Paris, Oct. 17.-From question to
question, reply to reply, and retire
ment to retirement, Germany be-
lieves she can escape an imminent
catastrophe at least cost. That which
Berlin politicians want above all Is
to save all possible of their armies
and prevent the invasion Of German
countries.
In the precise formula laid down
by President Wilson one question was
quickly seized upon by the German
press as capable of affording grNurd
for conversat ton and discussion. rs
Germany disposed to evacuate all
countries invaded by her armies
Necessity makes law. And in the
same way she invaded Belgium, as a
preliminary she would willingly agree
to evacuate Belgium and the French
provinces if all she had to do we're to
retire her armies therefrom. to re-
move them within her own frontiers
And those armies would do we'll hy
that move
They would escape the terrible
pressure of the Allied armies With
drawn in good order in Alsace-Lor-
raine and Luxemberg, they would
gain the time required to reform
themselves with the class of 1920 and
men in home depots and would await
battle at the Threshold Of the en-
pire.
Beyond doubt. an evacuation of tits
Kind, with arms and equipment, is
neither according to the etler nor the
spirit of President Wilson's formula.
But there must be no evacuation.
The American and Allied press has
made the necessary commentaries SO
that nobody can be unaware of this.
IT cannot be a question of free eva
cuation with the honors of war.

homeward in order or disorder. be-
cause they are not invested.
Therefore our consent to evacua-
ton lacks practical sense if unac-
companied by a contract TO leave all
material of combat in the invaded
territories.
And here, again. how can this b9
adequately controlled? Now, it is
not possible to let these armies, I re-
peat, get away TRANQUILITY with arms
and equipment. You cannot place
confidence in the word of Germany.
Thus the rigorous conclusion-only
battle can force the evacuation of the
invaded countries by destroying the
German armies or hurting them back
into German territory and there pur-
suing them without pause.
If Germany capitulates completely
she must carry out the clauses of ca
pitulation, that, is, surrender her
arms. But we are unable to believe
in such breaking up any more than in
the sincerity of this capitulation. Be-
sides if we admit that Germany will
accede to military conditions of eva
cuation and retreat, doesn't Alsace-
Lorraine form part of the invaded
countries? And on the pther hand,
will the Allied troops halt at the from
tier? After having delivered their
sacked and devastated countries. Will
the victorious soldiers of the Entente
remain opposite the intact German
territory, forbidden to penetrate there
and powerless to occupy it to guaran-
tee reparations and as punishment Of
crimes committed?
Indispensable Guarantees.
The reply to these questions is
made in advance. II is essential that
the Allied armies enter German ter
ritory and occupy that which is nee
essary for Indispensable guarantees
and penalties. Already an American
newspaper has determined an exact
account of the French and Belgian
territories that have suffered the tor
ture of invasion and calculated to
what point compensatory occupation
In the Rhine country must be extend
ed
1t cannot be otherwise. Thus the
question of responses are futile. The
capitulation of Germany will not be
complete until her conquered armies
have been disarmed and conducted to
the other side of the Rhine.
Whether that be by the force of
the Allied armies, the cannon of Foch
or by guaranteed retreat, the whole
secret of victorious peace lies in
this: The Imperial German army
which has been the instrument of war
and Hohenzollern domination of the
empire founded by Prussia must be
broken. Dissolution of the military
force of the empire is the only guar |
intee of European and world peace. |
Let us not confound a vague for
nula of militarism with military |
force itself. The formula has small |

Denver, Colo. Nov. 7.-One of the
most important requests since the be-
ginning of the war has just been re-
ceived by the Colorado state council
of defense, outlined in the following
telegram from Washington.
More than ten thousand additional
nurses will be needed for the army
nurse corps by January first. An
other twenty-five thousand will be
needed by June first
"An impression that no more nurses
are needed in military hospitals has
gone out This must be killed i'm
mediately."
This means that war work must not
stop in Colorado just because of the
talk of peace" Demands are just as
urgent as ever-if not more so. No
cessation of activities in any branch
must be shown.

Hold Your Liberty Bonds.

Some get-rich-quick concerns are en-
deavoring to persuade patriotic Lib
erty bond holders, whom they know
will not sell outright their Liberty
bonds, to turn over their Liberty bonds
to these companies as security for a
loan and with the money thus bor-
rowed purchase stock in their COM
panies.
A Liberty loan bond is the safest
investment in the world, and a pru-
dent man will very carefully investi-
gate any effort to induce him to ex-
change it for less safe investment
This lending one money on Lib
erty bonds as security to purchase
stock in the lenders company is in
many cases only thinly disguised
method of exchanging stock of doubt.
full value for Liberty bonds of unques-
toned value.
1t is a good business and it is parti-
otism to hold your Liberty bonds.

WAR SITUATION
There May be Few More Weeks of
Fight and May End Any Day.

The end Of the war is assured in a
very short time now, and may be
closed before this is before our readers.
At most Germany standing alone and
with riots and rebellion breaking out
all over the nation cannot last but a
short time. 1t is no longer a ques-
ton of months or even weeks but days
until the allied armies are in complete
control. 1t is now evident that the
lust for murder, robbery and rape,
which the Hun rulers turned loose on
Belgium and France, will be return
ed to them at home through a new
Bolsheviki government similar to Rus
sia's monstrosity. The German will
pay for the damage done France and
Belgium in money, but also in blood
and misery at home. 1t will be gen.
erations before another nation dares
attempt to govern the world through
force.
Turkey and Austria have surrender
ed Internationally and only Germany
remains and rumor now has it she
also has surrendered.

FLU" SITUATION
Officers Take Vigorous Steps to
Combat Disease.

The growing menace of the dreaded
'flu" caused the health officers of the
county and city to take vigorous
methods last week. Drastic regula-
tions with regard to gathering on the
streets were made, and the officers
leased the Friend Sanitorium for u
special stu" hospital. AS soon as it
was ready patients began to come in
rapidly. In some instances whole
families had the disease and could get
no help. At this time about fifty
patients are in the new hospital. VOL
unteer help responded nobly but many
of ladies, who so unselfishly took up
the work, contracted the disease them
selves that a shortage of helpers has
been hampering the work all the time.
Arrangements have now been made for
sufficient help from the outside, and
the vigorous steps taken seem to have
at last accomplished the desired end.
The last few days have witnessed a
diminishing number of new cases daily
and it is hoped that the scourge has
run its course here as it has in many
of the other cities of the state.
The loss of life has been far great
err than in any other calamity that has
ever struck our city, and the same ap-
plies to the state and nation. II 1t

of Mandan was arrested here today

over to the federal term of court on

According to the charges filed
against him, Schaller is declared to
have said: THE President of the
United States is nothing more than
a figurehead for the junkers' of this
country; the American boys in the
trenches will never do anything;
the German Socialists and Russians
will settle the war; peace will
