tho swing uround tho circle Is the ad
vancement of his boom for the democra
tic presidential nomination In 1912, Oov.
Wnmirow Wilson announced today his
plans for a month's trip through tho
weht.
Wilson wilt visit Portland, Seattle,
San Krunclsco, and Los Angeles und
probably will call upon und confer with
William J. Hryun at his Nebraska home,
Falrvlew.
Wilson will baso his claims to politi
cal preferenco largely on tho work ac
complished by tho New Jersey legisla
ture which adjourned ut 3:45 o'clock
this morning. It is admitted on ull
sides that Wilton has routed the demo
cratelc stute machine and that ho will
head tho Now Jersey delegation to the
democratic national convention. Wilson
Is greatly plcabed with the work done by
the legislature.
"The progressive legislation enacted,"
he suld today, "constitutes ono of the
most remarkable records, I venture to
think, that ever distinguished a blngle
session of any legislature In tho coun
try. Tho principal achievement of Wilson
nnd his friends In the legislature was
the election of James Murtlno to the
United State senate, in splto of the
desperate, efforts made to defeat him by
tho whole power of the old machine. The
legislature also passed bills adopting
the Oregon primary plan, Including elec
tion of delegates to national conven
tions; a corrupt practices act, stipulat
ing what campaign expenditures are
legal, and an employers liability law,
eliminating the "fellow servant" negll
gence clause.
After his bill for a commission form
of government for cities was defeated
In tho house. Gov. Wilson otlfled Its
leaders ho would hold up al appoint
ments untlt the measure was passed. Thei
house at once reconsidered anil passed
the bill. It creates u sweeping public
utilities commission.
Tho only serious setback Wilson en

At Same Time Great Britain is
Throwing Fits of Enthusiasm Ov
er Peace Proposals Campaign is
Waged for a Greater Army.
LONDON, April 22. vt tho very
same time that Englishmen are
throwing fits of enthusiasm over
the Idea of an Anglo-American arbitra
tion treaty, with universal peace as its
ultimate, object, a vigorous campaign
Is being waged throughout Great Brit
ain In favor of an English standing
army of 1,000,000.
An organization known ns tho Na
tional Hervlca leuguu ifas tho movement
tn hund. Hitherto this leuguu bus been
carrying on its work so qluotly thut peo
ple who really dlhllko fighting failed
to realize how strong a sentiment It
was creutlng. They nru beginning to
realize, however, and it is strong
enopgh enough, uccordlng even to the
peace party's own showing, to make any
country which contemplates a "peace
agreement" with England do a little
preliminary Investigating. Otherwise It
Is liable to find Itself mixed up In u
"peaco ugreement" of which tho real
purpose Is to linposo peaco by thrashing
everybody else Into peacefulness.
The English, be it understood, have al
ways detested the idea of universal mil
itary service that i. of conscription
Germany and Franco and Italy and Bus
sla, where conscription prevails, are
near enough ut hand to let the English
see what kind of results It gives They
could not fan 11 to observe him Invarlu
bly, In these countries. It Is used as an
Instrument of oppression, what a fright
ful financial burden It Is, whut Incon
venience und suffering It means to the
Individual and how little real good It
does ufter all. For, when everything
Is said and done, tho antl-mlltarl&ts ar
gue, England, with the smullest stand
ing army In Europe, Is. also the most
powerful country In Europe.
Bo when a gronp of reactionaries,
alarmed by the growth of republicanism
In Great Britain and anxious to devise
a scheme for sotting things backward
a few generations, began to urge the de
sirability of turning England Into an
united camp, the antl-mlllturlsth paid
very lltllo uttentlon to them. Tho poo
pi arc too dead set against conscrip
tion to be affeoted by the militarists'
talk, thought tho antl-mllltarlsts, so
what's the use of worrying about It?
But tho militarists went to work very
cleverly, First they stimulated Inter
est In (lie militia. Then they began to
push their propaganda In Us ranks.
Next they started the boy scouts move
ment and used It to the same end They
shouted about the dangers of a foreign
