In either case. Whether nominated or not,
both Mr.. McCombs and Mr.. MARITIME will
support Mr.. Wilson for reelection. Both
favored his denomination, Mr.. McCombs
as chairman Of the democratic national
committee calling the St. Louis conven-
ton to order.
Mr.. MARITIME likes the Senate, and the
Senate him. When he talks-which is
not often-it is in a vein to command
friendly interest. His partisanship is
dependable on big things, but is not
hidebound. He has the courage to sup
port individual convictions when form
ed.
Mr.. McCombs is inexperienced in legis-
lative work, but, as most men do who
try it, would probably like senatorial
work. It is performed in the main
under conditions that make for both
friendship and partisanship. Bitterness
is but rarely shown in the chamber, and
when shown soon disappears. 1t is bad
form; and form operates powerfully in a
body where procedure in the main is
based on agreements among gentlemen.

Rumania Enters the War.

| Rumanias declaration of war against
| Austria Hungary, announced this morn
| ing after a council of ministers at
Bucharest, follows the natural sequence
| of events in Europe. It has been ex-
pected for many months. though the
most powerful influences were at work
to keep Rumania neutral in the interest
of the central powers. All ties of blood
drew Rumania to support Italy and
France, as that nation is of Latin
origin Selfish political considerations
also inclined her toward the cause of
| the entente allies. inasmuch as through
their success, in the event of her par
| ticipation, long cherished plan of ter
ritoriai enlargement, to include Ru-
manians in Bessarabia and Transyl-
vania, could be realized The hesita-
| ton of Rumania has been due undoubt
edly to her question as to the outcome
of the war. The fact that she has now
thrown her fortunes with the allies may
be regarded as an indication of con
| tidence in their ultimate victory. Her ac
| cession affords an immediate advantage
| to the allies in that it permits the tran
| sit of Russian troops across Rumania to
attack Bulgaria, or to strike Austria
Hungary on the flank. Indeed. the
| opening of Rumania to Russian troops
creates serious new danger for Aus
| tria Hungary in that unless the Aus
TRANS can force the fighting on new
| front the Russians may be enabled to
start an invasion along the line of the
Danube, thus, after passing the Iron
| Gates, having a comparatively clear
course northward toward the capitals
Rumania's own army, however, is no
| small factor in this new alignment of
mate 100000 men, we'll drilled and
equipped and fully modified. This
| force alone. operating on the Bulgarian
| front. may have a vital bearing upon
1 the course of events in that sector of
| the war Bulgaria is placed in most
| difficult position, between the allied
troops centering at Saloniki and the
Rumanian and probably Russian troops
moving southwark. Neither of her
| Teutonic allies is in position to send
large reinforcements, while Turkey is
herself in the gravest straits in Asia
and unable to spare any material force
for the Balkan campaign No explana-
ton has come at this writing of the
reason alleged by Rumania for declar-
ing war against Austria Hungary,
though there are many conceivable
causes that may be alleged as ground
