True Pacihcism.

Editor The st. Louis Star: Your
editorial on "playing the Kaiser's
Game" was so opportune and SO
forcefully and felicitously phrased
that I called the attention OF the edl-
tor OF the IRON COUNTY REGISTER to
it. With strong editorial comment,
he copied it.
Roger Baldwin's communication IN
Wednesdays Star is the kind OF stun
that ought not to be published. l am
"pacihst," il you please, as long as
there ia a possibility of avoiding war
by diplomacy; but as soon as any
nation throws Uncle Sam on his back
and puts his heel on my Uncle's neck
no matter how blandly he may smile,
how earnestly he may declare his
friendship. or how softly and sweetly
he NAV modulate bis voice, l know
that the war is on in spite OF diploma
cy. in spite of Uncle Sans dislike for
1t, and in spite of his herculean efforts
to avoid 1t. This is the present con-
dition, and am for my Uncle Sam
first, last and all the time.
Talk about peace without VIC
tory is in this instance to talk non
sense. Has Mr.. Baldwin forgotten
that II tho Kaiser had but lifted his
finger, Emperor Francis Joseph would
never have signed the parchment
which precipitated the war between
Austria and Serbia?
Not only did he refuse to counse
peace then, but he egged Austria on
and defied Russia when the Car no.
titled him that, in the event OF wal
between Austria and Serbia, tht
treaty obligations between Russl'
and Serbia made it necessary for th'
former to espouse the cause OF thu
latter. This was not the simple ac
Of the Kaiser, or Of him and his mil
itary staff. The German people wer'
behind both then, are behind botl
now, and will be not only till the Kai
ser ia whipped, but until they ar
whipped. The very educational sys
tenn Of Germany has trained boys an
Girls alike to believe that they ar
superhuman, that one German ca
whip two OF any other people. The
nave been educated for war iron
their infancy. Not only Germany
= military leaders have justified war 10
conquest, but her poets, her puoi'
cists, her philosophers, have done lik'
wise. Has Mr.. Baldwin forgotten thu
Germany had an opportunity to ente
into. q treaty with the United state'
which 10 say the least would hav
held the United States from enter'n
the war for year longer? A treat
which was signed by some thirty oth'
nations, and which Germany herse
