To Overthrow Incompetent"

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: A distinguished friend and real
Southern colonel writes: There are
many Of us in Virginia who are for
Hughes this year, whereas four years
ago we voted for Wilson. We are
Southern to the core of the marrow of
Virginia, but we are likewise Ameri-
cans from sole to crown, and wish to
overthrow this anarchistic and incom-
petent crew now at Washington"
II the South, with its past appar-
emily Interchangeable attitude and ira
ditions favoring the party OF the great
surrender" is beginning to point out
that Messrs. Wilson, Bryan, Daniels
and Baker are not true to the best in
terests Of the nation, surely the rest
Of the country has made a similar OBJ
servation months ago, and we need not
fear that we shall not soon have that
great American, Charles T.. Hughes, re-
storing the United States to a more
happy condition.

Poles in South America
IRON The Portland Orc0onidn)


II it is true that the Russian govern
ment is planning to foster colonization
Of Poles in South America, as is re-
ported from Petrograd, the movement
will mark a departure from the Gus
tomary policy Of that government. De-
spite the vast population Of the Rus
sian Empire, estimated recently at
$4,000, 600, with an annual increase OF
more than 100000, Russia has not
appeared among the nations encourag-
ing emigration of its own inhabitants.
The great area of Russia is in proper
ton to its population, and there is
room for many millions more before
the food problem will become at all
acute; in addition to which the Car
is credited with definite colonization
ambitions in the direction Of certain
regions in Northern China contiguous
to his own Asiatic Russia.
One explanation suggested Is that
the Poles have proved thorn in the
SlQc OF lHt huSSldi wa
since formation of the Duma, and that
it is desired to reduce their relative
political power by finding homes for
them elsewhere. The Polish people
have long been strong individualists;
they charge their lack of development
in their own country to repressive
measures rather than to lack of Polish
enterprise; they assert that in freer
atmosphere they would take place
among Russians corresponding, for ex-
ample, to that of the Bohemians in
Austria.
The plan Of colonization to which
reference is made is said to contem-
plate the sending of 100000 or 100000
Poles to Venezuela. This would be
boon to Venezuela, and perhaps it
might work out 20 the advantage OF
the new arrivals. The South American
country is rich in natural resources
and, so far as its soil is concerned, it
could feed a goodly part of the world.
It's need has been an industrious citi-
zenship. The present population Of
mixed Latin and Indian is tempera-
mentally better fitted for revolution
than for continuity of effort in the d.
rection of domestic development.

Wars SideIights

(Froul The Washington Post)
Certainly the most interesting and at
the same time, from a certain point Of
view, not the least important of the
war news is that picked up by the way.
What the unknown soldier in the ranks
thinks and says of the whole affair is
told with skill and read with avidity.
The word also from the rank outsider,
when it so happens that the news
bursts upon him suddenly, serves to
remind the rest Of us how we felt be-
fore the seemingly endless succession
of bloody days obliterated the keen
ness of the earlier perceptions.
An arctic explorer has come back
from the northern silence after two
years absence to find the world as he
knew il gone to the bad. Such stoi-
cism as he may have gained from his
long solitude failed to serve his need.
There was suddenly presented to his
mind the knowledge of a stupendous
world tragedy. "Stefansson wept" pos
sesses a seemliness that would appeal
TO all could they shift their vantage
ground to his. Later, he, too, will be
caught in the moving currents Of the
times, which render impossible any
true conception of the larger outlines.
Hence the best and truest histories of
events cannot possibly be written ear
lier than one generation after their
occurrence.
OF lighter significance, yet touching
understandingly the cherished senti-
ments, is the announcement OF the
marriage of Princess Marie Therese
of Hohenlohe to Otto Kohleisen, of
Innsbruck, an spothecary and a de-
scendant of an humble Austrian FAM
lily. There Is the further statement
that the princess nursed Kohleisen
while he was in q hospital suffering
from an illness contracted on the bat
tlefeld. That is all.
After such fashion do the unknown
soldiers fight and grumble and jest, arc
tic adventures weep at the unexpected
news and romance runs its accustomed
course, all oblivious to the higher"
and more momentous matters that af-
fict kings, generals and chancelleries.

