The Peace Protocol. The first Mexican peace protocol aigned at Niagara Falls accomplishes one defi nite restilt. in the removal from the situ ation of the demand of the United States for satisfaction for certain indignities suffered by It at the hands of the present government at Mexico City. This gov ernment agrees that it will not In any form whatsoever claim a war indemnity or "other international satisfaction." Further than this the protocol is ef fective for the establishment of Mexican peace only so far as it is followed by a successful agreement between the con stitutionalists and the Huertistas. It provides for the organization of a pro visional government in Mexico "by agree ment of the delegates representing the Parties between which th? internal strug gle in Mexico is taking place." The Unit ed States agrees, together with the other mediating powers, to recognize this pro visional government immediately. It is declared that "the provisional govern ment will proclaim an absolute amnesty to all foreigners for any and all political offenses committed during the civil war in Mexico.'* and that it will negotiate for commissions to settle all claims of foreigners on account mt dam ages suffered during the civil war period. In short, save to the extent that by Its agreement to this protocol the United States waives all claims for satisfaction from the Huerta government, all this protocol means is that if the now con tending parties In Mexico can get to gether and agree upon a provisional gov ernment it will be recognized by the T'nited States. Argentina. Brazil and Chile. Tn advance of any formal agree ment by the constitutionalists to treat with the federals for the pacific establish ment of a provisional government no pledge can be given by the mediators or the delegates assembled at Niagara Falls binding a provisional government that may be established to grant amnesty or to create claims commissions. Tndeed. so far as the provisional government in Mexico is concerned the protocol may be regarded rather as a statement of hope than as a guarantee Indeed. just at this moment there is leas reason to expect the constitutional ists to adopt a negotiatory attitude than at any stage of the revolution. Simul taneously with the announcement of the protocol comes word that Villa has cap tured Zacatecas. with heavy losses on both sides, and that the constitutionalists are now moving southward against San T.uis Potosi on their way to Mexico City. It is hardly to be expected that this tri umphant advance against the stronghold of the Huerta government will be checked for the sake of organizing a provisional government on a compromise basis when the definite capture of the entire ma chinery of Mexican administration is now probably only a matter of a few weeks. If the Carranzistas were members of the mediation proceedings, in good faith, Uiis protocol would have a far deeper sig nificance than can now be attached to It. But from the outset they have refused to Join the peace movement on the basis of an armistice. It may be that the medi ators have private assurances of a dis position on the part of the victorious revolutionists to treat with the steadily retreating federals, but nothing has been disclosed to warrant any confident as sumption on that score. On the contrary, * uile representatives of the Carranzistas have appeared at Niagara Falls they have not established themselves on the basis of representation. Having completely withdrawn its de mands for satisfaction for affronts re ceived at the hands of the Mexican gov ernment?that is to say, the government at Mexico City?the United States will doubtless continue to pursue the policy of "watchful waiting" in the hope that the now warring factions in Mexico may get together on some basis of pacific ad justment. if they do not work out their destiny by blood. Mr Frank Vanderlip wants every page of the Congressional Record read. Only a man who has been accustomed to pe ruse page after page of statistics could find the Record a work of such absorbing interest. The suggestion, however, is on? that ought to earn Mr. Vanderlip the gratitude of every member of Congress w ho asks for leave to print. The remarks of the weather man, though not distinguished by poetic grace, have represented the most satisfactory tributes paid to June in a long time. The selection of a partially numerical title, enables Sir Thomas LJpton to go on building Shamrocks indefinitely. The Philippines. It is announced that Secretary Garrison has submitted to the President his views respecting the Philippines. Their nature is not given, but they will likely influ ence the President's recommendation to Congress on the subject. The Secretary is quoted as saying '1 have not struck out in the dark, nor taken a leap with out knowfng where I am to land." Which means that he has reason to expect the President's indorsement. This is a paragraph from the an nouncement: "In formulating them Mr. Garrison has not built up his recommendations on theories, but. rather, has felt his way along step by step, building on solid ground the framework of a government lo last enduringiy. In attempting to solve (he problem of the Philipines Mr. Garri eon has been particularly fortunate. He Aid not come Into the office of Secretary War with preconceived notions of giv <P* or not giving the Filipino self-gov ernment. Consequently he has not been committed to any policy. Whatever ac tion or recommendation he has made to the President has been the result of deep research and assiduous study." The embarrassment of the administra tion in this matter is that public senti ment in this country and in the Phil ippines associates it with a promise and a purpose to give to the Filipinos