THE INTERNATIONAL MIND.

One of our American college presi-
dents has been felicitating his fellow
countrymen on the development of an
international mind" It's useful
phrase. And it represents one of the
most interesting and valuable effects
of present world conditions on Ameri-
can life.
We have always been known as an
insular nation. We have admitted the
accusation, and have defied the accus-
ers by taking a stubborn pride in our
insularity. Up to the Spanish-Ameri-
can war most of us were perfectly con-
tent Just to be Americans and Ignore
the rest of civilization. That war
shook us out of our shells; but we rec
ognized the outer world only to pity
its darkness and backwardness In COM
parison with our own light and prog
ress.
The present European war has
brought tremendous awakening. 1t
has made our nation really conscious,
for the first time, of great world-pro-
cesses at. work, of which we are but a
part. 1t has aroused in us an interest
in all things foreign. 1t has given to
geography new value. 1t has made
history alive. 1t has opened our eyes
to international politics and interna-
tional law. 1t has shown US the
strength and weakness of other pow
ers, and taught US to measure our
selves with them, not blindly as we
used to, but with intelligent judg-
ment.
The results are wholesome. For one
thing, the intellectual outlook of the
average American has so broadenec
that he can think now not as provln'
cial but. as a citizen of the world. Fo'
another thing it has stopped the idle
boasting which in the past has done
so much to prejudice other nations
against US. At the same time that wal
has revealed to US our peculiar adj
vantages of moral and materla
strength it has also revealed our weak
nesses. And we owe debt of graft
tude to the Old World for giving us
chastened spirit and leading US tt
set our own house in order before try
ing to correct the rest of the void.

TAXES AND DEBTS.

Our taxes are high and our public
debts are increasing in way that
sometimes seems alarming. The ma
tional debt isn't much, but taking to-
gether the national, state and munich
pal obligations, the public Indebtedness
of the American people amounts to
$50 per capita, or about $3.50 per
family.
! 1t would be a painful thing if we
had to pay that all at once. 1t is pain
full even to reflect that we have to pay
in addition to current taxes, the inter

cent amounts to about enodga - buy

owes S340 per capita, about $1,360 per
family for the small French family of
four persons. Germany, starting With
a public debt of SIS apiece for her
population, has run it up in tHo years
to S275 apiece, which means probably
a bigger obligation per family than
that of France, since German fauiiies
are much larger. Great Britain, be-
fore the war, owed $50 per capits..
Now she owes nearly $3.50, or $1,000
per family. Other belligerent coun-
tries, with the exception of Russia, are
in about the same plight They have
these appalling obligations piling up
for the future as mortgages that must
look everlasting. And meanwhile their

SHORT CROPS ARE
NOW PREDICTED

Washington, Aug. Sailing off
in crop prospects, amounting to many
millions of dollars loss to the farm
ers, was indicated today in the depart
ment of agriculture's August report,
which forecast a decline in almost
every important crop from the fore
cast of July. Wheat showed loss of
105 100000 bushels, corn, 89,000,000
bushels and OATS 100000 bushels.
A heavy reduction in the indicated
production of cotton previously had
been reported.
Corn, the nations greatest crop, is
in serious condition from drouth, and
unless there is rain the yield will be
much smaller than that indicated,
which was 2,777,000,000 bushels.

NO MORE GERMAN PLOTS"

The only element of satisfaction IN
the disastrous Jersey City munitions
explosion is to be found in the fact
that hardly anybody seems disposed
to attribute it to German plotters. .
If that explosion had occurred last
year, there would instantly have been
clamor against COMMUNICATIONS
and demand for vengeance.
The difference shows the change
that has come in the attitude of the
American public in the last twelve
months. And that change is the nat
ural result of modification of the
German propaganda, and the abandon
ment of violence on the part of either
German representatives or German
sympathizers.
There is no question that many of
the munition fires and explosions of
1915 were due to premeditated crime
in the supposed interest of Germany.
For those crimes various misguided

itentiary, and others are awaiting
trial AS a result of the vigorous
measures adopted by city, state and
national authorities, backed by al
most universal condemnation of such
crimes, the offenders were driven to
the conviction that violent methods
were of no avail. Thus the European
war is no longer waged on American
soil, public suspicious have been allay-
ed, and the real voice of Germany has
a chance to be heard.

Border Duty Seems Probable.

The Wisconsin soldiers are interest
ed in new reports that are in circula-
ton regarding the probability that they
will be sent to the border for active
patrol duty Immediately after their re-
turn from Leon Springs to Camp Will
son at San Antonio. While no Off
cial announcement has been made of
such plans, the regular army officers
with the Badgers express the opinion
that this is to be the program. Ex-
perienced officers declare that the Wis
consin and Illinois troops will be need
ed to relieve the men now on border
duty.
"No organization can stay in the
same place any long period of time
without suffering decentralization" de-
clared an officer 'By this l refer to
a lessening Of discipline and general
efficiency. They must be kept busy,
on the go in some manner or other"

WHY CHILDREN RUN AWAY
Not Mere Naughtiness That Starts
Riddles on the Road to Ad-
venture Land.

