THE DEATH KNELL OF KINGSHIP.


Germany apparently is surprised that Amer
ca at last did declare war Surface indications
utterances more or less irresponsible by American
public men; observations more or less inaccurate
nv friends of Germany-all these combined to as
sure the German war lords that they could resume
their ruthless submarine warfare and that Amer
ca would do no more than turn the other cheek.
They seem surprised, too, that America. in the
,our of decision, instead Of being torn asunder by
internal commissions, is acting as one man.
They did not take into account the ideals which
,ermeate America; the principles which form the
rery cornerstone of the republic; that govern
nent of the people, by the people, for the people
| which lured so many millions of folk across the
atlantic from king-ridden Europe.
The freedom of the seas, the safety of Amer
cans abroad, has ceased in a moment to be the
'ssue. The issue has become, by Germany's own
act. the characterization of all mankind. Amer
cas- recognition of a state of war sounds forever
the death knell of "the divine right of kings"
That is the outcome which is now at last shap-
inc from this great weltcr of war. Russia has
lethroned her Car. Revolution menaces the
hrone of Spain. France and Portugal are re-
mblics. England, true is a monarchy, but limit
,d-ecidedly so. The civilized world is uniting
gainst the last %strongholds of absolutism. They
must inevitably fall.
That is what this war really means. That is
he destination toward which it is steadily work
ing. That, we hope, is the end of all this struggle
"a wider democracy. The fight is for the free
dom of the German people just as much as for
ourselves; for their release from the absolutism
which has turned their civilization back to bar
,arism. Our victory, we believe and hope, will be
,e a victory, not merely for ourselves and for
,ur allies, but even for those who fight against us.

CHURCH PAPERS AND WAR.


II has surprised thousands Of the church mem
hers Of the United States in the last year or so
to find that many Of their church papers have
done anything but follow in the thought OF the
sPrince of Peace" Some Of them have been as
radically pro-war-long before the United States
was subjected to the submarine affronts by Ger
many-as Mr.. Roosevelt himself is in his most
radical moments.
It is peculiarly the function Of the church pa
per to put the soft pedal on rag-time thinking;
the thoughts on public questions it enunciates
should be clear-cut, fair and in conformity with
the teachings of Christ. 1t should avoid hysterla
and emotionalist excitement.
The denominational papers that have failed IN
this respect, can with profit take a leaf from The
Christian Herald, perhaps the leading religious
publication in the country which in its discussion
Of the war and it's problems has done so well as
to merit the concentrations of the best thinkers
The Christian solution of mundane problems has
been uppermost, and the result has been broat
sympathy, understanding and calm consideration
that forces conviction.
This is the proper function Of a church paper
It should stand up for Christian principles in pub
lie and national life. And by hewing close to this
line it's influence will be great.
The daily commonwealth. (Greenwood, Leflore Co., Miss.) 1916-1919, 1917-04-24

1t wasn't so very long ago when the idea OF
sending an American army overseas was consider
ID IAN insane proposal"
Agitation for such a step, however, has become
overwhelming, and there is every likelihood that,
f the war lasts long enough to permit us to raise
IN army, our khaki-clad lads will see real service.
The "insane proposal" Is now generally taken
or granted. The only question is-wil the war
asst long enough to permit it?
England thinks our entrance into the war will
shorten it. German dispatches declare that the
belief in Germany is that our entrance will length
en- it. Only time will tell which view is correct.
If the German army on the western front
:rumbles this spring and summer, peace undoubt-
Idly will be near.
If, on the other hand, the German army ia not
lestroyed-merely pushed back-it may be an
experience similar to that Of Russia. The Ger
mans, it will be remembered, subjected the Rus
slams to a tremendous push, but as the Grand
Duke held the Russian armies intact, the Slavs
we're unwilling to take the count and are still in
battle array.
If the same thing happens to the Germans
if they be driven out Of France and Belgium and
not destroyed-then the possibilities are strong
that national pride will prevent them from CIV
ing up and our men will still be needed to put the
finishing touches on the situation.
