Afain "The Enemy'i Country."
The significant feature to us of Mr. Brysn's
home-coming speech at Lincoln Is the palpable
effort to arouse anew the old sectional isnue ori
ginally embodied In bis arraignment of the east
nearly twenty years ago as "the enemy's coun
try." At that time, of course, Mr. Bryan was
preaching his free silver crusade which appealed
to the debtor parts of the country, and made
the creditors believe that It meant debt scaling
and repudiation. The east then, more then now,
contained the creditor states, and when Mr.
Br an set out for the citadel of the so-called
money power, he referred to It as an expedition
Into "the enemy's country."
And now In his appeal to the people for his
peace propaganda, Mr. Bryan depicts the Alle-
ghanles as the dividing line separating the in
tolerant and prejudiced east from the open
minded wealth producers of the Mississippi val
ley and the west, In the evident belief that he
can rally public sentiment here by holding up
another bogy man from whose rapacity the peo
ple must protect themselves. Instead of dwell
ing on the unity of the nation, and the common
Interest of the entire people for the maintenance
of peace, the covert suggestion sticks out that
the peace-lovers are to be found west of the Al
legbanies, and that the states east of the moun
tains are inhabited by selfish money-grabbers
who want war In order to fatten upon It.
We do not believe the pursuit of world peace
Is helped by injecting such a sectional Issue.
There may be a difference of opinion as to the
best methods, as Mr. Bryan admits there Is be
tween himself and President Wilson, but we do
not believe that there is any "enemy's country"
on the peace map of the United States.
Crushing the Muicovite.
Germany' tremendous drive against the
Russians has put the army of the kaiser on the
toll of the czar. All the advantage of the pres
ent war now rests with the German. But the
resilience of the Russian la as well known to Ger
many as to the rest of the world. The army
now driven back will form again, and when the
German retires it will follow blm. Napoleon's
march to Moscow may be repeated, but without
the tragic fate of the Grand Army.
Crushing the Muscovite Is a game as old as
modern history; it has been played many times,
and by. some magnificent military leaders, but
each time the Muscovite has arisen stronger and
more capable than he was before his defeat. The
Slav is a dreamer, and his world moves in cycles
of .centuries, rather than of years. All the peo
ples under the czar have not as yet been welded
Into the homogeneity essential to true national
greatness, but In the fierce hest of the world
war they are undergoing the 'change, and the
pounding they are now getting from the ham
mer of German military genius is developing the
fiber that makes for better co-ordination of na
tional Impulse. ' )
The Romanoff is learning fom his war the
lesson Napoleon taught the Hohenzollern a cerw
tury or more ago that all faith can not safely
be placed in the privileged classes, and that the
people must be relied upon to protect their coun
try and maintain its Institutions. Whatever the
ultimate result of the present war may be, no
nation will profit from it more than Russia,
which la breaking away from medievalism and
is being opened up to the reception of modern
thought. !
Mexican Peace Conference.
If , the word that - comes from Mexican
sources is to be relied upon, the detention of
Vlctoriano Iluerta at El Paso Is bringing result
much sooner than might have been expected. It
is now reported that Carranxa has reconsidered
his previously announced Intention, and has
consented to meet with Villa for the purpose of
discussing terms of peace. No secret Is made that
this determination was brought about by the ar
rest of Huerta. The action of the United States
in this case, and the reTural of President Wilson
to meet Felipe Angeles, late Villa lieutenant, has
made very clear to the chieftains in Mexico that
no advantage will come to either that the other
does not share by reason of any action that may
be taken by our government. Huerta's new ac
tivity is a menace to all of them, and they openly
express the fear that the new party will,' If per
mitted to go on, so complicate the situation that
intervention by the United States can not be
avoided. Understanding this point, it Is also
very plain to the Mexicans that If they can now
sink their personal interests, the way to peace
Is open.
Public and Private Employment.
One interesting feature of the European war
as affecting America is now developing In con
nection- with the manufacture ot arms and am
in u union in mis country, rnvste nrms are
bidding for services at euch Ligh prices that
numbers of the experts trained by the United
States are leaving the government aervlce and
entering tne employ of private firms. Super
ficial examination of the situation would lead to
the ready conclusion that these officers and spe
cially trained workmen are wholly within their
rights In making a change of employer, when
the change ia to their advantage. Deeper thought
will bring to view the ethical point involved.
Tbe United States, in training the officers of its
army and navy makea a certain investment In
them that ought not to be entirely lost sight of.
To a lesser extent thla Is true of the enlisted
man, and in some degree of tbe civilian em
ploye. Does not this Investment, -which takes the
form of special care, training in particular pur
suits, and the development of special faculties,
carry with It, if only by Implication, an obliga
tion on part of the recipient to serve faithfully
the public interest, without regard to tbe temp
tations of private employments?
For the moment the private employers are
able to outbid the government for the services
of these experts, but should not loyalty to tbe
service outweigh the temporary advantage that
presented T '
Colonel Bryan's advice) to tbe people to write
to tbe president reflects a peculiarly ardent
friendship for tbe chief executive. A deluge ot
letters bearing all kind of opinions would en
hance tbe Joy of living at tbe summer "WbJte
House, swell postal receipts and fortify tbe
president against tbe danger of vacation fatigue.

