BALLOON OBSERVATION

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 Back from
the German front line trenches for
distance Of possibly five miles hardly
train moves, or my body of troops
appear, or trenches begun without
being observed by a pair of keen
Yankee eyes in an enormous obserya-
ton ballOn just behind the allied
front. There are many of these en-
ormus balloons, all connected with the
ground by telephon and all doing
their duty.
Every movement, every activity, is
registered until a complete schedule
of the routine of the enemy Is made
up. Any departure is suspicious. A
train running late, or with more cars
than usual. or fewer cars than usual
has meaning. Men in the trenches
being relieved too frequently, or new
roads or emplacements appearing
give the big hint that Heinie is up to

A GREAT MAN
is DEAD


The country loses in Augustus Pea
body Gardner a man whom il could i'll
afford to spare. AS a representative
in congress from Massachusetts, he
was serving his seventh term at Wash.
ington when he resigned to become
an officer in the national army, n
position for which his deep study of
military matters had qualified him.
In the natural order of things, Mass
achusetts In time would undoubtedly
have elected him to the United States
senate, for of all its representative he
stood at the front and Massachusetts
has tradition of electing its best
men to the upper house and of main
tanning them there once IL elects them.
Nor needs the senate have been the
limit of Maj. Gardeners ambitions for
all who knew him regarded him as the
kind OF man OF whom the American
people make presidents.
AS one of the admitted leaders OF
the republican party, a man whose
Americanism was always first, republi-
cans will feel his loss deeply, know
ing, too, that democrats share with
them their grief for the death Of a

THE UNITED STATES
is A NATION

The United States supreme court
evidently found no difficulty in reach
ing a conclusion on the constitutions
atty of the selectiye draft act. The
justices are all agreed. Chief Justice
White makes only brief statement
in expressing their unanimous opin-
ion.
The power OF congress TO declare
war includes the power TO compel
citizens to render military service
both at home and abroad. The act of
1887 creating a national government
with essential sovereign powers of ma
tionality did not at the same time rem
der that government powerless 10 as
sert itself in the fullest measure
against either domestic revolt or for
eign aggression.
These are obvious principles of con
stitutional Interpretation. Yet their
application had been invoked by ap'
peals in no less than thirteen cases
arising in various parts of the cOun
try. Most of them were the work OF
peace.at-any-price persons and chronic
mischiefmakers laboring consciously
or unconsciously in the interests OF
the enemy Germany. But there was
not lacking the support of publicist
or two of distinction like Hannis Tay-
lor, who managed to lose all sense
OF the fundamentals in a bubble Of
words over the militia provisions of
the constitution.
1t was thus rendered necessary that
the supreme judicial authority should
once more make announcement
whether the United States is or is
not nation. It's judgment on that
issue is again clear and unhesitating
and without a word of modification.
The United States is n nation and has
all the warmaking power of ma
tion.-New York World.

OUR ALLIES
PURCHASES HERE

Most of the money advanced by the
United States to the hatioJs in Europe
engaged in war with Germany is spent
in this country for the products OF our
farms, mines, and factories.
Under the arrangement made by the
Secretary of the Treasury and ap.
proved by the President these allied
governments communicate their re
Quirements for materials and supplies
to United States commission through
their own designated purchasing
agents in this country and the com
mission then renders its best efforts 10
obtain advantageous terms which are
submitted to the purchasing agents.
BY these means competitive bidding
against the other allies and against
the United States is avoided and the
same terms and the same treatment
our own government receives is &C
corded to our allies.
1t is expressly stipulated that no OBJ.
legation or liability upon the United
States shall be created by this ar.
rangement Our government is sim
ply lending its assistance to our allies
in the spending here of the money we
loaned them. The protection thus
granted them is deserved, for they are
doing the work which. if they do not
do, must be done by America at the
expense of American lives and Ameri
can money.
