three. His name is Clemenceau.'
Short and Ugly Word

The reply was brief and en-
phatic. "M. Dcroulede, you have
lied"
A duel followed inevitably and
Deroulede was wounded.
Later, in a trial in the Paris
courts, 1t was proved that the evil
dence on which Deroulede had en-
deavored to connect Clemenceau
with the scandal was miserable
forgery and the forger confessed.
Clemcnceau was endowed with
the political mind at birth and he
was a republican by tradition, but
there was an event in his early life
which would have made him both
had he never thought of being
either.
Six generations Of his family be-
fore him were physicians In tho Ven
dee. His father was one OF tho most
eminent and highly respected doc
tors Of that part Of France. His
grandfather was IN active republi-
can during tho Revolution, and his
father kept up tho political tradi-
tions Of tho family, but after the

at last arranged on the basis that
Clemenceau undressed, dipped his
toes in the water and dressed again
and was supposed to have taken a
bath.
He has often related this incident
as an illustration of the force of
red tape in France and the sacro-
sanctity of whatever is termed re-
clement
As a Phrase Maker
Clemenceau has given two endur-
ing phrases to French politics. In
1891 Sardou's play "Thermidor"
was exciting the advanced radicals
of the Third Republic. The play
made out that the Revolution was
good at the beginning, with it's
rights of man, but bad in the middle,
with its terror. The danger of riot
was so great that parliament had
to decide whether republican
Frenchmen should be allowed to hear
such heresies at the state-subsidized
! Theatre Francais. Deputy Clemen-
ceau rose in his seat in the Chamber
and with his favorite one-fingered
gesture uttered one of his incisive
phrases.
"The Revolution is bloc from
which nothing can be taken away,
nothing rejected"
His adversaries threw up to him
the horrible misdeeds Of the revo-
lutionary tribunal. He replied:
'In politics there is no justice"
The play was stopped and the
"bloc" was born, both the name and
the policy.
The second phrase was brought
out when he was trying to down Con-
stans, who was keeping in prison a
Socialist candidate for parliament,
Paul Lafargue. Clemenceau de-
clared in one of his speeches that
the concentration between the radi-
cal and socialist republic and the
opportunist republic was broken
forever. From this was born the
party name of Radical Socialist
later to become the largest single
group in the Chamber.
1t was his intense and unfailing
opposition to opportunism that made
him "The Tiger" and "The Killer of
Ministries" Clemenceau prides him
New-York tribune., 1920-01-25
By Fred B. Pitney

INCE the beginning Of the
Third Republic it has been
~ the fashion to speak of
French politics as kaleido-
scopic, and in a country where
eighteen months has been long life
for q ministry and more than one
has lasted no longer than two
months the appellation does not
seem inappropriate.
The man who more than any other
has been credited with the respon-
nbilty for this quality in French
political affairs has been Georges
Clemenceau. His activity has been
such through half a century of poll
tics that he is best known as "The
Tiger" and "The Killer of Minis
tries"
And now the man who built the
kaleidoscope is its victim. He
himself is the most dramatic figure
in the latest startling change, a
change that is, indeed, astounding,
for it seems to condemn him who
was so recently the idol of victory
to Q retirement in which he will
soon be as placidly forgotten as last
wears fallen leaves.

politics and devoted himself to the
practice of his profession at Nantes.
Young Georges, who was also
destined to be a doctor and was
already studying medicine, was
seventeen years old when one morn
ing the gendarmes knocked at his
fathers door in Nantes, arrested
him and took him to prison at Mar
seilles. There was no explanation
Ten days later they brought him
back and left him at his door in
Nantes, still with no explanation. In
tho mean time his eldest daughter
had gone mad from grief.
The ultimate explanation forth
coming Of this arbitrary act was
that after tho Orsini affair n new
law had given tho Emperor power
to arrest, exile or Danish to Algeria
any suspected person without trial
and without any formnlity what
ever. Tho republican DR.. Clomen-
ceau was suspected of part in tho
attempt on tho Emperor's life and

up in the air. That kept me from
sleeping. SO, night after night, l
lay awake pondering over what
had studied during the day, until it
was ineffaceably fixed in my mind
In that way l rapidly mastered my
tasks"
Clemenceau went to Paris to fin
ish his medical studies, but while
there busted himself with politics
and wrote in the various journals of
the Latin Quarter, whose existence
was alternately tolerated and sup
pressed by the imperial caprice. In
1862 he took it upon himself to sum-
mon the students to 60 to the Place
de la Bastille to celebrate the an
niversary Of February "a, 1848. For
this he was arrested and taken to
the Conciergerie and the next morn
ing, just after breakfast, was trans
ferred to the Mazas prison to serve
his sentence of two months.
According to the rules of Mazas.
every newcomer must take a bath
Immediately he crosses the thresh-
old. Clemenceau refused to obey this
rule. He had just eaten. He was a
doctor and knew the danger of a
bath taken with a full stomach. He
was as obstinate in refusing to obey
the rule Of the prison as the author..
ties were insistent that he should

Had met him I probably would

Cassagnac declined to fight. He
gave as his reason that he had given
up fighting and entered on the phase
Of work ! retorted that it looked
as though he had entered 'on the
phase Of backing down. and there
the matter ended"
One Of his most famous duels was
that with Paul Deroulede. which
grew out Of the French Panama
Canal scandal. Deroulede, the mon
archist, was always a bitter enemy
Of Clemenceau, the republican, and
when 1t became possible to besmirch
Clemenceau with tho Panama mud
D4roulAde seized upon the oppor-

self on belonging to the tradition
Of the French Revolution and does
not forget that in the time of the
Jacobins, patriot and republican
were synonymous words. One Of
the most conspicuous ornaments of
his workroom is a large portrait Of
Mirabeau.
Clemenceau wished for a repub-
lican republic and opposed his in
transigeant principles to the policy
of concession. Thence came his
ceaseless struggles against the min
listers who drew their inspiration
from the new doctrine, and thence
followed the downfall of Cabinet
after Cabinet.
Three Portraits
There are three portraits of Gle
menceau during his long period of
struggle. L. Andrieus says:
II met Georges Clemenceau for
the first time in 1860 at the Latin
Quarter in newspaper Office. I at
once noticed the young student: his
convex and prominent forehead, the
keen and penetrating gaze Of his
dark eyes under bushy and boldly
penciled eyebrows, his heavy mus
tache falling upon the ironical lips
produced the impression Of will,
energy and intelligence"
Augustin Filon describes him
twenty years later: :
