precipitated the European war. He
could have averted it, but chose
rather to rush to the defense OF the
murderers who, there is every reason
to believe, were instigated by Rus
sian intrigue and subsidized by Rus
sian rubles. Even London's Special
cable" represented the Kaiser al
most going down upon his knees to
induce Russia to desist from mobil-
i%zation". Almost going down upon
your knees is not a war-like act, and
the Gar who would p~recipitate such
a war when two of his royal cousins
were using all honorable means to
deter him is either an inhuman
monster or is playing for a tremen-
dous stake.
Commercial rivalry, in which Ger
many has been very successful, has
embittered feeling in Great Britain
toward the Germans. The British
jingoes have used this sentiment for
years to stir up war between Eng
land and Germany. The Kaiser has
for 25 years been the guardian OF
Europe's peace. Everyone expected,
when he came to the throne, that he
would speedily plunge his empire
into war. Instead of SO doing he has
led it in a campaign of pacific ex-
pansion without parallel in modern
history. Why should he now be
maligned, why should Germany be
made the target of misrepresentation
and contempt, because he is support.
ing an ally in a Just cause? VIII,
should the sympathies of the Anglo
Saxon world be diverted to Russia
which stands for everything react
ionary and brutal which exiles ant
massacres its most intelligent cit
liens, which still keeps alive in TIL

and-dagger policy of Machiavelli, in
stead Of being accorded to the en-
lightened and constitutional mon

sympathies of that noble nation
should be with the liberty-lovinI
Germans rather than with the en-
shaved Muscovites, but the Frenc'
are blinded by the memories OF thei
unfortunate struggle in 1871.

ne mad TO deal IN the present crisis.
And when Russia continued to
mobilize, when French airships
crossed Belgium and Luxemhurg
into German territory, when bombs
were dropped into German cities,
while the Car and the French mini
istry were protesting that they de-
sired peace, the Kaiser would have
been a fool and recreant to his duty
had he not struck when he did.
1T was the intention OF Russia
aud France to delay action until
their notifications we're completed,
1t would have been national suicide
for Germany to let this scheme sue
coed.
"The issue is joined. The struggle
has begun. What its end will be no
man can say. If Germany and
Austria Hungary should be defeated,
they still will have the supreme
satisfaction of having battled with
heroic sacrifice in a righteous cause,
while TO France and to England will
accrue the eternal sorrow and shame
of having helped to assure the
supremacy of the Tartar, who is q
greater peril to them than the Vel
low Man of the Orient.
ut would be a doubtful glory &c
have intrenched the Cossack with hi:
knout upon the ruins OF Europe.

The causes which led to the
present struggle in Europe are too
little understood and appreciated in
this country. Let me try to sum
them UP by means of an imaginary
parallel. Servia and the other Balkan
states have been to Austria-tlungary
a source OF continual trouble, very
much like Mexico on Dur southern
border, only worse. Now, suppose
Spain we're ambitious to gain a foot
hold on the American continent. And
TO this end Spain were continually
fomenting instructions in Mexico.
Not content with this, the MeXicans,
under Spanish instigation and by.
means of Spanish gold, were organ
Ting revolutionary societies in those
American states, like Arizona and
New Mexico, where there was a
large and unstable Spanish popula-
ton. Now, suppose the Vice Pres
ident OF the United States, travelling
with his wife through Arizona, were
assassinated by a Mexican and the
crime directly traced to the Mexican
capital, Would not the United States
be perfectly justified i'll any steps,
would not national honor and justice
| demand-that full reparaticn be ex-
| acted from Mexico, and that
| American officials be permitted to
investigate aud discover the real in
| stigators OF tile crime? II Spain, as
| Russia has done, showed itself will
ling and ready to plunge the world
into war, in order to forestall SUCH
| investigation, would not the com-
mon sense Of mankind assume that
Spain was afraid her own guilt or
completely in the crime would be un-
covered?
| have cndeavored TO give you a
| fair parallel for the situation as It
exists in Europe. 1t should be I'M
