Elihu Root has made his public utter
snce on the conditions which he and the

found in Russia. II would be interesting
now to know just what he will report to
President Wilson and other government
officials OF course, it is not expected
that a man like Root is deceiving the
American public, or planning to do so /;
but it is certain that many intimate
facts about Russias internal affairs were
not disclosed in the statement which
Root made for perusal by the people as a
whole. Nor could the American people
expect to be given that intimate infor-
nation because there are too many per-
sons about who would take base advan-
