From the In structions issued by the Bolshevik) to their representatives sent to con clude an armistice with the Ger mans, to the speech of Lloyd George before the British parliament the whole gamut of possible condi tions precedent to the conclusion of peace, are voiced: It is well for Americans, that Is the average stay-at-home civilians, to get the fact dearly impressed up on their understandings, that any peace which does not destroy, for all time, the war making abilities of the present regime In Germany and add thereto such other provisions as will make future wars well nigh impossible, would be a peace In which America and her allies Would tw losers. As President Wilson well said in his recent message to con grees: "We shall regard the war as won only when the German people say to us, through properly accredited rep resentatives, that they are ready to agree' to a settlement ' based upon justice and the reparation of the wrongs their rulers have done. - "When this intolerable thing, this German power, Is, .indeed, deefated and the time come that we can dis ut peace-7-when the German peo ple have spokesmen whose words we can believe and when those spokes men !are ready in the name of their people to' accept the common judg ment of the nations as to what shall henceforth be the basis of law and of covenant for the life of the' world -we shall" be willing and glad to pay the. full, price for peace." This war has developed into ' a struggle to rid the world of German war-maniacs. Scores of nations have been forced' into' the conflict as a matter of self preservation. There can be no real liberty anywhere un til HohenzolleWlsm baa been crush ed and the German people awakened from their national hypnosis. If a farmer has suffered raids up on his aheepfold by a grey wolf; had gone after the maruader with a rifle and had driven him into a cave over the mouth of which he stood guard, would he consider the task done If he returned home leaving the wolf living to make further' raids? ; Germany has entered upon a course of brigandage. A posse of nations has been formed to put an end to her depredations. The posse has surrounded .the robber who Is fighting most ' desperately. What kind of a peace would It be to allow that robber such a future as would almost Insure a repetition of its crimes? ,. 1 Now that the German war lord sees that be cannot accomplish what he set out to' do, and for which, for 50 years be had builded the great est fighting machine of history, he Is willing to talk of compromise peace terms. There ean be no compromise In a struggle which Involves life and death to democracy and real human liberty. ' ' j.'
