AT RAICRcAD CROSSINGS.

Out in Indianapolis where 8 num- ber of accidents have occurred at rail- road crossings .a member. of the board of works declares "The time has come for a chanEe on. the, part. of the rail- road companies, Old broken down men cannot efficiently guard the lives Of the public. in these days of rapid traffic. When q man has given his best service to railroad he should be retired on q pension. out men whose eyesight.l Is failing and who have lost their DhTsical alertnesss should not be placed in charge of dangerous rail road crossings"
 Well that sounds good. and it is to large extent true. but why should he think. fiat the change should be made on the part of the railroad companies alone? It isn't the way in which the railroads use sthe, crossings that cause tho accidents but the disregard on tho part of the highway users to a large degree of the. danger that ex- ists there. It would therefore appear That awhile every possible protection should be given 'by the railroads at 9-Ae44 -4AtNi s9NN l-Olist liiCIS IS d TSSpOn- sibility that rests upon others "in these days of rapid, traffic"
 The fact has been demonstrated in other places that it doesn't make much difference what safety measures are provided there are, those drivers who are determined not to respect item. There are those who have driven their cars through lowered gates and there are those who have knocked down and Killed crossing tenders because they were. unwilling to stop their car or could not because of the speed that was being made. There is no question but what ef- fcient tenders are required but sight is too often lost of the fact that due respect is not paid to crossing dan gers. Were more users of highways accustomed. to respect the warnings and inclined to thus insure their pro- lection there would be less crossing fatalities. It is useless for rapid traf- iic to try to dispute the way with a locomotive CT to place all the blame or crossing tenders.

 "A little love affair connected with the growth of this city is interesting. One of the Spanish party, Miguel Dias, having gotten into difficulty with an officer. severely wounding him in coffa- bat, fled to escape. punishment Find ing shelter in an Indian village and be- ing received with muck eordiality and hospitality, he in return gave his heart to the young Caguisas who was then governing the tribe. His protestations met with favor, and the young Span iard found himself the eorsort of a queen of no: mean accomplishments But he soon wearied of his environ ment and sighed for his old cornpan- ions. The queen. seeing his discontent and fearing to lose him, gave him the secret of her vast wealth and. loading him with the precious metal, sent him back to the Spaniards to induce them to return with him and settle in her country.

Germany are engaged in bitter con- troversy on boundary questions, American Ked Cross workers have been delivering their supplies under the unfriendly supervision of long line of German observation balloons. These supplies, unloaded on the Polish side of the frontier, were for Polish refugees who have passed and are still passing into Poland from Silesia.
 When the boundary question first became acute, Germany started to make waflike show along the iron tier. There were German troops en- gagged in military rnanoeuvres just across the river from Gredziec;; there were many trainloads Of field artillery ostentations1y brought to the frontier and planted in hidden emplacements behind the hills; there were scores of airplanes and observation balloons the latter on display every morning, bob ping at their slender strings. By night also there was a continual hustle on the German side of the line--signaiins and night, manoeuvres The frontier which here lies along the little. River Byrrlies bristled with armed guards and pickets It was the show window of wars prelifninaries. designed to i'm press the people across the border with Germany's. newer and earnestness.
 The Polish authorities estimate that s5oe0 Polish refugees have fled across from German occupied Silesia since Aug. IS. At first the Germans made no objection to this wholesale exodus; rather, they favored it. But now they
 have strengthened their guard at the frontier and shoot. on sight anyone at tempting to cross the line in either di- ] rection. Yet from 800 to TOO refugees are crossing the horder into Poland every 24 hours, mostly at night

Mir. rditor: I certainly agree with our old friend Charley Wl.lians that a lot of oiatory has been wasted on the league of nations. but we disa- g:'-n as t.. who was the most wasteful ia cheap talk, It certainly was cet Senator 1 odge, Senator Johnson.

Of course they have not visited any time or words as tine end has justified the means and in few days. perhaps before this letter appears the United States sen ate will have passed the league of nations covenant with the ratified peace treaty in just the exact manner that the gentlemen mentioned above have desired to have it ratified. The man that spilled cheap talk all over America. calling United States sena- tors who dared do their duty in up holding the constitution Of the United States all kinds of names who even stopped to Billingsgate slang to try and work up enthusiasm from his chosen audience is the one who vast cd oratory.
 Senator Williams of Mississippi Who IS so Wiling to DOW to the auto cratic lash from Washington that he has made a public nuisance of him self is another who has spilled q lot of oratorical froth and now finds himself with a very small minority. Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska. the chosen one from the White House, who has Topped almost as many times as some of his superiors has also smiled considerable foam "E l !

