HAVE LEAD IN THE PARADE
Keys of City, Which Germans Failed
to Get When They Captured Metz
in 1870, Handed to Mayor by
Premier Clemenceau.

Metz, Lorraine, Dec. 10.-After Civ
ing hearty greetings to the French
troops three weeks ago, Metz re-
ceived President Pioncare and repre-
sentatlves of every branch of the
French government.
The people of Metz looked upon IT
rs sort of official entry into posses

by the presence of vast throng that
continually cheered President Poin-
care, Premier Clemenceau, Marshals
Joffre, Foch and Petaln and Field
Marshal Haig and General Pershing
who were included in the official party
that assembled here.
The girls of Metz, wearing their na-
tional costume, were banked on both
sides of the street from the station to
the ESplanade. Behind them were
packed men and women carrying the
French flag and wearing artificial
tricolor bouquets in default of real

Gets Ancient Keys.
At the ceremony in the city hall,
Premier Clemenceau handed to the
mayor of Metz the keys to the city
which the Germans failed to get when
they captured Metz in 1870. The keys
had been preserved by descendant
of Gen, f. A. Lapasset, one of the de
Tenders of Metz.
A notable feature was the presenta
ton Of the baton of marshal of
France to General Petain, announce
ment of whose elevation TO the rank
of marshal was made last month.
The ceremony took place on the es-
planade In front of the statue of Mar
shall Ney. The one Hundred and
Thirty-irst regiment of the Thirty
third division of the American army
was drawn up on one side and the
famous French marines In front.
Other French troops formed the other
side of the rectangular space.
The American troops had the honor
of leading the line during the review
and The Star-Spangled Banner was
wildly cheered as the regiment
marched by In columns of eight in
fautless style. The marines of Dix
nude, whose fame had reached Metz
even during hostllities, provoked
fresh outburstS of cheering. as did the

When the stories of German atroci-
ties in Belgium first reached the
United States, many men were I'M
willing to believe them. Even now,
when abundant evidence is available,
some still doubt, and even question
the fairness of persons who have
been convinced. Yet, we must lace
the facts in order to keep our minds
alive to the real nature Of the con-
fict which we have entered.
To tell in detail the story OF Ger
man atrocities since August, 1914,
would be a long and painful task. The
evidence is open to everyone IN the
reports of numerous commissions, III
the testimony of Cardinal MERCER OF
Belgium, of other foreigners OF undls-
puted standing, and OF our own min
listers and ambassadors to the coun-
tries affected by the war, This evil
dence is supported by the diaries or
captured German soldiers and the
proclamati0ns of German officials.
These documents have been subjected
to the closest examination by experts
trained to deal with testimony OF this
kind. There can be no doubt as to
their truth. And the more the Ger
mans have tried to justify themselves
the more they have convicted them
selves by the acknowledgement of
deeds which they can only excuse I'M
der the pretext of "self-preservation a"
1t will be enough to describe briefly
a few of the crimes committed against
unarmed citizens to show that the
spirit of a German army OF invasion
is one of ruthless cruelty and intimi-
dation.
Germany has repeatedly used I'M
armed men and women as screens 20
protect her soldiers. The proof of
this comes from all the invaded coun-
tries. Cardinal MERCER testifies that,
AT the time of the invasion of
Belgium, civilians in twenty
places were made to take part in
the operations of war against
their own country. Peaceable
citizens were forced to march in
front of German regiments to
make a screen before them"
German military leaders have or
dered the burning and pillaging of
towns and villages, sometimes because
of the acts of individuals, sometimes
in mere ruthlessness. To cite one in
stance from Tic uIotl VI Oh oL1COl III
a Saxon regiment:
THE pretty little village of
Cue d. Ossus was apparently set
on fire without cause. A cyclist
fell off his machine and his rifle
went off. He Immediately said he
had been Shot at. All the inhabi-
tants were burned in their homes.
| hope there will be no more such
horrors"
Germany claims and practices with
)ut mercy the right to take prominent
citizens and hold them captive in or
der to protect herself from attack
from the civilian population. Numer-
Gus proclamations of German officials
give proof beyond question. AS part
of the system of ''frightfulness' these
hostages have been repeatedly mis-
,yeated by German officials. In the

MONKEYS LOVE FOR YOUNG
Mothers Practically Devote Entire
Lives to Their Babies and Fond
ness Knows No Bounds.

