country fully two-thirds of its popula-
ticn is Catholic.
Up to a few years ago the National
Liberals formed the strongest party
but they now occupy second place.
They sit Immediately to the left of the
Catholics, and are usually opposed to
everything which the Conservatives
favor An offshoot of the Liberals is
the Freisinnige, or Independent party,
made famous by the oratory of Eugene
Richter, its founder.
Then, to the left of the Independents
come the Social Democrats, who would
revolutionize everything, sweeping the
hereditary Government from the face
of Germany. 1t was Bebel, their great
leader and spokesman, who hurled the
word madness at the Emperor, and
who made such a pitiful spectacle of
General Won Gossler, the Minister of
War. when the latter attempted to de-
fend the outrages committed by army
officers
Ordinarily, when there is nothing of
moment going on, the sessions of the
ReichStag are terribly uninteresting
The only exciting feature is the neces-
sary effort to secure admittance To
