FIRST YEAR OF WAR
ENDS IN GERMAN VICTORY

The first year of the European war
has closed with the fall Of Warsaw.
which city has been captured by the
Germans. This is by long odds the
greatest victory of the years fighting
and will have a tremendous moral eff
feet upon the nations of the earth to
Germany s advantage.
Kaiser William is quoted as saying
that be will now be able to release
hundreds of thousands of troops in Po-
land, which will be rushed to the west
ern front and be used in cleaning up
the Allies fighting in that section. But
that remains to be seen. 1t seems pro
bable, however, that France and Bel
GUM have already placed nearly their
full lighting strength in the field,
which, with the scanty assistance rem
dered by England, has been unable to
make Roadway against a fraction of
the German army. Unless England and
Italy a now throw large reinforce
ments in the field, it looks az though
the Kaiser words will prove true.
The great surprise Of the present war
has been the sorry figure cut by Great
Britain. For some reason or other she
has been unable thus far to raise an
army Of any considerable strength, but
with her country separated from the
wal zone only by the breadth Of the
English Channel and her territory men.
aeed with invasion, the people may
wake up and a sufficient number of
men enlist for service to make a show
ing against the victorious German
troops.

BUT ONE ISSUE IN
NEXT YEAR CAMPAIGN

Leaders Of the Democratic and Pro.
gressive parties are talking about the
vital issues Of the coming Presidential
campaign. The Democrats say, first
that the principal issue win be the en-
dorsement Of the Wilson administrs-
ton, and in this they are correct. But
they 90 farther and talk about the
tariff, the war, the Mexican situation,
and other issues. Victor Murdoch,
head Of the Progressive party, says the
coming election will be fought out On
the tariff issue.
All these questions viii enter into
the campaign only as a secondary con
sideration. The main issue, the one
which will decide the election, viii be
Wilson and anti. Wilson. A portion Of
the Democratic party viii stand for
Wilson, while a large percentage Of
voters Of that political faith, with Re.
publicans and former Progressives, will
vote for any candidate put in the field
by the Republican party.
Mr.. Wilson seems TO have a firm hold
on his party machinery and should be
nominated by reclamation at the Dem
ocratic convention. All Republicans are
hoping that nothing viii happen during
the coming year to cause him to lose
has grip. Were the election to be held
Tuesday, it is not probable that
he could poll to exceed t~wo-thirds Of
his party strength.

Kingdoms Greatest Interest Is

BY G. GORDON SMITH.

Bale, May 2.-The gradual mobilizs-
ton and concentration OF the Italian
army, which has been going on meth
odically for the last few weeks, Is fol-
lowed with the closest attention in
Switzerland. On the movements and
positions of King Victor Emmanuels
troops will depend tho concentration
and positions OF the Swiss troops
guarding the frontier.
Despite the fact that leading italian
military authorities declare that the
Trentino is only an object OF second
airy military Importance and that the
essential aim is Trieste and the mas
terry Of the Adriatic, it is certain that
Italy will try to assure herself OF the
possession OF the mountain bastiCns in
the Trentino, from which Austria
threatens her.
Italy has two directions Of attack

ITALIAN WAR PARTY
REGAINS CONTROL

noticing the residence OF the repre-
sentative Of Emperor Francis Joseph.
The Italian people were informed
that the government had denounced the
Triplc Alliance and that Austria had
offered inadequate concessions, which
were made in part only after the de-
nunciation OF the Triple Alliance.
These concessions comprised the Prov
ince Of Trent, Eastern Friuli, with Go
rizia and Gradiska, and some Of the
Dalmatian islands, besides the relative
freedom of the city of Trieste.
On learning this the Italians almost
unanimously rose against the alleged
attempt of ex-Premier Giolitti 10 pre-
vent the accomplishment OF the policy
inaugurated by Premier Sslandra. They
demanded in most unmistakable man
ncr that preparations aiming at war
against Austria be pursued until the
national aspirations were realized.
Some went so far as TO declare that If
war against Austria were abandoned
the result would be war at home.
In Rome the military measures to-
day were on vaster scale than ever.
All the streets leading TO the Chamber
Of Deputies, the Austrian and German
embassies and the nome Of ex-Premier
Giolitti were strongly guarded by
troops with hxed bayonets. Cavalry
patrolled the streets and artillery was
stationed at various points.
Six thousand students met at the
university and were harangued by the
professors. including the rector. They
then marched in procession with flags
flying, shouting for war and Italy.
Milan Declares Strike.
A strike has been proclaimed at
Milan as a protest against the course
Of political events in Italy, and troops
are occupying all the strategical points
il the city.
When the people in Milan heard that

Death 10 Emperor William" Death

"llurrah for the revolution" Down
with all traitors."
Leaflets were distributed on the
streets bearing the words Death 10

The ridiculous and unjustihed fear
Of common action by Austria and
Switzerland, in virtue OF a mysterious
secret treaty which for years past has
found expression in section OF the
Italian press, is in itself a proof OF
Italy's intention not to violate SWISS

Game Not Worth the Candle.
This fear. however, in the present
political situation in Italy seems un-
founded Not that the movement as
such might not be profitable, put the
game is not worth the candle. Inc I'M
mense dangers 10 which IT would ex.
pose the Italian army would be out OF
proportion to the limited advantages II
would procure. ,..,
The Swiss frontier would directly
flank and cover the left OF the Italian
army on its march on the Irentino;
The traversing Of the Engadine would
transform this cover into hostlIe
front not only on the line separating
the Canton Of Grisons from the Waite
line. but along the whole territory OF
the Confederation to the Saint Bernard
and Mount Dolent.
This Is an uninterrupted succession
Of mountain passes for a distance Of
27O kilometres, guarded by the bayo-
nets Of thousands Of sturdy SWISS, able
TO measure themselves against the best
of the Italian "Alpini." These passes
are those Of Splugen- Bernardin, OF

Of the massive Simplon, Monte Moro,
the passages of the glaciers which lie
between Mount Rosa and the. Combin,
and. finally, the Saint Bernard and the
neghboring valleys. go.
Italy would be obliged TO immobilize
along the Swiss frontier three or four
army CORPS at the very moment that
the march by the Trentino and the
4 Tvrol would call for an effort taxing
/ all her energy. Switzerland can there
/ fore be without anxiety; the generals
on the Italian General staff are too
/ intelligent not to have measured all
the risks Of such an adventure. HaY-
ing already to surmount the difhcultles
+ of an Austrian frontier unfavorable TO
their left. they will not commit the
folly Of prolonging this frontier on
/ their rear by deliberately adding 300.
900 Swiss soldiers 10 the forces OF their
enemy.
Italy Wants Swiss Neutral.
II was not for nothing that at the
beginning Of the war the Italian gov,
ernment informed the Swiss Federal
! Council that il added its signature 70
those Of the contracting powers which
/ in 1915 recognized the neutrality OF
Switzerland. This was sssuredly an
act of friendship and confidence. but
was at the same time an act dictated
by Italy's interests and by the strategic
significance to which the Italian Cen
eral staff undoubtedly drew the atten-
ton of the government.
For the Italians a neutral Swiss
frontier reduces TO a minimum the