Monkeys are born in almost as help
less a condition as are human beings.
For the first fortnight after birth they
pass their time in being nursed, in
sleeping and in looking about them.
During the whole of this time the care
and attention Of the mother are most
exemplary. The slightest sound or
movement eycites her immediate no.
tice, and. with her baby in her arms.
she skillfully evades any approaching
danger by the most adroit maneuvers.
At the end of the first fortnight the
fittle one begins to get about by itself,
but always under its mothers watch
full care. She frequently attempts TO
teach il to do for itself. but never for
gets her solicitude for its safety. end
at the earliest intimation of danger
seizes it in her arms and seeks a place
of refuge. When about six weeks old
the baby begins TO need more substan-
tial nOurishment than milk and is
taught To provide for itself The moth
er's fondness for her offspring con-
Sinues; she devotes all her time 20 its
comfort and education. and, should 1t
meet with an untirhely end, her grief
is so intense as frequently TO cause her
own death.

HE FAILED TO VOTE
ON ESPIONAGE BILL

On May 4, 1917, Congressman Len
root was recorded as mot voting on
the espionage bill, a measure which
provided means for unearthing and
Furnishing German propagandists and
others who were engaged in destruc-
ton of American factories and manu-.
facturers. Mr.. Lenroot was not paired.
Mr.. Lenroot voted for the immigra.
zion bill. He took little part in the de-
bate. Later he took a prominent part
in the debate on overriding President
Wilson's veto of the bill. He attacked
the president for his action.
On January "a, 1916, Mr.. Lenroot
protested against congress appropriat.
ing $25 100000 for the building of
good roads He wanted the bill amend.
ed to provide that no money should be
spent for good roads that year. His
excuse was that there was no money
in the treasury, although Mr.. Gordon
at the time, called his attention to the
fact that there was surplus of $40,.
100000 in the treasury the day be.
fore.
On April %, 1916, Mr.. Lenroot voted
against the agricultural appropriation
bill because it had the cotton futures
act the warehouse act, and the grain
naturalization act as riders.

Germany's Plan for World Power
BY FREDERIC AUSTIN OGG Professor of Political Science
University of Wisconsin
Published deeon OF State

! But there are stronger proofs. One
of them is the meddlesomeness of the
Berlin government. The Kaiser once
remarked that nothing must go on
anywhere in which Germany does not
play part" For long time before
1914 the Empires staggering, saber-
rafting habits kept all Europe in fear
of the terrible thing that finally hap
pened. More than ence-as when the
| Kaiser's government tried to form a
coalition of European nations against
us in 1898 to prevent our going to the
relief of Cuba-our own country has
| felt the sting of this German desire to
have hand in everything.
But if any one still doubts that the
| German purpose was to rule at all
costs let him consider the Empires
record in army and navy building, and
| its attitude toward the reduction of
| ornaments From the days of Bis
marck, every interest was subordina-
ted to the ends of military efficiency.
AS late as 1913 the although
already much the largest in western
Europeans increased at stroke by
$4,000 men. Beginning in 1898, gi-
gantic navy was built up, with a view
so men in high position freely said
to Germany's future control OF the
seas.
Furthermore, the Kaiser's govern
ment persistently blocked all pTopos-
ais for reduction of ornaments. In
ternational conferences were held at
the Hague in 1899 and 1907 to discuss
this subject But Germany both
times prevented action. Her delegates
at the first conference declared that
big ornaments are mot burden but
privilege" and shortly before the
second the Kaiser told King Edward
VII Oh England that he would go 10
war rather than allow disarmament
to be discussed. English proposals in
1912 and in 1913 that the two powers
take a holiday" from navy-bullding
for one year met no response.
Here is a striking fact. In the
spring of 1914 representatives OF Great
Britain and Germany signed treaty
settling all territorial disputes be-
tween the two nations on terms so
favorable to Germany that leading
German imperialist writer, Rohrbach,
was moved to pronounce the treaty
astonishing" and to add that it met
every reasonable demand. Yet Ger
many was not satisfied, and within
six months had dragged Europe into
war.
She knew, as all the world now
knows, that the international arrange
ments at which she was aiming were
of such a character that no nation
could be made to accept them until !
brought to its knees by force.
Macmillan Harden, the most fear
less of German editors. knew whereof
he spoke when he wrote, in Deem

City Election.

Let us reason together. To
morrow, Tuesday, is the city
election, the day on which
our people shall indicate at
the ballot box whom they
shall have to govern us for
the next two years. 1t be-
hooveS the voter to select the
very best men on the various
tickets for the various offices.
Party does not cut SO much
of a figure in municipal affairs
as the right men whom we
know will intelIigently carry
out the wishes of the people,
with the exception of the So
cialiSt element.
Wausau is one of the prom
inent cities of our state. The
men at its head should be
those whom we can point to
with credit who will be pro-
greSSive and yet keep within
the bounds of reason, and eS-
pecially these trying times of
war, we must have those in
whom we have placed con-
hdence.
If tn oSe who are looking
forward to having men of this
stamp govern this city for the
next two years, they must not
only get out and vote, but
must also work for their cleo
ton. If let go by default,
there is great danger of the
socialists winning out. Dc
