The Red Cross and Morgan.

The announcement that the machin-
cry Of J. P. Morgan & Co. will be used
in the relieI work Of the American Red
Cross becomes impressive when the
achievements Of that firm as agents Tor
the allies in buying practically every
thing needed for the var, except food
stuffs and horses, are considered. II
was Henry P. Davidson who has taken
the lead in the Red Cross emergency,
who persuaded the British government
of the wisdom Of designating single
purchasing agent in Aneuca. The
allies wer, bii1ing against each
other then and spectators were taking
options and running prices to the sky.
The Morgan firm took charge OF al
buying, charging a commission OF J
per cent. Its gross commissions are
estimated to have exceeded $50, 900,
900 but the saving was enormous.
The New York Annalist, in describ'
ing the remarkably efficient organ
ization built for the purpose, says tha,

! in the firm the first year.
: When the United States declared
war and the government announced it
policy Of rendering financial aid to TIL
allies, Morgan & Co. retired. Th
government will hereafter attend /
such buying, There had been con
y lectures that the equipment would b

Russia And Germany.

While the Russian situation gives
good reason for anxiety the balance
Of probability is much in favor Of un-
tied front against Germany and the
prosecution Of the war to a finish. The
enmitY toward Germany is strong am
ong the people Of Russia. 1t was
felt before the war long before and
surely il has not been so!tened by the
loss Of millions Of Russian lives. Every
village in that great land has furnished
its quota 10 the grave that have
been filed by German shot and shell,
Almost every family has ielt directly
the loss OF some one dear, lost by
death Or by capture, and it is not with
in human nature 10 Ieel friendly toward
the cause Of such general sorrow and
suffering. 1t may be true that the
soldiers at the front have "iraternized"
with those Of the enemy IN the quiet
days OF the past lew months, but no
such Ieeiing oil tolerance is probable
among the people back home. Nor is
II evidence u irltnd.lness on the firing
line. The Union ard Confederate
soldiers traded tobacco and joked one
with another wnen tneir lines drew
them close together dunns the civl,
war, and we hear OF klnde exchanges
et civllity along the trenches in France
but those were and these are none the
less enemies.
The Russian monarchy has been
overthrown by the people OF Russia,
and the primary reason for its downfall
was the wide spread conviction that
the imperia! government was not sin
cerely opposing the Germans and was
likely to betray the county. The peo
pie are now in control OF the govern
ment, and however crude and inc tfici

A Measure Of Penalty.

Encouragement OF the dissemination
Of information has been fixed princi'
pie Of our government since its estab
hshment. II was obvious to the irund
ers o! the republic, as it has been to
enlightened statesman ever since, that
il the people are to rule wisely they
must be kept ir nch with the pro-
grcss Of events and must take an &C
tive interest in the conduct Of pullc
affairs. The higher ideals Of demo
cTacy ate y TO De attained, bu! lhsre
can be no Qn.s 10 Ing ut he fact that
the acqunemen, ol < neral kuowlsdge
and Of current information Is essential
10 their attainment. Il was to this
end that the postage rate on newspa
peTs and periodicals was made low at
the very beginning ot the government
and our example in this respect has
been followed by other democratic
nations to their profit. The postage
rate on newspapers in Great Btilian has
long been virtually the same as in this
country, a half penny a pound, and as
here this class OF mail has always been
carried at a loss to the government,
From time 10 time short sighted econo-
mists and politicians have been object
ed to this. but the rate has never been
changed except to extend its progisi
ons. No, even the pressing exlgen'
cies OF war have induced the states
men OF Great Britain 10 increase the
postage rates on newspapers, nor, tol
that matter on any class Of mail. Ye,
last year the deficit in their postal ser
vice was 2,736, 900 over Sl3, 100000
while our government had surplus o

904 on account oil previous year!
clearing in fact as many million al
Great Britain lost.
Now the Ways and Means Comm
ittee OF the House Of Representative
proposes 10 set aside the precedent
and experience Of more than a centur,
and put the newspapers out Of bust
ness by an increase from 100 TO Sol
per cent in the second class postag
rate, an exaction which few newspaper
could pay and survive, and whic
would seriously lessen the usefulness {
all that remained, Itis quite evider
from the statement Of Mr.. Kitchin i
the House, that the purpose OF this i
crease is not so much TO produce res
! enue, for that it would not do, as t
punish the newspapers for their crit
! cisms OF public official, and o! Kitchi
in particular. We do not believe tn
