Presidents Title Secure.

Whatever may have been the real purpose of
President Wilson's speeeh-making tour, which has
just ended, its most important result is the demon
stration that his position leader of his party is
impregnable. He will have no opposition at ST.
Louis worth considering. No one study the
situation for moment without being convinced
that President Wilson is candidate for renomi-
nation and that he will be the practically unani-
nous choice of the convention. Before Mr.. Will
son left Washington it was announced that his
mission to win the support of the people for
his program of preparedness. So far as that issue
is concerned if his purpose was educational he has
been disappointed; for if the press reports of the
sentiment which the President encountered every
where including the Middle West may be believed,
it was the people who were educating the Presi-
dent. They must have shown him plainly that he
was no more in favor of the program he advocated
than they were that he more determined
to uphold the honor and rights of the United States
than they were to have in the White House a man
they might depend upon to do that very thing to
the limit. BY their attitude they refused to con-
cede him prior claim to the policies he asked them
to ndorse
Even so, his experiences could only have been
gartifying to the President. He went into what
were supposed to be the strongholds of Organism,
and preached, with all the vigor and earnestness
he could summon, the very things Mr.. Bryan has
set his face against and preached against and he
found followers of the doctrine of dishonorable
peace and surrender of individual manhood and ma
tional independence. He discovered that the issue
Mr.. Bryan tried to raise when he turned tail and
quit the Cabinet rather than continue to confront
a nation called to account for Americans dead was
scored by Americans alive The President is mas
ter Of his party. His political foes he may be "too
proud to fight and none will question his courage.
To concede that the primary object of the Pres
ident's tour was to confer with the public the
subject Of preparedness does not forbid recognition
OF the probability that he mindful of the fact
that such campaign would give him the exact
measure OF his own and Mr.. Bryans strength. His
address to the pro-German citizens of Milwaukee
was a rather broad revelation of an inspiration in
which politics and not preparedness para
mount. His journey may have been undertaken
with double purpose, and if it both the Pres
dent and the country may rejoice that it was
doubly triumphant

One Law for Man, Another for Woman

Nowhere will surprise be occasioned by the
dict Of the Rhode Island jury acqutting the wife
of physician Of the charge Of bringing about the
death Of her husband at the hands of hired as
sassins. 1t was as much to be expected the
exoneration year or so ago of the wife OF a
Long Island physician who accused of killing
woman patient in her husbands office, where she
had installed dictagraph connected with her own
apartment. The results Of trials in re-
years, in every section of the country, prove
that except in extremely instances, when the
evidence of premedtated and cold -blooded killing
without the least provocaton is indsputable, Amer
lean jurcs will not convict women Of the capi-
tai crime Any excuse is sufficient to insure a
womans acquittal of the charge of murder, even
jealousy, be it we'll founded otherwise In all
trials of women for murder the public accepts ac-
quttal foregone conclusion. The possibility Of
conviction is scarcely considered
Without reference to the evidence which may
or may not have influenced the verdicts in the two
cases cited it will hardly be disputed that the
dict OF mot guilty invariably rendered in sensa-
tiona and widely advertised in which women
are accused of murder presents danger to society.
With every such verdict the proclamation to wom-
en throughout the country that they may kill with
no fear of punishment in any form is repeated. So
long as it is impossible to apply present laws
against murder to men and women alike, the wise
course would appear to be for the States to abolish
capital punishment to amend their laws that
the death penalty may be inflicted upon males
onlv Absurd as the latter proposal may sound
it is to be preferred to custom by which the law is
set at naught by uries whose action, widely adver-
tised through the press invites other to take
life to avenge their wrongs, real or imaginary. 1t
is reasonable to assume that with the death pen
atty for women eliminated juries might be found
willing to condemn them to term in prison when
the evidence against them warranted conviction
1t is seldom that dozen men find difficulty in
agreeing to send fellow to gallows or chair
when the evidence Of premeditated murder is con-
elusive but it is fate to which they steadfastly
refuse to condemn a woman the result being that
she goes wholly unscathed of the law Whether
men would enjoy similar immunity if their fate
depended upon juries composed of women is not
a question for laymen to decide but there is ample
evidence that would be far less lenient with
their own sex than the of the present day
But since men make the laws and interpret and ap-
ply them, the time to be approaching when
they must recognize their own weakness when the
gentler sex is concerned and adjust the laws SO
that they may not be made sport of and justice
may be safeguarded in measure at least.

Representative Cyclone" Davis has introduced
in the House bill requiring each corporation in
the United States to pay the cost of maintaining
one soldier for each $4,000 of capital and surplus
in excess of s25oooo and in time of war, for each
$4,000 in excess of $4,000 The bill also requires
individuals with incomes in excess of $4,000 a
year to maintain soldier sailor for each
$4,000 excess in time of peace, and one soldier
or sailor for each $4,000 in excess of $4,000 in

THE OPEN FORUM
In Which Readers of The Herald Express Their
Views on Current Topics

Editor OF The washington Herald
There has been considerable discussion
pro and con on the subject Of military
preparedness. and every time the subject
Is mentioned there comes up the old
bugAboo OF ''militarism." II Is high time
the American people were looking the
facts squarely in the face-that we have
very small army and an inadequate
navy and that our coast defenses are
widely laid out but very thinly cult
waited. so as to speak
Past experiences have taught US that
there must be some stimulus besides love
OF country to make men fond Of military
service George Washington found this
TO be fact when he was struggling to
raise an army to establish a government
to be founded on the principles enuh-
Iciated in the Declaration Of Independence.
The immortal Lincoln found the same
thing to be true when he called for
volunteers to fight to save the Union
10 make IL possible that "a government
OF the people. by the people. and for the
people should not perish from the face
Of the earth" and so, he, Lincoln, had
20 resort to conscription.
Had this country possessed an adequate
army and navy in 1872 the British forces
would have never been able to take and
partially destroy the Capital OF the Ma
ton with a much smaller and better
trained army. Had this nation had an
adequate army in 1861 the war Of the
! rebellion would not have lasted six
months. Be always ready, for. the enemy
may come "as a thief in the night" Had
the allies been prepared for war the
present conflict in Europe would not
have been going on today. Nations are
like individuals II a man is looked upon
as an easy mark everybody Will i'm
pose upon him.
Again II we construct more ships and
make preparations TO protect our sea
coasts it will mean more employment for
American workmen and the money will
come back to the government indirectly
This myth of raising an army Of l.Gn0,oO0
men overnight seems ridiculously absurd
10 the thoughtful observer. Fighting
from a military standpoint has been re
lduced to a science. and II would be
little short OF cold-blooded murder to
place a large body Of inexperienced. un-
trained men in the field TO fight against
an army of trained soldiers.
One thing is quite evident and that is
The Washington herald., 1916-02-06

A Philadelphia rector, deposed by the bishop,
upon being advised that another was to take his
pulpit announced: Poor Mr.. Huff So he's COM
ing back. Well, you know what happened last
June. If he wants to come to the church. let him
come, but he won't preach. You can say positively
that l shall preach, and the only way they could
prevent me from preaching would be to have a
guard OF soldiers stationed there to shoot me down
And they'd have to shoot me down, too" There
will probably be large congregation on hand to-
day. even if they don't remain long enough to see
who breaches.
