As was confidently expected. Vice President Marshall's speech accepting re nomination was a powerful argument for the election ot his opponent. England, which, it seems, Is much nearer the "emergency" point than Amer ica; has not as yet seen fit to enact a wage-increasing law for the benefit of railroad employes who threaten to strike. The announcement that Henry Ford is to distribute J860.006 In tho form of bonuses to his employes means that the minimum wage ot $5 a day is not paid very week. Only those get It who have earned a share in the bonus, distributed according to rather arbitrary rules made y a welfare department. t Infantile paralysis flourishes in the congested districts, where the housing is poor.

While n iotiou tor '-' at hasltataf, to amid a SAFjEGUARD THE FUTURE TT IS Impossible to arrive at any ade - quste conception of what Is going to happen to American foreign trade after tho war until one realliaaVhat has hap pened to It during the war. We have been congratulating ourselves on the splendid and unprecedented bal ance of trade in our favor. It reached the enormouV sum of 12.074,000,000 tn ths last fiscal year. "We havo been saying to our selves that Europe had to have the things which we produced and so came to our markets. This Is only part of the truth. Tra United States has boon a debtor nation. 'England and France, but espe cially England, Invested their surplus in American enterprises. They did not con fine their Investments to North America, hut loaned vast sums to South America as well. When the war broko out It be came neoessary for tho belligerent nations to mobilize their financial assets as well as their armies. It was Imperative that thoy should call their foreign loans. They have been doing this for the post twenty five months. The oxoct figures are not obtainable, but It has been estimated that between a billion and a half and two bil lion dollars' worth of American securities havo been unloaded on the American market. How have these been paid for? Not in cash. They have been paid for by the shipment of goods which Europe, fortu nately for us, needed in her great emer gency. If we could not havo paid for them In goods It would have bean neces sary to ship gold abroad and thereby drain our banks of their supply of yellow metal. The samo process has been going on in South America, where the exports of Argentina, for example, have increased almost as amazingly as our own, in re sponse to tho demand for tho payment of European creditors. The expansion of our foreign trade, dating from the mlddlo eighties of tho last century, lias been coincident with the Industrial decline of England and her decreasing ability to hold the foreign securities In which she had Invested. The boom of the past two years has dif fered in degreo and not in kind from that which has been going on for a genera- tlon- i The peril In the present situation Is two fold: Our industries havo acquired such a momentum that it cannot be stopped when the war ends. We are In grave danger of producing a surplus that will glut our markets and demoralize business. Second, when the men of Europe leave the battlefield and resume their places in Industry all the nations will exert them selves to the utmost to recover tho trade which they have lost by supplying their own markets and selling their surplus at any prlco thoy can get in tho markets of the world. There Is grave danger of a glut of homemade goods made worse by a flood of foreign-made articles. Further, because they have borrowed a billion and a half here since the war began, thero Is the added neoesslty of selling more goods hero to pay tho interest on these loans Instead of shipping gold to us. It will require tho broadest and wisest industrial and political statesmanship to prevent a graVe economlo disaster grow ing out of these conditions. Our first duty is to those of our own household. What Is noeded now Is not a law to make foreign competition with our producers easier, as the Underwood law has done, but a law which will protect our mar kets, and thereby protect our .workers from ruinous competition. If thero over wero a time in the history of the nation when an Intelligently framed protectivo tariff law was neoded that tlmo Is tho present. j$V N FREE WILL AND PREDESTINATION EVEUY publlo employe who has re celvod "Dave" Lane's request for a "voluntary" political contribution knows that fct he doeanot give of his own free will hi is predestined to walk tho plank? , oy Ike an mmv 1 tailed to assure, "onvaaMw ot taw that ho auly the Ivoague Island : tor buUdlua atttttal tfctus.

