LONDON, July 21.-John Red
mond. the nationalist leader, made
public Thursday memorandum
which he sent 10 Premier Asquith
and David Lloyd-George. the secre-
tary for war. on Tuesday. in which
he declared that the delay in max

and the irritation caused by Lord
Lansdowne's recent speech had Gre
ated a very serious situation in Ire
land. He adds:
"In my opinion any further delay
whatever in producing and proceed

terms submitted by Mr.. Lloyd
George quite impossible. When
these terms were originally submit
ted TO US we were strongly urged
10 use all possible despatch in con-
sulting our supporters in Ireland. II
was pressed upon us that the matter
was one Of extreme urgency. that
from all points Of view, it was vital

should he pushed through quickly,

Irish but great imperial interests
were at stake"

OUR NEW ISLANDS.

The Danish West Indies are now ready
for delivery. The people having voted by
large majority, for a transference of allegi-
ance, the Folkthing has ratified the sale, the
terms of which had previously been accept

will soon move in.
Thus is concluded a deal which was be-
gun in 1870, when the United States re-
fused to pay 81, 100000; was revived in
1901, when Denmark refused $4,000, 1000;

New York, Dec. 23.-Come with me
for Christmas visit to the Old Mems
Toy Shop down on Mott street and
I'll show you the close relationship
that exists between the First and sew
enth age of Man.
Here, an old building where the
children of the lower east side once
were instructed in the three RS, more
than 40 men past the prescribed three
score years and ten are making
Christmas toys so they won't have to
go to the poor farm.
The Old Mems Toy Shop is a port
in which many human vessels, bat
tered and torn on life's voyage, are
seeking refuge from bitter winter
winds. Here the worlds oldest
Christmas toys are being made.
The old men of the toy shop are a
strange crowd. Too old to do a mans
work, too proud to solicit charity,
ambitious unto the end, they come to
pass the evening of their lives maxi
ing playthings for children. They
earn go cents a day.

THE BETTER, sURER GUARANTEES

Even as President Wilson said that
Lloyd George speech had nothing to do
with his note, so Lloyd George is saying
that President Wilson'S note will not
change his course in the least. That is
diplomacy. OF the two, Lloyd George is
little closer TO fact, because conservatively
expressed though it was, his speech of the
nineteenth contained a clear invitation TO
further discussion along the lines suggest
cd by Germany. We will therefore wait,
he said, until we hear what terms and
guarantees there are better than those,
surer thanAthose, which she so lightly
broke And this sentiment, President
Wilson'S note will have the effect of en-
phaszing over every other phase of the
British premiers two-hour speech-which
will have noticeable effect on the German
rejoinder.
An encouraging sidelght on the entire
problem is the changing of British public
opinion. We say British not only be-
cause they are the center of attention, be-
cause they speak our language in more
senses than one, and because our sources of
information in England strike deeper, but
also because experience has shown how
clearly England reflects the opinion of the
entire entente. While, therefore, the Mar
quis of Londonderry said, when Ger
many's request was first announced,
Peace at the present time would be disas-
trous to the nation and the empire and the

THE FLORIDA MUSEUM.


An undertaking for which all patriotic
Floridians would wish to see more ade-
quate provision made at the next session
of the legislature, is the State Museum, at
Gainesville.
When we consider that the annual aver
age income of the $40 museums in the
United States is nearly fifteen thousand
dollars, while that of Florida, the youngest
and therefore the most needful of capital, is
but few hundred, further argument seems
unnecessary.
Do not confuse State Museum with the
usual sideshow depository of freaks and
frauds A museum is a medium for collect
ing and classifying data and material rep
resentative of the region in question. 1t is
scientific and economic index of the
country.
In our museum we should learn what is
known about the mineral, vegetable, and
animal kingdoms of Florida.
From this compendium we should be able
to study any phase of the stone and stone
industries of the state; manufactured arti-
cles from clay, brick, tile, pottery, etc.; the
different soils, mineral waters, artesian
wells, water power and water transpoDta-
ton
In the vegetable department., we should
see not the usual herbarium of dried leaves
pasted on card, but samples of all the
grasses, algae, often very valuable, hbrous
plants from which rope, mating, brushes,
ETC., are manufactured; nuts, herbs, oils.
lumber, fuel; then the cereals, fruits, etc,
together with the data establishing the best
suited regions for any given crop.
In the animal department, specimens
should be preserved of every insect, bird,
fish, reptile, and marvel found here, to-
gether with samples of the manufactured
products of the same.
Last but not least, where can the history
of the state be told so wildly as in the
Museum? Displays, Illustrating the life
from the days of the aborigines down
charts and archives classified; public tro-
phies preserved-what liberal education
this department in itself would offer! How
are our early state records being kept? Are
their rich contents at all accessible or are
| they dumped into some forgotten attic, or
| lost entirely?
| Ofthis tremendous task one man work
ing half time, and with practically no funds,
has been able to accomplish a very, very
small part. 1--WE have" says Curator Van
| Hyning, to date, nearly six hundred ac-
cessions, embodying nearly one hundred
thousand specimens, properly recorded; the
majority, however, lies hidden away from
want of means to place it to use"
More funds to indexing one of the great
est states of the Union!

QUIET AT

The Lewis Machine Gun controversy is
one into which we did not enter, suspect
ing Interior motives in the dismal propa-
ganda with which the press has been af-
fllcted the past several months. Mistakes.
our war department has undoubtedly made
IN the past; but the charges in this instance
were so great that they fell of their own
weight. The rawest kind of discrimination,
for instance, was alleged against the in
ventor, Col. I. n. Lewis, u. S. A., who was
not even allowed to give the gun to a suf-
fering country, it was said, much less offer
it for sale to that country, simply be-
cause he had trod on some bureaucratic toes
sometime, somewhere.
Secretary of War Baker in categorical
statement, not only denies the gift" of
fer, but states positively that the gun was
amply tested and did not meet the REQUIRE
ments; and assumes all responsibility for
rejecting the gun. Secretary Baker also
orders controversy to cease, for which he
has ample legal authority over the officers
of the army.
1t was time. With high ranking officers
writing signed articles in the papers, the
discipline of the army itself appeared to be
touched on a matter which, as Secretary
Baker said, was not one of fact but of opin-
ion as to the character of the test to which
the gun was subjected, under which it was
disqualified for further tests on the en-
durance count.
