The Emperor was put beneath the sod but the heavy foot of a Hohenzollern stamps above his grave, and the Austrian empire is clamped together with hoops of German steel.
 Now, this is the thing we must never forget: Austria cannot be detached and Germany left alone to reap the benefit. President Wilson knows this we'll and hence the declaration of war was timely.

believe the declaration of war against Austria asked for by President Wilson was a necessity and that the country will applaud it. The time has passed when it is possible to longer close our eyes to the fact that it is necessity in order to wage successlui campaign against Germany.
 I like Vienna and~the Viennese very much better than I ever liked the Ger mans or Berlin. During my stay at the trians very much more companionaole and likable than the Germans. l went from Paris to Vienna, but the city on the Seine when it came to fun did not have anything on the city on the Dan ube, and Berlin to the north was not in it when it came to pleasure.
 Vienna is an old and an interesting city. It occupies the site of an ancient Roman camp. Vienna is situated at the crossing of the great commercial routes from London, Berlin and Paris to Con stantinople and from St. Petersburg Petrograd) to Rome, and hence it's im- portance in commercial as we'll as in q military way. This makes it absolutely
 essential that Austria should be at tacked if her powerful northern neigh bor and dominant partner is to be con- quered
 I have had little sympathy with the
 English and American publicsts who have talked of separate peace with
 Austria. It would be suicidal. It would be but to play into Germany's hand. Since Vienna flung its ultimatum at Belgrade it means that Austria must finally be broken or there will be no permanent settlement of the Balkan question. Blood is thicker than water and to count on AustrfqQR to sit idly by while their German lzinsmen are be- ing beaten is to ask too much of hu- man nature.
 Much false sentiment was spilled over the old Emperor of Austria whose tragic history reads like chapter out of the dark ages. He outlived his day and his usefulness.

American people must steel them- selves to hear worse tidings. We have b,,t entered the war and the toll of lives is yet comparatively small. We shall be called on, as time goes by, to read casualty lists that will be longer and far more heart-rending than those we are now receiving. But it has to be. We have assumed a mighty task and we must see It through. regardless of the cost.
 Every American seaman who goes to watery grave and every Amerl- can soldier who dies in the trenches will have performed his sacred duty to his country and to humanity, even to making the supreme sacrifice There should be comfort for his rela- tives and friends in the thought that he died honored and mourned by nation. That is after all the greatest and the only worth while consolation that comes to stricken people in war time-a sense of an obligation full filled by those who join in the con- flict and those who give their loved ones without protest, that ideals which are above all selfish interests may be conserved.
 War may be great adventure, but it is an adventure in blood and tears, bringing in its train sorrows that gen. erations will remember. Yet it be- comes in a sense a holy undertaking when, as in the case of America, it is prosecuted to save the world and it's people from cruel and ruthless power.
 The nation mourns for Commander David Worth Bagley and the members of his crew who lost their lives when the Jacob Jones sank, but there is satisfaction in the knowledge that they died as brave men should, in the performance of their duty, their trim craft mortally stricken in the dark ness of night as it patrolled the win ter wastes of the north Atlantic.

IA R ONEY from many countries and lVH many sources will pour into grief ef-stricken Halifax, but the great est and most immediate relief for the multitude of people overtaken by heart -rending disaster comes from the American Red Cross society. This noble organization has always been quick to respond with surgeons, nurses, bedding and food when succor was needed, but now in this most ter rible of all catastrophes the Red Cross, with it's large preparedness for war emergencies, is making record little short of marvellous.
