The secretary of war does not hesi- tate to say that the married relation will in itself constitute a deferred class, The voungest men, or those below 21 are also to be placed in the de-| ferred elass. - The men who are sure to be in the first class are bachelors, and many of them will accept their fate with glee, as not worse than being handicapped and harassed by family affairs; and it must be said for them that man are patriotically eager to assume their full duty as citizens and prepare to face the enemy of mankind. It is expected the law will malke more than ten miliion men alle far military service: and shonld neecessity require it five million be drawn This great manifestation of force saver for the na- MILLIONS OF TONS SHJRT. With the hard coal 190 million tons short, and the s=oft coal 15 millions behind the supply, there is no doubt that the greatest. economy will be necegsary the coming winter, The foreign demand and the war demand for coal is intanse and con- stantly increasi The great In- crease in A»mand is for the navy and the war supply industries, which are run and must ds supp!

When the Germans come aware of the basc purposes of the war and its indefonwible character they will be awakened to the deception and wick- cl@ness which is the cause of their eondition today. This dectrine of foreign hatred for Germans, tbat the men of all nations ~ were ememies of Germany, is one of the blackest iies ever imposed upon a trave and industrious nation, - The pecple of Germany under pres- ent reverses are reviewing the disap- " polntments and broken promises of the past few years, and the progress of demecratic ideas is being accele- rated. “Whatever may be the wgtcome of the. war” says the Freie Zeitung of - Bern (a German Republican paper), «: “the republ can idea in, Germeny will 'T ineresse in strength.

' We German repubu- cans subseribe thankfully and w satistaction to the words of the Bashs National Zeitung, one of the few neu- tral German-Swiss papers when it says that after the war “the madman of today will be considered wise, ahd the wise men of today as ‘pathologi- cal’ ™ THE DRIVE THAT FAILED. The Hindenburg drive was launched in March to force peace accompanied by the Junkers’ promise that‘Gen.

"We are nearing September ist and von Hindenburg is not only four months late, but is really farther away from Paris than ever af ing lost from three to four thousand men and millions of dollars} worth of material. The German people know that their army has failed; and they alsc know the promises of peace have no foun- dation whatever. The effect of this m litary fallure in Berlin is told in two sentences in the Berlin Tageblatt: “The Marne de- feat has produced unspeakablg scenes of despair in Berlin. Such outhreaks | of utter discouragement and down- heartedness never before were Wit~ nessed.” The old Russian war clond suming such proportions that Ber- lin sees conflict instead of peace in that direction; and a broadening de-| mand for man-power which 1t cannozl command. \ The beginning of the end appears to be in sight. is as- A NEW ATTITUDE REQUIRED. From patriotic motives organized labor and organized business men have agreed to have ng "overnmem weakening quarrels durinz the war; and both are apparently trying mrdI to honor their pledgey.
