an acceptance, saying that she had

feel comfortable about the matter,
would keep the souvenir intended for
her as memento of a very pleasant

When the dinner came of every one

for they had not been able financially

PEACE CELEBRATION

The spontaneous outborst Of joy
manifested, not locally only, bat
throughout the world. at the
coming of peace was from the
heart. and it was universal
Our joy was the greater because
of complete victory, of the achiey-
ement Of all we had fought for, the
added prestige to our great country
in the manifestation of its power
and the example it has set the world
in the enforcement of high ideals
of international morality and of
popular rights.
Americans felt all Of this. The
national heart never swelled with
a greater pride, or pride more just
but, beyond all of this was the JOY
at the return of peace.
Those who knew little of the
underlying causes of the great war
and understood but dimly the de-
tails of its progress, had full com
prehension of its horrors, and so
felt a corresponding thrill of JOY
at the coming of peace.
The exuberant celebration here
yesterday was in accord with what
took place throughout the nation
and in all of the countries with
which the United States hasbeen as
sociated in thewar There wasdeep
rejoicing in the stricken lands long
under the invaders foot; in those
that were released from centuries
of thraldom of foreign rule, and
even in Germany there must have
been a feeling of real qualification
at the end of war that compensated
for the sting of defeat.
There was never before a war
that involved so nearly the whole
world, and for that reason never
before such widespread rejoicing
at the coming of peace.
Peace on earth, good will to
men," was the gladdest tidings that
ever came to a weary world filled
with strife and malice. The peace
we celebrated yesterday, it is de-
voutly to be hoped, has advanced
the realization of that Cody SEN

VAST PROBLEMS

With the military strength of
the central powers destroyed and
hostilities brought to a close under
terms that preclude a renewal of
the struggle, the United States
Aand the allied governments find
themselves confronted with a vast
number of difficult problems that
must be solved. Questions of
peace, reconstruction and the
breaking up of the army are stu
pendous tasks, and will call into
play the best thought of the abIest
men of the countries involved.
The breaking up and return to
civilian life of the great army mo-
bilized during the past nineteen
months, and giving to the boys
who helped to win the great vic
tory that consideration due them,
will prove problem to the United
States of no small proportions. 1t
is believed, hover, that the re-
turn of the nearly two and quar-
ter million men who are now in
France. and the mastering out of
the million and a half troops in
camps will not come all at once,
and perhaps not Immediately.
The American people with their
plenty will be called upon to feed
Europe. This will be no easy task,
for those countries are going to
find themselves very greatly in
need Of food supplies.
1t is insisted that along indus
trial lines the change from war to
peace will create as many prob
lens as did the change from peace
to war.

SHOULD BE PROSECUTED

SHOULD BE PROSECUTED
The Democrat endorses most
heartily the following from the
Commercial Appeal:
"A monarch surrounded by mil
lion of armed men, having upon
his forehead the chrism of coro-
nation, holding in his hand the
scepter of rule, is just as respon-
sible for acts he commits contrary
to the common law of human
society as is a highwayman, who
proceeds to kill and murder, if he
finds it necessary, in order to come
in possession of the money of the
man making a journey on the
public road. Indeed, the monarch
and his court are the more culp-
able because, having the greater
power and greater position, the
greater is their accountability"
1t is being insisted that the
allies should constitute a great in
ternational court, articles of indict-
ment should be drawn against
William, now robbed of his power,
and against his advisers and res
ponsible generals, and that they
should be tried for murder and if
found guilty should be made to
suffer for their crimes.
1t is said that such proceeding
is not without precedent. But it
is rather questionable whether any
action of this kind will be taken
against the dethroned kaiser and
his advisors.

UNHOLY AMBITION

Ambition is a great thing when
properly directed. But ambition
guided by an unholy sel6shness is
a very dangerous thing.
The kaiser was ambitious, but it
was an unholy ambition, guided
by a selfshness that was dangerous
and proved exceedingly disaster
Gus.
He was at the head of a great
country. He only had to speak
the word and millions of people
Obeyed. His authority was abso-
Lutte. He had studied the sue
cesses of the world conquerors of
the past, and filled with a roman
tic vision, be saw himself a greater
conqueror than these. He worked
and planned to bring all lands and
all seas under his rule. A mighty
army was organized. His people
were dazzled at their own power
to do things, and many of their
achievements amazed the world.
Feeling that the time had come,
be grasped frivolous thing as an
excuse to plunge practically all
Europe in a war,
France and Russia reeled under
the first blows, and England was
made to stagger, but the United
States came in with mighty
force, the tide was changed and
victory came.
He had doomed London to de-
struction. He hoped to see the
ascending smoke from burning
Paris. His soul decreed that the
walls Of dying France and dying
England would fall as sweet music
on his ear
This man with an unholy am.
bition and with mighty power to
execute is now an outcast. He is
a vagrant without home. He is
friendless and really stands in the
world without a name. He is dis
pissed by his former subjects. and
hated by those who formerly de-
lighted to show him obeisance. A
small man with great ambition
and mighty power brought to ruin
and held in contempt by the en-
tire world.

To read the utterances of the
former kaiser, made when his
army was winning, and contrast
them with the conditions as they
exist now, one sees the folly of
Boosting and the uncertainty of
power when vested in human
hands. One time he said: The
foe is defending his native soil
foot by foot. This is the resistance
of dispair, but it must be broken.
He has prepared his soup and now
he must sup it. | look to you to
see to it," He did not realize then
that he was preparing cup
which he must drink to the dregs.
His cup is full of sorrow and
shame and he will have to sup it to
the bottom, and the bottom will
not be found during the remainder
of his days.

ton TO kaiserism have been i'm
prisoned, fined aud prosecuted in

they saw Germany delivered over
to the monster of militarism and
Pan. Germanism. doubtless these
leaders of a forlorn hope felt near
to despair. Now through this
same war they behold the downfall

opposed so long, and in the ruins
