Too Proud to Fight
Our leading article of yeater- day appears to bavo oreated some thing of stir. It has bean varionely described. Some say if was to the point and others that it was somewhat unfair. One gentleman, anir terview with! |whom spgaars in thia inane, mikes quite a good point when he nays, blame the administration and not the people. We may explain at once that observations - MA yesterday wers intended to apply to the administration rather than to the poople; but it is permit- ted to ask whether the people of a country rejoicing in free, popular government are entirely blamslees if the Administration follows a line of conduct which the majority of the people feel to be wrong and indefensible? For one thing, the Administration la chosen by the people and if it has been wieely chosen, should be able to reflect the wishes of the people, on any subject of vilak importance; if it has been unwise- ly chosen, the fault lies at the doors of the people. For another thing in countries like America and Britain what the people demand the people will have whether the Administration like it or mo

An audi- ence of native-born Americans we imagine would have given to the atterance a very different recep tion. An obligation clearly reats upon the neutral States to see that no belligerent grossly violates the rules of warfare which all the nations have assisted to make. Even without actually taking up arms they have it in their power to forcibly express their sense of such outlawry as Germany has been guilty of, and the world will impatiently await more definite information regarding the special example which it is President Wilson's ambition to set before the world.
