| KAISER VIII lam. the surpriser, has
again astonishet the world and has cauged

especially likea quick action and does
things at which even those nearest to him
are surprised. England's traditional bar
tering, robbing and rowdy policy is gune
| one better by the Emperor, which has
caused the Engliishmen to be beside them

everywhere on the alert, and as they are
| meu of intellise nee and action, the entire
department of foreign affairs of the Ger
man Empire is thoroughly posted on the
doiDgs of the wo rid.
Formerly En- gland always had her say.
Now Englands prestige is on the wane.
England, nobod Y fears its power any
longer. as it is we'll known that England
cannot cope with the navy of the combined
powers and that in a determined and
lengthy war no one would suffer more than
| the English merchant marine and he pec-
pie of England themselves, whose indus
tries depend upon the importation of raw
material from all over the world and whose
people would be nearly starved ont if the

ucts were cut off from the rest of the
world,'
