A WAR PRAYER

BY James Waterman Wise Of
the vioIIantes.
Father, we beseech thee
Guard our boys tonight.
Keep, we pray, their footsteps
On the paths Of right.
We have sent them gladly,
For the fight is just,
Yea, their cause is holy,
Glorious their trust.
Hold their fates, O Father,
In thy wondrous hand,
Bring them back, If may be,
Back to grace our land.
For we loved them dearly
But our path was clear;
Honor babe us send them,
Father, be thou near!
But if they must leave US,
If it be thy will,
Father, we implore thee,
Guide and guard them still.

William the Conquered
Bv William Gilmore Revmer
BY William Gilmore Beymer

Shall name him William the Damned?
No, not that;
He'd glory in that
To lis mad brain twould merely
That the world, trembling, held him, Great Him, in
William the Damned-he'd like it,
Damn hint would make him smile
Williams the Fool7-an apt name.
Think what he WA, and had and might have been:
The worlds respect riches, power, a just fame
All growing year by year;
A great and happy people who believed, no less
Than that he akin to God;
and shining goal awaiting his reisns end
With swne's greed he trampled all that
Into a boody mre,
And tried to sulp the world-the fool!
William the Fool, then?-shall we name him that?
No, no--'tis apt, but not enough.
'Twould leave him room for argument

mind when the time came for an answer to the
note Of the Imperial Chancellor asking for an
armistice. There has been waste OF
much breath in the famboyant criticisms Of
Theodore Roosevelt and the half-veilcd opinions
Of eX-President Taft. Both Of these former
Presidents were inclined to the opinion thai
President Wilson had put his foot in it, and had
been caught by Hun diplomacy. Now, perhaps,
the light will begin to break upon such as these.
II President Wilson in his reply, which is pub
lishcd this morning, does not demand 'uncond-
tonal surrender we have lost the meaning OF
the words. And if Germany entertained the
slightest idea that tho President of the United
States would instantly proceed to arrange the
terms Of an armistce upon Germany's agreement
to cvacuate invaded territory, such illusions have
been rudely dspeled by the cutting, incisive
sentences Of document which must become
historic"
"The Philadelphia Enquirer says the same
thing in bricfer form "It is true that in his
reply to Germany the President does not use
the words unconditional surrender,' but
that is the plain intent of his message
There will be no cessation Of hostlities until
Germany throws up her hands of her own
accord or Is forced to do so at the point Of
the bayonet. For yield she must, and ou-
terms are unconditional surrender. Nothing
less" "The Public Ledger Of Philadelphia,
thus interprets the Presidential reply:
"Here is the demand for unconditional sur
render which will hearten all the Allied peoples
and arouse them to a fresh determination to
crush forever the intolerable thing that
plunged the world into disaster almost beyond
imagination. The men who brought on the war
cannot sign the terms Of peace. They must be
cast down from the high places they have dis
graced. And it is for the German people to
cast them down.
"The Indianapolis News" says:
1.-THE note means that there shall be no peace
without victory, and peace with Hohenzol-
lcrnsm, the military masters Of Germany
The President speaks for the whole country, and
government understanding least it is -
be hoped that it does-what America means.
There will BE- conference to arrange an armis-
tice. If arnstco is desired the German gov
ernnsnt must apply to Marshal Foch who will
make the terms, and they viii be the terms Of
victor. Also he will be free to refuse to grant
armistice any terms. The war will 20 on,
men will continue to move across the ocean at
the rate of 100000 month, and the Liberty Loan
will be subscribed. The Presidents reply will
cheer armies and those Of our friends, and
the people to full sense of their respon-
sibility. 1t is in every way admirable"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-10-20

direct, vigorous and
sweeping refusal OF the
German peace overture
is the answer which
most people expected to
the original German
note, and which they
now heartily approve.
1t is not weakened OF
affected in any way by
the interlocutory ques-
tons of President Will
son and the answers
thereto, contained in the
notes of October s and
October 12."
1.-THE Asheville IN.
CO. Citizen" writes in
this fashion:
"The ringing reply
made by President Will
son to the German peace

lowing his preliminary
note OF inquiry on last

doubt, the only ono that

II came full throated from a hundred
- million Americans. "No peace with
nut surrender unconditional surrender" 1t
was response that came directly out of eigE
teen months of clear thinking. eighteen
months of straining effort, eighteen months
ss developed strength to the point where
mastery is the only conceivable way out Of
the struggle into the quiet waters of peace
for the American people. 1t was response
out of four years of mounting horror and
revu|sion for the powers that had flung them
selves on the world. The answer in usage
vas from Washington; the answer in fact
vas from all the minds and hearts in every
community between the two oceans.
Thirty days ago unconditional surrender
vas phrase from another epoch, relic,
words for historic contemplation. In that
time it sprang to the lips of nation, alive
again with present meaning. 1t was d
significant thing, means toward national
Observation-Disclosures that out of the seeming
automatic trend toward negotiation there
would be no theft of the victory so hardly
won. so cruelty striven for and bloodily
gained The enemy must give up utterly; j
there are terms they will be the terms i'm
posed by ourselves, not the terms Of Germany
Newspaper comment, both before the an
swer from Washington and Immediately fol-
lowing, disclosed widespread uncertainty as
10 the meaning of the Presidents attitude.
BY some observers the Presidents diplomacy
has been called into doubt; by others it is
confirmed as coincident with the feeling OF
he country at large and successful as such
n expressing it.
The discussion has probably been ripest in
New York "The New York Globe finds
that "the President conspicuously avoids the
use of the words unconditional surrender
but his declaration is equivalent to an affrma-
lion of them. The armistice, if one is de-
clared, will be on terms laid down by the
Allies, and this is equivalent to saying that
the peace, when written, will be no COM
promise one AT last there is common dip
tomato 'front.'
'The New York Herald also agrees with
this, although with some reservation:
IF October President Wilson had sent to
the German government the note he sent to that
government yesterday the people of the United
States and of the countries fighting with our
own the battles of liberty and civilization would
have been spared many doubts and heartburn
ings, the Presidents prestige as leader of Amer
lean thought would have suffered no dimnution,
The Presidents position spokesman for the
forces of civilization would have been incontest-
able and uncontested
THE reply sent yesterday is the best possible
proof that the interlude consisting of the Presi-
dents questioning of the German Imperial Chan
celor and that functonary's reply
necessary it was futile"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-10-20

out of occupied territory.
The terms Of evacuation
may be left to Marshal
Foch. That is purely q
military problem. Di-
plomacy must wait upon
that solution. President
Wilson has already said
that ne would not feel at
liberty to suggest an
armistice to the govern
ments associated with us
80 long as the armies OF
the Central Powers are or
their soil. The good faith
Of any discussion must be
measured by Germany's
actual acceptance of that
6tipulation.'
Among .Southeru
newspapers, "The Mont
gomery Advertiser" be-
trays some impotence
with the diplomatic in
terchange, declaring:
1.-THE only terms al
lowed Bulgaria were
unconditional surrender.
Germany is entitled To
less rather than TO NOR
consideration.

"The Pittsburgh Dispatch" writing before
the last word had been sent from Washing
ton, commented thus:
"Who is to guarantee that the Kaiser or some
General Hoffman will not this time also push the
Reichstag 1uthlessly aside and repudate the
whole business!
"There is but one guarantee against this-the

cepting it the proper answer, but as
negation of the Presidents former diplomacy.
1t declares:
"When President Wilson had delivered him

only two courses Of action. He compelled
