he was bent on the rehabilitation and not the destruction of business. was a revelation. But it has had it3 good results, some of them manifest since the European crisis developed.
Proverbial III Wind.
The feeling here is that if business n'.en keep their heads cool and tho'r eyes open that we shal! greatly beneli* from the war. The indications ai a that we will feed the world, anJ clothe the world, and if the war is at all prolonged we shall soon see factories running day and night shifts all over the country.
It is not thought at all possible here ihat we shall become embroiled In any way with the war of worlds, but there are manifold ways in which we might find ourselves on the verge. The fact that our ministers and ambassadors in Europe are being called upon in every capital to look after the interests of the warring nations will necessarily mean infinite work for the secretary of state. If the war Is prolonged his work along this line alone will entail greater hardship than befell Knox during his term of office. The problems lie will be called upon to decide will in many instances be of an exceedingly dplicate nature.
Rut just now it is our own citizens in Europe who are causing the greatest concern. One day Senator Kern's uffice handled twenty cases involving a search of Europe for lost Americans, the financing of stranded Americans and the protection of Americans. That clay, for illustration, I sat for half an hour with the telephone receiver at my ear awaiting my turn with the secretary's office. The amount of appeals that poured in upon Bryan was appalling. But almost constantly he had The situation in hand. And it will be followed up until ever.y American citizen caught between the armies will be safely returned home-
Strange Contrasts.
The Washington end of the European -pheaval is rather interesting. The presentatlves of most of the powers involved are close friends. For instance, Spring-Rice, the British ambassador, is a very intimate friend of Dumba, the Austrian ambassador. The two diplomats served together in ether posts before coming to Washington and when Dumba arrived here to take charge, his first caller was Spring-Rice. Xow these two, both brilliant, high grade men, and personal friends, can hardly be seated together at the table. Then there la Juesserand, the brillant and eloquent Fronch ambassador, and Von Bernsdorff, the equally brilliant and resourceful German ambassador. These two have long divided the honor of being the most popular, versatile and brilliant of the diplomats stationed here. These two represent the l: ng and short of it. Juesserand Is very short, not much over Ave feet, and, while not fat, a trifle heavy, while Von Bernsdorff is unusually tall and elegantly slender. The Frenchman and I he German, however, have found many common Interests and have been great chum*. Now, It would be the height of impropriety for one to call upon the other for a social chat. The Russian ambassador, George Bakhmeteflt, a fine type of the •wily, elegant, suave Russian diplomat of tradition, is recognized In Washington at the pinnacle of social prestige. He is ardently devoted to gay society and is encouraged in It by his wealthy American wife, the sister of John R. McLean. It must have been an awfufl shock for Newport when the BftWmioteffls upon learning of the war "withdrew from the tango teas of that delectable resort. He Is built somewhat along the physical lines of Juesserand wad the two are close friend*. Stnoe Russia and France are making common cause they will be able to talk It over In the beautiful stone and marble French embassy or at the more ponderous Russian embassy, rearer the white house. Some of these diplomats are now making strenuous •efforts to return to their posts as both the French and German ambassadors are in ©Trope.
It Is highly Important that all European diplomats accredited to the United States should now be at their posts. Secretary Bryan has already summoned them all to a meeting at which it may be assumed the attitude of the United States will be made perfectly clear early In the game to the end that no entanglements may afterwards result.
That the wonderful work of the Wilson administration during the last ten days has won the unstinted admirations of all good Americans without regard to politics may be takon for granted. It oould not be otherwise. It is practically oertain that Roosevelt and Beveridge will admit they could have done better but In times like these, with a virile administration doing things, there will be but little disposition to listen to the professional fault finders who want official pie.
Adieu Joey Bristow.
The attitude of the people toward the pie-eating patriots has just been unmistakably shown by the people of Kansas who have passed judgment upon the unspeakable BriBtow. He has

7erre Hciatean on Board Which Will Establish State Penal Farm Plan
thy example set by
several other states Indiana proposes soon to give short term prisoners trie benefit of
healthful outdoor work which will bring money into the (.offers or tne state, and the work of planning this institution to be established will fall partly upon the shoulders of W. C. Ball, a Terre Hautean. For years Mr. Ball has been interested in social work and civic problems and his appointment by Governor Samuel M. Ralston as a member of the board of trustees of the new penal farm came as a reward for his work. The penal farm will be established at Futnamville, Indiana, where the state has purchased 1,567 acres of land.
Mr. Ball in company with the other members of the board left Saturday afternoon for Occoquan, Va., and West Rutland, Mass., to visit penal farms there. The board proposes to carefully Investigate the penal farms before making definite decisions for Indiana's new institution. "We want to benefit by the experiences of the other institutions," said Mr. Ball. "When work is actually started on the new penal farm we want to have an idea of just wnat must De accomplished in order to make the Institution ideal.
Work Contemplated.
"The land purchased by the state at Putnamville is ideal for the location of such a farm. We have stone quarries on the grounds and we propose to use them. I think that the first prisoners we have there v.rn be used to build stone dwellings for the prisoners on the farm. After a time I believe, that the board will open the quarries for the men and we will supply road stone and building stone for the state. However, I would not wish to enter into competition with companies only for state work. "We are planning to make the new Institution self-sustaining. There is plenty of land to be used for growing garden truck, land for cattle grazing and plenty of room for an orchard. We will try to make the place delightful so that no prisoner wi'l have cause to complain of the food and treatment. "Purdue university should be called on, I think, to send experts to test the soils and give us their opinions of the best place for the different crops. Then
been overwhelmingly defeated as predicted in these columns last Sunday in his race for renomination.
