Come Back in the Morning"

Lancken then became persuasive-ssid that
it was most improbable that any sentence
had been pronounced; that even if it had, it
could not be put into effect within so short
a time, and that in any event all government
Offices were closed and that it was impossible
for him to take any action before morning
He suggested that We all go home treason
ally" sleep quietly, and come back in the
morning to talk about the case. II was very
clear that if the facts were as we believed
tteu to be the next morning would be too
late, and we pressed for immediate inquiry.
lad to be rather insistent on this point. and
De Leval, in his anxiety, became emphatic
that l feared he might bring down the
wrath Of the Germans on his own head and
t,ied 20 quiet him. There was something
splendid about the way De Leyal, Belgian,
With nothing 20 gain and everything TO lose,
stco cd up for what he believed 70 be right and
clivalrous, regardless of consequences TO
himself
Finally, Lancken agreed to inquire as to
the facts, telephoned from his Office to the
presiding Judge Of the court martial, and re-
t, rned in short time to say that sentence
had indeed been passed and that Miss Cavell
was to be shot during the night.
We then presented with ell the esrnestness
l. our command the plea for clemercy. We
pointed out 20 Lancken that Miss Cavells
offences were matter Of the past; that she
rad been in prison for some weeks, thus ef-
fcctuslly ending her power for harm; that
there was nothing to be gained By shooting
her, and. on the contrary, this would DO Ger
r.any much more harm than good and Eng
lano much more good than harm. We pointed
out 10 him that the whole case was a very
rad one from Germany's point Of view; that
tnt sentence Of death had heretofore been
imposed only for cases Of espionage, and that
Mss Cavell was not even accused by the Ger
man authorities OF anything so serious. Al
the time there was no intimstion that Miss
Cfvell was guilty OF espionage. IL was only
vi er public opinion had been aroused by her
execution that the German government be-
gan 10 refer to her as 'the spy Cavell." Ac-
coIding TO the German statement OF the case,
there is no possible ground for calling her
SPY. We reminded him that Miss Cayell, as
directress Of large nursing home, had,
since the beginning of the war, cared for
large numbers Of German soldiers In a way

No Martyr
nothing.

Though the title Of martyr Will doubt
less be claimed for Thomas Ashe, reported
dead as a consequence of self-starVatlon,
vet it is by no means clear that he was
in any manner victim OF persecution, or
even of extraordinary harshness, on the
part of the government.
Ashe, formerly national school teacher,
was arrested last year at Ashbourne, on
the occasion Of local rising timed to
coincide with the Sim Fem instruction
in Dublin. He was concerned in con-
fict in which two police inspectors, five
policemen and three civilians were killed
and sixteen wounded He was sentenced
10 death. but the sentence was subse-
ouently committed to penal servitude for
life. Eventually, he was released with
ell the other rebels under the general
amnesty order Ashes case was among
those cited by Lord Beresford in refuta-
ton of Mr.. Bonar Laws assurance that
n none of the cases concerned is there
evidence that participation in the rebel
lion was accompanied by individual acts
which would render such display of
c!emency impossible"
Ashe, like several others of the re-
leased leaders, began at once to stir up
trouble in Ireland, and was rearrested
two months ago for making a speech Zeal
culated to cause disaffection." 1t was for
this that he was tried by court-martial in
Dublin, one passage attributed to him be-
ing "that if he saw England overpowered
on the Western front he would have no
hesitation in calling ont his men, as in
Easter Week" His own explanation was
that he would prepare under such condi-
tons to protect Ireland against any pos
sible invader, be it England, France or
Germany, and he denied that his purpose
was to create disaffection.
For the rest he declared he would not
mind going to prison for a decent charge,
such as high treason or rebellion, as it
was an honor to suffer for Ireland; what
he did object to was the "irregularity' Of
the proceedings against him. 1t was pre-
sumably as protest against this "irregu-
larity" that he went on the hunger strike
which unfortunately proved fatal. The
claim to martyrdom is not clear.

