GREAT RUSSIA

Never in history has a nationalis-
tic drama been more successfully d.
rected than the Russian revolution.
Food riots gave the cue Exit au-
tOcracy-enter constitutionalism. And
now the question is-not content with
entering, will it remain?
Specifically the revolution has
seemed'a sudden and shattering up
heaval of the ancient regime. But
there are evidences that it was an
ticipated in Europe and practically
decided in Russia. For a long time.
Russia has been, as one of its own
critics says, "a country in danger"
The tides of discomfort have been
rising steadily ever since the Japa-
nese war.
In 1914 strike was on in Petro-
grad which seemed about to end the
dynasty. This forced the hand of a
pro-German government, and the
strikers were DETECTED into the war.
Since then, under cover of a tempo
rary popularity, the court clique and
the Germanophile agents have worked
constantly to incapacitate the army
and force Russia into a separate
peace.
After Sturmer's disgrace and re-
tirement, matters were made no bet
ter by the appointment to the cabinet
of bureaucrats of the old school, such
as Protopopov, Provski and Golitzyn.

the Imperial Council impossible, be- |

FANNING THE SPARKS

The United States is still at peace
with Germany, although relations are
strained, and if there is one thing
people of both countries should re-
member, it is that the most news
if it may be called that-passes
through the hands of that fanciful
person. the British censor. Ever
since the diplomatic break came, the
German papers have been full Of
via London" dispatches telling of
feverish preparations and ship seiz-
ures in this country. Likewise. news
of Germany's acts on the seas has
been distorted in London.
The American ship, the Housaton-
ic, was sunk without warning, Lon
don first reported; but it wasn't.
London said George Washington. the
NcSIo WIN lOSt uiS lie Wucu lHc u
rina was sunk, was an American; but
he was a Briton. England has its
Reuters Agency, which sends out for
news anything that will boost the
Allies cause, while Germany has the
Overseas Agency to champion its
cause officially.
1t is foolish to say that the Allies
do not want the help of the United
States in the war. and the apparent
misunderstanding in Germany of the
attitude of the American nation can
be charged in large measure 10 the
British distortion of news, although
this does not justify the recent Teu-
ton acts. President Wilson has set
a fine example by refusing to get ex-
cited at first reports. Both sides
have been sending sparks to America,
which they hope will be famed into
flames by publicity. The American
people should use cold water.

THE NEW WARFARE

With every great conflict of the las
century has come a change in The
| mode of warfare. The war itsel
brings out more deadly machines fol
destroying human lives and property
and after the war the great military
machines must be changed. The in.
PRODUCTION of ironclads in the Civil
War completely changed the navies
of the world, and the use of trenches
during the Spanish-American War al
so affected the present system of fight
ing.
In no other war of the worlds his
tory have more marked changes been
made in the art and science Of war
fare than in the present conflict. The
whole system is basically different
from what it was in the summer of
1914. Not only have hitherto unknown
devices been introduced, but machines
OF centuries ago have been set to new
uses.
The United States must soon change
its method of training for war. If this
country is drawn into the struggle, it
will need great leader to change it
completely to the new mode. If neu-
trality is preserved. our fighting forces
should be made as efficient as possible.
Will Irwin, reporter for the Saturday
Evening Post. in recent article
shows the many deficiencies in the
training of our fighters by contrasting
European warfare with our system, al
though peace will not develop the
fighting machines that war does. Lord
estimates that $4,000 Amer
leans are fighting with the Entente,
and Mr.. Irwin wants to put these men
in charge Of our military training
system after the war.
Whether this plan is practical or
not. in view of the fact that the State
Department has ruled that those who |
'orswear their allegiance to enter a |
'oreign army are not American citi-
'ens. European war methods must be
'dopted in training our army. Amer
can inventive genius has a high place
n the world, and, with a man like
Thomas A. Edison working eighteen
lours a day for the government, it
an be relied on to be a big factor in
ny conflict. Russia has demonstrat-
d that it is not SO much a large army
hat country needs as a well-trained,
p-to-the-minute fighting force.

sponsibility and members Of its body
to rule in the Cabinet. 1t has de.
ciared for co-operation between the
government and the people. Thus,
when the food riots gave occasion,
the provisional government took i'm
mediate and effective control. 1t was
virtually a restoration of order out
of the chaos of mismanagement and
inefficiency. The people were sick
of seeing their soldiers needlessly
slaughtered; they were tired of being
starved: they were disgusted with
the men about the car, for whom the
murder of Rasputin should have
served as a warning. The only way
to get rid of the cars advisers was
to get rid of the car. 1t was done,
and the provisional government has
been recognized in Europe. The war
party has succeeded.
1t is a question whether the Rus
sian people are ready for a Republic.
The grand duke is a liberal. and the
Duma is more likely to introduce
amendments to the constitution re-
organizing the government on the
English basis. 1t does not look as
if civil conflict would result. The
people have rallied to the Duma with
a directness and self-control that be-
speak not only confidence but under
standing. The revolution does not
look like flash in the pan-rather
the kind!ing of new beacon to light
the long darkness of the nation.

The government pays an instructor to

preparedness. However, of what avail
is this preparedness without a respect
for our country? There is a patriot
ism above that which was so manifest
on February 3. when the United States
broke of relations with Germany.
That patriotism is respect to the Stars
and Stripes and to the national an
them.
One hears so much of college spir-
it." We see its evidence at the mass
meetings which precede the football
games and at the various athletic con-
tests. on these occasions respect for
the "Old Gold and Black is shown.
and on one dares leave the bleachers

the last note of "Old Missouri" has
been sung. But when it comes to the
singing or playing of "The Star Span

on different aspect.
