But the idea is beginning to pene-
trate the Tueton's head that this is not
war of victories, but a wpr of e..
termination for his species. We in
England are better informed on this
point than we were a year ago.
When a whole nation goes into the
trenches there can be no victories:
there can only be killing, and at least
three nations desire greedilv that the
Teuton be killed in retail. since he can
not be killed in wholesale.
The Germans cannot withdraw from

and winning victories. or by staying

we have made to avoid it,

be thst as soon as civilization is dis
armed she will not throw herself on
US again? The moral law directing her
life compels her to do so.
That is why her ships cannot be al
lowed to go to sea again. She cannot
wage any more war than she is now
waging, because she Is engaged on all
possible fronts. She can defend and
consolidate her conquests. but what
good is consolidation when she perpet-
ually has to throw men into the fringe
of fire burning all around her?
Allah has decreed that she shall
perish by her own act. from the con.
sequences of the law that she processes
and through her own temperament If
the allies had won five or six months
ago they would have left Germany still
capable of regaining her lines.
No Germany will remain. This may
sound extravagaEt. but all that will re-
main will be few people living on the
eternal defensive in moral, social and
political trenches. Grant that every
thing in Germany favors a defensive

President Wilson and his Secretary
OF War, Mr.. Garrison, were in full
accord upon the plans to enlarge our
army and make 1t more efficient. The
disagreement between the two arose
over the fact that the President was
unwilling to undertake to force his per-
sonal views and those of his Secretary
OF War upon Congress. The impotence
of Mr.. Garrison with the views of Con-
gress does not commend him as a man
suited for the large responsibilities of
the important station he held at this
time. and there are few regrets that
his resignation was promptly accepted
by the President. There will soon be
selected man who will fill the position
as well, if not better, than the retiring
official. The country has little patience
and thinks little of the patriotism of
of an officer who is so selfish in his
opinion and who is not willing to con-
cede something to his associates in the
working out of the great problems, like
the increase of our army and navy. IL
is indeed satisfaction. that the great
American public, without regard TO
party. is standing behind the President
and have responded to his patriotic words
and there is no further doubt that the
army and navy will be rapidly increas-
ed, to that point which the liberties of
the individual and the large property
rights of this country can be protected
and preserved against any attack that
may be made against US. The blessi- $
enjoyed by the American people have
been purchased at too great sacrifice
TO trust TO the fairness and justice as
interpreted by outside world. The oc-
easional resigning of member of the
Cabinet will in no wise retard the Pres.
ldent in his patriotic work nor shake
the confidence Of his high purposes
in the minds Of the American people.

The bill in the General Assembly to

tiers not what opinion is held by any
democrat upon this subject, no criticism
can be justly made for the position
taken by the Governor and his Ad-
ministration. Governor Stanley. both

campaign proceeding the November

Kentucky that he favored a further
trial of the Cuunty-Unit law before the

constituents before the August Primary
that they would favor the Statewide
Amendment, and this before the demo-
cratic platform was made and these
members felt that their personal pied
ges We're more binding than the party
platform. Our Representative. Mr..
Clay Kaufman. has been voting with
the Administration upon all other ques.
tons, except this. and now states that
he had promised some of his constitu-
ents before the primary that he would
vote IN favor of a submission, if elect
ed, and carried out his promise. The
number of votes cast by democratic
members for the amendment indicates
the strong sentiment in the party
favoring vote on this question and be

submission of the question is not far
distant, and it is our personal opinion
that it will be best for the party to let
