The latest reports from the Euro
pean- war zone complicate conditions
to a considerable extent. 1t is re-
ported that the Beers in South
Africa are preparing to strike for
their liberty, and this would cripple
England. An unconfrmed rumor is
to the effect that Portugal has
joined the allied forces. Meantime
the Germans appear to be holding
their own, and the allies continue
to battle brayely and show no sign
of weakening. Nine nations are now
actively engaged in the struggle,
and, if the Beers and Portuguese
enter the conflict, eleven will be
engaged in the stupendous war.

necessity for "war taxi at this

election pledges is deserving of no
consideration at the hands of the
people. Extravagant management of
national affairs is merely one in
stance of democratic inconsistency,
and their Baltimore platform of
promises when compared to their
performance furnishes several strik-
ing instances Of forgotten pledges.
