Germany and Russia,

Germany is obviously playing for de-
lay in the dealings with the Russians.
1t is not to the interest of Germany
quickly to conclude peace on the east
ern front with merely the bolsheviki
standing as representatives of the Rus
sian people. For these elements now
in power are by no means assured of
support in Russia, and peace arrange
ment effected at Brest- Litovsk is sub
ject to unsettlement. So long as Ger
many can maintain a state Of armistice
the military advantage resulting from
the breakdown Of the Russian admins
tration outweighs any political or Geo.
nomic gain to be effected through the
writing of peace treaty. Germany is,
in truth, not concerned gravely over
the immediate future in Russia. So
long as she is faced by powerful foe
in the west and in the south, with the
United States growing stronger in the
field daily, the gain through Russia's
collapse IS measured solely by the. OPP
portunity to move large numbers of
troops from one front to another. 1t
is limited that Germany has reason to
apprehend complete restoration of
peace on the eastern front, with the
consequent opening Of the frontiers and
the free intercourse between the two
people that will necessarily result. The
German people are in no state to be
approached now by Russian radicals
with their half-formed revolutionary no.
tons. their wild socialism and their new
found power Of disorganization No
wonder that in these circumstances the
German negotiators at Brest -Litovsk
have proposed postponement of the
peace sessions until January "a.

until late in the contest. But the Presi-
dent could not see his way clear to inter-
fere. 1t is plain now that he could not
have saved Mr.. Mitchell, who was past
saving. So that the overwhelming de-
feat Of Mr. Mitchell cost the administra-
ton nothing in prestige.
AS The Star stated the other day, only
two men are now under discussion for
the place mentioned, Mayor elect Hylan,
who takes office next week, and Mr..
Hearst. The former protests the use of
his name, while the latter is non-com
initial. Judge Hylan thinks his duty is
in the city hall and not at Albany at
present--a very sensible notion.
When the administration is mentioned
there is thought of Secretaries McAdoo
and Redfeld, and Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Roosevelt, all New Workers
well known to the politics of the vicinagc.
The nomination for governor of either
would, of course, bring the <administra-
ton into the campaign-in a way, put
it on trial. Part of the appeal would be
for an Endorsement of the administra
ton by the voters of the state.
Some doubt is expressed, however, as
to the ACCESSIBILITY of making such an
appeal before 1920. If made next year
without success; if Gov. Whitman
should secure third term, the admin
istration. through the defeat of man of
its choice, would be injured.
As some politicians see the matter, Mr..
Wilson will either seek third nomina
ton, or try to name the next democratic
candidate for President. In either event
he should be as strong as possible
in 1920, taking no unnecessary chances
meanwhile either as to men or meas
ures. His difficulties arc already great,
his complications increasing. And his
path during the coming two years will
lead along perilous places.
The New York problem is very pref
ty one as it stands-inviting in way,
and yet because it is New York prob
lem requiring the very incest skill and
greatest caution in the handling

offenders. Not to do so would be to
surrender to the raiders.
There is sort Of peril, however, in
crossing the line even on so justifable
an errand. It serves as text for agi-
tators. Gen. Pershing encountered it
while seeking Villa. His presence was
resented even by some Mexicans with
out the slightest sympathy with Villa,
and who would have rejoiced to see
Villa taken But they wanted him taken
by Mexicans' They were played upon
by agitators, who told them that the
presence of the American troops was
an affront to Mexican sovereignty.
AS result, the American commander
had no assistance from the people of
the country. They eyed him with
either open or secret suspicion. Many
distractions were put in his path. He
returned empty-handed.
We are in good shape on the border
better now than when a display of force
seeiHeu ueCeSSdTS. III an emergency,
growing out Of banditry and its pun
ishment, we should be prepared to deal
with the immediate situation. But as
we have now in hand business of far
greater consequence, these pin pricks of
Mexican bandits are very annoying.
Should they grow in frequency and i'm
portance it would interfere in meas
ure with our larger plans to have to
address ourselves more actively to the
Mexican problem.
The power of the Carranza govern
ment should be stronger in northern
than in central or southern Mexico; and
certainly it should be exerted to the
limit in keeping order as against all
manifestation of anti-Americanisn
These bandits are probably but tools.
The inspiration, the controlling agency,
is "higher up" How hight And wheres
Why not make a special effort to To-
cate it, and, when found, deal with it!
Is it within, or without, Mexicos While
the hand may be the hand of Villa,
the control of the hand, we may all be
sure, is of much more consequence than
the hand or its owner.

Poisoned Baudapes.

