BETTER LET II DROP.
What the German Press Thinks of
the Proposed Prosecution of
Socialists.

Berlin, Dee 1.-THE fact that Prince
HohenIohe. the chancellor. has conlmun-
Gated 10 Herr Won Leverzow, president of
the Reichstag, request from the public
prosecutor that the Reichstag sanction
fac criminal prosecution of the Socialist
deputies who remained seated on Thurs
day last when Herr Won LeyetZow called
for cheers for the Emperor. has aroused
i storm Of discussion in the press.
The National Ieitung, commenting OF
the request says. If the Rrichstag
were To authorize the prosecutions fur
ther action would depend ON the decision
of the judicial authorities ON the doubtful
question as TO what constitutes les ma
jrStc.
The BoerSen Courier remarks: There
is no doubt that the Rcichstag will rm-
phatically reject the request. If the GOV
ernmcnt intends To dissolve Parliament
let it be done before unpleasant debates
arise"
The Vossische Zcitung thinks that .'thr
harm that will Ice done viii outweigh the
advantage which would he derived from
prosecuting the Socialists.
The Tageblatt states that "the Social
lists stand in great need of Il weapon with
which to stir up the masses and the GOV
ernment is going the best way 10 supply
it."
The Vorwaerts. organ Of the Socialists,
says: ARTICLE - of the constitution re
serves to the RcichStag alone the right of
regulating its discipline. The public
prosecutor is not entitled to interfere with
what the deputies do within III" precincts
of the House"