The Railroads in Warfare
Tha Ballway Agra Oe-ette.
One of tha bl achievements of the war In Europe
haa been the handling; of the transportation situation
by the railroads. One general has called It a
"war of railroad"," because of the vast role played
by them In getting" troops, provlelona and munitions
to the front and on time, the victory being with the
army that goe flrat to a critical point The oft-quoted
remark of Napoleon. "An army la as strong aa Its
feft," haa been adapted to read, "An army la aa
strong aa Its rallroada."
Krery railroad man today knowa that Oermany
has been able to keep up a remarkable fight on Its
two frontiers by Its government-owned military rail
road syetem. which enablea It to ahunt the aama
troops back and forth from one frontier to the other.
It la not known that the French rallroada have ren
dered an equally great service In France and at the
same time, with the esceptlon of the f1rt two weeks
of the war, practically continued on their reguHr
schedule for civil passengers and commercial freight
And all this wonderful work haa been done without
any noteworthy accident, and It haa been done with
a constant rerouting of large numbers of troops and
war material to meet new battle conditions on a front
HO kilometers (W4 miles) long, from the English Chan
nel to the Swiss frontier. It haa been done with a
decrease of rolling stock In the fare of an ever de
creasing coal supply snd alwaya with the same or a
smaller number of railroad men.
During the critical period from August 1 to 20 last.
no leas than l.ano.Oo aoldlers were got to the front
and each of these soldiers was handled three tlmea,
so tht In reality S.e'O.on') troops were delivered at
the required points. While these troops were being
moved, while possibly 5,0 0,000 of the civil population
were also traveling, while two armies were being
hurrrled Into Alsace snd Lorraine to begin a double
campaign to turn the German army beading for Bel
glum, on August 1, a special train was provided to
conduct the German embassador, M de Bchoen, to
Berlin. No, there was no pan'c among, the railroad
employes, there was no breakdown of the French
railroad system.
One must have seen the handling of an army corpa
to get an Idea of what work theae Inof fenalve-looklng
French trains have accomplished and atill are accom
plishing. Let railroad officers who have sweated ovor
a 100-car circus movement consider that any hjavy
movement of troopa la made by army corpa and that
an army corps consists of no fewer than 19,000 men.
all told; and that to boot there are cannon, horses.
kitchen equipment, engineers' equipment, wagons,
aeroplanes, ammunition boxes, provisions enough
things to make the moving of a tralnload of wild ani
mals seem tsme In comparison.
It takes two trslns of fifty cars each to transport
the men of an Infantry regiment Thla regiment la
subdivided Into three battalions of 1,000 men each,
and each battalion Into four companies. The military
end of tha affair la easy. Get your care there and the
soldiers, company by company, hop In quickly, with
out any confusion. Tonr ears of lnf.ntry reg'ments
are easily got rid of. i But you need an extra J0O cars
to carry nothing but the immediate Infantry equip
mentmitrailleuse guns, regiment wagons snd odds
and ends of baggage.
Then you need another extra twenty trains for the
artillery of this army corps. Only' one cannon can
be set on a flat car Including Us limber. About fifty
cara are necessary for each regiment's cannon. Next
there must be ears for the horses that drsg the can
non, cara for the artillerymen and for all the other
equipment that goes, with -cannon.
If the cavalry regiments travel with the army
corps, the Job Is still worse, ss no fewer than six
trains of cars are necessary fop one cavalry regi
ment. Add to these trains the ones required by the
commissary, the ' hospitals the heavy artillery, the
trench diggers, the brdre builders and no fewer than
seventy trslns of fifty cars, or about fifty big circuses
are neceaaary to move an army corpa. And tha
French railroads. If you please, had to move no
fewer than forty-two army corps In twenty days.

