MUD AT T&ITOIIENBR Tor the past week, 'Great; Britain has apparently been more Exercised aver attacks upon Lord Kitchener than, over the. campaign against the .Germans. Evidently the storm- has been gathering for some time. " The British; have been doing, com paratlv ly little in. the'wa£ and certainly on land hare, made no progress of con- sequence. The British public was re- assured all winter Ivy the, promise that- the "war. would begin early Way.'' But whenythe early days May brought no.new offensive by the Allies, but instead a vigorous and |e«8t partly successful offensive the Gprmans, the British public, raj»- resenting the usual amount of hu- ipiiji nature, naturally was ready look, tor a scapegoat., The ruction tbe adp:|ralty between the chief, 4»mrci)Ul(. and the first: assistant and leader of the p^ctieal n^vy men, £fsher, brought to, a head a crisis that was met by the proposed coali- tion cabinet. It was argued that the cabiuct in time of war should repre- sent nil tho parties, and thus atten- tion waB diverted for a time from tho differences about tho conduct of the 'War that' really "Compelled a re- alignment. This of course was fol- lowed by disillusions by public men and by the press of the changes that should be made in the cabinet. And it wag inevitable that Kitchener should be among those assailed. For Kitchener lias been absolute war lord in Groat Britain. The Brit- ish people and parliament paid "him a really fine compliment by giving Utn) supreme power in all matters pertaining t<f the war. Having given him a free hand, the British natural- ly expected much of Kitchener. At the same, time the British have been quite generally disposed to stand back and "lot Kitchener do it." lie has not had the co-operation he should have had, but it is not easy to convince the British public of this fact. It jiroliably is'true! that Kitchener vas overestimated at the outset and that he is underestimated by the hioro vigorous of his critics at'this time, lie seems not to be a brilliant man, but a determined one. He i.s perhaps given a little too much to the practice of trying to do it all him- self. lie doesn't court counsel. Prob- ably ho is as- good a man for the place as Britain has, but that is not saying that he is a military genius. Something of the oilier pid« of dil- atory, something ol* the odds with Which be lias to contend, is pointedly developed in a letter to a Chicago newspaper by a staff correspondent now traveling in England. He writes that, whereas in Prance every one knows that war is on, that tremend- ous sacrifices are being made and that existence is at stake, in. Great Britain one could hardly discover from tho appearanco of the country that it was engaged in a serious con- flict. Tho crowdp in quest or amusement qre as large as ever. Able-bodied men of military age by the tens of thousands are to be seen, enjoying themselves. [The British ppblic Is vastly ignorant of what really is going on in the war. Small lpcal success are exaggerated, as arc reports of German exhaustion, so that the average Briton helieves that the war Is all but won'right now. If any one ventures a remark that all is not going as ft should, the answer, says this correspondent, is nine times out of ten: "Why doesn't France or Russia do something?" An officer 'ttscently returned from the front is quoted by the correspondent as say- ing: "Peoplp continually ask mo what the njen and, officers out ther-e say about the war. Thpy say only one thing: 'When.are.th«<people at home going to wake up to the fact that we are at war and really make a de- termined effort?'" This picture of British indifferenc.o, combined with overpptltpiom sourc- ed in lack of- information or mis-In- formation, makes, it fairly clear that any one in Kitchener's place lias bo- fore him. an Herculean task. If the .British public won't back him up, if the men who ought lo fight won't en- list, if the whole country leans back and leaves all: the work, to him. how can ho get the best of result! At this distance it appears that Kitchener's greatest ' mistake has been in the handling of the censor- ship. It has been more severe in Great Britain than in Prance. It has resulted in distorted reports in- a large majority of cases. The public doesn't know the .truth, and so it is difficult to make It realize the ser- iousness of t^e situation. If Kitch oner's press bureau issues a report indicating that the British are sweep- ing the Germans aside like to many flies, and If Kitchener at the same time declares there is. serious need of more men and more munitions how can. lie exftect to be tfvkeu ser- iously? Evidently the British complacency Is a sacred thing. Even in time of a prions war, it must not he jarred or jolted. The British conviction as to British.domination Of the world must not be allowed to falter, even if 'Eat ties be lost. And. Kitchener is a Brit- on of the Britons. >' > 4 m Au American correspondent in Bngland reports that the British are j heartily sick of the Belgian refugees -and take no pains to conceal the fact They are constantly complaining be- cause the Belgian refuges of military age are not fighting at the front.

