Blalr, noted rail have been in Omahs for the last the Nerthwestern road by them N 3 bronehos atteched to & bugsy individuals gave an exhibitin Hon with & lawsuit growing out | facts in connection with the situation in Mexico. These charges have been circumstantially made by responsible persons, and the only official at- | tention pald to them was through a recent out- | burst from Private Secretary Tumuity, who flew i defend Carranza from accusations brought against him from sources certainly entitled to » Learing. More serious charges are now being made, so far suppression of the true condi- tions in Mexico is involved. A newspaper correspondent, who represents two of the really conservative great papers of the country, the Chicago Tribune and the New York Sun, gets word home to his papers that it is almost impossible to send out the truth from Mexico. This is because of strict censorship on the cable at Vera Cruz and other points, and be- cause the only way to get mail out of the City of Mexico is to send it unsealed in the United States pouch, which goes direct to Washington, there to be censored. Such charges as these, defi- nitely made by responsible persons, support the allegation that “watchful waiting’' bas not been altogether without its other side. That, while our government may not have “butted”in,” as the president puts it, on Mexican affairs, it has exerted some Influence, and still is, in behalf ot Carranza, At any rate, so long as the United States ia at peace with the de facto government of Mexico, why should communications between the citizens of the two countries by subjected to censorship? What is there to conceal from the people? Peace on the Peace Ship. “Many men of many minds” runs the old nursery ditty to the end that “many men do dis- agree.” And this is receiving a beautiful illus- tration just now in the experience reported from Mr, Ford's peace ship, Each of the delegates aboard ship is bent on a great humanitarian mission, and /s thoroughly committeed to the ideals of “peace on earth and good will toward men.” Unfortunately, each individual also has his own views as to how this desirable end Is to be attained, and neither feels called upon to en- tirely submerge his individuality for the purpose of bringing about unanimity, As a result, the Ford party Is breaking up into groups, and when the shores of warring Europe are reached, the rulers of the nations will be perhaps confused by the multiplicity of plans suggested for ‘“‘getting the boys out of the trenches by Christmas.” One can almost imagine the chancelleries of Europe suggesting to Mr. Ford and his associates that they reach some agreement between themselves before they undertake to adjust the muddled af- fairs of a perverse world, The Irish Saved the Day. For the first time since the war began British military authorities make adequate acknowl- edgment of the deathless valor qf the Irish reg- imentd on.the far-flung battlefront. Whatever foundation existed for complaints on this score are disposed of by the details of the heroic battle to the death of the Royal Inniskilliners against the Bulgars on the ridge of Kevis Crest. Rear guard actions usually are flerce, deadly combats, especially for the defenders of the, re- treating army. The Inniskillins breasted the oncoming victorious foe, overmatched, ten to ‘one, and held the Bulgars at bay for hours and until the rétreating army reached the appointed ling of defense, Almost to a man they paid the price with their lives, but they “saved the day.” The action and the sacrifice is character- istically Irish. It is the same spirit of valor and saerifice exhibited at Yellow Ford 500 years ago, at Clontarf and Limerick, in the Peninsular campaign under Wellington, at Cremona and Fontenoy. Bvery war for liberty, every attack on tyranny, at home and abroad, is marked with the fighting Irish spirit shown in the Balkans. It runs through the history of the revolution and the civil war, and reached the maximum of slaughter in the fruitless successive charges of Meagher's Irish brigade on Marye's Heigh “Cursed be the laws which deprived me of such soldiers,” exclaimed the second George of Eogland when the Irish brigade at’ Fontenoy turned the tide of victory to France, It has taken England two and a half centuries to learn the lesson und make partial amends to Ireland and her sons. — Great Britain's Latest Move. John Bull has alwaye been known for thrift and is now beginning to exhibit prudence aud for bt, as well. In witness of this we present the fact that Reginald McKenna is now busily engaged in exchanging British war issues for American stocks and bands at the markKet price. As was pointed out by The Bee some time ago the British holders of American securities wers making & very handsome profit by this exchange, although the total amount had not reached a very high figure. The tendency of the private owner of American securities to bang onto them it natural, and that it should be shared in by the British government s not at all astonishing. Mr. McKenna's assurance that he has no inten- tion of flooding the American market by throw- ing on it & large volume of securities to realize cash was unnecessary. The stable character o! American stocks and bonds is such as to make them the most desirable investment known to the world today, and the British government is merely showing good sense in exchanging its own for the Yankee securities — Acoounts of powder house explosions employ the word ‘obliterated” in describing what hap- pened to the bullding.

