STANDING TOGETHER

Lord Robert Cecil, the British un :.
der secretary of state, says there are
twenty -four nations comprising the
entente allies, which will stand to-
gether, when the war closes, and not
allow Germany to participate In or
control the commercial and indus
trial situation of the future. The
British Minister quotes President
Wilson when he said if the German
people should still, after the war Is
over, continue to be Obliged to live
under ambitious and intriguing mas
ters interested to disturb the peace
OF the world" it might be impos-
sible to admit them to the partner
ship of nations or to free economic
intercourse. That is no doubt the
doctrine of the entente nations and
Germany might consider herself out
of the combine if she retains her
Hohenzollernism. But that 'if" is
not needed, for this war cannot end
with Hohenzollernism intact. That
has to go. There is no peace with 1t,
but if its selfishness in any form re-
mains, the entente nations will have
nothing to do with it, and Germany
will have to live to herself and not
expect other nations to contribute
to her "kultur." Civilization is go
ing to assert herself henceforth.-

Victory has been granted
Now let us give ourselves over to
a day of Thanksgiving.
Let us keep ourselves right with
God. Our cause is just. We fight
for no principle not in full accord
with Christian teaching. Which is
all the more reason why we should
publicly acknowledge our harmony
with divine purpose and our depend
ence upon divine aid and guidance

ments against the children of Ann
mon, Noah and Mount Seir. which
were come against Judah; and they

War Dignifies Bachelor
[From the Ontario Post l

L
THE somewhat pathetic figure of
the bachelor is wonderfully dignified
by the advent of war;" stated the
rookie, placidly rocking back and
forth on the porch of the hotel
I'm a bachelor" confessed the
rookie in well satisfied tones, "and at
present rejoice in the fact. War has
given the unmarried man some of
the prestige which he lacked in times
Of peace. Ordinarily the bachelor is
tolerated for what he may become
rather than for what he is. Mothers
would not welcome him into society
nor girls take pleasure in his com
pany IL 1t were thought that he would
always remain a bachelor. The hope
of converting him into a married
man furnishes one of the main in
centives of all social activities.
Il intend to wed after the war, of
course" continued the rookie, "for
as the hopes of fond mothers are dis
appointed, the bachelor becomes
more and more a misfit in a world
which prides itself on finding an
exactly shaped corner for everyone
of its inhabitants who is worth troub-
ling about.
For certain adventures the
bachelor can be depended upon for
udSh anu enLnuSldsInj the rookie
affirmed, "but for the steady, monot-
onous grind of everyday life he is
inferior to the benedict. Summed
up" the rookie concluded the argu-
ment with a flourish, Civic progress
relies principally upon the man
whose interests carry over into the
next generation and are not confined
to his corporeal welfare. But in war
the demand is not for men who have
found their places in the world but
for those who have not"

.GoU. Whitndn'S Steam Roller
(New York World)


Governor Whitman has adjourned.
Nominally it was the unofficial Re-
publican convention at Saratoga that
adjourned. but as the Governor was
the convention, it deserves personifi-
cation.
There was much opposition to the
Governor among the Old Guard, but
It seems to have been confined to
the hotel corridors. Mr.. Whitman
did not permit any of 1t to get an
official foothold. The convention did
as he wanted 1t to. do. 1t adopted
the platform that he had prepared
for 1T. 1t lodged the prohibition is
sue, as he had planned. 1t cheered
the Colonel and Elihu Root and Will
liam II. Taft impartially, as he de-
sired. 1t whooped 1t up for winning
the war, which is always good poll
tics, and nothing marred the seren-
ity of the Governors deliberations
except an untoward militant suffra-
gist demonstration against that emil
nent ex-soldier the Hon. James w.
Wadsworth
Surely the Governor has reason to
be satisfied in spite of the round
robins of the Old Guard and the cor
dial invitations to the Colonel to
start something. The Governor may
be highly unpopular with certain
elements of the Republican party,
but he has proved that he is a boss
who knows how to boss, and that
counts for a great deal in Republi-
can politics in New York. Charles
Francis Murphy himself does not
drive a niftier steam roller than the
one that Charles Seymour Whitman
operates.

