 In dictating his confession Horn repeated a story which he had told previously, and which had set posses securing the Maine woods in search of "TOmmy," an imaginary Irish ac- complice. Horn said this man had met him on the Canadian side of the bridge, and had given him the explo- sives with which the bridge had been damaged
 When Horn had finished his con- fessiOn the officer to whom he had die tated it added this sentence, q cer- tify on my honor as a German officer that the foregoing statements are true"
 The officer then asked Horn to sign the statement. The German was non plussed. He fumbled the paper, ran his fingers through his hair, finally puohCO th0 COhlSOoIOu DctShy Si lAlCN sheepishly, and said, Tommy"
 "You mean" replied the officer "that it's all true except the part about Tommy" Horn said that that was exactly what he meant.

raise and educate your family" Then, when you received Uncle Sam's invi- tation, you thought the matter over something like this: Germany is my home, the land of my forefathers. My friends and relatives and everything I hold dear are here and here I have enjoyed the confidence of my friends. The kaiser, the weanay barons and the military rulers have always made laws to govern me and have seen to my necessities, so that I and my wife, my brothers and sisters, have always had work in the fields, wooden shoes on our feet, clothes on our backs, and plenty of coarse food to eat Our lords and masters have allowed us to provide for ourselves as we'll as they provide for their other animals, their horses and cattle, so that we will always be fit for work or war.
 A spell of gloom envelopes you as you ponder upon your environments and then a happy thought-a resolve to write to Uncle Hans in America to send you ticket to come.
 And then you came.
 Uncle Sam met you at the boat land ing, took you by the hand, saying: Fritz, we have been waiting for you Why did you not come sooner? 1 dis carded my wooden shoes and came over many years ago, We have got a job for you on the o.

 And now, MT. Foreign-Born Pro- German, Pro-Austrian, Pro-Bulgarian or Pro-Turk, I want to ask you, is not this logic true to life? Do you not realize that the United States is your government, that you have the privilege of helping to make its laws; that this is your new home and that you are in honor bound to help pro tect it? Prejudice means previous and unfavorable bias, as prejudgment without due examination. Are you prejudiced against the United States ? If so, cast it from you as unworthy of an honorable man. Come forth like brother, raise your voice in defense of this, your country.

GERMAN OFFICER TELLS OF PLGT
 AT VANCEBORO

Werner Horn, the German reserve officer who tried to destroy the inter- national bridge at Vanceboro, Me, was type of German that is all too seldom found. He had been led to believe by the infamous Won Papen that he was performing an actual mili- tary operation against an enemy of his country, and was told that by tying the German colors to his sleeve he was transformed from a criminal into a German officer on military duty.
 Further than that, he could not bring himself to sign his name to lie lon his honor as a German of ficer," and so his attempt to blow up the bridge led him into the hands of Canadian justice.
 Horns confession Is most inter- esting document. It appears in print for the first time in Worlds Work for April. The first paragraph reads:
 q, Werner Horn, after having been advised that my extradition to Can ada has been asked for by the gov ernment of Great Britain, and that anything that I may say will or may be used against me in an extradition proceeding by the United States or in a prosecution by the United States if it shall be found that I have vio- lated any of the laws of that coun- try, and that I may decline to talk at all or to answer any particular questions, do voluntarily, willingly and without any promises other than that my case will be dealt with by the United States fairly, impartially and in accord with law, make this state ment.'
 He then states that he was a Ger man lieutenant in inactive service, and that he was employed on coffee plantation in Central America when the war began. Two hours after the call to arms reached him he was on his way. He travelled to New York, back to Galveston, to New Orleans, and finally back to New York before finally giving up efforts to secure pas sage to Europe Tn New York he met Captain von Papen, who, by skillful lying, made Horn believe that 1t was his duty as a soldier to blow up the

 Oh, but you say, I am a German sympathizer or a German subject. Make no mistake, MT. Stacker. That means you just as much as a loyal American citizen. The kaiser would trust no man who had once enjoyed the riches and blessings of free America and learned the lessons of a free democracy, with no king and no master. And you most certainly would not enjoy immunity from the perils and deprivations put upon our fair land should the kaiser win this war.
 But stop a minute-listen, consider There is a more weighty reason why you should support Uncle Sam. This great country threw it's gates wide open and invited you to come to the land of milk and honey.

There was Joy at the downfall OF an

but there was fear that Russia would

Then followed the brief regime OF
Kerensky, when it began to look as
though freedom in Russia might be an
organized freedom, prepared TO ngrt

the Russian revolution as a blessing.
II had become absolutely correct TO
say that the war was war OF democ-
racy against autocracy. No pro-Ger-
man could longer point to the car,
whenever an argument arose.
Finally came the bolsheviki revolt
ton, in which Kerensky was over
thrown. Russian industry and Rus-
sian society were disorganized, and
Russian armies ceased to fight. The
kaiser's armies pressed on unopposed,
took what they desired in spite OF a
signed peace, and Russia appeared TO
be about to pass completely under con-
troll of Germany. America stood
aghast at the prank freedom had
played, and American opinion turned
largely against Russia, but thinking

Why We Fight
No. 5
Because Germany Menaces the
Freedom of the World and Russia
Can no Longer Resist
By CLARENCE L. SPEED
Secretary Of the War Committee OF the
Union League Club of Chicago.

Union League SIuD Oh oii4CSASO-
We are in this war with Germany
because it is q war for freedom more
truly than ever before was war
fought for the liberty Of man. In times
past. it is true, men have fought for
freedom from oppressors. Sometimes
thew have won and sometimes they
have lost. But always there has been
q place in this big world where those
who had lost in the struggle at home
might go and find a country where
they might enjoy the liberty they
loved.
Now all is different. If the forces
which are fighting for freedom IN TINS
war are defeated, there will be no
place in the whole world to which they
may go to find a refuge from Prus-
sian domination. Every land under
the sun will be directly or indirectly
under control of the victor; and II
the victor is autocracy, freedom per-
ish0s.
The land where freedom is most inn
minently menaced by the legions or
Prussian autocracy, at this moment,
fs the land where unwonted freedom
temporarily has run riot and has lost
the power to fight for itself-Russia.
We are fighting for the freedom OF
Russia, and must continue to fight for
1T until Russia learns what freedom
means, and is again able to fight. Ii
we do not, freedom will die in Russia
Prussian autocracy will rule and ex-
plot the country for its own benefit
and the very forces which overthreW
the car will be turned against the
freedom not only of themselves, but OF
other lands.
