The great fighting vessels of today have a top speed of 25 miles an hour with a gun range of 25 miles so that an engagement may tommence the moment they sight one another even if only the tops of the masts appear in the offing. A naval suthority writing of the tn- terception of the German navy on its Teturn from the Baltic says: “When Admiral Sir John Jellicoe has maneuvred the British battle fleet into a position to cut off the German retreat the decisive naval action will take place. With the German fleet racing for a safe haven, such as the mouth of the Elbe or into the Baltle sea, it should be a running fight, with the main engagement under way while the fleets were practically out of sight —ten or more miles apart “With the two monster fleets foam. ing along at well over 20 miles an hour, a battle between thunder clouds hurling out flashes of lightning would be mild In comparison. At first the battle would be between the big Prit- ish guns trained forward and the af- ter guns of the Germans fighting a rear actlon as they ran ahead. As the British battle fleet with superfor speed and longer range gradually overtook the Tun in line, more of the broadside guns would come into_action: firing at the rate of about two shots per minute—each 13.5-inch shell weigh- ing 1,960 pounds, fired with an energy equal to 57,000 foot-tons. Such appal- ling power, contained in each big gun, is bound soon to force the retreating fleet to face its pursuer. The most severely damaged battleships would be baiterad almost to a standstill, and the faster and stronger portion of the fleet would have to ease up and stand by its erippled companions, or aban- don them to capture or destruction, “When the fleets were near enough for & torpedo attack, the naval battle | would be nearly at an end. Tt may be finished as started, with fast erulsers fighting a running action with | the remnant of the enemy, in a des- perate attempt to prevent one enemy ship from escaping. The part to be played by the submarine hoat and the Seaplane is an unknown factor.” One thing s certain, the naval bat- tles will not be of long duration and for carnage and fierceness there is Bothing in the world's histories to be compared with these prospective en- sagements. WHERE THE DANGER LIES. It was Mr. Balfour who declared: “Starvation, not invasion, was the danger of England;” and it is no less the danger of Germany. The countries allied with Germany Bave 151,000,000 people and those ai- lied with Ergland 250,000,000 people. Staly's declination to cooperate re- duces the fighting force of the triple aliflance by 400,000,000, which gives the triple entente 140,000,000 popula. tion in excess—which guarantees & fishting force twice as great. With F7400.000 committed to war there dous interference with 1 shortening of the the warring natio »d-producing London 000,000 loaves of of potatoes, 350,000 1,000,000 cabbages.

Owners of vacant lots are e to leasé them to tenants at regular| prices for garden purposes. The trees along many of the highways ~and country lenes are food bearing trees and the fruits cannot be plucked”ex- cept at certaln times by licensed in- divifluals, ' Yet Germany must depend on others for part of her sustenance and with Russla and Argentina cut out the food problem is a serlous one. How to keep provisioned is a di: turbing factor to both Germeny and England. If England and France can | clear the Atlantic ocean of German cruisers the food problem will cease to be a cause for worriment, but just at present the way to Russla and to all food-producing countries is men- aced by the enemy. The people who are best and most economically fed are the ones likely to win in this contest. CHASING GERMANY OFF THE SEAS, It was impossible for Germany to protect her interests in Africa or in China and she had to leave them weakly defended when she challenged the great nations of the triple entente to war. The conflict tS all intents ana purposes is an all-world contest and wherever there is a squadron of German cruisers they are being looked after—their foes are determined to sink them. Klau-Chau, the German protecto- rate, is valnable because it gives ac- cess to a large Chinese hinterland. It is a station for German commerce at the door of one of the potentially great markets. German trade with China has grown from almost noth- Ing to $43,000.000 a_vear, and is in- | creasing rapidly. This is small In | comparison with the $400,000,000 of annual_trade between Germany and Great Britain, but Germany needs a Chinese port for the use of its navy. even If it does not need it for fos- tering Its commerce. With the British and Russian war- ships in the east and the aid of the Japanese nmavy there is no question what will happen to the German ves- sels in those waters. With Russia having ports on the Sea of Japan ! it will not be diMcult for her to sup- | piy the force necessary to take Kiau- Chau, Buf if Germany wins she can re- cover all she has lost readily, and if she loses her condition at home will warrant no foreign dependencies, PINCHING THE PEOPLE. The speculator never dies, and if he ever misses an opportunity it passes t notice. The price of all tom- modities is going up in this country and Canada on account of the war, | | with | | | although as yet there is no shortage of crops or increased demands for | dairy or foodstuffs, The speculator has made an an- ticipatory move and the present ad- vgnces are wholly made upon “the prospects.” The speculator is squeez- ing the public in every country on earth because he thinks he can and is _permitted to. John Bull regards these food graft- ers as enemies of the country, who should be promptly taken care of like any other enemy. A fair profit is every man's due, but extortion is a crime in times of war or peace. The same policy Is being commend- ed in Canada and it would be good policy in the United States. Robbers of the people have too much license under the guise of bus- iness necessity, and as they delight in pinching the people the government might do them good by pinching them a little. | THE ANTICS OF THE EMOTIONAL The large cities of America and Canada have been the scene of par- tisan parades excited by the war spir- it in their native countries, with songs ang loud hu for the homeland. | These are weil-meaning people and they do not sense the danger that a little rowdvism or antagonism mas suddenly turn such an emotional mob into a riot—organized order suddenly | becomes organized disorder. There is really no reason in these manifesta- tions of feeling which so readily | change to rowdyism and to violense. Every citizen has a right to sym- pathize with any nation in its trou- bles he may choose, has a right to his private opinions and a right to be everything excepting an offensive citizen: Liberty always has to end | where defiance, insolence or violence begins. The lunacy 'of enthusiasm, the loud mouthings of the emotional, the bel- lowing of self-stvled patriots and the union of all the noisy and defiant classes is a menace to the peace and | well-being of any community and | should not be indulged in.

