The American Army.

In connection with the renewal of hos
tilities between Mexican factions and the
possibility that the United States may
have to employ force at some stage Of
this new embodiment it is stated that
this government has 22.601 troops on the
Mexican border, $500 at Vera Cruz and
i 500 at Panama, available for immediate
service That makes an army of $500
men The figure seems ridicuiously small
when compared with the reports of the
military operations in Europe This is
only q portion of an army corps. and
an engagement on the other side of the
Atlantic in which less than a corps takes
part is rated as a skirmish. Often since
the war began there has been authentic
news of the precipitation of battles be-
tween armies comprised of eight and ten
corps each. In the present fighting in
northern France the German attacking
force is estimated at $4,000 men, or
about seven corps.
The scale of the European war is, of
course. gigantic. The army of little
Belgium is greater than any force that
the United States could put into the
field within two months from a declara-
ton of war. This Is not to suggest
that the United States should maintain
a standing army in comparison with its
fighting forces or that it should engage
in compulsory service in order to estab-
lish a substantial body of military train

The German Attack Renewed.

Present indications point to a concen-
tration Of German effort in the western
campaign IN a renewed thrust against
the allied lines in the effort to reach
Calais. The attempt to move westward
along the coast has apparently been aban-
doned as a result of the checks received
from the Belgian. English and French
fighting forces, aided by the waters that
poured through the cut dikes Now the
assault Is being made upon that portion
OF the line which runs irregularly from
Ypres to Arras. a distance of about sixty
miles. with Lille approximately i'll the
center. Some of the reports state that
fresh German force, est4bated at
100000 men. has been directed against the
allied positions along this front. but that
thus far the allies have maintained their
ground in the face Of the German as
sault. French dispatches aver that the
German infantry attack is not as stout
it was in the earlier stages of the
lighting in France and Flanders. and one
OF the English reports states that the
chief German strength in this new move
ment lies in the artillery, which is much
more numerous than that of the allies
The abandonment of the coastwise
route as means of reaching Calais is, of
course. accepted by the British and French
people as a definite German defeat. what
ever may follow in the way of an amend
ed campaign. In effect it is victory
for the allied armies. though in its ac
conpiishment they had the material sup
port of English and French warshps,

material factor in checking the German
advance. BY realigning the attacking

army at a distance of about twenty-five
or thirty miles from the coast the Ger
mans have eliminated the naval force of
the allies and have at the same time
avoided the menace of inundation. which
was so powerful factor in their failure
along the coast.
1t is apparently accepted in -both
Paris and London that if the present
movement %of the German army fails
the kaiser's forces will be withdrawn
from French soil in the north and per-
haps altogether from that territory.
Although this new German thrust be-
tween Ypres and trras renders it nee
essary for the allies to concentrate
their forces along that line. sharp ag-
greSsive action is simultaneously IN
progress. it appears. north of fpres,
with the purpose of throwing the Ger
man right back from Ostend to and
beyond Rruges. If this maneuver can
be maintained while the main allied
army is holding the line from ipres
to Arras the Germans will be in a
most uncomfortable position, and re-
tirement to prevent the cutting of com
munications by an allied thrust down
ward through Bruges toward Ghent
may become necessary. ON the other
hand. German success on the frres-
Arras line will leave the allied forces

Several times since the beginning OF

that the western campaign had reached
the point of crisis at w-.ich positive

We're imminent. In each case. however,
through Il shifting of the lines and
change of plan the crisis has been
averted. The German strategy has been
remarkable in its tenacity and in the
ability Of the commanders to maintain
their forces at aggressive strength
Now once gain apparently the crisis
is imminent, but in the light OF the
happenings of the past two months 1t
is unsa fe to predict assured1y the con
sequences of a failure of the present
German assault upon the allied lines.
Such a failure might be followed by

First Direct Election of Senators.

