There is, at this moment, neither the
time mol the inclination more than to
suggest it's problems. At least n
seems fairly obvious, and that is that,
having overturned the thrones of tyr
amy, we shall fulfill to the letter the
duty of preserving order among its
victims, and of supplying them with
the necessities Of life until such time
as they are able to maintain them
either of central Europ pc, Russia or
selves. We cannot wash our hands
the Balkans, leave them to stew in
the rancid juice Of Bolshevism-a
menace no less great to the peace and
quiet of the world than the outworn
government it supersedes. How this
is to be done without unwarranted in
reference with the rights Of the peo-
pies concerned to determine for them
selves their own forms of government
is a question which appeals for solu-
ton to the best tact and diplomacy
of the c%onquering allies.
We in America have been fond of
asking one another what is to follow
the coming of peace to u own land.
So far as the Dispatch and Pioneer
Press are concerned. they have no ans
wer to make to that question now We
are no better able to see clearly
through the inscrutable problem than
any one else. There was no prece-
dent for this amazing war and there
is no precedent upon which the event.
u~alities Of peace may be ~predicated.
There is, however, this much to be
said: That the effects of peace will
be just what we shall make them. If
it is to be attended by an orderly re-
turn to the processes and prosperity
of normal times, it will be because we
have considered our problems with
sanity and without passion. The ans
wer is in our own hands. We shall
be wise, therefore, if we apply to the
problems of the new era the supreme
counsel Of common sense, if we hold
fast to the traditions and institutions
our sons have died to preserve. The
one peril of the moment-vague it is
true, but there nevertheless-is that
amid the crash and turmoil of falling
thrones, amid the political upheavals
which are shaking Europe to it's foun-
dations, we may ourselves strain at
the moorings which have served us so
nightly for more than one hundred
and forty years. At the moment it
appears possible that the CHASTITY
tragedy of Russia may be re-enacted
in central Europe. Fortunately for
US the Russian story has been told
fully and in time. Let US profit by
it, let us throw to the struggling peo-
plies of the earth a life line bound Sc
curely to the eternal rocks of truth,
sanity and justice.-Dispatch.

mothers, wives and sisters, for whom
will end the passionate struggle be-
tween love and duty, whose nights
of sleepless anxiety have ended and
whose days are bright with the GER
tainty of the reunion to come.
Thanks be to Almighty God, the
war is over! Despite the multitude
of sorrows it has been everlastingly
worth it's hideous cost, if, as we earn
estly hope and believe, it was the
birth agony of a new era among men.
The ransom in blood and treasure is
not too high for the right Of mankind
henceforth to go ~fearlessly about its
business along the pathways of the
world, for the establishment of indi-
vidual liberty and racial self govern
ment among even the humblest and
weakest of the sons Of man.
That, we have long understood, was
what this war was being fought for
"a war against the menace Of a me-
diaeval conception Of power, defiant
of any principle save that might is
right, and intolerant Of any question
ing of it's own brutal and selfish am
bition. We have seen such powers be-
fore. Napoleon endeavored to make
the world his footstool, and to William
the. Second as to Napoleon the Great,
civilization has returned the same ans
wer-an answer which today is found
in the ruin of a once mighty state, and
amid the wreckage of the trapplngs
of Imperialism.
We hope that President Wilson will
at once suggest a suitable observance
| of this epochal event-we know of no
reason why sur own Thanksgiving
Day, which now approaches, should
not be designated as the time for
America to fall upon its knees and
return devout thanks to God for the
victory which has crowned our just
cause and the cause of our valiant
allies. 1t is understandable and prop
per that public exuberance should
manifest itself in less decorous ex-
pressions, but the occasion is not one
for riot. 1t is a solemn and historic
moment in the history OF mankind,
and the American people will desire
to make suitable acknowledgment.
There is room for jubilation that the
occasion for sorrow, suffering and
sacrifice is gone, yet there is a debt
we shall always owe to the memory
of those gallant young men who lie
beneath the peoples of France. and
the moment demands that we shall
forget neither the tribute to those who
have died, nor the victor's wreath
to those who remain.
In the sense that the signing OF
armistice brings the cessation of hos
t%ilities, we have already made peace
and yet the peace itself, that just and
equitable settlement of the multitude
of problems in the wake of the war
is still measurably distant, and still
demands of allied leadership the wis

ed upon the chancelleries of the world

VICTORY AND PEACE.

