REPRODUCING THE
KAISER'S SPEECHES
London Newspapers Print Warlike
Utterances of Mr.. Hohenzollern

London, Nov. 13.-Prominence is
given By the British newspapers to
some of the utterances made by for
mer Emperor William while the war
was in progress. In the year 1914
he said:-
Before the leaves fall from the
trees we shall be back again in the
dear Fatherland. Exterminate first
the treacherous English and walk
over General French's contemplate
little army The war-like spirit still
lives in the German people.-that
powerful spirit which attacks the en-
emy wherever it finds him, regardless
of the cost.
"You, oh MY troops, are my guar
antee thai can dictate peace to my
enemies. Up and at the foes! Gods
goodness vii guide the German peo-
pie through battle to victory-to the
goal appoir:ed for the German people
by Providence.
81 have drawn the sword which,
without victory and without honor,
| cannot E:eathe again. We stand
with our hearts toward God. To the
dust with all the enemies of Germany.
Amen"
In The ycal 1915 the German ruler
said:-
"Our brave soldiers have shown
themselves to be invincible in battle
against lteaIly the whole world. The
war drama is now coming to its
close"
Regarding the United States, the
Emperor Gcclared:-
"Amerlca had better look out after
the war. i shall stand no nonsense
from the Americans. My destructive
sword has crushed the Russians. In
d short while l will announce new
victories. The war drama is now
coming to its close. In just cause
| am ready to force myself to be
cruel.
In 1917 the head of the German
nation said:-
eff the enemy does not want peace
then we must bring peace by batter
ing in with iron fist and shining sword
the doors Of those who will not have
peace.
"Victory i'll the coming year will
again be on our side and on that of
our allies. If only we cast the
/ burden on the Lord He will s1nitc
the foe hip and thigh, as He did
Amalek, the prototype of perfdious
England.
Our U-Eoats are not going to rest
until, with Gods help, the enemy is
beaten. With the help Of God, who
has hitherto eraciously protected US

it may be- ,s><,.

SEVEN KINGS HAVE GONE
Socialists Now Have Their Innings
in Germany

London, Nov. 14.-Al dispatches
from the Continent agree that all
the German kings, seven in number,
have gone, but dispatches from The
Hague, getting information not
through tie German censorship, re-
late many Incidents of Socialist fury.
Thus, in Rumelm, in Rhenish West
phalia, military uniforms were torn
off the soldiers. In Friershelm
fights occu red between the loyal and
the Socialist soldiers. The Social
lists disarmed the frontier guards and
parties of prisoners of war began to
organize and to start back for the
French and British lines without in
reference.
German republicans have banned
"The Watch on the Rhine" and
"DeutschIaEd uber Allies" War work
is Essen mas been stopped after some
fighting, but the loyalist soldiers
thereSwere few.
Excesses in Hamburg are confirm
ed. There was fighting there, and
some killings.

DELEGATES FOR
PEACE CONFERENCE
May Include Judge, Taft and Elihu
Root

washington, Nov. 1.-THE person
mel of the commission which will re-
present the United States government
at the Forthcoming peace conference
is being considered by the President
and the State Department has taken
up the task of working out the de-
tails of organization.
The report that the President will
go to Europe to attend the opening
meeting of the conference is without
authoritative confirmation. The Pre-
sident has received several invitations
to visit Europe and has been urged
by his friends and some of his adj
visors to accept them, but there is
nothing to indicate he has reached a
decision on the subject.
1t is the purpose Of the President,
so far as could be ascertained, to
make his selections of delegates upon
a non-partisan basis. 1t is reasonably
certain that Secretary Lansing will
be one of the commission, if he is not
made chairman of the American dele
SdI1OIl, dIIu SO1OIlcI Nl. 1IOOoC3 Cl11-
other. 1t also is probable that pro-
minent republican will be selected.
In this connection the names of MI.
Taft and Elihu Root are being sug-
gested Mr.. Taft, because of his
long advocacy of the establishment of
a league of nations to enforce peace,
would undoubtedly find himself in ac-
cord with most, if not all, of the Pre-
sident's views on the international
political situation. The President al
ready has shown his confidence in Mr..
Root by appointing him chairman of
the special diplomatic mission to Rus
sia at the time of the Kerensky
regime There is some reason for be-
lieving that with one or two excep-
tions the President will not go out
side of his own advisers in making UP
the personnel of the peace delegation

THE AUSTRIAN CRISIS IS PAST
RUSSIANS FREED
FROM BOLSHEVIKI
Peasants Hoping for a Reign of
Order instead of Terror

: With the American Forces in Nor
thern Russia, Sept. 18.-(Corres-
pondence Of the Associated Press y
Russian peasants in this district are
glad to be freed from Bolshevik rule.
"The Bolsheviks promised US that
we would have land and peace and
plenty" one sturdy old man said to
the Associated Press correspondent,
"but we seen learned what was their
real theory. 1t was just this:
Tonight l go over and steal your
cow and tomorrow night you come
and cut my throat and steal it back" P"
The peasa nts here are now settling
down TO what they hope will be order
and tranquility after long reign of
Bolshevik terror.
All along the roads here one finds,
in the evenings, peasants walking
back to their houses with little bags
of food, given them by the Allies.
Now and then they are given a can
of jam, a luxury even for the rich
in Russia low.
In ore village, which the Allies
had not vet had time to reach with
their food supplies, the correspondent
found one peasant family eating
swan, which they described as ex-
ceedingly tough.
at was a sacred bird with US be-
fore" one of the peasants apoloized,
"but We have no meat and the Boil
sheviks killed the fish in our lake
with bombs from their airplanes."
| The peasants are working willingly
under the kind treatment of British
and American Russian-speaking sol
diers. They were very glad to build
an aviation field, cutting down many
acres of thick timber, because they
were told the field would be theirs
for cultivation after the campaign.