inde pendent government at an early date. And >et at three presidential eiectionb the people of the United States decided against the proposition. In 1900 the proposition was new, and Mr. Bryan, the democratic candidate that year, much in denunciation of what he called "imperialism." In 1904, when Judge Par ker was the candidate, not so much, but something, was said of like tenor. In 1SI0S, when Mr. Bryan again ran, he again declared for scuttle. But the vot ers would not have it. Two years ago at Baltimore a plan relating to the Philippines was incor porated into the platform, and construed as meaning scuttle. Hence, when Mr. Wilson was elected, the so-called anti imperialists in this country and the agi tators for independent government among the Filipinos began to plan for ear y in dependent government for the is an is. Their words and actions indicated the thought that the hour was soonto Istrike. They were too sanguine by half The hour has not struck, and is not like > o strike soon. Here is the Secretary of War. whose department has a good deal to do with the Philippines, giving the public to understand that he has. ap proached the subject with an open, mind. and not as one committed to a 11 n? Action prescribed by a party Platform and Its interpretation. Independent government for the ippines Is one thing. Just when the peo ple of the islands will be able to con duct such a government is thing. On this latter point the best in formed opinion in this country o. men civilians and soldiers, who have studied the question at close range is that mai y years must pass before it will be safe and comport with the national duty for Uncle Sam to haul down his flag and sail away home. A Strictly Local 0?ce An expression of the local feeling re garding the office of TtcorA*r <>f <Jeed?. which rightfully belongs to the and is nevertheless regarded as political spoils, to be given to P*rt'*a workers in the states. Is to he the news columns of today . issue In -the form of statements by representative clti zens. There can be no disputing o arguments advanced respecting this par tlcular office. If there is one whuh is I everv respect local It Is the recorders^ Everv detail of the business pertains to immediate local interests The Parties which arc recorded are those of the peo pi, of Washington. The corporations whose papers are filed are comprise*I of Washlngtoniane. The money the office is supported comcs from pockets of District people The ever^ dav relations between the office and t e public intimately affect the citizens of the capital Just why, nearly thirty years ago. Pres ident Cleveland picked this particular local office to be used as a political plum is not readily understood. But after he had made one futile nomination of an outsider he tried another and succeeded bv dint of partisan appeals to hiB sena torial supporters to secure confirmation for his nominee after a bitter fight waged bv the friends of the District. After that President after President has considered the office to be put definitely In the spoils class, irrespective of Its excep tionally local character, and so the wrong has been continued. There is on? way to check thin long continued injustice, and that is to enact legislation placing the office under the District Commissioners, with a definite local residence qualification, or leaving It as a presidential appointment with such a qualification distinctly imposed. Whether the recorder is named by the President or by the Commissioners, he should be a Washingtonian, a genuine, undoubted Washingtonian, and not one by mere assumption of the title. Wi 1 not Congress rscognlze the justice of this pica of the District people that one of their own number be surely designated to record their realty deeds and their in corporation papers? National Photographic Headquarters Another national organization has de cided to open its headquarters in WmJ1 ington and to establish its home here, At the latest meeting of the National Asso ciation of Photographers, at Atlanta, a Washingtonian was chosen president, and sentiment was expressed for the erection of a building and the maintenance here of a permanent exhibit. All that applies to the fitness of Washington as the cen ter of industrial and scientific national activities fits tlie case of the photogra phers. It i? to be hoped that their pres ent project of making, this oty not merely their definite headquarters, but their annual meeting place, will be car ried Jnto effect. A permanent exhibition of the best work of American photogra phers. maintained here in Washington, would come under the eyes of American people more conspicuously than In any other location. This advantage Is to be taken into account as a reason for carry ing the enterprise into execution. By adding a million or so to the pro posed payment to Colombia. Uncle Sam might escape the embarrassment of making any apologies. Mediators are not lavish with inter views. Their responsibilities call more thinking than talking. There are moments when freight rate problems appear almost as perplexing as income tax calculations. Occasionally a mere golf game will try a man s patience as much as problems of international moment. The shout, "Down with the trusts." has undoubtedly lost Its old-time uberance. New York's Latest Conundrum. Has Mr Hearst kidnaped Gov Glynn? If so. what are his intentions, and what will be the result? The departure of the two men for Oh. cago traveling together came as a sur prise to everybody. Gov. Glynn had en gagements .ailing for his presence j>t home These were canceled, and he swung aboard a fast train for the Wndy I city His itinerary will take him even 1 farther, and what may take place on the Journey of interest to New Yorkers