France and England

That the prestige of France is growing and that she will be pre-eminent in Europe after the war is the contention of writer in Current History In support of this argument cited the accomplish ments of the French military forces compared with those of the British forces It must be admitted that here strong case is made out
 The British have been credited with winning the battles of Ypres but official figures show that the French losses were far larger than the British Inference drawn from various reports indicate that the French vigorously carried their part of the allies great offensive of September D and that the movement checked because of the failure to ad- vance, Of the allies left wing which part of the line was held by British troops
 The Dardaneles campaign was launched partly to draw Turkish troops from Egypt and vicinity of the suez canal; and much the fighting in Ciallipoli done by the French under General T Amade The German thrust in Serbia is believed British possessions; yet it was the French who fighting with the serbians in their hour of need: and Serbia might have been saved if the British had been prompt.
 While the record promises to give France an au- thoritative voice in peace negotiations one thing should be kept in mind-the is not yet won. If the allies win it the victory will in all proba- bility through the large armies that England may vet be able to throw into the field If England should strike the. deciding blow on land that crcum stance would nearly if quite place her on even terms with France far military honors go AS the British fleet has far done invaluable ser vice in keeping the open the allies and closed against the enemy, it is unlikely should the al- lies be victorious, that England will emerge from the contest with the lions share of the glory.

Arizona in Flood

reader of the Republican brings to this office the following from the Indianapolis Journal asks us what we have to say in defense:
 The writers of school geographies, the com pliers of weather statistics and the tourists seem to have made a mistake Arizona is not the dry, thirs- ty country they have described it. It is a land of cactus, alka mesas and long distances between waterhoies as people have been jed to believe from the stories of the cattIemen and the prospectors
 -"The news of the last few days gives one an altogether different picture of Arizona Instead hankering for water the state appears to have toe blessed much of it. Instead of a shining heaven broken by clouds, the country is cursed with storms. wet down by whipping rains. The water melted. The timbered houses go floating away on the tide. The inhabitants flee to the high hills and like our flood sufferers of the Ohio valley bleat loudly for federal relief appropriation
 -Arzona, when it gets the mud off it's feet will probably say that nothing of the ever happened before, and will probably never happen again. But We don't know. The southwestern climate is com mercialized Natives cannot be expected 70 be very frank and honest about it. If the floods come again next year. they will make a point of swearing sol emnv shat they Arizonas first experiences of the kind"
 There are some misstatements of fact here: or rather the description of the devastation leads one to believe that t was general throughout the state

In almost every article written by Colonel Roosevelt and in every speech delivered by him on the subject of the national defense he couples with it the need of industrial efficiency and the essential the former. He makes frequent allusion to the efficiency in peace of the Germans whom he condemns at the time for permitting militarism to become overgrown This view is also taken by many other advocates Of preparedness.
 We have just come across an article by Thomas Speed Mosby, a pu3icist of Jefferson City, Mo. dealing with the matter of industrial efficiency which in this article least he places above mil itary efficnecy and would all of us if compelled to choose between the if they inconsistent with each other but they not.
