WHO STARTED THE WAR?-NoT
DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE.

Prior to the outbreak Of the great
war there was negotiation by tele-
gram between the two Emperors-
the Russian and the German-which
on both sides manifested strong dis
position and desire for peace. Here
is an extract from one of the Kaiser's
communications:
Remembering the strong ties of
cordial friendship which have for SO
long united us, | am using all my in
fiuence to induce Austria-H Hungary to
seek a frank and satisfactory under
standing with Russia. l confidently
hope that you will support my efforts
to remove all the difficulties that may
yet arise. Your very sincere and de-
voted friend and cousin, WILLIAM"
But Russia's support" for peace
was in the shape of mobilization for
war, as emphasized in the concluding
report to the effect that:
''The last telegram is from the
Kaiser saying that the Russian mo-
Utilization has rendered his efforts at
mediation nugatory, and that the Sc
curity Of the Empire demanding re-
~taliatory measures the responsibility
for the impending calamity would not
fall upon him. He once more ap
peals to the Gar to stop mobilization
in the name of the friendship which
has always united the two dynasties.'
Thus while the German Emperor
was urging peace with all his power
of persuasion the Russian, though
protesting to be engaged in the same
good work, was in reality making
ready for immediate fight, thereby
rendering nugatory the German eff
forts at mediation. In this cOnnec-
ton the London correspondent of the
Dublin "Freeman's Journal" observes
that in England, "Of course the chief
blame for the spread of the conflict
is put upon the shoulders of Germany,
yet Che continues) it is incontestible
that no one has worked harder for
peace than has the Kaiser. Messages
from the German Socialists to their
English comrades freely acknowledge
this and claim that the Emperor has
been their strongest ally in their. eff
forts to restrain the war party in the
Fatherland.
1t is not difficult, therefore, to de-
termine on which side rests the re-
sponsibility for the calamity which
has ensued.
Washington Journal., 1914-09-05

Of autonomy hardly less complete than
that which Galicia enjoys, but when
ever the subject was limited, Russia
threatened to mobilize. What was it
that "Pushful Joe" said to his coun-
trymen? when you sup with the
devil, you've got to use a long spoon
They are supping with him now.
As a result Of the war, Belgium, an
artificial Siamese twin, made up of
two nationalities forever pulling each
others hair, will probably be divided
along the language boundary, the
French-speaking part being joined to
France, while the Flemish part, to-
gether with the Flemish district about
Dunkirk, is Joined to the Netherlands,
to form a neat little Teutonic king
dom numbering II million inhabitants
and owning 1,692,517 square miles of
colonial land, with the privilege of en-
tering the German Empire as soon as
the nervous system of the Flemings
has recovered from the present shock.
The ridiculous boundary between Bel
GUM and Holland, the work of the
Duke of Alva, the apostle of the Meth
erlands, will thus be abolished. The
king of Belgium will then be out of a
job. The crown of Poland would just
fit him, and, as a member Of the House
of Coburg, he ought to feel at home in
the German Empire.

KAISER, NOT MEMBER OF PEACE
SOCIETY, HAS PRESERVED
PEACE FOR GENERATION.
BY Theodore Sutro.
From the washington Herald.

From the washington Herald.
New York, Aug. 27.-Premier Okuma,
,of Japan, president of the Japanese
Peace Society, and Japan, has just
declared war against Germany and
Austria. This is the third or fourth
wal that Japan has had in a peace
generation. The work of the Japanese
peace society apparently has failed
in its effectiveness.
The German Emperor is not a mem
Der of a peace society, but under his
rule Germany succeeds in preserving
peace for more than a generation and
yet critics of William II accuse him of
upsetting the peace of the world. We
hear nothing from his accusers about
Japan adding another to a generation
of wars.
None but p~rejudiced students of Eu-
ropean history and politics will claim
that this war began in August of the
present year, while the Kaiser was
enjoying his vacation in far away
Norway and his chief Of the general
staff taking the baths in some for
gotten resort.
The assassination of the successor
to the crown Of Austria-Hungary by
Servian fanatics was not the Of
war. Many intelligent American and
European writer's claim with an array
of facts that it began OIL the 18th day
of January, 1871, in the mirror room
of the palace at Versailles when the
great modern German empire was re-
created by Otto Won Bismarck. AS long
as Germany a solely a geographical
term comprising only a collection of
small kingdoms and smaller princi-
palities, each envious of one another
and plastic in the hands of the dip
lomatists, there was no talk of Ger
many being a peril to civilization"
When Bismarck welded together the
German united states the world sat up
and took notice. Where before Ger
many had been a land of dreaming
poets, it then became a mighty power
to be reckoned with in the council of
nations. The Germany of many states
was generally disregarded, but Ger
many united Immediately commanded
respect and aroused ~jealousies.
If the wal of 1914 began in 1871,
what accelerated the outbreak Of hos
tilities more than the little ubiquitous
trademark, made in Germany"
Being surrounded by envious compel
itors, Germany had to prepare for a
conflict that was sure to come. She did
prepare, and the conflict is here. The
struggle having begun in 1871, wal
was inevitable; we might as well have
it now, while we are still able to defend
ourselves.
Within a week after the call to arms
was issued six million men had donned
their uniforms, shouldered their rifles
and they believed that In risking Their
lives in battle they are laying the foun'
dalton Of lasting peace.

