A TRANSPARENT TRICK.

A Marylander, formerly captain
in the United States army, makes
some practical suggestions concern
ing Germany's endeavor to bring on
an armistice. He says:
Germany asks for truce, or arm
istice. Upon what grounds? And for
whose benefit? The grounds are to
give her standing as an unbeaten
rower. The benefit being for~her and
her alone. Ir our Civil War, in 1862,
the commandment of Fort Donaldson,
saked of Gen. U. S. Grant to give him
terms. Grant replied: ''There are no
terms but unconditional surrender. ]
propose to move upon your works i'm
r,ediately."
This can and should be the answer
to Germany. What has brought Ger
many to this humble state of mind?
Is it contrition? No, it is because she
feels the entering wedge; she sees the
handwriting on the wall. Attilla has
come to his second Chalcns.
Should sentiment OF pity cause
stay of the Allied offensive? Think of
Belgium. Think of the millions OF pre-
vious lives offered up. The. billions of
treasure spent, and the anguish and
suffering of q world of heartbroken
people who mourned while Germany
Laughed and threatened more.
The talk that Germany is playing
a trick to gain time, is not reasonable.
She would be capable Of doing so, but
Tor what end. The inevitable has
come. Germany is beaten and Ger
man officials admit it. They are play
ing for the position of equality in the
peacea conference, and to hide the fact
of their true position, not only from
their enemies, but from the people
the plain people the fatherland. That
Germany is beaten, one has only to
turn to the printed work and speech
of Governor General Won Kissing, in
which he says: eff we do not win Bel
GUM for Germany into our power
sphere, if we do not manage it and
use it in German fashion, then we have
lost the war. The conquest of Belgium
has been forced upon US, and we must
keep what the sword has won. The i'm
portance. of Belgium for Germany has
been proved for 500 years. As long
as Germany was powerful she held
Belgium under influence. To give up
tie possession of the Belgian coast,
cur feet will lack important bases for
