RICHMOND

many people back in the States are in
cllned to- feel; they commit brutal acts
which only men who are brutes at
heart would think of. In return for
the kind treatment the German prison
ers are working as hard as the Ameri.
cans on various kinds Of detail work
which will help France after the war,
as well as helping hasten the defeat
of Prussianism. The guards say they
couldn't drive the prisoners away.
Called "SleepIess Snakes"
The Germans are unconsciously pay
ing great compliments to our soldiers.
The Huns call the Yanks "Sleepless
Snakes" because they are always &C.
tive and it can never be told when and
where they will strike. When a Yank
is taken prisoner, which isn't often,
because almost anybody would rather
be killed outright than to have to
suffer as prisoners in the hands of
Germans, he suffers all kinds of abuse
before he will turn his hand to work
which will help the Huns prolong the
war.
Don't get too optimistic over this
news. Germany isn't whipped yet.
The general opinion is that Germany
must be completely crushed before
her leaders will sue for peace which
will cause them to lose their jobs.
Undoubtedly the German morale is
getting bad but the general German
public has been disciplined SO well
that they are like the common Ger
man soldier, they have to have their
thinking done for them and they have
not enough initiative and nerve to
start a revolution even if they wanted
to.
There can be no doubt that the way
America is getting into the affair is
having a great effect upon the morale
of our Allies who of course are war
tired but game and ready to sacrifice
everything in preference to letting
Germany slip out of this affair with
out punishment. America must not
fall down on the task. The heroic
veterans of our Allies accept the
Yanks most heartily and a spirit of
friendship exists which will no doubt
have a great deal to do with the
much talked of League of Nations"
Likes the British.
By the way, hope our school sys-
tenn abolishes those American his
tories which influence school children
to look at the British in the wrong
light. The British have forgotten
their trouble with us years and years
ago as was proved by the way they
are celebrating our Fourth of July but
our school histories won't let us for
get that old sore. The English lads
are treating us fine every place.
always feel ashamed when l think of
how l used to look upon them as the
natural enemy of the Americans. Eng
land is doing her share in this war
and she isn't making her colonies spill
all the blood either as Dame Rumor
would sometimes lead people in the
States to believe. In fact, we can sure
feel proud of all our Allies.

GERMANS TO LOSE

ter theory comes close to the Bulgar.
ian state of mind.
The allies have made a reply which
should enable them, if their proposal
is accepted to Judge which of these is
the real purpose Of Bulgaria. A con-
ference without an armistice will
prove what the enemy really desires.
First reports of Bulgaria's step re-
ceived here came through Germany
and had the inevitable Germany color
in it. 1t was said that the Bulgarian
premier had acted on his own re-
sponsibility, but the fact that mem
Der of the Bulgarian cabinet had been
nominated as one of the representa-
tives of Bulgaria on the way to con-
fer with the allied commanders seems
to disprove this German report.
Excitement in Germany.
There is great excitement in Ger
many over Bulgaria's STEP" says re-
port through German channels receiv
ed here from neutral countries, and
there is no reason to doubt that this
is true Almost all news from Bull
garia and Turkey comes through Ger
many and even German papers have
shown symptoms of keen anxiety as
to the loyalty Of Germanys allies
Signs are not wanting that Bulgaria
and Turkey feel that they are in the
same boat. When Talaat Pasha, the
Turkish grand vizier, visited Berlin
recently, he gave an interview in
which he said the war must end this
winter and that it had accomplished
all that it could. German newspapers
expressed considerable uneasiness and
displeasure over this utterance, which
they plainly interpreted as meaning
that SO far as Turkey was concerned.
the war would end this winter.
If Bulgaria throws up her hands,
she cuts the vital cord which connects
Germany and Asia. She deals a
death blow to Germany's Asiatic ambi-
ton. If Turkey also raises the white
flag she will enable the allied armies
in Macedonia and Palestine to be shift
ed to the western theatre of war. The
detection of Bulgaria alone would
make it possible for the great allies
army to turn against Turkey from its
base at Saloniki.

til it was officially reported from
London last night that Americans
were anywhere along this sector of
the battle line in France.
Yesterdays attack against the Hin

for the allies. Northwest and west OF
Cambria the British smashed their
way ahead for distance of two or
three miles and seem to have broken
into the German defenses to such an
extent that the enemy apparently
must readjust his lines if he intends

U. S. DRIVE BEGINS.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S-America
today set itself to the task of raising
loan of $6.O0O,000,O0O in three
weeks. Although this was twice the
minimum of any previous liberty loan
and by far the greatest war credit
ever undertaken by any nation, treas
ury department officials were certain
that the sum would be oversubscribed.
Their confidence was expressed in
the announcement that the surplus
would be allotted. Officials felt that
it was favorable augury for the
fourth liberty loan that the campaign
got under way just when the American
army was pressing forward in a great
offensive in France and Bulgaria was
suing for peace, starting the long ex-
pected disintegration of the central

slow In coming up. The allies have
had chance to discern what It's all
about and con be expected to meet the
emergency now.
Thus we find another offensive short
OF definite objective. Some advantage
has been gained; the German army Is
in better position than it was-that
is, it is closer to Paris, closer than it
has been in four years, but 1t will take
further major efforts to get there. II
the invaders are checked now, the
allies will surround them with wall
Of steel as they have surrounded them
in Flanders and on the Picardy front.
The enemy tried the Flanders front and
faileds They now have three fronts.
The question rises, are they strong
enough to maintain the three and at
the SAND time lead great offensive in
one?
We may look for them to go ahead.
They can not stop. They must win this
year If they are to win at all and the
only way they can win this year is to
destroy the armies facing them. This
has not been accomplished and it does
not look like 1t can be accomplished in
the time selected. There are several
months of fighting weather and the
allies must, some way, hold the fort
until the Americans get there in force.
When the allies are able to meet
them man for man there is never any
question about the result. We may be
pretty we'll assured that they are now
organized against them man fof man
and gun for gun. The big day for the
allies, however, seems to be still in the
distance.
