urbs and many ships in the river and
harbor.
Together with Southern Livonia, Riga
fell to Poland in 1861, and remained
under Polish rule till 1921, when
Gustavus Adolphus. Sweden's great
warrior king, took it from the Poles
and held it through the rest Of the
seventeenth century against constant
assaults by Poles sno Russian armies
After the battle of Poltava Riga fell
tc the Russians In July, l7l0.
The shipping industry by no means
constituted Riga's sole activity before
the war. It's manufactured products
included glass, machinery, leather
railway cars and tiles, amounting TO
moro than S3O,O0O,OOO annually. 1t was
a great market for timber and grain of
all sorts.
Since the war began Riga has not
been OF as great economic value to
Russia as it might have been il the
old and new governments had possessed
the enterprise 70 make the most use of
the manufacturing and shipping facili-
ties Of the city. IL was the centre Of
German intrigue before the revolution,
and up 10 the overthrow Of the Car,
the Germans managed 70 draw heavily
on the grain market of Russia through
this Russo-German port.
Ostensibly, the great grain trade
during the first two years Of the war
was carried on with Sweden, but the
shipments eventually found their way
to German ports. After the revolution
shipments OF grain 10 Riga were
diverted to other sections Of the country
to feed the half-starved population in
stead Of the enemy.

"The President is more happy when
he declares the present Germany to be
the enemy Of four-ifths of the human
race. She is their enemy because she

pie, says the President in high and
generous sentiment, resign itself to
the acceptation of regime of equality
and no longer seek TO dominate all
other nations as il is trying 10 do to-
day-such is the primordia basis Of
every peace project. There il none
other than that, and the desires of the
Pope are the same as those OF the
President.
Such is the peace we shall have,

mourn, the peace of which the liberia

I've did not wish to make war on

Thanks to our army chiefs for hav-

the war which Belgium has imposed
upon US has created a situation that

Regency to Fail,
Say Poles Here
Germany's New Device Is
Characterized as For

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-The new
German attempt 10 mollify the Poles
by the substitution of threeheaded
regency for the Polish State Council
recently dissolved by General Won
Beseler. the German administrator, will
absolutely fail, in the opinion Of the
officials Of the Americana Polish organi

1t will not ease in any way the eff

Sees Victory in Reserves
French Deputy Analyses the
Entente Superiority

PARIS, Sept, 3.-Abel Ferry, a
prominent member of the Cham
Der of Deputies, contributes an
article to the Petit Parisien"
on "The War OF Electives" IN
which he says that the side whose
reserves first give out will be con-
ouered. The general war plan Of the
Allies, he believes, must take into
proper account the wear and tear OF
French electives and also the losses
and the resources in men OF each one
of the Allies.
The Deputy refers to the part in the
war which has been played b. the
French army, and says II should now
become the reserve army of the coali-
ton. The reserves Of the Allies, he
writes, are superior to those OF the
Central Powers, their armaments are
as good and they have the superiority
in production.

Shake-Up Is Near
In French Cabinet

LONDON, Sept. 3.-The shake-up in
the French Cabinet, considered long
overdue, is expected TO take place al
most Immediately. Though several
ministers probably will be transferred,
some new blood will be infused into
the Cabinet.
The retirement of ". Mslvy. Minister
Of the Interior, following the attacks
by Clemenceau because OF his unfor-

Wilson's Guard Increased

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-President
Wilson's Secret Service guard was in
creased to-day, when he returned with
Mrs. Wilson from a weekend cruise
on the Mayfiower. Instead of the
three or four men usually forming the
Pres dent's guard, there were seven in
the motor car accompanying him from
the navy yard dock Four other Secret
Service men, mounted on motorcycles,
rode close by.
The guard was the largest assigned
since the President entered the White
House. This is taken as an indication
that he will be more securely guarded
during the remainder of the war.
