Ill IS NOW RECALLED Saw Great Political Fact of Modern Times That America Spoke Knglisli. I NDKRSTANI>ING PKIt MAX KNT J'Ord Nortlicliffe Declares Present Union of Sentiment Itetwccn U. S. and Great Britain Will Not Prove a Tiling Ephemeral. IIY VISCOUNT NOHTHCMrrii, lirealrtt Xcivupniier I'ro prlrtor. BONDON, December 15.?Bisrnarc<c was oiico aaltctl what ho oonsiilcrnl the most important political faet of iiii'ocra times. He replieJ: vTii3 fa0'. that North America speaks English." Bismarck, In spite of his antiquated theories of government and his short sighted acceptance of the militarist policy regarding Alsace-Lorraine, was dearly a man who saw what was com ing. At the time when ho nave this answer there did not appear to bo any particular significance in the fact that the language of North America is English. What is happening to-day proves him to have been a far-seeing prophet of events. It Is always dillleult to forecast what history will have to say upon any given incident. But 1 do not think there can be an;* doubt that our descendants will read in their history-books that a most vnluable and permanent out come of the great war in Europo was a bettor understanding between tho people of the L'nlted States and the people from which the nmin stem of American colonists sprang. Britons generally who have not been across the Atlantic are too ready to talk as if tho American people were of what the present Cabinet is an example? is loosely termed "Anglo-Saxon" stock. Those who are leaders among them? are often mostly of British d23cent, it is true. Tho persistence of Bri'lsh names among the Americans who arc best known in England is apt to mis lead superficial observers. They think of President Wilson, President Taft, President McKinley, President Cleve land, President Grant, President kin coin. Thoy thinlc of Financial Secre tary McAdoo and Secretary of War Baker, Secretary of the Navy Daniels, Secretary of the Interior Bane, Secre tary Houston, Colonel House and , others. At the heads of the biggest businesses, of schools and universities, of largo industrial undertakings, are also to be found, more often than not, j descendants from British stock. j NOT PKOPBK1J MA I.N BY IIY IIHITISII STOCK But !t Is a delusion to suppose, as 1 many Englishmen still do, that the l'nlted States Is still peopled entirely, or even mainly, by men and women of j British Mood. The American popula- I tion Is a mixture and It gains by bf-| ing a mixture. Just as the British rise | ga n<d In the ages of its formation by j being composed of various elements,] Nnrmat., Celtic and Danish, in addi- j tIon to the Anglo-Saxon. The British ( Is still the strongest individual strain i in the population of the United States, j though for many years before the war the other strains had. by means both ote?n and secret, striven to displace It. Nof the possibility of that ambition being gratified has passed away. The war will do more, it has done more already, than any other event could have tlon^ lo mold the different Amerl can rncial elements into a nation united and distinct. It 111 not be an "Anglo-Saxon" nation, but Its lan gunce will be English. its legal and political forms will he derived fro"] 1 those of the British Isles, and it will carry on many of the best Anglo-Sax- , on traditions. i As Bismarck anticipated correctly, the fact of its being an English-speak- j Irig nation will have a very strong influence upon the history of the world, j I'XDKHTAK I.\(i IS KAIt Kit O.II BEING KI'IIHM Bit A I. Kor this coming together of the American people with the peoples of the five Independent states whlch cotn pose the British empire, the united Kingdom. Canada. Australia. New Zealand and South Africa--this alli ance of the Knglish-speaking communi ties for the purpose of upholding law and order, and the right to self-gov ernment. and respect for treaties and engagements, and fair-dealing *}* small countries?this understanding cannot be nermHtc-d to pass away as a mere phase of international rela tions. It is loo valuable, too Impor tant for that to be Its fate. The French poet and statesman, I.amartlne. called tho French rovolu- , tion "a date in the human mind." He meant by this that It was one of those events which alter, not alone institu- ' lions, but also modes of thoucrht. I he armies which Carnot organized for victory were fighting for something more than their right to be governed democratically ami not monarchlcally. Tliev were fighting for a cause dimly ncrcelvrd to be the cause <?f mankind. IThe idea at the back of the revolu tion was that of a square deal for everybody, small as well as great, ami not onlv for individuals, but for na tions. The very same Idea Hes nt the bnck of the American and British participation In this war. As your ' President so clearly and happily ex pressed it in a speech to Congress nearlv a year aeo, the price of peace is full impartial justice. Justice done at every point and to every nation. ??You catch with ine," President Wil son continued, in a passage of moving beauty and power, "the voices of nu manitv that are in the air. They grow dailv 'more audible, more articulate, more persuasive and they come lrom the hearts of men everywhere." WHY A It E Til 13 SMAM.HU PK.OI'I.IOS t'OVSIDEREnr Many people wonder what means all the bother about the Jugo-Slavs **n.d the Ossecho-Slovaks. Why has their cause been taken up by American and British statesmen alike? Because tho voices of humanity declare that the claims of small nations to self-govern ment must be heeded. Neither Brit ain nor the United States had any thing to gain by taking part In the European conllict. They would have trained much by keeping oUt of it. But their sense of right atid Justice would not lcl them keep out of it. That is what makes their alliance "a dato In the human inlml." It has taken them a long time to come together. Much misunderstand ing, many preudices havo had to be smoothed away. The Americans hated the Knglish because they beat them in the War of Independence. It is always the victors who keep up sore ness a longer time than the worsted. Tho English affected to despise the Americans for their attachment to ma terial interests. Dickens wrote un justlv and unkindly, for the only time in liis life, about his visits to tho Pulled Stales. Beigh Hunt trimmed his sail to the breeze of popular feel ing when he wrote: "I cannot get It out of my head that Americans aro Englishmen with the poetry and ro mance taken out of them, and that I here is one great counter built along their coast from north to south, be hind which they are standing like so many linen-drapers."

