The papers comment on the polit-

character with reserve. The Post
considers it easily comprehensive
that woman of her abilities should
seek to influence the political views
of her husband: but the paper re-
trains from criticism since she avoid
ed ali political activity after Emper-
or Frederick's death. The Kreuz lei
tung wholly ignores her politics.
The Neuste Nachrichten SAYS she
brought from England political views
which were suitable in a highly-de-
veloped, yfoundationed country
like Eng land, but which were out of
place in country like Prussia, strug-
CLING for existence"
The Dcutsche Tages Zeitung says:

to our sentiments to recall the strug-
giles in which she was drawn"
The Liberal papers describe the
hopes Germany INDUCED in through
her indoctrinating Emperor Freder-
lex with English constitutional
views.
