republican; that the future opposition
to the democracy will appear under a
new name, a new leadership, and pre-
senting new issues.
As to the name, nothing is less likely
than that, come what may next month
even a landslide to Wilson-there will be
any change. Too much inspiring history
and too many inspiring names are asso-
ciated with the name now in use. MIR
Lincoln's name alone and the preserva-
ton of the Union would defeat any
proposition to drop the name republi-
can. It will be preserved.
AS to the leadership, that may or may
not be new. The party today contains
many strong men, and some are COM
paratively young. There is no reason
why defeat, if it comes, should retire
them Others, of course, may be devel-
oped, and join them, though not neces-
sarily at their expense.
As to new issues, they are likely. But
both parties will have to meet them
when they arise. But, come veal, come
woe, the republican party must, and will,
continue to champion protection, sound
money, an army and navy adequate for
the largest purposes and to meet any
pressing obligations, and a retention of
our present island possessions. To sur
render any one of those propositions
would be to invite disintegration and
final disaster.
No, this time four years hence will
witness another tussle between the re-
publican party and the democratic party,
and showing all the spirit that has
marked all their previous tussles.

Forecasting.

From the Columbus Ohio State Journal
1t seems the whole country has its
ewes turned on Ohio and that the old
Maine watchword has been changed to
JAS Ohio goes so goes the Union" So
it has become deeply interesting to
know how Ohio will go. There Is a
great difference of opinion. We have
seen exultant claims of 100000 ma
iority for both Hughes and Wilson. 1t
is good deal closer than that. but
how close no one can tell. By election
time 1t may not be so close.

From the Christian Science Monitor
1t Is no longer a question of ultimate

countries, shall be made enective by
federal enactment.

GERMAN RAIDER
RUNS BLOCKADE

Berlin, March 1.-THE German raid
er Moewe has arrived at Wilhelmshav-
en-, German port.
Official announcement has been
made that the Moewe has on board
many British prisoners and 100000
marks in gold bars, taken from cap
tured vessels.
Fifteen vessels are said to have
been captured by the Moewe, which
also laid a number of mines. One of
these mines, it is asserted, sank the
British battleship, King Edward VII.
The Moewe has achieved one of the
most spectacular feats of the war by
reaching home port safely.
Wilhelmshaven is on the North sea,
which is patrolled by British ships.
The Moewe had to pass through these
waters before it could reach port in
safety.

EIGHTEEN DEAD IN
Ell PAS0 EXPLOSION

Ell Paso, Tex, March 7.-Eighteen
dead and a score more or less seri-
ously injured was the toll of an ex-
plosion and fire at the city Jail bath
house here
The name of one American is in
cluded in the list of dead and twelve
are numbered among those seriously
burned
Surgeons believe the death list prob
ably will reach twenty, as some Of
the injured would not live more than
a few hours.
The blaze started by flash of flame
from a large tub of gasoline and kero-
sene solution used to destroy germ
carrying lice.
In their first reports officials at
tributed the origin to the deliberate
action of one Of the prisoners in
throwing a lighted match in one of
the containers.
