Tho honest man need never fear indictment

ROOT IS IN THE RUNNING
WHEN Ellhu Root was told by a com
pany of his admlrerB In New York that
he must respond to tho call If he Is sum
moned to lead his party next year, he did
not repeat his declaration on his retirement
from the Senato that he was too pld.
Reports from all parts ot tho country nro
to the effect that Root Is tho first man
In the thoughts of tho leaders. Other can
didates trail along after him.
Tho party, which has never lacked for
presidential timber, Is most fortunate to
have available a man admittedly so well
qualified In every way for the office. The
party Is fortunate, too. In that Us leaders
are looking among their greatest men for
the one to head the ticket.
CAN DEPEND ON PHILADELPHIA
THE significance of tho determination of
the Chamber of Commerce to co-operate
WHh the Navy Department in carrying
Its plans through Congress for the develop
ment of tho League Island navy yard lies
la Its demonstration of tho hospitality of
this city toward tho improvements.
Of course a bigger Government indus
trial plant here will help tho city, but it
will not help tho city any moro than the
city will help the plant.
We can offer facilities to the Government
that it can find nowhere else, and we are
already engaged In Improving the north
and south rapid transit lines in order to
tap a greater area for the supply of work
men to League Island. The city will co
operate with the Government In every pos
sible way In this great undertaking.
NINETY-NINE PER CENT. EFFICIENCY
TTENRT H. ROGERS, associate of John D.
JLi Rockefeller, once said that tho first
thing he learned from tho great oil king
was to get every possible dollar out of every
Investment he made. It is a good business
principle, this idea of 100 per cent, efficiency;
but it Is not the only principle. There is,
for example, the principle of 99 per cent.
A book without a margin would save
per, but It wouldn't be half so pleasant
a book to read. A life without a margin
may produce heavily, but It may not be
a life worth living. If a man Is out for the
100 per cent, he is all too likely to lose sight
of half the things which make life livable.
If "he Is counting the milestones along his
road. It is quite possible that he will miss
the scenery.
To a great many employers who put In
1M per cent, themselves, nothing less than
160 per cent, will do from their employes.
These are the employers who find, presently,
that some of their best workers have gone.
Bven in the dismal business of making a
living there Is room for the one per cent
which divides the automaton from tho man.
"NO PLACE FOR HATRED"
TO BE noble, hate must be large and
fierce. It cannot be personal or petty. So
thre Is much praise to be given Blr Philip
Wllbraham, who has refused to sanctify
hatred by giving it a place in a church. A
memorial tablet for a victim of the Lusl
taala was offered with the words, "Who was
murdered on the Lusltanla by the Germans."
Refuting tho tablet a place, the Chancellor
aid: "The wall of a church is not an ap
propriate place to perpetuate hatred."
Sorrow cannot be belittled, but hatred
can, and how petty the hatred now seems
after these words. How small and unreal
( songs of hato and the retaliations, the
quarrels about artists and tho controversies
concerning the language and literature
which an enemy may enjoy. In a war which
is so bitter and so devastating Is there really
room for spite? Is there room for hatred
when sorrow must be so large?

ambition to form a great coalition, including
the Balkan States, through which a way was
to be opened to Asia Minor and thence to
India. It forgot that there was the place in
the sun for which Germany has been strug
gling for a generation, and it allowed Ger
many to defeat It in the diplomatic game, and
then Its Inaction was so complete that Ger
many got big armies In the Balkan region pre
pared to fight their way to Constantinople
ahead of the Allied forces.
A decisive victory In the Near East may
save the Ministry by showing Its ability to
meet the crisis and recover from Its blunders.
It Is possible that tho British will decide that
it Is better to get along with Asqtilth than to

But tho crisis Is acute.
IS SMITH A DODGER?
milOMAS B. SMITH has had the Transit
Plcdgo for more than a week, but ho has
not allowed any Inkling of his attitude
toward It to escape him. Ho knows that the
Pledge Is not a promise to any newspaper or
to any small group of citizens, but that it is
a platform on which tho poople of the whole
city demand that their candidates for office
shall stand,
Mr. Smith has said that he Is "In favor of
transit." "Tho new high-speed lines can bo
Installed and practically completed during
the next four years," Is the form ot words
that ho used In his personal statement Issued
lost week.
What does ho mean by "high-speed lines?"
