Canning the Kaiser"
Ry linton Sinclair

Tune: Marching Through Georgia"
1.-THE great success of the week
was the singing of Upton Sinclair's
Canning the Kaiser" under the in
spirational leadership of A. j. Gand-
WORT of Cincinnati.l
The explanatory news dispatch and
the words of Canning the KHser"
follow
News dispatch-London. ,1s 80.
The newspapers declare to-day
that the American soldiers and ma
rines have already found a slogan,
which is, Can the Kaiser!" The
British are much puzzled by the abil-
ity of the, Americans to invent new
slang, and the papers explain that
the word "can" is used in the sense
of Theoretically sealing the Kaiser to
prevent his further activity.
Bring the good old bugle, boys, We'll
sing another song,
Sing 1t with spirit that will move
the world along,
Sing it as we need to sing 1t, half
a million strong
While we are canning the Kaiser.

to-day!
oh, Bill! Oh, Bill! Wen seal you SO

good old Yankee way
While we are canning the. Kaiser.
Hear the song we're singing on the
shining roads of France;
Hear the Tommies cheering, and see
the Poilus prance;
Africanders and Kanucks and Scots
without their pants
While we are canning the Kaiser.
Bring the guns from Bethlehem, by
way of old New York.
Bring the beans from Boston, and
don't leave out the pork;
Bring a load of soda-pop, and pull
the grape-juice cork
While we are canning the Kaiser.
Come, you men from Dixieland, you
lumber jacks Of Maine;
Come, you Texas cowboys, and you
farmers of the plain;
From Florida TO Oregon, we boast
the Yankee strain
While we are canning the Kaiser.
Now we've started on the job, we
mean to put 1t through;
Ship the kings and kaisers all, and
make the world anew;
Clear the way for common folk. for
men like me and you
While we are canning the Kaiser.

German Colonies

A Washington dispatch represents
"a well informed entente diplomat"
as saying that Germany's overpopu-
lation makes it necessary for her 10
retain her colonies in Africa and pos
sibly some sphere of influence in
Asia"
Without discussing the grounds of
German colonial expansion, 1t is per-
mitted to point out to the we'll in
formed diplomat that in the five
years 1907-1911 German overpopu-
lation was relieved to the extent of
130 emigrants to Africa. In that
time she sent to Asia one emigrant,
In the year the war began, in all her
more than million square miles of
colonial possessions, there were some
$4,000 whites, mostly German, and
these mostly bureaucrats and SOL
diers.
Germans do not seek copiously in
Asia and Africa the restrictions of
Junkerthum and bureaucracy. In
the same five years more than no.
900 Germans came to the United
States. The great tide of German
emigration ceased years ago. The
German avoidance of colonies over
which the German flag flies is notori-
Gus.
Military and naval purposes, de-
signs against the territories of her
neighbors, have been characteristic

Germany is "either powerless or
free" will New Zealand and Austria

"Yo-ho, yo-ho. and a rumeblow!
And no for the Spanish Main,
For the Devil has loosed his fiery

Then up they tumbled-Captain

And every wicked sailor man
That ever has worn a queue.
It's "Ho, my lads. the waves run
high!"
And "Sniff the salt sea breeze!"

Devil TO pay,
When they summon the hosts of

Who sails to meet the grisly feet?
He flies the Union Jack!
It's Drake from Nombre Dios Bay
Where they sank him ages back;
And "Ha!" says he, will ye help a
Nor oaths nor treaties hold
Then tales of murder, arson and lust,
And the submarine, he told.
The tale of the sunken hospital

OF the Lusitanias drowned,
Deported millions, and starving

And salt-sown harvest ground.

by Bones and Skull, the measure is

The cruel Don, and the Picaroon,
So it's back to the gates of doom
once more;
No aid they'll get from u.s.
Says cap'n Kidd as he turned his

For yon's no place, when that crew

force. A strong. dominating indi-
viduality had to take the helm, or
the license being allowed political
propaganda of dangerous type
would have endangered the conser-
vative, patriotic and better element
of Russia in it's efforts to bring n
substantial, dependable democracy
to that huge nation.
Premier Kerensky is the man of
the hour-not that he is more cour-
ageous, more self-sacrificing, or more
capable than many others in his cab
met, but because, from his position
in life before the revolution. he is
trusted by both the army and the
people not to betray them. Do not
forget that the Russian people won
O. bloody revolution in 1905, only to
have the fruits of their victory taken
from them by unfulflled promises.
This time there is no intention that
there shall be repetition of those
events, and, therefore, the revolu-
tionary party is suspicious of almost
everyone. l believe that Premier
Kerensky has formed a coalition
cabinet which will have the support
and respect of seventy-five per cent.
of the Russian people, the other
twenty-five per cent. being composed
of antagonistic political parties of
extreme anarchistic or counter-revo-
lutionary tendencies. When Vice
Premier Nekrasoff said that counter
revolutionary projects existed IN
Russia, he only gave utterance to
what everyone has known almost
from the day the revolution sue
ceeded. Freedom of speech was so
absolute that there was no conceal
ment and meetings were held almost
openly, the purpose of which was the
establishment of the old regime.
It does not take much thought for
one to realize that aristocracy was
largely associated with the empire,
and, therefore, there are powerful
influences which have no taste for
republic, or for the social condi-
tions which will temporarily result
therefrom."
