with the falsehood that the President

responsible for it as he is for the
deplorable conditions in Europe.
Nearly six years age Mexico over

The United States had no duty OF
right to march an army into Mexico
and set up a Government there. We
have had disorders in our own coun-
try and We should have been furious
at any foreign Power that presumed
to invade US for the suppression OF
disorder. But when the Mexicans be-
gan a series of forays across the
order which the de facto Govern
ment could rot, or would not, pre-
vent, there was nothing left for US

auders and to keep them in Mexico

MINIMIZING BRUSILOFF
(Richmond Journal)

Berlin continues to sheer at the
Russian advance into Volhynia and
G;alicia, but with Czernowitz again in
the hands of the Cars troops and
Lemberg now their immediate obJec-
tive, it is a waste of effort to bellt-
tie the progress of the impetuous
Brusiloff. The career of the dash
ng cavalry leader has been most
spectacular in what has been accom-
plished, yet in no sense is the brilliant
Russian general inclined to theatrlcl-
SIN. His official dispatches to Pet
rocrad are models of military brevity.
He telegraphs: "The town of Ger
nowitz was occupied after desperate
fighting for the passages of the river.
In the capture of the bridgehead we
took more than one thousand prl-
soncrs. Guns also were captured IN
Czernowitz. F." But not many military
prisoners. The gallant stand made by
the Austrians at the bridgehead was
to permit the evacuation of the town
and safe retreat of the section of the
Austrian army then occupying it.
General Brusiloff must have fretted
at the delay wrought by the bridge
defenders, for his aim throughout
has been to reduce the opposing army
rather than to acquire territory or
cities. Of course, his forward move
ment has not been an uninterrupted
success. In the region between Lutsk
and Kovel, reports the German war
office, a severe counter blow was dealt
the Russians, who lost upward of 81
500 soldiers. dozen officers, several
pieces of cannon and ten machine
guns. A notable setback, if considered
alone, but how puny in, the face OF
100000 soldiers and enormous guam
titles of war material captured by
Brusilof's forces. If Lemberg falls
which is likely to follow speedily, j
not already accomplished, the mora
effect on the Austro-Hungary army
and people can hardly be overrated
Already, the hyphenated countries
have sickencd of war and would only
too willingly quit if Germany would
permit. Apparently their cry for helI
has resulted in a. recent transfer Of
German troops to the Volhynia front
but if so it is at the expense of the
attack forces before Verdun
1t is significant that call to thu
colors has been issued in Germany fol
all seventeen year old boks, the ear
hest age at which military service
begins. The effort to maintain TIT
German war complement is at tn
| gasping point.

WILSON

We are relieved by the assurance CT
some newspapers that have been de-
rouncing the President for everything
he has done, and has not done that
they are gong to support wilson.
The Philadelphia Record voices the
opinion of virtually all democratic
papers when it says we should not
have supposed it necessary to say
this. We had supposed that when the
country was facing war with Mexico
because that country will not suppress
its own bandits, who have repeatedly
invaded the United States, and or,
ders our punitive expedition out Of
Mexico, all Americans would heart
nv support the Government Of the
United States without saying any
thing about it.
Some of them, however, feel 1t
worth while to assure their country
that they are not going to support
Carranza, just as a few days ago they
we're telling the public that they
would not support Mr.. Wilson in TIT
Presidential contest. Well, they. pro
baby know eSps how u much their Gown pat
riotism needs to. be certified to.
F! But one of these papers is unable

nation without beginning its articl'

that Admiral Won Roster repeatedly
has declared within the last few days
that the German submarine war on
merchant vessels is about to be re-

and that this is connected with affairs
in Mexico, where Germany has found
