It was only a question long Servia could hold in much superior forces that against it from three direc- Outdone in every particular advantages furnished by the of the country and the send- ing of adequate assistance by the al- Hies. They have made the most of the first two and while the allies have failed to get ah army of sufficient size into the Balkans to stop the invaders 1t has not been because their sympathy. d1d not lie in that direction. The con- ditions ‘under which they have been bliged to organize that campaign have _ resulted to the advantage of the cen- iral powers and while the sucdess of the latter has given them temporary vantage and an opening through ~ Setvia to Bulgaria and Turkey the-end the operations in that war theater i by no means assured. _ The entente allies operating under nfeges which were not antici- pe are brought thereby face to face with greater difficulties, including the Jmportant one of driving out the in- Vaders, much the same as still con- fronts them in Belglum and Northern France, but their part in the Balkan fight still remains to be played. Th ‘falt of Nish means that the Servians are steadily belng driven back and the " forward movement of the Teutons _will have to be continued to give proper protection to the gains which have been made, but the part which the allies are going to play remains to be seen and it is probable that Barl Kitchener's departure for that région has much to do therewith, BOMB PLACERS: “The putting into Halifax of the frelghter Rio Lages with a fierce fire raging In its cargo of sugar and the statement . by its captain that 1t was unquestionably started by bombs placed while the vessel was being loaded, reveals the second imstance where a determined effort has been made to destroy vessels and cargo des- tined for the.allles without regard for the lives of the crew. The other in- stance was that of the ship Buterpe being loaded at Brooklyh with a sim- _ ilar cargo although in that case the fire broke out in a number of places before the vessel ‘was ready to depart. In each instance, however, while the vessels were subject to sefzure and destruction by the enemy under pre- scribed conditions, no effort o re- spect the rules of war was made and ~ what is worse, the actual work of s m‘ the bombs which were re- upon to start such fires that they would destroy vessel and cargo was done in this country. Thus it is evident, desite such pre- cautions as maxy steamship lines have found it necessary to take, that the plotters are either clever emough to overcome the vigilance of the watchers or_else they are rot being given the attention which is warranted by their determination to destroy regardless of ~ the method pursued or the conse- Quences which may follow. Inasmuch as these cases have oc- curred following the arrest of a band of plotters whose purpose was vir. tually the same, it is disclosed that _ conditions bave been revealed which ‘mean that the authorities of this coun- e s § 43% g sets ] £ slight ana that he intends to carry on the war. That his army was unsuccesstul in that border engagement is perhaps the poorest of any reason for giving|the fra up the striggle if such a decision had been reached, for even though some influence must have been exerted up- on that fight by the attitude taken by this government in inststing that shots must not be fired acrossed the line, it is probable that a still stronger in- fluence was wielded by this country when it placed an embargo upon sup- plies destined for the support of Vil la’s army. Without munitions of. war to carry on an organized revolution therg cén be little hope for success. 'The order places a tremendous handicap upon Villa and provides a decided advantage for the government forces of Mexico under Carranza as shown by the state- ment that the retreating army was made “up of men who were hungty, thirsty and poorly equipped. Thus it is believed that the embargo is going to furnish the. greatest embarrass- ment to Villa and that it will eventu- ally-end in the demoralization of his torces. — e BRYAN WOULD USE TALK In view of the previous attitude of William Jennings Bryan it is not surprising that he is now found open- Iy and strongly opposing the president on the question of adequite preparation for the defense or the country against a foreign invader. It was upon a similar matter that he broke with the administration and resigned from the cabinet. Then, in- stead of standing up manfylly far the protection of American rights he was for dallying, writing notes and doing most anything in fact execept con- veying to Germany the fact that this country did not intend to be imposed upon. It is apparently the same idea which he holds at the present time ev~ en though had it been adhered to the discreditable submarine polley would Pprobably be in effect now. | From all indications Mr. Bryan is convinced that this country needs no more preparation than it has been making under the democratic ideas. He would continue to spend vast sums for the filling of the “pork barrel” and the building up of patronage but he would let the defense of the nation slide until some foe was approaching our shores and then engage in & wild scramble to talic them out of their in- tentions or to attempt after it was too late to make up for negligence. Peace is an admirable thing to champion but it has been shown how much can be expected under such a banner from the war in which treaties have been declared scraps of paper. The safer course 1s to insure it through such de- fense measures as will caiise us to be respected and provide us with sen- sible preparation against the uncer- tainty of promises. t EDITORIAL NOTES. The King of Greece is beginning to realize what it means to wear a crown. It takes the weatherman to provide the tonic for building up the appetite of the furnace. The man on the corner says: Most of the advice we get isn't the kind we are looking for.

With the afproach of Thanksgiving many are already turning = their thoughts to early Christmas shopping. Albania is said to be in partial re- volt but the chances are that ‘Al- bania was given away some time ago. It would appear to be about time for Germany to impose war taxes upon those recently captured Servian cities. Those who are talking against paredness would probably be the to hike to Canada in case of & threat~ ened attack upen the country.
