END APPARENTLY IN SIGHT

Allies Are Slowly Driving the Germans Before Them. It is quite evident that Germany is seeing the beginning of the end of the great European war which has now been raging for two years and eight months, and the end means the entire defeat of the German forces and its allies. The British forces and its allies are * steadily driving back the Germans and Austrians while the Russians are' pressing back the fleeing Turks at all points. Germany’s attitude in its submarine war, its utter destruction of the country in its line of retreat, rendering it a perfect wilderness, has forfeited the respect of the civilized world, and it can hope for little or no quarter from its foes when the extreme end. of its rope is reached. It is probable there will be no German empire after this war is ended.
