WAR A HARD TASKMASTER

There is widespread opinion that some of the men who are directing affairs at Washington at the present time cannot long survive the rigOr- ous demands which attend the hard business of conducting a successful war. Men who are notably mediocre under ordinary circumstances seldom distinguish themselves in a crisis; and the reuuiren! !ents of war are the most exacting of all requirements for eff ticiency. The Portland Journal com- ments on the subject thus:
 The generals who begin war sel- dom end it. The proud commanders at the start of our Civil War were eX- tinct in retirement before it was over.
 The fate Of battle moved them down like grass. We do not mean that they were killed. They were weighed and found wanting So vivid was the French revolution that the people invented myth to describe it 'The revolution devOurs our sons,' they said.
 Where are the big human guns yho roared at the beginning of this war? Where are Winston Churchill AsQuith. Kitchener? Where are French and Jellicoe? Germany has thrown her Moltke. Tirpitz, Falken- hayn upon the junk pile. France has fitted swiftly from general to general. from statesman to statesman.
 Will it be any difference here? We TOW not. Heads that wag grandly and wisely today will be sputtering in the discard tomorrow. War has small respect for suave manners and

FIRST TROOPS TO FRONT

While the senate and house con- terees were sweating blood over their differences as to whether con- gress should authorize Col. Roosevelt to proceed to the French front with a volunteer force of American troops. the government has taken the hrst definite step to place Yankees on the firing line at the earliest practicable moment-and this honor will fall not to fighting men, but to army enineers.
 In recruiting nine regiments, or be- tween 1000 and 12,00O engineers, for immediate service. the govern ment is taking steps, largely at the suggestion of France and England. to assist the allies in maintaining their lines of communication. The new forces will De commanded by engi- |neer colonels of the regular army. aided by adjutants. but they will ir reality be for the most part high'y trained railroad men. The entente m the west is faced with a colossal proE- lem of maintaining adequate supply lines and as the railroads are the vital element of. the system that feed men, shells and food toward the hght- ing front from channel ports and from France. American railroad men will be particularly qualified for this work.
 Something Of the magnitude of the task of keeping up the lines of con- munication is gained from the fact that a whole British railroad was picked up bodily recently, rolling stock, rails, roadbed and all and talk en to France. American engineers had much to do with that project. and also have assisted the allies to drive tun- nels, build spurs and bridges and mapped out schemes of transporta- ton that are in operation today.
 America is pre-eminent in the field of railway engineering and the best talent and experience the nation can provide will go into the new regi- ments.
 The effect of the new plan is that American loops carrying the Ameri- can flag and in the uniform of the American army soon will be oh French soil. That there is psycho- logical value in such movement is the opinion of the French and Brit ish Commissioners now in this coun- try. The precise extent of this value will be known within few weeks.
