quence, it is indicated, of intimations
from their constituencies that their
attitude toward conscription was
sharply resented. Some progress has
been made in the direction of the
placation of the labor interests. by
the giving of assurances that pro-
vision will be made in the measure
to prevent employers from using the
conscriptiom law as means of coer-
cion. The miners. however, remain
obdurate, and doubtless the govern
ment will undertake some sort of
compromise with them to insure their
continued working in the mines for
the production of the necessary naval
coal supply. Inasmuch as this is emil
ncnt1y desirable from the govern
ment's point of view such an arrange
mcnt is to be expected. A division in
the Irish camp has developed, many OF
the nationalists favoring conscription,
so that John Redmond. who has furi-
ously opposed it heretofore, has an
nounccd his intention to retire from
the leadership of the Irish party. 1t
is evident that conscription will be
put through in some form, the imme-
diate question being whether it will
yield the required number of troops
for England's urgent military needs
without causing grave reaction at
home.

The Tariff as an Issue.

The President is of opinion that
the tariff is the only issue the repub-
llcans have. and he is expecting them
to specialize on it in their effort to
prevent his reelection. He is prob
ably wrong. but the republicans
would do well to consider his views.
lhe democrats began to specialize
on the tariff thirty years ago. Ii be-
came practically their only issue. Mr..
Cleveland selected it as the basis OF
his appeal for reelection His mes
sag TO Congress in December, 1887,
d''tt exclusively with the tariff; but
h. stated his ca-c then in such cx-
treme terms he h!ed six months later
to hedge. He par. the penalty OF
sch maneuvcr
our years later the democrats,
aga-a under his leadership. made the
tariff their leading. and practically
only. issue, and won at the polls.
But their success. achieved on a plat
form greatly cxaggerating what
might be expected from the revision
they promised. turned to ashes in
Office. The legislation they enacted
tailed IN operation. and the failure
contributed largely to their defeat at
the next presidential election.
Again giving the tariff overshadow-
ing Importance, they made their
fight OH it in 1912, and in that cam
paign advanced the shrieking alb
surdity that the high cost OF living
was due to the policy OF protection
The result stares them in the face.
and confuses them beyond their abii-
ity to explain The cost of living has
steadily mounted under their cor
rcctive legislation, and is now higher
than ever before.
The lesson seems plain. Where a
party addresses itself to but one is
sue, and makes appeal after appeal
on that, IT magnifies it out OF reason.
II promises wonders that cannot be
performed; and when the inevitab BILE
exposure comes it is Overwhelming.
Much has always been promised in
the name of protection, and much ac-
complished. 1t is still valuable cam
paign cry, and we shall hear it often
in the coming campaign. But the re-
publicans will err greatly at Chicago
II they lay sole, or even undue, stress
on the tariff. Protection has done a
great deal for the country, and if
given another trial will do a great
deal more; but, alone, it could not
remedy the evils charged against
the administration. II change is
ordered in November, the republicans,
in control again, will confront a Sit
uation far beyond the power of any
legislation, however we'll constructed,
on any one subject to remedy.

A Wholesome Change.

The drop III temperature during the
past few hours is most welcome. Al
though cold weather brings some dis
comfort il is to be preferred to the
treacherous dampness OF the early
days of this week, which were dis
ease breeders. The dry cold of today
is far less mcnacing to the health
than the sloppy weather that has just
been experienced, provided there is
mo unnecessary exposure. The change
is especially desirable in view of the
serious tendency toward pulmonary
affections that has been so marked
of late With no less than twenty
five deaths from pneumonia last weel;
and several hundred cases under
treatment at this time, the weather
conditions form d most vitality im-
portant factor in existence.

Victoriano Huerta.

The death OF Victoriano Huerta at
Fl Paso has been expected for some
time, as it was known that he was
gravely i'll of diseases that permitted
of no adequate treatment. There was
Some suspicion that his illness was
more Or less feigned, and that his
purpose was to secure release from
restraint in order, as others have
done in the past. to resume his ac-
tivities. But his death refutes these
doubts, and now he passes from the
scene, a striking figure of most stir
ring event in the worlds history.
Huerta-'s career in Mexico makes
from the American point of view
black record. 1t is suspected that he
was treacherous to Maderc and even
that he connved at if he did not ac-
tually plan his death. But it cannot
be doubted that Huerta was a strong
man. He RAY have aided in or pre-
cipitated the troubles of the Madero
regime, bit when those troubles
broke and the republic was plunged
into revolution the grim soldier
grasped the situation firmly and han
died it with much ability. He was
ruthless and cruel and some saw
he was faithless and vengeful. He
was no Diaz. He lacked that Won
derful mans breadth OF view and
capacity for government Whether
he
scliseeking soldier politician who
grasped at the opportunity offered by
turmoil to place himself in a position
of power cannot now, in the murk OF
Mexican unrest, be asccrtained. 1t
will never be denied that Huerta,
during his brief career as veritable
dictator at Mexico City, was one of
the most striking personalities in the
world.

SPECIAL drills
ARE Being HELD

Various companies of the Nation

Among those which have been drill

panies, the older companies having
been established long enough to have
the necessary drills for the half year
all in.
One of the most exemplary COM
Panies in this regard, according to
guard officers, is Company |, under
