TWILIGHT OF KINGS

Before establishing hell on earth
the pietistic kings commend their
subjects to God. Seek the Lords
sanction for the DEVILS work, says
the Chicago Tribune in an editorial
captiened "The Twilight of the
Kings"
"And now l commend you to
God" said the kaiser from his bal
cony to the people in the street.
Go to church and kneel before
God and pray fur his help for our
gallant army"
Pray that a farmer dragged from
a Saxon field shall be speedier with
a bayonnt thrust than a winemaker
taken from his vines in the Aube;
that a Berlin lawyer shall be
steadier with the rifle than a Mos
COW merchant: that a machine gun
manned by Heidelburg students
shall not jam and that n worked
by Paris carpenters shall.
Pray that a Bavarian hop grower
armed in a quarrel in which he has
ne heart shall outmarch a wheat
grower from Poltava; that Cossacks
from the Don shall be lured into
barbed wire entanglements and
caught by masked guns: that an
inn.keeper of Salzburg shall blow
the head off a baker from the
Loire.
go to the church and pray for
help"-that the hell shall be hot
ter in innocent Ardennes than it
is in equally innocent Hessen; that
it shall be hotter in innocent Kovno
than in equally innocent Posen.
And the pietistic car commends
his subjects to God that they may
have strength OF arm in a quarrel
they do not understand; that they
may in1ict more sufferings than
they are required to endure and the
name of Romanoff be greater than
the name of Hohenzollern, that it
may be greater than the name Of
Hapsburg, that its territories
shall be wider and the territories
of Hohenzollern and the territories
of Hapsburg less.
The pietistic emperor Of Austria
commends his subjects to God, to
seek divine assistance 70 crush the
peasants of Servia, dragged from
the wheat field when it was ready
for the scythe and given 20 the
scythe themselves.
This is. we think, the last call of
monarchy upon Divinity when
Amodeus walks in armor. The
kings worship Baal and call it God,
but out of the sacrifice will come
we think, o resolution firmly taken
to have no mure wheat growers and
growers of corn, makers of wine,
miners and fishers, artisans and
traders. sailors and s%torekeepers
offered up with prayer to the AL
mighty in a feudal slaughter, arm
ed against each other without hate
aud without cause they know, or,
If they knew, would give g penny
which way it was determined.
This is the twilight of tao kings.
Western Europe of the people may
be caught in this debaele, but never
again. Eastern Europe of the kings
will be remade and The name of
God shall not give grace to a hun.

HOW NEW ZEALAND PROTECTS
ITS CITIZENS

San Francisco, CAL, March O.
''There is practically no poverty in
New Zealand" says Rev. Edward
Walker, after 80 years social and re-
ligious service in the islands. There
are no millionaires, no slums.
New Zealand has a European
population of 100000 and an abor-
iginal population of 10000.
1.-The laws are world famed. Pri-
mary education is free, secular and
compulsory up to a prescribed stan
dard, with free text books, free trans
portation on the railroads for school
children and where there is no rail-
road an allowance for conveyance or
for boarding near the school. There
