been reduced. the Russians have raj
lied, and 1t has been necessary to
send the German troops back to pre-
vent invasion of Teutonic territory.
The Russian defeats at Przemysl
and Lemberg have been attributed
to the lack of ammunition and not
to lack of men or to any particular
superiority of Teutonic strategy. This
ammunition shortage is accredited,
curiously enough, to the imposition
of drastic terms upon China by Japan,
which for a time seemed likely to re-
suit in hostilities in the far east. That
possibility has now passed. and it is
reported that the Japanese NUM-
ton factories are busy with Russian
orders, and that ammunition is now
being rushed across Siberia, with a
heavy accumulation of stores at
Vladivostock awaiting transport. IT
it is true that Russia is now in way
to replenish her ammunition supply
both by way of Japan and through
the port of Archangel another refor-
nation of lines is possible, and per-
haps another advance against Teu-
tonic territory. This in considerable
measure depends upon whether the
Russian left wing operating in
southeastern Galicia has been abso-
lutely cut off from the right and CEN
ter by the German capture of Lem
berg. Late reports indicate that the
weather is settled in that region, and
that the roads are in fair condition,
so that it is possible for the Rus
slams to have effected their retreat
without losing much. As long as the
Russian armies remain substantially
intact they present sufficient men
ace to Germany to prevent the de-
tachment of any considerable force
for operation on the western front,
where. in the final analysis. the war
is to be fought to finish.

voters under the Constitution to ap-
proach the ballot box is live one.
Mondays decision of the Supreme
Court on the subject has given both
the politicians and the general pub
lie something to think about respect
ing elections and their real signifi-
canoe. The grandfather clause" in
certain state constitutions grew out
of such practices as are now under
consideration and condemnation in
Indiana; and the Supreme Court in a
unanimous decision says that the sub
terfuge is unlawful.
The whole matter of the suffrage
and of election laws is thus brought
up. No more important matter ex-
lists. 1t goes to the root of things.
Unless we have honest elections
everything is vitiated. The stream is
befouled at its source. When the
Constitution is violated, and ballot
boxes show. not the will of the
voters lawfully expressed, but the
manipulation of politicians skilled in
skulduggery, there is not, properly
speaking, government of, by and for
the people. And that is what we
must have if we are to fulfill our
destiny as a nation.
Perfect conditions are not obtain
able. but conditions greatly improved
over present ones can be, and should
issue from the present agitation. To
describe the evil frankly and fully
is to invite It's correction.

The Pan.American Committees.

Secretary McAdoo has acquitted
himself excellently in the matter of
the committees to carry forward the
work begun at the recent pan-Ameri-
can financial conference. His selec-
tions are men highly qualified for
the work. They represent capital,
experience, education and travel. and
are in the fullest sympathy with the
large purposes embraced in the
movement for closer business rela-
tions of all kinds between North and
South America. They not only have
a stake in the game, but know how
to play the game to the general ad-
vantage. That they will so play ad-
nits of no doubt.
Happily for this country, and. in
deed, for the whole hemisphere, these
men have both the time and the in
clination to perform this service.
They are the sort needed. Projects
of great magnitude are in contenpla-
ton, and both vision and experience
are necessary for shaping and essab-
fishing them.
and they are expected TO be record
times. Not only new things but big
things are on the card. Money in
quantities will be necessary, and men
competent to handle it required. 1t
is going to be an era of big busi-
ness-bigger in some lines than the
world has ever known. The ma
terial advancement of a hemisphere
calling for readjustments of world
wide value is very large order.
A recognition of this fact appears
in the names Mr.. McAdoo has sub
mitted. They hold out hope of sue
cess in the success they are already
associated with here at home. The
men who bear them have made good
in enterprises of size and conse-
quence in the development of the
United States. Mr.. McAdoo gives
them opportunity to study wider
field. and report upon it to those de-
sirous of entering upon its tillage;
and some of them, in all probability,
will enter it themselves.
Captains of industry have not been
soured or discouraged by the reign
of terror which has existed in this
country for nearly a score of years.
Targets for political demagogues, and
Unfortunately held responsible for
black sheep among themselves, they
have gone their way and as a rule
gone forward, improving their indi-
vidual chances and at the same time
improving the country. Being fit to
survive. they have survived, and are
in condition to apply their talents
more widely than heretofore.
This work will not be easily or
quickly performed, but that it will

Honest and Lawful Elections.

where such offenses have been
charged. too often only the small fry
have suffered. Repeaters and petty
polling officers have satisfied the de-
mand for punishment. Their en-
ployers-those who had plotted the
work and stood to win most by its
carrying out-seemed immune from
prosecution.
At Terre Haute men higher up"
were not only indicted, but con-
victed, and are now in prison. At
Indianapolis indictments have been
returned; and while those under
charges are entitled to suspension
of public judgment until they have
had hearing in court, it is clear
that the grand jury took the most
serious view of its responsibility,
and. acting upon the information pre-
sented, discharged its full duty.

The hen, she is noble bird.
Her speech is most sincere.
Her voice when it is daily heard
Is music to the ear.
And occupation seems to be
The thing for which she'll beg.
For hours she'll sit with placid glee
Upon a china egg.
Sometimes when she is thus em-
ployed
Her mood with ire is fraught;
She does not like to be annoyed
BY an intrusive thought.
It is her hobby, her delight.
Which nothing else can match,
To nurse along both day and night
An egg that cannot hatch.
