sALoNIkI HOLDS THE KEY.

AS is observed by the Danville Reg
lister, if the Entente Allies real!y
have three-quarters of a million OF
soldiers ready to take the offensive
with Saloniki as their base, it is not
unlikely that thence will start the
move, which will avenge the WRONGS
of Serbia, enforce against Bulgaria
a terrible, penalty for her racial
treachcry, drive wedge of steel be-
tween Turkey and her Teutonic allies
omen the back door both by land ana
sea to Constantinople, and reduce the
two Germanic empires to reliance on
their own resources of men and sup
plies.
There is no play on the wide chess
hoard of war which if successfully
executed would promise more I'M
mediate or far-reaching results. 1t
would be cooperative, though at Il
long distance, with the thrusts thaE
Russia is making from two points
d'appui on the vital lines OF Ottoman
defence, would almost certainly emu
Rouma,,ia's precarious neutrality and
bring her fine army into the Held On
the side of the Allies, and would PM
ouietus on pro-German agitation IN
Greece, AS an example of grand
strategy it would cast into the shade
any operation yet undertaken by eitl1-
or of the belligercnts, for it wou'o
have the prospect Of entirely dislr-
tegrating the elaborate plans OF tbs
Germanic league on all the theatres
of war, and would in all likelihood
compel the Kaiser either to abandon
Bulgaria and Turkey to their fate, o
20 relinquish his grasp of those. a"
s:isitions in the West, for retention
of which he has paid an almost inca,
culable price in blood. From Salonik
lead the roads that pierce the hear

DIPLOMACY THAT TAILED"

s'Thc chief function of diplomacy
is prevention" says Mr.. Hughes, in
assailing the Presidents foreign pol
icy, "and in this our diplomacy fail
ed. (" Let US see if it did, says the New
York World:
.. Karl H. Won Wiegand, CORES
pondent in Berlin, is at the western
front where the most terrific battle
of modern history is in progress. In
his dispatch from the German head
quarters printed day or two ago
there was this vivid description of a
hospital scene:
at was sizzling hot day. The Red
Cross flags floated lazily, many of
them presenting depressing and
gruesome picture. The white-apron-
ed surgeons were working over the
operating tables, calmly and coolly,
steady with knife or needle, even
where the places were under fire.
Black and white lie sometimes TO-
gcthcr, the bluish-gray of the French,
the yellow khaki Of the English, tire
grcenish field gray of the Germans,
side by side. The anguish and misery
of suffering and pain transforms
enemies of few hours ago into Il
common brotherhood. From the
operating tables come means, some
times cries. Amputatea legs, arms
and fingers lay about. Faces we've
distorted with agony. The atmc3-
phere and heavy, sickening odor Of
blood and wounds is inseparable from
such places, but especially so on 4
hot day"
The world observer: This ana
thousands of similar tragedies have
been spared to the United States by
the patient and persistent diplomacy
of President Wilson; yet Charles L.
Hughes says the Presidents diplc-
macy has failed.
Failed in what? 1t most certainly
has not failed in keeping the United
States out of unnecessary war, ar
that service is the chief service of al
diplomacy.
European diplomacy failed in thai
vital thing. American diplomacy sue
cccded. Yet Mr.. Hughes praises Ell
ropcan diplomacy and sncers at tx
diplomacy of his own country because
the men who have carried out III
forcgn policy of the United State:
happen to be Democrats and not Re
publicans.
It would have been very easy fc
President Wilson to push the Unite
States into war He could have hat
war with Germany or war with Mex!
co or war with both. Instead, he per
sisted in employing all the resource
Iof diplomacy to maintain American
rights by peaceful methods. War w
Ibis last resort, not his first resort, an
diplomacy succeeded.
If Mr.. Wilson had been thinkin
about politics, if he had been &c
l'per cent candidate" instead Of Il
pcr cent patriot, he would have VIC
coined the opportunity for war. In;
would have meant his certain re-ele'
: ton, for the American people WI
never change Presidents in the mld'
: of war. Nobody would have wantt
the Republican nomination, MI
Hughes least of all.
President Wilson refused to buy
reelection with war. He refused
sacrifice the lives of tens OF thou
ands Of American boys to still Il
silly partisan clamor that he was II
: proud to fight" He gave to Il
United States more than policy
!, triumphant diplomacy. He gave
: it an exhibition of moral courage WI
sfwhich MIR. Hughes cannot well alto
Ito invite comparisons.
