PARIS. August 14.-This week two
events characterize and compare that
policy followed by France and that fol-
lowed by England concerning Russia
While France took the initiative in rec
ognizing Gen. Wrangel. Russian anti
bolshevist leader. the British govern
ment representatives, accepting the mere
sketch given by kameneff of bolshevist
activities and propositions against Po-
land, hasten without consulting the
allies to notify Warsaw that they con-
slider these bolshevist suggestions sat
France naturally cannot indorse this
Wrangel. Anti-Red Warrior.
Gen. Wrangel, the warrior statesman,
is unalterably opposed to bolshevist the
'ories and personalities and has raised
more than one hundred thousand men
whose officers already have fought the
reds under Denikin. But Wrangel diff
fers from Denikin in that his person.
atty dominates his staff and imposes
those political views necessary to sue
cess. Thus HIS supposters are imbued
with sincere democratic spirit and free
frofn. the errors finally leading to the
downfall of Denikin and Kolchak
During the recent troubles he did
not seek to return land seized by the
peasants to former proprietors dis
possessed by the revolving people, but
guaranteed security of tenure to pres
ent holders. He foreshadows for
Russia an effective government, en-
abling the great nation to resume
functioning as such. declaring him
self ready to convoke the constituent
assembly when possible. He has re-
established the zemstvos. has an
nounced his intention to respect en-
gagements undertaken by the former
Russian government, which means
the payment of Russia's honest debts,
and recent military successes COM

relieving the Polish front by holding

France Within Agreement.
The determination of France to fur
nish him with necessary arms, am
muntion and supplies is emphasized
by Millerand's declaration of an even
more essential moral support through
the formal recognition by France of
his government in Russia. This is
no violation of any French agree
ment with Britain's premier. The
Hythe conference left France fire., to
make the decision which she now an
nounces. Premier Millerand has q
firm foundation for his statement that
he has not gone beyond limits agreed
upon.

PLENTY OF ROOM IN TRUNK

Noted New Highlander.

Following the discovery, not long
ago, of an interesting old trunk In
which Daniel Webster carried his legal
papers comes the finding of another
old trunk that George Nixon Briggs.

grimaged from the town of Hudson.
N. Y, to Adams. Mass, there to begin
studying law. Governor Briggs has
not remained so fixed in memory as
Daniel Webster, but he was a famous
man in his time, and is interesting
today because at the national tenn
perance convention in 1882 he took
stand for total abstinence. Later, as
president of the Massachusetts Legis-
latiye Temperance society he marched
In procession through the streets of
Boston, although on this occasion there
is no record that he carried his trunk.

little ones common a hundred years
ago, and Governor Briggs In Inter

The modern word mugwump is de-
rived from the Algonquin mug
quomp." meaning great man. a
chief, and is said to have been used
among the Indians and whites Of
Massachusetts, and Connecticut in the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
The word was later used in humor-
Gus, or satirical sense, and was ap-
piled to person who thought him
self OF consequence and importance
In this sense the word was long in
local use and often appeared in print
In U. s. political history the term was
first applied in 1884 to the Independent
members Of the Republican party who
openly refused to support the nomi-
nees Of the party for president Of the
United States. and either voted for
the Democratic or Prohibition party or
abstained from voting. The word was
not generally known In any sense be-
fore that time. but 1t caught the popu-
lar fancy and was at once accepted
by the independents themselves a. an
honorable title.

WON FAME As ADMINISTRATOR
Sir William Maesreoor viii Long Be
Remembered for His Good Work
in West Africa.

Sir William Macgreg0r was NOT the
least of the bits of good luck which
this empire owes to the Scottish strain
of it. In the far->unlered areas OF
West Africn and the Western Pacific
he achieved distinction which will not
pass.
The world know more of him as Pa

ernor of Lagos. but to many Europeans
in West Africa, and to those folk Of
long memories, the African races, he
will always be Macgregor OF Lagos, the
pioneer sanitarian who began proc
esses which have made Lagos place
livable for the European and more
livable than ever before to its teem-
ing African population.
The pedant may say that "circum-
spice" scarcely applies where the bene-
factor has only cleansed air and roads
and purified water sources; neverthe-
less, to no man could 1t he attached
more fifty than to Macgregor for his
work in that steady hive of activity.
The natives had a real affection for
him, for they knew he believed in
them, and Africans. like most other
sons of Adam, esteem that even above
good drains and pure water. He had
very clear appreciation of the ter
rible danger of German rule in the
tropics just because of It's thorough
ness
There are endless stories of him on
the coast. One is of an official who,
after tour in the bush, told the gov
ernor of an exceptional juju he had
