it should be further said thnt is not without some show of reason. i. as int- i.iiuj'1 from a. liernian jxiint of view The einectation, it eosms was that the offer niaJp in Inst Ucrman note would t-so made the of further negotiation. The journalists In question lil not renlire that there could be no pro longation of negotiation in the absence of a promise on the ynrt of Crrmnny to abstain from killins our citizens in violation of the law of nations.

They cvi ilently lolieveii that if Germany agreed tu refrain from nttnrking a certain number selected vessels, nil the substantia, 1 requirements would be met. It from this point of view they nre dis- and for the moment nrer Ihey say. hopeless of a jieacenlile under-stntidiDo; being arrived nt. But they will lime time enough for more, reflection before tlie next note is penned. Tbey will master, as they have not yet done, the.

reaskons which render it impossible foe our Government to consent to any departure from the law affecting the rights of neutral merchantmen, and when they do so we may expect something further in the line of conciliation. To thia. however, it is proper to add that tbe mind of the people of the t'nited States i made up. so tlmt if for any reason tlie German submarine disregard tlie warning given by President AVilson there -will to a certainty be trouble between the two countries. In other words, the last American ehip or neutral ship carryinr American citizens lias been snink tha can be sunk in violation of interna tional law without involving an appeal to arms on our part.

It wonld he the reverse an act of friendship to Germany to allow her to cherish any illusions or lelu lions in this relation. Tbe truth may -be bitter, bat it ii mncb better than smooth words that may lead to consequences of the most deplorable kind Bven in New Xork. where tbe moat ardent aximimi of the Kaiser congregate, does not seem" to be deemed entirely wise just sow to insrnlt tbe true American with, any further of drflftit tb aavrinjiou of mea, weaea axatS ud EOt eUMrea oflbii blood, i i i I I I TO CHEER POOR St. Vincent de Paul Hold Meeting.

Mfronaeat faciora in DrcveuuaaT Jna venile delinquency The force of the I ligurea ihould ierbapa be modified by th. consideration that the parenta who seud their children In the pariah achoola ar the flower of our Catholic folk and tak their parental reatKUisibilities seriously in every rt-apeol, so the fact that an few Catholic children from tbe parochial bonis come to the ei.urt might be said to be an argument rather for good home training. i This only nrings ns nars. to me view already expressed thnt Ibe whole delinquency problem which the reports from the Children's Courts snd juvenile reformatories bring eo forcibly before us. can be solved only ill the family.

Xow the members of the Ht Vincent de Paul Society have already entry into many of the families whose children come to the court and perhaps we have not in all cases exhausted the Intiuencee at our command to ring about a reform in the homes."

us har nornilttpd her tO a. this numlr, but the arg-umcru us I vari'-od tb tin inpoctors oommiiuti i gross blunder when they permitted her to carry any 'h number. There Is no evidence to prore the I v.r stories io.li uie nsi nu sudden rushing of the pasKengers to one side. Naval architects advance the theory that the boat capsized because her water tanks were not filled According to-theso experts it is the custom of captains of csoursrou loats not to fill the tanks until after their vesesl reaches deep water. One expert asserts that proper stabilization is obtainable only when all the tanks are filled to the top.

At the time of tbe Sdorum disaster the newspapers were fnll of warnings and censure of 'he (ioyirnment steamboat inspection service, and for a time excursion boats were mibjectcd to rigid surveillance. The Kastland catastrophe shows that th service has fallen once more into a rut, and that proper care is not exercised to safeguard the lives of the traveling public. In the Slocum case the only person punished was tbe aged captain of the boat. Should tlie inquiry ordered by the President confirm the theories of the naval experts that she was not adequately ballasted the responsibility will fnll cm the steamboat inspection sexiice for permitting this gambling with tionsands of lires.

I tried to trace the call for several hours, but received no response."

The emergency message in Itaelf supplies a real need to the State. Not in recent years, however, has there been a crisis which demanded its use. It expedites business which legislative leaders cannot progress. If the leader had control there wonld be no need of tbe Governor's assistance. In recent years legislators have regarded the Governor I messag as a eanen and they usually respond with alacrity.