Is his Interost In transit confined to build
ing a new subway and elevated line while
the peoplo continue to pay threo cento for a
transfer slip?
Is Mr. Smith afraid to say that he favors
free transfers?
The subject has been before the public long
enough for any man to have formed an opin
ion on It. Director Taylor has been talking It
In season and out of season for many months.
Mr. Smith cannot be a dodger. Oh, nol
Ho was picked from the multitude of able
and Independent men In tho city as tho ablest
and most Independent available for election
to tho mayoralty, wasn't he?
The man fit to be Mayor ocrtalnly cannot
be afraid to state his views on the llvo Issues
of tho campaign.
Mr. Smith must bo waiting to frame his
answer to the Transit Questions so clearly
that no one can misunderstand his position.
Or Is this another case of "watchful wait
ing"? BETTER LATE THAN NOT AT ALL
ME
early days of his Administration It was
said of him that he was pig-headed and ob
stinate, nnd that when he had once decided
upon a courso of action It was impossible to
movo him.
The meh who thought they knew the kind
of man tho President Is failed to take lntp
account the educational value of a term In
tho White House. Tho freshman of 1913, who
announced his unalterable determination not
to recognlzo a do facto government in Mexico
which had come Into power by means which
he disapproved, Is now In 1915 arranging to
recognlzo a de facto government with a less
valid legal title than that on which ho turned
his back 32 months ago.
Carranza Is nothing moro than the leader
of a revolt against Huerta. There has not
been even tho form of an election to glvo him
a title to the Presidency. The Administra
tion Is recognizing htm not as a President,
but merely as tho man in power by force of
arms, who controls a larger part of the coun
try than any rival revolutionist.
Mr. Wilson, Instead of being "sot" In his
ways, has reversed himself under the sane
and well-lnforirid advice of his Secretary of
State, and has begun to do his best to atone
for his past blunders.
Now that Carranza Is to be held responsible
for conditions In Mexico, the Government In
Washington Is planning to sustain him by
putting an embargo on the shipment of arms
to the opposition leaders. We are to stand
behind the best man in sight and to help him
so far as possible; and so far as has been
announced, we have not laid down any pro
gram to which ho must conform, as wo did
when John Llnd was sent to Mexico to tell
the Mexicans how to run their affairs. Wo
have put It all up to Carranza. Now Jet us
hope that he can make good.

AMBASSADOR TO
THE "NEXT" MEXICO
Fletcher of Pennsylvania May Bo
tho Man Named to Represont This
Country at Neighboring Capi
tal His Career
By ELLI0 RANDALL.
ON FIR8T thought it might seem that
an appointment as Ambassador to Mex
ico, with conditions as they are, both In
that country Itself and In reference to that
country, would hardly provo attractive to
s1 s, any one who values
f .sliitfBW nls reputation for
Ing tho duties that
fall to him In tho
courso of building a
career, but there are
plenty of men In
America who look on
difficult Jobs as much
moro desirable than
the other kind, and
who would especially
welcomo an oppor
tunity surrounded
with perils and pit
falls for tho unwary
and the fearful. Such
FLETCHER
a man Is tho Penn
bo selected as United
to tho Government of
aylvanlan who may
States Ambassador
Carranza, already recognized by tho Pan
American conferees as "the do facto Gov
ernment of Mexico." Not that ho Is in
any wise an applicant for tho place, but his
Is ono of the three names, It Is said, which
are receiving chief consideration In this
connection at Washington.
Henry Prattler Fletcher, Republican, was
appointed Ambassador to Chill something
over a year ago. He Is ono of tho few
American diplomats of highest official rank
who have had any considerably extended ex
perience In the service Yet from tho stand
point of personal achievement, Fletcher's
remarkably successful diplomatic career has
been brief. Twelve years ago he mado his
start as second secretary of the legation at
Pekln. Much of his training he has given
himself. Officially and unofficially he has be
come acquainted with many peoples, nnd
has learned not only half a dozen languages,
but also numerous dialects.
Joined the "Rough Riders"
He was born forty-two years ago at
Greenca8tloln this State. Ho attended a
private Bchool In Chambersbiirg, which Is
now his home town, and there studlod law
for four years In tho office of D. Watson
Rowe. Admitted to the bar In 1894, he be
came a member of tho law firm of Rowe
& Fletcher. From 1891 to 1898 ho was of
ficial reporter of the Thirty-ninth Judicial
District of Pennsylvania.
