a poet has the advantage over men
Of ordinary mold in that the blow that
deals him is Intellectual. James Whit
comb Riley, having released that
weary mortal part which for years
has troubled him, has emerged, let
us hope, into greater freedom and de-
light than he has hitherto known, For
use, beyond all cayi, he is as vital
now as when thirty-hye years ago he
was pouring out his songs with the
cagerness of a meadow lark at dawn.
Concerning those songs much will
be written-much has been written.
Never did there live a man to whom
it was easier or a more genuine pleas
ure to pay tribute, and the reason Is
this He incorporated in lovely verse
the peculiar awarencss of life and
love for locality and neighbors which
is the Americans best possession.
Those qualities of dcarness. Of es-
sential familiarity which render life
desirable. and which have been easy
for men in older lands TO come by,
have been more difficult of attainment
in this land of our, this America, still
new and settled by men who are al
lens to each other. 1t is easy for the
Englishmcn to find delight in England,
sanCtifcd to him by countless genera
tons Of his forefathers. The road
before his door is historic because Of
the men who have passed over it; the

treasure memories, each of them,
which could only with difficulty be
made to seem precious to their list
cners. America for them is conven-
lent, full of opportunity, place where
democracy, not tradition, may domi-
nate. Yet, they are lonely, The
scenes about them are not haIlowed
and they must continually take cour-
age to their hearts to enable them TO
live happily in a land which, belong
ing to all men, is the treasured in
heritance of none.
James Whitcomb Riley might have
been, had he chosen, a poet of opu-
lent verse, a lesser Swineburne, let
us say. But he was true to the guild
ing of his genius, He preferred to
look at the world through the eyes Of
a Hooser lad, and his verse was like
the dancing heart of that lad his eyes
stretched wide with love and wonder
as he beheld the cnchantment OF com
mon life, the sunshine an the shadder
down along the river, the night when
the moody cricket falters in its cry,
the stepmother purt night good as
mother was, the boy who lives out on
our farm and knows marvellous things,
the tears, the songs, the escrets Of
simple hearts. Riley made Indiana
dear as other great writers have made
Greece and Italy, France and Russia,
Poland and Norway dear AS the"
did it by the exercise of genius that
was indigenous and characteristic, so
did he, and by the very intensity %
its local significance he gave it uni
versatility. 1t is @ paradox, but it is
true.
Now that he has set sail TO the dim
harbor of another day" we send our
thanks after him, praying they may
oyertakc him on the way.

Present Outlook for Russia is
in Striking Contrast to That
of Last August.

PETROGRAD, July 29.-The begin
ming Of the third year of the war finds
Russia on the offensive along large
part of her western front In the eau
casus Russian forces are pushing for
ward well beyond ErZerum and south
ward toward the Mesopotamian border.
Her armies have been reorganiZed and
strengthened and the shortage Of am
munition, which was responsible for
one Of the most spectacular and at the
same time one Of the most successful
ly conducted retreats in history, has
been remcdied Today she has shells,
cannon and small arms in abundance.
Her munition factories have been i'm
proved and enlarged and are putting
out large quantities of war materials
in addition to the enormous shipments
arriving from abroad The personnel
of the troops is as high, if not higher,
than it was a year ago. The present
financial needs have been adjusted
through loans placed in England,
France and America
Striking Contrast.
The outlook today presents a strik-
ing contrast 10 that Of last August
which saw the fall of Warsaw and the
continuation Of the retirement of the
Russian armies, with the Germans and
Austrians, buoyed up with a long sue
cession Of victories, still tiercely en-
gaging in rear guard attacks. The
turning point came early in the fall,
On September 0 the Russians stopped
the Austrlans at Tarnopol. The Ger
man wave Of invasion continued to
roll onward but in the latter days Of
September It had spent its force. The
Russian armies turned upon the en-
envy along the line Of the Dwina, Berc-
zina, shara, Styr and Sereth rivers
and checked them there. Desperate
repeated efforts of the Germans to cap
ture Riga and Dvinsk, in which they
hoped to establish winter bases, failed,
They attacked again and again
throughout the winter but the Russian
! line held--and still holds.
Emperor Nicholas took personal
command of the armies early in Sep

Many Of Them Come to West
Virginia to Wor k in the
Coal Fields.
BY HENRY NJ. HYDE.
In the Chicngo Tribune.
1onp row Of the little one-story

A long row of the little one-story
wooden shacks winds round the SIDE
Of a mountain in West Virginia. JUST
below the center of the row Is inc
opening OF a great coal nine "hich
leads on a horizontal plane into the
bowels of the peak.
Before the war in Europe every
shack was occupied by Italian and
Serbian miners. Nose of them lived
in boarding houses, but some had
brought overtheir families and lived
with wife and children in one OF the
smaller shacks.
Today most Of the shacks are va
cant. Practically all of the miners
hayegone back to Europe to fight,
The last report of the national bureau
of immigration shows that the number
of Italians in the United States now
is 100000 less than it was two years
ago.
Money Lures Negro.
Their places in the coal mines have
been taken chiefly by negroes from
the farms OF virginia anu OlucI SuUlH-
ern states. When a black farm hand
earning 81 or SIPS a day at home is
offered from 50 to 81 day to work
in a coal mine the call is almost IT.
resistible.
To this single coal mine in West
Virginia more than 400 negroes have
gone in the last eighteen months. They
are beginning TO take their families
with them and to settle in the old
wooden shacks deserted by the for
eigners.
Much the same change has come TO
other mines. construction camps and
even factories, all over the north. BY
tens Of thousands the negroes have
left the farms Of the south and have
gone north to take the place Of Eu-

In his protest Hageman said life

In her suit for separation, Mrs.

absented himself from her and that
he has been too friendly for her lik-

Push Enemy Back.
General Brussllofs advance reach
ed its point of deepest penetration in
Bukowina, where it pushed the enc
my back sixty-fve miles and gained
an average Of twenty-five miles along
a total front of 275 miles from the
Kovel-Sarney railway to Rumania.
The Russian commander cut the forces

General Brussiloff's stupendous bag
of prisoners, according to the latest
estimates, numbers 100000 officers

creased by thousands and tens OF
thousands from week to week. 1t IS
declared that probably an equal num-
her have been put out of action,
counting the dead and wounded. HIS
booty in guns and equipment runs In
to extravagant figures
Prospects point to average crop
conditions. The shortage of Held
hands and consequent cultailment oil
cultivation have been partially over
come by the employment OF prisoners
of war, The high prices OF food are
due as much to difficulties in trans
portation as to shortage Of provls-
ions The scarcity Of meat for civil
ian consumption is due to the TACT
that the soldiers, who before enlist
ment were small consumers, are now
receiving daily rations of meat. Con-
siderable benefit is accruing the Rus
slams from the captured fields where
they are protiting from the thrift OF
the Galicians. One Of the first requi.
sitions made by General Brussiloh
was for hands to harvest the aoun-
