Cars Visit to the Front.

During the Russian Cars recent
visit to the front near Minsk, the
soldiers generally refused to believe
that their visitor was really the EN-
peror, for he wore only a private SOL
diers overcoat, without decorations of
any sort, and the only precautions
taken were those usually taken by a
staff or inspection officer when his
work takes him to the trenches. A
correspondent of the Exchange Tele-
graph Company writes from Minsk:
"On one occasion the Emperor went
into the advanced trenches at a time
when a considerable infantry fire was
going on. He seemed to enjoy the
sensation of being under fire.
His Majesty spoke to a veteran
from the Oral provinces and asked
him how many fights he had seen.
Seven, was the answer. The SOL
der had fought at Port Arthur and In
the present war took part in the bat
ties of Lodz and Gorlice.
How many children have your
asked the Emperor.
Seven. captain, said the soldier,
still refusing to believe that it was
the Emperor.
"'And how many wounds?
"iSeven, also
Then you shall have seven heads"
said the visitor.
This was a reference to an old
Russian proverb which says that a
sergeant has seven heads. 1t meant
that the soldier was promoted by i'm
perial fiat to the rank Of sergeant"

THE WAR PRIMER
BY National Geographic Society

Montenegro, upon whose conquest
and subjugation the Austrians are
said to have determined, is distin-
guished in history as the constant,
irrepressible, fanatic, midget foe of
the Turkish Empire" begins a state
ment last issued by the National Geo
graphic Society, which reviews the
tulmutuous history of the Black Noun
tain people. who. today defying
greater powers than the Turk, are fac
ing the menace of national extinction
and oblivion. The primer continues:
The MontenegrinS, as a people,
were born of the fierce struggles that
kans. In the Middle Ages, Montene-
gro belong to the Servian kingdom.
Over the battlefield of Kossovo (1389)
the Servian state was swept away.
The Prince-ruler of Montenegro. of
royal Servian blood, gathered his
mountaineers about him, together with
the remnants of the folk who fed
from the plains, and began the CEN
turtles long, deadly drama of the
Turkish Montenegrin feud. one of the
longest, most bitter and relentless
feuds of history.
Wave after wave of Ottoman in
vasion dashed it's force in vain against
the inaccessible Black Mountain
country, and. between the times of
Turkish efforts at conquest, upon the

Montenegrins sought the Turk in his
own country, carrying death and des-
truction to the plains. By 1485, the
Montenegrins found themselves shut
fast within their mountains. Their
last secular prince gave up his office
in 1916, leaving the country under the
leadership of it's bishop.
THE Porte continued to claim the
land, and, after generations of loss
and endeavor, conquered it temper
arily in 1714. The Turks had no soon

ditions being an annual subsidy from

have never let an opportunity go by
when they could, with decency get in

ATTACKING AMERICAN SHIPS.

With one American tanker fired
upon and another reported sunk by a
submarine in the Mediterranean it is
quite natural that this country should
be considerably interested, but as has
been characteristic of the submarine
operations in that locality a number Of
the important details in connection
with the cases have not been disclosed.
Thus it remains to be seen just what
the circumstances were and whether
the commanders of the American ships
were in any way responsible for their
trouble.
There are features in connection
with the Petrolite, which indicate that
it managed to escape from the sub
marine, which endeavored to halt 1t
and in so doing the shot was fired
which caused the injury to the mem
Der of the crew. That being the case
and the captain at fault for not re-
specting the warning the responsible
ity rests upon that official, and if sim
liar conditions prevailed in the case
of the Communipaw, though it was not
fortunate enough to escape, blame cam
not be attached to the submarine
which, under those circumstances, only
did what it had a right to do.
A cargo of contraband in the case
Of the latter may be the explanation,
but that does not exist with the for
mer, for that was bound westward,
and even though they were carrying
contraband that does not give any of
the belligerents the right to take Amer
lean lives. If, however, the captains
took risks after receiving warnings
under the idea that by so doing they
could get away it takes on a different
aspect. Thus at the present time what
is most needed for the clearing UP OF
the situation are the clear, unaduI-
terated facts

TESTING DRUG LAW.

AS much if not greater interest at
taches to the test case before the
United States supreme court concern
ing the Harrison drug act passed by
congress in 1914 as surrounded the
advocacy Of the measure previous to
its adoption. The appeal goes to the
highest court in the land on the ground
that the government authorities in en-
forcing it maintain that it's provisions
intend that it shall be unlawful for
any person not registered 10 have
opium in his possession.
The law was passed for the pur-
pose of knocking out the great amount
of illegal traffic that was being car
ried on in narcotic drugs throughout
the country. Conditions had gotten
to the point where it was necessary
for something to be done and the eff
feet of the legislation has been all
that was anticipated of it. Not only
has the dope trade come under strict
regulations, but thereby a serious blow
has been dealt those traders who have
been making a rich living through the
decentralization of humanity.
Those who are trying to circunnvent
the law, which is a most valuable
piece of legislation, maintain that the
law concerned simply drug dealers and
not the consumers, or in other words
it is held that while it was made un-
lawful for druggists and physicians to
have more than a certain amount of
drugs in their possession and then
only by being registered, it does not
prevent those who use the drugs them
selves from such possession. If such
position is upheld by the supreme
court in its Interpretation of the law
it means that opium traffic is to be di-
verified from reputable dealers, who are
held to a strict respect for the law,
to an Infamous class who for gain are
willing to pander to one of the most
lamentable and miserable weaknesses
of human nature, and calls for fur
Their legislation to cover this point.

