trend of the fighting.
A logical view is that re

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.
PACIFISTS NO LONGER

It is not strange at alL Nine
tenths the people of the coun
try were pacifists to some de
gree. 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
