TIE CRISIS N EUROPE

BY menacng Servia and provoking Russia

great powers on both sides that they can be drawn
into general European war
The Triple Entente and the Triple Alliance
arc engines for peace no less than for war France
and Great Britain on the one hand and Germany
and Italy on the other, each have their own inter

common interest OF all must be to avoid war that
would drench the continent OF Europe in blood
and insure the eventual bankruptcy OF six great
nations. says the New York World.
The instinct of seli-preservation # no higher
motive, should prompt tho allies OF Austria and the.
allies OF Russia to play the part OF peacemakers in
the present emergency. That in all the years Of
their existence the Triple Entente and the Triple
Alliance have maintained peace, in spite OF ever
recurring Ieaousies and antagonists between their
individual members is proof of the restraining in
iuence they exercise
