THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society

Tiflis-''There can be few more won derful landscapes in the world than those around Tiais. the ancient capital of the Georgian Kingdom, now the center of Russian government in the Caucasus and the advanced base of the Russian armies operating against the Turks, says a statement given to the press today by the National Geo. graphic Society. "Tiflis is in the midst of the mountains which divide Russia from southern A-sia. in the midst of a Tended, fOrCeful spirited country, overnastering in it's majestic beauty. It is likely from the regions around this capital that the d-time Georgians took their inspirations of courage, while the famous, and else where rarely equaled, beauty of Iberia's daughters Is but the reflected splendOr of the wondrous land around.
 "The city Is spread over the floor of a valley, on both sides sides of the river of 9, valley, on Both sides of the river Koor. It is purely a city of the East, the nearestl approach to western life being in the widespread Russian quarter It is the hub of the Russian province of Caucasia; situated almost equally distant from the Caspian and the Black Sea, connected with the lea ding ports of both waters and with the Russian hinteriand by rail; and placed in the center of @ web of mili- tary roads and trails which make the country accessible, 1T is a city of great value to the possesors of Caucasia, both in peace and war. as q commer- cial distributing center and as an ad- Vs need base.
 ''The capital of the Georgians has become the center of Caucasian com merce. The business of Russia, Per sia. Asia Minor and Central Asia with one another was largely done through Thfiis, and this trade more than any thing else builded the city up to Q population of 197,0G0.

 Trade is mostly in the hands of the Armenians. The manufactures Of the place are unimportant. although the natives arc noted for their clever working of metals. Carpets, silks, fine woolenS, silver mounted arms, and metal trinkets are among the simple products. Other articles of Caucasin commerce are the semi tropical and tropical fruits of the country, and the native wines"

FAMOUS TRIALS
TRIAL OF RELKNAP.

Among the impeachment trials that have excited moro than the usual amount of interest in the United States that Of William ". Belknap, next to that of President Andrew Johnson. was the most striking. At the time Bleknap was Secretary of War under President Grant. He had War, and was Grants Secretary of War from 1869 to March :. 1876. Up- on his being charged with political corruption he at once resigned his of fee. He was afterward impeached by the House of Reprssen ntatives before the Senate, on the accusation that he promised to appoint Caleb ?. Marsh to the charge of a trading department at F't.

GETTING AT A SECRET.

Jim Hathaway and 1 were not only chums, but occupied rooms in the same bachelor apartment house. Jim was 8 secretive chap and especially fond of making a mystery of what was an ordinary happening. l poked fun at him for doing so but this seemed to have no effect in stopping him from continually trying to impress me with his ability to do things without my having any knowledge of them. Then when the denouement came he would assume an air of superiority as much as to say, T don't go about blabbing of my affairs
 There came a time when I believed that Jim had an affair on hand with Q. girl. The reason why I came to this conclusion was that he began to show a contempt for women. "The best thing 8 fellow can do with @ gir7,'' he would say, lis to let her alone. By doing so he avoids the expense of the- atre tickets and flowers, only to find out later that she's encouraging some other fellow" I was not interested in Jim's love affairs, but I saw no reason why he should take pains to deceive me in the matter. However, it did not trouble me that he thought proper to considered his idiOsyncrasy of no real importance, not doubting but that had others myself just as absurd.
 Jim and I occupied a common living room, and one evening. when we were about to go out to dinner together Jim picked up an envelope that had been left by the postrnan during the day, unsealed. and took out 6 booklet ad- vertising some kind of goods. mo- ticed him looking at it. or some part of it, with apparent interest; then he tossed 1t in the wastebaszet.

"DEFYING THE NATJoN.Y

Just how much pressure the presi- dent intends to use in pushing along his pet measure, the ship purchase bill now before congress, was indicated in bis speech at Indianapolis. He voiced P his feelings against the opposition which has developed not only against the measure, but against the manner ln which it has been hoped to push it through congress. He even declared it to be against the will of the nation when as Q matter Of fact there is no eNpression of the people upon this matter. It has arisen within the last few months. but if the expression of the voters fin November can be looked upon as the will Of the nation it's significance warrants the opposition.
 That the president is worried over the opposition is shown when he snaps the whip in his declaration that they are defyins the nation, but some of Inc strongest opposition comes from the administration supporters. The New York Post in declaring his re- marks to be utterly unbehtting the issue with which he was dealing. holds that the declaration that they dare defy the nation is "to speak without the warrant or knowledge and to attempt to exercise @ kind of pressure which those gentlemen would be thoroughly justified in resenting.'
 Also the Boston Post feels "co141- pelIed to range itself with those who oppose the bill and it has as yet seen no arguments sufficient to change it's opinion that the plan is fnadvisabIe and would not do what it is intended to do. IL fs not Uncle SaIn's business and he ought to keep out Of it.''
 The proposed legislation is fraught with many dangers and the president may yet ind that the greatest ser vice comes through opposition.

REPLY OF PROGRESS.

