WHERE TO HANG HIM

With those who would add the
weight of Mr.. Bryan's avoirdupois to
the burden of the traditional sour
apple tree" we disagree. We must
protest that the only appropriate
place and way to hang him is on the
back stairs wall of the State De-
partment's official suite, and in efhgy.
That portrait. faithfully portray
ing the Commoner sort of vacuity,
now about to be hung should look
down forever upon the spot wheRe
the peerless meddler whispered in
the ear of Dunba that all our diplo-
matte stiff talk was merely for pub
lie consumption and that what the
Administration was actually deter
mined on was peace at any price
especially honor.
The. present time, when the coun-
Try has been plunged into war, m
fact if not in name. as the result of
the misinformation SO sedulously
spread by Bryan and his disciples, is
also most appropriate for hanging
his picture on the scene Of his crime.
Let there be no delay on the part Of
the hanging committee.
The Washington times., 1917-03-03
AS TO AN EXTRA SESSION

Speaker Clark has given notice
that he will recognize no member of
the House to take up anything but
appropriation bills and conference re-
ports. The Senate has still to con-
slider the army bill, the sundry civil,
and the general deficiency bills, and
the notice that Senator La Toilette
would talk at length on the ship
arming bill indicates loss of time
that might be otherwise available to
the Senate on the big supply meas
ures. An extra session can only be
avoided now by unanimous consent.
But the revenue act has passed
and the navy bill appropriations will
be made Immediately available. The
failure of the supply measures or
any of them to pass will make an
extra session unavoidable, but as the
appropriations are not needed until
July l, it may not be deemed ad-
visable to call the extra session at
once.
The Tennessee legislature has
custom of splitting its regular ses-
sion with a months recess, so that
the members can go home and talk
to the folks about the bills that are
being considered. It is not a bad
idea.
When members of Congress who
have been mortally afraid of the Ger
man-American vote go back home for
a while, they may return with
The Washington times., 1917-03-03
RITTER UND ZIMMERMAN

A characteristic detail is to be
noted in the incident (now closed) Of
the seemingly culpable attitude Of
DR.. Paul Ritter, the Swiss minister,
toward the United States in favor Of
Germany. After DR.. Ritter had
made his explanation to Secretary
Lansing the latter authorized a
statement exonerating DR.. Ritter
from improper behavior.
But bark to the bawl from DR..
Ritter's principal. DR.. Zimmerman,
the German foreign minister, de-
clares that DR.. Ritter was at fault in
being the source of momentary trou-
bic between the United States and
the German government-that gov
eminent so famous for its high
minded faith and trustworthy be-
havior; this on the very eve of the
disclosure Of Germany's amazing at
tempt to seduce Japan and Mexico
into treacherous collusion with the
Kaiser's tottering cause.
It is hard work, bad work, any at
tempt to represent" Germany. For
nos decent individual or government
can really understand Germany's un-
natural attitude, much less make it
intelligible. to any less clouded in.
peHigence.
The Washington times., 1917-03-03

to be in imminent danger of attack.
Such action must be taken as an in
territorial bit of practical diplomacy.
President Wilson always goes
golfing when public matters press to
an extraordinary degree; he gets the
practical result of physical rehabili-
tation and the moral advantage of
exhibiting coolness in the very face,
of pressing trouble. Sometimes he
goes to get his eyeglasses mended,
but usually his relaxation is directly
concerned with sport.
The Dutch will do well to cheer up
and uphold their plucky Queen in
stead of attempting to censure her.
That were to be rude to a great lady,
disrespectful TO a responsible sover-
eign, and timid in degree unworthy
the great Dutch tradition.
The Washington times., 1917-03-03
WHAT ARE FORTS FORp

The tendency to use the Coast Ar
tillery Corps for everything on earth
except the purpose for which it was
created, namely, the manning Of the
seacoast Notifications, appears to be
growing. The garrisons were re-
duced some time ago to furnish men
for border duty. No sooner do these
special details get home than the
rumor emanates that other Coast
Artillery details will be placed on
board our merchantmen, when they
are finally armed, as gun pointers.
1t is true that there appears to be
no present danger of bombardment
for any of our ports. But neverthe-
less the Coast Artillery Corps should
not be disorganized or weakened to
provide emergency naval gunners; it
is highly specialized branch of the
national defense system that should
be kept at all times ready for the
particular work for which it was
created. 1t would be as wrongheaded
now not to keep the ports manned as
it would have been in the first place
NOT to have built them.
Instead of being depleted the
Coast Artillery Corps should be re-
cruited up to its full authorized
strength Of 81 ,423 men, of which it
now falls short 2,675.
The Washington times., 1917-03-03
MORE PRo-GERMAN THAN ZIM-
MERMANN-

When the Zimmerman note was
given to the world. the evidences of
It's: authenticity was overwhelming.
Followed in the Senate the statement
by Senator Swanson that the Presi-
dent had told him it Vas authentic
and was in the Possession of the
State Department Nevertheless
there was a, long debate in the Sen
ate over a resolution of Senator
Lodge asking the President to send
mis-. opinion to the Senate concern
ing the authenticity of~the note;
Stone and O'Gorman wanted also TO
know whether the note came into our
hands through the agency of some
belligerent government. In the
course of the debate, several Sena-
ors suggested the possibility of a
Drgery with the connivance of Great
ritain. No need to name them now.
hey must feel mortified at the con-
ession from German sources, as pub
shed today, that the note was sent
nd the plot was devised to draw
riendly nations into war with the
United States at the very moment
when Germany was protesting ex-
alted friendship.
There is a comical side to the sit
natioh in Germany's anxiety to learn
'ow. this Government got possession
f the note. Germany has so long
'rided herself on the efficiency of her
ar-hung spy system, and has been
o contemptuous of the innocence and
gullibility of the United States, that
it 1ust come with a shock to her
mind that we have some secret
service methods ourselves. The pur-
loiner of the chickens acknowledged
his guilt. What bothered him was
the question, Where the white folks
got their information.
