PROUD OF HIM. Those who wished for the re-elec- tion of Woodrow Wilson. not for any political partiean reason, but merely because they wanted to see the man vindicated in the eyes of the world, had two sources of consolation last night when first reports were bad re- ports. One consolation was that the news was incomplete; the other was that Woodrow Wilson would prove another Cleveland. It is pointed out in another article on this page how in 1392 Cleveland was defeated on the night of tlLat election and elected on the morrow. | | | It must be remem- | bered that when previous to that in 1888, he was defeated, the four years following his defeat were so loaded | with reactionary tendencies and the overtura of all the Cleveland complishment: that the people in | 1892 put him back in the White | House. 1In the event that Woodrow Wilson does not prove the victor when this official count is made, it may well be supposed that the people of this nation four years from this time will call him back to complete his work.

Many optimists believe this war is to be the last great war; that the na- tions will become so fed up with slaughter and the terrible expense of war that disarmament to a great degree will follow, with a world court of arbitration which will be something more than a name. It is hoped the optimists are right about it, but it is interesting to note that a Russian military writer sees a less cheerful vision; he sees the po: bility of another war, which would overshadow the present conflict, even as this war looms larger than the Napoleonic wars, or others which have devastated Furope through the centuries, Another war, with alignments somewhat like the present, but with European nations now neutral drawn in, he finds within the range of possi- bility.
