present that the great war is over
and that peace has settled down on
the whole world-that it will not be
safe to have the people Of any coun-
try oppressed hereafter. by kaiser,
King, or any any other ruler.
AT a business meeting Of the divan

about 2 o'clock in the afternoon of

left undone that an inventive mind

Germans, but now very common
citizen; and all just dubbed over

their hands.
