BllYAN’S “DESERVIN6” DEMDCRATS

All America is laughing or crying at the exposure of

the manner in which Secretary of State Bryan seeks to re- ward “Deserviug Democrats" by forcing them nolens vol- ens on foreign countries. in the course of an investigation concerning the action of the American Minister to the re- public of Santo Domingo, a letter was made public in which Mr. Bryan appealed to the American Receiver of Customs there, Mr. Walker W. Vick, for positions “to reward de- serving Democrats." Lest we may be accused under pre- sent circumstances of unnecessarily applying the moral, we prefer to submit to our readers the views of two of the foremost “organs” of public opinion in the United States. Ilrooklyn Daily Eagle and Colliers Weekly.

The first named says: “Extracts from a letter written by William J. Bryan to

Walker W. Vick. American Receiver of Customs in Santo Domingo:

‘Can you let me know what positions you have at your

disposal with which to reward deserving Democrats? Whenever you desire a suggestion from me in regard to a man for any place there call on mc.

‘You have had enough experience in politics to know

how valuable workers are when the campaign is on and how difficult it is to find suitable rewards for all the deserv- ing. I do not know to what extent a knowledge of Spanish is necessary-for employees. Let me know what is required, together with the salary, and when appointments src likely to be`made.’ `

“lt should he remembered that the positions desired

for 'deserving Democratsf who are also campaign work- ers, a'nd,thercfore, worthy of 'suitable rewards’ are part and parcel of the Dominican customs service and salaried out of the Dominican revenues. We submit that, as a prac- tical politician who knows how to organize andmalntain a machine, Mr. Bryan need ask no odds of Mr. Roger Sul- livan of illinois or Mr. Charles Fi Murphy of New York, both of whom he has upon occasion vehemently denounc- ed." ’

Collin-r‘s Weekly thus treats the revelation: “Santo Domingo is a little country on the island of

Haiti, down below Cuba, of some eighteen thousand .square mlles;`.and about half a. million population-all shades. Santa- Domingo was much harassed by revol\itlous'up to 1907, ‘fwhen Roosevelt appointed n collector of customs and our Government assumed a sort of halfway guardianship over it. If ever there was a trust relationship. this is one; if ever there was a chanceto set an example of good work. of honest and efficient. administration, the chalice and the duty are ours there. But this is the place where William Jennings Bryan tried to edge in his job-hunting Democrats, the faithful brethren of' his niany campaigns. The contrast between the men thut ure needed in Santo Domingo and the political hack workers Bryan put there is fairly comic in its breadth. This is clearly the explanation of Plndell of Peoria. and of all the other second-rate politicians that Bryan foisted on our disrupted diplomatic service. Were Minister Rockhili and others like him retired only to make room for these campaign spiclers and corn-belt Iiannns? lt is a great weakness of Woodrow Wilson's Administration that his lack of' vigorous personal contacts, hirabsorption in abstractions leaves him defcnccless against this petty and sordid trading in appointments by those' under him. As for Bryan, the country is pretty clearly disgusted with the contrast between the high-flown ethical pretensions of his famous Chatsuqua speeches and the everyday real- ity of his political practices. lt is like some old deacon who will sniflie about yesterday’s "precious sermon" and then proceed to dicker for Widow Brown’s meadowlaud. This is not modern business. and Bryan in Santo Domingo is not modern politics.

“It is idle- for the enemies of Bryan and the Administ-

ration to claim that there was anything .sinister in a finan- cial way in the Santo Domingo matter. Indeed, that whole

affair has turned out to be a tempest in a teapot. The on-'

ly important result of it is the unearthing of Ilryan's letter which roveulad him as having the mind of a rather cheap

spoilsman and being intent upon jobs for ‘deserving Dem-.

ocrats' at a time when our foreign affairs were suffering by his insttention and incapacity. The minister whom Bryan appointed, James M. Sullivan. was not dishonest. He was, as one of the witnesses expressed it ‘just a big slob’. }-Ie did sit around the legution in his uudershirt and he did take barefoot walks in the grass. These were, like Bryan’s letter, lapses in dignity but not in integrity. It is wrong to infer too much about Bryan from the revelation in his letter. lie really means all that he says on the lec- ture platform. ills idealism is that of n self-hypnotized evangelist.. indeed. platform evangelism was the career dignity, taste, and :icrfurncy of mind was a cruelty to him and an' injustice to the country. lie is as out of place in the State Department ns Billy Sunday or Pudercwski.

