He is the strongest man in his party, and, ir lie cannot be elected, no Demo crat can be elected: it' he is not nominated, the Democratic party will lose control of the government. This will bring into line even those who prefer another candidate When Vice- ('resident Marshall declared that ''lightning rods already up may as well be taken down and preserved for future use. Democratic lightning will not strike u rod in HUG." he spoke a widoly-recognized truth There are few to take issue with him that Wilson will be nominated in I ft I <5 without opposit ion \ Pitiful Trnged.t OX board the Spanish steamer Montserrat 200 French and Gorman reservists have sailed for home?to tight. On the ship they are boon companions, mingling freely, dis cussing war events, swapping yarns and to bacco in perfect coincraderie. These Ger mans and Frenchmen will, by the time they have reached the other side, like each other personally so warmly that there will be tears at parting. Human Drolher and Human Hrother of different tongues, but like hearts, will clasp hands and say sad things about the parting. Then they will go. each man to his own llag. and they will pet guns, and they will shoot each other down like dogs, all be cause nations are at war. It is not ho far a cry hack to our own war. and to the parting of families. There was a gray old mother who sent her two son* to tin* front?one North, one South. The boys kissed at taking leave; anil the mother blessed them both, and said: "Hoys, it is ter rible that you are not on the same side, but you must be true to your convictions, and if you meet in battle you must neither know your brother!?' The same family gave an of ficer each, to North and South, to lead oppos ing armies. Father fought son. affections were, thrown to the winds, men became mere animals with high motives. Somehow, to the average intellect; these things appeal ub pitiful in I he extreme. And civilization, in the face of "great military necessity," goes on disuniting, disrupting, tearing asunder those whose natural affec tions should make so monstrous a thing im possible. Well, it may be right it may be the way of arms?it may be justified by mili tary necessity; but all the same, it is pitiful, and civilization that permits it should hang her head in shame. \ Hush for Fresh Air Ci'KKKNT reports of real estate operators, and the better evidence of one's own eyes, indicate a rush for fresh air that Is leav ing the populous centres to those who must, whether they will or no. live in a state of congestion. Those who can. and who have in them the wholesome desire, are making for the suburbs, and in city development there is a great tendency to wide houses and open grounds where values will permit. It is plain enough to satisfy any one, th.it a city built low and wide is in the nature of things more, comfortable than a city built high and narrow. There is no more striking illustration than the town on Manhattan Is land. which, to accommodate its enormous population, is beginning to tilt with the weight of its skyscrappers and tenements. I'p there, where life is measured in dollars and cents, lobsters and silver buckets, pre tense ami gilt, there are also suburbs; and t^tosc who brave the subway scramble and cuminuters' inconveniences, are doing (lie best they may. to at least live in comfort, no matter how (hey may he compelled to work. Congestion tends '<? artificiality of exist ence. The home disappears in the environ ment of apartment life. There is no place to dig. no place for baby to play, no place to relax. That growing city, which counts con dition of living among ils responsibilities, and weighs its advantages by the happiness of its people, would do well to look forward to wideness and roominess, rather than plan anything which seeks to centralize at tho ex pen so ?>f comfort In this respecti Hichmond is favored with present roominess ami plenty of space for growth The I'liilippine Dill Washing!on Star lakes exception to * Commissioner Quezon s argument that tIk .lone: IMiilippino bill t hoiild lib passed ?because 111> Filipino people should be as . ured at thi> psychological moment that they may rest easj as t<> liieir future, since the t'ultcd States will not under any circum stanced betray its trust." "Is it necessary," asks the Star, "to as sure (he Filipino people that it 'will not under any circumstances betray its trust'? Does Sehor Quezon himself entertain any don lit on t hat point ?" This is a very clever way to create preju dice against Senor Quezon's argument, but that is all Why should Senor Quezon's fel low citizens be overly confident of our good intentions when we refuse lo reaffirm them? "Why should not 'hey become suspicious if iur Congress deliberately votes down a pro posal to make our promises a little more defl nit? ? If we intend to keep our word what is the objection to telling the Filipinos just what it !? that we promise? The Star intimates that only pride stands in the waj : that we, as an honorable nation, think tlie l'il\|)inos should be satisfied with our declaration that we will do the right thing l'liat may lie the position of those opposing the Jones bill, but it will not satisfy the Filipinos or \mcrieuus either.
