Tven now it is still unhecertaln In ~whose hands the control of congress rest after those who were elected to the house of representatives or gen- iie on Tuesday take office. In many ances the cofitests are close and require the tabylation of practi- ally the entire vote befors it can be determined who is the winner. While the appeal of President Wil- son for the support of democratic had its desired effect in randidates Dome instances ,the figures reveal that it utterly failed in others, as the cut- come in New Jersey, Rhode fsland, - ihols and Kansas shows. There is wvery reason to believe, however, that hos= elected to either branch of con- gress regardless of their politics will #‘and loyally by the administration in uph-iding the nation’s part in the wav. Mhe voters have given expreesion to opinion upon that subject and ¢ indicated by their votes that y have confidence in the ahility o the men chosen, whether in accord- ance with the president’s request or not, to look carefully afiér the best interests of the country whether at War or peace, ~ From the present indications the re- publicans have gained the control of the Jower house and the prospects are favorable to the securingy of a ma- jority in the senate. This has not been accomplished without some im- portaat changes such as the 1688 by defeat of Senator Weeks of Massachu- setts the clection of a republican as 1 successor to the late Senator Stone of Missouri and the defeat of Sauls- ary by PBall in Delaware, In many states there was showh convincing evidence of the unity which now pre- vails in what was once a divided re- publican party. NEW RESPONSIBILITIES. o Tt is not to be supposed that the dropping out of the war of Bulzari Turkey and Austria-Huhgary is going @ mean that the allied nations are to Bave no further concern relative 0 the people in those K eoun- tries. And our interests and re- fponsibilities there are not going to Be confined to military or political channels, The people of those countries have felt the effect of the war in many di- rections. They have suffered great lossce from the punishment “Inflicted upon their armed forces, the disrup- tion of business in general and the sreat drain whith has besn made up- on their resources. Just what the ex- tént of thess troubles are haa not been indicated exgept through the manner in which theéy have been eager to avoid another winter of the war and by the slatement from the mupreme war council of the "illies which has Been in session at Versailles to the effect that it is its desire to cooperate with these countries in making avafls able as far'as possible food and other sipplies necessary for the life of the elvil population, It is known that crops have been none too good and that in spite of the determined efforts to draw upon the vast regions of Russia it has been impossible to secure the foodstuffs which are required. It is not thus surprising that reference is mads to the starving people of thos: war im- poverished central powers. Being out of the war it is evident that they must be given help and it is evident that the needs will not be smafl. The; are due to feel the effects of the war in many directions for a jong time to come, but it ig the duty of the world to see that humanity ie net made to sufier needlessly. A distinction\has to be made between the people and the tyrannical governments over ‘which they had no control, OUR FOREIGN TRADE. How the foreign trade of this coun- try as the result of the war activity has developed, and apparently is in- creasing, is shown by the report of the department of foreign and do- mestic commerce for the month of September. We have broken records before and we are still breaking them. How long it will be continued Is problematical but there is slight pros- pect of a alump when it is shown that for the sixth time during the present vepr the value of the imports of mer- vhandise for that month has exceeded those for the corfesponding month of; any previous year, and for the folurth time this year the value of the exports for that month has exceeded thpse for the corresponding month of any previous year, What is meant by this inerease in ‘gv:ru is shown Dby the fact tnat the value for the month amounted ® | large vélume of business when it is L} oft inflicting upon every count: v Shéwn that the goods sent out of the $350,000,000, or $100,000,000 over Sep- tember 1917 and $20.000,030 more than in August of this year. Comparinz hine months of this vear with the same period of 1917 thefe ig a slight decrease but for the corresponding period of 1916 thefe is aun increase of $610,000,000, This business is stimu- Jated in certain linés by the war but there Is need of secinz that it 1s not or;tly maintained, but incroased there- after. GERMANY’'S PROTEST. How quick Germany is to ®hine when the tables are turned against it is no better {llustrated than by the profest which it is now making against the ‘hombing of its oities By the aflies' aireraft. Germany Aoesn’t iike its own treatment when practitéd upon itself and no one can blamé it, for it has resortedl to everv. cohreivable device for méeting its desperate needs, It has cast rules of war, restrictions ahd internqtionnl laws lo the winds and descended to the level of {he sutlaw and the pirate who feéaghives no lim- itations. Byt as !s usually tne ease in such Instatices it loses no time in pleadifig for merey whén it is shown Ly superior force that it eannot carm on its policies indefinitely =nd when any retaliatory measures afe used azainst it Germany is now passiny thréuch advefsity and it {¢ dscidedly anxious that its peéple and its terditory should not be subjectéd to the horrors and depredations which it hag insisted up- that it hag invaded. But think of tae of- frontery in protesting noW against the bombin% of German cities! Tie (ime has come of ecourse when Germany is on ths defe It ‘has so fuch to attend to that it has had to abandoh its air raid§ except o the battlefronts and immediate ter tory. 