Is now being vleifted for 'ho iremonduus effects?*?!! hat brought about, territorial, ?conomie and po litical in that locality. Polish <tusr fcrs here have summed up some of these changes, drawing ' their data Inrgly from the writings cf i{. Dinow dkl, for many years the Warsaw mem ber of the Rmsslaa Duma and the spokesman there for the Polish ele ment. While a member of the Duma, j Mr. Dniowskl hu.< been a severe erl- J tie of the ltui>xlau regime, so thai his view of conditions has the apparent merit of being Independent whil at the same time it conies from one In timately familiar with the country which the Germans have up overrun. Some of the more striking changes resulting from the German occupa tion are these; The three branches of Poland now united under German authority.? German Poland. Austrian Poland and Russian Poland?have a population that gives Poland sixth place, ia p>lnt of rank, among the power; of Eu rope. It cbmea next to Italy, and exceeds in numbers an the Balkan states put together?Bulgaria. Serbia, Greece and Rumania; exceeds nls> nil the Scandinavian and Dutch coun tries unRed?Norway, Sweden.

Ger many and Austria. Some of the British observers com pare tho urea of German occupation with that of the allies in South Africa and the Pacific islands. But the latter are tropical wastes! re cently taken over for colonization, whereas Mr. Dmowski shows that Poland is one of the most densely lnhabltated sections of Europe, aver aging 35 persons to tho square kilo meter, or more than the thickly pop ulated districts of France. It Is also one of the richest sections of Rus sia, with extensiv? banking, indus trial aud commercial organizations, coal mines and agriculture, largely In the hands of the Polish Inhabitants. Even the policy of Faisslanlzlng the Polish districts, which has been car ried on for some years, has not .changed the character of the native people, which remains strongly Po Tho three SfeTt? oe\thls extensive 'Polish reg?,??,'-' now brought togtiier are: Prussian** Poland,.

Vilna, Grodno, Minsk, Mobllew and Vitebsk, having a eonglomorate population of little and white PusslauB. Poles, i Lithuanians und Rutheulans. These are the three great Polish branches which are now wholly or largely un der German control. Tin- regime which the Germans will set up in Russian Poland is being awaited with the keenest interest by the Polish element as it will deter mine whether the policy will be to re compile the Poles and bring the three branches together again, or to use this rich region for German colonization; gradually Germanizing it and extin guishing the si'iiarnte Polish spirit. Thin larter has been t < policy of Rus sia, and the difficulties it bus had af ter years of effort indicates the diffi culties ahead for the German re gime, whichever course it adopts. 'Mr. Dmowski sums up Poland's position under Pussia as thai of a military occupation, with all the ad ministration at Warsaw and else* where carried on by Russian officials, the schools and universities, con ducted by Russian teachers and teach ing the Russian language, the police entirely Russian, und t'.ie whole di rection of affairs in Russian hands. And yet,, he adds, after forty years of Prussian effci't, Pohlnd still re mains distinctly Polish, with the greut business institutions, commerce and agriculture carried on by Poles. "It is exactly for this reason," he Bays, "that Poland is In one of tie; strongest positions that can be Ima gined; the state which possesses i: does not know what to do with it; I*. has not found the menus of trans forming it into a Russian country, and it does not wish to permit it to be come a Polish country." This Is tho problem which the new Germnn regime will have to deal with, and which the Kassians have not been able to solve. As showing how Poland .has sucdeoded tin re sisting Riisslnnlzation, Mr. Dmow ski cites the curious fact that while Russian officials controlled the elec tion machinery. Polish votes sent iBolld Polish delegations to the Duma. At one time, in the second Duma, they had 46 votes, and held almost a balance of power in passing the bud get. In order to put a stop to such Polish authority, the number of dele gates from Polcnd was cut to 12 a portion of them being elected to re present tho whole people and a por tion representing the Russians. For example the goy?rnni?nt of Vlfna elects ' five delegates for the whole, population and two for the Prussian population, so that, in the Duma feiere are two sets of Polish delegates, one representing the whole people of Po land,' 'With Mr. Dmowski for some years at the head of tho delegation, and another set elected from the same places to represent the Russians. These are the peculiar Internal conditions which are now coming un der German authority, at least during the mllita.'y occupation, during which it is expected that a German civil re gime will be set up In place of the Russian administration. And in view of Russia's experience, Interest Is cen tering on whether Germany will fol low a similar course of Germanizing the Polish territory, or will seek to reconcile the poles by bringing their three branches together under some form of autonomous government. Qalutlng the Quarter-Deck. Every timo an officer or a seaman goes upon the quarter-deck he salutes it. He never by any chance forgets this, one of the regular customs on board, says Pearson's Weekly. The quarter-deck Is that part of the deck reserved by officers, and many people think that the reason why it is sa luted Is out of respect for those of ficers. The why and wherefore of the saluting has a far more Interesting origin than that, however, and one has to go back hundreds of years to find the beginning of the custom In the old days a crucifix used to stand on tho quarterdeck. In those days all tho sailors were Catholics, and, of course, every time they approached the crucifix they crossed themselves to show their reverence for the holy symbol. It is many a long year ago since the crucifix was there, but the custom of saluting tho quarterdeck, which was a result of It, has been handed down in the navy ever space. Investigate, Anyway. "Mr. Speaker," quoth tho member of the house. "I would like to ask If there are any committees Investigating any thing?" "There are none," replied speaker. It was a moment of tntonse though curr^ssed excitement. "I move," exclaimed the member with deep feeling, "the appointment of a committee to investigate why nothing Is being investigated. If the condi tions are become such that there Is nothing to Investigate, they should be met with appropriate legislation.**? Puck. Given Away.

"The chief executive of a state has not a more serious duty nor graver responsibility than the obligation Im posed upon him In dealing with pris oners?and by prisoners I mean to j include those in jail awaiting trial. "A state or a nation that allows its prisoners to suffer cruelties is guilty of n greater crime than, the prisoners themselves have committed. "We have prisons and prison meth ods In the United States today which are a disgrace to any civilisation. "W ien I assumed the Office of gov ernor of South Carolina, I innugural d In my state the parole system, and granted hundreds of paroles. I was us vigorously condemned on the one hand and as heartily praised on tho other, for nearly every decl" reached upon each individual case, as any man who has ever been In public life In the history of this coun try, I cared not for t le condemnation or the praise. The parole system which I Inaugurated was entirely suc cessful. Out of the hundreds of pa roles granted, very few failed to lead good lives. "I believe more firmly today than ever before In th parole system as the most advance-1 step that has ever been taken In prison reform. "I believe that the whipping of prisoners should be forbidden except In cases of wilful disobedience of rul ed or acts of insubordination, and that then the whipping should be administered only in the presence of disinterested citizens of good repute who are not connected in any way, directly or indirectly with the Institu tion. The people of the nation would be horrified If they knew of the fearful brutality practiced In our prisonR? the merciless whippings, the electric shocks, and other forms of shocking 'cruelty. "In the majority of cases the family of a prisoner suffers more than the prisoner himself. It seems to me that much of this suffering could be re lieved by paying to the dependent family of a prisoner a small compen sation for the prisoners labor. Second Class.
