The Old Chancellor Warns Germany OF
Socialism and thinks Cold Steel and

The War Between Man and Master
Necessity of Human Progress-Bal-
tours Land BuI-ParneIl's Leadership
in Danger.
LONDON, April 20 The Herald publishes
the report of an interview had by one of its
representatives with Prince Bismarck yes
terday. The ex-chancellor said he would
not, if it were in his power, interfere with
the workingmen in any way on May Day;
nor would he display any anxiety, which
only increases the aggressivenesS of the agi-
tators.
Is This for Kaiser BilIy's Benefit?
Socialism, he said, would yet cause trouble
in Germany and the man who would yield to
that element to prevent manifestation was
a coward. 1t was some time an act OF bsn-
evidence to shed the blood of the riotous in
defense of the law abiding. May Day was
not a dangerous enemy and the naming OF
it for an assault ought not to be dreaded. 1t
would only be sham fight, like the battles
of the Salvation Army.
New Principle Asserted.
fntagonism between employers and en-
ployes was a natural law and a necessity of
human progress. Progress would cease
should men ever become satisfied. Content
was only possible either with slavery, as in
Africa, or where munificent nature does not
ask men TO work. He dwelt upon the need
of combating Socialism,...the victory of
which, he said, would mean government by
the least INTEL gent.
More Advice to Wilhelm.
The first requisite in the government is
energy-not to be a time server, nor to sac
rifice the future to temporary present
convenience. The firmness, indeed, the
, fiercene of the ruling power, is a guaran-
tee of peace at home and abroad. A gov
eminent yielding TO the majority and re-
tanning its aut GRITTY by concessions, thus
paving the way for further concessions, is in