A DELueE OF ANTLeERMAN LIES.

The. monstrous anti-German lies con-
stantly appearing in the pro-British
press are so numerous that we cannot
undertake to expose all of them. Let
us deal with some of them. A few
days after the declaration of war a
~cablegram announced that 100 Social
list members of he Reichstag had been
summarily executed by the order of
the Kaiser. The reason given for this
alleged wholesale slaughter of these
Socialist legislators was hat they had
participated in anti-war demon
STATIONS.
Thousands of Americans who read
in their newspaper at breakfast,
thanked God that they lived in a
country in which such crimes against
humanity were impossible. The i'm
preston they obtain of the Kaiser
was that he is a blood-thirsty tyrant,
whose power for evil should be cur
tailed in the interest of humanity,
civilization, ETC., etc. Consequently
readers of anti-German newspapers in
this country feel that it is their duty
to sympathize with England's efforts
to rid Europe of this twentieth -cen-
fury Nero.
Now, not one Socialist member of
the Reichstag has been executed by
the order of the Kaiser. Not one.
Nay more, there has been not a sin
gle anti-war demonstration through
out the length and breadth of the
Fatherland since the war began. The
first shot fired in that war was a sig
nal for all Germans to forget all po-
litical differences and rally as one
man to the defence of the Father
land.
The propagators of anti-German lies
evidently came to the conclusion that
they had gone too far in publishing
the story about one hundred So.
~cialists having been executed. They
therefore, concluded to put in circu.
lation a less dreadful tale of the
Kaiser's alleged atrocity. This time
they undertook to go into details with
the object of giving an air of truth
fulness to their lying. In. a c~ablegram
spread before the readers of the daily
press, it was stated that Deputy
Liebknecht, leader of the German So,
cialists, had been summarily shot, be,
because he had refused to join his
regiment. The truth is that Deputy
Liebknecht was not shot by a firing
squad of German soldiers. He has
shouldered his musket and is at the
front fighting the enemies of his
country, as are hundreds of thousands
of his fellow Socialists.
The lies about German Socialists
are in keeping with the doctored ca
Diagrams that represent the German
army as defeated all along the line
4 tdC oNOl ACo WLlCu d1C CONSTANTLY up
pearing in the anti-German press Of
this country were true, the French
English and Russian armies should by
this time be we'll on their road tC
Berlin. So far from this being the
case, they are fighting to hold theil
own against the onward march of the
Kaiser's troops, which at this writing
are advancing with the irresistible
momentum of a mighty avalanche
menacing with destruction all thai
stands in it's way.
The latest lies are about Germans
committing acts of atrocities il
Liege, Belgium. The fact new reaches
us, rather late, that civilians have or
ganized and at a given signal, mas
sacred German soldiers. Swift pun
ishment followed, and this is now
named barbarism!

The leading German drapery paper
I've got it here-says that the war
has come in time TO rescue the German
world from the perversities Of French
coquetry and eccentricity. The In
spiration that is usually born in Paris
at this season. it says, is stayed. This
autumn no French models cross the
Vosges, and our textile trade must be-
stir itself. no longer to follow out
rageous French fashions, but to create
wise and godly German ones, which the
French must follow. Yes, Berlin must
for the future take the place OF Par1s
in the world of elegance"
Dr. Ruprecht laughed and shook his
head.

The center Of the square Is marked

The splendid square known as the
Place de la Concorde is another land

Queen Marie Antoinette and the blood

two fine fountains where the obelisk
stands stood the fatal guillotine dur
