as no War.

We do not believe in war. We think
that all international disputes shoa1ld
be settled by arbitration, and that any
nation refusing to arbitrate or to
abide by the verdict of a%rbitrators
should be compelled to do so by the
united efforts OF peace-loving nations.
We sincerely hope that the civilized,
nations of earth will SO league
themselves as to achieve this, and that
wars shall cease t~henceforth and for
ever. But unfortunately all men and
all nations do not hold these views. or
did not in 1914. War came in spite of
the most urgent appeals, for peace.
Nations which wanted peace ana earn
estly strove for it were compelled to
go to war or to surrender the lights
and principles for winch they had
contended through raany centuries
Just now county faces a like alter
native. 1t may abandon the prinei-
pies for which its founders ~contended,
may surrender the rights won at un-
told cost; Oh it may uphold these prin-
ciples and maintain these rights by
force. This situation wat not created
by our country but by by the other ma
ton. Our country wants no war mol
any OCCASION for war. Let the other
country so think and act and there
will be no war. But as things now
are war appears to be the only alter
native. We stand with u President
in this issue and believe that all good
Americans should support him in hi;
determination to surrender no Amer
lean or human right.-EXchange.

Chancellor MIchaeIis Expected to De.
clare That Pontif's Note Is in
General Accord With kaiser's
Proposal Of 1915.

Copenhagen, Aug. 23.-At a meet
ing of the main committee OF the
reichstag Chancellor Michaelis was ex-
pected to declare the pope's peace note
in general accord with the German gov
ernment's peace proposal of Decem-
Der II. 1916, and the recent reichstag
resolution on the same subject, and
therefore, TO be sympathetically re-
ceived in Germany.
Germany, however, cannot discuss
details and in no circumstances can it
enter into discussion of the status of
Alsace-Lorraine as part of the Ger
man empire. The chancellor, accord
ing to this forecast, will say that as
Germany has earlier indicated its de-
sire to make peace the first word must
come from the other side.
A meeting of the bundesrath's COM
mittee on foreign affairs had been
called for Monday in Berlin under the
craftsmanship of the Bavarian premier,
Count Hertling. to discuss the situa-
ton created by the pope's note and to
approve the lines Of Chancellor Mich
aelis' speech to the reichstag commit
tee.
Rome. Aug. 23.-The reply of the
British government TO the peace note
of Pope Benedict was handed to Car
dinal Gasparri, the papal secretary of

reply says the pope'S note win be ex-
amined in a benevolent and serious