The Three Lads
(From The London Edttor)

from The London Eation)
Down the road rides a German lad,
Into the distance grey;
Straight toward the north as . bullet
flies.
Tho dusky north, with its cold, sad
skies;
But the song that he sings Is merry and
glad,
For he's of to the war and away.
"Then hey! for our righteous king!"
Che cries)
"And the good old God in his good old
skiesi
And hol for love and q pair Of blue
For I'm of to the war and awsy!"
Down the road rides a Russian lad.
Into the distance grey.
Out toward the glare Of the steppes he
spurs,
And he hears the wolves In the south
ern frs;
But the song that he sings is blithe and
glad,
FOR mes on 70 tho war ana away.
"Then hey! for our noble tzarl" Che
cries)
"And liberty that never dies!
And no! for love and a pair Of blue
eyes
For I'm off to the war and away"
Down the road rides an English lad,
Into the distance grey.
Through the murk and fog Of the
rivers breath,
Through the dank, dark night he rides
to his death;
But the song that he sings Is gay and
glad,
For he's off to the war and away.
"Then hey! for our honest king!" Che
cries)
"And hey! for truth. and down with
liesl
And no. for love and . pair OF blue
eyes
For I'm of to the war and ewayi"

patriotism" Wilson Brand

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: And now still another onel To
that bright allterative galaxy OF
words, peace, prosperity, prepared
ness" the Woodrow Wilson College
Mems League has added "patriotism"l
You can read 1t on their banner gayly
tapping in the wind across Broadway
at Longacre Square.
Is it patriotism" to sit SNUG at
home and allow American citizens to
be slaughtered in Mexico, American
women to be outraged and American
children to be butchered? Is "watchful
waiting" patriotism?
Is it patriotism" to allow Americans
to be murdered on the high seas-men,
women and children sent to their
deaths by barbarians as ruthless as the
Huns Of old? Is it patriotism" to
allow our mail to be riied and our
merchandise confiscated? Is that
patriotism?
Were not the men who went forth in
'6l to preserve the Union patriots
Were not the men who went forth in
'9S to free Cuba from the oppressor
Spain patriots? Should they have
forgotten the Maine and watchfully
waited? These men were not too
proud to fight" and IL the martyred
Lincoln and the martyred Mckinley
were right Mr.. Wilson was wrong. And
yet the Woodrow Wilson College Mems
League have added patriotism" as an
other watchwordl II. W. ARNOLD.

GIFTS EXCEED ESTATE
OF HUGO REISINCER
Son-in.Law Of Adolphus Busch
Overestimated Own Wealth

The will provision made by Hugo
Reisinger, rice. and carbon importer,
for the erection and maintenance of
a hospital for poor children in Wies-
baden, Germany, from the residue OF
his estate, will never be carried out.
Apparently Mr.. Reisinger, who was 4
son-in-law of the late Adolphus Busch,
the st. Louis brewer, overestimated his
estate, for the appraisal filed in the
Surrogates' Court yesterday shows that
most of the specific requests had to be
reduced, because the estate was not
sufficient to pay them in full.
The testator left gross estate val
ued at s673,l35. The net value was
s532,125.
Some of the requests made by Mr.
Reisinger and the amounts to which
they were reduced were Metropolitan
Museum of Art, $4,000 to S4l,295;
Germanistic Society, 100000 to $780,
7l9: Royal National Museum, Berlin.
$4,000 to SAL, 295, and Wallace Harsley.
chauffeur, $4,000 to s4,l20. Each en-
ploye was TO receive $500, which was
abated to S4l2.

The Truth of o. Henry

There seem good sense and a
proper spirit of artistic honor behind
Professor Smiths frank presenta-
ton of the facts of o. Henry's Jail
sentence. Both William Sydney
Porter and o. Henry are beyond in
jury from the publication of the past.
Gossip had already made the report
widely known. For the long record
of the future the truth should be on
record.
1t seems a pity, therefore, that the
author of the new biography should
add any sentimental comment on the
facts. The precise amount of guilt
for any crime is concededly difficult
to ascertain. Here there seem to
have been extenuating circumstances
which cast doubt upon the whole
charge. But the irreducible mini
mum of facts cannot be brushed
aside, and no loyal believer in the
genius Of o. Henry will wish to shut
his eyes to any element in that
strange life which counted so richly
for American literature.
The cases of Sir Walter Raleigh
and John Bunyan were cited by Pro-
lessor Smith in his discussion. But
Raleigh went to the Tower for n po-
litical conspiracy and John Bunyan
to Bedford jail for preaching his dis
senting faith. In fact, looking over
the record of the greatest writing, it
is amazing to find how high the
standard of moral conduct has been.
Shakespeare's youthful poaching on
the estates of Sir Thomas Lucy Is
one of the gravest offences on the
list. Shelley was expelled from Ok
ford on suspicion of having written
an atheistic pamphlet. Oliver Gold
smith was flogged as a Ounce at
school. That is the run of crime
which the lives of authors mostly re-
veal. There was, of course, Benve-
nuto Cellini, an artist of the first
rank and a writer of the best of auto
biographies, and, incidentally, as fine
an all round roisterer as the Renais-
sance produced. Whether he stole
the French Kings spoons is still a
matter Of debate. He murdered
heartily and frequently, at any rate.
He may pass as an exception to prove
the rule along with that more modern
figure of deliberate crime, Oscar
Wilde.
1t is when you come to birth and
antecedents and surroundings that
the strangest incongruities emerge.
