in his breast on the left side just
below the heart. His mouth and
eyes were wide open, his left knee
raised and his right hand erect at

President Wilson, in one of his not
able state papers, differentiated between
the German government and the German
people. Gov. Graham of Vermont and
many newspapers have not recognized
this fine shade of distinction. The Lon
don Times takes issue with our chief
executive, and points out that the Ger
man people have allowed their govern
ment to do all of the things of which
our chief executive complains. There is
force to this argument, but it should
be remembered that the German people.
under the franchise as it exists in their
empire today, cannot exert their full
powers. If this war shall teach them
their rights and enable them to assert
themselves, it win be worth even the ter
rible cost which Germany viii be forced