August 4, 1914-November II, 1918.
The war is over and a great pean
of profound thankfulness goes up from
a jubilant, if bleeding, world to the
Throne of Observation-Disclosures that
the war is ended and thankfulness
that it is ended right.
Peace in it's literal sense has not
come, but it's benignant beams gild
the eastern horizon and the rejoicing
world 'basks in the certainty of the
coming glory. The foundation has
been laid deeply and securely and upon
it will be builded an edifice Of peace
which, please God, will endure into the
centuries.
The tumultuous demonstration
which is shaking the earth today is
of joy which cannot entirely obscure
the deeper sentiment of solemnity
which tends to tears of thanksgiving.
That profound stiffness which has sue
ceeded the thunders of war along the
battle front brings balm to millions
of homes represented in field and
trench by their best young manhood,
now rescued from the altar of sacri-
flee, snatched from the horrible per-
lis of battle and saved beyond all pre-
adventure for the glorious home-com-
ing and the award of laurel.
That is the first emotion. That is
the first expression of the human
heart which speaks before the mind
can arrange its thoughts. Our boys
are safe. We gave them heroically
and they went CALAMITY, devotedly
sublimely, making the supreme offer
ing and ready for the supreme sacri-
flee but now that it has pleased heav-
en- to permit the cup to pass, the great
heart of America speaks first for the

L. E. Jones received the following
letter this morning from state head
quarters of the department of labor
at Great Falls.
The following telegram has just
been received from the director gen.
eral of the U. S. employment SER
vice:
"Control and responsibility for re-
cruiting unskilled laborers for wal

Just at the present time the most
important direction contained in this
telegram is that one directing US to
tease our efforts to secure men from
non-essential industries. You should
give this order wide publicity in or
der that men now engaged in what
has been classified as non-essential
industries may revise their plans and
prepare to fit themselves into the af-
ter-war program.

In a statement outlining the neces-
sity for this step in sei1-oe1ense
against the enemy, Charles W
Davidson. chairman of the board of
trustees of the society, says:
I'm the last analysis the real GROUND
for this campaign is self-de1ense
Whenever a German article Is oougnt
by an American a certain percentage
of it's cost goes as a tax into the Prus-
sian war chest, there to be used for
manufacturing cannon and shells to
be used to kill Americans, and the
whole cost of the article is taken out
of American workmen's pockets. The
most effective method Of weakening
the power of the Germans Is not to
do business with them"
In Great Britain the campaign IS
being conducted by the British Empire
union; in France by the Souvenez-
Vous society; in North America and
South America by the American De-
Tense society.
In this "Never Buy Anything Ger
man" campaign, the work OF secur-
ing signatures will be undertaken by
the two hundred and seventy-six
branch organizations of the American
Defense society, as well as by var
ious other national patriotic n civic
associations. All individual citizens,
as also trade, commercial and patriotic
organizations interested in aiding in
this work are requested to send their
names and addresses to the national
headquarters of the American Defense
society, A East 23rd street, New York
City.

DON'T LET YOUR COAL
RI1RN IN THE PILE

DUNN Va ~ ~
Because of the request of the fuel
administration coal has been stored
this year in greater amounts than US
ual by all customers. This has re-
suited in coal piles Of greater depth.
Soft coal, when exposed to the air,
absorbs oxygen slowly. AS a conse-
quence the temperature of the coal
rises. With the increase of temper
ature the rate of oxidation increases,
this causing in turn a faster rise in
temperature, until the coal starts to
burn. This is called Spontaneous
combustion" External heat may has
ten it. Coal stored against a furnace
wall or over a steam pipe may take
fire.
The finer the grade of coal used,
the greater the danger of spontaneous
combustion, because of the larger sur
face exposed to the air.
Experiments have shown, too, that
the depth of the coal pile has much to
do with the danger. A 10-foot pile
is probably safe for most grades of
bituminous coal.
Wet coal is also more liable to spon-
taneous combustion than dry, unless
totally submerged in water.
In Ease of spontaneous combustion
the best thing to do is to dig out the
fire, and burn the %smoldering coal, OF
carry it to a safe place. Don't flood
with water, as the coal over the fire
may coke, forming a shield that pro-
tects it against water.

HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS.

There is a notion very prevalent
in the United States that when the
American soldiers return home they
are going to feel very kindly towards
the subscribers to the Liberty loans.
Liberty bonds are incontrovertible ev-
idence that the purchaser has support
ed his government, has supported our
soldiers abroad in this war. Keep that
evidence in your possession until the
boys come home.
