PARIS, March 18.-Lord Robert
Cecil replied directly this evening. in
a conference with newspaper CORE
spondents, to American criticisms of
the league of nations based on the fear
that the league might at some time
decide upon action which would in
1rlnge the Monroe Doctrine He said
1t was specifically provided that action
could result only if the decision of
either the executive council or the
DUuy OF delegates was unanimous
iheretore, since the United States
formed part of both bodies, it was
contrary vote In order to make action
impossible.
IN effect, no international action bv
the league was possible which was on
posed by the United States, save ac-
uon against the United States itself
which, Lord Cecil said smilinrlv'
might be left out of consideration. He
continued:
If the view is to be maintained that
we must nave a watertight division
between America and Europe, any con-
certed action in which America takes
part would infringe directly or indi-
rectly the Monroe Doctrine. saw. re-
spectfuily, that l should regard such
doctrine as disastrous for the future
of the world. America to-day holds A
more commanding world position than
Great Britain did after the Napoleonic
wars and cannot disinterest herself
now without being untrue to her re-
sponslbilities to the world and to her
self"
asked whether a specific provision

What is worth in anything, so much money
as twill bring.-Butler.
D1scRED1rED WEATHER PROPHETS.

The astronomical spring begins next week.
For, 10, winter is nearly past; the time of the
singing of birds is come and the voices of the
winged creatures will soon be loud in the land.
And who ever in this latitude saw such winter
as this has been, such an unbroken succession
of sunny, bland, delightful daysa There has
been nothing raw or rigorous about it. The
traditional winter, ''cloathed all in frize, with
hoary head and icy fang and churGsh Gliding
wind has not even given glimpse of himself.
And it is all inexplicable. Nobody has sug-
gestion in way of explanation, and the queer
est thing about it that all the prognosticators-
the old settler, the goose bone, the woodchuck
and the hornet-were reported as in agreement
last fall that the winter would be long and bois
terous bleak and fierce.
Some people never did consider them infal-
lible signs. Ability to push a tunnel in the
earth does not make meteorologists of wood
chucks any more than of human engineers
As for the goose bone, we never pretended to
understand its method Of forecasting or at
tached much more Importance to it than to the
promises of wishbones. They might come true
and it did no harm to hope so; but there was
no dependable evidence that they ever did or
would. On the whole, therefore, we are in
clined to think that this phenomenal winter
leaves the whole brood of weather sharps bank
rupt in reputation representations.

GEORGE r. EDMUNps.

New York World: A senator OF
the United States for twenty-five
years following the civil war, the
national career of the late George
F. Edmunds covered a period extend
ing from reconstruction to populism

his contemporaries at the beginning
of his service in 1866 few remain.
and most Of the men who with him
gave distinction to the senate I'D to
the day Of his retirement in 1891
have long since passed away.
Americans have always regarded
Mr.. Edmunds as typical senator.
He had profound convictions and he
was learned in law and in govern
ment. Like his longtime friend and
political opponent, Allen G. Thur
man. he was magisterial in manner.
He lived to be 81, but patriarchal
honors were bestowed upon him by
younger men when he was still far
short of old age. At a time when
partisanship was bitter and he one

he had universal respect, and during
his years OF retirement he was at
tended, as was his right, by rever-
ence, honor and troops of friends.
1t is recalled that Mr. Edmunds
voted for the conviction Of President
Johnson at his impeachment trial,
and that as a member of the electoral
commission he favored Hayes as
against Tilden; but he was the au-
thor of the act which put an end to-
polygamy in Utah; he and Senator
Hoar were the principal authors of
the Sherman antitrust law, and his
learning and his reasonableness con-
tributed greatly to most of the bene-
fetal legislation OF a generation

to be weighty as. those now confront

Americas Strength.

no league of nations to protect her
or to protect the peace of the world.
She can make such commercial
treaties as she desires, for every
nation must do business with Ameri-
ca. She can prevent wars on the
continent Of Europe or in Asia-if
it is to be the policy of this country
to interfere across the waters---by
merely refusing to export to the war
ring countries or to the guilty coun-
try; provided always she is strong
enough in military way to prevent
the warning countries separately or
together from attacking her by force.
She can gain nothing by turning her
freedom of action over to a council
composed of one American and eight
foreigners, with the American sub
jected to flattery such as is being
