Italy must be thoroughly aware by this time that the ailies do not in- tend to leave it to its own resources to fisht back the combined offorts of the Germans and the Austrians. Al- ready has General Cadorna mad: a stand at. the Tagliamento river while he has not overlooked ample pro- visiops for meeting the drive which the cnemy is preparing to. make through the Treintino region, but at the same time he has also received important reinforcements from hoth the British and French in men and probably guns and ammunition. Be- who has given the metrépolis an ad- ministration worthy of endorsement, while it is doubtful whether the strength of the socialist candidate will affect seriously, if at all, the suport which the Tammany cindidate can rely upon. Another elément of uncer- tainty this vear is that which con- cerns the question of Americanism which has featured the entire cam- Falgn. THere is no question but what May- or Mitchel, because of the record which he has made and hecause of the patriotic stand which he has taken shouid be returned to office. Tt {s for the hést interests of Néw York that he should, ang if that gets proper con- sideration be will be. Py BETTER PREVENTION METHODS. Greatly to be deplored was that fire which swept through the Salvation Army rescue mission at Paterson Sun- day, causing the dedth of 19 inmates and injurfes to 33 others. It 1a, ho ever, one of those cases where a po erful lesson has been taught concern- ink the necessity of surrounding such places with all preécautions against that very contingeney. While thée building appears to have Leen equipped with firé. escapes and there is nothing to show hut what the Jdoors opened outward and that the. old mon who weré thére were therefore not trapped by nedligence of these things, it is. apparént that while certain regulations were lived up to concerning the safety of the in- mates there wére others which ‘weré éntirely ignored. This is shown by the fact that the mission used a réom or a building ad- joining the home as a storage place for papers and magazines. It was in thig part of the establishment where the firé started and where there was such fuel for the flames that it Mad an opportunity to get under great headway, s0 that it is apparent that too little attention was givén by those THEY FOUND A BARGAIN little Clond bridé ran to the door when the bell rang. “Did you,” she said to the person at the door, “bring that georgette blouse with the beading that you phoned about, dear? T want to,put it on now hefore Jo- seph's Cousin Nellie arrives, because Annie scorched the back of my best one pressing it this mornins.” The person at the door had a posi- tive manner and _thoughtful frown. She came in, handed the little blond tride a small pasteboard box and feli wearily upon the davenport. ‘Whenever you wear that blouse, Filizabeth,” she sald impressively, “I want you to consider well what it cost me—"" You said $7.98 marked down from $12; here it is, dear,” said the bride. “Consider well what it has cost me, Elizabeth, young woman, repeated the positive accepting the mone: fuf not heeding the interruption fought—fought—do you understand me?

Tt is estimated that there are over a half million Ger- mans in that country settled in coio- nies in the southern states and thers- tore in a position to give Brazll no end of trouble. That this has been tarted is évidenced by the difficulties which are béing experienced in oper- ating the rafiroads and by the further indications that thosé who went to that country from Gerfmany are still loval to ir native land ‘and intend to :p so suddenly, dear. when I saw her picking up your biouse.

Mr. Edftor: Trom time to time statements have appearcd in the col- umns of The Bulletin issued by the Shore Line Co., in which it is claim- ed that they carried the burden for two vedrs, and now ask the public to share it with them. Let us glance at the burden the Shore Line has car- sides this the United States has given | Cause Brazil as much émbarrassment|rjaq, it nearly a quarter of a billion addi- tional credit while it has also put at its command, or wili before the month ends, a figet of ships which will carry to it those things which - it mest deeds. -In -~ additten Great Britain and France have sent their prime mini ter amd premier respectively to con- fer with the Itallan authorities for the purpcsé of deciding upon such fur- ther measures as can be jointly taken 0 discount the advance of the enemy.