"Mr. Brysu's career illustrates the high cost of n

place in the sun. So long as‘he was a failure he was a brill- iant success. It was Mr. I3rynn's free-silver eloquence as much perhaps as any one force that stiffened McKinlr~y‘s backbone as defender of sound money. As 'Boy 0rator,' as missionary of popular government, as vigorous defender of all the moraiistic trulsms,-'as a candidate for the Pres- idency perennialiy turned down and percnnially cheerful. Mr. Bryan .deserved well of the Republic. ironically enough. ,his crowning public service, his action at Balti-

inorlliii making sure Woodrow Wilson's nomination. mark-

ed ilNbeglnniug of the end. For`Bryan'.s public usefulness ouded where his public service began. Perhaps he was discouraged from making a real effort to be an efllcient Secretary of State by the thought that men like- Jefferson,

Marshall. Monroe. Clay, Webster. Calhoun, Seward, Bayard. l Blaine, Olney. I-lay, and Root had preceded him. That at-_i

taiuuiout to _high odlce marks not the crowning of a career but the chance to carve one out or opportunity has been too subtle an idea for Mr. Bryan. ills idea of administer- ing the foreign relations of o great nation in stirring times

and the terms of settlement, and many of the most optimis- tic sec in recent events in Germany an early collapse, to be brought about by famine conditions in Germany. In this the prophets are at sea. There are as yet no signs of col- lapse, not even signs of discouragement on the part of Germany. Her present activities both in the east and west indicate rather that she will carry out her original threat to fight to the last drop of her blood. But there will be an end and. a settlement. The end will be when Germany asks for it and the settlement will be what Great Britain, France and Russia will choose to make it. Quite'early in the conflict President Wilson tendered his offices in bringing it to.a close by intervention and mediation Since then many things have happened to embitter the Allies against Germany. and now it seems altogether pro- bable that all' offers of mediation will be definitely _ and decisively rejected, and that Germany will not get peace till she asks it of those who are alone in a. position to grant the request. There is not the slightest probability that any terms will be offered to her. She has so unpre- cedentedly, so gratuitously. and so unjustitlably violated the most humane conventions and the most ordinary do- cencies of modern warfare that her offences cannot be cou- doned. She has challenged her fate, and now she must drain the cup to the last and bitterest drops.

As Great Britain, France, and Russia are carrying on

this war in the interest of neutrals, and, in order to main- tain the sanctlties of treaties, are incurring enormous loss- es and suffering cruel inilictions they could easily have avoided, it is not at all likely they will ask, or even nc- ccpt, any offers of help to makc up the bill of costs or ns- sess thc resulting damages. The bill will he exemplary when it is completed, and no time will be lost in present- ing itwhen it is requested, for the assessment has been in process of calculation since the very beginning of the war. There will be no elements of relation in the terms of peace granted, but tho penalty must bo made both np- proprlatc and adequate to the wrongs perpetrated. There will, be cash indemultles to Belgium, France, Russia. and Servia; there will be conquered colonies to Great Ilrltalu, France and Portugal; there will be ccssions of German and Austro-liungariart territory-to Belgium, France, Scr- via, and Russia; there will bc rc-luction and limitation of armaments, with acceptance of some common tribunal in- vested with powcr to .enforce its decrees by practical and reasonable sanctions. flfrom present appearances this will be the outcome of thewar butthe end is not yet.

WHERE GERMANS EXCEL

_ -.. _.4.°*l*°'”

The Germans lutvc excelled, and still excel in many

things, and notwithstanding the strained feelings occasion- ed by the war we slillremembcr that the brand, “made in Germany" was not lohg since regarded as evidence of a certain kind of superiority. in those lines on which they have specialized it must be admitted that they had few superiors. Although the war has necessitated the aban- donment of _many specialties, particularly industrial ones, there are still left them a few choice cullings which they are in at position to pursue regardless of the bloodshed and the horrors incident to war. One of these, perhaps the one which stands out _most prominently over the smoke and the din of battle, is lying. Lest the reader be shocked at the abrupt introduction of this ugly \vord, we hasten to give a. sample from one of the leading papers in Berlin, “The Tageblatt." After the “baby ‘ltil1ing” raid on Scarborough and Hartlepool on the English Coast, this is what The Tageblatt said: "What we want is to get the British fleet in the open against us. That was our object in the bombardment, and so long as the fleet continues in its cowardly way to skulk in its hiding place we will hope that many more English towns are shelled by German cruisers." Afterwards when the German fleet sighted the "cowardly" British ships and ran away but could not run fast enough and their largest cruiser was sunk and others damaged, the Tageblatt. and other German papers pictured it to the deluded German public as a great naval victory for the German fleet, two British warships being sunk and the others driven off. '

The; Germans have succeeded, since the war began.

in persuading their people that the German army was

winning all along the line and that the German fleet could not get at the British because the latter were hiding.

Some day, and before long, the German public will

discover that the current history of the war as it was "made in Germany" was the most superb bit of falsehood and deception ever perpetrated and then, as a certain Portuguese writer once said in connection with thc even- tual "discovery" of the Kaiser by the German people. “there will not be enough .stones from Lorraine to Pomer- ania to stone this counterfeit Moses.