From the preliminary reply which has been received at Washington from the government of Great Britain rel atlve to the protest forwarded by Uncle Sam over the interference with neutral commerce and the deternina- lion to seek redress for damages, it Is evident that progress is being made. There is displayed in the answer the same friendly spirit which pervaded the protest. There is recognized the justice of the American appeal and there is manifested the willingness to make good whatever losses are caused where seizures have been justidable.
 Such is good as far as it goes, but Great Britain sets forth its position on national safety and it's protection, by claiming the right to interfere with trade in contraband destined for the enemy.
 While the reply may not clear up the situation it indicates that it is a matter which can be handled dSlo- Enatically, and that is the manner iu which adjustment is desired. At the same time there is no doubt that a large measure of relief rests with the conduct of our trade. If contraband is going to be carried for the enemy it must be realized that such goods are subject to seizure and the overcoming of such annoyances lies in the exclu- sion of contraband, or if it is being transported between neutraIs to make the consignment so definite that the ? responsibility for the traffic does not rest upon this country. The sugges- ton that something can be done here is likely to assist in bringing about Jhe establishment of 9 different situa- tion. It is quite evident that there is a chance for both to do something in the way of relief.

RHEUMA
The Standard Remedy for All Forms of Rheumatism and
 Kidney Troubles.

Are you suffering from some form of rheumatism? Then you need a remedy for that disease only-not a prepara- ton said to cure all the ills of the human body. Rubbing in liniments will only quiet the pain temporarily, but will not remove the cause.
 Rheuma cleanses the kidneys of the poisonous uric acid secretions; opens the clogged veins so that the healthy blood can pass along the dead matter from the entire system; regulates dis ordered bowels, and enables Q sluggish liver to convert thin, impure blood into rich, life giving cOrpuscles. When this is accomplished there is no more rheumatism, for the source of the dis ease will be wiped out.
 Rheuma is free from dangerous drugs. During the treatment the di- gestive organs are not deranged-- Rheuma creates a healthy appetite Get a bottle from Lee & Osgood or any druggist. It is inexpensive. Your money returned if it fails.

PROSPECTS IMPROVING

Better business is one of the things which has long been sought and from the reports and opinions of those who are in touch with the avenues of trade and their outlooEs, the prospects are brightenipg. The country has been setting the benefit of 8 much in creased export trade. The filling of war orders is keeping a great many thousand hands busy in all lines Of work and is tending to make up the deficiency in regular business channels.
 Especially encouraging is the report from the steel corporation to the effect that its thrilled orders for December show an increase of over a half mill lion tons. It is the steel industry which is one of the important reflect ors of national business conditions and to close the year under those condi- Mons gives encouragement to the out

MHO CAN TELL2

\ few of those in a better position than others to know have made pre- dictions as to the probable length of the war. Such is based upon financial conditions and resources, a. knowledge of war, it's demands and consequences. Some of the prophets are bound to lose and 1t is to be hoped for the sake of the suffering and misery it will shut off that it will be those who see notfl- ing but 3, long war.
 The losses among the nations in volved already total a staggering amount Financially, while there has been wiped out a physical force which would nearly duplicate the population of New England. and there have been no decisive battles, except perhaps the crushing of the Turkish invasion of Russia. Millions of men have been thrown into the conflict and great and terrible battles have been fought. but the time has been too short to bring to view any very early prospect of the end.
 An element likely to figure in such an accomplishment, however. is the uneasiness which has been displayed within the past month in Italy, Greece and Runania. While no match for the armies of the Germany-Austria- fur key alliance, they nevertheless possess sufficient strength to become an inn portant factor in dealing with Aus tria and Turkey, the countries with which they are likely to contend
 They have not as yet cast their lot with the allies but they are wavering and when the step in taken, small though their war strength may be con- sidered they are inclined to act in a way which would hasten the signing of peace. But who can tell when?

FAIRNESS IN REGULATION.

Striking an even balance when 1t comes to regulation has always been a difficult undertaking. Still the reg ulator is necessary and until it does it's work right it must get the proper amount of attention.
 For q long time the government has been endeavoring to regulate the rail- roads of the country for the pur~ose of placing these great transportation systems in the proper relation to the people. It is no easy task but when Chairman Elliott of the New Haven system declares in a Boston address that the government has dealt abso- Iutely unjust with the railroads and that it's present method of paying the railroads for the carrying of the mails since the institution of the parcel post has deprived the New Haven of at least S1.000,00G that it has earned for such work. there are reasons to believe that there are facts to back up such a declaration.
 It gets an immediate endorsement from former President Taft who de- clares that the pendulum has swung too far in the work of regulation. First the railroads went too far in their defiance of authority and now in the endeavor to get back to justice the action against the roads goes too far. It is possible to do injustice to one as well as to the ether, but it doesn't indicate permanent progress to swing from one extreme to the other. Such simply means a continuation of in justice whereas it is justice not to one, but to all which is desired. Still the following of one extreme after the other may have it's value. It will if it results in striking the middIeground and holding to the policy Of fairness to all.

Washington. Jan. 1.-The federal reserve board has almost completed it's revision Of the regulations de- signed to bring in all possible inform ation concerning borrowers whose commercial papeer comes up for rs- discout to a federal reserve bank
 The first regulations were sweeping in character and were suspended shortly after they were promulgated. The board is still of the opinion that detai ed information should be gained to show the standing of borrowers, so that a central credit bureau may be established in Washington with com plete data for all parts of the coun- try This will be done, however, with as little incorvience as possible to banks and borrowers.

the first increase to be noted since last summer.
 While the steel trade may be feel ing the effects of foreign business it is also evident that it is experiencing the effects of the relief which was ex- tended to the railroads by the in crease in rates. That removed the strained economical policy under which they were forced to operate. It caused @ relief to the borrowing power and permitted the issuing of orders for cars rails and other equipment which previous conditions did not warrant.
 The indications of a change in con- ditions are welcome and it is to be hoped that they are only the forerun- ners of a. steadily improving situa- tion. Tine country needs it.
