London, Nov. 26.-In q court of law the internal evidence takes prece- dence over the external. Now, when the Kaiser is awaiting trial before the world court, a short preliminary survey of his own utterances will give a line on the character and motives of the accused. For the present pur- poses we need not go beyond August, 1914, though his previous expressions are, to say the least, more pictur- esuue. It was long before the war that he said: "In Germany there is but one master, and that is I.'' Who ever opposes my will, him I will break" We Hohenzollerns derive our power by the direct imposition of divine authority''; and others of the celebrated sword -rattling adjurations now as obsolete as the crossbow and the catapult.
 Last June a Cologne publishing house announced two fat volumes de- voted exclusively to his messages and speeches in the previous three years and half. Not all of these are known here, but enough has come out of Germany to furnish a basis for this examination.
 In the main, one discovers in these utterances two dominant thoughts: Confidence in ultimate victory under the protection of "our old God, and grief over the devastation caused by B ruthless foe." The first was usu- ally accompanied, as recorded by The Times correspondent in 1916, with "a martial gesture which brought fierce smiles from the soldiers who heard him. The second often had as an accompaniment, in the words of the Berlin Lokal-Anzeizer, tears brinanaing from his eloquent eyes,

count among the highest deeds of fame In German history You are in the midst of the hardest struggle. The desperate efforts of the enemy will, as hitherto. be foiled by your bravery or that I am certain, and, with me, the entire FatherIand.', q
 Ten weeks later there was a. deep note of desperation in his speech when he addressed his soldiers in AL sace, saying: Neither the French nor the Americans will break through our front in Alsace-Lorrafne. We shall defend with the last drop of our blood these provinces which belong to us. and which the Almighty has intrusted us to administer as His stewards We are under divine protection
 That was on Oct. 8. Within thirty days the Kaiser had abdicated.

ual lessening of martial splendor ap- peared in the war-like appeal which finally reached a dinlinuendo. At the same time the grief that lies on my heart" Swelled ever up and up until, in September, 1918, in his letter to the Mayors of the Rhine cities, he broke into a veritable crescendo of crocodile tears as he lamented "the despoiling of the fair fields of France which she has wantonly forced us to visit upon her.
 That picture of France wantonly forcing Germany to despoil her is one of the masterpieces of the collection. It may be seriously doubted if any French master of the art ironic and satiric-Anatole France himself could surpass that.

 On Aug. 30. 1914, he addressed the troops in Belgium. Take Paris or die' was his ultimatum.
 Early in 1915 he addressed his troops in Lorraine, saying: We will be grateful to God that we have thus far the honor of being the instru- ments in the divine judgment which has come upon our enemies. Let the decision fall as it will. The hewing will proceed further until our adver- saries have had enough"

 On April 22, 1916, the Kaiser re- ceived 8 deputation Of Socialists and assured them that he sympathized with their aims.
 The Peoples Kingdom"
 Germany is the leading Socialist State,' he said to them. France has had Socialist Ministers who did noth ing to advance socialistic legislation while official Germany quietly nation allzed the railways, passed all insur ance schemes and factory laws and 1nterfered on behalf of the interests of the working class. It has now practically nationalized industry. Nothing remains to be settled be- tween the Government and the So- cIalsts except the question of pos session of power and if the Socialists had majority in the Reichstag or could create one with the aid of other parties nobody could prevent them IIoill SSLLng a. measure O1 ddlll1IlS- tratiVe power" There is note of prophecy in this utterance of thirty months ago!
 On April 7. 1917. the Kaiser coined his delectable phrase, "the peoples kingdom of tho Hohenzollerns," though he said "a far-reaching change of the Constitution must be postponed in the highest interests of the Fatherland until the time of the home coming of our armies and when they themselves are able to join in the counsel and the voting on the new order"

The Son Of Democracy.

''The Son of Democracy will be
shown on Friday at the Majestic
Theatre. You'll see "the man who

Chaplin, who in real life looks just as
he does on the screen, a living image
of the great President.
Authorities say that a mans life
governs his appearance, that if two
men think the same thoughts, take the
same exercises, have the same ideals,
they will look alike-providing of
course, that their bodies are similar.
Benjamin Chaplin is proof of this the
Dry. Nature made him tall and thin,
like Lincoln. But it was Mr.. Chapin's
devotion to Lincoln, his constant eff.

Ever since he was a boy in Bristol
