" . LilSlS Onc, DuHI OF OCTaP iron

The railroad that pays the biggest
dividends on the capital invested is,
according to the Technical World mag

IN northern Alberta Canada. 200 miles

rails. Its rolling stock consists of two
battered freight cars, which are push
ed along the road by the men who ship
the freight, no locomotives being used.
The freight that is handled on this
road consists principally of furs. which
are towed up the Athabaska river on
ws hauled by men, are laden on
lid cars, pushed down the railroad and
Jped again on other scows. thereby

With the sinking of the liner An coma, another great sea fatality involv
 ing the destruction of women and chil- dren and other innocent lives has been added to the long list of inexcusable atrocities for which the Teutonc al- lies are responsible, and has further confirmed the long accepted view of the world that the Germanic nations have little or no regard for the moral or humanitarian aspects of their actions so that they result in the injury of their enemies This view has not become matter of fixed belief through occas- ional or isolated instances wherein some particularly brutal inclination was manifested but is rather the cul- imitation of a series of acts, involving the destruction of innocent lives, but few of which contained the least par ticle of justification on the score of military necessity; which alone can and harmless are visited with the hor- TOTS and brutalities of war.
 This ruthless and savage barbarity, so strangely irreconcilable with the usual outward manifestation of the German nature, has found expression not alone in the sinking of ships load ed with harmless neutrals but has also been displayed with startling vivid ness in the many aerial attacks on towns in France and Britain whose partial or complete destruction could in no degree affect the issues of the moment or the determination of the war and where the prospect of death and injury which was logically bound follow such actions fell largely upon those whose destruction could avail nothing at all in deciding the outcome of the great military struggle-women and children. Two after town has been attacked and hundreds of lives sacri- feed for no other reason than what the Germans have termed "the moral effect produced Women and inno-
 cent babes have been torn and dis
 membered by the blasting shock of
 bombs and grenades merely because of
 desire to produce an impression which it is futilely believed would tend to l destroy the moral fiber of the enemy | This fact is openly admitted by Ger | man military leaders who at the same | time acknowledge the futility of their | aerial operations as determining fac | tors in the game of war
 In nearly every case where a town has been attacked by the Zeppelins the larger portion of the victims have been those who by all moral and ethical rules should be held absolved for the acts which engender international strife ala hatred. What part have women and children in determining or hinder ing the issues which lead to war or what part do they play in deciding the final issue? None whatever. The best that war can bring to them is g'itf and suffering whatever may be the results Sorrow and heartache is their portion be the struggle great or small, near or remote and the man or men who can deliberately visit upon them its most dreadful effects save in the course of desperate military neces- sity is convicted of the most brutal savagery and barbarianism.

CONGRESS will meet again next Mon
day. Already Washington is filling up
with statesmen who are ready to tackle
the many important problems that will
come up for consideration. Both the
Senate and the House will have Demo-
cratic majorities, but one OF the difficulties
to be met in the Senate is the question OF
adopting clotu:e rule. One of the an
tiquated rules of the Senate allows tile
minority TO fllbuster indefinitely and talk
eternally when it desires to prevent a
vote on measure, thus taking from the
majority the right to exercise its power.
The Democrats propose 10 adopt cloture
rule, though this is opposed by some Of
the members OF the plrtY and will proba-
bly, be fought by all of the Republicans.
The administration will have some very
important measures for action by Con-
gress, and already it is foreshadowed that
they will be opposed by the Republicans,
though entirely non-partisau in character.
The necessity for cloture rule seems
imperative, especially in view OF the fact
that the Republican forces will be led by
such bigots as Mr.. Mann ia the House and
Senator Smoot in the Senate.