Then came the Spanish War and many suc
cessive revelations of Fletcher as a man of
action, a hard worker and a "live wire." Ho
offered bis services to Colonol Roosevelt as
a Rough Rider In such fashion that he was
accepted at once. Ho fought In Cuba, and
when tho regiment was mustered out ho
promptly enlisted In the regular army, re
ceiving a commission as second lieutenant In
the 14th Infantry. For three years he was
In the Philippines. Ho was promoted to a
first lieutenancy and then became battalion
adjutant. In this office he acquired some real
knowledge of diplomacy. It was the man-toman
variety. Upon him fell the duty of
treating with rebellious natives and repre
senting to the little brown men the "Great
White Tather" In Washington. In Manila,
meltin pot of the East he diligently applied
himself to learning what he could of the Span
ish, tho Chinese and the Japanese tho peo
ples and their languages and dialects. In 1901
he became attached to the legation at Pekln.
Afterward he held a similar post In Cuba,
then for a while was first secretary of lega
tion at Lisbon, returning to China, where ho
became Charge d Affaires in 1907.
Won Ills Spurs In China
It was there that ho won his first recog
nition as one of the coming men of American
diplomacy. It will be recalled that President
Taft appointed Charles R. Crane Minister to
China, and that as Mr. Crane was about to
embark on his voyage thither ho gavo out an
Interview which further muddled nn already
muddled diplomatic situation, and which re
sulted in his immediate recall. Mr. Crano
Injudiciously declared that the United States
was preparing to protest against tho treaties
between China and Japan, a statement that
caused much agitation In both countries.
President Taft and Secretary Knox looked
about for the right man to send to the Far
East to handle the delicate situation. They
wanted not only a man of tact, but a man
well Informed as to economic conditions, and
especially as to railway problems. In the
meantime reports were coming Into tho State
Department from the scat of troublo. These
reports, because of tho gravity of the case,
were brought to the personal attention of tho
Secretary and the President, who were deeply
Impressed with their masterly descriptions
and analyses of conditions. They were all
signed "Fletcher." Inquiries were mado
about this man, and he was continued as our
chief diplomatic representative In China until
the spring of 1910, when ho went to Chill as
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipo
tentiary. The press of Chill Is very enthusiastic in
its praise of Mr. Fletcher and his work. He
is regarded by the Chilians almost as one
of themsolves, When they speak of their
trade and social relations with the United
States and their confidence In the perfect
good faith of this nation toward the other
countries of Pan.Amerlca they never omit
the name of Ambassador Fletcher. Not
least do they pay tribute to the charm of
his personality.

THE RETURN OF GENERAL SARRAIL
French Army Officer Summarily Dismissed From His Command
by Joffre Has Been Designated to Oppose Mackensen in the
Balkans The Pet of the Radical Party
By W. A,
GENERAL SARRAIL has been pitted by
the Allies against Marshal von Macken
sen In the fighting cockpit of Europe the
Balkans. Sorrall, whom Joffre dismissed
summarily from commana In the spring,
Is selected by agree
ment of Kitchener
and Mlllerand to
wrest supremacy
from the victor of
Przemsyl, Lemberg
and Brest Lltovsk In
the most Important
phase of tho dawn
ing second year of
tho great war.
Back of the ap
pointment lies the
romance of the, re
habilitation of a
military reputation.
Sarratl at Salonlca
is having, quite by
accident the chance
GENERAL SAItRAIL
of retrieving the sins of omission which cost
htm his commission in the early days of the
war. This week he left the Greek port which
King Constantino got as his share In tho par
tition of Macedonia for tho Servian-Bulgar
front.
There can be no doubt of Sarrall's Impor
tance when Downing Street ylelds'to the Qual
d'CJrsay and a Frenchman wins a command
coveted by general officers of both armies.
He was on the field ready to take control; he
had friends In power Interested in promoting
restoration ' of his military prestige. Tho
whirligig of time turned In his favor, though
he did not know It was having Its revenge
when ho was assigned to the chief command
of the French army of the Orient on August
7. At first he refused this command, when
the Anglo-French expedition to force tho
Dardanelles seemed likely to be more Saxon
than Gallic and chances were ho would have
to defer to British officers wh were gradu
ates merely of Colonial wars. Then he
thought better of the refusal and took the
place of Generals D'Amande and Gouraud,
both Invalided home, the former relieved May
17; the latter August 6, so badly wounded in
leading a charge on the Galllpoll Peninsula
as to necessitate amputation of the arm and
removal of splintered bones from tho right
thigh and left leg.
