HIS NEXT MOVE.
NE need be no great prophet tn predict that the kaiser will
launch a new peaee offer before Chrititmas. Jle will be
only following the great and frequently stupid game of inter
national diplomacy. It's a game very much like poker. The
kaiser discarded the Russian card, so to speak, and drew Italy
That he will bluff that he filled his royal flush is a foregone
conclusion.
What Von Mackensen has done to the Italian forces is noth
ing to be very cheerful about. Within less than a week he threw
v.. e.. . i ... 1- . 1 . . I. . r. I- .! .
his lorces, irenienuousiy ouiuuinoenng me. Italians, inirty miles
forward, forced them out of the mountains and onto the plains,
where he is Rtill hammering thein. lie has taken Udine, about
seventy-five miles northeast of Venice, and has so isolated some
units of the Italian army that, according to dispatches from Rome,
they had to communicate with the main forces yesterday by usinp
carrier pigeons. General Cadorna is preparing to make a stand
on the Tagliomento river. Outnumbered and in desperate need
of munitions, this southern ally of our will have to fight super
latively to halt the invader, and it is exceedingly doubtful if
Britain and France can be of material assistance for the present.
Before good news comes again from the southern front we will
hear of another defeat.
And we can be certain that this temporary victory of Teuton
arms will be magnified many fold "back home" in Austria and
Germany. So, with his grip on Riga, on great parts of Belgium
and the Balkans and a small section of Italy quite disregarding
the splendid victories of the French and British on the western
front and pointing only to his own advantages, the kaiser will
very likely say something as preposterous as this:
"I am a man of peace; I did not wish this war. The people
of the earth are weary of war. Hade strong by my faith in
Almighty God, I am ready to lead the way to peace. will be
magnanimous; I will withdraw from my conquests."
Germany wants one thing above everything else that is peace.
But so do the peoples of France and Kngland and Italy, not so
desperately, still they are war-weary, and how could they be else!
The whole world is weary of this gigantic, stupid, endless wate
of men and treasure. And that is exactly the reason the allies
will scorn the disengenuoiis advances of the war lord. To grant
him peace would be to grant him the open door to new and
more terrible conquests. This war must not breed another war.
The job of ending it must be done well so well that peace terms
cannot be dictated from Potsdam.

WATER 13 SOUGHT FOR.
THAT conservation haR become the watchword of the country
is evidenced by the keen search after available water in
ibis state. Every running brook and every stream is being pre
empted, particularly in the southern portion of the state, where
agriculture was at one time deemed a joke and where cattle
r.lising was an unproved industry; but where now there are ear.
l'ads after carloads of undressed beef and muttons going to
the abattoirs, and tin; .potato crop alone is far above the demand
of this section. This paper would suggest that there be more
nativity evidenced in the development of subterranean flows. The
solar engine should prove an economical method of providing
power. Gasoline is always available. The hills are covered with
1'u. leu wood, which serves no useful purpose, and it could be used
us fuel for developing steam for the boring and pumping processes.
Let somebody with an atom of foresight get busy on this
proposition and help provide the world with the products of the
soil that are so neeessary, whether we are at peace or war. It
is .noney as well and as safely invested as though it had been
put in Liberty Bonds.

THERE'S A REASON.
NE-IIALF billion dollars a vein- is being contributed to Uncle
Sam bv the liquor interests under the new war taxes. lie
tote October 4th whisky was taxed $1.10 a gallon; today the ta
is ifilO more, making $3.20 a gallon. Beer is taxed &1.00
barr.'l instead of $1.50; wine from 10 cents to 25 cents a gallon
And besides all that not to speak of the increased cost of labor
ootil ng, cooperabe, etc. the distilling of whisky has been pro
hibit -d d u riu i! the war. The stock of it in the bonded ware
hoiisig w the smallest in many years. .Naturally those who own
it are asking full prices. Don't berate the liquor man because he
raises his prices. It is rather obvious that he has to, if he wants to
stay in business.

LONDON'S RECOGNITION OF SILVER.
A 'i-LIM dispatch from London the other day said that there
aa the world's greatest silver market, silver has become
eurrei.t unit of exchange. The same dispatch told of the jump
to !0 5-8. It is not unlikely that London will go further ii
establishing silver as a standard money metal. Like this country
England has heretofore persistently refused to accept silver as f
medium of exchange. It is perhaps too early to definitely guage
the significance of her change in attitude, but it is distinctly
step in the right direction.

GERMAN "DEMOCRACY."
'() THOSE optimists who professed to see a tendency to
wards democracy and sanity in the kaiser's government,
the Mpointment of Count Von Mertling to succeed Miehaelis as
chancellor must have been a wholesome shock. Von Ilertling is
a junk jr of junkers, a Bavarian aristocrat who believes in the
divine right of kings and all the rest of the vicious bunkem of
reaction. His appointment is sufficient comment on the sincerity
of German officialdom's protestations of new liberalism.

AMSTERDAM. Nov. 1. Substitutes
for textiles and foodstuffs constitut
ed an important feature of the recent
autumn fair at Leipzig, Germany, uc
cording to the Schleslsche Zeltung.
"The foodstuff industry shown at
the fair which might be better de
scribed as a 'substitutes industry'
still is in the development singe,"
says the paper, "but.it already 1ms
given such strong proofs of the
justification of its existence that it
deserves the greatest encouragement
on the part of the authorities. The
true value of ;the substitutes for tea.
coffee, oil, uiiacco, soup flavorings,
meat extracts ami vegetable soups
will only .be Realized after the war
if the too numerous regulations are
nii cir.ded andt good raw material ife
available. i
"In, the paper section there were
exhibited manufactured articles
which had attained a surprising de
gree of success. To a certain extent
it was difficult to distinguish table
cloths, napkins, aprons, hat ribbons
and even petjicoats, for the manu
facture of which paper had been
chiefly employed, from similar
articles made bf the real material.
"The general characteristic of the
seventh war fair was the want of
goods. This was due to dearth of
raw materials and shortage of labor.''

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 1 The public!
kitchens established throughout the'
German empire since the beginning'
of the war would now be able to sup
ply food for about one-fourth of the
population, according to a statement
published by the German war office
It would appear from this statement
that there was 2,200 such establish
inentB in the empire and that their
ordinary capacity amounted to the
production in a recent month of 2,
r,0it,000 quarts of food.
There are In the German empire
communes having 10.0(H) or more
inhabitants each. Only about 50 of
these now are without public kitch
ens. The majority of towns report
establishments providing mid-day din
nors only, although all the kitchens
are equipped for supplying at least
two meals dally.
In Berlin there are now fit! public
kitchens. The number of persons
who obt.'iin food from them fluctuiitep
In a reuiarUatle manner. In rocen
weeks I he number of participants
has averaged about 170.000 dally.