BURNS, Baltie, Nov. 4, 1917, THE WAR PRIMER 8y Natienal Geographic Society. s Place in History—The Na- tiona] Geograpnic Society lusues the following war geegraphy bulletin on the history of Riga, the capital of the Russian province of Livonia, which has been captured by the Germans: Ithough coionists from the Ger- man port of Bremen began to settle 1ear the mouth of the River Dvina on the site of the present city of Riga as early as the middle of the 12th cen- tury, the usual date of the founding of this important seaport is given as 1201, with Albert I Bishop of Livonia, its sponsor. The place grew rap- icly in importance and long before the ciose of the 13th century it had be- come a flourishing member of the Hhanseatic League, that group of - meteial cities of north central Euro, which for so many years control practicaly all the channels of trade in ecntinental Europe north of the Alps. “Theé older seéction of Riga still bears the stamp of its éarly days, and closely resembles a medieval German city. Thé populous suburbs are mod- em. “At about the e that Riga be- cimé a member of Hanseatic :fi sue it acquired the right of it2 own .magistrates, and it aleo tended its walls. 1547 it fell before tre Polish kin und 1T, and even years later y the hands of the e who buyed e b Thres I ships in.the 3 yeare After this disaster the master Order of Teutdnic Knights, which had téen all-powerful in Livonia up ' ltris time, publicly abdicated his m: | tership and Riga, with southern Liv jcnta, was made a part of the Polish kingdom. “For many years Riga was coveted both by Sweden and Russia. It was seized by the former in 1621 when Gustavus Adolpnus ed his army to its walls. Ninety vears later it passed intc the posseesion of Russia after Sweden’s terrible defeat at Poltava. “In a previous bulletin on Riga it was stated that nearly half the popw: lution of the city at the outbreak of the world war was German. Among tse distinguisned Germans who in the past made their homes nere was a Herder, one of the most Influential nd prolific writers of his country, a pioneer of the romantic movemeft in Cierman literature during the last half of the 18th century. Herder went to Riga as assistant master at tp> Rige cathedral when he was under 25 vears cf age, and it was here that he did his frst impoftant literary work. Here also Hardenbars wrote his mamoirs of ihe reorganfzation of the Prussian ftate. Richard Wagner was the con- ductor of an orchestra here from 1837 to 1859, One of the n.ost interesting build- ,ings in old Riga is the Domkirke. built {in the 13th eentury and rebuilt in the {16th century. It contains one of the largest organs in the world.” Views of the Vig’hn(u OUR PILGRIMS. ° By Eilis Parker Butler of The Vigi- tantes. - three centuries they have been our rifgrims. First from a rcyalist England; religiously Inteler- ant, to land on Plymouth soil then from landlord-ridden Ireland; from Kaiser-cursed Germany; from Rus sis of the Czar and the pogrom an Siberian slavery: from tyrant infested Balkans; from the whole of aristocrat infested Europe. In littles ships and great ships, their faces turned hepe- fully Westward the numbérless pii- arims came, of many tongues, dls- united. singly dnd in pitiful little &roups. Today our pligrims are going back. Bide by side, shoulder to shoulder, in united companies, In one uniform of Freedom, one and all’ Americans and one and all American men, thousands, huygdred of thousands of our pilgrims are returning to Burope, heads up and eyes fearless, ali chanti the sdme song, all marching under the one flag. The like the world has never ssen. This 15 the trus prodgct of the melt- ing pot.

The prospects of the harvest are not favorable according to the con- dential reports of the Ghambers of Agriculture. In the coast provinces the greater part of the seed corn waé destroved by the hard winter. In the exceedingly productive province of Posen the hariest has failed owing to he peristent drought in Jine; and in other parts the corn, which §s par- tially reaped bt mot yet carried, has been abandoned owing to the prevail- ing wet weather. It is known that the results of the harvest according to two-thirds of the expert opinions of the Chambers of Agriculture is “below average.” and according to one-third of the opinions “average.” It is sig- rificant that the official pournals hav been instructed to publish the reports cf this miniority. The greatest difficulties, however, are experfenced in the domain of traffic. The lack of labor asserts it- self- in incriasing degree in spite of the law relating to civil service. The rolling stock is in the most defective condition. The lack of good lubricat- ing oil for the engines and the over- burdening of these lead to a steady in- crease of completely, unserviceable material. So it comes about that al most all the larger <concerns. are equipped for the production of war necessaries, ani there is now a deflc- ieney in works where laborers of other lyjnds ean be employed. At the great electrical works of the city of Dussel- dorf, for example. there is now work- irg only ohe large dynamo, as the turbines of the others are destroyed and there is o possibility of repair- ing_them. With all this Roes the increase in the difficulties in the provision of raw materials. The South-West German Unfon of the iron industries. which mainly comoprises the Lorraine and Saar coalfields, stated in its last cir- cular that in consequence of air at- tacks and strikes 160,000 tons of ore less were available for, delivery during the last eight weeks than were con- tracted for. Many works are obliged to discontinuz night shifts in cofce- quence of lack of material, while &th- ers are obliged to stop work for some | .days in each week. All these \difficulties are not mo- mentary and passing phenomena, but; are the signs of a siow but irresisti- ble collapse. No small part of the rapidity with which the complete economic collavge of Germany will ccme about depends on the measures of the Entente in preventing the im- | port of raw matérials from neutral countries into Germany. In the inter- ests of a genuine pedce and of the| most speedy conclusion of the fright- ful loss of human life the complete o‘l’lllon of Germany must be demand- ed. OTHER VIEW POINTS Many Springfield stores havé adopt- ed the plan of giving a ten per cent. discount on purchases taken from the store by customers and of making a charge of ten cents for each délivery.
