SMALL MEN.

Among the moving pictures which
have been exhibited recently was
one which had for it's purpose the
portrayal of "the man with a peanut
soul.": In other words, the small
two-by-three fellow, the stingy,
grasping chap who is never known to
give up dollar unless it is for the
purpose Of getting about three back
in exchange for it. He is the same
one who always opposes real pro-
gress; who is never identified with
any movement started for the benefit
Of his city or its people and who evil
IDENTIFY begrudges the dollars the law
compels him to pay to support the
schools and other public institutions
of his community.
1t is to be hoped that Alexandria
has none of that kind of men. If it
has it would be good stroke of bust
ness for the city to purchase their
property, even at fancy price, and
also present them with a railroad
ticket to other parts.

guest at. the interment of a traiy
great but misguided nation.
When Ambassador Gerard drew
near tho shores Of america he let it
be known that he had impertalis mat
tiers to communicate to President
Wilson. Reading between the hnes'
j. looked to us that he was ianxions
lest Mr.. Wilson would declare war
before having an interview with MN.
We may rest assured that but little
Of what was communicated to the
President by Ambassador Gerard
was published. The slim accounts OF
conditions in Germany added ou1
little to what We knew already. 1t
was to the effect that a certain per-
centaee Of the people of the land hae
about all they needed, while another
percentage was upon short allow
ance and there were others who were
enduring hardships in the way OF
deprivations. Does any thinking per
son suppose that this was all the am
bassador was so anxious to impart TO
the President of the United States ?
No. matters far more interesting
were spoken sub rosa which the next
few weeks, probably days, Will make
clear. 1t will be remembered that
members of the Ambassadors party
were more voluble in their accounts
of conditions in Germany.
Did Mr.. Gerard know that the Rus
sian revolution was SO near and that
others like it are inevitable in Ger
many and Austria? Was he aware
of the fact that the death knelf Of
the Romanoffs, Hohenzollerns, ano
Hapsburgs had been struck, and that
the next few days would show them
to be houses of cards?
To bring all this to conclusion
is President Wilson waiting for the
scorpion to sting itself to death? /!
he waiting to be a guest at the fun
eral?
Are the well.meaning German
people about to capture this monster
scorpion and deprive it of its sting
by breaking off Prussianism W.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 12.-With the
prospect OF peace parleys definitely
eliminated by the Entente all eyes ars
now centred on President Wilson and
the next move expected from the
White House.
There is every indication that the
President will not admit failure and
permit matters to rest long in their
present unsatisfactory status
1t is believed certain that he will
seek an immediate opportunity to re-
ply to the rebukes administered to him
in the Entente and Belgian notes. But
how he is to accomplish this is puzzllng
the best trained diplomats.
Will he frankly press the peace is
sue along German lines and seek to
obtain an outline of terms from tho
Central Powers?
VIII he repudiate the peace ideas
which the Entente and Central Powers
both read into his note and will he
place this Government in the position
of being maligned because it was mis-
understood?
VIII he turn u the threatening sub

sire to see the conflict closed and put
the United States in the position Of
having acted primarily for its own

in dealing with the de facto Government
of Mexico have been decided upon by
President Wilson and will be announced
after the meeting in New York Monday

against the refusal to permit him to re