When little Willie runs away to
ride the brake beams, to become a
hunter Of the wild Apache, or mayhap
a Jesse James; when curly-headed
Mary tOddles far from home with her
dollie, the mother usually attributes
their truancy to 'mere naughtiness'
or bad companions, or maybe original
sin.
But the children's motive, accord
ing to investigators, is the same as
that which makes their parents visit
Europe or their uncle John start OFF
on hunting trip. The causes
ascribed for these various actions are
usually quite different from the real
cause, which is the primitive racial in
stinct to wander-an instinct SO deep
seated that it is found in lower ami
mails as we'll as in man.
We all have it, presumably, but
some of us are more enmeshed by con-
ventionalities and the habits of civ
ilized society that we never really re-
spond to the Turing call of the wild
or the blind impulses to start off some
where-no matter where. Others are
so attuned to this instinct that only
lock and key can keep them in one
place.

Divisional Maneuvers Planned.

Badger troops may take part in big
divisional maneuver next month, 1t is
now believed. 1t is thought that this
certainly will be the program if the
Badger soldiers are not sent to the
border for actual patrol duty. There
is q belief among the officers that the
Wisconsin brigade will either be sent
to the border or will go home some
time next month. 1t is believed that If
they are sent home the divisional
maneuver will take place before they
leave for the North. If this is held a
division of infantry, consisting of three
brigades of three regiments each, aug
mented by artillery, cavalry, engineers,
signal corps and field hospitals will, It
is believed, march so miles to Austin,
Tex, the march being made in about
five days. officers believe Major Gen
eral Plummer will be in command.
This big maneuver would be regard
ed as a fitting climax to the training
which the state troops have received.
There is q feeling among the officers
and men that one great object of the
mobilization of the guard on the Dor
der has already been accomplished.
That is the training and equipping
of the National Guardsmen. The ex-
perience they have had will prove in
valuable should they ever be called
out again, for they will be able to
adapt themselves to campaign cOndi-
lions in a short time and in a military
manner. They now know what they
must do and how it must be done,
which was not the case with the ma
jority when the mobilization came. Ev-
cry soldier is now equipped, not only
with perfect arms, but with winter
and summer clothing and ali other
equipment. Furthermore, each regi-
ment is supplied with horses and
mules and the men have learned how
to break them and handle them when
they are broken. This alone will mean
q big saving of time should the men
be called out again.

To PIACE BADGERS
IN NEW DIVISION
War Department Plans Move in
Building Up Army.
WILL JOIN ILLINOIS TROOPS
Wisconsin Brigade of Infantry, To-
oether With All Auxiliary
Troops, to Become Part of
Proposed Unit.

San Antonio, Textile Wisconsin
brigade, upon it's return from Leon
Springs, where it spent ten days on
the big government rifle range, looked
forward to the organization of new
division of state troops, as the next
move in the work of fashioning real
army out Of the state soldiers that are
assembled at San Antonio.
The new division, it has been an
nounced, will include the three Wis
consin regiments and the two brigades
of Illinois infantry, together with the
auxiliary troops Of both states.
Brig Gen. Henry A. Greene, who
has been in command of the troops at
Eagle Pass, will take charge of the
new division. Capt. Oliver Edwards
Of the general staff corps has been de-
tailed to the division as chief of staff.
1t is said that the program of the
war department calls for the organiza-
ton Of all the militia on the border
into ten divisions, of which the Wis
consin and Illinois troops will consti-
tute the third.

Troops Burn Much Powder.

lTCOPS DUIFI MUCH FOWQGTs
The troops used large amount Of
Uncle Sans powder while on the rife
range. During the first few days the
men were on the range they consumed
on an average $4,000 pounds of ammu-
milton each day.
From morning until night some OF
the soldiers were pouring bullets into
the hills every minute of the time.
The men were not all on the range at
one time, however. While one reg1-
ment was engaged in target practice
the others spent their time in work
ing out various military problems I'M
der the direction of Brigadier General
Richardson, commander of the brigade.
The sun grew almost unbearably hot
soon after the Badger soldiers reached
Leon Springs and the men found it no
easy task to sleep in their little pup"
tents with nothing but straw sacks
between them and the hot rocks on
which the tents had been pitched.

Guard Healthier Than Regulars.

Reports issued here show that in
spite of the supposed lack of training
of the National Guard the health OF
the 98,5OO men on the border showed
a better record than the men in the
regular army during the week ending
August 5. During the week the per-
centage of sick in the guard was lit
tie over 1 per cent and there were no
deaths recorded. In the regular army
the sick rate was over 2 per cent.
There were six deaths during the
week.