Then | stopped to think. The passage 1 had been reading ran as | follows “The door opened slowly.' There stood King Alex- ander and Queen Draga, both of them hastily and in sufficiently dressed, as they had sprung from their bed. They found themselves facing a dense group of officers. It was a historfe but terrible tableau! King | Alexander stepped forward in front of the queen, as if to shelter her, looked straight at the tratlors and sald: ‘What is it you want?—and what of your oath of fidelity to me?” There was a second or two of deadly silence. They looked at each other as if mesmerized. Then Lieutenant , who before en- tering the army was a teacher in a village schoo!, cried out: ‘What are you standing gazing at? Hero Is our oath of fidelity to him! Saying this Le fired on the king, who sank into the arms of Draga In & moment several revolvers were fired on the fall- ing king and on the queen. They both then dropped on the floor. The enraged conspirators continued for & few seconds firing their revolvers at the royal cou ple, bleeding and groaning on the floor.. Then then drew thelr swords, and began to dash’them in all directions. The poor woman, Queen Draga, was especially the object of their revolting crueity. * * * Fortunately the poor woman was killed instantly by the first volley almed at her. King Alexander, al- though plerced by several bullets, was not dead. He &roaned in agony, in & pool of blood. It is not certain that he was conscious. Lieutenant Colonel Mishich suggested that the bodies of the king and queen should be thrown out of the window, into the flower garden, that the. soldiers surrounding the palace should see that they were dead. He opened the win- dow. Bending over it he shouted: ‘Long live King Peter Karageorgevitch, king of Servia!' The officers in front of their soldiers echoed his cry by shouting: ‘Long live King Peter!" (‘Ziveo Kralj Peter!’)" When the news of the Belgrade murders flashed across the world, King Peter was living the plain and peaceful life of a pretender on the banks of Lais Geneva. The romance of ybuth had departed from him, for he was 53, and there was nothing—unless he himself knew of it—that threatened to disturb the even current of his existence. He was known to everybody in Geneva as plain Prince Peter Kara- georgevitch. His trim, slender, medium-sized figure, wnd his flerce military mustaches and flery eyes, wero as familiar to the children in the streets as they wera to the frequenters of the most exclusive Genevan clubs and salons. Although his house in the Rua Bellot was elegantly furnished, the prince lived in slin- ple style. He was not a rich man, and maintained more, probably, because he could not afford it than hecause of suspicious which the exist- ence of a priricely retinue might arouse. A woman servant named Mathilde and a valet named Albert attended to his daily wants, and a governess, one Mile, Lagler, used frequently to come in, either to answer the old man's letters or to give instruction to the children when they were in Geneva. He was a skiliful chess player, and when the children were home he used to play with them every evening. Fo. Serblans passing through Gemeva he xept an open house, and though ordinarily a silent man, he could always be roused to tell stories of his milltary ex- ploits. He was a great lover of black coffee, and smoked bushels of cigarettes. He was fond of shoot- ing, for he had taken prizes at the targets and had been a member of the swagger shooting club in Parfa He was algo fond of riding, byt even at that time his rheumatism was troubling him, and he could not ride with his old-time enjoyment. So far as his mental attainments were coneerned, he hag nothing out ot the common beyond a fine knowledge of languages and history. His favorite authors were Michele: Thiers and Henrl Martin. He had made special studies of the lives of Catherine the Great and Bismarck, and knew considerable about the Napoleonic peffod. He Had trapslater into Serbis John Stuart Mill's essay “On Liberty,” and for his services In introducing the great Hnglsh economist's work the prince had en- Joyéd a generous meed of praise from hls countrymen, It has neyer been proved that Prince Peter was directly connected with the murders of Alexander an- Draga. The world suspected it, however, and half the world #till remains convinced of his guilt. It way significant that the day on which the murder took place—Jupe 11, 1%8—was the thirty-fifth anniversary of the assassination of King Alexander's grand-uncle, Mighael, by Alexander Karageorgevitch, and doubly Bgnificant that Prince Peter seemed ready for nn immediate departure from Gepeva on the day after the murder, or as soon as news arrived that tne regicides were willlng to make him king. Prince Peter, knowing that these suspicions of his conneotis With the conspiracy were widehpread, took immediate occasion to deny his responaibility. Whosover the guilt, the pringe was formally chosen king on June 15, and on the 22d he took ths train for Belgrade. It had been remarked for montis in Geneva that he had looked careworn, and his ap- Ppearance at the station on the day of his departure, surrounded by a crowd in which the faces of some im. portant officials were absent, did not strengthen the keneral feeling that the journey was being made with- out misgivings. He should have been happy, for he was retirning to his beloved Serbia, after an exile ot forty-five years, but he was oppressed by the knowl- edge, not only that he was under a cloud-of suspicion, but that he was going home to a country in the depths of distress, rent by pelitical strife and hate. His own life, he knew, was not too safe, and he probably remembered that, of all the kings whora Serbla had had, one only had been permitted to die peacefully in bed. If there was any comfort at all in his thoughts, it must have come to him from the fact that affairs at Belgrade could not be worse than thoy were aud he had an opportunity, so long as he re- | mained a strictly constitutional monarc that he | might bring back to his kingdom peace and prosperity and a better place in the world's regard. Belgrade ¢ Peter a splendid welcome, but the | People were a little disappolnted in his personal ap- pearance. He did not look like a king, for he was small and thin, and even his fierce mustaches did not save him from ‘e certain amount of contempt. He was gray and wore princenez and he bore his fifty- seven years rather heavily. The coronation was a brilliant function, but there were few diplomatisis present, and the new king knew all too quickly that the official world and the outside nations, with one or | two exceptions, had givem him the boycott. It was a long time before he could be brought (o repudiate the regicides who had called him to the throne, and even then the repudiation only a half-hearted one, | forced upon him by the absolute determination of one of the great pawers not te recognize his kingship unth the repudiation-had been made, That was twelve years Before he left Geneva the prince gave to the Serblan people the assurance that he would faithfully support amy constitution which the Serblans gave themselves. Since that as- surance was given he has conducted himself as a strietly conatitutional monarch, and, although he has | naturally been under the domination of the military l | \ party, and has borne himself with credit during the | Wwars in which his country has been cngaged, he has been little more than a figure-head. Several times— the last in May, 1913—his abdication has been reported and in June of last year the crown prince was ap- Polnted regent. It was believed at the time that the King's difficulties with the army had worn him out although in the royal proclamation iliness and fnabil 1ty to perform his duties Were Kiven as the reasons for confiding the government to his heir Hobbed of Mis Cholce.

