g? REAL CAUSE OF THE WAR ;gfi
| e e e
Those who are studying the war
situation in Europe are coming to
the conclusion that no matter what
may have been the immediate cause
of the war, the chief issue of it now
is commercial domination of world
markets under political control. Two
facts justify this conclusion. One is
that Germany had been preparing for
war for a long time because she knew
that eventually she would have to
have a war with England if she
continued her policy of extending her
commerce and establishing colonies.
The other is that England, not being
well prepared for war, but meaning
to fight the foregoing issue to a set
tlement, bound Russia and France
by an agreement with her not to
accept peace unless all agreed to do
SO.
The war, therefore will be contin
ued until a decigive battle is fought
or one side or the other is exhausted.
Hence there is every reason to be
lieve that the war will be a long
one. The fighting thus far shows
that there is no reason to expect a!
decisive battle soon and there aroT
no signs yet on either side of ex-
Thaustion.
That President Wilson expects a
long war is evident from his refiusal
a day or two ago to join a number of
the neutral powers in a effort to
bring about peace. He saw no rea
son for thinking that such an offor
would be successful or even appre
ciated. To him it seemed that it
might be embarrassing, and hence
brusquely rejected.
And another reason for thinking
that world markets are the real issue
is the fact that Germany is dealing
with Belgium as if she intended to
keep not only Belgzium but also to
capture and hold a part of France,
the part that contains important
seaports. Germany wants Belgium’s
ports to enable her to better carry
out her policy of acquiring new mar
kets. That this is so is apparent
from the fact that the people of Hamn
burg didn’'t know whether or not to
rejoice over the capture of Antwerp.
They gloried in the success of the
arms of their country, -but they
realized that Germany meant to keep
Antwerp and that meant the loss of
wealth and importance by the port
of Hamburg.
Being a war for dominating in
fluence in Europe and for world
markets ig it bound to be fougiht
to a finish., The result of it will
grcatly ckhange the map of Europe,
no matter which side wins. If Ger
many and Austria-Hungary win,
Auestria will take territory for which
sue has long had a desire and Ger
many will take Belgium, perhaps
Holland and parts of France. If
the allies win Russia will extend her
borders by annexing some of the
territory of both Germany and Aus
tria and England or France may
get the German possessions in Africa.
‘However, the question of changes
that will take place in boundaries
or in ownership of colonies is as yet
a matter of speculation. But there
is no good reason to doubt that the
war will last for many months yet,
that the issue is one of commercial
domination and that the result of it
will be greatly to change the world’sl
map.—Savannah Morning News.

‘“Another Georgia town has voted
in favor of saloons, and here is the
reason given by a citizen:- ‘lf we

skirts and transparent skirts, and
our Yyounger women learning to
dance the boll weevil wiggle, the
Texas Tommy tango, the bunny hug,
the bear dance, the half center, the
buzzard flop and the puppy huddle,
and so on down the line, then the