IDLE MINERS, COUNTRY SUFFERS

The country will. regard with ap- proval the action of the federal fuel administrator in summoning both factions and giving them to under stand that an early truce is desired in the coal trouble. This doesn't mean that any haphazard solution should be reached but 1t means that all the unnecessary delays should be elimi- mated, that those who can settle it and bring about the resumption of coal production equal to the demands should apply themselves to their task and bring about an adjustment with the least possible delay.
 There can be no Quibbiing over the fact that it Is time to resume coal production on. normal scale, It is perfectly evident that the order of the federal court to call off the strike or- der did not direct the men to go back to work. It is nevertheless perfectly evident that those who are persisting in striking. those who have returned t0 the miners and gone out again and Ithose who are encouraging the miners Ito stop. work or not to return to work arc doing so in violation of the Lever law,
 The government has not attempted as vet to proceed along this line but it may become necessary or it may be- come necessary for the government to take over the coal mines and operate t,lem, but with both sides agreeing to negotiate it is time that the leaders of the miners at least gave enough. con sideration to the country. under their plea of being. Americans, to urge the men to go back to their work with the understanding that whatever wage scale is agreed upon it will be effec- tive from the time they go back.
 In view of the existing agreement, the fact that higher coal prices are not wanted as well as several other de- tails of the dispute. it is impossible to tell when an agreement can be reached and have it fair to all, but un- til it is done the miners ought to be producing instead of idlins and threat ening. es

STORIES OF THE WAR
Still Finding BoIshexik Victims.
(By The Associated Press

koy uS ASSOClaleQ Press. 14---
 Bodies of victims executed by the bolsheyid during their occupancy of Kiev are constantly being found. and the first estimate of 4,o00 is evidently much below the real total.
 Three Irish girls, Eva. May and Eilesen Healy. who lived in Kiev dur ing the last six months of bolsheyist rule, gave the correspondent an ac- count of bolshevik operations.
 The autocracy of the Romaneffs, with all it's evils" they said, was paradise compared to the bosheyik hades we have been living through.
 The last few months, when the ma Jority of the members of the Kiey committee of public safety were always under the influence of drink or drugs. transcended all conceivable awfulness. After every meeting huge heaps of empty spirit and wine bottles and scores of morphine and cocaine bottles were found
 The members of the chief of the of the committee sat before5 cage with wooden bars reaching to the ceiling. The prisoners were marched, through the cage to be. reviled and sentenced to death.

 But the man with children needs a shelter for his family, in fact his need is even more desperate than the man without children, We hope that large number of houses that are to be rented will fall into the hands of people who used to be children once upon a time them selves If more of these people ac- quire property, the children will be given a chance.

 If Russia can overthrow the Bol- sheviki in armed conflict or by po- Iitical means, then it will be plain that they represent the Russian ma jority and have authority from the people, however corrupt they may be.

 From no people do the men and wo- men of Ireland and of Irish descent receive so much of respect, reward and genuine affection as they do from the people of the Undted States.

DEALING WITH MARTENS.

while this country is engaged in rounding up and deporting the radi- calls of the country it seems irnpos- sible for it to overlook the one who ap- pears to be the leader for a certain humber who are directing their ef- forts toward the overthrow of this as well as all other governments.
 Though he has not been recognized by this government. L. c. A. K. Mar tens has been in this country for some little time representing himself to be the ambassador Of the bolshevik gov srnment in Russia. He appears to have all the money he requires and rom the evidence which is possessed against him and the testimony he has given before the Lusk committee he has been engaged in the work of stir r.(s up revolution in this country the same as took place in Russia. He admits being an emissary of I.enine. that bolshevism Is based upon terror ism and that his life is bound up in the Russian revolution. The appeals that have been made 10 the working 5nen of the country are in keeping with the policies pursued in Russia and cannot fail to be regarded as ere iting unrest of a dangerous character n this country.
 And yet Martens seems to think that he has right to come here and rnEsSe in this service for Lenine. It Is apparent that the authorities are got done win him yet as he is to be aestioned further next week. but while others who may or may not be work lng under his leadership are being cor 'rziied for deportation he should not De overlooked. We are under no ob1i- -' sations to his country or him.

ACT OF RESENTMENT.

The action of the members of the American Legion in a Minnesota town h removing ex-Congressman Lundeen rom the hall where he was to speak against the league of nations and 'ociEang him in refrigerator car of a ieparting train seemed too much in geeping with the attitude of the peo- pie in an Oklahoma town who refused 10 hear Senator Reed of Missouri on The same subject, but in the latter ease 1t was not the subject or the opinion of the speaker thereon that aroused so much resentment as the sourse that he had been following.
 The former congressman was sent to Washington on a loyalist ticket. He beat out his predecessor. who had been opposing the war legislation in con- gress because the people relied on him o stand for the best interests of the country. No sooner however, did he lrsach Washington, than he began ally tmg himself with the obstructionists. tt was therefore plainly evident that he was misrepresenting instead of Representing his constituents and il ran be appreciated what effect such would have upon those who had ex- pected htm 10 live up to his platform He was a contributor to Viereck's Weekly and on his trip to Europe was denied permission because of his at- fitude to visit the British lines.
