that can hardly be impugned and.
therefore may be different, President-
Wilson's note to Russia, defining upon
vhat terms final terms peace must
come, is of like tenor with that of the
entente made in reply to the -German
note of several months ago expressing
willingness and readiness for a peace
conference. This sameness does not
mean as to specific indemnity, but as
to the principle towlt, to.be plain:
Crushing the power of the Hohenzol
lerns and so subjugating the spirit
that it cannot rise to mastery again in
the Fatherland. President Wilson in
his appeal to KLusSdvffjiakeithis plain.

Ifthis is to be construed as one of
the war aims of the United States it
must be highly appraised by Russia
and every foreign power that can be

selfish aim. The United States, alt
this hour, asks nothing in indemnity.
It does not desire nor covet territory,
nor does it seek reimbursement even
for the loss it has unnecessarily sus
tained. Russia especially should un
derstand that this object is in its be
half, as well as other struggling na
tions. It is 'measurement in the scales
of justice. It "should be a lesson to
all that America is in this fight alone

It meant some ocular evidence that
the fangs had been pulled and tb&y
would not grow again -
Just what Germany would have to
pay in indemnities, was not set forth
by the entente and therefore had not
become a part of the proposed terms
Np doubt there would be some, if em-
The cardinal aim of the United
States, which should be the aim of
all countries at-war with Germany, is
to have the 'present conflict end with
a guarantee, a physical guarantee, that
it will not be renewed; that democra
cy and not autocracy will rule. That
is why President Wilson asserts, in
his-note to Russia, that it is not suf-
braced only in proper restoration of -Sclent for Germany to agree, if she

demnity when he declares to Russia i status," declares the President, "must
that 'no indemnities must be insisted.be altered in such fashion as to pre-
on except those that constitute pay-. vent any such hideous thing from ever
ment for "manifest wrongs done."
This will, no doubt, be subject to
various interpretations. For our part,
we take it that it means payment of
only such money as, is necessary to
restore territory that was laid waste,
happening again
That is the crux of the situation; it
is the battle cry of today. If peace
would be declared simply by restora
tion of the status quo as before !t
would simply be an armistice. It
Polities may only require shooting
off mouth, but war requires shooting
off guns.
Evidently von .Hindenburg is not
making as much of a stand as the Ber

Great Britain and France are plac

trust in America.

Those German plotters convicted in
New York will find that the pen. is

This is good corn weather and it is
fine to think most of it will be consum

By now the slacker must feel like
swatting the fellow who declared he
would "rather be a live coward, then a
dead hero." "
In Europe a poet has been decorated
for bravery. In this country the peo

WILL BE A REVELATION.
i
We venture to say, judging by ear
marks, that those who attend Thurs
day night's i mass meeting, called by
the Food Conservation Commission of
New Hanover county, will be astound
ed, though greatly gratified, at the
progress thatvhas beqn made by the
object being promoted. At this meet
ing reports will be received from ev
ery part of the county, from the whites
and colored, 'and weelieve that these
reports are going to prove a revelation
to the man-who "had not kept in close
toach with what has been going on.
They are going to -show not only ac
complishment and preparation but
understanding. These things alone
will prove the worth of the great prop
aganda that has been going on in' this
county for the past several weeks.
They will also demonstrate to those
inspiring. Every man must do his
"bit"; "every man can do something
and it behooves every man to spend
his wind working rather than merely
talking. "Service" is the right, the
magical word for every man and every
woman in this great crisis.
Accused of Wife Murder.
St. Joseph, Mo., June 11. The case
of John E. Krucker, a prominent cit
izen of St Joseph, who is under in
dictment for the alleged murder of
his former' wife, Dagmar Krucker, was
called in court today for trial. Kruck
er has entirely recovered from a re
volver wound, self-inflicted, when his
wife was killed.
Commencement at Lafayette.
Easton, Pa., June 11. Shorn of all
the social festivities customary in
previous years, today's commencement
at Lafayette College was marked by
extreme simplicity. The address be
