There is need in Germany today of
clear.headed craftsmanship tempered
with a feeling of responsibility. The
empire is not well off in the matter
of statesmen. In fact, the kaiser is
Germanys only real statesman today.
The truth might as well be admitted,
for nobody who has followed recent
events is ignorant Of the situation. 1t
is not so long since the chancellor
stood up in the Reichstag and told the
members that the peril of Slav domina-
ton menaced the nation. 1t was not
so long before that that there was a
recrudescence of anglophobism in the
land Russia and Great Britain-these
were the two enemies of the future, the
implacable opponents and evil wishers
of the empire. The czar of Russia and
the king of Great Britain have just re-
turned home after a visit in Berlin
which, so far as one outside the charm
ell circle of royalty could judge, was
one of unusual cordiality and was
marked by an apparently genuine and
amiable exchange of courtesies between
the kaiser and his two reputed enc.
mics.
That is of significance, but there is
more yet. For the rulers of Russia an
Great Britain were here as guests al
the marriage of the kaiser's only
daughter to the son of his bitterest
German enemy. The bitterest enemy
himself came to the wedding, entering
Berlin for the first time since hi
fathers kingdom was stolen by Bis
marck, and the bridegroom had but re

MUST HAVE LOTS OF LUCK TO
WIN LEAGUE PENNANT

"To win a big league pennant, a
club must have all the luck" remark
ed President James McAleer, of the
Red Sox, a week ago. "The biggest
luck club can have is to keep its
team of regulars intact throughout the
season. That is whore we were lucky
a year ago. We had to be. When the
other clubs were being shot to pieces
by accidents, we were in there day af.
ter day with our regulars. Our out
tieldcrs practically played every game
In fact, the three lost but eight games
and we had Hendricksen to stick in
when we needed him, Our infield was
nearly as lucky, stahl being the only
one who was forced to rest now and
then.
cleveland has been having the
same good fortune. The Maps have
been going along with all their regulars
in the game, but the season is very
young and lots can happen between
now and October 5. The team that is
lucky in being free from accidents is
the team that will win the pennant.

Although He Is Known as War Lord,

STATESMAN OF NO MEAN

Something About Moves He Has Made
With View of Bringing About

By Karl H. Won wiegand.
[uN1rEp rREss LEASED wIRE. ]

UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE.
Berlin, June 25.-The young subalt-
erns, who hope for war because it
means chances for promotion; the gun
makers, who hope for war because it
means business, and the jingoes, who
hope for war because they are built
that way and IT help it, sit in their
respective circles and speak bitterly of
the man who bears the title of war
lord and refuses to go to war if he can
avoid it. They point to pretext after
pretext which might have justified an
appeal to arms, and glorify the young
crown prince, who sits in the imperial
gallery of the Reichstag and applauds
warlike sentiments, and who writes
books picturing the splendOrs of the
battlefield.
Through it all the object of their
wrath goes his way unmoved, and the
whole world had occasion recently to
send its congratulations and good
wishes to a war lord who has done
more than any other sovereign to pre-
serve the peace of Europe for quar-
ter of a century For twenty-five
wears Kaiser Wilhelm William IL has
been the rock against which every jim
goistic movement Of his subjects has
been wrecked. An advocate of a for
midable army, believer in war as
school for the manly virtues, an emper
or who rarely let's himself be seen ex
cept in military uniform, the kaiser hat
nevertheless repeatedly made it clea
that he will not enter war until al
other courses are closed. But if h
must, then, and then only, will he b.
the real war lord. MacDermott ia
nous song of 1873 fits the case exact
ly:
"'We don t want to fight, but, by jim
go! if we do,
We've got the ships, we've got tn
men, we we got the money, too
There may be other men in German
who see as clearly as William II wha
a calamity a European war would bc
r but these others are not men who fee
r themselves divinely called to rule owe
the destinies of a people and answer
, able before the judgment seat for thei
9 conduct. William does feel himsel
q thus called. Not much has been hear
of the divine right of kings since tn
I famous Konigsberg speech Of three {
q. four years ago, but there is no reasO
p to believe that the kaiser has chang,
, his attitude, or that he considers hin
I self in any other light than as a rule
+ divinely set to guide his people an
q bound to render an account of h
stewardship at the last great day.

Hail, roll top desk! To thee I sing.
Mausoleum of my past!
What hopes and fears of earlier years
Sleep in thy caverns vastl
Ny thoughts within thy records lie;
Blind memories dig like moles
Amid the fixed sarcophagi
Of thy stuffed pigeon-hOles.

Scenarios of success,
There in thy tombs and dusty gloOms
Conceal their deep distress.

They share their dreary lot;
These led me up life's sunny slope,
But now they are forgot.

And great thought come to life,

And wonders will be rife.

Long since consigned to thee,

DEMOCRAT DISCUSSES WOOL

This letter ought to be reproduced in

frank statement of a practical and ex-

To the Editor of the Republic: Have
been reading an article in your paper
entitled, "And Now for Schedule K"
It is as strong and just indictment of
the tariff on wool, with the exception
of one paragraph, in which you say,
But the duty of AZ per cent on wool
enables the shepherds, like Senator
Warren, to get fine prices for their
fleece" In this paragraph you do a
great and, I am sure, an unintentional
wrong to the flock masters Of the
United States They have never, so
far as know, received any protection
from the tariff! it has all gone into
the pockets of the manufacturers. l

ural colored ostrich plumes mounted on
tortoise shell or ivory. 1t is Of Gargan-
tuan proportions and serves to screen
admirably the too generous display of
snowy bosom revealed by the next-to'
nothing evening bodices. The sable
plumes of black ostrich, and also the
snowy white are lovely with either
ivory or amber sticks. These ostrich
feather fans are regular in shape, but

from one side to the other with an
irregularity of line most bizarre.

Quite the newest shape for the littl'

Her Daily Life.

Her daily life is all for those
To whom she is the light, the rose,
The comfort and the cheer that bring
Into the heart eternal spring.
Her daily life is just to share
Our trouble and our toll and care,
To do so many little deeds
Arising in our daily needs
FOR comforts; sweet attentions given
That make the very earth heaven
And all life's peace and joy and rest,
Because of her, so sweetly blest.
Her daily life is all day long
To tend her household toll with song,
To think of all our whims and ways,
To cherish little words of praise,
To think of this and that to make
The home life sweeter for our sake,
To dream and trust, and, good or i'll,
Respect our wish and grant our will.

A guide, a star-through all their lives