Tuesdays election was notable i'll
that it was the first time that United
States senators We're elected in all the
states choosing members of the upper
house, under the new constitutional
amendment. Votes were east directly
for thirty-four senators, two of the
states electing for both the long and
the short terms. With the possible eN-
ception of Nevada and Wisconsin the
results OF these elections are now def
nitely known three days after the clos
ing of the polls. Under the old system
of indirect elections by the legislatures
there would at this time be but little
certainty as TO the outcome. It would
be known in most cases that he repub
licans or the democrats controlled the
le legislatures of the Senator-chooSing
states. and thus in an approximate
way the effect OF the election upon the
upper house would be made apparent.
But nothing definite would be known
as to the individuals later entitled to
take their seats in the Senate. and al
most invariably in several cases there
would be conditions making for contest
and deadlocks. involving delays and
even scandals respecting the validity of
the choice.
The clearHess Of the results so
promptly recorded under the direct
election plan stands as one of the main
advantages of the new system That
personal popularity remains a strong
factor in the choosing of senators is
shown by the fact that there are In sew
eral cases wide differences between the
votes cast for senators and those cast
for state officers. In Oregon. for exam
pie. Senator Chamberlain was returned
by large majority. while the repub-
Hcan state ticket was elected. In New
York Wadsworth polled over $1,000
votes less than Whitman. republican
candidate for governor. Elsewhere the
senatorial and state tickets ran mate
rally divergent. indicating that the
people express their choice for senator
to a material extent irrespective of
party designation.
In all likelihood there will be no con-
tests before the Senate as result Of
lar vote. The results in Nevada, Wis
consin. and possibly Illinois, may be SO
close that the official returns will show
only slight margins. But it is difficult
to see how even such small majorities
can lead to claims over which the Sen
ate will have jurisdiction in determin-
ing the right Of applicants to sit in that
body. The new amendment has fully
justified itself by the results

The Next House.

The complexion of the next House be-
ing settled. speculation turns to the
matter of its organization. 1t IS as
sumed that Mr.. Clark Will be the
Speaker, and Mr. Mann the leader OF
the minority Each has SO fine u record
In office, reelection has been fully de-
served, and should he accorded without
contest.
There is some discussion about the
majority leadership. Mr.. Underwood
goes to the Senate. AS the present
second in command is Mr.. kitchin OF
North Carolina, he expects advance
nent, and his friends will insist on II.
He is a competent man of experience,
and entitled by precedent to the place
The chances are in his favor.
But, say some-softly, behind the
hand-he is a southern man. and as
Mr. Clark is a southern man IT would
be good politics on the eve of presi-
Dental election to go north for the floor
leader.
This objeciion cverlooks the fact that
Tuesdays elections restored former
democratic conditions. The south is
aSain the nlainstay of the party. She

vote in the next House. She is little
discontenued. Although not threaten

sion have caused heartache: and to turn

cality would add injury 10 injury.

What good has come out OF shearing
the Speaker Have the committee as
signments been improved? Has the
rules committee performed better serv-
ice because of his absence Has legis-
fation been Improved because OF his
disassociation with it?
These questions may all he answered
in the negative. The present House
has presented the remarkab spectacle
Of dispensing with the services of its
ablest Majority member. With years
of experience as a legislator, with de-
batting powers of the first class, Mr..
Clark has been condemned to the small
duties of a parliamentarian. His larg-
est equipment has not been employed
HAD it been, the work of the House
might have cost the party fewer votes
last Tuesday.
The democrats had described Mr.. Can
non as boss. and declared that they
would have no boss. So by stripping
the Speaker of all power they asked
praise on the claim that they had
solved the question. And yet they put
themselves completely into the hands
OF the President. who has exercised
more power over legislation than any
Speaker ever did. They accepted a
hoss, and one not a member of the
House.

The Eternal Pity of It.
From the Boston Herald.

The longer the war continues it's
dread slaughter the more neutral
minded observers must feel the need
of some great investigating tribunal
to ascertain what 1t is all about. If
We had such an international board it
might tell us whom to blame for start =
ing the rumpus, and on what terms
the struggle should now be made to
stop. What a relief this would be to
the truth seekers of the world. as well
as to those who are paying the more
direct and awful penalties of the pres
ent methods of settlement! Americans
returning from Germany are usually
German sympathizers. Americans who
come from England. France or Belgium
are heart and soul with the allies. The
German people, united behind their
kaiser. believe their war absolutely a
defensive one. and that the allies are
conducting it with extraordinary bru-
tality and dishonor. The people of
Great Britain. France and Belgium
we know little about the Russians
feel exactly the same way toward the
kaiser's following. They believe the
worst of him and of 1t, because they
hear the worst. The fires of hatred on
both sides are thus being constantly
fed.
