WAR TO THE
BITTER END.

Gcrmany's Chancellor has declared
for war to the bitter end unless the
Allies accept the Interpretation OF
the war map that Germany may
choose to make and negotiate for a,
close of the war upon the basis. Thus
the peace feclcrs of a few weeks age
are withdrawn and Berlin no longer
hints at an early close of the strife.
The Allies have never believed the
foe had any real intentions to arrive
at compromise. and knew that if a
peace council were called it would
witness Germany claiming every
thing in sight.
DR.. Won Bethmann-H ollweg is not
alone in offering defiance. The re-
sumption of the hatred of England
againt Germany has been marked
by the expressions of relentless pur-
pose upon the part of England. Lloyd
George, than whom there is no more
responsible spokesman for his coun-
try, in a statement to the editor OF
the London Daily Chronicle, says:
81 have never detpaired of victory.
The task will be hard, but Sne end
is sure. 1t is Germany's military
force that we must beat. 1t is not
enough to force her to submission by
economic pressure. A peace impos-
ed on Germany, exhausted in food
and materials only, would not be
durable. 1t would be moral defeat
| for the Allies. The Germans could
/ say they had beaten us in battle ano
! made peace Only because we had
starved their women and children
| That peace we don't want. Only q
crushing military victory will bring
| the peace for which the Allies art
fighting, and of which Germany, viii
understand the meaning. That victor!
we shall have; it will be complete
and final"
So the foeman lock their hcrns
with Russia .nots talking, shut, doing
! deeds of tremendous. significance
upon the east side, and France still
!, exenphfying the Utmost nobility il
defense Of its territory that was in
,Vaded under the verlest prstext.

HUGHES AND
FAIRBANKS.

The Republican National Conven-
ton in Chicago Saturday nominated
Charles E. Hughes, for President
and Charles w. Fairbanks for Vice
President of the United States. Both
these gentlemen undoubtedly ENJOY
the confidence of the people OF the
country, but what good would re-
suit should majority Of the voters
cast their ballots for them cannot be
divided at present. 1t has during the
past year been admitted by de:ho-
Gratis and republicans alike that
Woodrow Wilson was the right man
in the right place while the nation
was confronted by some of ths most
momentous issues that have been
sprung UPON it since its birth. Why
the pcoDle should refuse to let well
enough alone at d time when Nc en-
pcr:ments should be tried is hari 20
tell.
Theodore Roosevelt and his FRO
eressive dreams have entered INTO
an eclipse. That individual, VINO nes
tcen to the Republicans what Viii
liam Jennings Bryan: still is &c tie
democrats, announces that ne is our

relief to the many VINO have long
age sickencd of his pretensions. The

years ago, however, may insist unot!
piacing third candidate in the field,
i'm which event whatever chances the
original organization have will be dc
siroyed as they we're in 1912.
The Democrats will undoubtedly
nominate Woodrow Wilson and Vice
President Marshall, as they did four
years ago, and while some members
of the party may be anxious from the
fact that the Progressives are liable
to fall into the ranks with the party
they formerly wrecked, the great
mass of the people of the country
are ready to vote their affirmation of
the present administration which has
guided the ship Of state through the
most treacherous breakers it has

activities Of the Russians since the
spring drive began, have been produc-
tive of continual successes, resulting
lin the capture of upward OF nearly
one hundred thousand prisoners anG

ling attention to these facts says ii
seems hardly possible that only a;

fronties. But at the time the public
was informed that, although beaten.
the Russian army was not crushed;
that the loss of Poland could be borne
with equanimity so long as the mas
terly retreat of Grand Duke Nicholas
had preserved to their country the
soldiers of the Car. Evidently, the
econiutns bestowed the grand duke
for his strategy were well merlted.
The heavy guns whose absence he sc
deplored are not lacking in the opera

the Russian successes are said to be
largely due to the skillful and un
precedented use of artillery, surpas
sing in intensity any previous efforts
on either side on the east front. With
the recapture of Lutsk, the apex
of a triangle of fortresses in Vol.
hynia, new invasion of Galicia from
the north is threatened. Dubno is
the next objective and should that
fortress fall, together with Rovno.

ordinary reversal of conditions, fol
lowing so soon after the great Ger
man campaign on the east front, is
without precedent in history, and Rus.
STA alone, with her unlimited numbers
of soldiers, could have done what is
now being witnessed. What will i'll
avail Germany if Verdun falls only
to find the Austro-Hungary army
in retreat and in danger of annihila-
ton? viii she again go to the res.

more tenacious, more insistent. more
terrible in its strength Of numbers
than ever before. Truly, Germany has
prodigious problems before her that
might well cause the stoutest nation
to quail.

Wilson'S Own Hand.

The Mexican problem is being han
died by the president personally, it is
understood, and no step will be taken
without his sanction. 1t has been
hinted that Mr.. Wilson suggested the
Ell Paso conference.
Officials apparently saw no reason
to doubt he accuracy of press reports
from Ell Paso giving the substance OF
the tentative agreement and it seemed
probable that the tentative agreement
would be promptly ratified unless
state department officials find some
element in it which requires further
discussion.
An indication of the thorough &C
cord of the administration with the
plan hit upon by Gen. Scott and Gen.
qObregon Of solving the border prob
lem came with information that the
state and treasury departments were
preparing to take early action on ap-
plicaqtions for expectation of various
shipments of arms and ammunition
to the Caranza forces. So much doubt
has surrounded the attitude of the
various Caranza generals in the
northern States of Mexico that no war
supplies have been given clearance
since the American troops started in
pursuit of Villa. A total of 10,000,00O
rounds of ammunition is said to be
awaiting forwarding permits.
Carranza Needs Arms.
took up these questions with the state
department today in an informal and
entirely friendly manner. The cam
paign inaugurated against the Zapata
forces in southern Mexico makes it
necessary that full supplies he assured
for the Carranza forces operating
there.
State and treasury department Off
cials conferred later and it is under
stood that Carranza's representatives
were promised that if the results of
the Scott Obregon conference were as
satisfactory as pictured in press re-
ports and the agreement was ratified
by both governments ammunition
shipments would be expedited as the
Washington government was anxious
to da all in its power to aid in reStor-
Ing peace in all parts Of Mexico.
State department officials are un-
derstood to have pointed out that the
only reason for the delay in the ship
ments was the difficulty of making
certain that the war material would
90 to loyal Carranza forces.
