London, May 23. Certainly within
ine ncxi rort-nignt prooawy wnnm a
week Kngland will awaken to the fact
that civil war has flnallj- come as the
only logical consequence of the gov
ernment's handling of the Ulster situ
ation.
This expresses the opinion of the ma
Jorlty of Iondon daily newspapers and
weeklies published here. Of the lat
ter the Nation declares editorially, re
ferring to Sir Edward Carson's state
men that Ulster, if driven to civil war.
would take the consequences like men.
"Take the consequences," seems to
mean to Join hands with its old friend,
"Damn the consequences." and will be
likely to come to the same end," says
the editorial.
The Pall Mall Gazette cautiously
calls the attention of Its readers to
the likelihood that behind these "elec
trical disturbances In the house of
commons Turk contingencies of lndefl
nltely deeper gravity. The
government is deliberately forcing the
loyalists to an extremity of nervous
tension. A people who have armed
themselves to resist tyranny may not
be able to remain much longer on the
defensive In the presence of final prep
arations for their enslavement.
Other editorial expressions in both

eans ae equally emphatic that the
country is on the verge of war. ,

SAYS GOVERNOR WEST
If Necessary Will Use Militia
Because Special Agent
Fund "Is Exhausted.
(Salem Bureau of The Journal. t
Salem. Or.. May 25. Grafton's, an
other alleged "shady Joint" at Milwau-
kie, is the next place upon which Gov
ernor West expects to land with the
militia, if present conditions keep up,
according to a statement made by the
governor today. The governor said he
had to use the militia in closing Buch
places because he had no more funds
for the employment of special agents.
in my opinion urauon s is a worse
resort than the one we closed up," said
the governor, comparing Gratton's
wnn tne briars chid, which is now
closed and being guarded by members
of the militia. "Until recently we have
been unable to get inside information
concerning it. We have been morally
certain about the character of the
place, but owlngto a lack of funds to
nire operators or special agents, we
could not get as much information as
we wanted. However, we are gradu
ally picking It up, and when we do get
It we are going to land on them."
The three girls who have been taken
into custody by Mrs. Iola G. Baldwin
in connection with the Friars' club ex
pose stated that it was to Gratton's
that the men who took them to the
club wanted them to go with them and
get rooms.
It may be that the governor will
ask the emergency board, which is
called to meet Friday to authorize a
deficiency In the state printing fund,
to authorise the use of $1000 or $1500
more for the employment of special
agents. The fund appropriated for this
purpose " is exhausted. The governor
said, however, be was not certain he
would ask the board for anything. It
will probably depend upon the atti
tude the members of the board take in
other matters. .

Wilson and Colonel Have an
Interview Scheduled for
Tomorrow at White House,
Is Announcement.
LUNCHEON INVITATION
DECLINED BY COLONEL
Samuel Blythe Says It Ought
to Be Most Interesting
Talk of Modern Times.
Washington, May 25. Former Pres
ident Theodore Roosevelt will visit the
White House tomorrow afternoon.
President Wilson let It be known to
day that he had Invited the colonel
to luncheon. The former president
round he would not have time for this,
but replied that he Would go to the
White House before his lecture before
the National Geographical society.
Politicians here are greatly Inter
ested In Colonel Roosevelt's visit. The
invitation to the White House was ex
tended regardless of the colonel's op
position to the repeal of the exemp
tlon clause In the Panama canal act
and to the administration's Colombian
treaty .policies.
Colonel Roosevelt's visit overshad
owed everything else today. Politi
cians hope to get him to consider plans
for the fall campaign. Senator Lodge
of Massachusetts believes the Repub
licans and Progressives should com
bine in the coming congressional cam
paign, and he was expected t'o present
a scheme with that end In view to
Colonel Rooseve.lt.
Bljthe Ixmgs for Dictaphones.
Seattle. May 25. Samuel Blvthe.
the Washington correspondent and
special writer, visiting In Seattle, to
day was intensely interested in the
United Press report of the invitation
extended by President Wilson to
Theodore Roosevelt to meet him at the
White House.
When a reporter told Blythe that
President Wilson had requested an in
terview with ex-President Roosevelt
and that Roosevelt had set tomorrow
afternoon for the talk, Blythe raised
bis eyebrows in amazement, then
pursed his lips in a barely audible
whistle, then laughed.
'I'd like to have a rinrslde ticket to
fhax-cuteraatloaVj,Aa -w;
grin. "That will be the most Inter
estlng conversation of modern times.
at least I can't recall one that has the
possibilities of a heart to heart talk
with President WMlson and Roosevelt.
Say, if I had two dictaphones, a ring
side seat and the moving picture con
cession to that interview my fortune
would be made.
"In view of thejjresent situation, of
the many questions now under con
sideration, and also knowing the two
men and their characteristics as I do,
I know that there will be a conversa
tion that would be worth a lot to
hear. There are a thousand things
those two men could talk about that
would make fine 'copy.' Even If there
was no Mexican trouble. Just the mere
fact that an ex-presldent of Roose
velt's type and a president like Wil
son were talking together is an event
of considerable importance. But with
the Mexican situation w-ell, I'm sorry
I'm not going to hear it."
"Of course, the invitation from Wil
son to Roosevelt can be regarded as
merely a courtesy that the president
would extend to an ex-president, but
a conversation between a president and
an ex-president, and a conversation
between Woodrow Wilson and Theo
dore Roosevelt is something else."