WHENEVER It's a Saturday it seems to be the thing for some' queer vil lage poet to break out and have his fling, but let's make this occasion an excep tion to the rule nnd give the Old Reporter opportunity to drool. Reverting to proso, then, it may be well to go back over some twenty-odd ycAro nnd recall that most of the human interest stuff in the old town was to be picked up after "good-night" had been flashed by the Associated Press to the various newspaper ofllces and tho bright young men wore on their way home or to the Pen nnd Pencil Club. It was be tween 2 nnd 3 o'clock In tho morning when our old chum Sam Stlnson was bound In ono or tho other of these two directions twenty-flvo years ngo that ne camo upon this pathetic pic ture In tho door way of a cheap lodging house on the edgo of tho Tenderloin. It's somowhat regret table that It's only tho few abroad at night who seo these things. The great publlo that goes to bed tired at 9 p. m. and rises, n o n o too re freshed, at 6:30 a. m., should have more of tho night-owl's knowledge while losing none of Its sleep. But we started to say that along about 11:45 o'clock of a very hot night not forty-eight hours ago a respectable, elderly man dipped a pen in the Ink and started to write on the register of Dooner's Hotel: "Doctor " That was as far as ho got. Dan, the night clerk, I wnose DacK naa been turned when the stranger appeared. Interposed and said: "If It's a room you want, doctor, I'm sorry; but wo haven't any." "Very well," said tho doctor. "May I sit here In, your doorway?" "Make yourself at home," nald Dan. Tho doctor settled himself In the doorway and, It may bo assumed, amused himself plck'ng out of the heavens the few stars his smattering of astronomy enabled him to locate. Out of the night came a wan dorer, loitering listlessly. With tho easy assurance of a familiar he leaned against the door Jamb and lowered himself to tho step. It Robert W. Chambers, that utterly commercial but flne-If-ho-wanted-to bo lit erary artist, wore writing this sketch ho'd say at this 'Juncture: "Each of these two men recognized In the other that subtle something which tells one creature that another Is of his caste." At any rate, the two fell naturally Into conversation. After somo desultory talk of the weather, tho doctor said: "Do you, by any chance, play golf?" Thero was an electric flash, which had nothing whatever to do with the heat lightning provalent earlier In the evening. It was a spark from soul to soul, and thereafter tho minutes flew upon wings of filmy gold. Reversing tho usual order, the man who had started to sign himself "Doctor" told, his ailments to the other and the latter became the diagnostician. Ho went fur ther. He analyzed tho play of the cracks at Merlon. He explained as no one else had ever explained to the doctor before why it was that Ohlok Evans's Iron shot had a hook to It and yet stops dead when It strikes tho turf. It's simple enough, the expert explained, because Chlok's iron always catches the ball above the oentor and yet that doesn't account for tlie back spin. Thero Is only ono answer: It's a stroke of genius, which is the an swer upon all things that aro out ot he ordinary. Rut the golf expert and the doctor knew him then for ono of the greatest In this country stood out upon Tenth street and, using his crook-handled walk ing stick for a club, demonstrated how the stroke was made. The clock In a neighboring tower struck A, A bellboy came out from the hotel offlco and said: "Doctor, 'we've fixed up a couoh for you In Room 10." The doctor was about to wave the boy away, but Just then a messenger came up from Jefferson Hospital and handed the golf expert a note. He toro It open and read: Dear Mr Tllllnghasr; Your wife Is her self again end wants to see you, The operation Is a complete success. E. I J, for Dr, E. D. M. "Thank Godt" exclaimed tho golf ex pert and hurried down Tenth street In the crescent dawn, And the doctor, waving him good by and godspeed, went In to his couch. wf 4' iff t rMh iaOt WWW W x , wli, i ' Jl? will L.

In his letter accepting the Democratic nomination for the presi dency arranged with an unusual decree of skill Doctor "Wilson caused to be printed In that letter fifteen or more sentences tn bold-faced typo In one of which he says: There Is no means of Judging ths future, except by assesalng the past. Constructive action must be weighed against destruotlve comment and action. The Democrats cither havo or havo not understood the varied Interests ot the country. The test Is contained In tho record. In his speech at Plattsburg, N. Y Sep tember 12, Hon. Charles V. Hughes said: It Is time for assessment, for appraisal and candid statement. No one, Jn this country can object to full and fair discussion. That Is the very spirit ot our Institutions. What we need Is fairness and the truth, and then let the electorate decide. That Is American. For the purpose of Judging the future, I submit the "destructive actions" of the Democratic party and these "constructive actions" of the past by the Republican party. Tho Republican party was organized In 1856. It presented evidence ot great strength, and In order to defeat It the Dem ooratto party nominated James Iluchanan, ot Pennsylvania, for President, believing that It would carry the States of Connecti cut. New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana and some other northern Btaton and John C. