'Ottumwa, Iowa.
The Internal Region,
June 2, 1917.
To Wilhelm Won Hohenzollern,
King of Prussia, Emperor of all Ger
many and Envoy Extraordinary of
Almighty God:
My Dear wilhelm: | can call you
that familiar name, for | have al
ways been very close to you; much
closer than you could ever know.
From the time that you were yet
an undeveloped being in your moth.
er's womb have shaped your destiny
for my own purpose.
Makes Her Blush
In the days Of Rome | created
rOugh-neck known in history as Nero.
He was a vulgar Fers0n and suited
my purpose at that particular time.
In these modern days a classic demon
and efficient supernatural was need
ed, and { S | know the Hohenzollern
blood, / picked you as my special in
strument to place on earth an annex
10 hell
Il gave you abnormal ambition,
likewise an oveTsupply of egotiSm that
you might not discover your own fail
ings. twisted your mind to that Of a
mailman, with certain normal tenden
cles to carry you by most dangerous
character placed in power. gave
you the power of a hypnotist and a
certain magnetic force that you might
sway your people.
Em5ittered BY Deformity
I am responsible for the deformed
arm that hangs helpless on your left,
for your crippled condition embitters
your life and destroys all noble i'm
pulses that might otherwise cause
me anxiety; but your strong arm is
driven by your ambition that squelches
all sentiment and pity. placed in your
soul deep hatred for all things English,
for of all nations on earth / hate Eng
land most. Wherever England plants
her flag she brings order out of chaos,
and the hated Cross follows the Union
Jack. Under her rule wild tribes be-
come tillers of the soil and in due
time practical citizens. She is the
great ciyiliZer of the globe and
HATE HER. l planted in your soul
a cruel hatred for your mother, be.
c;.use SHE was English, and left my
good friend Bismarck to fan the flame
| hicfnr1,
how we'll your work was done. 1t
broke your royal mothers heart, but
gained my purpose.
THE inherited disease Of the Hohen.
zollerns killed your father, just as it
will kill you, and you became the ruler
Of Germany and tool of mine sooner /
than expected.
Three Evil Spirits |
: ITO assist you and further hasten,
my work sent you three evil spir-
its-NietZsche, Treitschke and later
BernhaTdi-whose teachings inflamed
the youths Of Germany, who in good
time would be willing and loyal sub
jects and eager to spill their blood
and pull your ehestnuts, yours and
mine. The spell has been perfect
YOU cast your ambitious eyes toward J
the Mediterranean, Egypt, India and
the Dardanelles, and you began your
great railway to Bagdad, but the !
ambitious archduke and his more !,
ambitious wife stood in your way. !!
1t was then that | sowed the seed in !
your heart that blossomed into the 1.
assassination of the Duke and his !
wife, and all hell smiled when it saw !
how cleverly you saddled the crime !.
on to Serbia. saw you set sail for i,
the fjords of Norway end / knew you |
Ould prove an alibi.
How cleverly done so much like !
your noble grandfather, who also Sc
cured an assassin to remove old King
Frederick Of Denmark, and later rob- |
bed that country Of two provinces that
gave Germany an opportunity to be-
come a naval power. Murder is dirty
work, but it takes a Hohenzollern to
make away and get by.
Improved On Hades !
Your opportunity was at hand: +
you set the world on fire and bells !
Of hell were ringing; your rape on
Belgium caused much joy-it was the
beginning, the foundation of a per-
feet hell on earth, the destruction of
