Kecord subscription business was
better in 1917 than in 191G, and we
will have to travel some this good
year if we keep pace with former
records. But more peope are com
ing to recognize that time moves
so swiftly that they will miss a great
deal if they wait for the news.
The Democrats control the house
of representatives by a majority of
2 votes, as the Springfield Republican
observes, but the Americans control
it by a majority of 435 to 0. There
is where Democrats and Republi
cans of intelligence stand.
Although there may be a big de
mand for sugar, it is a fact that
more sorghum is being consumea
this winter than ever before though
the consumption per capita must
have been greater in civil war days.
ening in our weaker neighbors,
through the integrity and firmness
of our policy, the conviction that
their independence and their inter
ests are bound up with Germany
and are best secured under the pro
tection of the German arms. This
conviction might lead to an enlarge
ment of the triple alliance into a
central European federation." To
this policy, the break-up of Russia
has given a scope that could hardly
have been expected when Bernhardi
wrote. Each of the fragments be
comes one of these weak neighbors
who are to be brought under the
protection of German arms. In
some cases force may not be rce
sary; appeals to fear or to seifinter
est may serve. ' Wjith Russia no
longer a great power, the vl.cij
world could not protect them
against Germany's methodical massa
cre and pillage: simply for protec
tion they may feel obliged to be
come German vassals.
In other cases tempting: com
mercial opportunities may be offered
or class may be played acraJinst class
and race against race. During a
prolonged military operation Ger
many has had time to pick out ser
viceable flpols, to orgamze propa-
iganda to get rid of patriots, to work
up a sham demand for closer rela
tions with Germany. The German-
made premier of Poland, it is an
nounced, is hereafter to take part
in the negotiations at Brest-Litovsk.
Germany now expects to win, the
war not by force but by cleaverness
and it is well that the allies are be
ginning to realize the fact. j
