culates imports at the deprecated
rates Of exchange on Europe, and

TAKE THE SLOW TRAIN.
Many Pleasures Missed by the TraV-

To THE SUN AND New YoRR HERALD .;
The quotation you made On Saturday
from Rudyard Klpling's latest book re-
calls some of the amenities derived
from a trip by rail like that revealed
in his account OF the Canadian line.
When l was in Chicago in 1902 l
chose the tourist train in preference TO
the express. The former took six days
to Los Angeles, the latter four.
Such an easy going train trip is in
tcDsely interesting. There is no hurry.

accumulate more instruction Of the
country's varied charms than by the
express.
For instance. It was not out Of order
for the train to stop from ten 10 fifteen
minutes just to take on water for the
locomotive. BY me these stops, some
times away from tho station, were al
ways Hailed with delight, I could leave
the car and examine the grounds fora,
then could hastily sketch the scene II

press to pass, Just short distance be-
fore the train got to Albuquerque. This
was too grand for any artist 10 paint,
but II is still in my memory's eye,
Now. the passengers on the express
missed this entirely.
Many a time the train slowed up

ure became a mere legal formality
when II wns presented to the Ottoman
Parliament.
The chief value OF the concession
Is In the mineral rights, the railroads
merely serving TO bring the products
Of the mines to the markets The
present interest In the concession,
however, lies In the fact that between
Mosul, on the Tlgris. and Sulelmanla,
near the Persian border, the road
would pass through the oil land Sec
ton known as the Mosul oil fields.
This Is the part Of the Mesopotamian
region In which there has been re-
Gently a keen international competl-
tion and where 1t Is said geologists
from almost every European country
have been making surveys for oil,
According to the statement OF Rear
Admiral CHESTER, "a good part OF this
area lies within the limits OF the
American concession"
Plans were well advanced for TAX
Ing advantage Of this concession when
the war broke out. Rear Admiral
CHllsTER has just laid this American
interest In the Near East before the
Navy Department as representing q
source Of oil supply for United States
vessels In the East and before the
State Department as being IN Ameri-

Two Good Men and Two Parties.

1t takes no prophet to know that
30 far as concerns the Republican can
didate and the Democratic candidate
for Governor of New York, the prl-
maries are as good as over, with the
nominations settled. Judge NATHAN
l.. MILLER will head the Republican
State ticket and Governor SMITH the
Democratic State ticket.
OF these two candidates recon-
mended by their State conventions
and soon to be nominated at the pri-
maries, it is to be said alike that they
are exemplary men and fine citizens.
They are experienced public officers.
They are tested administrators and
executives. Governor SMITH has been
learning the business Of the State in
the executive chamber itself. Judge
MILLER learned it, and learned 1t
thoroughly, in the Office of Comptrol-
Ter, so intimately related with the
interests, the affairs and the work
ings of the whole State Government.
Judge MILLER has as well splendid
record on the bench and in private
practice. He Is admired for his learn
ing, respected for his character and
valued for his great ability.
D.. Governor SMITH, by his long years
Of contact with the public before he
attained high office, gained its conf
dence and good will. In Albany he
has not lost any Old friends; he has
made new friends.
AL SMITH has made good Gov
ernor and would again make good
Governor If elected. Judge MILLER
has the stuff in him to make good
Governor and has had the training to
at him for the distinguished Office.
But beyond the qualifications Of the
two candidates stand the two parties.
The one, the Republican party, bit
tress of strength to its Governor; the
other, the Democratic party, damn
tng and demorallzing influence with
its Governor.
In respect Of these considerations
Judge MILLER, the Republican candl-
date, has the advantage over AL
SMITH. Moreover, Judge MILLER is
the candidate of the winning party
this year.

American Rights In Near East
OH Fields.

The representations made by our
Government to Great Britain and
France asking equal opportunities for
citizens Of this country In the devel-
opment Of the oil fields Of MesOpo-
tamia recall the fact that the United
States has an interest in that part
of the world secured before the war
largely through the influence of Rear
Admiral CoLBY NJ. CHESTER of the
United States Navy. This interest,
which is represented by one of the
largest concessions ever granted by
the Ottoman Government, attracted
an unusual amount Of International
l,attention at the time it was obtained
because 1t was bitterly fought by the
Germans. who were then In the as
tendency in Turkey.
Rear Admiral CHESTER, who had
an extensive acquaintance with the
Near East, was detailed in 1908 by
the Navy Department to go to Tur-
key and act under a commission given
to him by the New York Chamber of
Commerce and Board Of Trade and
Transportation to advise commercial
bodies Of this country regarding the
development Of American commerce
in the Near East This mission was
similar to the one undertaken about
the same time by Admiral Lord
CHARLES BEREsFoRD in behalf Of The
Associated British Boards Of Trade
and under the support of the Brit
lsh Government.
On the recommendation of Rear
Admiral CHESTER after his arrival at
Constantinople an agent Of American
interests was sent to Turkey. This
agent succeeded in negotiating a con-
1 yentiou with the Ottoman Govern
ment for the construction of 1900
miles of railroad extending through
Asia Minor from the Mediterranean
to the Persian Gulf, and including all
the mineral rights in zone forty
kilometers vide along the line of the
railway. A party Of twelve Turkish
officials was brought to America by
the Government in the interest Of this
concession, and one Of the purposes
of the visit of the Assistant Secretary
Of state to CoAstantinople in 1910
was to foster this American enter
prise The intereSt shown By this
Government became O strong factor
IN securing the acceptance Of the con-
Sention by the Ottoman Government.

