The Japanese.

According to the talk of the German
diplomats before the war the expecta-
ton was that Japan's power would be
used against America at the first op-
portunity. Whether the object of this
campaign was TO stir up trouble be-
tween japan and America or only to
awaken this country to sense of the
danger which the Germans professed
to believe threatened her l don't know.
l do know, however. that prospect Of
Japanese-American war seemed to
worry the Germans considerably more
than 1t worries us.
The day England declared war
against Germany, August 8. 1914. the

which we shall gain control of the con

pemocracy's Worst Enc my.

The great military machine which
the kaiser had built up during the first
20 years of his reign "for tho purpose
of maintaining peace" was constantly
itching for war. There was q feeling
among the militarists that while 1t
was all right for the kaiser to assume
the role of the "Prihce OF Peace" dur
ing the period Of preparation, 1t was
possible to everyday the part. He so
frequently referred to the fact that
his sole purpose in maintaining large
army and navy was to maintain peace
thnt the war lords of Germany began
to fear that perhaps he might mean 1t.
The murder of the Archduke Franz
Ferdinand, the successor to the Aus
TRAN throne, and his wife by Ser
bian on June 20, 1914, gave Germany
the excuse for which she had been
waiting so long to start European
conflagration and found Austria as
anxious for war as her ally.
But even had Emperor Franz Joseph
shown reluctance TO plunge his nation
into war and had Austria refused to
chastise Serbia for the murder of the
Archduke doubt very much whether

The Kaiser. confidence Of Victory

The Kaiser's Confidence Of Victory.
About twelve years ago l attended
the German military maneuvers at
Liegnitz, in Silesia. having been in

sentatives of England, France, Amer
lea and other countries were there
with the kaiserss staff to witness the
display of Germany's military power.
Apparently they were very much i'm
pressed, for l heard afterwards that
one of the French officers who had
been present had written book in
which he said: with such an army,
Germany could annex France in six
months !"
/ happened to mention this fact to
the kaiser shortly afterwards and his
significant comment was:
six months! l should hope so. II
wouldn't take that long!"
The confident belief that when "Del
Tag'-''the day'--finally arrived, Ger

only by the kaiser but by the peopl.
generally and their conduct when tn,
war broke out clearly disclosed 1t.
When Germany's man power wa.
mobilized no one in Germany believed
it would be very long before the.

Indeed, one of the principal things the
kaiser hoped to accomplish by prose-