Rumania's Attitude.

One of the last issues of the Balkan

man, I'VE are bound to tell you
frankly that we are too weak to defend
you. 1 can we'll understand that you
in Serbia are surprised at Rumania's
inactivity in the face of Bulgaria's
attack on you. But our attitude is
dictated by the circumstances which
we have to face. If it were a matter
of a conflict between Bulgaria and
Serbia we should not hesitate to take
up arms on your side. as. indeed. we
did in 1913. Unhappily. this Is not a
question of participating in the ter
rife struggle between the Germanic
Powers and the Quadrup1e Entente
Serbia has not been attacked by Bull
garin, but by Germany, with Bulgaria
as a subordinate ally.
None but the Great Powers of the
Quadruple Entente can face Germany

intervention in the Balkan
Peninsula of England and her Allies !?
Nobody can answer this question. We
all know what Germany wants, and
what Germany will do: But does any
one know what the Quadruple En-
tente will do? You know very well
that the Quadruple Entente is not
harmonious whole. The agreement of

stituents not to conclude a separate

America for Study of Future.

Etienne CIementel, Minister of
Commerce has received favOTably
suggestion made by Jules Bots that
the French government should create
a fund for sending young men to
America TO study the future" there
as now young men are sent by the
government to Rome and to Athens to
study the past" NJ. Bots said to the
minister that America could teach
France so much concerning organiza-
ton and methods of doing with eX-
IRENE efficiency everything connected
with practical life, as the memorials
of Rome and Athens taught French
men beautiful things of ancient life.
Europe could see in America the
germs of the future, and young Euro
peans ought to go there for inspec-
ton. NJ. C1ementel has considered
the idea and will recommend it to the
Chambers of Commerce which he
thinks ought to be more directly to be
concerned than the government. NJ. Bots
says that those Frenchmen who have
visited America have obtained there
a largenesS of view which they did
not have before and that he believes
one effect of the war will be to cause
Europeans. and especially Frenchmen
to visit the United States.

a common and unified policy in con-
Quoting the war. In this respect each
of the four powers (EnglaDd, France
Russia, and italy, has retained it's
own freedom Of action. The result is
that in every new situation
the Quadruple Entente is obliged to
confer as to what policy shall be
adopted. and such negotiations, even
though they produce perfect accord,
inevitably mean delay.
You will surely understand that in
these circumstances every neutral
country, and particularly Rumania
position) must take care not to incur
the hostility of Germany in return for
the empty friendship of the Quad
ripple Entente.
This is the secret of Rumania's
attitude, and probably of that of
Greece. You and others tell US that
the final victory of the Quadruple
Entente is certain. We do not doubt
it, but it must be admitted that this
victory is likely to be long delayed.
The English, on their island, can af-
ford to wait for victory: but Rumania
cannot afford to incur the hostility of
Germany and Austria while waiting
for the end of the war, for in the in
terveniEg period she might easily suf-
fer the fate of Belgium and share the
destruction melted out to Serbia. You
Serbians may say that this is a self
ish policy. / assure you ii is merely
a policy of preservation. You
cannot reasonably demand that we
should expose our country to the ter
rible danger of making a merciless
enemy without possessing a guarantee
that his opponents will support u.s."

NEED LIGHT ON PHILIPPINES.

If it accomplishes no other result
the discussion over the Philippines
which has been carried on by former
President Taft and Secretary Garrison
is bound to create a greater interest
in the question than as if 1t had not
taken place. Legislation over the Phil
ippines is going to have a prominent
place before congress at thi~ session
and it is highly important that there
should be as full a knowledge of the
conditions which are prevailing in the
islands under the present administra-
ton as possible, inasmuch as it is an
extension of such policies as are al
ready in force there which is proposed
under the legislation known as the
Jones bill.
When Mr.. Taft points out instance
after instance where the non-partisan
rule of the island which was carried
on under three presidents has been
turned into partisan rule and office
holders who were fully in touch with
the conditions there and thus best
suited to carry them on, were turned
out to make a place for others, and,
as one authority claims the islands are
in danger of being Tammanyized, it
must be apparent to those in congress
who are looking for the facts upon
which to base their decision upon the
Jones bill that there is good reason for
looking thoroughly into all steps which
are taken relative to new legislation
in behalf of the Filipinos.
1t is the best possible conditions
that this country desires in the is
lands and those are not going to be
assured by the esta blishment of new
policies and the routing of office-hold-
ers every time an administration
changes. The islands should be go -
erned under a fixed policy with such
changes as times, generally improved
conditions and sound judgment require,
but they ought not to be exploited
for political purposes. Therefore the
more light that can be shed upon the
conditions in the islands the better
