ARCHIBALD. HATEVER happens to Mr. James F. J. Archibald, war corre . spondent and international messenger boy, he can hardly fail to note on his retyrn to his native land that neither his Government nor his fellow citizens share his views of what does or does not become « good American. “T have got into thie thing unwittingly and innocently,” protests Mr, Archibald. Maybe. But doesn’t it soem a little singular that a man of Mr. Archibald’s experience with the niceties, so to speak, of international jadjustment should have accepted from the representative of a Gov- ernment not his own a sealed communication to be delivered to that ‘Government without expressing the slightest curiosity as to the soontents? » Mr, Archibald may be as naivo as he says ho is, His case ought Jat any rate to have a thorough sifting in order to fix more accu- sfately tho amount of caution and common sense that may fairly be -Gemandged of any American citizen under similar circumstances. — a Sa /WHY DID ROFRANOHOLDCITY OFFICE? uv 'HILE the police search for Michael Rofrano, accused of zt instigating the murder of Giamari, the public begins to feel ‘ 4 certain wonderment. | Before the Giamari affair Rofrano played low politics of « sort : ‘that must have been notorious in certain circles, He was a treacher- ous political pandorer of the pistol-carrying type. Plenty of reputable “persons connected with the city government knew enough about him ta distrust him. “ Yet this man was made Deputy Street Cleaning Commi ‘ ioner and ‘clove advisers of the Mayor deemed him an ideal person to clean up _ graft in the Street Cleaning Department! Even when Commissioner Fetherston became disgusted with Rofrano’s sneaking activities on the east ide, the man’s friends in the City Hall still insisted that he was a reformer and would make good. Some of the Mayor’s counsellors are either political innocents or Ahey are easily fooled. * ——_ 4. —____. ’ MURDER BY ZEPPELIN.