It ought to have been foreseen even by Bristow, politically blind as he seems to be. In the tiar^er of Bristow there is a lesson that politicians might well ponder. He was elected to the senate as a republican of progressive leanings six years ago. The moment he entered the senate he commenced to attack everything and everybody and especially the traditional policies of the republican partv and its idolized leaders such as Cannon and Aidrich. This he kept up unceasingly, the national convention of two year:-) ago approached he linf' up with Lafollette for president. H" posed as Lafollette's friend. And the moment that Roosevelt stuck his head above the the versatile and volatile Bristow underwent a quick chsn-je of heart. had a hankering for the band wagon. He thought Roosevelt nould win and he got behind him. Of all the whoop-ers-up none whooped 'em up like Bristow, Then came the defeat of Root.ovelt in the convention r.iid the organization of the bull moose party. There was a prolonged silence from Bristow He evidently wanted to wait until th returns were all in. The bull mooseis claimed him, the republicans claimed him, and Bristow was canny as a Scot. Then came the defeat of the bull moosers. This left Uristow in the position of a man without a party. was coming up for re-election. He was uncertain as to whether he would line up with the republicans or the bull moose. The prin. iples of the two parties differ but that made no diffetence to the Kansan. He decided to wait and see how the cat jumped. Th° only thing of which he was certain was that he would not join the dem ocrats. The democrats would see to that. Thus his decision to attack tbt democrats on the floor of the senate.
Kansas Acrobat.
He started out on the theory that the more bitter and unjust his assaults the more popular it would make him with the bull moose and the republicans. This policy he continued for a long while without defining his political status. During the tariff debate when challenged to do so by Senator James he positively refused to say either he was a republican or a bull moose. At length he decided to join the republicans. ^.fcer this his assaults were crude and coarse and full of eound and fury signifying nothing. He tried to make it appear that Bryan was dishimest, that Wilson was a political crook, that practically everyone of the men surrounding Woodrow Wilson in official life are disreputable and dishonorable. No other member of the senate opposition would have been capauie ct such conduct. Then came the Mexican trouble. At that time all real Americans should have been with the administration. Bristow was busy giving aid and comfort to the enemy. He abused the presiddnt because he would not declare war. He insisted that Wilson was destroying the prestige of the United States- And then, after Vera Cruz, when war seemed certain and Wilson had ordered the war ships to Mexican waters, Bristow turned right about face and boldly abused the pres ident for forcing the country into war without cause. It was Bristow who was abusing the president and shedding tears over th£ abuse of the Mexicans at the very moment our boys were falling in the steets of Vera Cruz. Then came the Niagara mediation, and again right ab'uit face for Mr. Bristow Again Wilson was shamelessly abused for destroying the prestige of the United States and again Mr. Bristow
mm
was
hot for war. If he was not hot for war his conduct was inexplicable. And so It has been with Bristow.

Putt on Their Honor.
"I believe that the board will erect sanitary stone cottages on the place for the men on the farm, and everything will be done to assure their comfort. There will, of course, be some guards on the place, but I believe that most of the men will be placed on their honor. I would favor the legislature passing a law providing a sentence of five years in the penitentiary for any one escaping from the farm. The short term prisoners would then think a long time before going away from such an ideal place and taking the risk of a long sentence behind prison walls."
According to the plan mapped out by the legislature, the penal farm will take care of short term prisoners. The plan will be similar to the one in use at the Occoquan farm, which is in charge of W. H. Whitaker, formerly superintendent of the JeffersonviHe reformatory.
The members ,of the penal farm who will make the trip with Mr. Ball are: A. H. Shideler, Marion, president George E. Seidel, Richmond, vice president James L. Randel, Grcencastle, treasurer, and W. ('. Ball, secretary. Mr. Seidel was largely instrumental in procuring the passage of the bill providing for the penal farm.
and every other commercial cour.lry I face to face with a grave crisis. To I prevent irreparable disaster immediI ate action was necessary to safeguard the financial and business interest.-, and this called for the earliest possible organization of the federal reserve board. When the situation was made plain to all, Mr. Warburg, vho had been named as a member, hurried to
Washington to go through the formality of appearing before the committee on banking and currency. It was understood that there wou'd be no delay about confirmation. No oci-cr republican cared to delay proceedings by asking Warburg any queatl-ms. Not so Bristow. He "knew" Warburg must be a scoundrel because he had been named by a democratic president. He held up the work in commit'es for two days. And so it has. been with Bristow throughout.
Curtain for Bristow.
Well, the people got tired of Bristow, evidently. He was defeated for renomination by 15,000 majority former Senator Curtis. Good riddance.
As for Curtis, he is a consistent republican of the old school. He stool by Taft and went down with the ship two years ago. While in the senate before he did not make a profound impression but he won the respect o* all parties. He fought his fights honestly, never struck below the belt, and conducted himself as a gentleman. If he should be elected ibis fall it will not be a reflection upon the commor sense of the people of Kansas—just on their political judgment. The indications, however, a,ro that a democrat will come to the .senate from Kansas to join Thompson, another democrat, already here. Thus is the Wilson administration "losing" the con iidence of the public.
