Constuonaist Hohenzollern Despo

FAIRLY in the beginning of last year, TIE
II Hohenzollern autocrat who regards
Germany and Germans as his property,
by divine right, did thing that was never
heard Of, not even when such crazy freaks as
Caligula, Nero, and Commodus were 'diyine
right" Emperors of Rome.
True, Nero had murdered his mother, but
the present Kaiser went no further than to
hate and mistreat has.
Commodus had Electrically posed as chart
oteer, gladiator, and master-archer; but the
Kaiser went no further than to show the
chaplain how to read the service, the dramat-
lists how to stage their plays, the cartoonists
how to draw a real cartoon, the orators how
to make sure-enough speech: and then he
wrote poem, and sent hundreds Of Germans
TO 'jalt for terms oggregatirg 122 gears, be-
cause the said Germans pronounced the Kali
sers ''Song to Aegr" to be ''ru6bish.'
Caligula is said to have been homicidaI
maniac, never satisfied unless he was having
some Roman killed. One of his peasantries
was, the summoning the Senators, sternly, at
the dead Of night, to come to the palace at
once; and after they had arrived and were
tremblingly waiting, for what might happen,
Cohguta would come prancing into the room,
playing an instrument resembling our fiddle;
and without pausing to speak to Senatorial
soul, he would skip on by, and off, and out Of

would destroy any vessel entering has ocean,
without his free-pass
Immediately, our Academy of Pensman-
ship, at Washington, smiled pleasantly, for
here was beautiful opportunity to show the
world fine specimen of writing.
Professor Wilson incubated rapidly. then
wrote the letter of February 1915, telling Mr.
William Hohenzollem, that if he monkeyed
with passenger ships, merchant vessels or
neutral shipping, contrary to recognized lar,
his behavior would be most unbecoming: and
that, if american property or life were lost
by his lnfraction of international law. he
would be held to "strict 0cc0uat0Jiitv.'
That was Professor Wilson's first "last
word"
The answer to it was, lie cold-blooded. de-
hberate, most atroclously unlawful murder of
119 Americans who were on the passenger
ship LuSitania.
One of the American mothers who was thus
assasslnated by the Hohenzollern mailman,
carried her whole family Of siu children with
her to her watery grave
Did we hold the assassin to ''8trict account
obizty?"
Not by any means. The Academy went to
work again, prepared another epistle, declared
that we would "omit no act or word" in the
vlndlcation and support of our first 'last
word"

OF Germany.

sight, still furiously playing the fiddle, After
which the Senators could draw a breath of
relief and go home.
In many respects, the Hohenzollern Kaiser
is as crazy as Caligula ever was; and while
his way of shedding human blood is different
from that of the maniacal Roman, he sheds
vastly more of it, and enjoys it quite as saw
ageiy as Coligula did.
When he pinned the honorary medal of the
Red Eagle upon the breast of Captain Boy-ed
who has been directly responsible for the
atroclous murder of American laborers, peace
tulty engaged IN earning bread for their
families, this Hohenzolern maniac gave the
world its truest insight into his real nature.
Since historical records began to be kept
there never was another instance where an
envoy, from one friendly country to onother
perfidiousy used his official position to abet
arson, and murder, against the people whose
hospitality he was enjoying; and nerer before
did any monarch publicly endorse and reacard
PERFIDY, ARSON, AND MURDER, of
that kind
But as was going to say at the start, this
Hohenzollern Kaiser, early last year, drew
an imaginary ring around Great Britain, in
the ocean, and declared that he donated to
himself that much of the sea; and that he

drops to his knees and turns his face toward
Mecca but when the gentle and gentlemanly
Randall tried to edit BlenI1's Star, he found
the task uncomfortable
1t was not in Randall's nature to be as
mean as Blenk wanted his editor to be; and
the -soldier-author flung up the job in
disgust.
How do [ know?
Because he wrote me letter about it.
But Blenk has got editors now that stop at
nothing. No sort of libelIous mess, provoca-
tive of hatred and murder, is too strong for
their stomachs.
When the Jeffersonian defed the Romanist
threats, and went ahead with the book, "The
Roman Catholic Hierarchy" it was Blenk's
paper that blew the trumpet for the American
Federation of Catholic Societies, declaring
that "Watson must be put out of business"
That we have not been put out of business
lawful business which never gave the Gov
eminent one minute of troubles due to our
following among true-hearted Americans who
are not yet willing to accept orders from
Italy, and from the wickedest hierarchy that
ever cursed the human race.

