Travel is falling off. The summer
tourist is becoming rare. One Of the
largest resorts in the Canadian Rock
los has an,average of only 80 guests,
with more than twice as many serv-
ants and 500 rooms.
A street sweeper would be put in the
zoo. He's nearly an extinct animal.
You'll find him unloading ships and
working in mines. And a water wagon

Canadians are chiefly concerned with
getting enough to eat and wear.
Wars influence is everywhere. Three
of the buffalo kept by the government
at Banff Springs broke off diplomatic
relations and destroyed each other in
a vicious battle of horns.

Grand Forks, B. C.-Because they

Deserters Are Said 10

TROUBLE ALSO IN THE NAVY
Four Torpedo Boats Are Seized, and
Attempt Is Made to Escape,
but Two Are Sunk by Pur-
suing Battleship.

London.-General decentralization of
IIermuny's population and widespread
and growing disallectlOn in the German
army, accompanied by mutiny and de-
sertions, are described in Il dispatch
to the Daily Telegraph from Its Rotter'
dam correspondent.
The correspondent says that infor'
nation reaching him is so sensational
as to inspire skeptlclsm, but declares
he has received undoubted cOrrObora'
tlon from authoritative sources.
lie asserts that the Germany army
is filled with dependency and seeth-
ing with mutiuOus spirit, and that
alarming outbreaks have occurred in
several units, principally Bavarian and
SiESian.
One incident on the Arras front
terminated in u whole Bavarian divi-
sion being disarmed and transported
to Bavaria, where it was placed in a
PRISON camp, and the mutiny of one OF
The Silesian regiments resulted in near
ly 100 of its men being executed.
Desertions Are Heavy.
A huge number of desertiOns are
occurring, the correspondent says, and
it is estimated that there are more
4 an 10000 deserters in Berlin alone.
Large numbers are scattered
throughout the country and the author
itirs are having the greatest difficulty
in trailing deserters owing TO the con-
nIyance of the working classes. Never
thcless hundreds have been arrested
and generally these have been SEN
fenced to 10 years Imprisonment. A
great number of imprisoned deserters,
broken by solitary confinement, have
been released and sent back to the
ranks.
Disobedience and defiance of officers
is common ut the front, according to
the correspondents information, and a
similar spirit is shown in the munition
factories. where the workers deliber-
ntely are slowing up, with the result
that the output has been seriously de-
creased.
Heavy Cannonading Heard.
at was reported from various places
on the Danish and NOrgegian coasts
three weeks ago that heavy cannonad-
ing was heard from the North sea-
says Il dispatch from Christiania to the
Times. "a few days later the bodies
of German marines were washed up,
most of them on the coast Of Jutland,
but no fighting was reported on either
the British or German side.
SO there was much speculation about
these floating cOrpses, which bore life
belts with the figures and initials OF
two different German torpedo boats.
An explanation is now given by the
Aftenpost's correspondent at Copen-
hagen, who says Il report was received
yesterday from across the German
frontier of a recent mutiny. German
navy crews refused to 20 aboard the
U-boats to which they belong, and
seizing four torpedo boats set course
for Norway.
They we're overtaken by German
warship and a regular fight ensued,
with the result that ut least two tor
pedO boats were sunk and the crews
drowned or killed.

UNIyERSAL. TRAINING FOR CITIZENSHIP
AND PUBLIC SERVICE. BY William IT. Alien.
limo. PIP. tx. 2Sl. The Macmillan Company.
Mr.. Allen essays to answer the often
recalled question which Socrates ad-
dressed to Callias, concerning the train
ing of his sons to be useful citizens.
1t is question upon the practical
answering of which depends, more then
upon anything else, the civic welfare
of the community and tie state. We
may not entirely agree with Pope's
dictum, that in government "Whate'er
is best administered is best" but at
least we must concede that no mere
form of government, however good, can
serve our purposes without good ad-
mlnlstration, and it must be equally
clear that in republic or democracy
the excellence of administration must
depend upon the character and capa-
city of the constituent citizenship.
This volume is the fruit of long and
intimate study of public affairs and
their needs. 1t deals with general
principles and with many technical
details, relating to nearly every phase
of the subject. With some of the au-
thor's opinions and recommendations

