CONSIDER THE GERMAN PEOPLE.
- n - -

It is unfortunate that consideration of the
German government and military machine has so
often brought with it depreciation of the high
qualities of the German people themselves.
Here is race that if divorced from the false
gods of mitarism of power-seeking and world
dominion drilled into them by Bismarkism leaders
would we imagine, be akin to the law-abiding an6
civilization forwarding Swedes Dutch and Swiss
In the arts and sciences they have achieved much ;
in some branches of both they have led the world ;
in chemistry, for instance, they have led the pro-
cession by big margin They gave to the world
epoch-making reformers, composers with death
less fame, writer's who have influenced mankind.
Yet this intelligent nation has been tragcaly
misled-drawn to the abyss and kicked into it by
an autocracy such as the World has not seen since
the worst days of the Roman empire.
As President Wilson so notably said in his war
message we have no quarrel with the German
people. We enjoy much daily of what they have
given to the world. But we must rescue them
from the heavy and ruthless hand that is laid up
on them and upon civilization.
. This war has not been nstigated by one Napol-
con but by several. And as the peace of the
world century ago was finally attained by the
elimination of one Napoleon from the chess-board
of European battlefeds, so this world war will
only attain the duties the allies owe to civilization
when the half dozen or so modern Napoleons are
conquered.
