WIHLT

This puzzle was not difficult to solve. The
word ''wEHLT" meant vote for, and the
rectangular figure was synonymous with the
name of the candidate, Vierick. Vierick has
lately been considered too mild in his opin-
ions for Social Democrat, and he has been
read out of the party.
On some questions the Social Democrats
hold the balance of power in the German
Parliament They have captured some of the
most important constituencies, they repre-
sent al altogether disproportionate number
of voters, they are resolute, confident,
aggressive, and possibly the day is not far
distant when they will command as impor-
tant position in the German Parliament as
the Irish occupy in that of Great Britain.
Whatever we may think of the several sorts
of Socialists in America, nearly all Americans
will be free to admit that the Social Demo-
Gratis, radical as they are, have served
a very useful purpose in Germany. The
social ameliorations effected by the Govern
ment, and others which are coming within
the sphere of practical politics, are largely
due to the spread of this threatening radi-
calism. Some of these governmental meas
ures go much further in principle than we
are prepared to follow, but paternal semi
despotism can scarcely justify its existence
to people as intelligent as the Germans
without many fatherly acts on behalf of its
clamori"" children.

bar that he was elected to seat on the Su-
preme Bench of the Republic, which he still
honors and adorns.
David Dudley Field, who died few weeks
ago, If not the most prominent, was certainly
not the least successful of this remarkable
quartette. No matter how able lawyer may
be, like an actor, his fame is ephemeral unless
he can do something to associate his name
with the law or the practice of his time, and
to do this he must add to the abilities of the
jurist the attributes of the statesman. AS
times flies on, the Code of Procedure in the
State OF New York may be changed and mod
flied to meet new conditions, but no change
can detract from his great fame, or lessen
the debt of gratitude which the people and
bar of New York owe him.
The lives of these four brothers should
serve to stimulate every young American to
exertion, for they illustrate how great success
may be achieved under the most adverse
circumstances.

members most opposed to him. He was ed
ucated in the common schools and is turner
by trade. From 1876 to 1885 he was a mem
Der of the large firm of Isslieb Il Bebel, in
Leipsic, from which city he was expelled I'M
der the state of siege which ultimately cost
him his interest in the firm created chiefly by
his own talents and enterprise.
Bebel has been imprisoned about four
years in alL-twe when he with Liebknecht
was condemned for an attempt at high treas
on in the trial already mentioned, the con-
demnation being for his well-known opin-
ions and not for, any overt acts performed.
AS a first class and fellow prisoner with Lieb-
knecht he passed two years under the teach
ing of that learned man, and so he may be
said to have received a very liberal education
In the penitentiary.
In the parliamentary term 1S74-77 Bebel
was tried at Dresden and convicted of speak
ing in manner calculated to bring the En-
peror into contempt. He was sentenced to
six months Imprisonment, and the judge I'M
wisely exercising discretion which the law
gave him, declared Bebel's seat in Parliament
to be vacated. A new election was necessary,
and the Government had the satisfaction of
having this convicted maligner of the Empe
TOR lnGorSed in reelection by a majority of

