RUSSIAN WINTER TRAVEL
Suits the Natives All Right But Hard
on Americans. ,...


An American who had spent four
days and nights in a poultry car on a
freight train held up by Dakota bliz-
zard or had been trapped by a snow
storm for an equal length Of time in
travelling monkey cage, would have
some idea of experiences sometimes
encountered this winter by American
relief workers and other travellers
from Riga to Moscow; writes cores
pondent. 49,. ~
: In the summer, an :"eypress" sche-
dule averaging about 4S hours is
maintained between Riga and the
Russian capital but in the winter
when snow drifts into the cuts and
zero cold makes it almost impossible to
keep up steam in the leaky, wood
burning locomotives the trip runs
anywhere from 70 to 100 hours most
Of which are spent not in moving but
in waiting to move.
One or two through" cars, general
ly without upholstery, but reasonably
clean, at the start of the voyage, are
operated y on the bi-weekly trains.
They are compartment cars, having a
dozen or so little. rooms with sleeping
hunks for four or two persons. e. ...
On one recent trip. the average was
seven persons to each four bunk COM
partment in which its occupants cook
ed, ate and slept all the way, to. MOS
COW. There Is, Of course, no dining
car and hot food is difficult to obtain
at any of the Russian stations.
Russian cars, in the winter are
practically alright. The only way to
open window is to break one. After
q few hours, therefore, the general at
mosphere resembles that of a monkey
cage whose keeper forgot to clean 1t
since the winter previous and into
this is poured smoke from pipes. Gig
arettes, cigars, fumes from aicohoi
stoves and from sputtering candles.
There are no electric lights nor oil
lamps and the travellers bring their
own candles. ..
AS each traveller brings his own
bedding and food for the trip, in ad-
dition to some supplies for use within
RUSSIA and his ordinary travelling lug
gage, the corridors and compartments
of the cars are so cluttered that the
passengers have to. stand edgewise TO
move from place to place. Fat men
with large stomachs pry themselves
into their compartments and stay
there.
The hunks for, sleeping are six feet
long and three feet wide. With seven
in one compartment three OF the
hunks are occupied by two persons
each.
Crowding to this extent, however,
is not common. When it does occur,
women passengers faint, windows are
broken open and the atmosphere re-
lieved generally about the third night
out

The Reason
(EDITORIAL.)

When the news went forth last New
Years day that Senator Penrose, Penn
sylvania boss, had died, it chanced that
Senator Miles Poindexter was in Seattle.
On seeing the Penrose headline he
remarked to a political friend, Il was
one of the six men who controlled the
senate of the United States; now ! am
one of the five"
And there you have the evolution Of
Miles Poindexter in a nutshell.
Once the fiery, progressive peoples
leader; the determined, courageous foe
of Cannonism; the man who looked to
the great rank and file Of the voters Of
the state of Washington for his inspira-
ton and his program.
Later the confidante of Lodge and
Penrose; one who fancied, at least, he
was member of the select senate-ruling
clique, if he was not SO in fact; the poll
tician who forgot the folks back home
and at last gained all his ideas and ideals
from the star chamber deliberations Of
stale, ultra-reactionary Old Men of the
capitol and from captains of finance and
industry who share their council table on
matters of public concern.
That is the change which IL years
has produced in the senator. That is
the reason for yesterdays amazing vote.