Like school children on a picnic, the overwrought soldiers, after having dwelt for a -week under almost continuous fire, frolic in the woods as they vlo with each other ill finding the best piece of foliage which can be used as a rude nort of sponge or brush. The bathing train to Which they thon repair is made up of a string of nine baggage cars along the railroad line running from B to War- saw. The caTs are provided with steam pipes after the manner of a Turkish bath, and the floors are grooved, to let the water run off free- ly. Although each car easily ac- comodates thirty soldiers at a time, all nine cars are occupied day and night as one lot of men after another arrives for tho weekly bath, which is compulsory. The first stage of the bath is a dis- infecting car, where the soldiers leave tlieir clothes and rid themselves of the vermin- s After an hour in the Turkish bath the bathers proceed into a car at the other end of the train .wliere clean linep is supplied and where their disinfected uniforms have been brought to be claimed by checks. The soldiers finally emerge from the last car, shaved, sleek and smiling. - •—O WILL CELEBRATE FOURTH AT PARK RIVERSIDE PARK. WILL ATTRACT . .

D.—The state railway commission has entered several or- ders 011 hearings before them, one of state importance being 011 the comjib^lnt as to switching charges at different points in the state. Alter discussing tho charge for such ser- vice which runs so high at some places that teams are used rather than pay the demand of the railway companies, the commission fixes for local industrial switching on all pro ducts except grain, coal, ice, stoue, gravel sand and brick, a maximum of one cent per hundred weight, with a minimum of five dollars per car; on tho> products exempted above the maximum is three-.fourths of a cent per hundred weight, with a minimum of five dollars per c«ir. For local interchange switching from the tracks of one company to those of another, th^ same difference as to classes is made, with the same rate, and to this an additional charge of three dollars per car is air lowed "'to the receiving road.

BUYING. MUD AT T&ITOIIENBR

Tor the past week, 'Great; Britain has apparently been more Exercised aver attacks upon Lord Kitchener than, over the. campaign against the

.Germans. Evidently the storm- has been gathering for some time. " The British; have been doing, com paratlv ly little in. the'wa£ and certainly on land hare, made no progress of con­sequence. The British public was re­assured all winter Ivy the, promise that- the "war. would begin early Way.'' But whenythe early days May brought no.new offensive by the Allies, but instead a vigorous and |e«8t partly successful offensive the Gprmans, the British public, raj»-resenting the usual amount of hu-ipiiji nature, naturally was ready look, tor a scapegoat., The ruction tbe adp:|ralty between the chief,

4»mrci)Ul(. and the first: assistant and leader of the p^ctieal n^vy men, £fsher, brought to, a head a crisis

that was met by the proposed coali­

tion cabinet. It was argued that the

cabiuct in time of war should repre­

sent nil tho parties, and thus atten­

tion waB diverted for a time from

tho differences about tho conduct of

the 'War that' really "Compelled a re­

alignment. This of course was fol­

lowed by disillusions by public men

and by the press of the changes that

should be made in the cabinet. And

it wag inevitable that Kitchener

should be among those assailed.

For Kitchener lias been absolute

war lord in Groat Britain. The Brit­

ish people and parliament paid "him

a really fine compliment by giving

Utn) supreme power in all matters

pertaining t<f the war. Having given

him a free hand, the British natural­

ly expected much of Kitchener. At

the same, time the British have been

quite generally disposed to stand

back and "lot Kitchener do it." lie

has not had the co-operation he

should have had, but it is not easy

to convince the British public of this

fact.

It jiroliably is'true! that Kitchener

vas overestimated at the outset and

that he is underestimated by the

hioro vigorous of his critics at'this

time, lie seems not to be a brilliant

man, but a determined one. He i.s

perhaps given a little too much to

the practice of trying to do it all him­

self. lie doesn't court counsel. Prob­

ably ho is as- good a man for the

place as Britain has, but that is not

saying that he is a military genius.

Something of the oilier pid« of dil­

atory, something ol* the odds with

Which be lias to contend, is pointedly

developed in a letter to a Chicago

newspaper by a staff correspondent

now traveling in England. He writes

that, whereas in Prance every one

knows that war is on, that tremend­

ous sacrifices are being made and

that existence is at stake, in. Great

Britain one could hardly discover

from tho appearanco of the country

that it was engaged in a serious con­

flict. Tho crowdp in quest or

amusement qre as large as ever.

