“But One Way to Peace, and That is the
Way to Berlio.”
"Editor Manufactures Record:
“My opinion is that ve cannot
consider any. terms of peace
whatsoever with the German
Government as now constituted.
Germany must, be licked and the
Hohenzollerns kicked oil the
throne before we can even talk
of peace without outraging jur
self respect.
The German military ring
must be broken and so shattered
that it can never be reunited.
Those who have been responsible
for the rape of Belgium and
Prance.those who have been re
sponsible for the heinous out
rages upon the civilian popula
tions overridden by Germany,
those who have been responsible
for breaking the rules el wai
a id using poismioas gas in battle,
those wiio have been responsible
for torpedoing passenger ves.- en
and hospital ships, and I *r droj
ping aerial bom ns on shore lior
pitals, those who have been re
sponsible lor the killing and
maimiug of women ami cmiu'c-n
in London and Paris with aeria,
booths, those who have been re
sponsible for breaking tile most
sacred treaties and obligation- -
have placed themselves beyond
the pale and cannot aim must um
be bargained with in any peace
arrangement.
Those militaristic bandits ol
the breed of Attilla who cold
bioodedly prepared to piuudet
the world and enslave mankind
and to that nefarious eim plann
ed to violate every human obliga
tion and attribuie of duty. niefCT"
and decency, and are not tit t
place their names to peace com
pact beside those of the heroes
who shall with sacrifice ol blood
and treasure, save the world
from their clutches.
Anyone proposing peace with
Germany before K liserism sbai]
have been crushed out of existnee
should either be interned or be
placed in an insane assy 1 urn for
medical treatment. There is
but one way to peace, and that is
the way to Berlin- It will be a
long, hard, expensive and bloody
road, but it is the only road, and
when we shall have arrived at the
end of that road we shall haveonly
a subjugated, suppliant, Kamrad
calling populace to deal with, and
toe terms which we shall then
make will not be terms of ati\
b again, but merely imposed by
os according to our ideas of jus
tice
J ustice will make one inexor
able demand on that occasion,
and it will be that Germany shall
boar the burden of rebuilding
and reimbursing Belgium and
the desolated portions of North
ern France in full measure, and
Alsace and Lorraine must be re
stored to France.
vVhat other terms must be im
posed will matter far less.

Rupprecht Has Brought up Reserves But
Alins Pause ef Their Own Accord.
With the British army in
France, August 12. —During the
lull in the battle there are furth
er indications that the line is
harden i ng.
i This afternoon the Crown
Prince Pupprechl of Bavaria
-ceins to have brought in more
fresh tr >ops and while the allied
I forces are pausing of their own
accord the enemy within the
area of his new battle front, with
the Somme at his back, is having
a most uncomfortable time. The
British guns are hammering
Chaulncs while cannon of large
calil,re are coming up all the
time and “drenching the enemy
rear with steel They are also
pounding away at the bridge
across the Somme at Betiiin
court.
The slielling of the bridges
here is a serious matter for the
enemw as bombs from the air
ire conliuuallv being dropped bv
British airplanes at a low alii
tude at the bridges in the IYron
ne district. This bombing' has
been gouig on day and night
since the battle began, forcing
the Germans to divert their trans
port, so that the genera! move
ment w is southeast.
No v his bridges to the south
east are under heavy tire.
With the comparatively small
force of Americans there has
been no real heavy lighting to
day. They are still holding
them lines and their patrols have
been sent out now and then feel
ing oul the foreground.
* At many places along the new
front, especially just south of the
Somme, the Germans are occu
pying the old line dugouts built
by the French more than two
years ago. The Germans have
concentrated artillery at many
places and today are sending in
more shells than on any day
since the battle began. Lihons
which came into British hands
yesterday when field Marshal
Haig’s men stormed the place
after having been driven out by
a counter at-.ack, was being
heavily shelled today.
A party of cavalry charging
down the Roye road ran into the
cross lire of large German pill
boxes studded with machine
guns just this side of Roye and
received a check, but the Ger
mans who happened to get the
opportunity to do this execution
paid the extreme penalty.
Today the resistance by the
enemy has been stiffening pro
gressively, but nis troops appear
to be nervous and apprehensivs
of wliat the future holds out for
them and what the allies intend
to do. The order to feel out the
allied force, it is expected that
further heavy counter attacks,
may be launched by the enemy.
Stcries of the air lighting over
the battle lines are amazing
One observer coming into his
station shot down four machines.
In the same fighting a British
pilot chased one enemy plain to
earth and was swooping down
upon his antagonist, when the
man climbed out of his machine
and heul up his hand in token of
surrender.
“So 1 didn’t kill him,” the
British pilot said.
* But on my way home I met a
group of enemy machines and
got a bullet in me but managed
to land inside our lines.”
The report of this incident
ends with the statement that the
pilot died shortly alter relating
his experience. -

A colored minister was about
to lead his congregation in prayer
when suddenly the floor of the
church sank a foot, causing a
commotion among the parishion
ers. The preacher was equal to
the occasion and quickly quieted
his flock by solemnly saying:
“Stay just whar yo’ is, my
people, de Lawd is wif’you!”
Immediately a big Mc.se Peters
j-u.mpt.ed upon a pew and shouted

cide who litis proven his va ue?
The answer is this:
There is nothing any man can
do more than his best. From
President Wilson down to the
business manager of a small fac
fcory and to the man who drives
the rivets, there is moral equal!
ty among all who do their best.
The factory manager who com
pletely sacrilices his personal
interests for production, the
man who drives the greatest
number of rivets that tie possi
biy can in a day—they have both
done their all. they have both
clone everything. That is com
plete, absolute, unqualified pa
triotisin.
