"hor THE PRESIDENTS WAR;"

Springfield, Mass, Republican: 1t
was Mr.. Roosevelt who popularlzed
the sentiment that this is not the
presidents war" 1t is as true now
as it was when Mr.. Roosevelt began
saying it, and it is something to re-
member in connection with the Ger
man peace proposals. 1t is not the
presidents war, nor is 1t merely
Americas war. 1t was Frances war,
and Britain's war and Italy's war be-
fore 1t was Americas war. Apply
these facts to the peace proposals and
begin to draw conclusions-where do
we land? 1t would seem necessary
to admit that the heavy responsibility
for the final decision on the pro-
posals Of Germany looking to peace
should not rest upon the president
alone. Can anyone demonstrate that
the allied governments abroad should
not share that responsibility with the
president of the United States? II
is their war, as well as ours; it was
their war before 1t became ours. If
the peace proposals are to be def
nitely rejected, if conditions are to
be dictated insuring perhaps, an in.
definite prolongation of the war, il
would be unjust to make the prest
dent bear the whole burden of the re-
fusal in history.

The front is quivering with the shock
Of attacks and counter attacks from

The Germans are blowing up

While attention was centered on
Valenciennes yesterday the armies OF
General Byng and General Rawlinson
edged forward south of that city, the
former covering the flank of General
Horne's attack south of Valenciennes.
Rawlinson's men beat off counter

AS the result of these operations,

Would Try the Kaiser.

Senator Reed, of Missouri: l think
the kaiser and other responsible
heads of the German and Austrian
governments should be put on trial
before an international court for their
crimes of having invaded peaceful
states and for the murder of I'M
offending citizens of those states.
They should likewise be put to
trial for crimes on the high seas,
and If convicted, be made to pay
the penalty for murder-not in a
spirit of vengeance-but for the same
reason that we punish common muir
derers. We do not execute murder
ers out of desire for vengeance, but
to prevent the killing OF innocent
people.
Il is time to teach the monarchs
Of the world that crown does not
protect its wearer against the con-
sequences Of his acts.

GIRLS RUNNING
THINGS THERE

The four Keokuk men at Knox col
lege write home that there Is not
much for the men to do there this
year but study and drill. for the
girls are monopolising all the student
activities formerly shared with them
to some extent by the masculine stu.
dents.
The Knox co-eds meet every Fri.
day night to do Red Cross work, keep
up their studies and other college
work for the faculty, and in addi
ton edit the weekly paper and the
Junior Annual, win letters in ath.
Tletics, and are raising $1,000 for the
united organization war aid work.
The girls also drill regularly on
the campus under an army officer
and are fully up to the requirements
of the newest woman in these wal
days. None has yet hired to the
street railway company to operate a
car part of each day out of college
hours, however.
This condition results from the
men being so busy as members of the
students army training corps, which
gives them all the work a man can
do.
This is the first time in the very
long history of Knox college that
the student publications have been
manned by girls.
