not find any furniture vans backing

Nor does the landlord of the $40 fiat

The fiat remains just a dark, dingy

unless Mrs. Jones happens to be a
woman whose imagination has lived

The Outlook, New York City.
Gentlemen
In your issue of August 18th
on page 1911, under title "The
War Against Popular Rights,
you make this statement:
History will hold the Ger
man Emperor responsible for
the war in Europe.
Again ON page S02 you say:
Because the German En-
peror combines remarkable
ability fer organization this
medieval ambition to dominate
all Europe he is the greatest
personal peril of the century
to popular liberty and human
development.
At the outset | wish to say,
| believe neither your editor DR..
Lyman Abbott, nor his able as
'sistant, Mr.. Fable, would be
guilty OF such incorporate Ian
guage nor of the inaccuracy OF
such claim. The writer of the
article in question has evidently
not interpreted history correctly
and seems to be blinded by rank
prejudice. There may be dif-
ferences Of opinion, but he must
not overlook the large group OF
we'll informed and disinterested
parties and American travellers
and correspondents who have
returned and who tell us the
man responsible for the war, the
one on whose hands the blood
will be-, is the one known for
his characteristic treachery and
duplicity, the Gar OF Russia.
A number OF years ago he
called a peace conference at The
Hague and at the same lime con.
tinued his army preparation:
towards attempting to anne>
more Asiatic territory and thu.
brought on the bloody conflic.
with Japan. Would you say tina
this ruler if he is any peril" a
all, is a lesser peril" than TIL,
German Emperor and less op
posed to human development"
One could rest right here ant
let history and well informed
people contradict your sweeping
statements.
Will you name any one countr,
i'll Europe that has made create
progress than Germany? Ever
its enemies admit this nation ha
made more conspicuous advanc
than any other country. Til
adversaries also admit that thi
most noteworthy progress oc
Cured under the leadership c
the present emperor. Surely
man who is a peril to popula
liberty and human development
could not bring the German En-
pire to such an enviable state {
advancement.
Furthermore, have you eve
heard Of a professor of a Germa
University being dismissed b,
cause he held views contrary I
those of the Emperor or h
government? On point Of fire.,
dom OF thought and speed
Americans perhaps could lear
from Germany. We, who claii
to be the greatest leaders {
: development and apostles {
: liberty, must confess 10 OF
: shame that a number OF men
: American universities were di
: missed because of restricte

reached this state OF advance
ment, and would you say coun-
tries making common cause with
a race as barbaric and backward
as the Russians, are as well
advanced? Would progressive
enlightened people join hands
with a nation like RussiaP Your
statements are so ludicrously
inaccurate, especially in the
second quotation, that | am salts
fled 10 simply challenge them
nothing more is needed. You
have shown such an unfair
spirit and your thorough dislike
for the German Emperor, which
may even be hatred, has cropped
out again i'll your last number of
the Outlook, in a statement en-
titled Comparison.
We can we'll afford to abide
by the records of history which
will undoubtedly say later on
that the German Emperor has
shown himself by his conduct all
these years to be one of the
great defenders of peace, a real
enemy Of war, and that he has
been one of the greatest
promoters of human develop
ment" all along the line, COM
mercial and educational, that
Germans are a God-fearing,
peace : loving, honorable and
progressive nation. without am
bition for territorial aggrandize-
ment, although they have a prop
err ambition to extend their COM
mercial influence.
Do you suppose for one
moment the German Emperor
would bring on this terrible war.
knowing his country had reached
SO high a state of development
and that war would meal serious
losses to him, even if he is
victorious?
Contrast the war-like spirit in
France and England several
weeks prior to the outbreak with
the moderate and peaceful tone
of the Germans and the German
press. Can you find a parallel
to the murder of Jean Leon
Jaures in Germany? Did the
Germans assassinate any peace
advocate? Certainly not, because
they wanted peace. However,
they have proper self-respect
and they also insist on their
right of existence. Have you not
read the kilograms exchanged
between the Kaiser and the
Gar?
Memory Of this var in Europe
ought to bring bushes to the
faces OF later generations Of
England and France when they
remember their countries joined
hands with the Russian nation
whose record is SO black with
oppression and insincerity, and
with 4 nation who, well-informed
people say, caused the present
war through sheer hatred and
jealousy.
| will just repeat the words OF
a writer in the New York Even.
ing Post, who said in referring
to Germany, 1T will be a
glorious death OF a nation that
is fighting civilizations battle"
If the unexpected should happen
and Germany be subdued. Eng,
land and France will fight the
battle ri their lives against this
very despotic and reactionary
nation they are now supporting
in combat with Germany.
You entirely miss the point
1t is a question of Teutonit
supremacy, Synonymous will
enlightenment, or Muscovite rule
equivalent to oppression, and j
is the Muscovite rule England
and France are endeavoring tt
fasIen on Europe by their as
sisiauce.
And what shall one say Q
Japan's action? Perhaps 70,
may reply to this. 1t matter.
little 10 ME, for | am satisfied
to rest on actual facts.
Yours truly.

May CHANGE CONTRACT
City Is Vavering on Signature of Band
Concert Awards.

The contract for the employment of
Marshall's band for outdoor concert
work in Topeka this summer is I'M
signed today. Reports around the city
hall indicate that the commissioners
are wavering on their original intention
of granting all the music fund to the
Marshall organization. 1t is understood
that the Knights and Ladies of Secur-
ity will receive part of the concert
season Offering
The law as passed originally i'm the
legislature gave Topeka the right to
raise a fund by taxation in order to
properly support and maintain Mar
shalPs band-ones of the most famous
amateur musical organizations in Kan
sas. The first contract; was given to
this band. Later the knights and La
dies of Security band succeeded in
landing a section of the fund. Now five
bands are bidding for slices of the city
music plum.
The contract submitted by Commits
sioner Porter was passed by the COM
mission Thursday. 1t has not been
signed and the city hall is looking for
a reconsideration.
The distribution of band concert
funds has been a bugaboo for every
commissioner who has been in the Of
flee of parks and. sanitation.