and having a bearing on New York pohtics Is a most engaging question. Until recently Gov. Glynn's nomination to succeed himself in office had seemed certain. He had been handling in ex ceedingly difficult problem well, and been praised for his success. Suddenly criticism appeared, " was charged by men close to the national administration-some of them represent ing the-administration in offlce-tliat the governor was showing too much friend ship for Tammany. His duty, it was declared, called for a break with Tam many. He must divorce himself entirely from Tammany, or gfve place to some democrat whose nomination for governor would express anti-Tammany sentiments. Gov. Glynn did not reply in words, but as he did nothing unfriendly toward Tam manv It was assumed that he had his own Views about the matter and would go his own way. Recently, when In this town on a mission unconnected with poli tics. he called on the President, and was vvell received Mr. Aiearsi -ut*-auu anti-administration. His enemies charge that he is now outside the democratic pale. Certain it is that he vigorously denounces not only the President's foreign policies, but some of his domestic policies, and repudiates the administration gen erally he helped -nlace in power. In his opinion Mr. Wilson is headed for a rebuke at the polls next November. Does this little journey west indicate that Mr. Hearst and Gov. Glynn have found, or are seeking, a means of co operation this vear? Are they to pull together? And. if so, in what way? Re fusing to break with Tammany. Gov. Glynn has lost the favor of the admin istration. Hobnobbing thus with Mr. Hearst, he will become more impossible from the administration's point of view. What, then, may his chances be of a nomination of any kind for Governor ! of New York this year? When the ad ministration demanded that he break ! with Tammany it had no idea that he would take up with Mr. Hearst. As be tween Tammany and Mr. Hearst the ad ministration, if forced to choose, would probably choose Tammany. Tn Chicago vesterday both Gov. Glynn and Mr. Hearst spoke pleasantly of Mr. Roosevelt. What docs it all mean? What is what? And who is who? And how astonishing and out of the ordinary even in New York may be the developments of the next few months? Central American politicians will have some busy sessions if they undertake to search their consciences for restitutions and apologies that are overdue. Confidence is expressed in the ability of the American people to be prosperous and happy during the temporary absence of a polo cup. Collectively Congress cannot favor a motion to adjourn, however much numer ous members would welcome the step in dividually. Tarry town, N. Y., is now hopeful of becoming as placid a community as Pat erson, N. J., has resolved to be. Even Huerta must admit that a man cannot go on tottering indefinitely with out becoming tired of it. A great deal of Mr. Bryan's most in teresting information is not available for Chautauqua purposes. SHOOTING STARS. BY PHILANDER JOHNSON Discouraged. "Don't you dance?" "No," replied Mr. Meekton. "Haven't you tried to learn?" "Yes. The lady 1 employed was a very competent instructor. But I can't see any sense in a man's paying a woman to find fault with him." A man who says Friday is his lucky day can't claim that he is not super stitious. He has synply thrown in the reverse clutch. Bad Imitations. The fashion pictures strangely say Bring to each festive spot The folks who think they look that way? But most of them Do Not! Cheerful Disposition. "Is this train on time?" asked the rest less passenger. "No," replied the conductor. "We're two hours late." "That's good. I'd rather be here than in the town I'm going to." In a Moment of Candor. "Do you believe everything you see in print?" "No." replied Senator Sorghum. "Not even your own speeches? ' "Well, speeches don't always represent what a man believes himself as much as wjiat he wants the other fellows to be lieve." Busy. "You're not putting up the game we expected of you," said the base bail fan, reproachfully. "Be reasonable!" replied the Eminent Player. "I've had to interview my law yer and sit for photographs, and keep my secretary supplied with material for literary work, not to mention looking out for stuff for my monologue next winter. A man can't do everything at once." Sometimes it takes a man of keen in tellectual and moral discernment to tell the difference between an opportunity and a temptation. An Impractical Idea.

There is a heaven for each mortal striv ing here below; For some the pace is rapi<J and some want it rather slow. I fear my own ideal to a scanty height ascends?

A Text for Certain Worshipers. i From the N>w York Sun. The most interesting and multiplex American personality and personage is 1 with us once again, and once more the capital of these United States is Oyster Bay. Even the weather flamed as the combustible colonel neared his native strand. . About this time look out for a hot spell of politics. The colonel has a competent sense of humor, but the spec tacle of the so-called progressive party totally unable to walk alone and clutch ing fondly but desperately at its pro prietor's coat tails is calculated to Irk as well as tickle him. Must the colonel run all the time, like his river? In an ad dress at the Cambridge Union, May L'ti, 1010. Col. Roosevelt made a confession which seems to have been forgotten by the more fanatical of his New York ador ers: "I never took a great interest in defeats." Pushing the Seasons.

An excellent way to forget the heat Is to remember that the Christmas maga zines are now going to press, and that in a couple of weeks our more progressive stores will be holding their mid-winter bargain sales, Gaillard Cut.