Popular Opinion Shifts
Then camo the disembarkation of French
troops at Salonlca. It was sufficient oppor
tunity for the Sarrall partisans to wield enor
mous power to put their favorite forward.
There bad been a revulsion of feeling since
the spring battle In which hundreds of
Frenchmen lost their lives from the fumes of
asphyxiating gases and 6000 were made cap
tive as the Germans carried trenches num
bering hundreds and covering important po
sitions, because of a Bin of omission on Gen
eral Sarrall's part in not having taken tho
precaution to provide masks.
A press campaign had prepared the way
for the shift in popular opinion. Clemen
ceau'a "L'Homme Enchalne" and Herve'a
"La Guerre Soclale'' were twice euppressed
on the Issue of Sarrall. Moro than that, the
'issue threatened a disruption of tho "sacred
union" of parties because the radicals, of
which party Sarrall Is the "pet," were wroth
at the degradation of a Republican general
as distinguished from a "reactionary" gen
eral, whose politics are conservative and
who is apt to be a churchman. Through
Sarrall the extremists .were striking at Mll
lerand, the Minister of War, whom they de
clared inefficient and whoso only achieve
ment, they said, had been to permit the
return of the banished religious orders to
France to furnish regimental chaplains with
officer rank, thus giving Rome, according1 to
their argument, a new grip on a country
release by the fractured Concordat from
priestcraft aomlaatlea.

professed atheism openly criticised the
methods of Andre and Sarrall In using great
sums of secret service money to ascertain
the religious views of officers, whether Prot
estant or Catholic.
Andro was dismissed and Sarrall shared
his unpopularity. In tho course of promo
tion, however, he rose to higher rank and
was given a good command at tho begin
ning of tho war on tho Verdun front In op
position to the German Crown Prince. His
record was good until tho disaster which
befell his troops when tho Germans Intro
duced asphyxiating gases. Then came his'
dismissal, which gratified a largo part of
tho military establishment still scarred with
the Andre wounds. Immediately Clemenceau
and Herve started the campaign of rehabili
tation, which camo to a climax with the
designation of Sarrall to command tho
Anglo-French-Serb campaign In tho Balkans.
WHITLOCK AS MAYOR
To the Editor of the Evening Ledger:
Sir Imagine, If you can, the degree of aston
ishment created when, a day or two since, our
eves wore greeted by some columns of spaco
devoted to one Brartd Whltlock, now Minister
to Belgium and formerly Mayor of tho un
fortunate city of Toledo, O.
Some years afeo. during his career as Mayor,
tho machinists of Toledo, Influenced by their
Irresponsible leaders to believe that the price
of living hod advanced while their wages re
mained at a standstill, where impudent enough
to not only demand a larger sharo of what they
produced but, falling to secure the desired re
Bponso to their preposterous claim, they fol
lowed tho advice of their anarchistlo advisers
and went on strike.
immediately the Manufacturers' Association
of Toledo, backed by tho national organization
of manufacturers, proceeded to exercise their
God-given right to Import from convenient
sources maintained for the purpose an army or
gunmen, thugs, so-called detectives, scabs and
strikebreakers to properly teach the strikers
their- duty to their superiors by the customary
method of bludgeoning them Into submission.
Then tho true character of this man Whltlock
asserted Itself. Forgetful of his duty to his
caste, and In violation of all precedent, he or
dered his police force to arrest these mission
cries of law and order as fast as they came
Into town. He also Issued a proclamation to
the manufacturers, who represented the wealth
and respectability of the community and were
the pillars of tho religious, social and commer
cial structure, not to mention their patronage
of the various philanthropies, arts, etc., advis
ing them that the striking machinists were citi
zens of Toledo and that their rights as such
Were to bo upheld; that they were as neccesary
to the prosperity and well being of Toledo as
the ownors of the factories; and that he, Whlt
lock, would continue to arrest their armed re
tainers and thugs and Jail them as fast as
they entered the city limits.
In view of this incident can you wonder that
I was shocked at the spectacle that met my
eyes on your editorial page on Thursday in the
shape of columns of spaco to this man Whlt
lock, a traitor to his cate7
