Two elections to flit vacancies In par liamentary divisions, one In Scotland and one in England, resulted in a train for unionists of the seat cacatcd by Sir Itufus Isaacs, who was elevated to the lord chief Justiceship. The expected happened In both polls. One of the rea sons urged against the promotion ot Sir Rufua was the ' certainty of losing tho acatcd seat for the Reading division, the party mnjorltr at the general election being . only W. The significant fea ture ot the two elections Is tho sharp decrqoso in the ministerial party voto and a corresponding Increase In the unionist strength. As a straw showing- the current of political sentiment in Great Britain the balloting In a mighty stimulus for the outs, who are eager for the ministry to precipitate a general election before the land reform program of the ministry grips the coun try and swamps present Issues. The ministerial majority in the House of Commons remains around 100, a comfort able number to carry forward to tho statute books home rule, Welsh cTiurch disestablishment, and abolition ot plural vottng. Chancellor TJoyd Gcorgo's pre liminary speeches on the proposed land reforms have provoked sharp attacks and deluge of technical criticism, chiefly from the landlords, some of them pro fessing eagerness to unload their estates on the government ait nominal prices. That tho Issue ' la bound to overshadow all other lssubs Is forecasted by ,the ex- iraorainary a cm ana ror copies m tno re port of the government commission on the present condition ot the land question. Political Bedlams. Americans who Imagine they are the homplon noisemakers In a political cam paign havo another guess coming. The recent local campaign In Now York City, with Ha bands and banners, red fire and recriminations, and Its whirlwind of speechmaklng, by many Is considered the limit of political bediam. Compared with the recent campaign In the Reading di vision of England, the New York contest appears as mild as a jollification at a deaf mute Institute. An American corre spondent who visited Reading, a city of 72,000 peoplt, during the last days of tho battle, counted twenty-two orators spouting front carMalls at the same time. The whole city teemed with politics, with ,000 paid speakers turned loose on the populace, to say nothing of leather- lunged cohorts ot unpaid enthusiasts. One hundred open air meetings were running in full blast simultaneously within a radius ot one mile, and In ad dition mass meetings were being held In halls. Although serious Issues were In volved, personalities were avoided, and considerable humor ot the heckling sort developed. In one Instance while a min ister was drawing a vocal picture of tho present "happy and prosperous: con dition ot the working people" a party of real vocalists In the crowd started slnglnr the hymn, "Tell Me the Bame Old, nirt atorv." At another meeting a de termined-looking suffragette finished scolding a patient crbwd and asked, "Does any gentleman here want to ack me a question." -J.es," a iarmcr caucu out. "are you married?"

Servla borrowed $60,000,000 from France at the start and now Wants 376, 000,060 additional.

Tho financial and politi cal situation In Bulgaria Is In such an acute stage that King Ferdinand Is pro- lonirinir his visit to Emperor Francis Jo seph, leaving the Bulgara to stew In their own juice.

From the moment the republican leaders listened to the siren son of Yuan 6hl Kal and permitted the smooth servitor of the Manehu dynasty to seize the reins of power, the prospects of a constitutional government began to dwindle. The personality ot Yusn domi nated the gpvemment from tho start. As provisional president his plans were pressed forward persistently. Opposition delayed their execution for a time, or, rather, their execution awaited the exe cution of the opposition. The death ot four republican leaders by assassination Is charged against Yuan and his mmions, A rebellion in the south furthered his plan of becoming the dictator of China, for it enabled him to turn his army loose on the Insurgents before they were ef fectlvely organized, and practically de stroy them. The culmination ot his plans f6r supreme power was delayed until he was elected and Installed as president for a term ot five years. The character of the alleged opposition developed In the new parliament Is not clearly stated In the reports from Peking, but whatever It was President Yuan made short work ot It, banishing at one stroke 300 offensive partisans. The remaining members of parliament doubtless are as docile and grateful as Chinamen who have escaped the executioner can be. Campalarnlus; In Italy. The first general election (n Italy under the enlarged franchise, on October IS, was unusually orderly, but the second balloting, on the Id InaL. was fiercely contested, especially In Rome, where the radicals and conservatives strive tor mas tery year after year. The radical bloc, undtr tho leadership of Mayor Nathan, met defeat, and as a consequence Nathan la expected to retire from office. Italian politicians Introduced Into the tatter cam paign tha most up-to-date methods: Be sides the customary stump speeches, mov ing pictures, billposters and the gramo phones were employed to excite the In terest ot voters. Suffragettes, heretofore an unknown quantity In Italian cam paigns, made themselves felt by acttvi participation. One party newspaper was raided and wiecked, violent scenes wer enacted In epots, and some blood wai nhed. In this manner Italy was launched on the stormy ea ot popular elections.

