PEACF. RUMOURS ~
Rumours of peace, concluded or
impending, gain currency from time to time and the eagerness \vitli- which they are swallowed indicates very clearly the general war weari- ness and the hunger for peace. Nothing is to be gained by these rumours and no good can come of placing too much reliance upon
them. ' ;
Peace undoiibtedly is coming but
as yet it is on the far horizon. lt has been clearly set forth-' by the Allied governments that the \var can come to an end oniv by uncon- ditional surrender of (iermany.
our recent dcspatches wlncli mli- mated that the Allictl (_»overnments had agreed upon the terms \vhich they \vould consent to an _armistice and also on the condi- tions of peace which they shall ex- act of Germany. These terms and conditions will permit of no pre- varication on the part of (icrniany they mean complete surrender of the German Army and Navy, oc- cupation by the Allies of the forti- fied border towns, llelligoland and the Krupp Works. the evacuation of Alsace and Lorraine, besides restitution to and restoration of~ llelgiuin, indeninities to l"rancc and other conditions which it is unnecessary to repeat and which simply mean that (lermany lnust be in a condition of absolute im-

This was further corroborated by
- : oni ~
potence before an armistice is ag- reed to. _ _ , i}emiany’s ans\ver to this has not yet been received but’ it is not too much to assume that she is not ready for such an armistice or such a peace. \\'ith an army of three or four millions, a fleet of battlesliips and submarines, her armies still in the territory of her enemies, although she knows she is beaten. she is not yet sufficiently beaten to accept unconditional surrender. She wants' peace but she wants to have a say in the condi- tions_
As fr,equentl_v stated in these col-
umns it is possible that internal conditions in (lerniany may become such as to precipitate peace before she is sufficiently “licked" to take what the .\llies are going to give her eventually. This failing, there is nothing for it but to go on with the licking till :he cries “enough” and is glad to quit_Then, and not till then, she ~will be ready for un- conditional surreiidcr.In the mean- time let ns leave all peace talk to Foch; he is speaking the only lan- guage that Germany can under- stand.
The collapse of Austria and Tur-
key, and the opening up of the Dardanelles, recorded in our yes- terday's despatchcs will no doubt 'hasten the end, but German crook- edness and treachery are,yet to be reckoii_ed with.

iF THE SEAS
Une of the fourteen principles of
peace put forth by l’resitlei1l VVil- son declnrt-ra for “freedom of the seas in “peace and \vai'." lt is very necessary that this be fully elucid- ated because it may contain the root. of important differences among the Allies. llritain, whose supreme navy has been the great mainstay of the Allied cause, and the world`s safety, cannot consent to any “free- dom of "the seas" according to the German definition, andthe pro- position that- there should be free- dom of the seas in war, as well as in peace, requires prolonged con-I sideration of what future war con- ditions niay be. lf one thing is more certain than another it is that the llritisli people will refuse ab- solutely to'ahandon for a moment that naval policy which alone is the final security of the llritish lim-, pire. The Germans have had ex- cellent reasons for wishing in any: way possible to cripple the effect-g iveness of the I-lritish navy. lts, blockade has ‘been slbwly throttling them, amid thc cheers of most of the civilized world. lf they could
procure an international agreemen:
protecting merthant ships from capture at sea, even in war, they would lit one .stroke nullify the power of the Britisli navy, This was the root of the objection to the Conference of London. The United States Governnient itself has cham- pioned the legitimacy of a block- ade of an enctny`s coast, and of the capture of enemy ships at sea. Such a right is inherent, and no agree- ment can be effective that abolish- es it. Whatever Mr. Wilson may mean by “freedom of the seas in peace and war" he cannot mean dislocqiou or curtaiinient of the right and power of the British navy to sweep the.seas of the enemies of civilization, and to conduct war against such criminal aggressors as the Germans by every legitimate means. The navy that stood by Dewey in Manila Bay is riot the navy to abuse its power, Freedom of trade around the seas is granted all in peace time, and the Germans will enjoy it after the war. But no one will succeed in the conference room in impairing what the Ger- mans have failed to pull down at sea-British naval power.~

' In early fall and late spring ai good deal of loss is often incurred both by farmers and buy- ers iu the killing and buying of hogs during unseasosi- able weather. During the past few days, the city buyers inform us, carcasses were received here in a very unsatisfactory condition. The hogs had been killed on a rainy day, shiped during a rainstorin and when received in the city were in a condition which rendered por- tions of them unfit for packing. These losses can be avoided by .sel- ecting a clear cool day for slaiigli-
N-_ri,\g_ Many, no doubt to save time take a rainy day for their killing because other work cannot be done. It isa serious riistake and cannot ibut cause loss ei her to the farmer or the buyer or both. In a season when every pound of food is need- ed and when every pound is worth an unusually high price no chances should be taken. Time is no doubt valuable and there may be a tem- ptation to do work on a rainy day when outdoor work is impossible but the first consideration should be given to conservation, especially conservation of food.

SOCIALISM: ‘_‘Should the

At any ratc it is a la\v which should ` be enacted in every civilized country. Faithul men and women who have been respected and industrious in life and have not been able to savi- nioney should be cared for by thc state when they are too old to worl~; for themselves.
MAsTERs AND. SERV
VANTS: “\Vhat should be th-'.- relation between masters and servants in a true democracy?" asks “A Servant.” The relation should be fraternal. Masters should realize what is a fact, that they are made of the same flesh and blood as their servants, and that in the last analysis, they are th: same in any event. With our `civilization it seems essential that there should be both masters and servants, but they should respect and honor each other and study each other’s interests.

BETWEEN OURSELVES
Is the world getting better oi
worse, This appears to be a very debatable question, both sides having many supporters. What is your opinion? Its a big subject. Personally I have no hesitation, in saying, that the majority_of people are lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God, and that spiritual wickedness predominates in high as well as in low places.
After all, my brother or sister
(reading these lines) the question should be worded. Is the world better or worse for ()URliving in it_” That’s the question, that should interest us most just now. The words of our Saviour, are be- autiful (Matthew 5-16 “Let your light 'so shine before men that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven.”
I gave my life to thee. _ My precious blood I shed, That thou migIit’s ransomed be,
And quickcned from the dead;
I gave, I gave My 'life for thee, _ What hast»thou given tome? ‘foh Lord of Hosts ho with! as
yet, Lest we forget, lest welfar- .get.” During these days of anxiety, amidst separations, much sickness, bereavenients, business cares, high 'cost of living, and actual need in many cases, how much we should be in the spirit of prayer that 'our Heavenly Father,-might help us redeem the time, and be of service to others. In -A this connection »let me give you a beautiful yerse, (Isaiah 41.-6 “They helped every one his neighbor, and every .one