Then, of course. there is the case of

‘ WASHINGTON. Feb. 2.-That -"Pisa is Pigs," is an old aphorlsm,hut that "Pigs is War," is something new.

This gigantic European war. accord-

ing to the different parties to it, was -calmed by several hundred different events. Some people say it wus start- ed when Sir. Edward Goetohen, British ambassador st Berlin. discharged his German cook; others say it was Ger- man militarlsrn and many believe Rus- sia started the conflict by mobilizing against Austria. And by this.time, most everyone has forgotten that the war really began when Austria re- fused the acknowledgement of Ser- viu to her ultimatum. '

Well, this ste-ry of “Pigs is War,"

goes back to the time when Servia and Austria were flndln it~ difllcult

mutual border from throwing stones at each other.

Some three years ago, according to

'officials of the Austro-Hungarian em- bassy. the armies of Austria and Ser- via almost came to blows over the shipment of pigs from Belgrade and other Servlau cities to Bosnia. Servia insisted that all pigs, sick pigs and well ones, should be sold in Bos- ina. Austria said pigs having cholera must not be admitted to Austrian slaughter houses. Because of the pre- valence of cholera in Servia. this Aus- trian order interfered with Servia‘s exports of hogs. Numerous skirm- ishes along . the border betwoen hog shippers, hog buyers and hog ruisers became so acute that the foreign of- fices of the two governments had to take the matter up. After some ex- changes of diplomatic notes thc mat- 'ter was adjusted.

From that time up until thc assass-

ination of the Arch-Duke of Austria and his wife at Serajava, Bosnia, the _exporters and importers of those twc countries were flghtingcver the ship ments of pigs. Servia never “got 'over" the attitude-pf Austria.

So, pigs it was, that started this

war. ._ ' _ - =

PUT TO FLIGHT BY SIGHT OF

CAME-RA. ,

An amusing story of how a German

:tirman wus put to flight by the sight of a camera is told by ‘1Eye-witness."

During the past-week..he says, there

has been there encounters in the air between British and =German acro- planes, as a result of which thc hos- tile mnchine in each case has been forced to go down in the German lines.

On one ‘occasion our machine chased

n Taube. and tho oliservorensptietl his automatic pistol at the enemy, with- out any visible result, ut about 150 ft. range.

I-le then proceeded to' take :1 photo-

graph and the appearance of the cnm- ero seems to have nlnrmcd the Gor- man, who ut once lied.

Upon another occasion a somewhat

difllcult situation arose when ri bomb which was being dropped caught in n string sud remained suspended three or four feet below the aeroplane. There was no wny of rcuchiug the bomb and it was impossible to land.

Finally the observer kicked u hole

through the floor of the fuselage, i. c., body of the acroplnnc-hooked the string with his foot and shook it uu- til the bomb fell off.

'1‘wo stories ure currcut. concerning

the French, which illustrate thc spirit that aulmates all ranks.

One is that xi private who. when

carrying a despatch, came upon a trench containing fifty Germans. lie

summoned them to surrender. l

Thinking that he must be the lend-

or of a considerable force close be- hind him. the Germans held up their hands. He then shouted to some ot' his comrades, who were in n trench at

Gemianu wore all made prisoners,

The second story is that of a cer-

tain famous French regiment, which had been fighting incessantly for some days, gaining a llttlc ground every day until it had worked its way close to thc main trench held by the enemy.

It wus then this roglnient’s turn

to be rellevedr but its members sent a request. that ihcy should be permit- ted to stay one day longer, ami thus gain the glory of driving the enemy 'om his position. After describing how dlfllcult all

operations are rendered by the mud, "Eye-Witness" illustrates his re- marks as followsz-

"It is reported that in one place the

mud is so bad that in n recent action between the French and the Germans neither side could fire their rifles, and clubbod them or fought with shovels or pickaxes."

TO FILL HOT WATER BAG

A hot water bsg is very often used

in-the home to relieve many a pain and ache, and yet it is ineffectual if it is not filled properly. The desired effect is obtained only by the heat of the water in the bal!. as we all know, and yet few of us consider that un- less the air is expelled from the bag we do not get the full benefit of the heat. Air is a non-conductor of both heat and cold.

To expel the air quickly and easily

from the bag, a nurse gives the follow- ing advice: After having filled the bug with sufficient water, be sure' - _that you do not make the bag too heavy for a tender par; of the body; twist lt. holding the twisted part firmly in the one hand while you quickly screw thc cap on tightly. Then hold the bag by the bottom and shake vigorously, to make sure there is no lcakngeat the cap. it is important that every hot water bag should have a nice, warm cover. Outing flannel is very good for this purpose. This cover can be kept

clean, and it feels very much, nicer next the skin than would the rubber of the bug.