Idle Speculations

1t seems to us much more profitable
to discuss ways and means of energeti-
ca!iy prosecuting the war to victori-
Gus close than to speculate upon what
VIII happen, especially in our DO
mestic affairs, after the war. The pru-
dent prescription Of Mrs. Glass is per
tinent. But if we are to consider post
bellum problems, we should at least do
so with judgment. Much that the auth or
of this book has to say is sane and not
Improbable. But we cannot regard the
separation of Canada from Great Brit
ain and its erection into an independent
republic as one of the post bellum
probabilities or desirabilities Is there
really so portentous and vexatious a
Canadian problem" for the United
States that we must look for such a
revolution as its only satisfactory So
luton? We cannot believe it. Neither
can we agree with the author in think
ing that "since America has declared
var against Germany the conduct Of
ITS democracy has justified the expecta
tlons of the most ardent Americans"
Cn the contrary, we are afraid tnat
democracy is still on trial in this coun-
try to determine whether it can equa,
otner systems in efficiency. Indeed, the
author himself practically repudiates
the statement which we have lust
quoted when he says-and says most
truly-that "unless America arouses
itself to the necessity of preparedness
as policy it is doomed sooner or later
to destruction as great power" Yes,
and because it has not thus aroused
itself the conduct of its democracy has
MT justified expectations.

Our Foreign Relations
A Scholarly Consideration of

RELATIONS Ey Edwari $. Cor.in. Professor
q Politics In Princeton University. l2mo. PIP.
ZIG. Princeton University Press.
There IS 70 more important function
If government than the direction and
control of relations with other powers; !;
and there is none in our own system
less clearly defined or bestowed. 1t
has been almost automatic since the
1,rys of Washington that all our dip
lomatic affairs are intrusted to the
Executive Departments; yet in fact they
are divided between the Executive and
the legislative, and in one or two cases
between the two houses of the Legis-
lative Department Thus, the Presi-
dent alone receives cnvoys from abroad
ard appoints ENJOYS; but his appoint
rents must be approved by the Senate,
and their expenses must be provided
for by the Eouse of Representatives
The President makes treaties; but they
must be ratified by the Senate; and in
some cases the House Of Representa-
tives must provide means for their full
flment. Again, it is truism that only
the Congress can declare war; but the
President can precipitate war by COM
hitting acts which are certain to pro
woke it. Both houses are required for
declaration of war; but the President
and the Senate alone can make peace.
These are just few of the curious
complications OF our constitutional
system, which several times have
caused embarrassment and which
might on occasion lead to serious
trouble Of course the saving factor
of the problem is always our national
common sense; and it is to this thai
Professor Corwin appeals in this most
timely, most instructive and most inter

and explanatory, rather than propa-
gandsst or dictatorial. Scholarly in a
high degree. it is also intensely prac-
teal. Indeed we know of no other
treatise on this important subject that

average Intelligent citizen, as we'll as
to guide and assist the statesman. The
view is broad, lofty, non-partisan;
seeking the aim Of no political school
but father of the best American ma
tiora spirit. In one noteworthy re-
spect the author differs from one of
his predecessors in the Princeton chair

the Presidency had originally been the
"thrtne of administration" but that it
had lost power and fallen from its

Sound American Doctrine

LETTERS TO THE MOTHER or A SOLDIER
By Richardson Wright l2mo pp. l35. Tht
Frederick y. Stokes Company.
Whether these letters were actually
written to any one does not appear;
nor does it matter. The essential
thing is that they are printed in a
book, through which they can be ad-
dressed to every mother of soldier
and indeed to every American citizen,
lb1y whom we wish they might be read.
They are full of sound American doc
trine, calculated to inspire the reader
With more just appreciation of the
aims of the war and of the righteous
ness of our anticipation in it. Also
there is in them much which should
cause heart searchings; thus:
If our foreign born citizens-our
Irish Americans, German-Americans
and Russian Jews-are so bitterly
opposed to our part in the war
then something must be wrong with
American methods of naturalization.

under no fewer shan thirty-onc heads
and innumerablc subhcads. the chap

who are nationally and internationally

to find another book Of so compact COM

these generations of peace and
prosperity we have failed to alb
sorb these people, failed to make
our country their country and our
flag their flag, then it is about time
we looked into the matter. 1t is
easy enough to blame German prop

something is wrong with us if it is
