WHEN AND HOW WILL WAR END.

Shortly after the began the Manufacturers Record ed

cation for changing that view.
Without pretending any gift of prophecy the Manufact
Record would offer the following speculative suggestions
The European will last two years longer
Germany and Austria will not only have to far as
money repay all that the has cost Belgium and France
Germany will lose Aace and Lorraine and possibly some
additional territory. Moreover they will have to ndem
nifty of not less than ten billion dollars.
Constantinope will fall to Russia and Turkey will be dsmem
bered and the Turkish power driven out of Europe.
The Hohenzolern and Hapsburg dynes will be boted out
these families who at the close of the v
ing will probably be imprisoned for life and perhaps of them
may be executed
Many of the officials responsible for murder in the killing
of the English and others will have the penalty with
their lives 1t will then be too late to appeal for They
showed mercy and doubt any mercy will be shown to
them The leaders who took the sword in the campaign to
quer Europe will themselves perish by the sword
In the end Germany will become republic and the good peO

GOOD ADVICE.

In his speech at Detroit recently Mr. Hughes launched the
major part of his argument against the administration the
basis of changes in the diplomatic service
LET me tell you' he said "ths country will never be
woy represented to take its place properly among nations if
men are appointed merely to satisfy partisan Obligations and
there no ideal of continuity of service diplomatic inter-
course"
Does anyone consider that this promise by Mr.
Hughes to retain all the present ncumben in the diplomatic
service should he be elected?
Further in his speech he protested vehementy against the
policy Of dispacng experienced by inexperienced He
is right and he will find that the people of this country will fol-
