England's Foremost Soldier Gone.

The death of Lord Roberts removes
the most familiar and impressive fig
ure in English military ranks. Though
he had perhaps reached the age when
he was relatively but of slight active
service, nevertheless his personality
was an inspiration to Englishmen. and
In this great crisis he had proved him
self of high value in aiding and per-
haps directing the organization of the
British army. The real work of mill
tary management has since the out
break of the war been intrusted to
Kitchener, schooled under Roberts and
his trusted coadjutor in the Boer cam
paign. "Bobs," as Lord Roberts was
known to Engiishmen. stood for mill
tary preparedness For several years
past he had been preaching compulsory
service as the only way to put England
in a position to defend herself against
aggression. Though he did not succeed
in changing the policy of the British
government in this respect, he undoubt-
edly made a deep impression upon the
public mind and perhaps made easier
the task of the government in this
crisis.
In his day Lord Roberts was a great
soldier, valorous, resourceful and usu
ally successful in his undertakings.
His fame rested chiefly upon his work

The Sixteenth Week of War.

The sixteenth -eek of the war in
Europe opens with but little change
IN the situation during the past
seven days. In northern France and
western Belgium the lighting has been
continuously furious without any mate
rial alteration in the lines. The allies
have resisted the heavy German as
saults upon them in the main, though
the Germans have scored some success,
notably the occupation of Dixmude.
The latest accounts. however, suggest
that this advance has been negatived
by allied success at other points. which
has rendered the German occupation at
DiNmude unlikely to continue. The
Germans are reported to have opened
dykes. and thus flooded q large area,
impeding the advance of the allies in
treme German right. This duplicates
the performance of the Belgians, who
recently inundated a considerable area
and checked the German advance along
the seacoast in the rush toward Calais.
In'the eastern campaign tho situation
at present Is unquestionably unfavor-
able to the German cause. The Rus
SLAMS have advanced to within a dan
gerously short distance of Posen. while
pushing onward through East Prussia
and reaching so near to Cracow as
practically to invest that city. Evil
IDENTIFY the Russians have pressed the
Austrian armies into such positions in
Galicia that they no longer fear flank
ing attacks to offset their assault upon
Cracow. The situation in the east is

Whether it will be possible to continue

The Short Session.

Work on some of the supply bills FOR
the next fiscal year has been begun.
The other bills will be taken in hand
as soon as may be.
These measures will have the right
Of way at the short session; and al
though the time allowance is only
three months it is sufficient. There
will not be the shadow of an excuse
worthy the name if any of the bills
should fail, and an extra session on
that account become necessary.
Nor to accomplish this should it be
necessary to speed up Congress in
either branch. No special rules should
be brought in. No gag procedure
should be adopted if proposed. In the
Senate, of course, no matter what the
House may do. "railroading" will be
impossible.
This time the supply bills will afford
texts for unusually full discussion. In
the first place they will probably show
an effort on the part of the majority
to reduce expenses. Last session. s
grand total was a little too grand. 1t
set the pegs. The democracy met it in
the campaign, and was greatly embar-
rassed by it.
In the second place there are some
items which, though large. should not
be reduced. There are others which,
though large. should be increased. We
are facing new conditions, and must
provide for them, not in partisan but
non-partisan spirit. An effort to play
politics by either side will fail If made.
This condition, then, warns against
he
pressing circumstances. Simply be-
cause measure has been talked

Baltimore platform. the less said about
that the better. Not intended humor-
ously. it has yet inspired more humor
than any production having that object
distinctly in view.
Even though the supplies for the next
fiscal year are voted in due time there
may yet be the necessity for an extra
session OF the new Congress. That
must depend on developments having
to do with the war. We may not be
drawn into the struggle. Certainly
every effort win be made and support
ed to keep US out. But so much Is in
volved. and so much is possible. there
is no forecasting matters three DAYS
much less three months. ahead. If

The Belgian Soldier.


From the very beginning of the war
we have been reading about the Bel

of always bobbing up. One day 1t has
been completely crushed by German
army million strong and the next
day the German hordes are absolutely
annihilated' by it. This little army
usually seems to be in the front ranks
of the fighters. and usually is on the
front pages of the newspapers What sort
of men is it composed of? What sort
of chap is the Belgian soldier? Ac
cordins to the correspondent Of the
London Times, who has watched him
on the march, in carabets and camps,
fghting from behind all kinds of cover
or none. wounded or down from sheer
physical exhaustion, he Is, "for all his
manhood. very much of a child. A
chatterbox and full Of laughter. and
never are his laugh and badinage so
quick as when he has the sternest

tain air of gayety about him. In spite
Of his invariably being tired. unshaven
