the entire German people were of one

damage had been done the monarchial

a strong republican party had grown

in the Reichstag.
GERMANY HURT ABROAD

Speakers Declare the Personal Eie-
ment in Foreign Politics Dangerous
and Assert That Responsible Off

Remarks-Had Offender Been Any
One Else He Would Be Prosecuted.
Berlin, Nov. 1.-THE opening OF
the debate in the reichStag on En-.
peror Williams interview as pub
lished in the London Daily Telegraph
found the chamber fuller than it has
ever been before on the occasion OF
an important political event. All the
ministers, excepting Foreign Secre-
tary Won Soloen, were present, the
royal. diplomatic and public galleries
were crowded and there was not q
vacant seat on the members benches.
The interpretations regarding this
interview, which has been character
lied as highly indiscreet, were taken
up at once. Herr R%assermann, Ma
tional Liberal, opened the debate. He
expressed a hearty desire for the con-
%tinuance of friendly relations with
foreign countries and said he be-
lieved that a very small proportion OF
the German people was u~nfriendly to-
Great Britain. The personal elements
in foreign politics were dangerous.
he declared, and the higher a man
stood the greater care he should take
of his u%tterances. Responsible OFF,,
Gals should examine his remarks
The National Liberals did not desire
the resignation of Chancellor Won Rue-
low, but they did want the elimination
Of the personal element from the on
duct of foreign affairs, as it's continu-
ance was bound to bring failure.
Continuing, Herr Rassermann re-
cited the evil effects of the emperor's
u~tterances. He said that China, ia

Smarter Than she Looks.

A great many dairymen, before be-
ginning to milk, feed each COW. The
mixer hurries to get through, because
If the COW finishes her meal before
the mixer has done his work, she en-
torts more feed by holding back her
milk, so must be fed again to keep
her in good humor. 1t Is a better
plan to do the milking first and then
feed Immediately, and cows that are
accustomed to this treatment gener-
ally give down their milk cheerfully,
for they know that milking Is pre-
lude to feeding. A COW Is much
smarter than she looks. and more
grateful than most persons would be-
lieve. so long as the cows know they
are not going to be struck or beaten,
they will neither kick nor hook. An
experienced milkman will never al
lew any loud talking or excitement
about his barn or stable. for the
auieter the cows are kept the greater
the quantity of milk given, and the
easier the work Is perfomed-From

II never deliberately consider fl

To stave off ,hese unpleasant
