The Fight Of Civilization.

We nHOW tuat neltneF germany nor
this country nor the rest OF the world
can return to happiness and peace end
fruitful labor Until II shall have been
made manifest. bitterly and unmistak-
ably manifest. to the rulers who bear
the blood guilt for this wanton wal.
and to their nisinformed and misguid-
ed peoples that the spirit which UNI
chnined It can not prevail. that tho
hateful doctrines and methods In pur-
sna &c Of which. and in compliAnce
with which. 1t IL conducted are rejected
with ahhorrence by the civilized world.
and that the qver-weening ambitions
which it was meant to serve can never
be achieved. The fight for civilization
which we all fondly believed had been
won many years ago must be fought
over again In this sacred struggle Il
is now our privilege to take no mean
part. and our glory to bring sacrifices.

was somewhat irregular during tOday's early
trading, but after opening points higher TO l
point lower, flrmed up the failure Of the
weather map TO show expected rains in the
southwest the continued firmness of Liverpool
and renewed trade buying. March sold up TO
81 g., making high ground for the move
ment on talk Of further reductions in the Local
stock, while May advanced to "a, and July
TO 80. 50. about IL to - points net higher
on tire general list. People who had sold ON
with covering. Liverpool reported a good de-
mand for May and July with very little sell
ing.
The advance extended TO 81 80 for May and
1912 for October, about % tn 43 points
net higher. before tue end of the morning.
The persistent demand from trade sources, Iiv-
crpOol buying and the bullsh character of spot
adyices, seemed To be attracting a broadening
market. There was enough realizing the
advance 10 cause slight reactions around mil
day, however, and trading comparatively
quiet early in the noon hour. According TO a
canvass made by the British cotton control
board, stocks of American cotton in and afloat
for Great Britain February 30, amounted to
Gj3,9S3 bales, and the average weekly con-
sumption of Great Britain to A, 500 bales.
Trading was less active during the early
afternoon and there some realizing re-
ports that spots offering more freely in
