CAPE.

With the American Army North
west OF Nerdun, Thursday Oct. "A,
by The Associated Press.)-
Americans captured an immense
German armored battle plane We'd
nesday north Of Brieulles. The ma,
chine was virtually intact but the
pilot and gunners made their es-
cape.
1t is presumed that the battle
plane was downed a day or two ago
by American avatorS.
From east Of the Meuse, German
artillery endeavored to protect the
plane, but the American guns let
down counter fire upon the en-
envy gun cmplacementS. When a
lull came, American infantry hauled
the plane to safety.
\ number of valuable instruments
and the two machine guns were cap
tured. The battle plane was
equipped with a bomb dropping de
vice and had sighting arrange
mcnt so fixed that the gunner can
see to shoot directly beneath him.
This gun was for firing on roads.
so far as. known, this is the first
plane OF this type captured by Amer
leans. Half the iuselage was coy
cred with quarter inch armor.

r mment In Allied Capitals
On Wilson Reply To Germany
lndorses Presidents Program

III lrcSutnl w llSOll note 10 bct-
many, the Daily News says:
The imperial chancelor'S note
left matters in suspense, but the
presidents takes them where they
ihould be. Sincerity of the German
peoples desire for peace is today
brought to the final test. If the Ger
mans accept the presidents terms,
kshere is no reason why fighting
IIk4pld not end in less than week.
Wilson, beyond question, speaks
toFevery allied nation
The Telegraph commendS the
president with the right attitude to-
ward the allies and especially wei
comes his reference to a matter OF
declaring an armistce to the military
eaders.
The Times says: "lf the Germans
will.not accept peace OF justice
without violence, then violence will
make them accept just peace. The
difference between German violence
and the force without stint which
President Wilson proposes, il nee
essary to employ, is that German
warfare is violence in the service Of
rapacuy, while warfare OF the allies
is warfare in the service OF right
eousnesS."
Masterpiece of Diplomacy
Under the caption, "The Retort
Courteous" the Post says
"President Wilson's note is
masterpiece OF diplomacy. 1t rivets
the German government to an un-
qualified acceptance of his peace
terms. In what may be called the
presidents ultimatum, he again OF
fers the German people an oppor-
tunity to set themselves as nearly
right as may be and provides at the
same time some guarantee OF good
faith"
The Express describes Mr.. VIII
sons note as the greatest OF the
series OF his mastery state papers,
Y After eulogizing the note OF Pres
ident Wilson as AN admirable state
ment," the Times expresses salts
Ngson that it reveals the closest
Rssible agreement between Amer
L<ican and British views. The news
paper thinks that at the moment
there is no more than chance that
the Germans will ask an armlstlce.
The Times is gratified at the mani
fest signs OF close cooperation be-
tween the military commanders on
the western front, while the pres
ence of Colonel House who has ar
rived in France, will make for po-
litical as well as military co-ordlna-
ton"
One Adverse Criticism.
The solitary adverse criticism OF
Mr. Wilson's note appears in the
Graphic. which complains OF the
length OF the document, adding;
AT such a crisis bandying words
suggests a lack OF dignity and ere
ates a loophole for further diplo'
matte trigglng.'
The Daily Mail says:

A Successful Career.

John Purroy Mitchell, buried in New
York yesterday, was fine American
capable, courageous, conscientious and
resourceful. He had not reached the
fortieth milestone, and yet had distin-
guished himself in civil affairs, and had
bright prospects Of distinction in mill
tary affairs. He is mourned by his
city, his state and by the country.
Mr. Mitchell, after giving, in the opin-
ion Of many competent judges, an ex-
cellent account Of himself in the office
Of mayor of New York city, was de-
MED reelection. His defeat was over
whelming. For the moment, it looked
ike rebuke. In small and tempo
rary and superficial sense, it was q
rebuke.
But, notwithstanding, the man and the
official, in the larger and longer and
deeper sense, won. He had left an i'm
press on affairs which will survive as
an inspiration to those coming after
with similar views Of public duty.
Reform sometimes appears defeated.
But it never is defeated for long. Like
truth-and it is an offspring Of truth
crushed to earth it rises again.
There will be other reform move
ments in New York city. They inhere

Politics.

Considerable discussion centers now
upon two questions. Is politics ad-
journeds If not, should politics be
adjourneds
AS to the first question, the weight
of opinion is that politics is not ad-
journed. There is much proof in sup
port of the opinion. The politicians
are all active. Candidates for Congress
are announced as democrats or repub-
icans. Committees are busy with
party interests. Campaign funds are
being arranged for with party objects
in view. Turn in any direction, and
politics, in some form, faces you.
As to the second question, that is
answerabe, and answered, Yankee
fashion, by another question. Why
should politics be adjournedi The
war does not demand it. Politics is not
interfering with the war. Thus far it
has not appeared in any phase Of the
hostilities. Neither in the declaration
of war, nor in forwarding war aims
and ends, has division on party lines
occurred.
Nothing outside the war demands the
adjournment Of politics. On the con-
trary, in connection with the choosing
-pf tho next Congress, muche demands

tht livsliest political activity. That
body will organize on the eve Of the
next presidential campaign, and the
legislation Of the first session will fur
nish material for the construction in
part of the national platforms Of that
year.l Politics will be the wear during
the whole period Of the next Congress-
existence, which will reach until
March, 1921. .
Chairman Hays Of the republican ma
tional committee has just said in an
interview:
"What we need is not less politics,
but more attention to politics. I have
no use for the man who is either too
busy or too good to take part in poll
tics. He has no just complaint to
make whatever happens. He is riding
on another's ticket. have no use for
these smug individuals who sit with
their hands folded and expect every
thing to be right while they assume no
part of the burden. We can have good
candidates and consequently better
government if we are all interested in
politics"
In other words, not less politics, but
more politics. Mr.. Hays is right; and
what he says is applicable all around.
Democrats as we'll as republicans may
find profit in it. In a government by
party control, such as our government,
public interests suffer whom parties
are neglected. The best safeguard Is
in keeping party spirit in party affairs
as keen and high as possible.