OMAHA, June 80 To the Editor of
Tho Bee: I note that the fathers and
mothers of Omaha extend a vote of

Surely It la a boon to parents to know
that their children are pulling weeds and
nursing vegetables to healthy growth In
a garden plot out of school hours and
Incidentally keeping weeds out of and
nursing to healthy growth thrifty
thoughts In the garden plots of their
young hearts, Instead of running the
streets or thinking up wild and woolly
adventures (If nothing worse). But
most especially must we thank the little
U
man-who gets out among these young
people and does the work. He Is con

All who were fortunate enough to

Mr. Dale has done a big thing and Is
deserving of our thanks.
Such work ss this Is a blr work and

Protective Tariff la Needed.
OMAHA, June W.-To the Editor of The
Bee: If our people desire general em
ployment at good living wages to produce
general and lasting prosperity, write
members of congress to paaa laws ad
vanclng the tariff (on articles our people
can and should produce, that gives our
people employment) sufficient to stop Im
portations of theae.
The old world and the new will pur
chaae what our people desire to sell It
our people meet competition in prices.
and in protecting our people by stop
ping labor Immigration and importations
of what our people can and should pro
duce will not deter foreign nations from
buying our goods and foodstuffs and
many other articles! If our people desire
thst our greatest industry lumber
shall continue, appeal to members of
congress to pass a law compelling our
government and land owners to grow a
certain number of specified trees for
every sere, and if thla Is done, then. In
side of fifteen years the United States
will hare mora and better trees for com
mercial uses than ever before to produce
lumber sufficient for our people and re
duce present prices of lumber 50 per cent
or mora, as every county In every state
would have saw and planing mills, and
the only expense to the peoplo outside
bf the prices would be a short wagon
haul.

employment to produce general and last

Thomas Campbell U7T7-H44 )
Our bugle eanr truce, for the night cloud
had lowered, '
nd the sentinel stars set their watoh
in the sky;
And thousands had sunk on the ground
overpowered,
The weary to aleep and the wounded to
die.
TVhen reposing that night on my pallet
of straw
By the wolf-scaring faggot that guarded
the slain.
At the dead of the night a sweet vision T
saw.
And thrice ere ths morning I dreamt It
again.
Mcthought from the battlefield's dreadful
array,
far. fur I had roamed on a desolate
track;
'Twas autumn, and sunshine arose on ths
way
To the home of my fathers, that wel
comed me bsck.
I flew to the pleasant fields traversed so
oft
In life's morning march, when my
bosom waa young;
I heard my own mountain goats bleating
alofl.
And knew the sweet strain that the
corn-reapers sung.
Then pledged we the wine cup, and fondly
I swore
From my home and my weeping friends
never to part;
My little ones kissed me a thousand times
o'er,
And my wife sobbed aloud in her full
ness of heart.
"Stay, stsy w-lth us! rest! thou art wear
and worn!" '
And fain was their war-broken soldlef
to stay;