One of the most imposing and eventi- ful military trials that bas ever tak:n place was that of Francois Achilie Bazaine, the French marshal who was accused’ of having cowardly surrend- | ered his soldiers, 140,000 in number, to | the Germans, who made them prison- ers of war. At the moment of | surrender a week’s further resistance | would have enabled the levies. of the naticnal defense government to crush the weak forces of the Germans on | the Loire and to relieve Paris The responsibility for this crushing blow was naturally enough and justi enough placed on Bazaine's shoulders, | and, although when he returned from capiivity the marshal enjoyed brief immunity, he was in 1373, brought to trial before a military court. This trial was held in the palace of Trianon, at Versailles, idency of the duke d'Aumale. In the presence of his peers and surrounded | by the greatest names that France can show. this weather-beaten soldier standing at the very summit of French military_glory, arrayed in the full un- iform of the rank and wearing the | grand cross of the Legion of Honor was condemned to death on Dec. 10, 1873, and to be degraded from his rank previous to his execution When Bazaine surrendered Metz the French people at once raised the cry We are betraved:” And when the treaty of peace was signed Bazalne was_immediately placed under arrest on May 10, 1827. The preparation for his trial was commenced at once. More than 1,500 witnesses for the prosecu- ton were sworn in the preliminary ex- aminations, occupying _seventesn | months, or untll the 6th of October, 1873, when the trial proper opened at Versailles. From that time until his conviction the court had been in session alomst v._In the indictment read the Bazaine was charged with treachery to the arms of the country, in that he failed to relieve Gen.

On these charges he was found gullty notwithstanding that among those who came to his defense were ten gener- als of divisions, seven surgeons of the army and two priests. At the summing up Lachaud. who acted as counsel for Bazaine, said: "1 deeply sympathize with the valiant soldier who is so terribly accused. I fear not death for him. He is brave and fears nothing but loss of his honor for the sake of his wife and children. 1 feel most for France, which will de- | plore the loss of the valorous soldier. Your honors, patriotism forbids that You condemn him. M. Pourcet, who was prosecuting the case, said: “T demand that a terri- ble example be made as a lesson to the rising generations.” Before the judges withdrew Bazaine said: “I have two words in my breast—honor and coun- try’. "I have never been wanting to- ward this proud motto during forf ears of service. I swear befoe I have not betrayed! After a long deliberation the judges declared Bazaine gullty of the charges of the capitulation of Metz and his army in the open field without doing all that was in his power by honor and duty to aveld surrender and unani- mously condemned him to death, and to be degraded from his rank previous to his execution.
