MONTEREY. VA, AUGUST 81 1917

The delegation from this county
to the big road meeting at Moore
field last Saturday was composed
of one member of the board of SUI
pervisors, A ]. Terry, and the fol-
lowing: ]. A. Whitelaw, c. M.
Lunsford, Charles Swadley and
Homer Stephenson.
They returned Saturday night
and brought a glowing report from
the meeting, which, as our readers
recall, was in the interests of the
Cumberland-Hot Springs highway.
All the counties and almost every
industry touched by the proposed
road had a representation, and the
meeting was one of the most en-
thusiastic ever held in either OF the
Virginias. National and State Of
-fcials were present, and not few
farmers aIIooHHg~the line. N2ne OF
the Highland delegation being &C
customed to public speaking, B.H.
Hiner acted as spokesman for this
county and has promised to fur,
nish repors of the meeting in
detail.
Members of the home delegation
who have been consulted express
no doubt as to the purpose OF the
West Virginia counties to put up
their part of the money for the big
project, and Highland cannot af-
ford to stop short of her duty in
the matter. Perhaps no scheme
offers greater inducements or prom
Uses more for the amount expended

Last Year of War

Nothing could so we'll testify to
the increasing brevity of the great
world war than the fact that Ger
many is coming to have respect for
the word right. A policy based
upon might alone and not on right
is doomed to failure from the be-
ginning, said DR.. Richard Won
Kuehlmann in his maiden speech
before the main committee of the
Reichstag, The New German i'm
perial foreign secretary will not fol-
low the Zimmerman policy of
intrigue, but the psychological
policy of Cancellation of foes at the
point of their emenability. And
be conceives that, especially with
respect to neutrals, the policy of
right must be rigidly held to. AS

play sense of moral responsible

Now. when we PROBABLY are
beginning the last year of the war
and l say it after mature consid-
eration-we desire, as far as my
department is concerned, to begin
with the firm intention of holding
out until a satisfactory end has
been reached, trusting in our in
comparable army and its great
commanders, in our young and
brilliant fleet and in the sound
sense of the German people. l
hope for a peace which will guaran
tee Germany in future against a
recurrence of the sufferings of these
times"
The main significance lies in the
fact that the prediction points to
the time when the United States
will have its full forces modified
for action. Then will come the
end. And hen Germany will be

Germans Next War. .

Signs that Germanyis in no state
of mind to talk peace on any terms
that can be possibly considered by
the allied powers continue to APP
pear. The latest evidence is a
speech by Gen. Won Liebert at
Rathenow, Prussia, in which he
said:
eve cannot sign peace before
we have Flanders coast, colonial
empire and maritime bases. Should
we not realize this now, we must
prepare to work for it after the war
in view of the next war"
1t is to the credit of the German
sense of caution that this speech,
though loudly cheered by Gen. Won
Liebert's hearers, has been subse-
quenily criticised by the Teutonic
press. Such frankness in speaking
of the next war is altogether out OF
place in view of the proposals made
for peace on the basis of the
r. storation of the status quo
without PREPARATIONS or indemnltles.
The Berlin Vorwaerts, whose can
dor has at times been embarrassing
to the German government, de-
clares that this sort, of thing may
p:olong the war, that even our pan
Germans cannot think of a "next
time"
For years prior to the breaking
out of the war Germans toasted
each other in terms of "the day.
the day when Germany should smlte
England and strike for a world
empire. der tag" was the shlb-
boleth. Is now "the next war; tc
become the cry of the pan-Ger-
manists, the lunkers, the military
leaders and their blind followers?
There must be no "next war
for Germany. Peace terms must
be so drawn that Germany will
have no prospect of recuperatlor
as a military power and revenge
forsuhering endured in consequence

Otherwise peace will be but a truce
