Aviianey of N THE OMAHA DAILY BEE United States’ Record of Peace. | The history of the United States ig a story of peace, broken at long intervals only by con- flict in behalt of right and justice, and with orderly quiet quickly restored. From the time white men first came to America, their efforts have been to establish concord of action and tranqillity of life. To escape from the turmoil and feuds of Europe and build in a new world a rational life whose fdeal would be liberty and equality for all mankind, and whose citizens should be secure in rights and privileges denied them in Europe was the ambition of the coura- geous, thoughtful men who brought the older civilization to this continent and made it over into the new. Since The formation of our gov- ernment its only warg have been defensive and to malntain the highest concept of human freedom, The genlus of our country and the spirit of our people are both opposed to conquest as inimical to liberty, Our relations with the world have been established and upheld by a algnified insistence upon right as supported by rcason. We have never tried to Impose our views on a neighbor or a contemporary except with the ganction of justice in its best applica- tion. For almost a century and a half of na- tional existence the United States has given the world the finest example it has ever had of a self-governed people. Underneath all the so- called national hysteria les a broad and deep buse of devotion to a concept of freedom that will make the extreme sacrifice for its preser- vation, The diplomat or ruler who does not recog nize this makes a serious blunder. The people of the United Btates are united on a record of peace, but will nmnnnln' its Institutionsg at any cost, Locally. Barring a !:-w wenk wpots, the republicans of Omaha and Douglas county managed to pull out a fairly good locul ticket to be presented for the approval of the voters at the polls in November, And it is only falr to let it be known that the dead welghts on the ticket got there not by deliberate selection of the rank and file of the party, but through the {ntricacies of the preposterously long ballot and the ob- structions of the election machinery that kept thousands of voteryg from putting in more than a few cross marks on the upper part of the ballot and disfranchised them for the rest as com- pletely as the blacks are disfranchised in the southern states, The wonder only is that in the face of the difficulties besetting him, the average voter succoeeded in doing even as well as he did, Another British Cabinet Cris The determined effort to unhorse Asquith as hoad of the British eabinet, persistent almost since the beginning of the war, promises to pucceed this time. An especial fight has been and is being made against the premier and Minister of Foreign Affairs Grey by the dissatis- fied elements of all British political parties for months, and the government has been carried on in the face of criticlsm almost incredibly hostile from those who assume themselves to be devoted patriots, Against the premier at this moment is urged the condition of recruit- fug, a particular demand being made that the military authorities give some notion of a limit as to the number of men to be requisitioned for dofense of the empire. Opinfon In Great Britain in sharply divided dn this point, the Tory ele- ment of the country still contending for com- pulsory service, against all British tradition. Extreme radicals, who have been against the government in its conduct of the war from the beginning, and those who are opposed to the war, have seized the opportunity, and are making the most of it. Asquith has shown 1t~ tle inclination at any time to temporize with these or to elaborately explain the purposes of the government, except to appeal to the patriotic impulse of the people to trust in and rely upon the judgment and ability of the men who are leading the country in the present crisis, Lloyd-George and Reginald McKenna have given the premier able support in this work, but have not been successful in quleting the opposition occasioned by threatened conscrip- tion. Andrew Bonar Law is suggested as a suc- cessor to Asquith, with Lloyd-George as an slternative, on a policy of continuing the vol unteer system, at least until the situation of the empire becomes more desperate. 8ir Pdwin Grey's numerous mistakes in dealing with neutrals may serve to force him out of the cabinet, whether Asquith goes or stays Keep After a New Depot.
