General VOn Bernhardi's Book
Dissected by Col. A. W. Harris

4 according to the dictates Of our own
ccnsciences
It has become painfully apparent
that the struggle now taking place in
Europe is instigated by the motive of
commercial supremacy and unbridled
lust for power and dominion. The
armed forces that are now and have
been for years past in evidence leave
no doubt but that the general welfare
of the world has been secondary to
the personal desires and ambitions OF
the nations of Europe for increased
power and accession of territory
j Even In neutral nations they study
their personal interests as to contin-
ued neutrality or participation on one
side on the other AS IN the ease of
Italy, one of her writer's on interna-
+ tional relations, Guglielmo Ferrero,
ANNOUNCES that this at present neu-
trail power finds itself In an unfortu-
nate dilemma. in that her treaty oh
4 legations with Germany and Austria
bind her to side with them. while her
ultimate interest lies IN regaining her
former provinces. Of which Austria
had uniustly deprived her This writ
en- frankly admits that the larger part
of the population of Italy is for join
Ing the allies to provide against the
entertainments of the Teutons, aud
the further loss Of territory that the
success of the German empire might
entail

frightful cost IN blood and treasure

win be the Inauguration Of systems of

At present Europe and other ma
tions are, TO some extent, suffering
from this friehtful comedy Of errors,
the outcome of jealousy national
pride ana prejudice.
The universal prayer of all good cit
izens should be for restoration OF
International harmony; let them look
forward with courage, and though the
pathway is at the present time beset
with thorns let them remember that
Truth crushed to earth will rise
again.
The eternal years Of God are hers
While error. wounded. writhes in pain
And dies among her worshippers.
