HOW RIGHT

General Organ, commando OF the Twenty
seventh Division, is thus quoted: Its al very
nice to talk about the forces Of right having tri-
urnphed over the forces Of might when we are
discussing the war in which the american armies
won their battles in Flanders ard Belgium, but
there is this to keep in mind. The forces of right,
which we were, only won tneir ultimate victory
because We were mightier in physical strength,
n courage and in resources than the so-called for
ces OF might of the German empire. We went
against the best they had, the Prussian Guards,
and beat them. We were the 'rnigftier than
might outfit"
General Organ is altogether correct, although
ne may be slightly sarcastic at the expense of
certain misinterpreted public utterances. No
sane person has ever contended that right mere
y as an intellectual conception could overcome
n.gnt in the form of guns and armies. Crom-
"ell is reported to have said: Trust in Provi-
lcLce but keep your poWdt dr.. Providence is
IN the side of the strongest battalions." I'm
doubted right, if standing naked and helpless, will
go down before might even in the most corrupt
md hateful form. That is se.f-evident. But right

THE COSTS.

The cost of our war with Germany is now eS-
tinlated at $780, 900, 900. The cost to England
IS stimated at more than forty billions; to
France, more than twenty-three billions to Italy,
sixteen billions; to Canada, two billions. The to-
tai for this country and the Allies named amounts
to more than SIP, OOO,O 900, 600. These figures
represent merely the money paid out for war ex-
penses, and do not include devastations, damages
TO property, trade and other losses of incalcula-
bic extent. On the war debts incurred by actual
expenses we and our allies must pay ten billions
a year in interest.
Our war with Germany cost us about five
times as much as the war of 1865, a struggle
lasting more than twice as long. This was not
merely because of a higher scale of prices for
everything but because the war with Germany
was a much bigger undertaking and was waged
in a big way with a view to smash the opposing
force in the shortest possible time. Though the
bill is staggering, the method is commendable be-
cause it brought the struggle to a speedy end and
saved hundreds of thousands of lives. The total
Of the slain in all the nations at war has been es-
timated at nearly seven and a half millions. In
view of such jstupendous loss of life and treasure,
It is no wonder that a chastened world turns with
horror from the thought of more war and that
the leaders of the nations are striving to provide
means to secure lasting peace.
