THE WAR STRIATION
The retreat of the Germans from the
Marne still continues but the resist-
ance along the banks of the Aisne
and Vesle rivers to which the Getmans
have been driven, is growing more
stubborn. The rapid advance made
by the Allies earlier in the week has
become much slewer, but an advance
is still being steadily miintained. .The
slow -down in the adVance has not on-
ly been owing to the fresh show of
enemy resistance, but from the ne-
cessity of getting the guns and sup-
plies again in position, behind the
advancing bafantry. This latter work
has been greatly hampered by -a. week
of rain. the limestone nature -of the
ground has been churned up, by the
heavy guns and motor lorries, until
the roads have became all but im-
passable. As yet it is not known.
where the dermans will make their
stand hut it is not believed that they
will,make a definite halt before the
Aisne is reached.
Each day adds to the booty captur-
ed by the Allies, but it will.be im-
possible for some time to take full
stock of the material. captured, but
the booty includes several million.
rohnds of Artillery end other ammuni-
tion, several thousand mathine guns
and over thousand cannon. Besides'
these 40,000 prisoners have befit tak-
en end over DP towns and villages
have been ',recaptured. Among the for,
mer is the city of Soissons, which has
leng 'been a Germ= military store-
house. Since the German Crown
Prince began his retreat his armies
have fallen back twenty miles and
there are good prospects thit he will
have to abandon all the ground over-
run since the German offensive started
on May e7tn. The war, hovvever, is
not yet won, and exaggerated hopes
towards this e7c1 should not be raised
by the German retreat. On the other
hand we have the cheering Asurance
that a supreme German 'effort has
been over -borne by the Allies aided
by- the rapidly increasing American
Army, and that at no time since the
.first battle of the Marne in the first
year of the war, haa the military sit-
uation appeared as favorable to us as
it does to -day.
Another German atm:city was eoa\n-
/tided on the high seas on Saturday,
when the Brjtish Amliulance transport
Warilda, on its way from France to a
British port with wounded Men, was
torpedoed and sunk by- a submarine
and 123 out of the 750 on board per-
ished. .The ship was nearing home
from France when she was struck in
the engine -room, destroying the dyne.
amos and plunging the vessel into
darkness. More than 100 patients
were in the wardroom directly over
the engine -room. and mast of these
were killed outright by'the eXplosion
aad others uninjured were trapped and
perished, except for a few whG jump-
ed overboard and were picked up: Im-
mediately after the explosion five
boats were launched, but bfore they
could br cleared, they Were smashed
and many of • their occupants were
drowned. The ship carried 600 sick
and v:ounded, and there were on board
89 nurses and the loss of the boat
is one of the most harrowing disasters
in the history of submarine warfare.

The best we can say for our rederal,
Cabinet is that it is about (the finest
little crowd of entertainers and eaters
that we have ever experiened.1 Food,
entertainment and foreign tom% are
their specialty. What matters it if
our .Ministers left an asSortinent of
half-baked legislation en the 'Statute
bookse or failed to keep theie word
with the post -office nmployees, so long
as they eau sit close to England's and
France's great men and hear the 'tric-
kle of soft Words? What boets 'it if
we freeze to death next winter owing
to the Ihek .of foresight in,not inaking
the fuel question a matteeon, national
importance, so long as our Ministers
like live stock at the fall -fair ,
One heltiven to wondering 'what
wmild .have happened in the United
ed Borden's example. Suppose for a
moment he had closed up the Capitol
and shut up the White Hogan and
started off to tour, Europe, there to
pick inalittle grains of comfort in the
way of sweet nothing& poured into his
ears. Vel;,, if. he had, .there is one
thing certain, the United, States would
not haye been in the war with both
feet as. is now the case. And by the
game token, if Lloyd George had ad-•
mired himself to the extent of spend-
ing all, his time in. Paris, being gazed
on and applauded by the populace, in
place of staying on the job in London;
it is fair to predict that England
would have found a new Prime Minis-
ter somewhere, difficult as the task
may seem.
This country is getting restive un-
der the present administration. The
people who voted Union. Government
into •office looked hn- leadership. In
place of which Parliament is closed
off with its work half done, and, -our
Cabinet Ministers flee the conatrY,
leaving the 'administraaion in the
hands of a few, mostly hab-beens, and•
incapable of properly administrating
their own departments, not to speak .of
taking on the work of various others.
Government by order -in -council has
become a menace. Sir Robert I3orden
should retprn to. Canada at once. Par-
liament should be convened and the
businesi of the country proceeded
with. It is not -at all necessary- that
we should stick in our oar at Cabinet
Councils in London at this time, That
will be all very well when peace terms
are being discussed, but. that - time,
from present appearances, is a long
way off.
If it is really Micesshry fort' us to
have Cabinet .representation in, Lon-
don at this time, let us appoint some
$pecially for the purpose. Let us
choose them on the basis of ,looks and
enterteining., Ability. Pick out some
that can sing a song -or `do a -vaude-
ville stunt, and really give the Brit-
ish public something for their Money.
For instance, we might appoint Charlie
