RISE UP TO If. RUSSIA!

., Ambassador BakhmetieH has stir:
red up our Senate and House with
the declarations that his country will
not make separate peace, because
Russia wants the world to be safe
for democracy! @"4T| '.r
Russia, then, is not for indemni.

i4}egllis worldwide democracy. 1t is
a glorious ideal, all right, but isn't it
one so abstract, so far-away that the
Russian masses will not rise to it as
is hoped? Are the Russian people
so far advanced that they will en-
Enthusiastically pay, fight and bleed
without any selfish interest entering
into the issue? viii Russian patriot
ism rise to the sacrificing, dying tenn
perature unless the people are clear
ly convinced that, for them, not
worldwide democracy, but their own
democracy is the paramount issue?
The Russians, with their almost un-
limited natural resources, have peen
held back by commercial isolation
and exclusion. A Teutonic empire
extending from the Baltic to Persia,
the evident ambition of Germany,
would make Russia the commercial
servant of Germany, with anything
like democracy in Russia's trade re-
lations at the mercy of Germany
What would victorious kaiser do to
a subservient Russia, first thing ?
For political, commercial and war
reasons, he would restore Russian
autocracy, as the condition most east
ly and economically managed
There's no doubt of this.
Worldwide democracy is a star up
on which the Russian masses may
we'll keep their eyes, but Russian
democracy must, first, fight Germany
for its own life. The pressing issue
is right at every Russian democrats
freside. When the Russians become
fully aroused to this fact, we believe
that they'll do some heavy fighting.
OF course, NJ. Bakhmetieff's lauda-
tion of our ideals at Washington is
right enough. 1t flatters US, and
hurts nobody. But it is to be hoped
that when he returns to Russia he
gives 'em the real hell-fire and brim-
stone" as Rev. Billy Sunday puts it.

IT Is FINE.

And now the Red Cross fund has
been over-subscribed by millions! In
almost no time, the people came for
ward and subscribed fund for relief
of the worlds suffering unequaled in
history. Children and grown-ups, rich
and poor, white and black, people OF
all creeds and natiyities have prompt
ly backed the cause of worldwide
democracy with worldwide charity,
and it is really the most tremendous
thing among all the great events of
the war.
But it is not the final demonstra-
ton of what's in the heart Of the
people. 1t by no means sizes up their
willingness and determination.
If the war continues for long, great
popular sacrifices will be necessary.
They will be met.

OUR FIGHTING FRIENDS FIRST.

OUR FIGHTING FRIENDS FIRST.
The agreement reached with the
operators in bituminous coal, under
which consumers will get coal at the
mine. price, plus cost of transporta-
ton and 25 cents per ton commission,
naturally makes prominent the ques-
ton as to fuel conditions amongst
our allies.
Cold, rather than hunger, was the
chief horror borne by the people Of
France and Italy, last winter, and
tremendous increase of suffering
must come next winter unless some
thing is done at once. England can
furnish France and Italy sufficient
coal, but her difficulty is to ship it
across the channel. She can make
the passage safely, but she hasn't the
ships, and is losing ships every day;
hence. it would seem that America
must be, largely depended upon to re.
move the deficiency Here comes in
our question of steel ships or wooden
ships. To help in transporting fuel
across the English channel. we have
got to supply lot of ships at the
earliest possible moment, as Jack
Frost waits for nobody. 1t is certain
that we can turn out wooden cargo
ships much more rapidly than we can
steel ships.
Again, the European neutrals, now
so anxious about President Wilson's
export plans, are importing American
stuff in American ships, thus saving
their own merchant fleets from U.
boat dangers and reserying them for
competition with American trade
ships, after the war. Compelling
these neutrals to put their own fleets
into transatlantic service would re-
lease American ships for that trans
channel fuel service. Why should
our ships run the U-boat gauntlet
when they might be safely supplying
France and Italy with the all-neces-
RAry fuel? laSs - i,iW 3oad eES

WHAT WILL IT PROVE?