the conduct Of public affairs, and pro-
duce strong protests and reaction.
Not one Of these movements will fail
to show Indebtedness to the Mitchell
movement, which had warrant for its
existence, and fowered in benefits for
the town. These will appear the plain
or as time passes; and other benefits
will be fashioned on them.
Undiscouraged by his experience, Mr..
Mitchell, full Of purpose and action,
turned to a new field. The war beck
oned, and he went for a soldier. He
selected work Of great danger, and
perished in training for fighting in the
air.
But here, too, while In one sense de-
feated, he won. He had testified to a
high purpose, and his example will In
spire others.
This, then, appraised In the proper
way, was a successful career. II did
not extend over many years, nor be-
complish all designed. But IL began
in character, Its course was marked by
character, and it closed in honor. Mr..
Mitchell deserved the remembrance
that will be his wherever character and
courage are cherished.

Bastile Day.

Preparations are making for an OBJ
servance Of Bastile day in this city
and indeed throughout tho United
States. All ships and naval stations
will be dressed for the occasion and
salutes will be fred. In Washington
flags will be displayed and sermons
preached in many churches. In France
the members of our expeditionary force
not actually engaged on the front limo
will be given a holiday. .-
1t is most suitable that in every pos.
sible way the American people show
their appreciation Of the French na-
tional day. In the war in which we
have now Joined the attitude and serv-
ice of the French have been superb.
They have shown the spirit Of deter
mination that animated the American
colonists in 1776. They have borne for
nearly four years the brunt Of the
fighting. They have sacrificed terribly
in order that tho ruthless invaders
should be stopped and his power for
evil in the world destroyed.
1t behooves every American next
Sunday to contribute in some degree
to the national observance Of the day
which celebrates the first tangible
stroke of The French peoples effort at
liberty. Our interests are now allied
directly. ovr men are fighting shoul-
der to shoulder, our flags float to-
gether on the field of battle. France
has observed our national holiday with
ceremony and We should now do the
same for hers. Let Bastile day be-
come an American anniversary.

Sanitary Conditions.

Action by the Virginia state corpora
ton commission in the matter Of Alex
andria's water supply is calculated to
bring about an Improvement in the
sanitary situation there, though not
Immediately. It has ordered the water
company to install filtration system.
The installation Of this plant will nat
urally take some time and meanwhile
the sanitary conditions are serious,
but are in hand for improvement. This
matter Of the water supply should have
been adjusted long ago. Washington
has felt anxious for some time re-
spccting the possibility Of disease out
breaks in the neighboring city, but, of
course, has been powerless to act.
Now the intervention Of the govern
ment, in protection of the health Of
the troops stationed near Alexandra,
has brought results that, it is hoped,
will be effective in curing the sanitary
ills to which the Virginia community
is exposed.

A Recess and Revenue.

There is a renewal in Congress Of
the "drive" for recess. The propo-
sition is to postpone everything after
the passage of the wire bill until Au-
gust, and then upon the reassembling
of Congress to complete all unfinished
business,
If a recess is taken the most impor-
tant thing before Congress when it re-
assemblies will be the new revenue
measure. That should, and probably
will, be promptly reported, and should,
and probably will, have the right Of
way.
The House ways and means commit
tee has planned to devote month to
the drafting Of that measure-time
sufficient for good work, and the di-
gesting Of the information the COM
mittee has collected from business and
other sources.
But, however well the committee may
do its work, what it does will be SUBJ
ject to review by both House and Sen
ate, and will be reviewed in detail.
Such assessments as are protested by
those assessed will be appealed to the
open chambers of the two houses, and
contests made there.
This will take time. The measure
may embrace large number Of items.
Suggestions from the Treasury Depart
ment alone cover many things, and if
adopted, even in part, will open up q
broad field for controversy.
No mistake should be made about
this. Revenue for the conduct Of the
war is imperative. Important as some
other matters are, none is as important
as supporting the government in the
present crisis. Other matters, there
fore, if, and when, brought into col
lision with this matter must give way.
How long it will take to put the reve-
nue. measure into shape for the Presi-
dents signature is but guesswork. One
guesser may say weeks, another
months Of course, when open debate
begins "drive" will be made to hurry
things along. Campaigns in which
senators and representatives are per-
sonally interested will be in progress.
Election day will be pointed to. "Let's
put this bill through and go home
where other business awaits u.s." will
be the nudge.
Business now postponed, as one may
see, will be at a disadvantage when
Congress reassembles. When the ses-
sion is resumed the time will be claim
ed for one particular piece Of business.
The session will be for revenue only,
SO to say, with election day coming
up and coming like race horse.
