XaJTICE TO IUBSCR1BERS. If you fail to receive your copy of Tkc TtMKS promptly as you have la the past, please do not think It has ben lost t was not sent on time. Remember that the railroads are eagaged with the urgent movement '. troops and their gupplle; that there Is unusua! pressure In various parts el the country for food and fuel; that the railroads hare more business than they can handle promptly. For that reason many trains are late. Thi Times has Increased its mailing equipment and Is cooperating in every way with the vostofSce department to expedite delivery. Even eo. delays are lnvltab.e because of the enormous demands upon the railroads and Utt wttiidrawsj of men from many lines of work.
Other cereals are dropping; so are provisions. The farmer Is the first to feel the effects of the peace that is to come ill (he not distant future, says the Lafayette Journal. But labor will likewise bo made subject to changed conditions with a rapidity that will be startling, once peace is assured. Wi:h the demand gone for munitions and a thousand and one things which armies consume in vast quantities, thousands of laborers who are now commanding big money will bo compelled to turn to th industrial field, which must be developed at the expenditure oi" considerable time before the demand for labor will be large. And peace time industrial conditions will not permit inch expenditures as have prevailed in the United States for the past three o.irs. Hundreds of thousands of men will be released from mobilization camp.- and will co trooping home seck'n? employment. Later, millions of mm will return from abroad, nil of v,-:io;n musi he fitted into the lif ,-f a p.-.u'o time nation. The competition for employment will iv keen anil any one who is foolish enough to think for a m-nu e that waees and price.- frem-raily are not .soin., dov. a ;.h a crush is due for a rude awakening. The farmer is the first to be hit because his products .ire first affected and there is no compensating rcduc tien in the price of the things which he must buy. Hut the period of readjustment is approaching rapidly and we shall be criminally careless if w do not make some preparation for it.

The United States Demands an Unconditional Surrender.
STOP THE NOTES AND THE PARLEYS. Fertiaps never in the history of mankind has it been put up to one man to make so momentous a decision as President "Wilson is confronted with today. We believe that Germany, knowing' herself defeated. Tier line crumbling, Bulgaria' capitulated. Austria and
Turkey facing defection, fighting for existence to the last j
casp, has erected a camouflage of political democratization. Surely the president must see this. He must, know ihat if he begins an interchange of notes with Germany for peace negotiations he will be worsted by the tricky and lying Hun. There should have been only one answer to Germany; there should be one answer only today and that answer should be "unconditional surrender." There should he no parleying with the Hun in any shape! manner or form until he throws up his hands. If only for the memory of those gallant American ftoys whose blood has been spilled in France, there should be no dickering with the spawn of satan. If we dicker with Germany while Germany is fighting In conquered territory with German soil inviolate, we dicker to our shame. Even Wilson's fourteen peace terms are not sufficient. Germany should be forced to give restitution and reparation for the foul Injury she has done. Cannot Washington see that every note that goes to Berlin and every note that comes from Berlin weakens the fighting morale of the American people. It is wrecking the fourth Liberty loan, which is what the foxy Hun wants. It leads to argument and discussion and dissension and the first thing the people know there will be a lack of unity among the allies. That's what Germany wants. When that happens she will have won the war.
There is a great fight on between the forces of j
1 leaven and tne torces of Hell turned loose lour jears ago by Germany. Are we going to handy words with the forces of Hell? Not outside of Berlin, not unless Satan and hii crew are in sackcloth and ashes. Justice to the men who have died on the battlefield; justice to the millions and the tens of millions of broken hearts, broken because of Germany's accursed war; Justice to the womanhood dishonored as never before in human history; justice to the mended children; justice to all the civilization of the future if civilization is to be a reality, demands that the unceasing cry should go throughout this land that until th1 armies of America and the allies march millions strong down the streets of Berlin and Vienna and Constantinople there should be no word of peace. T? do less than this would be a reflection upon all that we term justice and would be criminal weakness instead of justice. ON TO BKRLLV AND UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER OF THE ASSASSINS, THE MURDERERS.

