Time Is On Our Side.
Philadelphia Inquirer.

(Phlladelphla 1nqlirer)
 If democracy is making any progress in Germany it is in opposition to every force that autocracy can bring to bear. There is an important sec ton of the Reichstag that would, could it have it's way ,Hberalize the government and make it, as least in a measure, representative of the peo- pie. But the determination Of the Kaiser and his cabal of military mad1 men to insist upon autocratic power IS shown conclusively by the enlperor's own words. To the Bremen Chamber of Commerce he telegraphed that German loyalty will frustrate all attempts to part the people and their emperor To the troops that cap- tured Riga he issued an address Happen what may, and no matter how long it may last, on, then! Fall upon the enemy with joyful hearty and iron will to victory over all the enemies of Germany"
 Part of the scheme of autocracy is to plot peace. The Prussian despots arc adopts at plotting. They would have their own people believe that they want peace, but that their foes are relentless and insist upon the des- tructlon of Germany. In the mean time they throw out feelers, not iil the hope that these feelers will be grasped by their enemies, but in the hope that dissensions will be spread among the allied nations They arc not blind, these Prussion nlilitarists. For home consumption they belittle the United States, but they are not foollng themselves. They cannot faif to realize the immense strength that this country, fully aroused, can bring hear ic to talk peace with the view of deceiv- ing us into a policy of inactivity.
 Peace will come when our terms are met. There must be a responsible government in Germany. With tho Hohenzollerns We cannot deal Some day all Germany will understand this. It is only matter of time, and tine is fighting on our side.
 Every day that passes is a day gained for the organization of our stupendous forces. Every day that goes by is spike driven in the coffin of autocracy's ambition.
 Give us time-only a little time and we shall be on the front with armies and fleets of airplanes That will be something that Berlin call. understand, and when Berlin under stands the end will be in sight
 The one hope of autocracy lies in cheating us into a peace-a peace just for the sake of peace-that would leave it free to begin all over again.

MORE CROOKEDNESS.

n January 22 of this year Count
 Bernstorff, then German am-
 ador to America, dispatched a
 sage to the German Foreign Off,
 in which he sought "authorty to
 out up to $5O,0OO in order, as on ner occasions, to influence Con- s." This corruption of our Con- ,sional representatives was to take 70 through some mysterious or ization known to the Kaiser ana henchmen. The message was on the very day the President of
 Tinted States stood before the erican Senate and enunclated ms h for a world peace. At the same . the German war lords were king ready for an extenuatlon of r ruthless submarine campaign ch was destined to draw the ted States of America into the This expose of von Bernstorfs 8 ,hods will undoubtedly lead to a rough investigation of Congress. is doubtful if any of the men in
 halls of the capitol were led gay, as the sum of money asked
 by Count von Bernstorff is in- lificant when compared to other IS lavishly expended on German cigue in this country. Neverthe- ,, the American people will not be isfied now until they have a clean of health, exonerating even those 10 by their pro-German attitude ye brought suspicion upon them yes. If there has been any doubt " von Bernstorff was sent from IS country when he was this latest elation from the State Department ,uld clear up all misunderstood .s The trouble is, he was not sent ,ay soon enough.

Mayo Brothers Gift.
(Philadelphia, Rl1lletin !


 About thirty-five years ago a tornado of unusual violence swept across Min- nesota and northern Wisconsin, leav- ing behind a broad track of death and ruin. The little village of Roch- ester in the former State was almost wiped out. Many were killed, but more were terribly injured by falling wall and flying missiles. An old- faSh1oned practitioner named Mayo started an emergency hospital with tho aid of some Sisters of Charity, and before long the medical world was learning that most astonishing results had been obtained under what seemed most unlikely circumstances.
 Today Rochester is centre of sur sical knowledge and practice for tho whole world. The good old doctor has gone, but his two sons have built sp hospital which is the refuge of tie siIing from all parts of the world, and particularly physicians Just how these two men have been able to ac- conplish much Is ono of the wond- CTS of the ,,ge. The have had great experience, out their academic know ledge is no greater than that of others. while their results are unquestioned. .'
 Now these men have turned over all their savings, amounting to more that $1,6o0,0u0. to the University of Minnesota to establish this hospital as it's medical branch and they pro" pose to maintain i& until the sum of two millions of endowment :s reached. Two considerations in thiR connection are of importance. First, these men have given their lives to humanity and dedicated all their money to future generations The pro- pose to go out of the world wftl, nothing more than they brought into it. Secondly, they are not content, like many rich men, to wait until they are dead for their benefactions to materialize. They want to see it es tablished and to aid in it's. growth.
 Many rich men have benevolent ; impulses, but manage to keep them under perfect control. Parting with money is as painful as surgical operation. Yet the man who really wants to do good should begin while he is alive.

TO THE BOYS OF TODAY.

It is a common thing to hear g. kn of middle ago exclaim, "Oh, if
 had an education,--if l had only
 ltinued in school while I had
 Lnce."
 Eff" that is the rub. Many a man IS said that same thing. If I had he this if I had done that. Those D the after-thoughts of life. It has Esn frequently remarked that hind
 Int Is better than foresight. After Ing through an experience any man kl tell what should have been done. man who can tell before hand at should be done is the man who lnts.
 i In this month there are millions of lung man and boys throughout the
 dted States who are contemplating
 prospect of returning to school
 e prospect to many. is anything
 t inviting. They would rather go work They would rather join the Enies that are going to fight the tiles of Democracy on European 3l. They would, in a word, rather
 anything than go back to the
 ss-room.
 Thirty years from now those boys ho fail to do the proper thing, who n to return to school, will be ex- himing, just as we hear men of fiddle age say every day, "Oh, if I Id an education,-if ] had only con-
 lued in school while I had the &ance."
 Now is the time when the boys of knerica have the chance, if there Ter was 8 chance. We speak of this
