It 16 a venous matter to the student, dm the middle ot the term, to lots the Instructors upon whom In bad relied. In the national view, too, it looks like rather small business to persecute these mem who happened to be born in Gertuamy and who mods such good use of their time that they are today e minent in their profession. The reams k has been made that 11 they were English ptufeeson in Germany they would fare badly, as probable would be the case. But if we are to adopt Germain methods there is no us' in having the war. The great struggle is for the triumph of justice and tart ply. Anyway, as we started out to my, Toronto is having its little ezcite- ment. THURSDAY. DECEMBER 10, 1914 HOW LONG WILL THE WAN LAST?) In the report of au interview with Lord Kitchener by Irvin S. Cobb lo The Setur'dey Evening Post, the War Chief is credited with the statement that the war will lest until Germany is thoroughly deteated on land and on sea. and that this will piobably require at least thtee yea.-perhipe a longer period. Mr. Asquith at the Guildhall cn Lord Mayors Day said, "This las going to be a long-dntwn struggle." "We shall never sheath the sword which we have not lightly drawn until Belgium recovers in full measure all and more than all that she has sacri- ficed. uotil France is adequately secured against the menace of aggres- sion, unfit the rights of the reseller nationalities of Europe are placed upon an unassailable fottndatinn, and until the military dcmination of Prus- sia is wholly end finally destroyed. That is * great task woi thy of a great nation."• Which is its it the PreMier and the Secretary of War said : "We are go- ing to makes good job of it. The war will lart until we get the joh done." WAR 1N TORONTO. Toronto wu.•t have its little sensa- tion. For a week or ten days its wak- ing hours were filled with thoughts of Sam Hughes and his unruly Member But Premier Borden came along and made some nice speeches in which he complifueoted " the Home' Guard, praised General Lessard and had a good word all round for these things that bad eons uoder the displeasure of the Minister of Militia. 8o the wounds resulting from the Hughes visitation were salve(. In the meantime, however, a greaser horror hal developed. It had been discovered that thete were some Ger- man professors on the staff of the Univeri.itT of Toronto. It was not charged that they were disciples of militant Germanism, nor that they were dropping poison in the wells of thought at which the students driok, nor that they were in any way con- ducting themselves unworthily. They were just Germans and that was enough. One at least of the throe was known to be a pronouno.d - soli - militarist, but that didn't make any difference. A hue and cry was raised. and • demand was made for their dis- misasl. ['resident Falconer flatly re- fused, declaring that he saw no reason for such action. and that British fair play should be accorded the profee- sors. A meeting of the University board of governors was held and after a pro- longed dis.:uasiou they voted ten to four against taking such measures as would have led to the resignation of the President and others ot the Uni- versity staff. The compromise cones. was adopted of giving the German professors "leave of absence," with (salary, and later it was planned to se - Mao an exchange with United states t#lvereit is so that the work of In- struction at Toronto might go on. Th. board's decision, however, did not quiet the outcry, and it was even threatened t hat if the professors. in pursuance of the plan of exchange, should attempt to leave the country they would be arrested, and President Falconer, too. would be Ilatole to ar- t for aiding them in the attempt. lilt Edmund Osier, one of the minority of tour on the board of governor', re- wigwed his seat as • protest easiest She action of the majority.

That "holy war" has not 'even- tuated, but our Indian troops at the battlefront are proving themselves "holy terrors" to the Germans. In an address at Woodstock on Saturday Mr. Rowell offered to Pre- mier Hearst him co-operation in • non - pert isan policy of removing the evil+ lot the liquor traffic. It was written last week, "A news- paper is to a large extent • reflection of the community in which it is pub- lished," but the compositor changed • of" to "on," the result illustrating how much difference one little letter can make. The war progresses _satisfactorily. ID the east a fierce struggle is taking place between the Russians and the Germans, while in Belgium and Northern France the allied armies are making distinct advances. Britain con- tinues to rule the waves. It is suggested that persons writing to the soldiers at the front should en- close a blank sheet of paper and a self-addressed envelope. This would tend to ensure a more prompt reply, as paper and envelope's are not always to he found in the soldier's kit. Soule excited people in Toronto who insisted upon having the German pro- fessore brought up on the carpet now tbresten to have the professors ar- rested if they attempt to leave the country. The professors are -not the only Getman' in Toronto, apparently The Toronto Telegram remarks that "the leaders of University life should embody the highest ideals of deer thinking and accurate reasoning." But. goodness gracious, they have to male some effort once in a while to come down to a level on which they can roach The Telegram and its kind. The private charter for the proposed Georgian Bay canal is not to be re- newed, 'aye a newspaper despatch from Ottawa. Now if the Govern- ment will decide that millions of Can- ada's good money are not to be thrown away in carrying out the Filo- Joel. it will be still better news for the taxpayers. it is computed that Canada has sent to the relief of the Belgian people food and goods to the value of almost one million dollars. As there are sev- eral millions of Belgians to be cared for during the winter, relief efforta should not be slackened bemuse so much hes already been done. The need is still very great. The Toronto New. and The London Free Press seem to be the leading ex- ponents of German methods in this Province. The pet -slier spirit which condones lying and misrepresentation. firing on flags of truce and other breaches of the common Lode is in full favor in the offices of these journals, judging by the way in which they are conducted. editorially, at the present lithe. Premier Flemming of New Bruns- wick• recently found guilty by a Royal Commission of milking a Gov- ernment contract, has been nominated as a Conservative candidate for the next election to the Federal Moor.

This war is fundamentally a con- flict between two Ideas that are striv- ing to dominate the world. That does not mean that it ie a struggle to set- tle which type of civilization is going to prevai!. For in that ease it would simply be reduced to a combat be- tween two world poet re, one seeking to retain suptetuac and the other to replace it. Were that all there would be too such tallying to the support of the allies on the part of the weaker neti malities as this oar has already provoked. One or two have been held back because they fear and dread the possibility of German victory, and are providing for that possibility. But in their heart of hearts every liberty - loving people are praying that success may attend the allied at ms. That instinctive idea is a cowpeuiog tribute to the Briti,h Empire as it ex- ists in the twentieth century. In earlier days it grew through conquest, just Se t•ruuia did. But the Briton abroad, just as the Briton at home, carried ever with,n himself the prin- ciple of free self-government. He fought for it and died for it, and through his individual devotion inde- pendent states have arisen, outside and inside the Empire, but'each carry- ing un the old Briti,lt tradition. Prus- sian militarists want to impose their notions on the world, and think they can do it through the might of the sword. British statesmen have learned that freedom is the root of loyalty. Had the British Empire rested on com- pulsion it would nit be the %mit it is today. Assistance spontaneou,lygiven, even from native races supposed to be peculiarly open to incentives to rebel- lion, is a wegoificent tribute to the work done by the civil servants of the motherland.