entrenched German interests at Con-

On Tuesday the New York State
Department Of Health gave notice that

that the increase In the population of

was the smallest in the history Of the
State-two pieces Of pews seemingly
unrelated, but alike in that they con-
gey the same message Of the imp0r-
tanee of the public health service In
rural districts.
The clinic is one of a serleS--twO
others have already been held in Llv-
ingston and Chenango counties-mOd-
elled after the plan Of the famous
Mayo clinic and conducted by the
State Department Of Health In con-
junction with the Department of Edu-
cation, the Hospital Commission, the
Commission for Feeble Minded, the
State Charities Aid Association and
the American Red Cross. 1t will be
attended by specialists in various
branches of medicine and the physl-
clans of Orange county will have an
opportunity to consult with them re-
garding Hobscure and difficult cases.
These clinics provide assistance in
diagnosis now available only to resi-
dents of the larger cities and bring
the most modern medical facilities to
the rural population.
Georgia supplies the demOnstra-
ton of the practical value Of such
an extension of the public health ser
vice to the rural population. Like
other agricultural States Georgia has
been suffering from the movement
which has been drawing labor from
the farms to manufacturing centres
where wages are high, movement
which has affected white men as well
as negroes, and which is reflected in
the census figures. A shortage OF
labor and production might reason
ably be apprehended If other condI.
tions remained the same.
Here is where public health service
can help. II has been estimated that

"Afrlca for the Africans" !"

Mr.. MARCUS GARvEY, president gem
eral Of the Universal Negro Improve
ment Association, is ambitious for his
race and at once a radical and con-
servative. He wants Africa for the
Africans and he tries to fill the eyes
of his brethren with picture of the
Dark Continent scraped free OF all
white patches. But he would not start
the big doings at once. In twenty
years, he says, there will be another
world war, and then the negroes can
rise in Africa and seize the whole
land, compensating Europe for the
improvements she has made.
This great programme seems to be
the Garvey idea Of what the negro
needs. He speaks rather slightingly
of Tuskegee, which confines its ambi-
tIons to the industrial education Of
the American negro, while he himself
Is out for manhood rights for the
race. We suspect that Mr.. GARvEY
will not stir the colored people of this
country with plans for military cam
paign ON the other side Of the world
in 1910. They are interested in the
growing opportunities Of 1920, in the
splendid wages which the negro arti-
san has been making, particularly
since his recent exodus to the North,
and in educating their children.
Maybe Mr.. CARNEY has been reading
RIDER HAGGARD and watching Mr.. De
VALERA. The novelist might create
a fever for an African revolution and
the Irish statesman might suggest, by
his own methods, the ease Of conduct
ing a national political overturn By
absentee enthusiasm. Perhaps Mr..
GARvEY will he able to rouse the Jun
gle by mail. But not the negro of the
North. Better fifty years of Fifty-third
street than a cycle of the Congo.

The report Of the Woman's Com.
mlttee Of the Council of National De-
fence Is described as an intimate
official and first hand recital" of the
accomplishments Of the organized
women Of America in the world war,
While the intimacy Of the report Is
open to question 1t is certainly a re-
markable tribute TO the patriotism of
American women.
The mere man who has only vaguely
heard tell Of the multifarious activi-
ties Of the Woman's Committee will
be astounded to learn how much was
actually accomplished. The registra-
tIon of four million women, the inval-
liable assistance they gave to the Food
Administration, the general campaign
OF education, health and recreation
which was undertaken by the Woman's
Committee contributed very largely tC
the preservation Of good morale on
the home sector during a peculiarly
abnormal period of our history.
The record Of the State divisions is
perhaps the most interesting part Of
the story. The WOman's Committee
in Washington could only issue gen
eral orders telling each State what
the detectives were. The manner in
" Which each State division reached
those detectives is the real history OF
the effort put forth by American
women. Their ingenuity, courage and
persistence cannot be dlmmed even by
the depressing pages of an official
pamphlet.