CREIGHTON, Neb, Dec. 14,~To the Editor of The Bee: The season is at hand when the congress of the United States is again in session. For more than a century that body has created laws that have governed one of the thus far, most peaceful and enlightened nations of the earth. Figuratively speaking the cyes of the world are turned this way because their action will shape the future destiny of men and res that will propagate peace or precipitate a spirit that will undermine our present literary and religious institutions, overthrowing the highest ideals of the fathers and founders of a constitution intended for the life and liberty of those following in the wake of civilization's morn: * Perhaps the greatest question is that of preparedness; and the question arises, “preparedness for what?” There is but one answer. A peace propaganda that will silence the guns of powers, princes and potentates of the world. To suc- cessfully prosecute the work of promul- ting peace, preparedness is needed at an estimated cost of at least. §150,000,000. Take it for granted this sum is raised, the next move will be to bulld navies and guns a little bigger than the other fel- low. With the spirit that prevails now, what will be the result? The productive soil of the husbandman will run red with human blood, with bone and sinew, enriching the mother earth. Our high seas colored with gore for the ke of protecting honor, home and native land. The feet and handas of coming m'llions must be taxed to protect those who rule the earth and commercial inter- ests, Will we stand for it? Let the “jingo" build his eross of gold. Let*the would- be statesman who claims to be standing at Armageddon battling for the Lord, battle away. Let the evangellst who deal In fires of eternal torment for mer- cenary motives brighten corners for the hottentot and hot headed heads of war- ring nations of the other lands. Let the military spirit of earth be given a death blow without the shedding of human blood. Let honest toil with reasonable reward become one of the fundamental principles of our industrial system. Let us return to “mush and milk” and first principles and there is no doubt, but the world will grow better if not wiser. T. J. HILDEBRAND. Wilson and the Message. PLAINVIEW, Neb, Dec. 14.~To the Editor of The Bee: President Wilson's message to congress is a surprise to a great many people of the union, the only one of its kind In the history of the United States. No president before Wilson urged ‘‘preparedness,’ which means militarism in time of pea: No president ever attacked an entire nation of “hyphenaged Americans,” as he terms them, for some improper acts done maybe by some sples or hirelings. The “hyphenated Americans’’ condemns un- lawful acts of any kind as well as Mr. Wilson, but feel insulted by utterances of the Wilson kind. Wé fear Mr. Wilson is digging the grave for the democratig party, A man who cannot control his Personal feelings is unable to lead a political party suc- ce Ity and is undesirable as the head of a big nation composed of different nationalities. His measage is liable to prepare a seed-bed for disharmony among the different nationalities in this country, which a wise president should try to avold instead of furthering it. The people of this union are peaceable and it is safe to say that Wilson's “pre- paredness’” bill would be voted down it put before them. Whom does Mr. Wilson suspect as our enemy? We know we can handle England be- cause we did It before. Japan is feared by some, but could be handled with our present fleet if a few submarines would be added. It seems as if Mr. Wilson's consclence are not clear toward Germany, but the Germans will bother nobody if left alone. All they ask is their place under the sun:: that's what they are fighting for mow. We may cool d?wn and rest easy. AN OLD-TIME DEMOCRAT. Seals and Sanitation. OMAHA, Dec. 14.—Tp the Editor of The | Bee: The sale of Red Cross Christmas, to obtain funds in the campaign against tuberculosis, is commendable in- | deed, No doubt a considerable benefit has resulted from money obtained in this manner. However, the spread of tuber- culosis could also be impeded by another way, a preventative measure rather than @ cure. I refer to the unsanitary habit of expectoration in street cars and on sidewalks, which habit seems bound to nothwithstanding c¢ity ordin- continue, | ances to the coptrary. ¥ _ We see in the street cars printed notices, threatening & $1 to §10 fine for spitting In ears, yet 1 doubt if one single fine has ever been imposed, though of- fences were legion.
