KA|SER'S GOVERNMENT
REAL MARK AIMED At

There is no anti-German sentiment
among the people or in the Press of
this country. as some distinguished
German residents writing to news
papers seem to think. We have too
many German citizens. respect them
too much, owe too much to their in
dustry and loyalty ever to have any
thing but the best feeling towards
the Germans.
1t is against the German govern
ment and its policy that the present
Indignation is directed; against the
Kaiser with his wild militarism that
is now working havoc in all Europe
and has brought Germany itself face
to face with ruin.
American public opinion holds the
Kaiser's government responsible for
destroying the peace of Europe and
bringing distress upon the whole
world. 1t was the Kaiser's govern
ment with its year of sacrifice
that started the last orgy of prepar-
alton for war. whose after effects
are being realized to-day. The
Kaiser could have held back Austria
Hungary when Servia humbled her.
self. The world looked to him to
save it, but he did nothing.
The nations of the Triple Entente
went into the fight with reluctance
that showed some sense of their re-
sponsibility as civilized powers. But
the German government flung Ger
many in without counting the COSTS
without even stopping to find out
where its ally. Italy stood; eager to
strike the first blow with that huge
engine of destruction in which ne
had such mad confidence.
American public opinion is out
ragged by the wanton attack on the
weak neutral power of Belgium and
the Staying of its subjects. 1t re-
coils at the cost of what the Kaiser
has undertaken. 1t has no sympathy
with the excuse that this is a war
of self preservation for Germany.
That is a militaristic delusion. Un-
der peace Germany was outstripping
its rivals. filling England with anx-
iety on the sea and putting out OF the
head of France its cherished visions
of a regained Alsace and Lorraine.
American opinion feels that the
best thing that can happen to the
world is to have the German mill
taristic idol shattered and thrown
down in the dust. Without the
least feeling against the German
people. that is how the American
public feels about the present Ger
man government and its works. ana
that sentiment is rightly reflectea
in the American press. New YORK

to the well-deserved chastisement of
Servia for conspiring against the in
tegrity of the Austro-Hungarian en-
pire that precipitated the mobiliza-
tion of the Russian army.
That premature action in turn de-
stroyed the desperate efforts for
peace that were at that moment pro-
crossing in every direction. If Rus
sian mobilization could have been
deferred for two or three days there
would in all probability have been
no war.