H.-To the Editor of Tho Bee! The situation of affairs In Mexico Is growing dally more difficult - and It appears from condition of affairs as they now exist, that wo have a president and secretary of. state who are not com- ltetent to deal with It, for the handling of tho Mexican question cannot bo classed as statesmanship In any sense. It began with a threat to the newlv established government after the fashion of the schoolmaster admonishing a child that It must behave Itself under pain of a spanking. And as It grew worse, adding assassination, and the overthrowing of all legislative authority by a dictator and tne hollow mockery of an election, the courso taken by our government was neither coercive or imperative. In place of Mr. Bryan, who Is supposed to repro- tent the administration, engaging In loose and bombastic talk, It was and is his plain duty to use few words and strong ones, and boldly and emphatically reaffirm the Monroe doctrine, as would have been done by John Qulncy Adams, William ll Seward, James G. Blaine and Richard Olney. The president has two plans under con sideration. Tho first Is to the recogni tion of the northorn rebels, in co-operating with them In putting down Huerta. restoring peace and In holding a fair national election. This, In my judgment. would be a grave mistake, as the rebels in the north havo no 'right to considers tlon, as thoy rose In revolt when tho vic tory of General Madera had given them a peaceful and lawful republic," thus giv ing Huerta his opportunity to usurp the presidency and afterward declaring him self dictator. They have shown no dis position to sue for peace; they have In cold blood assassinated Americans who tell Into their hands, and held others In prison for ransom. They stand for noth ing but the ambition ot rival leaders of revolution and an unwillingness to sub mit to. national authority. The other suggested feature of his plan Is an election of a ripw president under our own control, and his recognition by all the powers. To do this would require the overthrow of both the present gov ernments' by mljltary force, and glvo to the Mexican resistance .a patrlotlo war against our Invasion of the republio. This proposition, however well meant. Would have but llttlo support in the breast ot the people after the election. in my juagment tne netter way or set tling this troublo would bo to compel all foreign nations to keep their hands off, but not we alone, but the whole American continent undertake tho settlement ot this question. Then the situation would bo radically different With Argentina, Chill, Peru and' Brazil co-operating for the good ot the continent, wo then could not be placed In the attitude of coercing the people of the republio against their will, and it would establish a precedent for peace In showing that Fan-America is not going to endure in Mexico or else where, Uprisings produced by the ambi tions of lawless aspirants to power. This can and should be done and without tho aid or consent ot any foreign power on oarth, and without the shedding of one drop of tho blood of an American soldier. and. Wo will have retained the 'love, respect and admiration of the nations of the world, and above all we must give European powers to understand that all the American people are in entire agreement on one thing; that the leader ship of this continent shall not pass to any European power and that there shall be no expansion of European poauesslons on Its territories, and that the Monroe Doctrine shall ever be an important part of our National constitution. ED. F. MOREARTY, Wants tha Doctor to Decide. V. Neb., Nov. 14.-To the Editor of The Bee: Please permit mo to say a few lines In regard to Dr. I A. Morrlam'e article in your Letter Box. The doctor claims that there is not very much real appen dicitis existing, but how do we (the Igno rant peoplo) know that, as there Is only one person to believe. I know of a caso of chronic disease of the appeudtx, as it was called, I believe, and this person permitted an operation to be performed, as it was done by his em ployer free of cost To this day I fall to see any gTeat Improvement, except that a pain in the right side Is now gone. Constipation Is what I. believe Is ailing that person, and how can that be cured or relieved, as It seems slow, or the case Is not improving? Now, if Dr. Merrlan has some great thing, here Is a chance to use It. or hU Idea Is not any better than an operation for appendicitis. STEADY. P, a I use 103 as a town as I do ,not care to expose myself, and, being in a small town, too much gossip would spread about this. Knocking the Party 8Ioux City Journal (rep.): In the end Senator Hitchcock will have to choooso between lining up with the republicans or tho democrats on the currency bill. Indianapolis News (Ind.): Perhaps Sen ator Hitchcock would be satisfied If tho whole business of passing a currency law were turned over to him. But a good many other peoplo might not be. Sioux City Trlbuno (dem.): Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, may bo having a very enjoyable Umo with his manifested ability to block cuhhency legislation, but he will do well to refrain from seeking another term If ho wants to retain that amused feeling. Nebraska democrats are fired with Indignation at Hitchcock's antics, New York World (dem.): Hitchcock of Nebraska is the senator who tried to cumber up the tariff bill with unrelated matter, and who .darkened his party's council and delayed Its action on that Issue as far as was within his power. He Is now the senator on tho democratic side ot the banking committee who Is performing even more distinguished serv ices along the same line on tho currency lssuo by Joining obstructive republicans In deadlocking tho committee and de feating action wanted by the rest of his party and by the country. Mr. O'Gorman of New York has done some work along this line, and It Is of no credit to him. Mr. Reed of Missouri has done more work of the kind, and it is of less credit to him. But It remains for Mr. Hitch-, cock of Nebraska at the last to bulk a single voto against his party in con gress, against tho administration' and against tho financial Interests of the country, which are demanding early action. If It Is necessary to call a dem ocratic senatorial causcus or conference In order to Iron out this obstructive wrinkle In tho situation, then It cannot be held too quickly. If the bill must thus be mode a party measure, It Is the misfor tune of necsslty. But In cither caso so much the worse for the balky Nebroskan and the bedeviling republicans he Is playing with.