'The number of fis maéhines has been greatly reduced and the su- premacy of the Air is {h other hands Tt was necestary for the allies to take up German metheds in order to teath it a lesson. Naturally the experience doesn’t set well but a protest from Germany régarding such a matter doesn’t heln its case any. Germam knows what it can do to end it ali and end it quickiy. INTERESTED NEUTRALS. is only proper that the natfons have stood neutral during the ar shouid he manifesting fincrease] interest relative to their own posttion in the peace arrangements, for though Germany has not as vet asreed to the terms of the armistice which have heen presented to it, or asked General |Toch for the granting of it as it hae been told that it must, it js perfectly evident that it {s only a question of time before this s done and steps can be taken relative to the establish- ment of peace, . The neutrals have been large &uf- ferers. Those who are neighbors of the 'Teutons have bsen forced to un- 70 greater losses and injustices Tt which ome of the nations which have of v declared a stat exist with dermany. rizhis hive been disregs d, their shipping been destroved and the llves of subjects have been ruthlessly taken. In not a few instances Ger- many has promised r tition as the the result of protests which have been made. Norway has for instance lost nearly thowsand ships and hundreds of lives to say nothing of the serious In- terruption in its business with other couniries, Holland has been forced to cleave very closely to the line 1 or- der not to seriously violate its heu- trality in meeting German demands, while the losses to Denmark, Sweden and Bpain are by no means small, despite a neutrality which was in- clined In eome instances (c lean to Germany. Denmarl: also is interested in the return of Schleswig which mat- ter Germany a half century &go brom- ised would be sattlen by a slebiseite. It is but natural therefore that the neutrals should be showinz an fnter- st in their own claims with peace iooming so6 conspicuously on the hori- “won. war to EDITORIAL NOTES. The. state never did a better thing than when it decided to retain its war zovernor. The reconvening of politics didn't result in such a one sided contest as it was expected to. It can. never be expected that politi~ cal campaizn ofators will ever get the title of four-minute men. Strange as it may seem there is un- usual silence oh the par: of Lenine and Trotzky at the present time. The man on the corner says: Much of the virtue of any liniment comes irom the helping hand that rubs it in. The recognition of the Polish army indicates that Poland is' going to get proper coneideration at the peace th- Lle, From the way in which the allies continue to drive into the enemy lines they give no idea of offering any rest to the Huns. Spellacy can now add another in- stance where he has “stuck to his post.” But in this case 1t was not a matter of choic: All of a sudden Germany is dis- olaying an unusual kindness toward | tne Czechs, hut they must fave cut| their wisdom teeth before this. Turkey has prebably had an oppor- tunily to consider by this time that it no longer will have the chance to massacre the Armenians at will. If by any chante you have been overlooked in the gathering of funds for the umited war work campaizn, don't hesitate to make your cantri- bution. Sufficiently supplied as they have claimed to be, no country is more in- terested in the question of food today than those making up the once united central powers, From the success which the women are making of the job of flling the places of the striking New York wait- ers, the men might as well understand that they have got to go te work.® Germany must take the military course and ask General Foeh for an armistice, the terms of wkich have been submitted to it.

I am stuck off here in the woods and letters from home con- stitute about my only reading matter. Have not seén a paper for ten days. Of course we always carry a volume f of that most interesting and close substitute for reading matter, our shirts, and almost any fine day I am to be found in some shell-proof spot in the sunlight poring over the seams | of my shirt. In this last drive ol ours I spent my first night an capt- ured eoil sleeping in a Boche dugout. Here 1 acquired a Boche brand of cooties that invaded my clothes only to be met and fiercely attacked by own Yankee-reared brand, and a serap to the finish Dbegan.
