Only one thing in Chancellor Won
Hertling's speech interested Wash
ington officials. 1t was his frank and
open admission of the seriousness of
the internal situation in Germany.
Following SO closely the formal dec
laration by socialists the conditions
on which they will participate in the
government, his speech is regarded as
intended primarily for internal con-
sumption in Germany and part of a
plan to persuade the socialists to aid
the government in it's grave straits
by demonstrating there are no SUBJ
stantial differences between their
party and the government. Officials
decided, further. that there could be
no talk of peace until after German
and Austrian soldiers are withdrawn
or driven from occupied territory.

Nothing has been done so far to-
ward connecting the fire station with
the alarm in the city power plant,
which alarm is needed in order to in
form the waterworks and pumping
station of fire. 1t was owing to this
alarm not being in working order
that it was impossible to notify the
waterworks that water was needed at
the Hall fire over a month ago. We
understand that Manager Caldwell
says that the alarm is not loud
enough to be heard above the noise
of the machinery, and is therefore
useless. This is strange, as the alarm
is the same one used at the old water
works, the machinery of which made
much more noise than the new. At
any rate. if the alarm is not suffic-
lent, he should procure and install one
that is. We can't help wondering
what the insurance companies will do
to this town if the present condition
|of affairs continues. That they will
raise rates or refuse to insure is in
evitable.

ALREADY TAXED ENOUGH

Editor Star: / wish to thank you
for the fight you are making against
the proposed constitutional amend
ment to increase taxes. The taxpay-
ers of Ocala are now being taxed 16
mills for school purposes, 13 mills for
|all other county purposes and state
tax of nine mills. That is not all. A
heavy city tax must be added to the
above, and then taxes of the federal
government, and the hold-up of
profteers must also be paid. Are we
not already taxed enough? The rate
of taxation for state purposes has ins
creased Sd per cent since 1914, and
with few exceptions has the highest
tax rate of any state in the Union.
Two hundred thousand dollars as
sassed value of real estate in Ocala
has been abandoned so far as taxes
are concerned. Instead of having ii
confscated piecemeal, the owners or
former owners have turned it over to
the state. Will the addition of over
40 per cent to the school tax improve
| this. condition?
When the 1918 tax books open the
taxpayers of the Dunnellon district
will be confronted by tax rate of AZ
mills or SAB per thousand Will they
vote more taxes on themselves OF
will they thing 43 mills enough? Viii
the fifty thousand dollars assessed
value of real estate in that district
which has been abandoned to the
state, be increased or decreased?
am glad that you asked the per
tinert question as to who was pay
ing for this campaign to increase
taxes, and that it has developed thai
public funds have been unlawfully
used for this educational purpose

The Importance which the kaiser
and his leaders placed in public opin-
lon among the German people is clear
ly illustrated by the announcements
they made and the measures they re-
sorted to from time to time, for home
consumption.
When In December, 1916, for in
stance, the kaiser realized that the re-
sumption of unrestricted submarine
warfare, which he had determined
upon, might bring neutral nations, In
Guiding the United States, into the
war, he felt that 1T was necessary to
do something to- uphold the spirit Of
his people. 1t took the form of pro-
posal of peace to the allies.
This proposal was designed to &C.
complish two distinct purposes: First,
1t was to convince the German people
that their kaiser was really the peace
loving monarch he had always pro-
fessed to be; second, 1t was to demon
alize the allies by dividing them
against themselves.
This much Is certain: The kaiser
never intended the allies to accept the
proposal he made. He admitted that
much to me, as did also the
Prince Won Pless, his most intimate
advisor It was termed in such way
that the allies could not possibly &C
cept 1t. But 1t served one of the pur'
poses which 1t was intended to achieve
and nearly accomplished the other.

CHAPTER XVI.
Germany In Wartime.

While the German people have al
ways been In thorough accord with the
kaiser's ambitious project which Is SO
significantly described by the popular
slogan: Deutschland uber allies !"
when the great war, which was to
achieve Germany's aims, commenced.
it came almost as much as a surprise
to the Germans as 1t was to the rest or
the world. They knew it was inevi-
table and they looked forward eagerly
to der Tag" but when it arrived the
hustle and excitement, not to say
panic, which developed throughout
Germany was so pronounced that in
some cases it approached the ludicrous.
Obviously the people were kept in
ignorance of the plans of their war
barons in order that hostilities might
come as q complete surprise ito them
and give color to the governments
contention that the war was forced
upon Gegmany.
So little thought did we give to the
complexities of the political situation
that on Friday, July 81, 1914, my wife
and started off on a motor trip. We
had heard so many rumOrs of war
within the previous ten years that we
saw no reason why an amicable sOlu-
ton should not again be found as 1t
had always been before.
On our way out the Charlottenburger
Chaussee we passed the kaiser and the
kaiserin driving to Berlin from Pots
av.d
there were other indications of ac-
tivity, but we attached little impor-
lance to them.
When we reached Potsdam, how
ever, and saw thousands Of tons Of
coal heaped up between the railroad
tracks which were ordinarily kept
clear, we realized that preparations for
war We're being made in earnest and
we stopped to consider whether it
would not be better after all to return
home. Such was our ignorance Of war
that we decided that, even though it
were not advisable to motor in Bel
GUM and France, where we were
bound. we might safely plan tour in
| the Black forest in Germany.
We had left Berlin late in the after
| noon. In the evening, when we arrived
at Gotha, we found that the younger
walters In the restaurants and hotels
had already left and that the older re-
serves expected a general call the next
| day.
The next morning we started for
| Frankfort. As We passed through VIII
| lage after village, war preparations be
| came more and more evident. Measures
| We're being taken everywhere to arouse
| enthusiasm-young men gathered on
! school steps were singing. patriotic
| songs, students were marching and
/ speeches were being made in the mar
ket places.
] About five o'clock that afternoon we
| arrived in Frankfort. The whole place
was in a fever of excitement over the
/ mobilization posters and their resent
i ment against the French was being
! aroused by "extras," which were
handed out without charge. announc
| ing that the French had already
/ dropped bombs on the railroad at
| Nurnberg and that French officers in
/ autos had oyer-ridden the borders
/ The ridiculous statements about
French flyers dropping bombs on the
railroad at Nurnberg had not the
slightest foundation, OF course.
