The resignation, however, came
much earlier than expected as the
Reichstag adjourned last week and 1t
was thought no decisive action border
ing on crisis would be taken this
winter. e.
Prince Won Buelow, ambassador to
Rome before the war, is mentioned
as possible successor to Michaelis.
He is strongly urged for the portfolio
by the conservatives, who see in him
man more to the liking of America
than his predecessors. Won Buelow
Is regarded as conservative who has
been mentioned as having clearer
perception and insight into. the AM.
erican national character and views
than any man who has yet held q
ministerial position during the war.
Won Buelow, however, Is opposed by
the Socialistic wings.
With Michaelis' action the Ger
mans paper crisis is over. The Pan
German propaganda, which loon1ed so
big In anticipation, but was so small
in results, has passed. in its place
has risen a new, and this time a really
serious crisis, caused by the ATTEMPT
of Chancellor Michaelfs, Vice Chancel-
Tor Helfferieh and Minister of the

DAwNING OF A NEW ERA

Remember that a loyal German citizen of the United States has come through more mental strain in re- nouncing his home country than you have who were born here and know but the love of the land of your birth. Credit him with having two countries tugging at his heart-strings and give him the full measure due him for his loyalty to the land of his adoption. Loyalty to America is the thing, not the accident of birth. There is no room today in America for those who are not loyal to her cause, and to the credit of the foreign born, there is as much loyalty among them gen enrally as there is among the native born Americans.
 The hand of government has rested so lightly on the American people that they do not fully realize the benefits and blessings of living in a free country-a country ruled by the people who live in the country. They have little or no ,dea ct the drastic rules laid down for the people in fcreign lands. They are indignant when they hear of them and tell "'vhat they would do" not realizing that they are living in America, net n country where th"re is a muzzle Uh their mouths al' an iror cs; a, their throat if they do not obey the laws laid down by autocrats to gov ern their actions.
 The misguided "pacifsts" have had their day in court; they have argued their side of the case. They have lost by a big majority. War is upon us. What they have argued in the past few months was argument. The same statements made today are high trca- son, and should be treated as such.
 The average American realizes that the blatant noises of the few individu- als is but froth, but the foreigner does not. Down beneath it all there is true Americanism of the sturdy kind, me rely waiting to be called into action when the real need comes. They are the ones who have and ever will de- eide the destiny of America. The

 Class 3. It shall be the duty of

 Where there is an alley in the rear of the premises, the vessels, tanks or receptacles shall be placed on the premises within five feet of the rear of the property line.

scum of America makes the most noise, very often gets into high places, oftimes it fools foreign coun- tries and sometimes misleads the general American public for a time, but there is inveriably a settlement, straight and true, backed by the na- ton.
 This war was not brought on by the rich man, by the poor man or by any class or faction; nor was it created by newspapers. It was brought about by a galling condition of affairs, so atrocious that there was but one of two things to do: bow the knee to the kaiser or fight.
 The American people refused to bow the knee.
 Had it not been for the great pre- parations for the war Germany was to bring on in Europe when the mo- ment seemed most propitious, Ameri- ca would have had war when Admiral Dewey sailed into Manila bay and took Manila. .'
 There would have been war with Germany when American ships took We're Cruz in Mexico.
 If the armies of Germany were sue cessful in their war with England, France and Italy, America was next on their list. And their list included Mexico and South America as well.
 Russia has become a free country by reason of the war The Armenians and the Jews see glorious freedom coming to them as a result of the war, and the autocratic power of Germany is tottering despite the years of mili- tary rule in which the people were used as pawns to live or die as direct ed by the would be "over-lords" of the world.
 All the lives, precious as they may be, and the paltry gold that America may pour into the balance, will not be spent Tn vain TOT the accomplish ment of an end that has been the vision of visionaries; the first real era in the advancement of world peace and the actual brotherhood of man.
 Germany may be but the pawn of God, playing the part of Judas of old, to bring back benighted hosts to the realization of the hopelessness of a earthly power. There can be no supreme earthly power.
 We can but do out "bit" and but a Dit" of earth may claim he who has left his bit above any earthly cover ing.
 Life is but a war of 'love" and 'hate". and he who hates most loses most. ..........
