GERMANY WILL SIGN.

The News cannot comprehend any
reason, sufficient or insufficient why
Germany should have any say as to
the terms of peace 1t may be
likened to fight between two in
dividuals and the terms Of peace in
such cases are usually made by the
victor. If the terms imposed upon
Germany by the allied powers seem
harsh, Germany should expect no
more. Germany waged an unrc-
lentless warfare. committed mnum-
cradle crimes against its enemies
and civilization, murdered inno-
cents, shot down Edith Cavell. de-
liberately dragged the United States
into the war after being repeatedly
warned of the consequences why
should Germany now be shown any
consideration except that based up
on mercy? The terms imposed
upon Germany would fail of their
purpose were they not severe sum
cient to serve as punishment for the
crimes committed The News
doubts if it be possible TO make them
sufhcient to meet justice without
violating the well-defned ideas of
mercy. We heard very recently the
death sentence imposed upon ne
gro in a court in this state. and it
was quite plain that the duty which
fell to the court officials was a hard
one. But it could not be helped
The convicted man asked for moth
ing but mercy But the discom-
future Of even spectators in the court
room was plainly evident when sen
tcnce was pronounced.
