HOW He WAS EMPLOYED
Coiersd Man Explained to General
Clarke Exactly His Position
With the Railroad.

An all too fast disappearing genera
ton of older railroad executives are
accustomed when recalling Gen. James
G. Clarke, for many years before his
death president of the Illinois Central,
to speak Of his stately courtliness, the
warm Southern tinge of his hospitality
and the depth and breadth Of his per-
sonal charity,which ever kept him in
lean purse. But the general, says the
Wall Street Journal, was also a live
railroader, no respecter of mere GUS
tom, and we'll to the fore in the era
which transferred Chicago from
Lake Michigan port to the largest in
terror continental city In the world.
General Clarke was found of telling
how In the postbellum days an order
was issued from the head Office of one
Southern system that no more per-
Sonal Wallets should be carried on the
pay rolls, and that the name of the
bureau of which it was port should be
painted on the door of each room.
Shortly after the president, on a
personal inspection tour, opened the
door of very small room and con-
fronted an ancient negro of eminently
respectable and respectful mien. Said
the president:
"You black rebel, are you still here?"
II shoa is" he bowed.
"And what pay roll are you on?"

Washington american troops,
whether they are of the army, ma
rineS, or navy, are doing in Europe
just what is expected of them" That
is a composite expression of nearly
every man in congress who has had
anything to say about the glorious
work of United States soldiers on the
western battle front. This sentiment
emanates not only from senators and
representatives, but from all other
Americans who have eagerly watched
the reports from the greatest war in
the world, ever since American troops
have been engaged.
The impression prevails among Of
fcials of the national capital, both in
the executive departments and in con-
gress, that the war is to be settled
on the western front and is to be set
tied largely by American troops. No
the United States government not on
ly to organize, arm and equip the
troops, but to send them to France and
Belgium In time to stem the tide OF
the German attack and in the end hurl
back the Hun and force him to re-
treat into Germany.
There have been many slogans
about what will win the war, but pos
sibly we Americans can rest upon this
one: America will win the war;

ends and that Of the states begins. He
also made significant observation of
q fact which has begun to be consid-

eral government encroaches year af-
ter year spon the rights of the states.
EVERY foreign commentator" said
the New Mexico senator, "in discuss

Secretary Lane wrote letter, and
like n great many of his public utter
ances If contained some mighty good
ideas, particularly with reference to
taking care of wounded and injured
soldiers when they return from the
war. The secretary sent copies to a
great many people and probably to all
the senators. At least half dozen
different senator's tried to get the let
ter printed in the Record. But it hap
pened to be one of those days when
the guardians of the Record" were on
hand and were determined to saHe
money on print paper by not allowing
eXtraneous matter to be printed in
this publication of congressional pro-
ceedings. First one senator and then
another tried 1t, but each was bowled
over on objection from either Mark
Smith of Arizona or Reed Smoot of
Utah. OF course it was only a question
of time until the letter found It's way
into the Record, for it was incorporated

liberal usage which allows anybody to
put almost anything he wishes into

Fall on Federal Capitalization.
BY ARTHUR w. DUNN.

Washington.-Mexic is still q prob
lem with the American government
and 1t may become a still greater
problem as the war progresses. Ever
since Woodrow Wilson became presi-
dent Of the United States he has made
every possible effort to conciliate Car
rama, and what Carranza represents,
with view Of establishing peace and
rehabiHtating Mexico in the interests
of all the people of that distracted
country. nvery effort of this kind has
been met with snubs, diplomatic and
military; The Carranza government
has been antagonistic to the Wilson
government.
Now GENES a very serious condition.
The Fampieo oil fields and supply are
one OF the absolute necessities for the
allies. Ever since the appearance of
the submarines on the Atlantic coast
there has been a lurking suspicion
that the Germans have base in Mex
leo and that possibly the Carranza
government has betrayed civilization
by afforaing asylum to the Huns con-
trary 30 the Jaws of neutrality. With
three-suarters of a million troops in
Europe and the possibility of as many
more being sent there within the next
year, ii is well understood that the
United States does not want, nay, will
avoid In every possible way conflict
with another. country. And yet it is
possible that the Mexican situation
may bring about a condition Of affairs
which will necessitate Intervention
that wiz secure the Tampico oil and
will at the same time make 1t impos-
sible for German submarines to oper-
ate from Mexico against the shipping
of the United States.

Illinois is very much ia favor of cur
falling debate in the senate. Although
he is engaged much Of the rims In max
ing speeches throughout the country
on subjects pertaining to war work, he
stopped long enough in the senate the
other day to deliver a number of inter-
esting observations.
''There are orators in this body, but
there are no orations," was one OF his
observations. He went ON to say that
if Clay, Webster and Calhoun should
deliver some of their philosophic dis
QUESTIONS in the senate at the present
time even the pages would net remain
to listen. During the debate ON the
resolution declaring war or Germany
there was not one Grafton delivered in
the senate that WEI ever be quoted by
historians as a model of eioQuence or
as an inspiration of patriotism" was
another remark by Lewis.

Neutrality-suspicious. of the most diff
cult tasks in connection with the war
is to make the American people realize
that they must do certain things. Not
all the people are yet convinced that
they must save food. There is less
waste in the households, but people
are not eating less to any great extent,
and it Is only where the food admins
tration has been insistent that there
has been saving in -four, meats and
other articles necessary to win the
war. And this saving has not extend
ed to an households. The food admin
istration desires to impress upon all
the people in every part of the country
the necessity of saving food.
Now comes the fuel administration
pointing out that saving Of 60OO0,OOO
tons of coal is the only possible avenue
of escape from national disaster in the
coming winter. The fuel administra-
ton mentions a number of instances
of fuel saving through public utilities
and by big concerns. The administra-
ton will take care Of that itself. But
1t makes an especial appeal to every
American citizen to practice economy

The contest between secrecy and
ernmental affairs has been going on
for half century and will continue
half a century more, and no matter
what rules, regulations, or laws are
will prevail. Secrecy will control, no
matter how much of demand there
may be for publicity. 1t Is true that
the debates in congress are public
strenuous but losing fight to have the
debates on treaties in public, follow
ing the suggestion of President Will
son in one of his addresses that there
should be no more secret diplomacy.
But 1t will all come back to the
same starting point whenever men in
charge of governmental affairs begin
to formulate legislation or to negotiate
treaties. The conferences will be Sc
cret and the agreements will be made
in secret Even if an attempt Is made
to have the commissioners of peace at
the end of the great war hold open
sessions, it will be found that a few
leaders of various nations will have
their secret conferences and conclaves
and reach an agreement as to what is
to be done in the open sessions. That
is about what happens In regard to
legislation.
