T. Mason. United Press War Expert.) ! New York,' Oct. 24. President Wil son has tied Prince Max hand and foot and passed him over to Marshal Foch for judgment. ' The new German chancellor, put into office iy . the kaiser, to challenge America to a peace offensive, hag been an lgnomini- ously defeated by the pen as Von Mm denburg hag by the sword. Attempting to over-match President Wilson at note writing has proven a costly failure. The German government now stands revealed before the German people as unable to negotiate a peace that can save any part of Germany's nilitary machine. An understanding of this fact is ab solutely necessary on the part of the German people before a safe peace is possible. The American answer to Princo Maxmilian means the German nation must itself become civilization's hostage for righting the wrong that Germany ha9 done to humanity. This iB the basic result of the epistolary ex changes botweon Berlin And Wash ington. The German nation's responsibility for the acta of its autocrats i thus fixed. That is why Germany will not be permitted to enter a peace confer ence until Marshal Foeh and the allies' naval advisers have imposed conditions mat win aiirer in no respect ironi un conditional surrender. Tho only way tho German people can save any part of the wreck of their fortunes is by overthrowing kaisorism of thoir own will and power, To the present there has been -no democratic movement in Germany because the ten tativo rforois have been staged by the kaiser from above and have not been made secure by popular uprisings. In stead of demanding their full demo cratic prorogativos, tho German people are' waiting to take as few rights as tho kaiser thinks safe to give them in the interests of saving the Hoken- zollcrn dynasty. .. No democracy was ever permanently founded on voluntary gifts of froodoin from an absolutist monarch. If . tho people themselves do not make secure their charter of human rights by their own majestic might, they may lose over night what they have not. participated in. creating. ... v ,,. Si nee, under any condition of peace, the German nation must first disarm, there will be better termg if the disarm ing is done by a self-democratized na tion. The longor the process ' takes, how evor, the more drastic will bo the p conditions: The kind of peace the American people intend to demand will depend on the extent of the sacrifices they are called upon to endure. The attitudo of the American de mocracy during the period of note writing by Prince Maxmilian demon strates beyond doubt that if Germany tries to fight it out to the end, it will be .the end of Germany. t MANY PRISONERS (Continued from page one) looked for south of Valenciennes, thene are no signs bo far of any great de fensive preparations Ibeyond slender, wsw trench and wiro systems. The Germans are retiring largely up on the strong, natural positions behind the canal and the Kaismes forest and the tlooded area between Douai and Valenciennes. ; During the past four days the Ger mans have withdrawn about three kilo meters (two miles) every night, after holding on all day, the British at day break occupying the abandoned ground and resuming their pressaje. An example of the forces preying on the minds of the German troops is found in a letter which, a captured iprivato recoived from his brother in Hamburg written October 12. The letJ ter reiterates five times that peace is certain within a few days and urges ;ho soldier to surrender or avoid death How To Address Letters To Soldiers Just to makcit clear as to how let ters should bc addressed to soldiers, the following form is shown. This sample address is sent but by the Washington postal officials and approved by army authorities. Here is the form for the address and also tha return address: .- From Mrs. John Doe, i - ' i79 Eoe Street, Salem, Oregon. Sergeant John K. Doej . Co. D, 93d Infantry, . i. .

French and Italian troops, in a powerful local attack on the Sette Comniuni plateau last night, penetrated far into he enemy lines, capturing tie important peak of Mont Sisemol, the (Italian war office an nounced today. Twenty three ofneors and 70 men were made prisoner. -.. i .British, .troops stormed Austrian trenches south of Asingo, taking 214 prisoners. south of the Assa ndgo and north of Mont Di Val Bella, Italian patrols took 100 prisoners and four machine guns. AMERICANS FORCE . Continued from, page one) now more than thirty German divis ions opposing the ..Americans on this front. Reports have been received indicat ing that the German artillery fire on tho entiro front has reached ahe lowest mark since the first fw mouths of the war. British, I'rench and Ameri cans declare there is a remarkable pre ponderance of rifle and hiaehino guns over shell wounds. Tho former injuries are light in the majority of cases and permit an early return of the casual ties to the line. ' On the other hand, the bodies are suffering 1 heavily from allied artil lery fire and their losses greatly ex icced those of tho allies, despite dhe enemy's normal advantago of defens ive fighting. These conditions, coupl ed with their lowering morulo, which is inevitable in View of .their peace drive, add to the explanations of thw uernian desire for au armistice. SUNSHINE Aira AIR BATTLES - .

No matter what its previous course, it seonis also to be true that any newspaper can attain a following which boliovos implicitly anything it may publish. , . Horo are elements sufficient to create kaisc-r or czar out of any newspaper of large circulation in Oregon which may elect to devote them to its own ends, of evory county for matcriul that may bo twist ed into an argument in favor of its position. It is devoting space that no other lawgiver would bo permitted to use at any price. It is searching out tliosa persons who boliove it, or fear it or merely rejoico in notoriety to inter view in behalf of its policy. While bill would do.
