student of world history knows that
Russia can not and will not be elm
mated from the councils of nations
when the final settlement of this ire
mendous struggle will be undertaken.
The eyes of the Muscovite have been
rivited upon the city at the straits for
over two centuries, it being the only
way for Russia to reach open water at
all seasons of the year via the Med
iteranean Sea. Let us also remember
that twice in the 18th century Russia
and Austria discussed the possible di-
vision Of the land of the Sultan on
Europe, only to be stopped by the at
titude of resentment taken by Eng
land. In the light of past history it
is not to be expected that the country
of the Gar will submit to the shatter-
ing of long cherished hope at the
hands of German strategists. While
it is true that at present Germany has
been very successful in her campaign
ing, yet there is possibility that her
Balkan invasion will end in disappoint-
ment for the central powers.
1t is barely possible that the coming
spring campaign will find Germany in
very trying position to defend
front won by bloodshed, unparalleled
in the history of the world with an
army insufficient for the task, no mat
ter how brave this army may be.
The coming Of winter gives to the
harrassed Allies ample opportunity to
recuperate and strengthen their lines,
while the central powers must watch
every inch of ground won at so much
sacrifice. The supply of men in any
nation is limited and it seems that Ger
many and Austria Hungary have
about exhausted this supply. The
other day we received communica-
tion from a reliable source informing
us of the drafting Of professor in a
German college into the army, the
last support of the family, four sons
already serving under the flag and the
youngest a lad of only IA. This is
! only an isolated case coming to our
knowledge, yet we know from men who
have been at the front that in most of

Much has developed lately in the
East showing more and more the real
motive of the dreadful carnage Of the
European war. German arms have
successfully overcome the Balkan
trouble, which had disturbed the mind
of Bismark in the COS. The elimina-
ton of Serbia from the checkerboard
of nations, the enforced neutrality OF
Greece and Roumania, the friendship
of Turkey, all have combined to open
the door to the East for German ex-
pansion dreams. Thus almost by mag
ic the, American westward Ho!" has
been changed by the German nation
to new slogan, Eastward Ho!
While the allied powers hesitated as
to which of them should wear the
laurels of the Turkish campaign and
enter Constantinople first, Germany
and Austria, assisted by the Bulgars
and the cruel Turk, have turned the
tables upon their enemies in the Gal
lipolis campaign, and it seems only 9
question of time when English anC
French troops must retire from the
eastern theater of war. It is indeed
a quaint brotherhood in arms, the
frank Teuton and treacherous, willy
Ottoman fighting side by side in the
trenches. Still the student of polit
ical history is not surprised at the turn
of affairs in the near East, in-as-mucl

ed steppes as well as her immense for
est and mining industry is a great
temptation to Germany. Still the
Monroe Doctrine, SO hateful to the
Kaiser has proven a great boon to the
United States. Expansion westward
is impossible this much being revealed
by the present struggle. France can
not be made to yield an inch of soil
to the invaders. Belgium, already
over-peopled, offers no asylum to the
German emigrants. Russia, enormous
ly rich yet undeveloped, could never
be absorbed by German "Kultur".
England is still the mistress Of the
seas in spite of German submarine
warfare, SO costly to English mer-
chants.
AS we stated in a former article
this war was the outgrowth of German
expansion ideas, hence new outlet
must be found by the way Of the Dar.
danelles. The disappointment of the
Kaiser at the stubborn resistance o1
the Allies along the French frontiers
the new aggressive movement of Rus
sia, supplemented by Japanese arm'
and ammunition, not only checking
Won Hindenburg's drive at Riga anC
in Courtland, but virtually placing
Germany's great eastern army on th'
defensive, was shaped by the Counci
of War called at Vienna. The out
come was the shifting of the war t.
the Balkans, even at the expense o
the Turkish ally, who at present be

via b way lay open down into the rich
and yet little developed provinces
along the Persian gulf. True, Turk
ey may not willingly accede to the
demands of her Teuton ally, but it
must not be forgotten that the Turkey
of the present century is bankrupt and
fights her battles with German money
and under the leadership Of German
officers. German banks are the f.
nancial stronghold of the Ottoman EN-
pire, even the great State Bank at
Stamboul being run by German fnan-
ciers.
Well do we remember the Kaiser's
visit to Turkey and Constantinople as
we'll as Jerusalem in 1898. The Ger
man press at that time dwelt much
upon the religious fervency Of this
strange expedition to the Holy Land.
The world has been watching develop
ments. 1t must not be forgotten that
this trip was crowned witch wonderful
success, for the friendly Sultan ceded
thousands of acres of Turkish soil for
the building of a railroad by German
capitalists to Bagdad, connecting the
city at the Golden Horn by way of the
rich valley of the Tigris and Euphra-
tes with the Persian Gulf.
What is the meaning of this great
undertaking? If Germany can obtain
/ Constantinople as part pay for her
help to rid the Ottoman Empire of he1
foes, magnificent outlet is at once
opened for Germany's commercial de-
velopment and colonization, destroy
ing the hopes of the British and Rus;
sian expansionists in that direction
thus virtually placing Germany in 6
position, with Constantinople in hel
hand, to have direct communication
between Berlin and the Gulf of Per
sia. Shades of Frederick the Great

German diplomats.
To materialize this great conceptio
of world dominion demands the al
sorption of Servia, or at least divi
ion of the same among the neutr;
Balkan states, the possession Of Coz
stantinople either as German ba'
of operation or at least under Ge
!. manized rule.
) Will the German strategists succee
in this grand scheme? We hard
think so, for Russia must be reckont

DRUGS SHOULDN'T BE HIGH

The boosting of the selling prices
of drugs, in most instances, is the
work of greedy American manufac-
turers, who are taking advantage of
non-competitive conditions in this
country, and is not because of the
war, so Professor William Mcpherson,
head of the chemistry department of
the Ohio State university, declares.
Glycerine has jumped from 16 cents
to 60 cents a pound, and Mcpherson
said there is no excuse for this be-
cause glycerine is made in large guam
titles in this country. If the advance
in common drugs continues they will
become luxury which people of or
dinary mean, will not be able to af-
ford.

boulder or splinter and knocked
unconscious. He has decided not
to call a jury,
Because his street car tickets

that the man had come to his
