There | wson to hope that Germany rupture with the United since we are really her best friend among the neutral can be of invaluable ser peace negotiations actual- iy begin. The desire of Germany to end the war is unquestionable. Peac feelers have been repeatedly put for ward, and the belief in its early coming strengthens daily. The great- est hindrance to peace now is the rong inclination of the Allies to to push the war to a final conclusion. The final struggle between the crmies of the Central Powers and the Entente is probably vet to come: as vet neither side has con- Guered, and no satisfactory or last- ing peace can be established until one side or the other has been forced into submission. Thus while peace is in the air, and while tI mad thirst for war has been superseded { by a sane longing for peace, there ic no immediate prospect as vet for any such conclusion. The war promises to continue for some time vet, unless something happens which will compel concessions on both sides. Meanwhile, peace talk will grow, and #11 rational efforts to that end should bc encouraged for the good of the Felligerents in particular and the henefit of mankind in general. The Mexican outlook is far from satis- factory, and the danger of coming more deeply involved quarter constantly are certainly threatened ana costly difficulty, the which cannot at this time seen, Tremendous Bank Clea How long the feverish business activity of the last few months to continue?