The other women, like the other men, nave

one witness, however, speaking IN lhe
New Republic" on "The Morale OF Wom-
en-" We are glad to quote her words, as
thew seem TO us the most eloquent and just
cnoken on behalf of American women since
the war began. The writer, Dorothea
Brande. of Chicago, is replying to a pacl-
fist woman Of the platform:
But il is the telling climax which in
furiates me most, that invoking the agony
of childbirth to end at once the agony OF
war. The speaker is not a mother IN the
flesh. tie chairman said. but mother TO

with being a mother in the flesh, a forti-
tude and hardness that grow slowly
through long months of waiting. And II

more courage, perhaps, than the childiess'

sible to endure great discomfort, 10 LOOK

Holding these views, cannot hope to
represent the majority Of women, or even
to speak for all mothers. But at least
let il be recorded that there are countless
women who believe in our good falth IN
entering this war. who realize and hre

Which Is the Warlike Sex?

Are women the pacifist sex? Ever since
Hiss Jeanette Rankin cast her cele-
trated vote there have been males to cry
"Yes!" They point to Miss Jane Adams
(who did not sail on the peace ship and
ignore Mr.. Henry Ford (who did) and as
sumo, somewhat hastily for the reasoning
sex, that as Miss Rankin was the only
woman in Congress she must speak for all
women everywhere. For the ten men of
our acquaintance who have been converted
TO suffrage by the war there has been one
such protestant who has been strength
ened in his opposition.
Of course, statistics are not available.
There has never been n show of hands by
sexes en- the pacifist issue. Each man has
to look in his own home and his own circle
and Judge. But there is one interesting
fact. That is that in the countries which,
unlike America, really know what war
means, whose women have been tried by
fire and shown just what sort of stuff, good
end bad, there is in them, there is no talk
about women being the pacifist sex. There
was such talk in England before the war.
There is none to-day. There is none IN
France; there is none in Russia.
Come nearer home and try your theory
On Canada and see what you hear. Canada
is worth little detailed attention, for it is
most like America Of all the countries at
war. Pacifsm there is very much like
racifism here. 1t exists as an open but
minor vagary. If it follows the sex line
here it probably does there. Yet, what
does Sir Robert Borden, Premie. of the
Dominion, do when he wishes to enlarge
the vigorous war party, the voting strength
for CONSUMPTION, at the coming election?
He seeks to enfranchise the women rela-
tives of Canadian soldiers. OF course, he
may be q fool. But his record is that of
good politician. And there is no doubt
expressed in Canada of the efficacy Of
his scheme, as the opposition of the anti
Z conscriptionists shows. He is banking
somewhat, of course, on the desire of wom-
en- whose relatives are fighting to see the
relatives of other women share the risk.
But il women as lot are sentimental,
shivering pacihsts, hating war first, last
and all the time, these Canadian women
will scarcely have the stomach for meas
IRE that means war and more war through
to the bitter end, for their own men a..
! for others.
The war has only just begun TO come to
US in America. When we have lived with
! it for year or more we can Judge Ameri-
can women with more finalty. Meantime,
we risk the guess that our women will
prove to be not one bit behind our men in
courage and will to fight and all around

Refusal to Call the Emperor

We then brought up again the question OF
having the Emperor called on the telephone,
lat Lancken replied very definitely that the
matter had gone too far; that the sentence
had been ratified by the military governor,
end that when matters had gone that lar
"even the Emperor himself could no; inter-
yoEe' although accepted at the time as
tlue, this statement was later found 10 be
entirely false and is understood to have dis
pleased the Emperor. The Emperor could
have stopped the execution at any moment)
Despite Lancken's very positive statements
cs to the futility Of our errand, we continued
b appeal TO every sentiment to secure delay
emo time for reconsideration of the case.
TIE Spanish Minister led Lancken aside and
s6id some things to him that he would have
EesitGted TO say in the presence of Harrach,
Fglkcnhausen and Dc Leyal, a Belgian sub

time, went after Hsrrach and Falkeahaasen

winds, | remainded them of some Of tho
things we had done for German interests at

When we got TO the Political Department
", found that Baron Won der Lanckcn and
all the members of his staff had gone out to
spend the evening at one Of the disreputaole
little theatres that have sprung up here for

we were unable to find where he had gone, as

planned to him the situation as we under
stood it, and presented the note from the
minister transmitting the appeal for elem

presence, showing no feeling aside from Gym
zeal annoyance at something-probably our
having discovered the intentions of the Ger
en- authorities.
When he had finished reading the note
Lancken said that he knew nothing of the
case but was sure in any event that no sem
tence would be executed so soon as wo had

say annoyance, that We should give credence

ises to be the largest for many years, and
there's going to be big crop OF the grain in