BULGAR PREMIER ALWAYS ANTI-GERMAN. What is taking place in Bulgaria today might safely have been prophesied months ago. The material lay open in tli files of the Sofia Proporet?. the personal organ of Prime Minister Malinoff. He became premier a! the end of June. Editorials written by him during th preceding weeks show that he was thoroughly anti-German, and that when the tim came he would act accord ingly. At times his outspokenness is remarkable. When Germany settled the affairs of prostrate Rou mania in her own way, at the treaty of Bucharest. Malin oft sounded ,a warning. "Bulgaria has not benefited at all," he wrote on June 4, "and what is hers by right has been taken from her. We do not doubt our own fuiure. But we douht what :he future of allies will be with us.'" A few days later he wrote: "The assertion That the question of the Dobrudja will be settled after the conclusion of peace cannot warm any Bulgarian heart. On the contrary, it reduces to dust the projects of Germany in southeastern Europe." This was sufficient iy plain. But. the next day he went still farther. He felt that Germany was virtually helping Turkey to take Bulgarian territory. And he said: "One who extorts cannot be an ally. If Bulgaria must seek an understanding with Turkey, she may have to enter into direct negotiations, which may have a result quite the opposite to what the allies, Germany and Austria, expect." After Malinoff became premier, the Vossiche Zeitung sent a correspondent to interview him, and the correspondent reported him as saying, somewhat cryptically, that "many of the mistakes of the late government were closely connected with Germany." In the course of the same week, a paragraph appeared in the Preporctz which spoke of certain "blackmailers, thieves and imposters" (identity unspecified) "who are the greatest enemies of our country, much more dangerous than the enemy in rrr.s against us." Apparently the Vossiche Zeitung had thought: "Could he possibly mean us?" At any rate, it announced that it would withhold its opinion as to the real attitude of Malinoff toward Germany until he made it plainer by his actions. It should be sufficiently plain by now.

PUBLIC OPINION.
WITH PEACE WAGES AND PRICES DROP. If there is anyone who entertains the idea that the enormous prices that have prevailed for labor and farm snd factory products during the war period, are going to continue when the war ends they have hut to consult the market pages from day to day to ascertain what even the possibility of peace is doing to farm products. It was not so long ago that corn was quoted at. $2 "o a bushel. The price today is less than half of that
There are slackers and slackers. Slackers from Liberty loans, slackers from the army in the field, slackers from the army of labor. The "work or fight" order scared the slackers for a minute, but not. for long. The United States Employment Service Bulletin, issued by the Department of Labor, has discovered men working at jobs women might be holding. We refer to able bodied men must needed in essential occupations and dodging responsibility. If we can hae shells enough in France next year we can blast a path to Berlin. To the extent that we fall behind in the supply of material we shall have to make up (he deficit from the living bodies of young men. Tins is not rhetoric. It is cold, precise, military calculation. It is the idea of the department to have women workers shame men who evade essential work. The United States Employment Service will "announce work where women can replace men, and public opinion is expected to do the rest." This won't do. Fublic opinion never yet drove loafers or slackers in any appreciable numbers to work or ficht, and never will. The United States government must lF.ue Its orders and have them obeyed. Public opinion revolts at mistrials of important federal cases; at failures to punish corruption and profiteering, jail cheap politicians selling exemptions and Intern alien enemies daily mocking at our boys abroad and their relatives at home, but, a'as, public opinion cannot change these discouraging things. Public opinion cannot take the place of governmental enforcement of just orders.

Above all things, remember that the president has not yet replied to the German note hut has instead addressed certain questions to Berlin. Until the reply to those questions is received, Mr. Wilson withholds sny statement he may have to make. In such circumstances there is naturally nothing to be said. The president asks that the German request shall be stated in language concerning which there can be no misconception, and he awaits the reply of Berlin to that demand.
