Notice to Subscribers.

After January 1st the price of
the Independent will be $500.
The publisher now sees that it is
impossible to run the paper at
81. so a year, not alone to make it
pay at that price, but to make
ends meet. 1t is either $500 a
year or cease publication, and we
will try the increase in price.
Those who pay up before January
LIST will pay the old price of $3.50,
but after January 1st the price
will be $500. Everything that
one needs in the shop and home
has more than doubled in price
and if the publisher should want
to come out as formerly, the price
of his paper would have to be not
So. 90, but at least So. CO. per year.
Every newspaper in this state as
well as other states. has raised the
price. We urge our subscribers
to take advantage of the old price
before January 1st.

Kaiser Tried TO Unite Europe
Against Anglo-Saxon Peoples
Rhenish Wespl,aan Gazette Reveals Attempt to Form
League of Russia France, Germany and

will be driven to the conclusion that
the kaiser did his level best to bring
about a Russo-German agreement and
to include France. Even at that time
the kaiser fully appreciated the fact
that the Anglo-SaNon world was the
enemy of the European continent, and
that England would move every pos
sible lever to prevent such a funda-
mental continental agreement as the
kaiser had in mind.
Our kaiser's plan was majestic, and
If it had proved successful would have
insured the peace of Europe for a gen
GRAFTON. for If the entire European and
Turkish world had been united in such
an alliance. from Russia to the Pyre-
nees and from the Baltic to the Persian
gulf, all of England's jealousy could
not have altered tho fact that this
alliance would have been invincible
1t is not the kaiser's fault that his
efforts failed. His plan was defeated by
the unrelia bility OF the Romanoff and
by brilliant English diplomacy. which
produced an understanding among
England. Russia and France.
I'VE establish thus the fact that
Kaiser Wilhelm took such an infinitely
serious view of his responsibility as
did actually strive by every means to
be a peace emperor. British trickery
and Russian dishonesty defeated his
plans.
Yet. Americanlike. Wilson has the
insolence to tell the German people that
the allies are not fighting against the
German people. but desire to free them
from the intolerable pressure of Hohen-
zollern tyranny. This insolence of the
ex-professor. now in the pay of the
American trusts, must find such a reply
among the GermaD people as shall show
our mendacious enemy once for all that
all hopes of opposition between the
kaiser and his people are more than
foolish" :"
