 have hated and loathed that spir it ever since it came within my ken many years ago, hated it all the more IS I saw it ruthlessly pulling down l thing which was dear to me, the old Germany to which I was linked by ties of blood.
 The difference in the degree of guilt as between the German peo- pie and their Prussianized rulers and leaders for the monstrous crime of this war and the atrocious bar barism of it's conduct, is the differ ence between the man who, acting under the influence of a poisonous drug. runs amuck in mad frenzy and the unspeakable malefactor who administered that drug
 The world fervently longs for peace. But there can be no peace answering to the true meaning of the word, until the teaching and the leadership of the apostles of an out law creed shall have become dis credited and hateful in the sight of the German people. until mood of pentinence and decent respect for the opinions of mankind shall have supplanted the sway of what Presi- dent Wilson has so trenchantly termed "truculence and treachery"
 From each of my visits to Ger many for twenty-five years, came away more appalled, by the sinister transmutation Prussianism had wrought amongst the people and by the portentous menace I recognized in it for the entire world.
 And when this war broke out in Europe, I knew that the issue had been joined between the powers of brutal might and insensate ambition on the one side and the forces O humanity and liberty on the other, between darkness and light.
 Many there were at that time and amongst them men for whose character I had high respect and whose motives were beyond any pos sible suspicion-who saw their own and Americas duty in strict neutral ity, but personally I believed from the beginning of the war, whether we liked all the elements of the Allies combination or not-and cer- tainly did not like the Russia of the CZars-that the cause of the Allies was Americas cause.
 But whatever ones views and feelings, whatever the country of ones birth or kin. only one course was left for all those claiming the privilege of American citizenship when by action of the President and Congress the cause and the fight of the Allies was formally made our cause and our fight.

 But, if it be possible to speak of comparative degree concerning what is the highest as it is the most elementary attribute of citizenship that duty may almost be said to rest with an even more solemn and compelling obligation upon Ameri- cans of foreign origin than upon native Americans
 For, we Americans of foreign an tecedents, are here not by the acci- dent of right of birth, but by our own free choice for better or for worse.
 We are your fellow citizens be- cause you accepted out oath of al legiance as given in good faith. and because you have opened to us in generous trust the portals of Ameri- can opportunity and freedom, and have admitted us to membership in the family ofs Americans, giving us equal rights in the great inheri- tdHCC WHltH udS Occu CIcdtCu Dy the blood and the toll of your an cestors.
 Woe to him who considers his American citizenship merely as a convenient garment to be worn in fair weather.
 Woe to the German-American, SO called, who in this sacred war for cause as high as any for which ever people took up arms, does not feel solemn urge, does not show an eager determination to be in the very forefront of the strug gle, does not prove patriotic jeal ousy in thought, in action and in | speech, to rival and to outdo his native-born fellow citizen in devotion and in willing sacrifice for the coun try of his choice and adoption and i sworn allegiance.
 i As Washington led Americans ol British blood to fight against Great Britain, as Lincoln called upon Amer jeans of the North to fight theil very brothers of the South, so al Americans of German descent arc now summoned to join in our coun try's righteous struggle against { people of their own blood which under the evil spell of a dreadful obsession, and, Heaven knows through no fault of ours, has made itself the enemy of this peace-lov ing nation, as it is the enemy O peace and right and freedom through out the world.
 To gain Americas independence to defeat oppression and tyranny was indeed to gain great cause
 To defend the very foundations o liberty and humanity, the very groundwork of fair dealing between nations, the very basis of peaceablt living together among the people. of the earth against the free ant brutal onslaught of ruthless, law less faithless might is the highes cause for which any people evel unsheathed it's sword.

Herman Boxed We'll

Herman is no cheese champion" He is
a clever little battler, and his showing last
night was far better than expected. He is
used to long-dstance bouts and finds 1t hard
TO get going In six rounds. Pete made
many friends, for he boxed better than at
any other time here, and showed that he
soon could adapt himself to the sprint ex-
hibitions
In a long bout say OF fifteen or twenty
rounds, ! believe Herman would win. He
knows how TO box Williams, and his left
lab is good enough to keep the Kid at bay.
This is no attempt to detract from Will
llams's victory last night. 1t merely is the
opinion expressed by the writer, for Pete
was going good at the end.
williams was aggressive, carried the fight
10 his foe and won two rounds Three were
even and Herman was entitled to one.
Thus it can be seen that the margin was
narrow.
The bout was a clean exhibition OF box
ing, No blood was spilled. and the boys
fought fairly from start to fnish. 1t was
an ideal example Of the manly art Of self
defense.
