He actually believes that he has Inherited all the great qualities of Frederick the Great and to those he has added the characteristics of At tllla, and NapoleOn, and Alexander, and other conquerors, until he really believes that he is the vice-regent of the Almighty on earth. He has lost the power of mental coordination. or the normal equipoise, and insanity is nothing more than that. He is con- centered upon one idea-that of world domination. He is most remarkable example of megalomania, which Web ster defines as "a form of mental alienation in which the patient has grandiose delusions concerning him. self. To this add his hallucination of world-power, his doctrine that might alone makes right, that any means is justified by the desired end, that war is natural expression of national con science, and that treaty obligations, however solemn, are merely scraps of paper, and the world has a combina- tion, has deluged the earth in blood and ravaged it. with ferocity which would have shamed Attilla's Huns of the red Indians of America.
 "But out of it all must come good for the world. It will be purified by the scourge, and democracy must tri- umph over autocracy, right must gain the ascendancy over might, and wars must cease. The readjustment will not come in our day, for there must be a reorganization of nations and govern ments. It will be slow process, for the rehabilitation of the ravaged coun- tries will require all the man-power and resources of many years. In the process of eternity, however, it is small matter, for the things that are great ot us are infnitesimal to the All-Power that rules the universe"

Deaih Reward of Hum Spies
 When kafSer'S Word Finished
Brutal Pitilessness of German System Disclosed bv Secret Agent-No Chan ces Given for Valuable h formation to Leak to Enemies

:. London, Jan. 3.-A person described as neutral secret service agent, and whose work has made him a Well- known figure in nearly every capital of Europe, is authority for some start ling disclosures of what goes on be- hind the scenes of the German Espion- age bureau. Most astounding of these disclosures are those which tell of the brutal pitilessness with which the German emperor treats the spies for whom the Fatherland has no furth ar use
 However valuable be the service a German spy has rendered to his or her country, they are never allowed to be pensioned off, nor spend the declining years of their. lives in peace. When ,the secret service has had all it can get out of them death is their in- evitable portion. And the reason why the kaiser murders his spies-morally, if not in actual fact-is not far to seek.
 The very nature of their calling puts them in possession of information the disclosure of which would be dsas-

The evidence is Conclusive. A re- markable corroboration, says the Bi- ble student, is the fact that "Wilhelm II" spelled with the Greek letters, pro- duces exactly the same result.
 Many remarkable combinations have been worked out, but it is believed this is the most remarkable that has been discovered. With the understanding that the kaiser is the Beast of proph- ecy the acts of the Beast, as recorded in the 18th chapter of Revelations, will be found wonderfully illuminat- ing.
 That "the mark of the Beast" is upon all the earth is evident to all as we enter upon the New Year. It is upon every home, every industry, ev- cry individual, not only in Arkansas, but in every community and nation under the sun. There is no escape from his contamination.
 That the kaiser is madman. many students of history and psychology are agreed. Col. George Caruth of Lit tie Rock, former United States ambas- sadnr to Portugal, asserts positively that the kaiser is nadman "Wilhelm was born with one of the greatest brains that modern Europe

It is practically impossible for a spy to communicate or preserve anything valuable ill writing.

By CLIO HARPER.

Little Rock, Jan. 5.-"The kaiser is half-lunatic and half-criminal," is the conclusion of an indictment against the Mad Mullah of Potsdam by Craw- ford Vaughan, ex-premier of South Australia, in an address in Little Rock recently. His arraignment of Wilhelm II was most terrific, and his declara- tion that the Hohenzollern will be the most execrated name in all history met with hearty approval on the part of his auditors.
 In this connection, a curious coinci- dence, or prophecy. was made known by a Little Rock Bible student this week that seems tO point to the kaiser as the "beast" of Revelations.
 Rev. 1918 reads as follows: "Here is wisdom. Let him that hath under standing count the number of the beast: for it is the number of man; and his number is six hundred three score and six"
 The number of the beast is there fore is 666. There are six letters in the word "kaiser." K is the eleventh letter of the alphabet, is the first, etc. The word may then be arranger as follows.

THE RULE OF THE BEAST.

Some have asked how the council of defense's
order banning the discussion OF charges OF pro-
Germansm and dsloyalty is to be enforced. Per-
hans Job W. Brinton, general manager OF the
Towney chain stores, has furnished the answer.
When Brinton, Immediately after his acquittal
in federal court on charges of sedition, walked
into The Tribune office asked for private inter-
view with the publisher and then, while the latter
was seated, seized him by the throat and struck
him vicious blow in the eye, rupturlng the eye
ball and fracturing his nose, he merely followed
the teachings of sn insidious propaganda winch
he and his cohorts have been injecting into the life
of this state for TWO years past. 1t was prac-
teal demonstration OF the rule of the brute; OF
Prussanism triumphant. 1t was prophetic OF
what may be expected by those who refuse to
bow their neck before the oppressor's heel when
the domination of Brntonism shall have been
made absolute -. - :.
None but the cowardest of ours, the yellowest
of hounds, the cheapest of low thugs would resort
to the tactics which characterized Brinton's act.
And his atrocious and unwarranted assault OF yes
terday was merely a new incident in a long series
of similar outrages :,
What can be expected of movement which
selects such men for it's leaders,? What can
be expected of state which suffers such
leadership? IT'S no crime to stir up class
against GLASS; Welcome words for Brinton. From
class hatred to the rule of the brute is but STEP
Brinton, in despicable assault upon man for
the moment defenseless, unprepared and unsus-
pecting, was carrying out his highest ideals He
was doing thing over which he and his associ-
ates could gloat He was acting as advance agent
for the rule which is to be when the entire state
shall have been Brintonzed and when the only law
will be the Drawn of the beast IL.
How long will North Dakota continue to suffer
such condition? Is the turning point at hand,
or are we to go on and on down the path toward
which the Brinton type are leading us, until we,
shall have arrived at complete state of anarchy
The rule of the mob!

slams! ~ = III.

off this cowardly yoke? Il s.
