been definitely abandoned, and
that the German army is hereaf-
ter to give much more attention
they are to the allies in the west.
So far from its base of sup
plies it has been difficult mat
ter for the German army to get q
sufficient supply of food to main
tain it. and from several sources
have come hints that the army
was not only weary from continu-
al fighting but that part of the
time it has been hungry, too. To
increase its distress it is further
reported that it ran short of am
munition.
In the river Disc. last week, one
hundred and fifty canal barges
with ammunition for the western
army are said to have been cap
tured by the French. and. if so,
this would seem to explain the
German shortage of ammunition.
An army can't fight without am
munition. no matter how valiant
it is. and perhaps the loss of this
ammunition had as much to do
with their retreat as the increased
strength of the allies did.
But the war is not wore, and the
Germans may come back. A rest
and fresh supply of food and
ammunition may make them as
fit as ever to take the offensive
again. Paris may yet fall into the
hands of the mighty Germans.
Who knows?

PEACE FAR DISTANT

The attention of those Opti-
mistic souls who have cherished
the delusion that the war would
soon be over is directed to the
significance of the agreement
signed last week by Great Britain,
France and Russia. by which each
nation binds itself not to conclude
peace separately. This means
plainly that there can be no end
nor partial end of the war until
Germany whips all three of the
allies or the allies crush Germany.
Austro-Hungary has not yet
shown that it need be seriously
considered as a factor in the
struggle.
Germany has given the strong
est evidence of it's military
strength and fighting spirit.
There will be no surrender on the
part Of the Kaiser so long as
there are men left to bear arms.
Only mutiny of the army, re-
fusal of the peasants and me-
chanics to fight longer. will strike
the German colors while there are
any left to rally around them. But
on the other hand. the allies re-
sources in men, money and food
stuffs vastly overshadow Ger
many's strength. and in the long
run those advantages are bound
to weigh heavily. Tt is evident that
Europe is destined to drain the
cup of devastation and misery to

MEETING THE DEFICIT

The United States treasury has

which would probably be suffic-
lent to meet the revenue deficit
occasioned by the European war
for the next six months. The
treasury balance, however, is on
deposit. subject to call, in the
banks: it's withdrawal. gradually
or entirely. would result in cur
tailment of credits and a further
ing unsettling of business condi-
tions that should. by all means,
be avoided. Hence President WIZ
sons call upon Congress for adj
ditional taxation to meet the fin
ancial requirements of the gov
eminent is sound. A less candid
President would probably defer
any such suggestion until after
election. But that is not the Will
son way. He is frank with the peo-
pie. and the people are not unap-
.preciative of his straightforward
ness. Many of them undoubtedly
believe. as we do. that additional
taxation should be obviated en-
tirely were Congress to exercise
vigorous economy in expendi-
lures, but they will realize that it
is pretty late in the season for the
beginning Of a campaign of re-
trenchment. and that the situation
calls for prompt action.

"oN THE ,IoRn

President Wilson's decision not
to devote any time to swinging
around the circle in the interest
of party victory in the coming

man. Mr.. Wilson's high sense of

PROGRESSIVE PRAISES wills

In his speech in Kansas City,
the other night, opening the state
campaign for the Progressives,
Henry j. Allen declared for the
new rule in county and state af-
fairs. defended President Wilson's
administration in it's Mexican and
other policies. and declared tho.
the new spirit in politics called
for the elimination of politics
from local and state offices.
1.-THE only argument that is
made for the amalgamation of the
progressive and republican par
ties is thatunitedwe can whip the
democrats That has been the aim
of all our political activities as
far back as l can remember. That
is the reason we have made such
slow progress in the development
of government. Has it occurred to
you that possibly the democrats
do not deserve to be whipped? If
Woodrow Wilson carries out his
program and succeeds in doing
what everyone comedies that he is
trying to do, possibly the Ameri-
can people will demand his re-
election and why shouldn't they?
That is the new idea, the new
spirit in politics.

government. rather than the par
ty."

"numANlzEp" WARFARE

With the daily reports of great
battles in which hundreds Of
thousands of men are engaged
and enormous losses sustained by
both sides. it seems absurd to
designate the present war. the
greatest in the history of the
world. as also the most human"
Yet such is declared to be the fact
by eminent surgeons. The "hu-
manity" consits in the propor-
ton of killed and wounded to the
total number participating. the
character of the wounds inflicted
and the number killed outright or
MORALLY wounded as compared
with the number dying from dis
eight soldiers died from disease
to one from wounds. 1t is estimat-
ed that in the war in progress the
ratio will be about three to one.
Those who die will die more
quickly and with much less suff-
ering. Gangrene and infection will
be practically unknown.
Army sanitation has improved
vastly in the last half century, and
especially in the last is years.
The United States learned a cost
ly lesson in the Spanish-Ameri-
can war, when preventable dis
ease caused most of the losses on
our side. That lesson was duly alb
sorbed by European governments.
whose army surgeons have in
stalled many remarkable innova-
tons for the prevention of cpl
denies of typhoid. dysentery and
other destrOyerS of armies more
deadly than artillery.
While the American Civil war
marked the beginning of great adj
Vancements in surgery and the
treatment Of wounds. it remained
for the RussO-Japanese war to
set a precedent for the ''humaniz-
i""" of gunShOt wounds. Before
that great conflict the armies the
world over used a large calibre
bullet. made of unsheathed lead
and creased to overcome friction
was less than half that of the
missiles now employed. The
bullets which are flying in Eur
oDe today are of less diameter
than the ordinary lead pencil.
They are iacketed with nickel or
steel. and have tremendous velo-
city. The wounds they make are
clean cut and the ball frequently
goes through the bone tissue
without splintering. whereas the
soft. mush-rooming bullet of the
old day resulted in the SCATTERING
f bones and the crushing rather
than cutting of tissues. Infection
was almost inevitable. the grease
being especially unsanitary. The
death rate among the wounded
was enormous. Amputations to-
day are very rare compared with
wars of so years or more ago.
Thus it will be seen that. in
spite of the larger armies engag-
ed. there are not likely to be any
battles in the present war that will
outrival in blood shed and suffer-
ing inflicted at Antietam. Gettys-
burg and other stupendous en-
gagements of our own great
struggle. There is little conso-
llation in the thought that some
of the horrors of war have been
''humanized'' out of the dreadful
game. What pity that the hu-
maniZing could not have gone the
full length, by abolishing war
completely. before the Kings and
EmperOrs of Europe determined
to battle the continent in blood.
