big car scattered bombs on the camps
and sprayed its machine gun on the men

vocated by the military men Of the
German empire, by their philosophy
era and professors who are IN the
employ or under the control Of the
military autocracy. The ideal OF
the House Of HohenzoIIern Is now. as
IL has been, that OF acquiring more
territory, Of extending the boundaries
OF the German empire for selfish aE-
grandizement. The Allies have ad-
vocated disarmament OF at least the
limiting OF armament and securing,
through international tribunals, the
settlement OF international disputes
such az was the case az The Hague
tribunals; hue tho military autoc-
racy Of Germany desires TO continue
ornaments and has been in oppoM-
ton to a reduction thereof as was
manifested in the international con-
ferences held in 1899 and 1907. The
ideals of the German empire have
produced q great military power. a
militaFism which has practically re-
suited in military slavery and pro-
NOTED the desire of tbs military
leaders 10 extend the boundaries OF
the empire and continually enlarge
the powers Of the military autoc-
racy."
I'm studying the lives of the rulers
of the German empire, one can cas-
ily see that they consider themselves
the masters and viii tolerate no
others. They feel that the German
empire should become as world
wide as was once the Roman empire
and that they have been, and are
now chosen, TO rule the world.
American democracy on the other
hand holds its chosen heads TO be
the servants of the people instead Of
their masters, and that IT is their
duty to make this q country, one
in which all shall be given fair and
equal opportunities to attain the
highest and greatest success Of which
they are capable.
Duties to Young Men.
The governor also referred to the
duties that we owe 10 the young men
who are going TO the front TO fight
for US and to fight for the great
cause in which we believe, TO fight
for the ideas and ideals of the Amer |
lean republic and for the advance
ment and the liberties OF humanity |
The boys who are going forth in |

do for them and that the least that
any Of us can do Is to show loyalty
10 the nation in whose behalf they
are going forth, and loyalty to the
;ause for which they are fighting.

he cause for which they are con-
