SAFETY OF ALL US. CITIZENS PLEDGED BY
 GERMAN DIPLOMAT

Washington, Sept. If the German armies lay siege to Paris, Count von Bernstorff, the representative of Elm peror William in this country, will make every effort to obtain safe con- duct for all Americans who may be in the city through the German lines. He volunteered that promise in a tele- gram from New York to Secretary of State Bryan
 Ambassador Herr5ck cables from Paris that Americans are pourin g into that city by the hundreds, and from Havre as quickly as possible. He has secured the entire carrying capacity of the French liner Touraine, which will sail on Thursday. She will have among her passengers many tourists from Switzerland who were so delayed on the way that they miss ed the Rochambeau, which sailed Sat urday.
 Minister stovau notifies the State Department that he has sent three special trains from Switzerland to Paris and that the remaining Arneri- cans will he moved out within ten days.
 Minister whit1ock announces that the Americans in Brussels are still safe.
 eThe Government can dismiss fear for the Americans" Consul William P. Kent reports from Leipzig, adding that the moving of his fellow country men through Germany to Rotterdam III is progressing rapidly.
 Secretary Charles s. Wilson. in charge of the embassy at St. Peters burg, cables that the American tour ists will all be out of Russia this week. Their financial needs have been fully met.
 Some ,5o0 Americans from Vienna are expected in Italy, where they will find transportation on two ships for which Ambassador T. N. Page has made arrangements.
 Numerous automobiles in which Americans were touring Europe were seized ia1 Germany, Austria. and France for military purp oses, receipts being given in most cases. They were glad to escape with their lives and made only feeble protest Some who have reached home have filed claims with the State Department, demand ing satisfaction for such high handed action and immediate com pensation.
 In answer to an inquiry on the sub- ject Secretary Bryan said that there may be some such claims among the multitude of all sorts. but he did not recall any at that moment. They will follow the usual course, anyhow, and receive. due considera tilon.
 Dispatches from embassies and le- cations state that on investigation complaints of indignitiess have usually resulted in disclosing intolerance and fmpatience on the part of tourists.

WOULD PAY RAILROADS
 $3,O0O,OOO EXTRA FOR
 CARRYING U. s. MAILS

Washington, Sept. IA bill has been introduced in the Senate by Senator Bankhead to increase the annual mail compensation of the railroads by $3.- 0oO, ,000
 The bill embodies the final recom- mendations of the joint congressional committee on railway mail pay, of which former Senator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon is chairman. The report of the committee recommends that the railroads receive for trans porting the mails a compensation that will yield them a revenue. per car-mile approximately as high as they receive for passenger transportation
 The committee reached this concIus- ion on the theory that the service of transporting the mail is coincident with passenger service and must conform to the same requirements as to speed, regularity, frequency and safety

 ATTACK ON DONOVAN. To the Editor of The Farmer. Sir:
 Tn the Telegram the other morning appeared an editorial asking what Donovan had done in Congress. I would like to answer that by saying that think he has raised Hades with Special Privilege and that is why we sent hirl there. But if he had sat still and did nothing but vote against government by injunction and in sup President since Lincoln he would have delivered the goods. Donovan is in Washington supporting the President where we want him to be while this war is going on, and any insinuatio ons from the Telegram or anyone else that Donovan's record is not clean is an inslnuation against the record of Wilson for Donovan has been with Wilson in every move that he has made. This is too serious a time in the history of this nation to permit the petty bickerings of politicians to interfere with the welfare of the coun- try. The Democrats of Connecticut and the Republicans of Connecticut stood as a unit when an invading arr my crossed the Potomac and the Democrats and Republicans of Con necticut will stand as one in this pe- rfod when the great question that the entire world is asking is: .Can Con- stitutional America prove it's strength at this time by remaining at peace and perfect "a new banking system and establish 9 merchant marine that the commerce of the world may go on-''

MIR. McADOo's ATTITUDE

L 4
 The wisdom of the Wilson end of the administration finds splendid backing in the statement of Secretary NcAdoo, who, without attempting to deceive people concerning the dam age which foreign wars are likely to mess is to help everybody to meet the situation as best they can.''
 Considering the peculiarly heavy burden which has been placed upon business Interests by the present cri- sis, involving the necessary =readjust- commercial relations, it is fortunate for this country that it has in posi- tions of influence and power at Wash ington men who refuse to lose their heads and are directing their ener- gies to doing what they can towards keeping the business interests of the country protected against unnecessary panics and dangerous imitation. Par ticularly reassuring is that part of Secretary McAdoo's statement in which he says:
 Amy issue of currency by state banks is utterly unnecessary, and it is a waste of time to talk about it. Enough national bank currency is authorized by present laws to handle the cotton and all .the other crops of the country There is authorization in law for enough currency to wreck the treasury has wide discretion in the issue of this currency. intend to see that all currency issued is safe because I tell you. gentlemen, that fyou cannot do anything worse than to infate the currency to a point where you will wreck the credit of the country
 For the safeguardfng of business credit much depends upon the way in which the national currency laws are administered With less trust orthy hands at the helm there might be just cause to fear.-Hartford Times

BALDWIN AND THE VOTERS

The results of the election in the Second Congressional district in 1912 are of interest to the respective sup porters of Governor Baldwin and Congressman Mahan, as to the rela- tive merits of each as a 'vote-g -getter'' before the people.
 The tabulated vote of the Second district New London, Windham, Mid d1esex and Holland counties), as given In the Connecticut Register. was as follows:
 Dem. Rep. President ..... 14.517 13.51O
 Dem. majority LOOT Governor, 15,5S6 13,527 Dem. majority 2.O59.
 Lieutenant-g governor 15,269 13,717
 Dem. majority 2,552.
 Secretary of state. 14.s74 14.112 Dem. majority S62. Comptroller ..... 15,023 13,902
 Dem. majority 1,121.
 Treasurer .,.... 14.s54 1s,s27
 Dem. majority, 1,027. Mahan (dem.) for cong., 14,936, King, (rep) 1E421; dem. majority. 515.
 These figures show Baldwin's where the city of New London gave Mahan a very large vote. It is, of course, true that King, Ma hans opponent for congress in that election, made mighty good show ing, running over 800 ahead of the head of his ticket, and over 300 votes ahead of the highest man on the Re publican state ticket, and to that ex- tent Mahan suffered; and this, in a, measure, explains why Mahan came out with less votes than any candidate on the Democratic state ticket. At the same time the figures quoted above carry their own meaning as to the relative strength of Baldwin and Nfahan. in eastern Connecticut New Haven Journa1-Coqrier.
