Germany Has Not Eccn Invaded, But
TT has been the stock argument Of the Gc"-

OF defensive" warfare, the enemy has not
reached the soil OF Germany; that her cities
have not been wrecked her fields have not
been ovcrrun and her people have been spared
the actual horrors of war by the Incompatible
vaior OF the German armies. This is true
perhaps, if the Russian invasion of East
Prussia and the French invasion OF Alsace

mcnt tells its people that their country has
been unscathcd by war, it must know that
il is not believed
Every dispat ch from neutral country tells
its own story Of German suffering. The Ger

reminds those people that they are without

victims OF disease, and that they have been

bolster up their courage, the German news

than accomplished ut time when GcrmaDyS

But when the German armies ceased to ad

and afterward, when it was erected into
a separate municipality and given all the
standing Of a separate county.
Prior to 1880 the city was ENLARGED
several times by simple act of the Lesis-
lature This could be done. because the
enlargement made no material difference
in the status Of the people in the annexed
territory. The people remained under the
same court Jurisdiction and about the only
difference to them was that they paid
municipal taxes, for which they were sup
posed to receive adequate benefits. But
by the annexation of 1888. which was
done in a constitutional way. and by the
Act Of 1918. those who were taken into
the city were removed from the jurisdic-
ton of their choice and placed in one re-
puenant to many Of them, and, in the
latter case. without having had an oppOr-
tunity to vote their assent or dissent
The county is now apparently at the
mercy Of the city. Whenever portion Of
suburban territory becomes well-built up
and attractive as taxing proposition. the
city can run line around it, provided il
can get an act passed by subservient
Legislature, and there will not be much
difficulty in the city controlling Leeisla-
lures hereafter There will be but little
encouragement for the county authorities
to expend much money in public improve
ments in a section which may be srasped
by the city at any time.