ever-increasing self-consciousness and at
tempted dignity, until at last he met COM
rade and learned the cause of the untimely
merriment.
Paul Singer, a member from Berlin, Jew,
a successful business man, very obstinate,
very shrewd, and very charitable, was inter-
ested in the refuge for the homeless. 1t pro-
vided shelter for all corners, and asked no
questions. The president of the Berlin police
thought it a fine thing to utilize this refuge
for detective purposes. Officers entered it
searching for suspicious characters. Singer
heard of this, brought it before the board of
managers, and was appointed committee
with full power to act. He called upon the
chief of police, told him that police surveil-
lance of the refuge would tend to defeat its
objects, and that they could not tolerate any
more visits from his officers. The chief was
disposed to treat this as sheer impudence,
but he soon found that the institution would
be closed unless he gave Singer a distinct
pledge that police officers should not be again
permitted to enter the building. 1t would
never do to close the institution in that way,
and he had to give the pledge required.
When the state of siege was proclaimed in
Berlin many Socialists were expelled by arbi-
trary edict, and Singer publicly contributed
five thousand marks to assist their families
He was thereupon threatened with expulsion,
but he quietly notified the authorities that
his works would have to close on the day of
his exile, and thousand able bodied men
would thus be thrown out of work. The
authorities, considering what this involved,
concluded that they would pay too dearly for
their whistle if they expelled Singer under
the arbitrary powers they were using SO
harshly in many other cases, and as they
had, and could get no legal case against him,
he was allowed to remain in peace.
Louis Vierick, a member of Parliament
elected for Leipsic rural district) in 1884, is
a good looking man, the son of an actress,
and having much of the appearance of his
imputed relatives, is somewhat shrouded in
mystery, and stories of the most exalted
affinities are rife. He is called ''the prince"
an Implication OF left-handed relationship,
which is not considered disgrace. He was
an able contributor to the socialistie paper in
Berlin, and was expelled under the state of
seige in despite of supposed immunity. He
is good organizer but not good speaker.
When he was candidate for Magdeburgh in
1881, the police would allow no meeting to be
held, no speech to be made, no bill to be
posted containing his name. But all at once
puzzle engaged the attention of the city.
In the newspapers were advertisements and
everywhere ON the walls were bills containing
single word and four lines enclosing
square. 49,

strictly speaking, cause and effect, but the
necessities of the situation, in the jealousies
of the petty German courts of the nobility,
and of some of the wealthy classes, made it
imperative, in 1850, that the North German
Confederation should be based upon univer-
sal suffrage. Bebel and Liebknecht, the two
most prominent leaders of the Social Demo-
Gratis to-day, were elected to the Parliament
as representatives of the working classes.
The followers of La Sale and of Karl Marx
were then rival factions, so weak that Bis
marck thought it scarcely worth while to re-
press them. On the contrary, he was inclined
to encourage them a little, as thorn in the
side of the Progresssts, who were far more
powerful obstacles to the success of his nu-
nervous schemes.
In 1872 Bebel, Leibknecht and one other
we're prosecuted for alleged attempt at high
treason, and this brought their party into
prominence. In 1874 the rival factions
coalesced, and then succeeded in electing
nine representatives to the Imperial Parlia-
ment. In 1877 they elected twelve members,
capturing two districts of the capital and
causing the Government no little alarm, not
for what they were, but for what their growth
might foreshadow.
Bismarck had been thwarted in many ways,
but i'll the horror and excitement engendered
by an attempted assassination of the Empe
ror, he was able to dissolve Parliament and
elect ma jority subservient to his wishes.
Then new and still more stringent coercion
law was Immediately brought before Parla-
ment, and passed by a very decisive majority
in the face of a strenuous and fierce opposi-
ton by the nine members which the Social
Democrats still retained. The new law was
carried out with utmost rigor, the journals
were at once annihilated, the clubs dissolved,
and many methods of prosecution having no
warrant in law were used to compel the
flight of leaders against whom no legal case
could be made out which public opinion
would tolerate. All meetings were strictly
prohibited under heavy penalties, and it was
supposed that the party would be annihilated
without difficulty; yet in 1881, when the next
election for the German Parliament took
place, twelve Social Democrats were seated.
The Government had gone so far as to arrest
Socialists for the crime of distributing bal
lots, and their surprise at the result may
well be imagined. In 1884 the Socialists cap
tured twenty-four seats, and they now have
thirty six, chiefly from among the most inn
portant constituencies. In the meantime
Bismarck tried to steal some of their thunder
by governmental insurance of work people
and other like measures, and William III. has
been posing as very much of a Socialist.
Among the German parliamentary Social
lists August Bebel is pre-eminent. He is
fifty-three years old, of medium size, with
full, short beard and chestnut hair, regular
German features, gray eyes and of delicate
aspect He has a clear, ringing voice, to be
heard by the largest audience; he is pos
scssed of great eloqueace, and lie never fails
to win the close attention even of those
