The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1918-08-24

If we were an Anthony we would deliver
funeral Grafton such as the world has never heard
for we have in the picture above subject greater
than Caesars life and Caesars death. Here are
the murdered and the murderers. But it will not
take an Anthony to arouse mountain-high wave
of righteous indignation, nor will it take an An
thony to convict these murderers> beforeathe bar
of honest men and women. Pig
All we need to do is to look at the pictures.
We do not need an Anthony to draw aside the
snow-white shroud from the tiny bodies of these
dead babies and show to you the fearful blood
drained gashes through which their tiny hearts
were torn from their baby bodies. 'n
This picture of murdered babies brutaly
wrenched from the arms of French mothers in
French town taken by the HUNS, was sent to this
country by an American soldier fighting in the
trenches "over there" He and his American
brothers-in-arms retook this town from the HUNS
but not before the unspeakable HUN had opened
wide the hoodgates of his brutality upon the in
nocent inhabitants This American soldier saw
with his own eyes the bodies of these two babies,
bodies torn open in the most horrible manner,
and bodies that no longer carried within them
hearts which had beaten with the gladsomeness
of happy babyhood until the HUN came upon
them
We have heard of jackals, hyenas, rattlesnakes;
we have heard of all that is lowest in man and
beast, but not until this day have we looked
down into such fearful depths of depravity and
unhuman beastness. Why, fellow Americans,
we over here in safe security have not come to
a full realization of the awfulness of the HUN
conquered lands We have found it difficult to
believe that human beings can be so degraded, so
debauched, so heartless, as these HUNS have be-
come. They have been found guilty, beyond the
shadow of the slightest doubt, of sinking hospi-
tai ships, bombing wounded, Staying prisoners,
violating women numbering non-combatant citi-
zens. And now we have indisputable evidence of
this the most horrible crime which has ever been
charged against sane human being.
In their fendish cruelty, angered at the oncom-
ing allied troops and forced to give way, the
HUNS became beastial slaughterers of babies.
Into the sobbing, Twin bodies Of these innocent
children they drove their blood-red swords and
gouged out the throbbing hearts. And then they
threw the mutiated bodies, running crimson with
the ebbing Of their lifeblood, into heaps by the
roadside.
Then that there can be nothing more evil more
cruel, more loathsome in all the annals of crime
Their hearts-the hearts of these little babies
are not dead; they cry aloud to you, to all the
world Of civilized human beings for revenge, for
justice, for the punishment of their murderers.
What will YOU do MORE now than you were
doing before you saw this picture and heard this
story to bring to punishment the butchers who
cut out the hearts of babies?
To no Ofh IN NJ,
above, to the two men.
They are the murderers. They are the person.
ification of all that is evil. They are father and
son, emperor and crown prince of Germany, arch
foes of civilization, humanity, democracy and of
little babies such as these of the French village.
At the left is Wilhelm, kaiser of the HUNS His
sardopc, evil grin well portrays the desires rum

who engulfed the world in war, and who sent his
