The Kaiser and His God.

The German emperor appears to
suffer from religious mania which
projects his own character into his
imagination of deity. 1t is evident
from his words that the kind of god
he worships is unknown to modern
religion and unacknowledged by civ
ilized nations. The god of the Ho-
henzollern tribe or family it may
be, but it bears not the slightest re-
semblance to God, the Father of all,
who made of one every nation of
men 10 lvell en- all the face of the
earth" 1t is a. ferocious deity that
smiles On the kaiser out of his mir
ror. The following brief selection
from his sayings, we'll chosen by
Lovat Fraser, illustrates what pas
SEES in Emperor Williams mind FOR
religious thought:
Il represent Monarchy by the grace
of God.
"Only one is Master in the EN-
pire, and I am that one; / will toler-
ate no other.
You must all have one will, and
that is My will: there is only one
law, and that is My law"
If order you to shoot down. your
relatives, brothers-yes, even your
lpare1ts-you must obey Me without
murmuring-(S Speech to Potsdam
recruits.) /
The spirit of God has descended
upon Me because l am German Em-
peror. am the instrument of the
Most High. / am His sword. His
representative on earth. Woe aud
death to those who oppose My will!
Death to the infidel who denies Ny
missions Let all the enemies of the
German nation perish! God demands
their destruction-God who by My
mouth summons you to carry out His
DEGREES. - proclamation to army,
Sept. 10, 1914.)
II there is any shadow of blasphe-
my in these words the kaiser, we may
believe, is unconscious of it.-Bos-
