GERMANY is LICKED

No higher tribute could be paid
TO the fighting qualities of the
French army, says a war corre-
spondent, than the speech of a dy-
ing Prussian captain, who asked his
captors If he might be allowed to
speak to one of their officers. A
lieutenant belonging to a famous
Colonial division came up. and the
wounded man, propping himself
painfully on his elbow, gasped in
good French:
"I know we are enemies. but as q
professional soldier, want to tell
you I have never seen anything finer
than the conduct of your men. IN
fortunately for us, you will be in
Germany before Christmas but
Just the same want to congratulate
you. Will you shake hands with me
before 1 die?"

Socialism and KaiSeriSn,

II From the N. Y. Commercial
socialists in Germany, Russia,
America and other countries are do
ing their Kaiser's dirty work. Under
the guise of friends of freedom they
are striving to rivet the shackles of
autocracy and Prussian militarism
upon the free peoples of the world.
Their leaders work for blood money
and their activities are measured by
the cash they receive from the Beast
of Berlin.
In America a vast corruption fund
was raised by the German ambas-
sador through the sale of bonds and
notes countersigned or endorsed by
himself, of which at least fifteen mil
lion dollars have been traced by
American secret service agents.
Some parts of this fund is still in
the hands of the Kaisers secret
agents in the United States, and this
money is Forthcoming to pay the
lcosts of German and pacifist propa-
| ganda and to assist more or less
openly in electing socialists to Con-
lgress. Processing socialists are not
spending much money. They get il
somewhere and do not give it away,
but from some secret source any
enemy of the country can draw all
the money required to pay promi-
he is brought to book.
| In Russia the Red Terror is the
work of German hirelings. AS com
pared with it, the French Revolu-
| ton was a love feast. LouisXVI and
Marie Antoinette were executed after
a trial which was unfair out which
presented the outward form of a ju-
dicial proceeding. The Red Terror
lists of Russia murdered the former
Car and his heir in cold blood, and
1t is believed that they burned the
CZarina and her daughters to death.
They have slaughtered more inno-
cents in two days than were put to
death during the Terror in France.
No protests against these outrages
in Russia have come from the So
cialists of New York City, or at least
from those who control that faction
or who now support it's candidates
for public office. On the contrary,
they profess to admire Lenine and
Trotsky, and many of them knew
the latter personally when he was
living in this city. 1t is the duty of
every citizen with q vote in the Con-
gressional districts where Socialists
are candidates at the coming Con-
gressional election to let Russia
know that Bolsheviki are looked
upon as pariahs by all true Ameri-
cans and that we regard with horror
the crimes committed by their class
in Russia. One of their candidates
for Congress now stands charged
with violating the Espionage Act.
Debs, five times Socialist candidate
for the presidency, has been convict
ed of such crime. Socialism stands
revealed as the enemy of the plain
people and the subsidized supporter
of Kaiserism.

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER
lis the answer of the people of
America to the latest German
peace note.
Fight it out now" is the essence
of American thought, and to that
end the people OF this country-and
of all allied countries-are willing
to continue their sacrifices of blood
and treasure.
There must be no negotiations, no
haggling, no opportunity for Hun
trickery. If Germany wants an
armistice, the way to get it is to
lay down her arms, admit complete
defeat and throw herself on the
mercy of the Allies.
1t is a preposterous thought that
President Wilson should enter into
discussion with a government that
cannot speak the truth. 1t is uh-
thinkable that he should debate
terms of peace with a power that
even at the moment lis laying waste
with fire and sword the country
through which it's armies are re-
treating. We cannot make peace
with this beast until we have broken
its neck.
The Presidents inquiries as to the
meaning of Prince Max's note were
all very well, as intended to show
up the new" German government
before the world as a double dealer
and an imposter, and to divide Ger
man opinion at home. but it is be-
yond thought that, having succeeded
in his purposes, the President him
self should fall victim to the trick
cry ne has exposed.
America will never consent to a
peace that does not include restora-
ton and reparation for German dew
iltry in invaded countries and on the
high seas, heavy indemnities, guar
antees and an international court
martial for the investigation and
punishment of every German of high
or low degree, from the Kaiser
down, responsible for the war and
the inhuman and barbarous crimes
of which they have been guilty. We
must not-and will not-compro-
mise for an instant one iota of the
principles which we have supported
with the men and resources of the
country. We must not disappoint
our allies and those small nations
looking to the United States for
leadership in their aspirations fol-
complete self-government and JUS
tiee.
Militarism is in Its death throes
and the armies under General FocE
are administering the final blows
A little while and the blood and the
anguish will be over forever-if We
do not yield to the hypocritical wal
for mercy that has gone up from
Berlin, This is no time for foolish
sentiment, The fighters are decid
ing the issue. They have made tn,
sacrifices and they demand complete
victory.
The Presidents reply to the lates
peace move could be, and should be
summed up in two words:
UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER

unfortunately, it is not always
possible to ferret out men of this
stamp and give their names to the
public. But for all such there re-
mains the sorry knowledge that they
have proved themselves allies of the
Kaiser. They know that, so far as

from kaiserism. They are like the
soldier who thought he had per-
formed his duty when he. had shot

Germans must be kept at home.
Their hands are red with the blood
of thousands of helpless human De-

ing this war to break German rule

or extend it in any quarter.

DIR. HYMAN WIENER

T<HE death of DIR. Lyman Wiener
removes from the medical pro-
fession of Harrisburg a young
man of remarkable attainments and
high ideals. He literally sacrificed
himself to his profession. Althouss
he early realized the dangers of the
influenza epidemic, he continued
serving his patients until pneumonia
developed and in his rundown con-
dition he fell victim to the disease
he had helped so many others to
survive.
DR.. Wiener ranked high among the
physicians of the city, occupying a
place in their counsels far beyond
that ordinarily accorded a man of
his years. He was at once loved and
respected and his death leaves a
place among the medical practition-
ers of Harrisburg not easy to fill. He
was a young man of much promise
just on the eve of a great career.
