he dismissed the NicaraEuan Minister
from the United States in 1909: 1t
is equally notorious that under the
regime of President Zelaya, repub-
lican institutions have ceased to exist
IN Nicaragua except in name, that
public opinion and the press have
been strangled and that prisons have
been the price of every demOnstra-
ton of patriotism"
President Diaz has just issued an
announcement through the press. and
says he will make IL official by a pro-
clamation in the Official Gazette, that
'it has been the basis Of my program
of government TO restore in Nicaragua
all the republican practices To that
end, he continues, the most important
is the succession OF one-term presi-
dents in the Executive Power, selected
by popular will
As the presidential election in Mic
aragua occurs October I next, and as
politics are warming and the parties
are gathering themselves together
The present generation, Except the
older people who were active before
1880, know nothing Of a popular dis
cussion of candidates for the presi
dency. of a free registration OF voters.
or of any expression OF the popular
will Such things were not permitted
under President Zelaya from 1898 to
1910.
The Provisional Government which
gained force that year adopted a new
constitution for a republican form of
government, providing that the pres
idential term should be four years
and an incumbent could not succeed
himself. thus restoring the practice in
Nicaragua for the quarter century
was in December 1912, but il came so
soon after the revolution OF 1912 en-
gagged in by General Mena and the
Zelaya Liberals, that the paTtisans OF
the latter party made no effort At the