The fiendishness that conceived and
executed the poisoning of wholesale lots
of Red Cross bandages Somewhere be-
tween Toledo and Cleveland is SO for
eign to American conception that the
tale that comes from the latter city is
well nigh incredible. Yet it is vouched
for in such way as to leave no doubt that
3 400 surgical dressings were actually rem
dered malevolently septic in some mys-
FERROUS manner in transit. This could
not have been accidental. It must have
been by design, by deliberate diabolism
Imagination is not at fault in suggest
ing the source or motive for this plan.
Fortunately its discovery was prompt
and no harm has resulted save the loss
of material, which may well be saeri-
feed If this case serves as warning to
insure the scrupulous guarding of all
Red Cross materials. 1t is only too
plain that there are foes at work here
in America seeking by the most subtle
and terrible means to cripple our war
work, to discourage our people, to rem
der our very agencies of suceor and
mercy menaces to us. 1t is hoped, of
course, that these bandage prisoners
can be found. If found they should
with the swiftest process available be
put to death, for only capital punish
ment is adequate for crime of this
character.

Railroad Director McAdoo.

The selection of Secretary McAdoo as
the director of the railroad system un-
der the Presidents proclamation of fed
erai control in certain respects promises
the best results for the government adj
ministration of the transport lines Mr..
MeAdoO has demonstrated executive
ability of the highest order. His posi-
ation as Secretary of the Treasury ac-
quaints him with the financial forces
that operate in the management of the
railway system. He is acquainted with
conditions affecting the construction
the ownership and the operation Of rail
ways. His success in floating two great
loans to meet the governments war
needs has proved his capacity for big
achievements. Administration Of all the
republics railroad lines is a bigger task
than any that has been assigned to a
single American, and it will call for the
wisest head and the steadiest hand, and
for strenuous non-partisan activity, with
view single to the utilization to the
full of the country's transportation ia.

Travel.

When the engine is a-singin'
And the bell is ringin
And the old train starts to roam
With the ears in long procession,
You are handed the impression
That There's No Place Like Home.
The dining ear waiter lets YOU wait.
1t doesn't seem to matter if the train
is late.
You're entirely out Of date
If you're not load of freight.
And There's No Place Like Home.
All the sleeping ears are taken,
In a day coach you are shaken,
And the smoke grows thick as loan.
When slumber overtakes you,
Something bumps the train and wakes
you.
There's No Place Like Home.
Your fellow man regards you with a
Hook of hate,
And jams you with his elbow till you
sit up straight.

That they put you in crate,

The New York democracy is in need
of state leader. 1t needs him for sery
Zee next year. The call, therefore. is of
hurry nature. He should appear in

him?

Taking Over the Railroads.

By exercise Of a war power vested IN
him by Congress the President has
taken over the entire transportation
system of the United States as meas
ure of war. Thus the country passes,
by process so swift as to be almost
magical, to full government control of
the arteries of communication, always
heretofore exclusively under private
ownership and management. This is
but another of the marvels wrought by
the war in Europe, which has now be-
come our war, and which is causing ire
mendous changes in every part of the
world and in all the relations of man
kind.
This action by the President is not
surprising, and yet it is precipitated
in advance of expectation, inasmuch as
it was announced that he would address
Congress on the subject after the recon-
vening next week. 1t now appears that
he will communicate with Congress, but
merely in reference to details of fnan-
cial guarantees which he is not empow-
cred under the statutes to give in the
. taking over of the railroads and other
transport facilities.
Under the new arrangement the rail
roads and their appurtenant water
transport lines will be operated as a
whole under the control of the Secre
tary of the Treasury, acting as director.
They will for the present, and so far
as it is possible to continue efficiently,
be actually handled by their present
executive staffs. There should be no
question about coordination in these
circumstances. The present difficulties
are chiefly financial The railroads are
physically at this time virtually one
whole system, with connecting, inter
secting and coinciding trackage. They
are all standard gauge. Their rolling
stock can be operated anywhere. Where
the system has broken down in the pres
: emit strain Of war emergency is in the
inability to insure continuous flow of
traffic through lack of rate arrange
ments and the absence of an established
: equitable system of adjustments. Only
through the federal control can the roads
!. be operated as a whole.
. The President declares his confidence
in the.enactment Of legislation that will
guarantee the owners of the railroads,
the hundreds Of thousands of stock
holders, fun protection for their prop
erty, the payment of equitable divi-
: dends during government control and
the rehabilitation of the systems upon
their return to private management
. This confidence is doubtless we'll
founded.
With these measures in operation the
railroad system of the country becomes
J in truth a part of the war resources. It
;. will be possible 10 move troops and
supplies much more speedily than in the
past months. 1t will be possible also
to maintain smoother flow of CONNER
eial freight. 1t will be possible to keep
the people supplied more fully and de-
pendably with fuel and food. It is too
much to expect the freight congestion
to dissolve in few hours after the
government takes hold, but the present
dangerous choking of the tracks and
terminals must yield soon to measures
OF relief that only the government act
ing with its full power can apply.
