further; II dare not go back 1t wishes
to close its bargain before it IS too
the pound OF flesh ii will demand.
Fate Presses on Germany.
The military masters under whom
Germany is bleeding see very clearly
to what point fate has brought them.
If they fall back or are forced back an
inch, their power both abroad and at
home will fall to pieces like a house
of cards.
The Dynasty TrembIes.
1T is their power at home they are
thinking about now, more than their
power abroad. 1t is that power which
is trembling under their very feet
and deep fear has entered their
hearts. They have but one chance TO
perpetuate their military power or
even their controlling political influ-
ence. II they can secure peace now
with the immense advantages still in
their hands which they nave up TO this
point apparently gained. they viii
have justified themselves before the
German people; they will have gained
by force what they promised to gain
by il: an immense expansion OF Ger
man power. an immense enlargement
Of German industrial and CONNER
cial opportunities.

Their prestige Will be secure and
with their prestige their political
power. II they fail. the people them
selves Will be set up in Germany as
II has been in England, in the United
States, in France and in all the great
countries of the modern time except
Germany. II they succeed they are
safe and Germany and the world are
undone: II they fail, Germany is saved
and the world will be at peace. II
they succeed, America will fall within
the menace. We and all the rest Of
the world must remain armed, as Y
will remain. and must make ready T
the next step in their aggression; il
they fail. the world may unite for
peace and Germany may be OF the
union.
Intent Is To Deceive
DO you not now understand the
new intrigue, the intrigue for peace
and why the masters OF Germany do
not hesitate to use any agency that
promises to effect their purposes. the
deceit of the nations? Their present
particular aim is to deceive all those
who throughout the world stand for
the rights OF peoples and the self gov
eminent of nations; for they see what
immense strength the forces of justice
Of this war. They are employing lib
erals in their enterprise. They are
using men. in Germany and without,

hitherto desDised and oppressed. using
them for their own destructiOn-So-

odore Roosevelt, in q speech
- which he delivered here today at
the celebration OF the semi-centenniaI
Of the statehood OF Nebraska, Grid
eized the national policy Of the United
states for failure to protest prompt

brutality, deplored national failure to
prepare for war, pleaded for undi-
vided loyalty to the American flag
denounced the pacifists. and asked
Tor generous support and for the use
OF the Red Cross in caring for Amer

devotions and national antipathies Of
men who exercised the rights OF
selves traitors to America by the way
in which they prostituted our citi-
Kenship to the interests Of Germany
or to their hatred of England
1t would be impossible to overstate
The damage done TO the morale fiber
OF our country by the professional pa
cifisto propaganda. the peace-at-any-
Price propaganda.
Sheer CoWardice Responsible.
The fact that sheer coEardice was
was proved by the fact that the lead
ing pacifists dared not condemn
single specific act of wronE-dOing
when such act was committed by the
powerful and brutal foe they most
feared-Germany. They clamored for
blum. By their failure to protest
against the inhuman torture Of poi
son gas they made 1t necessary here
after to accept this as an ordinary in
strument Of warfare; just as by eur
failure TO take Immediate action IN
connection with the murder of inno-
cent non-combatants by submarines,
we committed an offence against hu-
manity the effects Of which cannot be
completely eradicated by any suisse
Quent action on our part.
Teanness Championed BY PacifIsfs.
"A1 this meanness and abandon
ment OF duty was championed by the
professional Dacifists on the plea that
thereby We should be kept out of

they prevented US from preparing, and
kept US utterly unprepared, on the

Agents Try to Divide L. $.
They proclaim the liberal purposes
Of their masters; declare this for

with no danger to either her lands or
her Institutions: set England at the
center Of the stage and talk OF her
ambition 20 assert economic dominion
throughout the world; appeal to our
ancient tradition OF isolation in the
politics OF the nations; and seek TO
false professions OF loyalty TO its
principles.
The False Betray Themselves.
But they will make no Roadway.
The false betray themselves also in
every accent. It is only friends and
partisans of the German government
whom we have already identified who
utter these thinly disguised disloyal-
ties. The facts are patent to all the
world and nowhere are they more
plainly seen than in the United States,
where We are accustomed to deal with
facts and not with SophiStrleS: and
the great fact that stands out above
all the rest is that this is a peoples
war; a war for freedom and justice
and self government for all the ma

world safe for the peoples who live
upon 1t and have made it their own,