Able-bodied men of military age by

the tens of thousands are to be seen,

enjoying themselves. [The British

ppblic Is vastly ignorant of what

really is going on in the war. Small

lpcal success are exaggerated, as arc

reports of German exhaustion, so

that the average Briton helieves that

the war Is all but won'right now. If

any one ventures a remark that all

is not going as ft should, the answer,

says this correspondent, is nine times

out of ten: "Why doesn't France or

Russia do something?" An officer

'ttscently returned from the front is

quoted by the correspondent as say­

ing: "Peoplp continually ask mo what

the njen and, officers out ther-e say about the war. Thpy say only one thing: 'When.are.th«<people at home going to wake up to the fact that we are at war and really make a de­termined effort?'"

This picture of British indifferenc.o,

combined with overpptltpiom sourc-

ed in lack of- information or mis-In­

formation, makes, it fairly clear that

any one in Kitchener's place lias bo-

fore him. an Herculean task. If the

.British public won't back him up, if

the men who ought lo fight won't en­

list, if the whole country leans back

and leaves all: the work, to him. how

can ho get the best of result!

At this distance it appears that

Kitchener's greatest ' mistake has

been in the handling of the censor­

ship. It has been more severe in

Great Britain than in Prance. It has

resulted in distorted reports in- a

large majority of cases. The public

doesn't know the .truth, and so it is

difficult to make It realize the ser­

iousness of t^e situation. If Kitch

oner's press bureau issues a report

indicating that the British are sweep­

ing the Germans aside like to many

flies, and If Kitchener at the same

time declares there is. serious need

of more men and more munitions

how can. lie exftect to be tfvkeu ser­iously?

Evidently the British complacency

Is a sacred thing. Even in time of a

prions war, it must not he jarred or

jolted. The British conviction as to

British.domination Of the world must

not be allowed to falter, even if 'Eat

ties be lost. And. Kitchener is a Brit­

on of the Britons. >' > 4 m

Radzivilov, Polaud.—(Correspond­ence of The Associated Press)-Every day in the trenches around B west of Warsaw, sees detachments of isome 200 Russian soldiers scrambl­ing through the forest in the rear for nn evergreen sponge with which to. scrub their bodies, in a bathing train nearby. Like school children on a picnic, the overwrought soldiers, after having dwelt for a -week under almost continuous fire, frolic in the woods as they vlo with each other ill finding the best piece of foliage which can be used as a rude nort of sponge or brush.

The bathing train to Which they thon repair is made up of a string of nine baggage cars along the railroad line running from B to War­saw. The caTs are provided with steam pipes after the manner of a Turkish bath, and the floors are grooved, to let the water run off free­ly. Although each car easily ac­comodates thirty soldiers at a time, all nine cars are occupied day and night as one lot of men after another arrives for tho weekly bath, which is compulsory.

The first stage of the bath is a dis­infecting car, where the soldiers leave tlieir clothes and rid themselves of the vermin- s

After an hour in the Turkish bath the bathers proceed into a car at the other end of the train .wliere clean linep is supplied and where their disinfected uniforms have been brought to be claimed by checks. The soldiers finally emerge from the last car, shaved, sleek and smiling.

Pierre. S. D.—The state rai lway commission has entered several or­ders 011 hearings before them, one of s tate importance being 011 the comjib^lnt as to switching charges at different points in the state. Alter discussing tho charge for such ser­vice which runs so high at some places that teams are used rather than pay the demand of the rai lway companies, the commission fixes for local industr ial switching on al l pro ducts except grain, coal , ice, s toue, gravel sand and brick, a maximum of one cent per hundred weight, with a minimum of f ive dollars per car; on tho> products exempted above the maximum is three-.fourths of a cent per hundred weight, with a minimum of f ive dollars per c«ir .

For local interchange switching from the tracks of one company to those of another, th^ same difference as to classes is made, with the same rate, and to this an addit ional charge of three dollars per car is air lowed " ' to the receiving road. These rates to go into effect July first , .

On complaint from Frankfort , a night•!telephone service is ordered for the Dakota Central Telephone com­pany, with an incrase in rural l ine and business telephone connections to compensate the company for the addit ional expense entai led.

On the complaint as to freight ser­vice 011 the Great Northern rai lway between Watertown and Huron, the company is ordered to operate a freight t rain from Watertown to Huron, Monday of each week, and between Huron and Watertown Tues­day with a round tr ip Wednesday and Friday, no service beiug requir­ed Saturday and Tbursda>
