It left a bedazed mental is indecd hostlIo to lhc Unltcd s impression, a wearied nalnte. and In digestion. There were samples to bo had at the Convention Hall food how, but the feature that attract ed the crowds, and to which visitors gave attention, were the demonstra tions and lectures on preparation of foods. The preparation of foods rs now recognized as a science. There are numerous books that discuss calories and albumens in glib fashion. But the demonstrations and talks at the food show were intelligible and practical, the housewives found, and the whole show was a sort of lab oratory of household economics. THE FORTS OF SAND For months Field Marshal von Hindenburg's troops have been fight ing hard on the Dvinsk front. The German official statement has said at various times that the Russian attacks before Dvinsk "were con tinued without the slightest suc cess." On the other hand, the Russian of ficial statement has said in prac tically the same language from time to time tho German attacks before Dvinsk "were continued without the slightest success." Both the German and Russian statements are true, for Dvinsk has been captured two or three dozen times, first by the Germans, then by the Russians. Newspaper readers who recollect how Liego and the other forts crumpled before the way of the Ger man advance in Belgium and France until the turn of the tide at the Marne have wondered how Dvinsk should not succumb to the great guns of Germany and Austria. But unlike the French and Belgian for tifications, Dvinsk was not made of concrete, stone, and steel. The Rus sion fortress was constructed of shifting sands, and therein lies the secret. Gunners cannot knock to pieces sand fortifications with the ease that they have reduced con crete and steel. Projectiles are smothered in the skillfully laid out trenches. The lessons of the war, upon which Europe is spending billions of dol lars and millions of lives, ought to be of value to America. The sand fortress, erected at very little ex pense and holding out so splendidly for months, ought to be of interest to our own national defense board for use on our coasts should America ever be attacked. DRIVINO THE WAR HOME The allied nations have caused the war to enter upon a new phase. Whether General Joffre has been as signed the supreme command of their land forces has not yet devel oped beyond doubt, but it is a fact that there has been a centralization of directive authority, and it may be fair to assume that what has oc curred in England, a concentration of power in three heads, is a paradigm of what has occurred in respect of the management of the campaigns on the Continent. Per fect co-ordination would take up alack and eliminate waste, but more than all else it would secure the maximum of results from the forces in the field. Offensives on all the al - ncu limns ciuKin ici lie rciaicu, and. the only way in which to maintain this correspondence is through a centralized council. If this Btcp has been adopted, the next undoubtedly will be to drive the wnr home to Germany by an attempt to breuk through the Kaiser's line. It is not generally known how, in three years, the armies of the French republic, be fore Napoleon appeared prominently upon the scene, achieved greater conquests and glory of arms than did all tho forces of Louis XIV in his entire reign. It wns merely by directing "the hottest fire at ono point and breaking tho enemies' lines in two." A historian asserts that "This new policy became he basis of Napoleon's victories." This same policy has been practiced by tho German general staff, and ac counts for the greatest German suc cesses. It docs not always succeed: it failed in the attempted drive to Calais; it has just failed in the ef 4az. to capture Riga. But it sue- cdcd in Belgium, In Gnlicia, In Poland, and In Serbia, That policy offers the only method of carrylnjc the battles Into Ger many, of acqurJntinj? the German people with the frlRhtfulncss of the thing their ruler has imposed upon Europe. And that must be done if the allies are to dictate the terms of peace. THERE IS A SOLUTION Mr. Lansing, in discussing the ef fects of the present war, once de clared that "noutral nations have had to meet a scries of problems which have never been solved." America Iibh ono such problem on spiracyi sal(1 t0 uc the jno cf .certain foreign government, has Ibccn onraniMd for the purpose of destroying by bomb and torch the i, t i.:. . l..l .., . r" ' iij wnicn lurnun arms and munitions to the allies. This is not merely, nn invasion of AmArionn enifnrnimitii) 14 -.illilt.. States, Dr. Josef Goricar, former Austro Hungarian consul at New York, in an astounding revelation declares that the agents of hii government in the United States have plotted against munitions manufacturing in America, and he asserts that among i tho many thousands of his country men here "a reign of terror has been created." Sinco the publica tion of Dr. Goricar's accusations, it has been alleged' that the Depart ment of State has in its possession evidence of objectionable activities conducted by Alexander von Nubcr, Austro-Hungarian consul general in New York, and it is said his offenses extend from complicity in passport frauds to schemes to prevent the ex portation of munitions of war. All the machinery of the Govern ment is in motion to uncover the extent, the authors of, and the par ticipants in the great conspiracy. It is said that the Government intends to make an example of those de tected. If it Is true that it pos sesses evidence which incriminates Von Nubcr, it should begin with him as its first example. His exequaturs should bc revoked and he bc ex pelled from the country, bag and baggage. It is not common sense to allow an arch-conspirator to be at large. Remove the fountain-head, and its issue will cease to flow. It is not justice to the nation to permit the author of the worst evil in tho land to remain here because, per chance, if removed the embarrass ments attending our intercourse with Austria-Hungary might be ir crcascd. As for all others involved in the conspiracy, the criminal laws of the land are in full operation. If the nation-wide arson plot is to be stamped out, the whole measure of the law must be applied in all its rigor. It is the only way for the law to vindicate itself; it is the only way to prevent the intimidation of large industries; it is the only so lution of a dangerous international plot. TERROR A PRINCIPLE OF RULE Thrice in the history of the world has been witnessed "the scientific application of terror as a principle of rule." In the evening of the Roman republic Sulla instituted it under his dictatorship. It was ap plied for the second time under the inexorable regime of the committees in the morning of the French re public. Lastly it was adopted by Germany when she decided to risk all in war, knowing her instruments and premeditating her course. "It is my opinion that to discon cert their measures and stop tho 1 enemy we must make the royalists .vui, umiiu .-Tumuli ucuciju me: committee of general defense in 1792, proclaiming the advent of the Terror. By his forces' deeds the German Emperor likewise has an nounced that ho is determined to cow Europe through its fear of his terrible works. The barbarities prac ticed in Belgium, tho aerial raids upon Paris, the bombardment of I London by Zeppelins, the shelling of undefended towns, tho sinking of the Lusitania, and countless other 1 crimes committed in the name of war dui mat. were perpetrated wiin no military purpose, were all of a kind with the program of terrorism with which the Kaiser hopes to in timidate his foes. The idea seems not to be with the German Emperor alone. Dr. Hcinzc, a liberal member of the reichstag, is the author of a book from which the following is an excerpt: "If the al lies hopo by hunger to rob the Ger man armies of victory no German doubts that the general staff will ul timately expel millions of inhabi tants from occupied territory and slaughter hundreds of thousands of prisoners who are consuming Ger man food." In time tho application of the terror n.ay cease to be scientific und degenerate into the most purpose less murder. Misunderstanding.