Baer's election or rejection in the
First Congressional district next
Tuesday will not necessarily be test
of, the Nonpartisan leagues strength
in the state. 1t will prove only that
the farmers of that district desire to
take another step toward state So
cialism and endorse in principle at
least federal socialism or government
ownership of public utilities.
The. league, fortunately for Cover
nor Frazier and, A. On Townley. is to
have it's first ordeal since election in
district always recognized as a
stronghold. If Baer fails, it will indi-
cate that the voters Of the, First, dis
trict are not prepared to ignore es-
tablished party lines in national poll
tics. "... H.. s.
Mr.. Bangs, 1t is reasonable to sup
pose, will hold the normal democratic
vote. Sit u Just possible that Mr..
Baer will gather the stray followers
of President Wilson, because the
name Baer was once identified with
democratic politics and further distin-
guished by democratic patronage.
This leaves the republican vote to
be split chiefly between Baer and
Burtness, with the odds decidedly in
favor of Baer Governor Frazier and
the state machinery are working for
Baer. In addition is the league, with
its battery of "tin lizzies," each man
ned by stump speakers, trained in
the arts of the hustings.s @ n
If the league cannot win an cleo
ton in Governor Frazier's own dis
trict with success of a state election
still fresh in the minds of all, the de-
feat naturally will lessen the pres
tige of the iNonpartisans, not neces-
sarily a fatal blow, however. So
The election of Burtness, of course,
is to be desired. Congress recog-
nizes parties in it's procedure. Baer's
status in Washington would be novel,
He adheres to no organized national
party. Deceptive as the label, Non
partisan, is, essentially the league
represents party entity as much as
the republican, democratic or social
list parties do. Mr. Baer, if elected,
will 60 to Washington as the embod-
iment of the leagues first national
victory His election will make Town
ley's task of Matchmaking the league
easier
A congressman who is listed in the
directory as a Nonpartisan will be a
card to draw to, a great psychological
factor in Townley's dream to place a
nonpartisan in the White House and

NO WHiTEWASH FOR ENGLAND.

| One of the most interesting things
about this war has been the manner
in which England has faced the grim
and bitter truth about her disasters.
Every time there was evidence that
someone had greatly Numbered, re-
sulting not only in the loss Of cam
paign, but in the useless throwing
away of lives and treasure, there has
been a searching investigation.
In each case the responsibility was
fixed, the men guilty were named,
and the whole report published for
the information of the people of the
empire. There has been no white
wash bucket. 80, % -, @.E
After the disasters at Gallipoli, a.
report was issued which fastened the
responsibility upon people in very
high places. So in the latest report
on the first and futile Mesopotamian
campaign, which resulted in the, ig-
nominious surrender at Kut-el-Amara.
The blame is placed not only upon
certain generals, but also upon for
mer viceroy of India and former
member of the British war cabinet.
That is one of the beauties about
real democracy. There is no one
so sacred that he must be shielded;
no one so powerful that his blunders
must be shifted to some scapegoat.

A great vision, indeed. But Baer's
election is one. Of 'Townley's trumps

are immense and the emoluments be

There is more than a local interest
in the election next Tuesday. 1t scin

Labor Lacking. !

~ Central Europe's food problems have
during recent months been adversely
Influenced BY the fact that slowly the
railroads are losing their efficiency and
are no longer able to do their share In
the distribution Of these necessities.
The war has made heavy demands
upon the lines, and it has been impos.
sible to give trackage and rolling stock
the care they require lonod nj
D." For almost two years now the rail.
roads have been neglected. THY and
the heavy traffic over many 81 the fprin-
cipal lines due to the war have made
the railroad system a mere shadow Of
what it was formerly. 3-
Tracks In Poor Condition.
Ballasting has been very Indifferent.
ly done by old men, boys, women and
prisoners Of war, with the result that
the wear on the ties has been unusual.
~ severe, a condition which in its turn
has caused q rapid deterioration OF
the rails and rolling stock.
Lack of skilled labor has prevented
the state and private railroads from
keeping the rolling stock in good re.
pair This compelled a lessening in
the speed Of trains. A reduction of
carrying capacity of the roads has also
resulted. Locomotives especially are
in poor condition. In their case neg.
lect was added to more and heavier
service.
1t is very doubtful whether in all of
central Europe it would be possible to
find an engine capable of performing
service withip 60 per cent of its for.
mer efficiency. This is especially no.
ticeahle in cold weather, when the
steam Issuing from a hundred leaking
joints illustrates what per cent of pow.
er is derived from the coal burned.
Lines Tied Up by Wrecks.
Hardly week passes without some
wreck. Most Of these have been to
freight trains, since the sweeping re.
auctions in the speed of passenger
trains were made last fall. The fact
That the lines are then tied up for
hours at time increases the dificulty
OF the traffic situation.
Last winter thousands of tons Of DO.
tatoes and other vegetables were
ruined In this manner, trains having to
be sidetracked for days in order to
clear lines Of wrecks and then permit
delayed military transports to pass.
The outlook in railroad matters in
central Europe is extremely gloomy.
Many Of the lines must be entirely re.
laid with ties and rails before a normal
traffic can be conducted over them.
While the war lasts this work cannot
be DONE, and with each day the de-
probation increases in almost geometrt,
cal proportions. ~
The yards Of most railroad cen.
tiers are clogged with rolling stock
which Is no longer serviceable. Should
the war last another two years central
Europe will be obliged to completely
re'eQuip most Of its lines.
