A logical view is that re verses in the field together with starvation from the block ade may before many month: bring about the abdication of the kaiser and the establish ment-of a republic in Germany The allies would treat more liberally with a Teutonic re public than they will treat with the Hohenzollerins. Another view of the situa tion is that the imperial gov ernment may see that defeat is certain for them and tthat they deliberately invoked war with America so as to nave tne credit of surrendering to world-wide foe. If this version is well founded an early peace may be expected.

At least they did. not want war so long as it could be avoided with honor and safe ty. But that does not convict them of having been either un patriotic or cowardly. The East Oregoman is not surprised in the least to find pacifists turning out generally to be thoroughly loyal citizens. This very development was to be expected and it is being realized. Henry Ford,, a lead ing pacifist, Jong ago promised his ereat factory to the use of the government if. it should be needed. Mr. Bryan, so much abused for his peace views, shows himself a true patriot by volunteering his services as a private, offering to undertake any class of work desired of him by the government. Col. Roosevelt on the other hand seems very particular about the class of service he shall render. He insists that he be marln a hrfe-adier treneral at Taere is a patient heart that. once and be allowed to lead a .u'The cf. rested divisionpost haste to France a ! T .
