Old Concord.

came to Concord in the evening. Care,
And strutting Pride, and painted Folly,
these
Were all forgotten with the solemn trees,
The clean white walls of Concord. Every
where
Were welded peace and order. Yet what
blarc
or brcathless buglcs on the sparkling
breeze
What scarlet foe that battles and that
fees
What beckonings, and what voices haunt
the air.
For it was spring in Concord, and the
sight
Brought back the glories of that death
less year,
The muffled tread of armies in the night,
The ghostly hoofs, the shouts, and Paul
Revere,
The Old North Bridge, the men who did
not fear
To die for home, ard liberty, and right.

To-monow's Town Meeting.

We have had parades by the score in
New York, but never any quite as impress
sive as that which will march all day long
tomorrow in the name of preparedness.
AS a silent, spontaneous outpouring OF all
kinds Of citizens, the city has never seen
its equal. No eloquent leaders have
drummed up enthusiasm. or outward
trappings and organization and advertise
ment there has been next to nothing. The
whole procedure suggests chiefly town
meeting of the old type-a community
standing up to be counted for cause
about which there is felt to be no real dis
pute.
The parade will count much for pre-
paredness. 1t will count much in estab-
fishing the character and motives which
lie behind the nations resolve to prepare
Jingoism. militarism in its narrow sense,
are conspicuously absent. The men and
women who march want peace as much as
any one. But their eyes have been opened
bv a world disaster, and they are resolved
that if war comes it shall not find them
and their children a defenceless prey.
That is all. They ask to serve. They ask
that their country help them to help them
selves, making ready to protect their
dearest and best

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: With the principles advocated By The
Tribune | am in full accord, and especially
pleased with its position regarding the liquor
traffice and advocacy OF thoroughgoing bust
ness honesty.
Your choice OF political leader is a choice
made in 1872 decming political as desirable
as business honesty.
As a soldier Of the Civil War I have nat
urally been a Republican, and though served
under General Hancock and fell little short
Of hero worship in the case Of that grand
commander; and though it was Democrat
who ordered. "If any man attempts 10 haul
down the American flag shoot him on the
spot ! am, nevertheless, unable 10 forget
that none but Democrats have ever hauled
down Old Glory in dishonor.
The Philippines should be held indefinitely
and treated precisely as England has treated
Canada.
Sooner or later We shall be forced to OBJ
tain control of Mexico. The United States
will muddlc along and let one of the three
weird sisters fix the time unless lucky
turn OF the political "backball" saves the
old girl the trouble

the most terrible. IL is easy enough to
explain how it happened. A weak minis
try, handful of power-loving men, whose
blindness and cowardice prevented them
from dealing with the facts Of the irish
matter when there was still time, have
followed the course that weak men IN
power always follow under similar cir
cumstances. They have rushed from
weakness to execution and sought to
prove strength after the .event by resort
ing to the methods which have ever been
the final weapon of tyranny.
1t is plain that many Englshmen have
already perceived the terrible mistake that
has been made. There is hope that the end
of the killings has come and that no more
are TO be added to the list of those whom
coming generations, not alone OF lrlshmen,
but of freemen the world over, will regard
as heroes and martyrs. But what is there
left to be said by those who have IN this
country defended Britain, maintained that
she entered the war to serve the cause Of
liberty? 1t is only the friends of Great
Britain who need to be silent now.
They were mad, perhaps, those rebels;
they were foolish; they did not represent
Ireland; they did not have the approval of
a minor fraction of the Irish people; they
struck at moment when Britain was
fighting for her life; but they did love lib
erty and they have died for it; died for it
after the rebellion was over; died as Miss
Cayell died in Belgium, the victim Of a
stupidity which is beyond all words.

For President, Robert Lansing.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In view Of the fact that We need in
these days a specially able man as President
an unusual man. might humbly suggest the
name Of Robert Lansing, Secretary of state.
for the nomination? He seems to me 10 b.
a statesman Of the Grover Cleveland stamp
and Mr.. Cleveland was, without doubt, the
best President our country ever had, out
side of Lincoln. II Mr. Cleveland had been
at the helm during the trying times OF tho
past few months certain diplomats would
proba' ly have received their walking papers
ere this. Sir Lionel Ssckvile- West, who rep
resented one of the esrth's great powers a.
Washington, it will be remembered, walked
the plank in short order At the behest o.
President Cleveland and the lion made
feeble roar for while, but there was no war
As a result Why? Because Great Britain
realized the fact that Mr. Cleveland meant
business and was not to he trfed with.

The Sussex Answer.

The one important detail which would
have rounded out Minister Won Jagow S
latest Sussex letter was unfortunately
omitted. Gcrmany's confession of wrong
doing would have carried more conviction
with the American public if the extent Of
the punishment inflicted on the submarine
commander at fault had been dlvuged.
In the Ancona case the Austro-Hungaran
Government also announced that the Of
Tending naval officer had been disciplined.
II Americans knew just what penalties
had been imposed in these two cases As
discouragers of rccklessness and careless
ness on the part Of submarine command
ers they would be in much better posi-
ton TO estimate the value of the promises
which the Teutonic governments have
given 10 respect neutral rights and safe
guard neutral lives.
The excuse made by the German officer
who sank the Arabic was hardly less in
genious than the excuse made by the Ger
man officer who sank the Sussex. The
former held tcnacously TO the theory that
the biz liner had turned out of its course
in order to ram him. The German gov
eminent admitted that he might have been
mistaken in this supposition, but said that
it was bound to uphold him whether he
WAS mistaken or not. Now it feels obliged
10 repudiate commanders who blunder
But the really important thing IN this
change of front is the sufiiciency Of the
punishment melted out If it is only half
hearted and perfunctory-not drastic and
exemplary-there will he little in it to
deter other submarine commanders from
taking chances and then producing in eX-
culpation either sketch, drawn from the
life, of different vessel or an after
thought plea of self-defence.
Germany promised after the Arabic was
torpedoed not to attack "liners," meaning
passenger vessels, without warning. The
Sussex was a passenger vessel, yet Ger
man submarine commander destroyed her
without warning on the theory that she
was either a troop transport or frelghter.
Now Germany has promised to put freight
ers. even in the war zone about Great
Britain and Ireland. on the same basis of
inviolability as liners. The rules of naval
warfare are to be lived up to, according
TO Berlins assurances, by warning all mer-
chantmen before destruction and sparing
the passengers and crews if no attempt is
made to resist or escape.
Yet on the same day on which our gov
ernment accepted these latest guarantees
as satisfactory the Cymric, a British
freghter, was torpedoed without warning
off the Irish coast. 1t has been obvious
for some time past either that Germany

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: 1t is quite possible to believe Mayor
Mitchels statement that in his suggestion
that tho Lusitania mass meeting be post
poned he acting absolutely on his own
initiative. Happily there arc few men in
power with the brszen effrontery to discrmi-
nate against digniied memorial 10 the Lusi-
tania dead and yet who short time ago had

The present war, which has enshrouded
nearly all Europe in a mantle of deep mourn

that the heart OF woman Is capable OF the