NO TINE FOR OPTIMISM
In Y Time es1

IN. Y. TimeS1
NO sooner does General Foch be-
gin a smashing attack in the Sois-
sons sector and take prisoners and
guns with the cooperation of hard
hitting American divisions than his
movement is welcomed by our i'm
pressionable optimists as the be-
ginning of the end for Germany. The
note of elation rises to a crescendo
OIL triumphant faith in victory. 1t Is
said that the French strategist has
regained the initiative; that he Will
not lose 1t again; that Paris, Amiens
and the Channel ports are safe now
and that with a million American
troops in the line the Germans VIII
soon be driven from French terri
tory. 1t is unfortunate that gleam
of success turns the heads of many
OF our people so, and that they see
in II the growing dawn of victory
and the sunburst of peace. The
enemy is less imaginative; whatever
his successes are, whatever advan-
tage he obtains, he continues to plan
military triumph in the west
in the east he considers that he has
won the war.
No optimism could be more fool
ish than. the auto -intoXication of the
Americans and their allies when a
German thrust is parried, drive"
checked or stopped, in Flanders, Pi-
cardy, or the Champagne. There is
reason for elation when General
Foch turns on the foe and throws
him back with heavy casualties and
accommodating losses. as he has done
in this, his first real offensive since
he assumed command. of the allied
forces on the western front; never
| theless, his success should not be
hailed as an assurance that the
worst is over, and that henceforth
the Germans will have to fight a
defensive campaign that must end in
defeat and disaster. The road to vic
tory will be long and toilsome, how
ever brilliant the strategy of Cen
eral Foch, however valiantly the
allied troops acquit themselves In
the field. AS that master of war
has said, this is stuggle between
| peoples as well as between armies.
| 1t might be just as fatal for the peo-
pie of the allied nations to be VIC
! tins of overconfidence as for their
armies to suffer from it. There is
little danger of the latter; the allied
soldiers know their foe, they do not
make the mistake of undertaking his
genius for war, his fighting ability.
But there is a real danger that the
allied peoples. and particularly the
Americans, will be deceived by over
confidence to the point of relaxing
their energies when the situation
calls for a supreme effort, if vic
tory is to be won and democratic
peace secured.

MIR. TAFT'S SPEECH

TN his Saratoga speech, ex-Presi-
dent Taft clearly demonstrated
the weakness of the Wilson ad-
ministration with respect to certain
policies. He indicated quite clearly
that politics was adjourned" only
where Democrats are in minority,
and insisted on the value OF con-
structive criticism as a help to the
President in the great crisis.
In the opinion of the former
President, n Republican Congress
would be q distinct help to the ad-
ministration in formulating plans
for the prosecution of the war.
So, long as Congress is merely a
complacent "me-too" of the man in
the White House it is not likely that
any distinct suggestion in that quar-
ter may be expected. In the opinion
of Mr.. Taft. the tendency of the adj
ministration is to allow party con-
siderations too much sway in its ap-
pointment to important tasks" He
also criticised presidential interfer-
ence in the party affairs in Wiscon-
sin and Michigan and pointed out
the failure to call to the aid OF the
government the services OF those
geniuses of business organizations
whose achievements have in the
past advanced the material resources
in this country to their present COM
manding power"
The former President highly COM
mended the appointment of such
men as Schwab, and Ryan, and Goe-
thals and others during recent
months, as types of big men who
should be working for the govern
ment. He also favored an enlarge
ment of war military preparations.
The people generally are coming
to realize that a Republican Con-
gress would greatly aid in the fur
ther work of the war and prevent
the building up of political ma
chine without regard to the more inn
portant duties necessary to the win
ming of the war.

water have just arrived. 1t will take
all the energy l can pump up in the
next hour just to warm me up to

fast did not satisfy her and she had
bought some peanuts and started
again.
II m.-Peanuts have been drift
ing along steadily ever since. Think
she has finished them. though.
1890 p. m.-Decided she wasn't
very hungry, and instead of a good
solid dinner sent me down a cold
eggnog heavy with chocolate. Could
have managed it all right IL 1t hadn't
been so unnaturally cold, but that
made it terribly difficult to deal with

One American Advantage

One of the great assets on the side
of the United States in this war is
the complete and unbounded conf
dence of all the people-soldiers and
civilians-that we are going to win.
No one for a moment has any doubt
about that. Some of us feel that
we may have to pay a heavy price,
but most of us feel also that 1t is go
ing to be worth all that it costs.
1t is to be noted that this sense of
confidence that fills the hearts of the
people is not the overconfidence by
which great battles are sometimes
lost, but rather the consciousness of
being in the right and of having the
mental and physical force to uphold
that right for our own sakes and for
the sake of the world. This calm
confidence is unquestionably a great
American advantage.
The magnificent showing that has
been made and is being made by the
American soldier boys in the latest
German offensive thrills the hearts
of all loyal citizens. It is inspiring
and 1t warns the heart-but it was
not unexpected.-Philadelphia In

SAD DAYS AHEAD

~ UR rejoicing is shortly to be
tinctured with sorrow. Penn
- sylvania troops have been in
the thick of the fighting in France.
They have had their share of the
glory and they have shared also in
the casualties.
Regiments cannot charge in the
face of artillery and machine gun
fire without suffering severely. Short
ly we shall begin to hear of our
losses. Beyond doubt they will be
heavy. We must steel ourselves for
the shock that is coming.
Nobody knows where the blow will
fall; what household or how many
death has entered. The slow COM
pilation and publication of the casu-
atty lists alone will tell the tale.
But we have this consolation. that
no matter what their losses, our SOL
diers acquitted themselves like men
and their deaths were avenged be-
fore their bodies were cold. The
next few days will be anxious ones