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, for vloe president, In order to solidify ths South ern States for th Democratlo party, and the sohemo succeeded. The Republican Party nominated Abra ham Lincoln for President In 1160 and its convention promulgated a platform of "constructive action" and principles such as no party had formulated since tho organi zation of the American Government, Be tween the time ot the election of Mr. Lin coln In November, 1IC0, and his Inaugura tion on March 4, 1861, eleven States for mally seoeded from the Union, without a word of protest, or a hand or a sword raised by the Administration ot President Buchanan to stay the "destructive aotlon" of those States. President Lincoln and the Republican party held that under tho Constitution and the laws no State could lawfully secede from the Union, and upon taking the oath of office as President, he began the "con structive action" necessary to restore those eleven seceded States to their proper place In the Union. But In order to save the Union from the "deitructlve aotlon" ot those seceded States to destroy the Union by war Prealdent Lin coln was forced to call more than 2,000,000 volunteers to the defense of the National Government, and In answer thereto the loyal sons of the North, the Bouth, the East and the West, breaking asunder all party ties, and casting aside ths pursuits and pleas ures of civil life, thronged the field, re solved that the Union should be preserved, tha Constitution maintained, and the su premacy of tha Government preserved, to do which 400,000 Union soldiers laid down their lives, 100.000 were made cripples for life and more than 1,000,900 devoted moth ers, widows, sisters and orphans were loft to mourn for the loved ones who never re turned, and the cost In money was more than S1S.000.000.000. And from the 11 Stat that seoeded from the Union jn 1110 there will ba elected In November next 126 presidential eleotors who will cast their votes for Woo&row Wil son for President without the expenditure of one dollar for election purposes by the Democratlo National Committee and from those 11 States there will not be one Re publican presidential elector chosen. At the election of 1914 there were 99 Democratlo members of Congress chosen, to only Ave Republicans In those States. Tho contribution from these eleven States will be about one million dollars for the use of the Democratic National Committee In Us effort to defeat tho Republican can didate for President, and of Republicans to Senate and House of Representatives, and of Republican Governors In the Northern States. These are some of the most Important committees of Congress, nnd the names of the chairmen thereof from these eleven States: Ways and Moans, Kltchln, North Caro Una: Judiciary, Webb, North. Carolina; Interstate and roreign Commerce, Ad amson, Georgia; Banking and Currenoy, Glass, Virginia; Foreign Affairs, Flood, Virginia; Insular Affairs, Jones, Virginia; Rules, Henry, Texas. These committees havo to deal with Gov ernmental attitude In questions of pollcjr their function being policy determining: Rivers and Harbors. Sparkman, Texas; Agriculture, Lever, South Carolina; Mili tary Affairs, Hay, Virginia; Naval Affairs, Padgett. Texas; Postofflce. Moon, Texas; Publlo Buildings, Clark, Florida; Jndlan Affairs, Stephens, Texas; Ra'lways and Canals, Dies, Texas Theso committees have not only to do with publlo policy, but the directing of appropriations from the National Treasury. Arid as thfse eleven States are now riding at th head of the political procession. It will be very Interesting to note whether the assessment desired by President W!l son will be recorded "as constructive action, or destructive comment and action." JOHN W. FRAZTER. Philadelphia, September IE. CASEMENT LINKED WITH EMMET To the Editor of the Evening Ledger: Sir As an Irishman, please allow me to say that I feel more than surprised to hear so much talk concerning that "article" by Alfred Noyes. No true uon of Ireland no decent American, In fact would pay the slightest attention to such stuff. The Irish people are well acquainted with harangues of the Noyes type. England has been trying to blaclien and vilify the Gaello race for the lQBt 800 years, and surely no one expects she Is going to give up her old game at this moment, . It doesn't matter a cent what Noyes or any other pro-Brltleher has to say about Sir Roger Casement We all know what he was; a patriot of the noblest type. Ills work for humanity's sake will not soon be forgotten, while his noble efforts for his own country have endeared him to all lovers of liberty. Irishmen the world over are proud of Casement; they place his name beilde the names of FlUgerald, Emmet. Tone and all tho other brave ones who gave their lives for their country. Without any feeling of sorrow or regret, we assert that there are still some left who are not afraid to follow' In the path where Sir Roger Case ment led, and. If needs be. to make the sacrlfloe which he so willingly and so chtv alrously made. "aod took his soul, God heard his cry, God gauged his reckoning, yea, and set Above the farthest reach of sky Casement's Immortal coronet. God ranged his crown of sacrifice Ills life, 'twas all he had to give With them whose blood has paid our price, And died that Ireland's soul shall live " Philadelphia, September ? MUit.

Ci King Constantino succeeded tn defeating tha Influence of Venlzelos only by frankly riding over the Greek constitution, refusing to restore Venlzelos to power after he had been returned by a large majority on the Dardanelles Issue In the spring of 1816 and through the failure of the King to hold together ministries without himjn the fall of that year. Th second check mate of Venlzelos by Constantino occurred when the Premier, after his recall to power In 1910, foroed tho mobilization of the Greek army. Invited the Allies to enter Greece and tried to bring the country to keep Its treaty with Serbia, when that country was Invaded In October, 191B, by Germany, Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria. Ills resignation was forced by the King. 1 though the Chamber of Deputies passed a vote of confidence in favor of tho Premie".
