Judging from press reports' the Italian people are getting so imbued with the war spirit that nothing else will serve them but to fight and most likely if the nation does not fight Austria there will be war at home. General French, commander in-chief of the K nglish forces, is calling for an additional army of 300,000 men, and the end of the strife seems no nerrerthan it was when the war first began. Just now the world is await ing the reply of the Imperial German government to IVsi dent Wilson's note, and wonder i"g l"t the answer will be whether it will make for peace or not. The IIkkaU) hopes that H will bo for peace; but we are not blind to the fact that the spirit of unresf is world-wide and that lawless acts of those already embroiled in the great strife now going on in the East ern continent may draw this country and others into the strife Nations engaged in war be- come as it were drunken on blood. Their individual hatred for each other and their intense desire to avenge themselves up on their enemies takes away those finer qualities of character that pertain to civilized and humane life, and makes demons of what were once kind, reason ing, human beings. This con dition seems to be growing in me huropean war, and as the struggle is, perhaps, in its i. fancy yet, there is no guessing what it tiiay yet produce before peace settles down over the world.

The closing month of the year found Russia sobering up under the workings of a na-tion-wide Prohibition edict is sued by the Cm. Old King AI- conoi had the shock pf his life. The metropolitan newspapers were compelled to put out bi neaunnes and the world looked on in amazement. David Lloyd George, Chancellor of the Ex chequer, spoke right out in mem ig in the following utterance: We are fighting Germany, Aus tria and drink, and so far as I can see the greatest of these dead ly foes is drink. I have a grow i"g conviction, based on accu mulating evidence, that nntl,;,,.. I ' "VHUll but root-and-branch methods would be of the slightest avail in dealing with the evil. I believe H is the general feeling that if India are on the water wagon. France has stopped the sale of absinthe, and, according to the German newspapers, the German Federal Council passed an order strengthening the regulations re garding the sale of liquor in Ger many. The order permits the central authorities of each state at their discretion to limit or prohibit the sale of spirits. Any violation of such Prohibition is punishable bv a fine of 12,500. or imprisonment for a year. This puts a visible crimp in the busi ness, even in Germany, that has heretofore been considered in vincible. General Villa has concluded to make Mexico dry. The Gen eral says liquor hampers his peo ple. In a personal statement he gave out the statement a few lays ago, that with pence he will make Mexico a dry country. "Mexico will be without liquor when peace comes if it is within my power," he said. "My coun try is now suffering from the liquor traffic. The children of the poor in my country are the greatest sufferers. The Presi. dent of the nation may not be a drinking man himself, but if he permits his people to indulge in mis poison, he is showing him- self a weakling. I ,o t ,,er.
