The American casualties now az
gregate about forty thousand and still
growing. The German military lord
are asking for terms of peace. Afte
starting the war and after ignorini
every principal of honor and ever,
sentiment Of humanity seek for term
of peace. The Kaiser and his assoc
ates in crime know they have forfeiter
the respect and confidence of the civ
lized world and if they had their jus
dues they would be tried before
military court for murder and If con
victed should be lined up and shot a
warning to the world that such high
handed crimes and ambitions cal
never again occur. When the pre-
sent Emperor ascended the throne o

such job and for this reason the IA

rage put him out of Office. To shor

he addressed his troops In this mai

your arms in such a way as that fc
a thousand years no Chinese will dar
to look at German. Take no prisoI
ers. Show no mercy. Be as terribI
rs 'Attila the Hun" So 1t appear
that the Kaiser gave the same nan
to his soldiers q he has himself. II
