Great Kaiser's Ghosts.

The imagination of the veteran d.
plomatist Jules Cambon has summoned
forth suggestive reason for the Kaiser
dismissal of Won Bethmann-Hollweg:
One thing is certain, and that Is that
Emperor Wilhelm wanted to get rid of
man who trailed after him unpleasant
recollections of the days preceding the
war.
Was the presence of the chancellor
reminder OF the last important truth
told by the Prussian government to the
world: that the treaty holding Belgium
inviolste was to Germany q scrap of
paper, deserving no more reverence? If
1t was, then Q ruler with q conscience
might we'll have kept about him the
man who made frank confession OF guilt.
In that day of shame when Belgium was
invaded Bethmann-Hollweg alone among
the Junkers admitted the shamefulness.
But what one mans departure can
eliminate unpleasant reoollections"9
These ghosts will walk until Wilhelm
goes. Surely the MANNED and blind will
not be kept from Inter den Linden.
Surely the names OF Liege and Louvain
will be spoken, though by accident,
within the royal hearing. Perhaps the
words "Csvelr' and "Lusitania" will be
smotbered at court, but can they ever BE-
forgottenP
What nation of the earth can ever be
mentioned in Williams presence with
out recalling by association some black
minuteP Can court talk of art with
him who destroyed 1t, of music with
him who stifled q continents song, OF
civilization with him who tried to tram.
pie it, of truth with him who fang her
out, of life with the master of lethsl
scienceP
Looking down, be will see his own
hands; looking out, bis sons long, sp-
palling face. Looking In, there will be
the hideous parade of what NJ. Cambon
SO delIcately calls unpleasant recoL
lections." 1t was not the loneliness at
st. Helena that was frightful but the
reckless crowd-of msmories.-New
York Sun.
