THE ONLY ANSWER POSSIBLE

President Wilson could have made no other reply to the German
government regarding the request for an armistice for the discussion
Of peace terms and have satisfied the American people. America was
a long time getting into the war, but once In, there Is a universal
determination to see it through. And it is apparent to all that it is
not through yet by a great deal.
The only terms that America is willing to discuss is unconditional
surrender; and then there is to be no discussion. 1t is a case of the
German government simply laying down and accepting whatever
terms the allies choose to impose.
so President Wilson's reply can be summed up in the one sentence:
Hln.No peace with kaiserism." AS long a S the Hohenzollern family is
sitting tight at Potsdam there is nothing to do but fight on Any
government that Germany may have with William II on the throne
is moi to be trusted. He is still looked upon as the august master by
every official in Berlin and while they may be willing to promise any
thing for the sake of stopping Fochs hammer blows long enough to
permit their shattered armies to get their breath, they would be ready
to break faith the moment the time was propnious.
The RAISES must go. That is the slogan from now on, and until
the German government is willing to accept that ulimatum it i use
less to attempt to talk of armistice, let alone peace.
The American people stand squarely behind President Wilson in
this determination; there is no doubt as to where the people of France,
Great Britain, Italy and other cobeligerents stand. 1t is only a
question of a short time when the German armies will be utterly de-
feated and nothing short of that will drive the kaiser from the throne
Ifand bring the German people to their senses. They have considered
themselves unbeatable. To end the w now, even when they are in
retreat all along the line, would still give them a chance to "a that
they had not been defeated.
German mlitarsm has got to be beaten and the kaiser has got to
be busted before there can be any peace talk, and at the peace talk
The allies viii do all the talking.

The greatest safeguard to perpetu-

the fourth Liberty Loan. The muir

barriers raised by tire Liberty Bonds
of the present M former issues.
C1othe yourself with the impenetrable
armor of Liberty Bonds OF the pres

find an early grave. The acquisition
of a Liberty Bond is the most precious
gift gallant America can bestow on
her free citizens. Buy a Bond instant

Anniversary OF the Death OF
KOsciuszkO

hiutftCISNGt OI tic Dedtn OF
KosciuszkO.
Today Is the 101st anniversary of
the death of Tadousz KosciuszlSo, the
Polish patriot who, after serving I'M
der Washington in America, made a
gallant but futile effort to free his ma
tive land from the despoilers. The
Industrious Pole spent his last year In
Switzerland. n on Oct. 16. 1917, he
was killed by a fall from his horse
over a precipice.
The remains of the patriot lie in the
Cracow cathedral. where they were
. removed by the Emperor Alexander,
and placed beside the bodies of So
bieski N Poniaowski. In the vicin-
iity OF rae there Is a novel monu-
ment to the hero. in the shape of q
mound of earth $50 feet high. which
was raised to his memory by the peo-
pie OF Poland. Contributions to the
mass of earth were brought from
every great battlefield upon which
+, Polish soldiers had shed their blood
There are a number OF monuments t.
F, the great Pole In the United States.
Kosciuszko was born In Lithuania
Poland. in 1746. and came of a noble
family. He was educated at the mill
tary academy at Warsaw and also In
France. at the expense OF the Polish
I government. An unhappy and unre-
- Pao1AofI LII liz ad4HtLCI u
one of the highest Polish o~ficers o
state caused him to leave his country
and seek surcease In foreign lands
! He determined to offer his sword tC
Washington, n in 1776. at the age
of thirty. he presented himself to the
! chief OF the American army, who
made him a colonel of engineers. He
was subsequently the principal sngi-
neer In executing the works at Wesl
Point. and became n of Washing
tons adjutants.
Before returning to Poland. at the
end of the war. Kosciuszko was hon.
pred with the thanks of Congress and
with the badge of the Cincinnati. In
1888 he entered the Polish army as
Major-General. and fought gallantly
In defense of the constitution, under
Prince P~oniatowski against the Rus
SLAMS. The patriots were soon over
whelmed. however. and Prussia and
