CONDITIONS IN GERMANY

The German people are no nearer
masters OF themselves than they
were before the change in the minis
trv. for no equal manhood suffrage
will confer on them such mastery.
As the Richmond rme&-l1ispatch
observers, their behavior in the storm
that has just PASSED makes it evident
that there will be no popular German
revolt now. Thee is not Il sign That
there is a Patrick Henry, 4 Danton
or Kerensky among these phlegmaIlc
and in many ways excellent people.
Matthias Er2berger is not even a
Carl SchurZ. The German people are
without leaders because they have
not the soul Of freedom in them. They
can produce chemists and organizers
and materalistic philosophers like
Ernst llaecke!, but they arc impotcnt
TO breed Wilson's. Lloyi Georges and
hibots. They are too proud. OF their
science, OF this state organism and
..kultur" to lie individuals.
Germany is today passing through
~ fiery furnace to evolve this MAJ
yiduaiism so as to join the democ"a-
