There Is No Longer
 Any Fear of Germany

GS frightens governments which heretofore have walked warily and carefully avoided giving offense. Amid the horrors of war, it is amus- ing to watch the gathering courage of those who formerly esteemed dis cretion the better part of valor.
 A recent dispatch from London be- gins, "Nobody's afraid of Germany now" The provisional government of Esthonia, formerly a Russian prov- ince, has demanded" the evacuation of German troops and the release of political prisoners; Russia, with a thrifty second thought, refuses to pay any more indemnities to Germany and lactually halted third installment on the way to Berlin. The Bavarian king dom, to use homely expression, is "feeling it's oats" and the King of Ba-
 
 varia is reported desirous of succeed ing Wilhelm as the "All Highest" Leaflets advocating a separate peace between Bavaria and the allies and the establishment of peoples gov ernment if the royal family refuses to act are being circulated. A cap- tured German officer recently com plained that Bavarians were making most uncomplimentary remarks about Prussia without anybody showing a disposition to shut them up.
 It is reported that the principality of Liechtenstein and the Austro-Hun- garian crown land of Veralberg will ask the Swiss federation to let them become a part of Switzerland. All German mercantile vessels interned in Chilean waters have been seized by the Chilean government. There is a great ferment among the little peoples of the earth who are raising their heads from the dust and |clamoring Justify to be heard. It is la good sign. It means that autocracy has had its day.
