The Rech, leading Petrograd (St.
Petersburg newspaper, anticipating
negotiations for peace in the near flu
ture, editorially discusses the probable
terms of final settlement as follows:
The war must be terminated in
such way that it shall leave no
vengeful associations on either side.
The changes in the map of Europe
must be final, and no nationality must
legitimate ambition.
This ideal, however, is irreconcil-
able with the hegemony of Prussia in
Germany Further, it is irreconcilable
with the division of Poland and the
treaty of Bucharest.
THE indications of Russia, Italy,
Germany, Roumania and Servia must
be completed. France must receive
what has been taken from her, and
Bulgaria also.

Probably if the Germans had to
fight the war over again they would
not waste much time with Liege or
Namur. Instead they would do as
they did at Maubeuge, invest the forts
with a sufficient force to isolate the
defenders until their siege guns could
batter down the defenses, while the
main army marched on. Something
of the same thought seems to have
occurred to the French, who are now

Schmidt Speaks.
Speaking of the resolutions, and of
the attitude of the prohibition party
toward the HObson constitutional
amendment. now before congress,
State Chairman Schmidt had this to
say:
The prohibition party believes in
the constitutional amendment plan OF
securing national prohibition, but goes
step farther in declaring for the
election of a friendly administration
TO enforce the organic law of the land.
More than ink on paper is required to
get effective prohibition; it takes a
big stick. Optimistic non-partisan
agitatorS frequently leave the impress
sion that the constitutional amend
ment plan removes the question from
politics
Nothing, however, is farther from
the actual fact than this statement.
The liquor traffic is deeply rooted in
the sub-soil of our country's politics:
retains is power by eternal vigilance
IN the bi-annual battle of ballots, and
with its millions of money and hench-
men will defy to the last stand the or
ganized forces of righteousness, rec
ognizing that the political party in
power Is the government in operation,
our only hope lies in uniting at the
ballot box and elecring an administra.-
ton to make prohibition more effect