A Til ON I /.I.Mi A TTITUDB We have long since dropped our ab surdly patronizing attitude, and I am told that your school histories no long er represent us as enemies of llbertv and lair play. I rem.#iber being much struck at Chicago last year by hear ing a very prominent citizen say that he had fortunately escaped "tho ha ired of England which almost every American boy learns at his mother's liiieo." The American boy is, I hope and believe, now getting a more ac curate view of British character, and the English have, I know, corrected tiicfr misapprehensions as to tho de votion of tho Americans to trade. Wo know that you have taken tho advice which Andrew D. White, who was aft erwards American ambassador in St. Petersburg and Berlin, gavo In a very notable address delivered by him In 1S83 as the first president of Cornell University.

WASHINGTON, December ir,?Scna I Lor I'onicrenc. of Ohio, has filed in ! the Senate a. minority report from the ' | Committee on Privileges and Elections demanding a further investigation of the disloyalty charges against Sena tor Robert M.

Senator Walsh, of .Montana, I the other dissenting .member, did not I concur in Senator Pomerene's report. I In Senator Pome rent's report the plea, i Is made that -ill the evidence needed i to enable the committee to pass upon | the questio'n of Senator La Follette's i disloyalty has not been obtained and j that the investigation should be con tinued until the entiro case is heard. 1 "All we mean to say." reads the I report, "is thai in tho present state of the record we are perfectly clear that (here i-hould be a full and com plete hearing to the end? First: That the Senator from Wis consin can bo completely exonerated if the testimony justifies it. "Second: Ti?u he may be expelled if the testimony justifies' It. Third: That the Senate may pass a vote of censure or administer such oth'-r punishment as the testimony may | justify. "Tills, in our Judgment. Is a duty which we owe to the Senator from Wisconsin, to the United States Sen ate itself and to the public. More we ought not to do, and less we cannot be expected to do." Senator Pomerene recites portions of Senator La Follette's speech in St. Paul, September 20, 1U17. which caused the .Minnesota Commission of Public Safety to reuuest the Senate to pro ceed against him. In his speech Sena tor La Follette discussed the sinkinir of the Lvsltanla and the causes of the war. "We do not say in the present state of tho record," continues the report, "that Senator La Kollette should be. expelled from the Senate or that he should be convicted of a criminal of fense under the espionage act; but we di> say that, applying the principles of criminal law which are known to every lawyer, a grand jury inquiring into the case with ifo other evidence before It than the speech itself and j the facts as in this report cited would j have been justified in returning an ln dictment against him for violation of,i the espionage law. And we further j say that with this evidence, and none other, before a petit jury.