Roman Catholic Contempt for Protestant Law.
Archbishop Benk Again Goes a Frenzy.

A PERSON of the name of James Blenl
I crawled on his knees from office to office,
under foreign potentate, until he at length
came to be Rome's archbishop in New
Orleans.
Being the sworn subject of foreign i'm
poster, it is natural that Blenk should desire
to manifest zeal for his italian leige- lord !;
and, being an ignorant bigot of most un-
Christian temper, he periodically erupts, like
a small chemise wearing Vesuvius.
Blenlz has newspaper organ, of course: all
these oath bound, treasonous subjects of the
foreign potentate have journalistic tunnels
End sewers, through which they can vent their
malice and SANDER against all things that
are not slavishly deferential to pagan-papal
Rome.
The name of Blenk's sewer pipe is, The
Morning Star, and it is so unspeakably ran
porous, narrow, libeIlous, and disreputable
that it even sicl1ened into loathing and disgust

heroic effort to liberate the Mexican people
from the Spanish high priest and the Spanish
land-k1ng, no one could have said viIer things
about him than Blenks Star; and when
Archbishop Mora and his accomplices be-
trayed President Madero and assassinated
him, Blenk and his Star were profoundly
gratifed.
Then when Carranza, a thoroughly high
toned gentleman, took up the cause of the
Mexican people against their oppressors, in
the attempt to re-assert the laws of the Mexi-
can Republic against those of the Roman
church, this INSCRIPTIONS old liar, James
Blenk, opened up on General Carranza,
abusing him with all the coarse vulgarity of
a slum-thug, calling this Mexican hero cut
throat, bandit, an atheist, anarchist, and
every other venomous epithet that could be
imagined.
And why?
Because General Carranza is battling. as
Washington did, for the independence of his
country: because Carranza detests the rotten
rule of bestial priests, just as General Carl
baldl did; because Carranza has the same
opinion of this Romanist church in Mexico

RANGERS CARRY
TW0-AND-A-HALF
POUND PHONE

A portable telephone, made of alu
minum and weighing IL pounds,
the invention of a Forest officer, X.
r. Adams Of Missoula, Montana, will
be part of the regular equipment of
patrolmen on the National Forests the
coming season. This instrument Is
regarded as a great Improvement
over the set formerly used, which
weighed ten pounds.
A field man equipped with this
telephone, few yards of light emer.
gency wire, and short piece of
heavy wire to make the ground con-
nection can cut in anywhere along
the more than 10000 miles OF Forest
Service telephone lines and get in
touch with the headquarters of a
Supervisor or district Ranger. To
talk, one end of the emergency wire
Is thrown over the telephone line, the
two ends are connected to the ground
wire, the end of which must be thrust
into the damp earth or in water. Con.
tact with the line wire Is made pos
sible by removal of the insulation
from a few inches of the emergency
wire.
The Adams instrument does not
ring the bell of the receiving tele.
phone, but instead causes a screech.
ing sound from a small megaphone.
shaped apparatus, descriptively
known as "howler." This instru
ment is installed at the Ranger Sta.
ton telephone and is said to give
effective notice that someone is on
the wire, If the field man needs to
talk with some one elsewhere on the
line, the ranger station instrument
can be used to ring up the person
wanted. when the conversation can
be carried on.
These portable phones are especial.
ly valuable in reporting fires and 9th.

sible delay, and also in sending in.
