KAISER THOUGHT To.
TAKE THE ENEMY
UNAWARtS

London, August 9.--'The Spectator
says,
THE great war has come. as every
sensible person knew It would come
very suddenly without apparent
reason. Germany and Austro-Hungary
are already at war with Russia,
France, Great Britain, Belgium and
Seryia AT any moment Germany may
be at war with Holland. Italy and
Roumania are almost certain TO come
in as soon as Russian troops appear
In strength on their frontiers.
Russia wants Pennsylvania and its
1000, 600 Roumanians now oppressed
by Austria. Denmark and Switzer-
land may very easily be forced to
take a hand for the small powers
are beginning TO realize that the issue
for them is one OF life or death. If
the Germans win there will be no
place left for the little independent
nations. They know that they will
always have genuine friend and
protector in Great Britain,
What caused the war? Our an
ewer Is that Germany was ready and
determined. She thought that we,
Russia and France, were neither
ready nor determined. and she, there
fore. struck. Germany began her
preparations for war as soon as the
kiel canal was finished. that is, as
soon as, in her belief, her readiness
was at Its maximum.
The German government has al
ways been a firm believer in the inn
portance of material preparation, as
well as in the idea that war 10 not a
matter of sef-defense.'
