Firm connoted a bad Rai sinn is being rapidly dispelled and the task now before the en- lightened Rassion statesmen of to-day is to reconcile local liberty with Imperial Unity. The. purifying and healing influence of the new spirit in Russia cannot be limited to Poland. Finland and the Jews oзnct fail to profit by it. This war has been aptly described as a war of liberation for not only will the victory of the Allies literale Earope from the tyranny of militariem, liberate small nations from the oppression of neighbouring powers, and give also liberate Rassis from the thraldem of old prejudices and obsolete theories.

Meantime a channel 100% fest and 30 feet deep along the west bank the fall was from the east bank north of Gold Hill-WAS made, and ships were able to paRS* through again after a wait of ten daya. Twenty-two vessels werO waiting at the terminal points to 1230 through. An American newspaper very appositely rz• marks that the really important thing in these earth movements is not their occurrence, but the length of time during which shipping mast ba delayed until the fairway is again cle red. The statement is made that "at no stage of the construction of the cadal did engineers express the belief that when completed there would be ro elides. On the contrary, there were frequent announcements to too. effeos that just as at Snez it would be necas sary to maintain a fleet of dredg ers for some time to come, but that, unlike Suez, it would not be necessery to retain their services year after year indefinitely.

While we do not for an ins ant believe that such is the chief reason why Germany in at. war, nor believe that her coltore is in any respect superior to that attained by other European nations we believe that it may be not anprofitable to consider upon what the Teutons base their claim. to such distinction.

No one will deny that Germany ia a highly cultured nation, that her educational system is admirable, her achieve- mede in all that makes for a high civikaation very considerable.
