WILL SUFFER
NO EVASION.

1t is stated in Berlin that Dr..
Anton Meyer-Gerhard's reply to the
officials charged with drafting the
German answer to the American notS
indicated the serious nature OF the
situation.
Dr. Meyer Gerhard was sent to
Berlin by the German ambassador
at Washington to indicate to the
German government the real attitude
of the American government and peo-
pie. He reported that the sentiment
in the United States had been grow.
ing somewhat more favorable from
the German viewpoint. and pafticur-
larly more Favorable regarding the
prohibition of the export of munl-
tons to the allies. The sinking Of
the Lusitania, however, undid al! this.
The state Of feeling in the United
States at the present time. he en-
planned. was such that it would not
be satisfied with unnecessary delay
in the answer. nor with an answer
which appeared to be evasive or fail
ed to meet the issue squarely. y
1t remains to be seen whether the
element represented by Won Tirpitz OF
that by more conservative Germauz
is TO get the Kaisers ear.

ONE YEAR
OF WAR.

One year ago today the Austrian
Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his
wife were shot and killed in the lit
tie Bosnian town Of Serajevo by
Garvio Prinzip. 1t was this act which
ultimately resulted in eleven nations
going to war. The war has caused
a loss to the various belligerents Of
more than 100000 men, dead, wound
ed and prisoners, and more than 500
ships. Of these about 120 were war
vessels.
Although Germany has from the
beginning used every means 70
smother discomfort among large
percentage of her people it has &C.
cassionally leaked out that many
Teutons are tired of war. The most
positive confirmation of these reports
was afforded last week.
The board of directors OF manag-
ing committee of the Social Demo-
cratic party in Germany published in
the Vorwaerts full-page appeal for
peace.
This interesting document calls
for an end to the war under circum-
stances which will make possible
friendships with neighboring nations,
and sets forth most clearly the op-
position of the party to territorial
conquest and annexation. The peo-
pie want peace, it declares, and the
government is called upon, in the
name of humanity, to make known
its readiess to enter peace negotia-
tionS.
The appeal is published under the
heading, Social Democracy ana
Peace"
Publication of this appeal for
peace resulted in the suspension by
the German government of the
Socialist newspaper. This paper has
not hesitated on several occasions to
express views regarding the war
which aroused resentment in official
circles.
Signs of internal dissensions are
multiplying in Germany and Austria.
The extraordinary harangue of the
King of Bavaria to crowd outside
of the palace is uneXampled in Ger
many.
Socialis. protests against the war
which are now being heard in the
Reichstag increase the impression
that national unity on the question
of war is beginning to break up.
The government is redoubling its
efforts to keep all news OF the ont
side world from entering Germany,
and people entering the country are
closely searched for foreign news
papers. Any one found with such
papers in his possession, or caught
circulating them, is sent TO prison for
months.

"That misguided and irresponsible
crowd which swept the streets OF this
great city TOWARD = your home the
other night did not typify democracy.
Genuine democracy is only when all
the people speak at once"
True democracy is but little un-
derstood by many of the rank and file
of this world, most of whom seem to
imagine its means mob rule.

margin. 1t says that railroad bridge
was blown up only few moments
before the Kaiser's train was due
and that the locomotive was stopped
just in time to prevent wreck.
The German explanation is that the
bridge was mined at the beginning

accidental, but it is reported that
