''The sword devoureth one as we'll

writ, and the people of the entire
country sympathize with former
President Roosevelt and his family

they are now passing. 1t is prob
able that Lieut.. Quenten Roosevelt
has been killed on the western battle
front. At any rate. he is among the
missing, and there is but little upon
which to base the theory that he is 4

brothers, are suffering untold anX-

bers of some households have been

Finnish reactionary white Guard)
newspapers are again appearing, I'M
der German and White Guard pro-

in Finland, the Hclsingfors Tyomies
has been suppressed.
All the papers now allowed to APP
pear declare for a monarchy instead
of a republic in Finland. One, the
Svensk Tidning, says:
"A German prince is the only pos
sible sovereign for Finlara."
Most other papers are openly pro-
German, but make no suggestion as
to the nationality of the coming king.

which has issued an appeal blaming
the absence Of q permanent head 70

and pleading for a monarchical ar

Opposition to the MONARCHY plan is
certain from the Finnish Socialists

turn to their country. Opposition to
a German monarch is also developing

FACTS TO BE REMEMBERED

Hundreds Of men who have regis
tered for military duty and ordered
to report have failed to do so. In the
eyes Of the war department these men
are "deserters" and their names nave
been entered of record to this effect.
In addition. the officers of the coun-
ties, cities, towns, states and the Fed
cral government are charged with
the duty Of arresting these men and
lodging them with the military posts
nearest at hand. The men may have
overlooked receipt of the orders to re-
port. the orders may not have been
received, or the men may have left
the city.
That makes no difference, they are
"desertcrs" so far as the army is con-
cerncd. There is reward Of $50 for
cac of the men. If the men report of
their own accord they will not be
compelled to pay the price for their
own capture. If caught, they will
have to pay the expenses attending
arrest and transportation. They can
report now and escape severe penal
ties, but if arrested they will live
hard.

could not be won on the battlefield.
Following this arrogant display of the
power of the militarists, the present
offensive was ordered 1t has failed
ludicrously. Won Hindenburg now
finds himself in position of deep
humiliation. Won KGehlmann has been
proved right. Germany cannot win
peace on the battlefield.
Nevertheless, if Won Hindenburg
openly confesses his failure the
thumbs of the German populace may
suddenly be turned down. This bloody
gladiator must still rattle his shield,
even though the rattle comes from
fright. So the fighting is continuing,
but in desultory fashion, and with
growing dependency. General Foch
has not been compelled to call upon
his reserves to stem the German rush.
This all-important fact is known def
nitely because the Germans were
checked long before the allied re-
serves could possibly have been trans
ferred to the eastern side of the Aisne
Marine salient.
To use reserves in an advance east
ward, away from Paris and the chan
mel ports, would be the gravest blum
der Won Hindenburg now can commit.
Thanks to American reinforcements,
the allies are in position where they
can give Won Hindenburg all the time
he wants to kill off German man
power.
